Chapter 108 Close by
Jiang Jianni retorted, "Do you really think our mother knows how to raise children?"
Jiang Haibing disagreed: "Why not? Didn't our mother raise all four of us? I think she raised us very well."
"Mom just needs to raise Dudu the same way she raised us."
Jiang Jianni sighed: "Do you remember when Lu Xiangyang was in a coma for almost two days after the accident, and then Mom hired a qigong master, saying it would help Lu Xiangyang get better quickly?"
The incident involving the Qigong master caused quite a stir back then. After all, a Qigong master who could cure all diseases couldn't even cure his own illness, which was just a simple case of food poisoning and diarrhea. He couldn't even get better from that and had to be on IV drips in the hospital for three days before he recovered.
In particular, he used his powers to cure someone, and they agreed on a treatment, but the person died before even leaving the hospital.
After these two incidents, it became clear that this qigong master was a fraud.
Some people think that qigong is a scam, while others think that the qigong master is just pretending and is a fraud.
The former qigong enthusiasts split into two groups, arguing incessantly every day.
More than half of the countless qigong classes have disappeared.
Jiang Haibing not only has to supervise the construction site, but also go out to do business and contact clients. Recently, he has been talking to clients most about these qigong masters.
For example, this master is very powerful; he not only swindled countless amounts of money but also deceived many women.
According to his own confession, he had three wives with whom he had a proper wedding ceremony, several others without official status, and countless casual affairs.
It's all just sweet talk and deception.
Most of the women realized they had been deceived after Li Honggang was arrested, but a few firmly believed that the police had wrongly arrested her.
One woman went even further, having given birth only two or three months prior. She would take her child to the police station every day to cause trouble, claiming that Li Honggang was innocent and had not lied to anyone. She said the police had wronged an innocent man and demanded that Master Li be released and the child's father be released as well.
Jiang Haibing looked relieved: "How could I not remember? Luckily, that bastard fell for it himself, otherwise we don't know how much more we would have been scammed."
Jiang Jianni sneered: "They've been pretending for so long without falling, do you really think they'll fall on their own?"
Jiang Haibing was stunned: "What, what do you mean?"
Jiang Jianni then recounted the tricks she had played and the foolish mistakes Yang Yuemei had made.
Jiang Haibing was stunned: "You, you, you, why didn't you say so back then?"
Jiang Jianni: "How could I possibly say something like this? Didn't you see that neither my parents nor I mentioned it? Especially after it was revealed that Li Honggang was a fraud."
"Because she was in the wrong, she was afraid, she felt guilty."
"Besides, she's still our mother. What can I do even if I'm angry?"
"Just because I don't say it to your face doesn't mean I'm not bothered by it."
"Haven't you noticed that I've rarely been home since Lu Xiangyang was discharged from the hospital?"
"Because I get angry and want to lash out whenever I see her, but she's my mother, and I can't really avoid seeing her all the time. I can only see her as little as possible to avoid losing control."
Jiang Haibing: "I thought you didn't come back much anymore because you got married..."
The thought that his own mother actually supported Li Honggang, that scoundrel, taking advantage of his younger sister made him furious. He kicked the wall several times, but still couldn't vent his anger.
Just as Jiang Jiani said.
Although Yang Yuemei almost did something foolish, she was their biological mother, the one who raised them from childhood and would rather suffer herself than let her children suffer. What could they, as children, do but accept their fate?
Jiang Haibing, catching his breath, asked, "What does this have to do with raising children?"
"Dudu is still too young. Let Mom take care of her for now. We can find a nanny once Dudu can walk and talk."
Jiang Jianni: "Would you be willing to let her whisper things like 'Your mom doesn't want you anymore' in Dudu's ear every day? She not only says it herself, but she tells everyone who comes to our house."
Do you think this is good for Dudu?
If Jiang Jiani hadn't asked, Jiang Haibing wouldn't have thought anything was wrong.
When she asked, he immediately thought of children who had lost their mothers or fathers, or children who had stepmothers.
These children are always asked, "Where did your dad/mom go?", "Your dad/mom doesn't want you anymore?", "It's all your fault that your dad/mom doesn't want you anymore", and so on.
These children all have some kind of personality flaws.
It's not that they're so insecure that they're afraid to talk to people, afraid to communicate, afraid to argue with anyone, and can only be bullied; it's that they develop in the opposite direction, refusing to listen to anything, finding fault with everything, and even enjoying physical fights.
Many of those street hustlers are like that.
The thought of his own child growing up without a mother and being asked such malicious questions made Jiang Haibing feel suffocated.
Just because they are not married does not mean that children should be encouraged to hate their biological mother.
They've already done enough by taking good care of their child for two months after birth.
Besides, it's true that the child's mother didn't want the father and son, but she didn't completely abandon them. Before she left, she left them 5,000 yuan for milk powder.
Five thousand yuan is enough to buy milk powder for a child until they are three years old.
You can't say that people don't care about their children at all.
He asked decisively, "How much did you pay for your house? I want to buy one too."
"But I don't have enough money right now, you'll have to lend me some first."
Jiang Jianni told him to take out a mortgage: "Can't you keep the money and use it to start a business?"
“You don’t work in a factory where you only get a fixed salary of a few dozen yuan a month, so it’s not a big burden for you.”
"Moreover, things look good, and everyone's income will increase."
"Once your business is up and running, you might spend several hundred yuan on a meal with someone. Don't worry about not being able to pay back this amount."
Jiang Haibing was unconvinced by the idea that his income would increase.
For so many years, his father's salary has remained the same, except for a slight increase due to his promotion.
But as Jiang Jiani said, he doesn't get paid; he earns his own money.
Although the business has just started, even so, after doing the math, he found that he earns more than when he was in the transport team.
After making up my mind, I didn't tell my family. I went straight home to get my household registration book and ID card to buy a house.
There were still many apartments in Jiang Jiani's building, so he bought a unit on the fourth floor, which was right above Jiang Jiani's apartment.
Jiang Jiani was speechless.
This guy was just talking before, but now he's really going to be neighbors.
Perhaps because he was an important supporting character in the novel, Lu Xiangyang's injuries healed exceptionally quickly.
In just two months, he was able to remove the cast, and his bones healed very well. The doctors were amazed by his recovery.
Of course, even if the healing is very good, you can't just run and jump as soon as the cast is removed; you still need to exercise and recover slowly.
But once he could move, he wanted to move.
Lu's mother was puzzled: "Isn't it great to stay at home? You just need to come back every day, and you don't have to do anything."
“If we move out, we’ll have to do everything ourselves. Jia Ni is busy with work, and you’re not well yet either. Will you be able to manage?”
"I can help you take a look at things at home."
She knew the two children would have to move out sooner or later, but she didn't expect Lu Xiangyang to want to move out before he was fully recovered.
Lu Xiangyang had only one reason: "It's closer over there."
Jiang Jianni lowered her head and chuckled softly.
That's a good reason.
That's not a real reason.
