Chapter 7: Continue to paint a rosy picture for your mother



"Chuanhu's mom, I don't want anything. I just want Chuanhu to apologize to our Jun'an and promise not to bully Jun'an again."

After all, Xu Mei was in the wrong, and she didn't dare to provoke Jiang Manyue because she had a very tough mother and she couldn't beat her.

"Okay, okay, when Chuanhu comes back, I'll take him to the Lu family to apologize. If he bullies Jun'an again, I'll beat him to death!"

Jiang Manyue was satisfied and taught Jun'an to say goodbye to Xu Mei politely before leaving the Jin family.

After taking Lu Jun'an home, there was still no one at home, so Jiang Manyue took out some candies and sugar cakes from her room and took Lu Jun'an to Jiang's house again.

Several children from the Jiang family were playing in the yard. When they saw their aunt holding Lu Jun'an's hand, they thought they were seeing things. Why was their aunt holding the Lu family's child's hand?

Jiang Manyue walked closer with Lu Jun'an, shaking the cake in her hand, "Do you want to eat sugar and white sugar cake?"

The children instantly forgot about their aunt holding Lu Jun'an's hand, and their eyes were only on the cakes in their aunt's hand.

"If you want to eat, agree to one condition from my aunt. If you can do it, you will always have delicious food in the future."

The temptation of having delicious food often was too great. Jiang Hong, the oldest, asked eagerly, "Auntie, what are the conditions?"

Jiang Manyue pushed Lu Jun'an in front of them and said, "You guys should take him out to play in the future and don't let others bully him. Then I'll bring you some delicious food. Okay?"

This was no big deal in the eyes of the Jiang family's children, so Jiang Hong nodded and agreed immediately.

"Okay, then come with me to the main room. Let's divide the delicious food first, and then you can take him out to play."

Jiang Manyue brought a group of children into the main room and distributed the cakes and candies, including some for Lu Junan.

Lu Jun'an got his share, thought for a moment, and pushed all the candies and sugar cakes in front of the others.

"Aunt bought it, and my brothers are eating it."

The Jiang brothers were very touched. This younger brother was really sensible and was willing to give up such delicious food.

The eldest brother Jiang Hong immediately patted his chest and promised, "From now on, just play with me, and I will never let anyone bully you!"

Lu Jun'an smiled shyly, and after the children put away their snacks, he followed them to play in the yard.

There were no adults in the Jiang family at the moment. Father Jiang and his brothers had gone to work, and Mother Jiang and her sisters-in-law were probably out collecting grass for the pigs or firewood. Only Jiang Manyue, an adult, was left sitting in the yard watching over the children.

Miao Xianghua and eldest daughter-in-law Lin Qiufang returned home, each carrying a basket of firewood, and saw Jiang Manyue sitting in the yard basking in the sun.

"Man Yue, are you going to have lunch at home?"

Miao Xianghua didn't even look at the grandchildren squatting in the yard playing, nor did he notice that Lu Jun'an was among the children.

"No, I brought Jun'an with me. I'll take him home for dinner later."

Miao Xianghua was stunned, and so was his sister-in-law Lin Qiufang. "Who? Who did you bring here?"

Jiang Manyue pointed at Lu Jun'an who was squatting among the children. "My little nephew. I brought him here to play with Jiang Hong and the others. He's always being bullied by Jin Chuanhu and the others. He looks so pitiful."

Jiang Hong heard his aunt call his name and looked up at Lin Qiufang, "Mom, my aunt brought us a lot of delicious food. I hid the white sugar cake under my pillow. I'll give it to you later!"

Lin Qiufang was very happy when she heard from her son that Jiang Manyue brought a lot of delicious food to share with the children. After all, it was rare for children to have snacks, and bringing them some once would be enough to keep them happy for many days.

Miao Xianghua was also very happy. The girl knew that she was thinking about home and bought delicious food to share with her nephews. She was happy to see the girl like this.

"I still have some food coupons. I happened to be going to the county town today, so I'll bring them some food."

As she spoke, Jiang Manyue took out a few cloth coupons from her pocket and said, "I also got these from my parents-in-law. I have enough clothes to wear. Mom, you take them."

The cloth coupons were indeed of little use to Jiang Manyue, and if she needed them, she could always go to the black market to exchange them, so she simply gave the cloth coupons to Miao Xianghua.

Miao Xianghua knew that Lu Lin sent back a lot of allowances and tickets every month, so he accepted them without hesitation.

Lin Qiufang watched from the side. Although the cloth coupons were not given to her, she was happy to see it.

What the family lacked most were these coupons. My sister-in-law gave the cloth coupons to her mother-in-law. In the end, they would probably be saved to make new clothes for the children, and her children would also get some.

Lin Qiufang, who seemed to be very kind to her sister-in-law today, had a smile on her face. She took the initiative to carry Miao Xianghua's backpack to the woodshed, leaving her mother-in-law to talk to her sister-in-law.

"Man Yue, why did you bring that brat from the Lu family? Did your mother-in-law order you around?"

Jiang Manyue listened and gave her mother a reproachful look. "Mom, didn't I tell you yesterday that I wanted to be nice to the Lu family? Don't we still count on Lu Lin to lead us to a good life in the future?"

Miao Xianghua looked at the happily playing Lu Jun'an, then looked at Jiang Manyue, and gave her a thumbs-up. "My daughter is really smart. She made this little brat happy, and the two old men in the Lu family were happy too. Who can find any fault with you?"

Jiang Manyue nodded, "That's right, but Mom, from now on, you have to call me Jun'an. It would be embarrassing if others heard it, and they would think I'm saying one thing to your face and another behind your back."

Miao Xianghua poked her forehead helplessly, "Okay, okay, you're the only one with so many ideas. Can't I just stop calling him that from now on?"

Jiang Manyue leaned against Miao Xianghua with a smile, "I know Mom is smart too. Let's win over the Lu family, and we'll have delicious food and drinks every day from now on."

Faced with the big cakes that Jiang Manyue continued to throw at him, Miao Xianghua touched the cloth coupons he had just received and happily accepted them.

"Okay, you can rest here. Mom is going to pick vegetables from the private plot."

Jiang Manyue nodded and watched her mother go to the private plot in the backyard. She continued to sit in the yard and watch the children play.

After a long while, seeing that it was almost lunchtime, Jiang Manyue finally got up and brought Lu Jun'an back to her.

"Did Jun'an have a good time just now?"

Lu Jun'an's face was red, but this time it was out of excitement.

"Happy."

Jiang Manyue smiled at him, took him to wash his hands, and prepared to take him home.

The Jiang children were quite reluctant to leave. Jiang Hong ran over and patted Lu Jun'an on the shoulder. "After your nap this afternoon, let's go to your house and find you. We'll take you to the river to catch crickets!"

Lu Jun'an happily agreed and made an appointment with Jiang Hong and the others to go out and play in the afternoon, and then went home with Jiang Manyue.

When she returned to the Lu family, Li Guifen had already prepared dinner. As soon as she came out of the kitchen, she saw Jiang Manyue walking in with Lu Junan, whose face was full of joy.
