Chapter 39 I will divorce him soon
After Jiang Xianli completed the house transfer procedures, she went directly to the labor market to find a few workers to do the renovation.
Because it will be demolished in a few years, it is not well decorated.
I just planned to re-drain the plumbing, install the flooring, paint the walls, renovate the bathroom and kitchen, and buy some cheap furniture.
The construction period will be at least half a month.
Since it's not needed now anyway, Jiang Xianli is not in a hurry.
Saturday.
Jiang Xianli was still sleeping when the door was pushed open.
Xie Jingcheng walked to the bed with a cardboard box in his hand, looked at her peaceful sleeping face, and reached out to rub her head.
"Jiang Xianli, it's past nine o'clock, get up quickly."
“Hmm…”
Jiang Xianli opened her eyes dazedly, "What are you doing? Why didn't you go out?"
"I'm back from work." Xie Jingcheng opened the paper box and took out a black object about 20 cm long, 6 cm wide, and 7 cm high. "I'll give it to you."
Big brother?
Jiang Xianli came to her senses all of a sudden. According to the time, mobile phones had just entered the market, and they were the first batch. The price was as high as twenty or thirty thousand yuan, and the quantity was small, so even if you had money, you couldn't buy one.
Xie Jingcheng actually wants to give her one?
But I still pretended to be surprised and sat up from the bed, "What is this?"
"Cellphones are commonly known as big brothers. Let me teach you how to use them..."
"good."
Jiang Xianli had only seen it a few times in her life, so she really didn't know how to use it.
After she learned it, Xie Jingcheng said, "I'm going to go out with some friends and pick up Zhang Yunlai from my eldest sister's house. You can take this mobile phone with you. If Zhang Yunlai does anything out of line, I'll call you and you can just take my eldest sister over there."
"Okay, then you can take me with you. My eldest sister doesn't have to go to work today, so I'll go have lunch with her at noon."
When Xie Jingcheng parked his car at the gate of Zhang's house, he heard a quarrel coming from the yard.
"It's just a few pieces of clothes, and it's been over an hour, and they're not done yet. Jiang Xianhong, if you dare to be lazy again, I'll go find your mother and reason with her."
"Although there aren't many clothes, there are quite a few sets of sheets and quilts..."
"How dare you talk back? Do you think that just because your sister married a rich man, you will be blessed as well?"
"Mom! Don't say anything. Xie Jingcheng will come to pick me up to play soon. It will be very unhappy if he sees us bullying Xianhong. It's just these tasks. We will do them in the afternoon. Xianhong, get up quickly and change into some clean and beautiful clothes. You must not let Xie Jingcheng see that you are not doing well."
"Oh... OK."
Jiang Xianli stood at the door, trying hard to resist the urge to go in and hit someone.
Xie Jingcheng felt cold all over, "Don't worry, my eldest sister will divorce him soon."
"Um."
Ten minutes passed before they knocked on the door.
Zhang Yunlai opened the door and smiled warmly, "Second sister and second brother-in-law are here, please come in."
Li Guifen sat by the sink washing clothes, pretending to be very tired.
"Jingcheng and Xianli are here. The weather is nice today. I'm helping my daughter-in-law wash her bedsheets and clothes. I apologize for not hosting her well. Honghong, hurry up and make some tea for your second sister and brother-in-law."
Jiang Xianhong came out of the house. Although she was smiling, she couldn't hide the bitterness in her eyes and her face was full of fatigue.
"You two came at the right time. Our unit distributed tea and soy milk yesterday. I'll make some for you to try."
Jiang Xianli held her hand, "Sister, stop working, we don't want to drink. Jingcheng is here to pick up his brother-in-law to play together, and I'm here to go shopping with you. It's almost noon, let's go."
Jiang Xianhong looked at Li Guifen and said awkwardly, "I don't have anything to buy, so I won't go."
Zhang Yunlai wanted to please Xie Jingcheng, and thought that maybe he could take advantage of his wife if she went shopping with Jiang Xianli.
Then he said, "Go, of course you should go. The weather is getting colder and colder, and it's time for our whole family to buy winter clothes. It's a good opportunity for you to go with my second sister to pick some."
As he spoke, he winked at Jiang Xianhong, but Jiang Xianhong pretended not to see it.
But Li Guifen understood.
"Yes, yes, I'm jealous. You have nothing to do at home. You can go out and relax."
She pretended to take out five yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into Jiang Xianhong's hand, "Winter is coming in a few days. I heard that this winter is quite cold. You young people have good taste. Please buy a cotton shirt for me and your father."
Jiang Xianli couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, with this little money you can only buy a piece of cloth to make a cotton shirt, right?"
"well!"
Li Guifen sighed, "You know I'm in a bad job now. My family's income is much lower than before. How can we dare to buy expensive clothes? There must be cheap clothes on the street. It's impossible for us poor people to make a living."
Jiang Xianli wanted to say something, but Jiang Xianhong said, "I know, Mom. I will buy a cotton shirt for you and Dad."
After saying that, she pulled Jiang Xianli and walked out. Jiang Xianli naturally knew what evil plan Li Guifen and her son were planning.
However, if she didn't buy clothes for the Zhang family today, she was afraid that her eldest sister would be bullied even more severely at night.
Now she can only give the Zhang family some small favors to make her elder sister's life easier in the Zhang family, and the real thing is to let her and Zhang Yunlai divorce as soon as possible.
Jiang Xianli specifically asked Xie Jingcheng to drive them to Lanting Street.
After getting off the car, she took Jiang Xianhong to the house she bought.
Jiang Xianhong couldn't help but wonder, "Lili, what are we doing here?"
"This is my newly bought house. Workers are renovating it. I came to take a look."
"What?" Jiang Xianhong was shocked, "How can you afford to buy a house?"
"Xie Jingcheng gave me a lot of money, and I don't spend much on it, so I just want to buy a house. This way, no matter what the outcome between Xie Jingcheng and me is in the future, I won't be afraid."
