"Sister, why didn't you let me refute you just now? It was obviously not your fault!"
Sitting in front of the window, feeling depressed, Jiang Li was a little confused.
"Brother, do you really think Grandpa will listen if you refute him?"
"Look, Grandpa hasn't even really asked for the truth of the matter. He's obviously already pinned the blame on me. No matter how much we talk, it won't help."
"Even if something does happen, the only ones I'll blame are us."
Jiang Wan knows the Jiang family best.
"So we can only swallow our anger and accept it?"
Jiang Li still felt unbalanced.
"Of course not, it's just that we have to take it slow."
When they walked into the room, they saw Jiang Zexing sitting in front of the bed. After they came in, his expression straightened.
Jiang Wan took the initiative.
"Is Father trying to tell me to be more restrained?"
"Wanwan, we are a family after all. Your grandma and aunt are our elders after all. We should be as accommodating as possible."
"Besides, you are a junior, and it will be bad for your reputation if this gets out."
He sighed.
"Father, at this point, do you really think that if we tolerate them more, they won't come after us?"
"We used to be tolerant in everything, but look at my mother and my younger brother, they are still lying in bed."
"If I hadn't made such a fuss today, I'm afraid you would be looking at my corpse in a few days!"
Having said that, she had to speak more emphatically.
Jiang Zexing has a deep attachment to the Jiang family.
After all, this is the place where he was raised, and he can't let it go for a while.
"Wanwan——"
He opened his mouth, but Jiang Wan had already turned her head away and placed her hand on Jiang Hao's forehead.
No fever, the condition is relatively good.
"The child's mother—"
He turned and looked at Su Yun again.
Su Yun pursed her lips and didn't look at him, tears welling up in her lowered eyes.
Although she married him because she was alone, she also valued Jiang Zexing's ability and hard work.
I never thought that this would happen.
"It's my fault. I'm incompetent and I made you suffer."
Jiang Wan suppressed her sadness and didn't look at him, for she was worried that she would become soft-hearted.
Today, we must make Jiang Zexing's heart open.
"Ayun, Wanwan, don't worry, I will definitely protect you from now on."
How can it be that simple?
Jiang Yue alone will never give up.
However, as long as Jiang Zexing is on their side, things won't be too bad.
next day
As soon as Jiang Wan went out, she met Old Zhang.
She was under the eaves of the door, staring at her intently.
She grinned.
"Good morning, grandma."
"You little bitch, what do you mean by early? The sun's out and you're already lazing around. You're like a maggot on your butt! Hurry up and cook. It's your turn to cook during this time."
When she saw her, Mrs. Zhang started cursing.
"And that traitor Su Yun, he's been lying in bed for days, why doesn't he get out and work?"
"Mom, Ayun is still injured and can't get out of bed—"
When Jiang Zexing heard the voice, he hurried out of the house and smiled apologetically at her.
“Ahhh—”
Old Mrs. Zhang spat fiercely and then started cursing.
"You're such a weakling, letting someone hold you in such a position. Why did I give birth to such a useless thing like you?"
"You really think you're the daughter of a landlord. You just lie in bed when you have a minor illness. You're just lazy and need treatment!"
"If you want to live the life of an official's wife, you have to be lucky enough to do it! Having a little girl with a scabby appearance at home ruins all your luck."
Jiang Wan naturally heard that she was making a veiled criticism.
"Grandma, Grandpa came back very late yesterday. I guess he's still asleep. Aren't you afraid of waking him up by making such a loud noise?"
"As for how my mother was injured? You know it very well. Why don't you pay for her medical treatment? I guarantee that she will be alive and well in a few days."
“Ahhh—”
"What the hell, you're still trying to get medical treatment for money? Do you really think your body is precious? It's just a minor illness, there's no need to see a doctor!"
A sharp gleam flashed in Jiang Wan's eyes.
"Grandma, don't worry. When it's our turn to do the work in the eldest house, we will do it."
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang felt a little relieved.
Then Jiang Wan was seen walking towards the kitchen.
The Jiang family was not poor, so having enough food was not a problem, and they could even eat white flour from time to time.
As for the meat, Mrs. Zhang hid it all and gave it to her twin children, a boy and a girl.
Jiang Zeshan is now in the academy, and she has hidden all the delicious food at home and given it to Jiang Yue.
But she knew where it was.
He skillfully found the meat from the porcelain jar in the corner, took out a knife and started chopping it, then mixed it with fine white flour.
Soon, a rich aroma of meat wafted through the yard.
"It smells so good, what delicious food did you make this morning?"
Uncle Jiang came out of the house, twitched his nose, and looked at the kitchen.
Xie Ying and her daughter also looked envious.
Jiang Anfu sniffed his nose.
"Are we eating meat this morning? Didn't you say there was no meat at home?"
He picked up the pipe skillfully, lit it, and took a comfortable puff with the aroma of meat wafting in the air.
Old Zhang's eyebrows twitched, and she thought of something. She jumped high and rushed out without even having time to put on her shoes.
"What are you doing, you little bitch?"
When she saw the scene in the kitchen, her eyes almost popped out.
