Chapter 161 What are you Jiang family members doing here?
Xie Jingfeng was a little impatient, and smiled lightly, "Ms. Zhao, let me be frank, the reason why my fourth brother fell in love with your wife is because she has a special personal charm.
She is calm, gentle, considerate, wise, and knows when to advance and when to retreat. Most importantly, she makes people feel at ease when she is with others, especially not like you who force others to do things against their will.
Ms. Zhao, you are my fourth brother's sister-in-law's cousin, so we are related. There are some things I don't want to say that will embarrass you, do you know that?"
Zhao Fang works in sales and has worked in the workplace for several years. She knows that if she continues talking at this time, Xie Jingfeng will only dislike her.
Then he smiled and said, "I just want to work hard for my own happiness. After all, I am not the kind of person who would back down when faced with difficulties. But since you are so determined, I can only wish you to find the girl of your dreams in the future."
snort!
We can't let her give up like this.
How could she, Zhao Fang, be outdone by Jiang Xianli!
…
There was no class that afternoon, so Jiang Xianli took a nap. When she woke up, Xie Jingcheng brought her a glass of honey water.
"Wife, come fishing with me later."
Jiang Xianli took a few sips of water and asked, "You have a date?"
"No, it's just the two of us. Let's just treat it as a date and spend some time alone together."
"Hey, okay."
It is already April and the sun is shining outside. Jiang Xianli changed into spring clothes and brought some snacks.
Over there, Xie Jingcheng also packed up his fishing gear.
Yunling Lake is crowded with people in the spring, including couples on dates and elderly people taking a walk...
The two found a place with few people, opened two folding chairs, one started fishing, and the other started eating snacks.
Jiang Xianli would feed Xie Jingcheng from time to time.
I don’t know if it’s the fish food or the fish hook that’s good, but the fish are being caught one after another.
After a short while, a large spotted eel weighing three or four pounds was caught.
Jiang Xianli couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow! Young Master is really good."
Xie Jingcheng smiled proudly, "Of course."
In just two hours, we caught a bucket of fish, including three or four that weighed four or five kilograms.
A ten-centimeter-long small carp costs at least a hundred.
Xie Jingcheng looked at the time. It was past four o'clock.
"We can't finish all this fish. Your sister-in-law is pregnant, right? Let's go give her some wild carp to help with the pregnancy. Yangyang will take the college entrance exam soon, so let him eat more fish to help with his brain."
"OK."
In short, fish can make up for everything.
When the two arrived at Jiang's house, Jiang Xianming and Ding Yuanyuan had just got off work.
Ding Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Second sister, second brother-in-law, why are you here at this time?"
Jiang Xianli opened the trunk of the car and said, "Jingcheng caught a lot of fish this afternoon. I thought it would be good for pregnant women to eat wild carp, so I sent it to you."
Ding Yuanyuan took a look and said, "There are so many. My second sister and her husband are so thoughtful. Thank you. Xianming, please come and pick them up, and then prepare the fish. We will cook them in the evening, stewing, braising, frying..."
"Okay."
Jiang Xianming had just brought the fish into the yard when Jiang Xianyang came back from school on his bicycle.
Wearing a white shirt, black pants and carrying a schoolbag, he has regained his former bright and handsome look.
"Second sister, second brother-in-law!"
Xie Jingcheng smiled and said, "I'll treat you to a fish feast tonight."
"That's great."
At this time, Zhao Xiumei came out of the yard.
He took out ten yuan and handed it to Jiang Xianyang, "You can just ride your bike to the street corner to buy a roast duck and make some cold dishes."
"OK."
Turning around, Zhao Xiumei asked Xie Jingcheng with a smile, "Son-in-law, what would you like to eat tonight?"
"I'm not picky. My wife likes deep-fried fish. You can just fry it for her."
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements. You guys play, I'll cook."
After that, she called into the house again, "Jiang Dongshan, come out and help Xianming kill the fish."
"I'm here."
Ding Yuanyuan also entered the kitchen and said, "Mom, last time I saw my second brother-in-law really like to drink gluten soup, why don't we make a pot of it?"
"OK."
Dinner was not ready until seven o'clock.
Fish head tofu soup, braised fish, deep-fried fish, roast duck, spicy and sour potato shreds, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, gluten soup, steamed buns.
Jiang Xianli rolled a steamed bun for Xie Jingcheng, put some shredded potatoes and a few slices of roast duck in it.
Xie Jingcheng took a bite and said, "I love this. It tastes really good."
Zhao Xiumei smiled and said, "If you like it, come often and I will cook for you."
"Okay, Mom."
The family is having a lively meal.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
Jiang Dongshan asked, but no one answered, so he got up and opened the door.
I didn’t expect it to be Jiang Xianhui.
"Why are you here?"
Without waiting for her to say anything, Jiang Dongshan said in disgust, "Go away, or your mother will be upset and will beat you again."
But Jiang Xianhui just walked into the house.
"Oh, they're all here. The food is quite rich."
Zhao Xiumei glanced at her with disgust, "Get out, Jiang Xianhui, you have already severed our engagement, if you have any shame, don't come here to cause trouble again and again."
She no longer prayed for Jiang Xianhui to get better, as long as she would stop causing trouble.
Jiang Xianhui took out 20,000 yuan from her bag and placed it in front of her. "Severing the relationship is just a momentary angry remark. Blood ties can never be erased. Wu Jianting and I are divorced. On the 20th of this month, I will marry Zhou Kunhao, the richest man in Haiping. This 20,000 yuan is the betrothal gift he gave to you, mom."
"Don't call me mom!" Zhao Xiumei put down her chopsticks, picked up the money and threw it directly to the ground, "I don't want your money, take it and get out of here."
Jiang Xianhui let out a breath and sneered, "What are you doing? Who are you pretending for? Since you are greedy for money, you should be greedy for the most money, otherwise you will not only end up with nothing but also be labeled as a prostitute.
Wasn't it for money that you threatened to die to get Jiang Xianli to marry into the Xie family? As far as I know, apart from the betrothal gift and a few home appliances, you never received money or any big items from Xie Jingcheng or Jiang Xianli.
But in Jiang Xianli's heart, you are a complete evil mother. Now I give you 20,000 yuan at a time, and you throw it away. What? Do you want to save your reputation again?"
Zhao Xiumei was immediately furious. "I let Lili marry into the Xie family because she and Jingcheng are a good match in age, and she can have a handsome husband while being rich. Why are you marrying an old man? You don't feel ashamed, but I feel embarrassed.
I don't expect to eat a piece of your candy in my life, please don't come to my house in the future, I am over 50 years old and I don't have many years left to live, just let me live in peace."
Jiang Xianhui took a deep breath and calmed herself down.
"No matter who I marry, it's my own life, not yours. Why are you so angry?
Marrying Zhou Kunhao, at least you'll have money, which is a million times better than marrying Wu Jianting. Isn't this what you've always believed in?"
"I don't want to talk to you anymore. Get out of here, hurry up, and don't force me to do anything."
As Zhao Xiumei spoke, she went to the wall and got a broom.
"Okay, I'll go, but you can keep this money. Even if we're no longer engaged, this money will be my way of repaying you and dad for raising me."
Without waiting for Zhao Xiumei to say anything, she turned around and left.
In the end, Zhao Xiumei picked up the money on the ground and said, "Humph! I raised her to this age, why would she refuse it?"
Maybe she had never seen so much money in her life and was so happy, or maybe she felt guilty for taking so much money from Jiang Xianhui.
She, who had always been very frugal, actually said, "Come on, if you see me, there's a share, two hundred each."
She gave two hundred to each of them, including Jiang Xianli and Xie Jingcheng.
Jiang Xianli joked, "It seems that my trip today was not in vain. I got 400 yuan for nothing. Thanks to my estranged sister, I got so much money from this family for the first time."
Zhao Xiumei rolled her eyes at her and said, "Come on, stop being so sullen. This is the first time I've seen so much money. Eat your fill and go home quickly. It's getting late."
"Okay."
…
On Saturday, Jiang Xianli was reading a geography book at home.
Aunt Wang knocked on the door and said, "Fourth Young Master's Madam, Miss Xianhong is here."
"Okay, I'll be right down."
Jiang Xianli went downstairs and Jiang Xianhong was already sitting in the living room.
"Sister, why are you here? You're going to give birth in a month or two. If you have anything to say, you can just give me a call. Why come here in person?"
Jiang Xianhong smiled and said, “I have already resigned now. It’s boring to lie at home every day, so it’s a good time for me to go out for a walk.”
At this time, Aunt Wang brought two bowls of bird's nest and a fruit plate. Jiang Xianli took a bowl and placed it in front of Jiang Xianhong.
"I heard that if you eat more bird's nests during pregnancy, your baby will have good skin. You should eat it, sister."
"good."
Jiang Xianhong took two bites and said, "Xiaohui sent me an invitation to her wedding by mail. What do you think, considering our current relationship with her, should we go or not?"
Jiang Xianli said without thinking, "Go, of course. To put it bluntly, she only has conflicts with me and mom, she has no conflicts with you, brother, and Yangyang. Besides, she also gave you a gift on the day you and your brother-in-law got married, you should go and return it."
She knew that her sister came to ask her because she was undecided and also because she was afraid that she would be angry.
But she didn't want to morally blackmail others about the conflict between her and Jiang Xianhui.
Her sister is not only her sister, but also Jiang Xianhui's sister. What right does she have to cut off contact between the two people?
After a pause, Jiang Xianli continued, "Jiang Xianhui also sent me an invitation, and Jingcheng also received Zhou Kunhao's invitation. Let's go together then."
She went mainly to watch the fun, and her ex-wife became her future mother-in-law.
This big show should not be missed.
Jiang Xianhong nodded, "Okay then."
…
On the day of Jiang Xianhui's wedding, Xie Jingcheng and Jiang Xianli drove Wu Peng and Jiang Xianhong to the hotel.
The entrance of the hotel was decorated with lights and ribbons, and there were many balloons tied to it. The red carpet was several hundred meters long.
It can be seen that Zhou Kunhao is very fond of Jiang Xianhui.
As soon as they got off the car, they met Qin Xuan and Lu Jiaheng. Yes, Zhou Kunhao is the richest man in Haiping City.
When he got married, he would definitely invite half of Haiping City's upper class to attend.
Zhou Kunhao asked Zhou Yu to greet the guests at the gate. His sullen face did not look like he was attending his father's wedding, but rather as if he was attending his father's funeral.
Zhou Yu and Xie Jingcheng already had a grudge against each other, and now that his father married Xie Jingcheng's sister-in-law, he hated Xie Jingcheng and Jiang Xianli even more.
When I see them, I don't even pretend and just ignore them.
However, Xie Jingcheng and the others didn't care. They entered the hotel, found an empty table and sat down. Not long after, Jiang Xianming and Ding Yuanyuan also arrived.
Jiang Xianhong asked, "Xianming, are our parents here?"
Jiang Xianming nodded, "No, my mother is very proud, and Xiaohui has severed her relationship with my mother, so she can't come. I guess they let us come because of the 20,000 yuan."
"It's okay. We are here, so we are considered as Xiaohui's family members."
Suddenly, Tian Cuiping came over with Wu Jianqiang.
Tian Cuiping said disdainfully, "Why are you Jiang family members here?"
Ding Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "We were just about to ask you why you're here?"
"Heh..." Tian Cuiping pinched her waist with both hands, and said, "To tell you the truth, after my son divorced Jiang Xianhui, he married the daughter of the richest man in Haiping City. The daughter of the richest man even bought a house from me. Now I am also a city dweller.
Today, the richest man, my in-law, is getting married to a woman who is more than 20 years younger than him, so of course I have to attend the wedding."
Wu Peng laughed and said, "Does your whole family still not know who the richest man married?"
"My son and daughter-in-law are on their honeymoon. I haven't found out yet, but they are back and will probably be here soon."
Wu Peng smiled playfully, then pointed at the banner in the auditorium.
"Look at the names of the bride and groom."
Tian Cuiping looked at it carefully and said, "I can't read, what are you asking me to read?"
Although he is illiterate, Wu Jianqiang has received some education.
He was filled with disbelief and was utterly shocked.
"Mom, mom! It says here that the groom is Zhou Kunhao and the bride is... Jiang Xianhui."
"What?" Tian Cuiping shook her head and said firmly, "It's impossible. How could the richest man fall for that second-hand bitch? There must be a mistake, or they have the same name."
Jiang Xianhong said unhappily, "Not only is your son a second-hand product, he was also kept by a rich woman. Even the daughter of the richest man can like him. So why is it strange that my sister is so beautiful and is liked by the richest man? If the bride's name is written wrong, then why are we here?"
"How can your bitch sister compare to my son? My son is a college student! He even studied abroad!"
"Mom, what's wrong?"
At this time, Wu Jianting came over holding Zhou Xue.
Wu Jianting was wearing a gray suit and had a handsome face.
Zhou Xue wore a light blue chiffon long-sleeved dress with delicate makeup and looked beautiful.
The two of them look quite a good match standing together.
When Tian Cuiping saw her son and daughter-in-law coming, she suddenly felt aggrieved, despite her originally high spirits.
"Son, daughter-in-law, the Jiang family insists that your father married Jiang Xianhui."
"what?"
Zhou Xue seemed to have not heard it. "Why are the Jiang family helping the poor people so much? What nonsense are they talking about?"
Wu Peng let out a sneer, "I think you are the one talking in your sleep. All of us in the Jiang family are your elders. From now on, you and Wu Jianting will call us aunt and uncle whenever you see us!"
“Shut up…”
Just as Zhou Xue was about to lose her temper, Wu Jianting tugged at her sleeve and said, "Look at the names of the bride and groom on the hall."
