Chapter 361 Chen Shengnan's Engagement



Jiang Lan's face turned pale with fright; she hadn't expected Jiang Jin to hear it.

She hurriedly explained, "No, that's not true. We were just talking about sow breeding."

Looking intently at his second sister as if he were seeing her for the first time, he said, "Second sister, you're already married and have two sons. You've been staying here every day, and I'm sure your mother must be missing them. You should take them and move away from here tomorrow."

When Jiang Lan heard that she was to move out, she immediately became unhappy; "No way, you have no right to make me move out. Even Mom and Dad haven't said anything."

Jiang Jin gave her a mocking smile and said, "Fine, then we'll wait for Mom and Dad to come back and talk about it."

That evening, the atmosphere at the dinner table was heavy. Jiang Jin, growing weary of his meal, casually asked, "How long will Second Sister be staying with us?"

He said this while looking at the two elders.

Jiang's mother smiled and said, "Our house can accommodate everyone. Your second sister can stay as long as she wants."

Looking at his mother, who had been kind all her life, Jiang Jin said, "Mom, think it over before you speak. If she continues to live here, my brother and I will move out."

Jiang Weigang wanted to say that he had never said such a thing, but his wife grabbed his hand tightly under the table.

It was as if she would really crush his hand if he dared to say a word.

Therefore, Jiang Wei, who is usually a nice guy, didn't say anything.

The mother looked expectantly at her eldest son, hoping he would persuade the fourth child.

But she was destined to be disappointed, so she looked at Jiang Lan again.

"Lanlan, why don't you move back home for a while?" Although she felt sorry for Lanlan, her two sons were adamant about not moving out; she had to choose the lesser of two evils. Lanlan immediately burst into tears, feeling wronged: "Mom, you don't know that it's raining heavily outside and drizzling inside that house. And it looks like it's about to collapse. It's completely uninhabitable. Are you really willing to let me go back?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang's mother looked at her husband and said, "Shouldn't you say something, man of the house?"

Jiang Fu: Normally, no one asks for his opinion on good things, but when it comes to things that might offend people, they start calling on him to be the head of the household and let him speak.

Judging from Xiao Si's condition, if the second brother doesn't let them go back, the family will fall apart.

After thinking it over, he said to Jiang Lan, "Take the child back. A married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl. Look at the third son, he only comes home to visit us and never stays here for long. Your mother has given you a lot of financial support over the years, so you should think about our family too."

Jiang Lan looked at her eldest brother, wiping away her tears, and said, "Brother, please say something! You really want the three of us to go back? You know our house, I'm okay, but how will the children live there!"

"I...I..."

He only managed to utter two words before his wife had already pinched the flesh of his palm raw.

He simply couldn't continue speaking, so he shut up.

Jiang Lan was genuinely angry; everyone wanted her to leave today.

"Fine, I'll leave, I'll leave, okay!" she roared.

As she spoke, she walked towards her room while crying. Before she even reached her room, she collapsed to the ground.

Fortunately, Lan's eldest son, who was in the room, reacted quickly and stepped forward to support her. He is twelve years old this year and knows a lot about things.

He roared at the crowd, "Do you know that Mom has been sick lately, and you even tried to kick her out? How heartbroken she must be! You are all her closest relatives, how could you treat her like this?"

The group was rendered speechless by what the child said.

Jiang Lan's youngest son is nine years old this year. When she saw her mother faint, she rushed over, and at that moment they also realized what had happened.

The mother glared at her youngest son: "Look at this, if you hadn't caused all this trouble, would your sister have gotten into this mess?"

As she spoke, she pinched Jiang Lan's philtrum.

Jiang Jin remained seated, not moving. Jiang Lan's illness was not a reason for her to harm him.

In any case, my second sister can no longer stay in this house.

She even dared to drug her own brother; she might become even bolder in the future.

After the person woke up, Jiang Jin stood up and walked over to Jiang Lan, saying, "You're sick. Rest at home for a few days. You must move out of this house on the first of next month."

At this moment, Jiang Wei's wife looked at her husband's younger brother and truly felt that he was the real man. Then she looked at the man beside her. He was a pushover, just like his mother, and it made her angry.

Just as he thought of him, he saw Jiang Wei say to Jiang Jin, "Hey Xiao Si, are you even human? Your second sister is already like this, and you still have to bring this up now? If you ask me, you should let..."

Before he could finish speaking, his wife pinched his ear, saying, "Why do you talk so much? Will you die if you don't talk? Are you just showing off?"

Jiang's mother saw that her eldest son was so useless, completely controlled by his wife.

She could only speak to her youngest son, saying, "Your second sister is sick. How about we just let it go? They've lived here for so many years, and I'm used to it. You're always away at the army base, and having your second sister at home makes me feel better."

He insisted, "No, if you two old folks prefer to live with her, then we'll separate. From now on, your daughter will take care of you, and my brother and I will give you five yuan a month. How does that sound?"

To be honest, the ten yuan the two brothers give them each month is already quite a lot; it's enough for their living expenses.

If they really make that choice, he will support it, but he and Shengnan will try to come back less often, or not at all.

Jiang Lan didn't want to take care of these two old people in the future. Although ten yuan was a lot of money, she just wanted to make sure her eldest brother and fourth brother didn't separate from the family.
