Chapter 31 Marriage Troubles
Eating alone at home, Xiao Qingru was too lazy to come up with any ideas. She just heated up the steamed bread she had had in the morning and ate it with some pickled vegetables.
Before they finished their meal, Mr. and Mrs. Xiao, who had gone to the banquet, came back.
Originally, Xiao's mother didn't want to go to the banquet, but Xiao's father said that they would meet each other every day in the future, and if their relationship became strained, they would be laughed at.
So I went there reluctantly.
Unexpectedly, when he came back, his face was full of smiles and he looked like he was in a good mood.
"Mom, what good thing happened?"
Xiao's mother couldn't wait to say, "Du Wanqiu's mother-in-law came and didn't want her to marry Jiangchuan. She insisted on taking her back to her hometown. Du Wanqiu refused to go with her. The two of them were almost fighting. It was an ugly scene."
Xiao Qingru asked: "Why is her mother-in-law here?"
According to Du Wanqiu's temper, he should be eager to cut off all ties with his hometown.
Don't take the initiative to bring your mother-in-law over.
"Jiang Chuan called me and said that Du Wanqiu was originally my daughter-in-law. Now that they are getting married, they should inform me."
At first glance, this process seems fine and shows enough respect for others.
However, apart from the parties involved, no one blessed their marriage.
Du Wanqiu's mother-in-law had originally counted on her to take care of her in her old age, but now that she has run away, she can no longer be counted on. Wouldn't this cause chaos?
Xiao Qingru was silent, and for a moment she wondered if Jiang Chuan was stupid enough to not see Du Wanqiu's true thoughts.
And there must have been no prior notice, otherwise Du Wanqiu's mother-in-law would not have shown up here.
Suddenly she felt a little regretful that she should have gone to the banquet just now.
"They were crying and making a fuss, saying that the Jiang family had robbed their daughter-in-law and their eldest grandson, and they wanted the Jiang family to pay for it. They saw the scene many times. Du Wanqiu was still crying when we came back."
Xiao's mother felt happy for a while. She let them do evil things, and now the retribution has come, right?
What happened today was truly embarrassing!
Jiangchuan's leaders are all worried, and we don't know if they will punish him later.
Xiao Qingru was eating steamed buns while listening to her mother talking about the wedding.
She didn't want to gloat over other people's misfortunes, but she couldn't help herself. Thinking of Du Wanqiu's smug look when they met last time, she couldn't help laughing.
This matter is not so easy to resolve. No matter where Du Wanqiu goes, a lot of blood will be shed.
And Jiangchuan might also be bitten off a piece of meat by him.
Father Xiao shook his head and said, "Can't you two laugh a little quieter? It would be so embarrassing if someone heard it."
"Why, just because they're having a hard time, we have to be sad too? Don't smile anymore?"
"You know that's not what I meant."
"What do you mean?"
Father Xiao knew very well that it was better to hide when there was nothing to do. "I have something else to do. I will go to the study first."
Xiao's mother glanced at her husband's back and complained to her daughter, "Your father just cares about his reputation. He always cares about his relationship with Jiangchuan's father."
"Mom, don't you like my dad's loyalty and loyalty?"
"That doesn't stop me from blaming him."
In life, there are always some kind of helplessness.
Xiao Qingru understood her father's difficulties. As someone who holds an important position, one must be tolerant and do things with a magnanimous heart.
If I show my emotions on my face and in my actions, my father's work will be affected.
But if her father really cared about his reputation, he would not have helped her to break off the engagement.
For some things, as long as the result is good, the process does not matter too much.
