When Aunt Jiang heard what her neighbor Aunt Fat said, her face turned red. She was a person who cared a lot about her reputation. She always wanted to compete with others in everything and to show off. She had never been so embarrassed before. She was so angry that she couldn't help but glare at Aunt Fat next to her.
"Little Sister Zhao, what do you mean? What's the matter with the chicken being eaten by rats? Who are you scolding?" Aunt Jiang said.
"Whoever you want to scold should be scolded. I'm talking about mice, so how come you are a mouse?" Neighbor Aunt Zhao said with a click of the tongue.
As a neighbor who lived nearby, she knew the situation of the Jiang family better than anyone else. She had long been fed up with the second son's family sucking the blood of the eldest son's family, but the eldest son's family hadn't said anything, so as an outsider, she naturally couldn't say anything.
But since Tian had a reason, she had to help out. She had never gotten along with Aunt Jiang anyway, and she was happy to see her get humiliated.
"Xia Xia, your parents are such kind people. If it weren't for the old lady's trouble, she would have yelled at us all, and we wouldn't have known about this." Aunt Zhao spoke to Jiang Xia again.
"While everyone is here, Xia Xia, tell me, what do your grandma and your second aunt want to do this time? Don't worry, we are all adults, and we will definitely not let anyone bully you." Aunt Zhao said.
Someone took the initiative to ask about the reason, and Jiang Xia naturally had to follow up on this reason and continue his story.
She had done it on purpose the previous day. She had let Old Lady Jiang throw a tantrum and make a fuss so that everyone would come to watch the fun. She wanted to give everyone a heads-up in advance so that they would know what Old Lady Jiang was like, how much she had given, and how much her kindness had benefited their family.
In this way, even if something really happens later, it will cause unpleasantness and friction with Old Mrs. Jiang.
These gossips will not hurt her parents' spine, and they may even affect their work.
In her previous life, this good grandmother had done many things like this, smearing her parents' reputation everywhere, saying that they were unfilial, and even making trouble for them at work. This time, she would not give them this opportunity.
"I was doing well in the job I applied for, but grandma and second aunt came to my house and asked me to quit and give the job to Sister Jiaojiao. I refused, so grandma and second aunt got angry." Jiang Xia started talking. She looked very obedient and usually had a good attitude in front of her elders. After she said this, it seemed as if Jiang Xia was being bullied.
Such a good child must have been bullied so harshly that the table would be flipped over like this.
This is what they know now, and they are just watching. We don’t know what is going on behind the scenes.
"Changdi, Mrs. Jiang, as neighbors, we have to say a few words. What you did is a bit unkind. The job you reported was passed by Xia Xia, who did an excellent job and was even named an advanced worker. She also won an award for writing about our hospital in the newspaper." Aunt Zhao spoke.
After hearing Aunt Zhao start, the others nodded one after another.
"Yes, the eldest family is rich, and they live a good life because of their own abilities. The old lady is too narrow-minded and biased. Jiaojiao is your granddaughter, and Xia Xia is also your granddaughter." Another neighbor who was watching the fun spoke up.
The old lady was speechless. She was also very proud. In recent years, people in the courtyard and those in the town all praised her, saying that she was great and that her family had a college-educated son who became the party secretary. They all praised her for her ability and capability and for being able to manage the household.
