Chapter 93
Brother Xu Zhao?
Jiang Suihan repeated it silently in her mind and looked up at the person who was speaking. She was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. She was wearing a white knitted long skirt and a dark red woolen coat. Her long hair was tied up, revealing her full forehead. Her skin was a little rough and a little dark yellow, and a smile was raised at the corner of her mouth.
It seems that he is coming with bad intentions.
"Hello, who are you?"
Qiao Hui stood up and looked at Jiang Huihan. "My name is Qiao Hui. Brother Xu Zhao and I grew up in the same compound. I heard that Brother Xu Zhao came back last night. I happened to be free this morning, so I came to see him."
She has liked Xu Zhao for many years, since junior high school. Before that, she always thought that Xu Zhao liked another girl in the compound and that this love could only be a secret crush. Later, that girl married someone else, and she realized that she had misunderstood. She went to Xu Zhao with full confidence to confess her love, but she was hit hard by him. He rejected her mercilessly.
She had been on many blind dates over the years, but she would always subconsciously compare those men with Xu Zhao. After comparing them over and over again, she still felt that Xu Zhao was the best and could not let him go. She thought that as long as she was patient and waited, Xu Zhao would like her one day.
However, things did not go as she wished. Xu Zhao got married, but the bride was not her.
Last night, after hearing from her grandfather that Xu Zhao was back, Qiao Hui tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep. The next day, after breakfast, she immediately asked someone to go to Xu's house with her. She wanted to see with her own eyes what the woman who made Xu Zhao lose his mind looked like.
The moment she saw Jiang Huihan coming out, her heart skipped a beat. She thought that Jiang Huihan had given birth to a child and had to take care of the child and take care of a lot of housework every day. She must be seeing a woman with a haggard face and dark complexion. Her sister-in-law used to be good-looking, but after she gave birth to a child, she also became an ordinary woman.
The woman with a slender waist and fair skin in front of me is Xu Zhao’s wife?
Qiao Hui felt cheated. It turned out that the cool and handsome Xu Zhao in her mind was just a vulgar man, no different from those stinky men, who liked beautiful women.
Jiang Suihan secretly complained in her heart, calling Xu Zhao brother all the time and growing up together in the same compound, wasn't it obvious to her that they were childhood sweethearts.
I don’t care whether you are white lotus or green tea.
Jiang Suihan smiled lightly, but it didn't make people feel rude: "Hello, Comrade Qiao, I'm sorry for not greeting you well. I'll leave you for a moment. I'm going to have breakfast first. You guys can chat slowly."
That's the reaction?
Qiao Hui did not expect Jiang Suihan to be so calm. According to a normal woman's logic, when she returned to her husband's house for the first time and met her husband's childhood sweetheart, shouldn't she be on guard and say harsh words?
"Not eating breakfast is bad for the stomach. My sister-in-law is a good cook. She gets up early every morning to make breakfast for the family. Aunt Su is the best. She finishes everything by herself early in the morning. I envy her so much."
I envy you for having such a good mother-in-law. You don’t have to do anything. ”
Jiang Huihan raised her eyebrows calmly and mocked her in front of her for being lazy and sleeping so late.
By the way, what's this woman's style?
Although she didn't think Qiao Hui posed any threat to her, it was still annoying to have her buzzing in her ear like a fly.
Jiang Suihan smiled and said, "I also feel that I am very lucky to have met such an understanding mother-in-law. She knows that I can't get up in the morning and never scolds me. She lets me sleep more when I don't get enough sleep. Anyway, there is nothing to do at home."
After a pause, she asked Qiao Hui with a smile: "From the tone of Comrade Qiao's voice, is your mother-in-law not treating you well?"
Qiao Hui bit her back teeth and said, "I'm not married yet."
Jiang Suihan looked surprised for a moment. Qiao Hui looked quite old, and it was rare for a girl to be still unmarried at the age of 27 or 28.
Her imagination ran wild. Could it be that Qiao Hui was waiting for Xu Zhao so much that she hasn't gotten married yet? If this is true, Xu Zhao has truly committed a sin.
"It is said that marriage is a woman's second life, so you must be extremely careful. If you haven't met the right person, it is better to wait until later than to settle. After all, you are not going to spend your whole life with the person you are with."
Qiao Hui didn't expect that some of her thoughts were similar to Jiang Huihan's: "What about you? Are you and Xu Zhao just making do?"
Jiang Huihan was not surprised that Qiao Hui knew the reason why she and Xu Zhao got married, and smiled and said, "No."
Qiao Hui saw the tenderness in Jiang Suihan's eyes, which made her feel even worse. She didn't know where the impulse came from: "But I think you are."
It seems that as long as Jiang Huihan and Xu Zhao are together reluctantly, she still has a chance.
Jiang Suihan said without a smile: "I don't need your feelings, I only need my feelings."
It will be bright with a little sunshine. She should not be polite to the man who is trying to steal her away. She was just too polite and thought she was easy to bully.
Jiang Suihan ate her breakfast slowly, and when she finished, the guests in the living room had already left.
"Mom, where's Chenchen?"
Su Ying sat on the sofa and ate melon seeds: "The old man took him out to play, and Xu Zhao's friends came to look for him, and he followed them out."
Grandpa Xu and Xu Zhenguo both wanted to take Chenchen to show off in front of their old friends. This was their wish for two years. Grandpa Xu won the first place as the elder. After breakfast early in the morning, he happily held Chenchen in his arms and began his journey of showing off his baby.
Su Ying was in the kitchen just now, and she didn't know what Jiang Huihan and Qiao Hui talked about.
When Qiao Hui came to visit in the morning, she felt a little nervous. Most people in the compound knew that Qiao Hui liked Xu Zhao. As soon as Xu Zhao came back, Qiao Hui hurried to his house. Her thoughts were self-evident.
Su Ying wanted to explain to Jiang Huihan, but was worried that if she didn't explain clearly, she would make things worse. After thinking about it, she decided to wait for her son to come back and explain himself. The trouble he caused should be solved by him.
In the evening, everyone was there. After dinner, a group of people played with Chenchen in the living room.
Chenchen is an active child. He is interested in everything and wants to see everything. The originally tidy and clean living room was made a mess by him alone. The cabinets were opened and the things inside were turned out and thrown on the ground at will.
Jiang Suihan had a headache. She had taught Chenchen about this little habit many times and finally managed to get him over it, but when he returned to the capital, he returned to his old ways.
"Chenchen, what did mom tell you at home before?"
Chenchen was holding a small gourd pendant in his hand and was about to throw it away. When he heard his mother's words, he looked up and saw his mother's face was very ugly.
The child immediately and gently put down the small gourd pendant, raised his little face, and smiled at his mother in a flattering manner. That expression clearly said, see, I didn't throw it away.
Jiang Huihan said with a straight face: "Mom taught you before that you can't throw things around. You have to put them back where you took them out. Chenchen is a good boy. You can do it, right?"
Chenchen puffed out his chest and nodded: "Chenchen is a good child."
Grandpa Xu and his companions just watched Jiang Huihan educate the child without intervening. If the one educating the child was Xu Zhao, they might have said something, saying that the child was still young.
Don't be too strict, you can teach slowly.
Chenchen used his short legs to pick up things one by one. It didn't matter whether he put them in the right place or not. Jiang Suihan just wanted to teach her a bad habit of not littering. She had to put everything back to its original place, which was too difficult for a child under two years old.
Su Ying saw Chenchen running around and gasping for breath, so she hurriedly took a towel to wipe the child's sweat and poured a glass of water for the child to drink.
After drinking the water, Chenchen held the cup and walked unsteadily. Everyone looked at the child with interest.
Su Ying stopped Chenchen from touching the thermos, fearing that he would get burned: "You can't touch this. Chenchen, tell grandma what you want to do? Grandma will help you."
Chenchen held up the cup: "Water."
The child is still young and does not speak fluently, often uttering only a few words at a time.
Su Ying picked up the thermos and poured some water into the cup. Chen Chen saw that there was not much water in the cup and said, "More."
Pour a little more, about half a cup of water.
Chenchen held the cup in her two little hands and walked to Jiang Huihan step by step without spilling the water in the cup: "Mom, drink some water."
Jiang Suihan looked at the child's bright and clever eyes and guessed at a glance that the brat was worried that she would hit him, and he poured water for her to please his mother. He was so young, but he had so many thoughts, and no one knew who he looked like.
Just then, she was thirsty too, so she took the cup, drank the water in it, and patted the child's head: "Chenchen is so good, great grandfather and grandfather are thirsty too, Chenchen, can you help me pour some water?"
After getting his mother's praise, Chenchen's mouth opened even wider and he happily continued his task of pouring water.
Su Ying said with a smile: "Chenchen is so filial. He knows his mother is thirsty at such a young age, so he pours water for her and also pours water for his great grandfather."
In the eyes of his grandmother, his precious grandson is the most beautiful and adorable, well-behaved and filial, and glows with golden light.
Jiang Suihan was silent for a moment and decided not to reveal the child's real purpose of pouring water, so as to let the elders indulge in the lie of the child's filial piety.
At night, Chenchen's grandparents strongly wanted to sleep with their precious grandson. After Chenchen got familiar with his grandparents for a day, Jiang Suihan saw that the child was not averse, so she simply let the child sleep with them and sent the milk powder and bottles over.
Jiang Huihan took off her coat and lay down in the warm bed. When she was drowsy, Xu Zhao also lay down in the bed.
He stretched out his hand to hold her waist: "What did you do at home today?"
Jiang Suihan: "I met a very interesting person today, a lesbian."
Xu Zhao didn't realize at this point that he had dug a hole for himself, and asked nonchalantly, "Who?"
"Qiao Hui." Jiang Huihan did not hide anything and looked at Xu Zhao with a half-smile. "She told me that you and her were childhood sweethearts and have had a very good relationship since you were very young. Tell me, how good is your relationship?"
Xu Zhao was stunned for a moment before he realized who Qiao Hui was.
"Are you jealous?"
Jiang Suihan rolled her eyes at him and said, "I don't have the time. A lesbian has come to my house, so I have to satisfy my curiosity."
Xu Zhao tapped her nose and said, "Boys in the compound don't like to play with girls. I don't know her very well. I seldom see her after graduating from high school. I only see her once or twice when I go home during the Chinese New Year. What did she say to you?"
Jiang Huihan pinched Xu Zhao's ear and said, "She didn't say anything. She's already in her twenties and she's still not married. What sin have you committed?"
Xu Zhao felt that he was quite wronged. During the winter break of his freshman year, he went home and Qiao Hui found him and suddenly said that she liked him. He rejected her on the spot. He thought that the matter was over and Qiao Hui had given up, but he didn't expect there would be a follow-up.
What are these things?
Jiang Suihan glanced at him and said, "You have nothing to say."
Xu Zhao smiled: "I smell a lot of vinegar."
Jiang Suihan twisted his arm and said, "Yes, it still tastes like chili. How about making you some chili and vinegar noodles tomorrow?"
Put a bowl full of chili and vinegar in it and see if you can still eat it.
Xu Zhao: "I still like beef noodles."
Jiang Suihan yawned: "Okay, I want to eat beef noodles tomorrow."
Xu Zhao touched her face and said, "Are you sleepy? Go to sleep."
Jiang Suihan yawned again. She felt particularly sleepy these past few days. Could it be a side effect of riding the train?
