"Our eldest house was separated, and I didn't expect that my aunt would be the first to visit us."
"Wanwan, we are a family after all. I know you don't want to separate. After all, if we separate, your family won't be able to take care of you as well."
Jiang Wan's red and swollen eyes could not be faked. Obviously, she also knew that once the family was divided, their good days would be over.
The eldest brother has always put the Jiang family first. Now, in order not to implicate the Jiang family, he asked to split the family, which is indeed in line with his style.
She originally had some doubts in her heart, but now they have dissipated a little.
She was too suspicious. She was just an illiterate country girl. What plans could she have?
The past was just a coincidence.
After all, people will bite when they are forced into a corner.
Jiang Wan's eyes were still red and she lowered her eyes.
"Wanwan, it's not too late for you to regret now."
"You can't marry into Mr. Liang's family, but I can find another marriage for you."
"Wang Zhubo of the county government has a nephew who has been married for many years but has no children. He is now looking for a concubine who can bear children. Wanwan, if you marry one, you won't have to worry about your mother's illness..."
"My aunt said it so well, why doesn't she go herself for such a good thing?"
Jiang Yue's face darkened instantly, "Jiang Wan! I'm doing this for your own good!"
"For my own good? Does my aunt really think I'm stupid? Wang Zhubo's nephew is clearly a drunkard. When he gets drunk, he beats and scolds his wife. I don't know how many lives he has taken!"
"My aunt keeps saying this is for my own good, is this how she does it for my own good?"
Jiang Yue didn't expect that Jiang Wan actually knew about Wang Zhubo's nephew, which was beyond her expectations.
"Even so, marrying him will ensure your family has no worries for the rest of their lives."
"That's enough! No matter how bad I am, I won't let my daughter marry into a den of wolves! Jiang Yue, don't mention this matter again!"
Jiang Zexing had a dark face. Jiang Wan had been out for a long time and had not returned yet. He was worried so he came to check on her, but he didn't expect to hear all this.
Jiang Yue's face turned pale. This was not the first time that Jiang Zexing had refuted her, and it was all because of Jiang Wan.
"Brother, I'm doing this for your own good."
"I can't afford this kind of goodness!"
"In that case, big brother, take care of yourself from now on."
Since they don't listen to your kind advice, they should not regret it later.
After Jiang Yue left, Jiang Zexing glanced at Jiang Wan, feeling a pang of sadness. "Wan Wan—"
"Dad, don't take my aunt's words to heart. Let's go home first."
The thatched house at the foot of the mountain had not been lived in for a long time, and pieces of thatch on the roof had fallen off in bits and pieces.
When I opened the dilapidated door, dust flew in my face.
Jiang Wan raised her hands and patted him twice, "Dad, your leg is injured, go sit over there for a while."
"No, I'll clean it up."
He is the head of the family, how can he just sit aside and let his daughter clean up?
"Dad, do you want to make your leg worse?"
Although his leg wasn't injured, if he continued to toss it like this, not only would his leg not heal, it would become disabled sooner or later!
"Please sit down first. I'll pack up and we'll go get Mom."
Although he said he was sitting down to rest, Jiang Zexing was not idle either. The door frame and roof of the thatched house needed to be repaired, and Jiang Wan definitely couldn't do it alone.
He started to weave the hay beside him, and soon the messy hay was neatly placed on the ground.
Jiang Wan worked quickly and cleaned the room thoroughly, but she had no idea how to clean the roof.
However, it has been a drought and it hasn't rained for a long time, so there is no need to repair the roof in a short time.
"Girl Jiang——"
As soon as Jiang Wan went out, she heard a sound coming from not far away.
Looking closely, it was Cheng Renming, followed by several young and strong men.
"Village Chief Uncle?"
"Village Chief, why are you here?"
Jiang Zexing also quickly stood up from where he was, but was stopped by Cheng Renming.
"Jiaxing, your leg is injured, just sit down."
"When you split up and came here, I knew the roof here was broken. Now your family can't fix it, so I brought a few people here to see if I can help."
"Alright, stop standing there and go up and fix the roof."
Jiang Wan put down the broom in her hand.
"Village Chief, thank you so much. My father's leg hasn't healed yet. If it weren't for you, we would have to use the sky as a blanket at night."
"We're all from the same village. There's no need to thank me. I can't help you with anything else, but I can still do this."
There is strength in numbers. The village chief brought three young and strong men, and the roof was quickly repaired for the most part.
The wall around the yard is also well-maintained and can keep people out.
But that door... I need to find a bigger piece of wood and make a new door frame.
The current gate can only barely keep people out.
"Village Chief, thank you so much for coming today, uncles and aunts. I'll definitely treat you all to a meal once my family is settled!"
"No, no, we're just fellow villagers, just helping out."
Jiang Wan responded with a smile, but she had a plan in mind.
When life gets better at home, she plans to thank them properly.
Jiang Zexing looked at his daughter who was at ease, feeling a little strange and guilty at the same time.
"Wanwan, thank you for your hard work."
"Dad, don't think too much, let's go pick up Mom."
The other side
Su Yun was lying on the bed, his face pale.
Jiang Li stood by, and thanks to the pregnancy-preserving medicine that Jiang Wan had brought back earlier, Su Yun's condition became much more stable.
