Chapter 49 Jiang Xu cheated?
Before the meal started, Jiang Xu was busy helping Old Lady He entertain the guests.
He Youyun came over and chatted quietly with Jiang Xu: "Fourth brother and grandma had a quarrel just now."
Jiang Xu just had a chance to rest and took a sip of tea: "What are you arguing about?"
He Youyun shook his head: "I don't know the details, but it seems to be related to Jiang Xueruo."
Jiang Xu understood immediately. He Yanting probably felt sorry for his sister Xue Ruo.
"How dare Jiang Xueruo come here? She follows Fourth Brother around every day. How shameless! You're his fiancée!"
He Youyun pouted and complained.
Jiang Xu sipped her tea and said, "He Yanting gave his permission."
He Youyun curled her lips: "Aren't you angry at all?"
Jiang Xu smiled and said, "I'm not angry."
He Youyun grabbed her hand and said, "Sister-in-law, you are too tolerant of Fourth Brother. If it were me, I would be furious."
Jiang Xu shook the teacup: "I have always been tolerant."
At this time, He Yanting came down from upstairs with a bad look on his face, obviously scolded by Old Mrs. He.
Jiang Xu was in a good mood and stood up to continue entertaining the guests.
Soon, Mr. He came downstairs.
Everyone gave their blessings and gifts, and then the banquet officially began.
There were not many people coming today. There were three tables in total. Jiang Xu, He Yanting, the two old people, and some elders of the He family were at the main table.
Jiang Xueruo, Lin Yue, Zhuang Ze and others were at another table.
As soon as he sat down, Jiang Xu's expression changed.
There were a lot of meat dishes on the table, the smell was so strong that it made my stomach churn.
She has been eating light meals these days and rarely feels nauseous. She thought the symptoms of morning sickness were gone, but she didn't expect she was still so sensitive.
After Mr. He gave a few brief speeches, the meal officially began.
Jiang Xu only ate light vegetables throughout the whole process, trying to get away with it.
But the old lady kept staring at her: "Why doesn't Ruanruan have an appetite?"
Jiang Xu smiled: "I'm losing weight."
"You're already so skinny, and you're still trying to lose weight? Stop ruining your body like this."
Mrs. He picked up a piece of beef ribs for her and said, "Try it. The new chef is very good at cooking. He combines Chinese and Western styles."
Everyone at the table looked at her, so Jiang Xu had no choice but to eat it. As soon as she swallowed it, she felt a strong urge to vomit.
She covered her mouth, stood up and ran.
At this time, a middle-aged woman said sarcastically: "What's going on? Why didn't you say anything?"
This person is Jiang Chunmei, the mother of He Chengjun and He Youyun.
"Mom, don't say that. I'll go take a look."
He Youyun stood up and chased after him.
He Yanting looked at the direction Jiang Xu left, looking thoughtful.
Jiang Xu vomited in the bathroom for a long time, and then there was a knock on the door behind her: "Sister-in-law."
Jiang Xu flushed the toilet and opened the door.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
He Youyun's face was full of worry.
Jiang Xu shook his head: "It's okay."
He Youyun hesitated to speak: "Were you...vomiting just now? Are you pregnant?"
"No." Jiang Xu denied it flatly.
He Youyun was very determined: "I felt strange when I saw you in the gynecology department last time. Your vomiting today also looks like the symptoms of morning sickness. Don't lie to me."
Jiang Xu was silent. She almost forgot that He Youyun was studying nursing.
He Youyun happily held her hand: "This is a happy event, why are you still hiding it? Hurry up and tell grandpa, grandma and fourth brother, we can prepare for the wedding!"
"No, Youyun, you have to keep it a secret for me."
Jiang Xu pleaded.
He Youyun was puzzled: "Why? Haven't you always liked Fourth Brother? Now that you have a child, it's a good thing. Why don't you look happy at all?"
Jiang Xu pleaded, "Anyway, please don't say anything yet. I beg you."
He Youyun had no choice but to nod: "Okay, I promise you, but this kind of thing can't be kept secret for too long."
Jiang Xu said that she wanted to take some time, so He Youyun went back first.
As soon as she went out, she almost bumped into He Yanting who was about to come in and called out, "Fourth Brother."
He Yanting nodded, walked in and looked at Jiang Xu: "Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Xu said, "My stomach feels a little uncomfortable."
"The stomach again? I think it's safest to ask Dr. Hao to take a look."
He Yanting took out his phone, but Jiang Xu held his hand and said, "Forget it. I have important things to do today. Don't interrupt me."
He Yanting said: "The two things do not conflict."
Seeing that he was about to make a phone call, Jiang Xu refused again: "Really, no need."
He Yanting paused while dialing the phone, staring at her with an inquiring gaze: "You seem to be very reluctant to see a doctor. This happened several times before. What's wrong?"
Jiang Xu opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain, when suddenly He Youyun's anxious voice came from outside:
"Sister-in-law, come here quickly, something happened over there."
Jiang Xu: "What's the matter?"
He Youyun seemed to be having trouble speaking out: "Regarding you, anyway... Hey, come over here and explain!"
Jiang Xu was a little surprised, and He Yanting also raised his eyebrows.
The two looked at each other.
He Yanting curled his lips: "Ruanruan, what trouble have you gotten yourself into?"
Jiang Xu pushed him away: "Mind your own business."
When she returned to the banquet hall, she heard a commotion. Jiang Chunmei's voice was particularly sharp: "She needs to explain herself clearly. A woman like this cannot marry into the He family!"
"She's here." someone said.
Everyone looked at Jiang Xu, their eyes varied, but all of them seemed to be watching a show.
Everyone automatically made way for her.
Jiang Xu walked over and saw Mrs. He holding a mobile phone. Looking at the familiar pink phone case, it was Jiang Xueruo's.
Lin Yue and others looked at her with a gloating expression.
Jiang Chunmei shouted, "A woman should be a good woman. Jiang Xu, you're going too far!"
Jiang Xu glanced at Jiang Chunmei and said calmly, "Since when have you been in charge of the He family?"
Jiang Chunmei's face froze, and her arrogance immediately subsided. She coughed dryly and said, "Old lady, you speak."
When Jiang Xu was young, Jiang Chunmei wanted to arrange a marriage between her and her son He Chengjun, but Xia Yulin flatly refused. Jiang Xu and He Chengjun have always been at odds with each other.
Therefore, Jiang Chunmei held a grudge against Jiang Xu and her daughter, but due to the old lady's authority, she never dared to show it. Now she jumped up and down when she got the chance.
Jiang Xu would not give her face. If she didn't consider He Youyun's feelings, she would have said even more unpleasant things.
"Grandma, what's wrong?"
She looked at the old lady.
Mrs. He held her phone, feeling a little embarrassed to speak: "Ruanruan, is the picture above real? It must be photoshopped, right?"
Jiang Xu took the phone and looked at it, his eyes froze.
It turned out to be a photo of her and Qin Zifei. Judging from the angle, it was taken secretly. The background was University A. At first glance, it looked like they were kissing.
She returned the phone and looked at Jiang Xueruo.
Lin Yue protected Jiang Xueruo, "Jiang Xu, explain yourself clearly and don't blame innocent people."
Jiang Xu smiled and said, "I'm just curious, how could someone see the photo if it was stored securely on my phone?"
Jiang Xueruo said weakly, "I wanted to show them my travel photos, and they accidentally saw this photo. I didn't mean to do that."
Jiang Xu still smiled calmly: "It's not intentional. Why did I take the photo? I took it because I wanted others to see it."
Jiang Xueruo shook her head: "My classmate took the photo and insisted on sending it to me."
"Oh, you're innocent."
Jiang Xu didn't bother to listen to her explanation. He looked at Old Lady He and said in the silence, "Grandma, this photo is real."
In an instant, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Mrs. He was stunned: "Ruanruan, you... I don't believe it."
Jiang Xu said, "I haven't finished yet. The photo is just a problem of angle. I had a bug in my eye at the time, and that man was my senior. He helped me blow the bug out."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face showed a very dramatic expression, obviously not believing it.
Jiang Chunmei looked at him with disdain: "Your explanation is too far-fetched and sounds fake."
"Mom, please stop talking."
He Youyun pulled her arm.
"What's going on?"
He Yanting came over with a magnetic and threatening voice. He was holding a cell phone and must have been making a call.
Lin Yue gloated, "Fourth brother, you didn't expect that Jiang Xu cheated on her, right? There's witnesses and evidence."
He Yanting paused and looked at Jiang Xu: "Oh?"
Zhuang Ze handed Jiang Xueruo's cell phone to He Yanting. He Yanting looked at the photos and fell silent.
Dozens of eyes were focused on the two of them.
Everyone was waiting for the next second, when He Yanting would erupt like a volcano and throw Jiang Xu away.
After a few seconds of silence, He Yanting returned the phone to Zhuang Ze, his face expression calm: "It's a misunderstanding. I was there that day, but I wasn't in the photo."
Jiang Xu moved her lips and wanted to say something, but He Yanting stopped her with a look.
