"It's true that, apart from your appearance, your personality is not much like your uncle and aunt."
It may be because Jiang Lai's difficult growing up process caused her personality to change.
"But the character hidden in your bones is somewhat similar to that of your uncle and aunt."
Jiang Nanxiao tried to make amends, but Jiang Lai nodded, still more interested in her parents' story.
"Brother, tell me quickly."
Jiang Nanxiao then talked about the past.
"Grandpa has four daughters..."
"My mom and your mom are the oldest and second oldest. They met my dad and my uncle, the twins, respectively."
At that time, the Jiang family's strength and status were highly sought after.
At the beginning, when the eldest son of the Jiang family found the eldest son of the Wei family, it was a marriage that everyone praised, a match made in heaven.
The Wei family also had great ambitions at that time.
But later, it was also the Wei family who did whatever it took to get what they wanted.
"My uncle was kidnapped right after he was born. He grew up in an ordinary family and was very simple and kind. He didn't understand the intrigues in the business world."
"The Wei family wanted to train him, but when they saw he wasn't capable of doing anything, they gave up. But then he fell in love with your mother, so they thought he might still be a good fit."
"Grandpa doesn't care about family background, he only looks at character and sincerity. Uncle is very much loved by Grandpa, and he has a very good relationship with Auntie."
"At that time, my father said that he had affairs with many people for personal gain, and his relationship with my mother gradually broke down."
Speaking of this, Jiang Nanxiao's eyebrows were obviously gloomy.
Jiang Lai felt that the following content would be quite sad.
She wanted to listen but hesitated.
Jiang Nanxiao saw it, took a sip of wine, and then spoke.
"You should know the truth too."
They are born from the same mother, but because of the different environments they grew up in, their personalities are also different.
The eldest brother of the Wei family is not only selfish but also lustful.
Just mess around with those people outside.
As a result, he even fell in love with his own younger brother and sister.
And he plays the role of his younger brother and develops a relationship with him.
"But your mother and your father loved each other very much. We're talking about soul mates now. She saw through it immediately and panicked for help. And my father..."
"My father didn't stop. At the critical moment, my uncle came back and the two of them started to wrestle. My father pushed my uncle down and the back of his head hit the sharp corner of the coffee table. He died on the spot."
Jiang Lai clenched his fists.
Ji Jindu stood up angrily.
Although I didn't experience that scene, I knew how tragic it was based on Jiang Nanxiao's narration in his cold voice.
"Of course the Wei family wants to protect my father, but grandpa wants to investigate."
"The Wei family allied with the Jiang family's rivals, and my father sold them some of the information he got from my mother."
"The Jiang family suffered a heavy blow and almost collapsed."
"And my aunt was also lost in the chaos and followed my uncle."
“…”
Jiang Lai also stood up. She had no conflict with Jiang Nanxiao.
The feelings of the previous generation cannot affect the next generation.
But she still couldn't help but speak in a serious tone.
"Brother, is your father still alive?"
"If I'm alive, you can't stop me from avenging my parents."
Jiang Nanxiao's mouth was full of bitterness, and even strong liquor couldn't save it.
Ji Jin also stood on the same front as Jiang Lai.
"Brother, we have no conflicts with you, and we won't have any grudges against you because of this. You are really kind to us, and we can feel your sincerity."
"But if you want to stand on your father's side, my sister and I will..."
Jiang Nanxiao put down his wine glass and slowly uttered a few words, leaving Jiang Lai and Ji Jin speechless.
"My last name is Jiang."
“…”
Huo Qinghuai and Chi Zhan pulled Ji Jin and Jiang Lai to sit down.
He whispered a few words of comfort.
The two sisters thought together and asked their husbands, "Do you know everything?"
Huo Qinghuai and Chi Zhan: "..."
Of course they know.
They didn't say anything, firstly because they felt that this incident was indeed tragic, and secondly because this incident should not have come out of their mouths in the first place.
To avoid miscommunication and misunderstanding.
My brother-in-law has already been offended, so there is no need to cause trouble for myself.
So at this moment, Huo Qinghuai and Chi Zhan had a tacit understanding of speaking the same language.
"We didn't check. This is your family's privacy. We were not in a position to check given our circumstances at the time."
Huo Qinghuai said this, and it was quite credible.
After all, his relationship with Ji Jin was very tense at that time.
But there is no need for Chi Zhan.
Jiang Lai looked at him without saying anything.
Chi Zhan held her hand and said, "We did get the marriage certificate, but I didn't check this. If you don't believe me, ask me. If I had checked, I wouldn't have missed it."
Jiang Nanxiao also felt guilty, and making the Jiang family prosperous was also a way to make up for the mistakes his father made.
Later, he spared no effort to help them because they suffered outside because of their father's reasons.
Now, of course, they didn't want them to quarrel on such a happy day as a wedding.
"Yes, they didn't check this."
He continued, "Originally, Jiang Lai was deliberately thrown out by my grandmother. My uncle and aunt were sad for a long time, so they gave birth to Xiao Jin."
"But I didn't expect that my father would join forces with outsiders to deal with the Jiang family, leaving the little Jin stranded outside."
"What they did was so wrong, so utterly wrong, and it's unforgivable unless they die."
"So, they are no longer in this world. If you still have anger, you can vent it on me, and I will use my anger to make it up to you."
Jiang Nanxiao finished speaking.
There was silence at the dinner table.
For a long, long time, there was no sound.
Finally, Jiang Lai drank a glass of wine and broke the silence.
"elder brother."
She poured herself a full cup and then filled another for Jiang Nanxiao.
"We drink this drink and it's over."
"Their previous generation paid the price for this, and you were young at the time and couldn't do anything. We all know what you did later."
"It's our business."
Jiang Nanxiao stood up deliberately and bent down to clink glasses with Jiang Lai.
"No matter what, I still want to apologize. I'm sorry."
He turned around and bowed to Ji Jin, "Xiao Jin, I'm sorry."
Ji Jin quickly stood up and said, "Actually, I am still here. I went straight to the Huo family at that time, and everything went smoothly along the way."
"It's my sister who needs an apology and comfort more."
Jiang Nanxiao nodded, "So I'm more respectful to your sister. Don't feel resentful. After all, she has suffered a lot."
Ji Jin waved his hands repeatedly, "No, I will stand with my brother and be kind to my sister."
The three brothers and sisters drank that glass of wine and let bygones be bygones.
Now we are all happy on our own, so we should look forward.
The previous generation is no longer in this world, so it is useless for them to worry about this matter.
"Brother, I want to go see my parents."
"Well, I can take you there anytime."
Ji Jin quickly raised his hand, "I'm going too."
"Of course you have to go." Jiang Lai smiled at her, "How could I leave you behind?"
She then whispered to Jiang Nanxiao, "If you want to know where Chen Xiao is, I can tell you."
Jiang Nanxiao shook his head, "I know."
"Between us...I'll take care of it, you don't have to worry about it."
Jiang Nanxiao is better than them, and his feelings are so real that even relatives would not interfere. Jiang Lai has already learned a lesson.
Ji Jin has also experienced this himself.
No one will interfere too much.
"Puff."
Suddenly there was a laugh.
Everyone looked over.
He Chengyun smiled lightly and said lightly:
"I'm sorry, I'm just so touched."
“???”
