Chapter 142 My mother's brother is my uncle
He really knows everything.
After a few simple conversations, Jiang Tang confirmed her inner guess, smiled happily at Fu Sinian, and nodded, "I have seen them. My father, my mother, and my eldest brother, they look different than before, but they are all doing well. I know you have been taking care of them on my behalf all these years, Fu Sinian, thank you."
Fu Sinian looked at Jiang Tang with sincere eyes. Even in the dim light, that look seemed to penetrate people's hearts.
The man who was fine before was now a little embarrassed. He raised his hand and rubbed his high nose bridge with his knuckles.
He said, "Your family is my family too. We are all one family, so we should take care of each other. What I can do is still not enough. For the time being, I can't let them leave the village."
Fu Sinian also explained, "Tangtang, I didn't deliberately hide it from you and prevent you from seeing them. I was afraid that you would be sad and upset after seeing them."
Fu Sinian's words were still euphemistic. Jiang Tang thought to herself, if it was the original owner instead of her who saw the plight of Jiang's father and mother in Hongxia Village today, with the original owner's unruly temper, she would definitely have a big quarrel with Fu Sinian and hate Fu Sinian for making her parents suffer.
Fu Sinian was probably afraid of these things, so he never mentioned them.
"Don't worry, I understand." Jiang Tang magnanimously forgave Fu Sinian for his concealment and told him about what he had seen and heard in Hongxia Village today. "...When I came back this afternoon, the tractor that had been working fine suddenly stopped starting. Several people tried to fix it but none of them could. It wasted a lot of time. Otherwise, I would have returned earlier this afternoon and could have picked up Chaochao and Yueyue as agreed."
Chaochao and Yueyue, who were playing on the swings nearby, heard their names and looked up at Jiang Tang and Fu Sinian.
Jiang Tang waved at them, "It's none of your business, just keep playing."
Fu Sinian asked, "How was it resolved later?"
"Thanks to my elder brother!" Jiang Tang's eyebrows were beaming, and he was very excited as he said that at such an urgent moment, when everyone was urging them to hurry up, Jiang Chengzhou stood up like a savior and solved the problem of the tractor engine.
She looked at Fu Sinian and said, "My eldest brother is amazing! If he hadn't fixed the tractor, I might still be stuck in Hongxia Village and unable to return."
Before Fu Sinian could say anything, he suddenly heard two kids clapping from the side.
Chaochao and Yueyue were attracted by Jiang Tang's vivid words. They stopped playing on the swings and listened attentively, treating it as a children's story, which was quite exciting.
"Awesome, awesome, awesome~"
Yueyue is a little flatterer and said while clapping her hands.
Jiang Tang reached out and pinched her nose and said, "Yueyue, that man is your uncle."
"uncle?"
It is a rather unfamiliar name to Chaochao and Yueyue.
Jiang Tang said, "Yes, uncle. Mom's brother is your uncle."
"Brother, uncle?" Yueyue blinked and looked at Chaochao, "Chaochao is Yueyue's brother."
"Yueyue has an older brother, and so does mom. Your uncle is very smart, good at studying, and handsome too. Mom will take you to meet your uncle next time, okay? And your grandparents, Chaochao and Yueyue have never met them since they were born..."
As Fu Sinian listened to Jiang Tang praising Jiang Chengzhou word by word, he suddenly felt a strange, sour and bitter feeling in his chest, even though he knew very well that Jiang Chengzhou was just Jiang Tang's older brother.
The man's eyes changed again.
While Jiang Tang was talking to the two kids, Fu Sinian suddenly said, "Wife, do you want to sit on the swing?"
Jiang Tang was stunned.
She looked up blankly and asked doubtfully, "Me? If I sit on it, the swing won't break, right?"
Jiang Tang glanced uncertainly at the swing that was still swinging.
He changed the subject.
Fu Sinian said, "Just give it a try and you'll know."
He reached out, held Jiang Tang's hand, pulled her up from the stool, carried her towards the swing, and finally pressed Jiang Tang's shoulders to let her sit down with peace of mind.
Jiang Tang was still hesitant and kept shaking his head, "No, no, this is a child's toy. How can I, an adult,-"
While talking, Jiang Tang was already sitting on the swing.
The swing made by Fu Sinian is very sturdy. Even with the weight of an adult sitting on it, it is still stable.
He reminded, "Tangtang, the swing is about to move."
Fu Sinian stood behind Jiang Tang, placed his palm on her back, and pushed gently. Jiang Tang's figure slowly began to sway.
He didn't really use much force, as he was afraid that something might happen to Jiang Tang, or that Jiang Tang would be frightened. So he used a very gentle force, pushing it out slowly and gradually.
Jiang Tang sat on the swing, the cool night breeze slowly falling on her face, gently caressing the hair beside her cheeks.
This feeling... is really like what Yueyue said, I'm about to fly.
Yueyue asked from the side, "Mom, are you happy?"
"happy."
The swing swayed Jiang Tang back and forth, and he felt light all over. He looked up at the moon and the starry sky. It seemed as if wings were growing on his back, and he felt so free.
Jiang Tang was happy, and Yueyue was happy too.
Chao Chao shouted excitedly, "Mom, let me help you push."
On Jiang Tang's back, there was not only a big hand, but also a pair of small hands, pushing her warmly.
The gentle moonlight fell on their family.
…
That night, the atmosphere was warm, the mood was relaxed, and the family was happy and harmonious.
But there was one thing Jiang Tang did not mention, that was that she had promised Yang Suzhen that she would be a teacher in a rural primary school.
It’s not that she forgot, but she deliberately hid it at the end and said it when she was alone with Fu Sinian.
After Chaochao and Yueyue fell asleep, Fu Sinian took a shower and walked out of the bathroom.
His black hair was in a short crew cut, and he dried it with just a few wipes of the towel. After entering the room, he was about to turn off the lights, but he saw Jiang Tang, who was wearing a floral cotton pajamas and had not yet gone to bed. She was sitting on the bed, looking at him who had just entered the room.
It seems...that there is something to say.
Over there, Jiang Tang really said, "Fu Sinian, let's talk."
Fu Sinian put down the towel, walked over to Jiang Tang and sat down, his hands on his knees, serious and focused, "You say."
This actually made Jiang Tang a little nervous.
However, what she originally wanted to say was serious business. She was afraid that Fu Sinian would not agree, and she was thinking about how to convince Fu Sinian, so she deliberately left it to the end.
She took a deep breath and said, "On the way back this afternoon, I promised Director Yang that I would go to the school to teach. Do you agree?"
Fu Sinian asked, "Just a teacher?"
