Mother Jiang never thought her daughter would agree to stay.
"Ningning, I'm so happy that you can stay. Don't worry, Mommy won't be greedy and let you stay for too long. I'll be satisfied if you can stay for one night."
She loves her daughter so much, and her eyes are full of love when she looks at her daughter.
Even Jiang Mengning was shocked when she met this kind of gaze.
I was also very touched.
This mother is so kind.
"If I have the chance in the future, I will come back to see you." She said comfortingly.
Mother Jiang was even happier.
"Okay, okay, my daughter has really grown up. She is so sensible now. Mom is very happy for you."
"Ningning, you must be tired after this trip. Sit down and rest for a while. I'll go cook something delicious for you."
Originally, there was not much food at home.
They just returned to the city, with no income and no savings. In order to survive, they had to rely on picking up garbage and selling it.
It just so happened that Mr. Jiang brought back a lot of things yesterday, which saved them from starving.
It also allows Jiang's mother to have ingredients to make delicious food for her daughter.
Otherwise, she would be embarrassed to let her daughter stay.
She couldn't bear to see her daughter having to eat coarse food with her.
Mother Jiang hurriedly prepared dinner.
The stove built outside was kicked by the old woman just now.
Mother Jiang was getting anxious and angry, and she took great pains to rebuild the stove.
The stove is just a few stones glued together with mud, very simple.
The cooking pot at home also has a chip on it.
Mother Jiang's frail figure squatted in the corner, carefully building the stove.
I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to handle it well and wouldn’t have dinner.
This look makes me feel inexplicably sad.
Huo Jinyan glanced at Jiang Mengning, as if observing her reaction.
After a moment, he walked out.
"Mom, let me do it!"
He squatted beside Jiang's mother and took the stone from her hand.
The man's strong arms carried the heavy stones effortlessly. For him, building a stove was like something he was used to doing and it presented no challenge at all.
Mother Jiang was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses.
She still felt a little guilty when facing Huo Jinyan.
After all, my daughter had used dishonorable means to marry him.
Although that was Grandpa Jiang’s idea, Grandpa Jiang is also a very important member of the Jiang family!
We can’t just say that it was Grandpa Jiang who did something wrong and that it has nothing to do with their Jiang family!
She looked embarrassed and stared at Huo Jinyan's profile for a long while before she spoke: "Jinyan, I haven't had the chance to apologize to you seriously all this time. I'm so sorry! Our Jiang family has dragged you down."
In such a turbulent era, how many people would look down on and slander a military officer with a good family background and marry the daughter of a capitalist!
Maybe, because of this relationship, he has no hope of getting promoted in the future.
Mother Jiang must feel guilty.
In this life, she owes nothing to anyone except Huo Jinyan.
Huo Jinyan didn't even raise his head, and didn't even stop moving his hands.
His voice was steady, neither anxious nor impatient: "Mom, let's not talk about the past. I'm living a good life now."
The less he cared, the more uncomfortable Mother Jiang felt.
There was another thing that she had always kept in mind.
Her daughter and son-in-law have been married for two years and don’t even have a child. This must be because the son-in-law has something against his daughter and doesn’t want to have children!
She couldn't tell her son-in-law about this, so she had to find an opportunity to talk to her daughter.
In one’s life, getting married and having children are big things, none of which can be missed, otherwise, life will not be perfect.
Her son-in-law is a very nice person. She really likes him and is very satisfied with him.
It is a blessing for my daughter to marry him.
Jiang Mengning stood at the door, watching the scene outside.
I have to say that Huo Jinyan is really a role model among men.
Even though he married a woman he didn't like, he still didn't forget the filial piety of a younger generation to his elders.
And he never has negative emotions and never brings up past events.
In their marriage, he has always been the one who endures and remains silent.
Jiang Mengning sighed.
Why!
What a wonderful man!
In fact, marrying such a person is really nice.
Thinking of this, there was indeed a hint of admiration in the look in her eyes when she looked at Huo Jinyan.
It wasn't the kind of purposeful teasing I had before, but I really was kind of falling in love with him.
But it was only her personal admiration and appreciation for him, not to the point where she would risk her life and give up everything for him.
There's still something missing in between.
As for what it was, she couldn't explain it clearly.
Maybe I didn’t feel it yet!
"Hey, why did you build the stove here? I told you this is my place, don't you have any shame?"
The old woman from the neighboring house was staring at what was happening in the Jiang family from the window. She was very angry when she saw that the stove that had been kicked over with great difficulty was being rebuilt again.
She definitely couldn't let anyone occupy her territory. Originally, each household had many people, but the houses they were allocated were only a tiny bit small. Now the land was very valuable, and people would fight tooth and nail for even a square meter.
Old Mrs. Song was a person who would not suffer any loss, so she immediately opened the door and rushed out.
Just now in the room, she didn't see Huo Jinyan from her perspective.
When he got closer, he saw that the man in military uniform was still there, and not only that, he was helping to build the stove. He immediately panicked.
"Who are you? Why are you helping to seize other people's territory?"
