Chapter 15 We Can't Ignore Our Children
Jiang Jianni crossed her arms and looked at her: "I'm fine, and I won't give my man to Jiang Yanfen, so just give up on that idea."
Grandma Jiang rolled her eyes and fell backward.
Jiang's father rushed over: "Mom? Mom? Mom, what's wrong?"
Then he asked Jiang Haibing and Yang Yuemei to help him take the old lady to the hospital.
The Jiang family was in complete chaos.
Finally, Jiang Jiani, Jiang Haibing, and Jiang Yanni, who had classes the next day, were left behind.
After they left, Jiang Yanni ran out and gave Jiang Jiani two thumbs up: "Sister, you're amazing!"
Jiang Haibing said worriedly, "Sister, you had a good time today, but tomorrow our eldest uncle and third uncle will probably cause you trouble."
The Jiang brothers both had their eyes on their father, whom they considered an easy target.
Jiang Haibing and Jiang Jiani are both stubborn because their parents are mild-mannered. They are unwilling to suffer any loss. Jiang Haibing and Jiang Yanni are younger and are protected by their older siblings, so their tempers are relatively mild compared to their older siblings.
Jiang Jianni didn't care at all: "Anyway, I'm going to get married soon, and I'll belong to someone else's family from now on. I can do whatever I want."
"If anyone dares to disrespect me and gossip before my wedding, I'll show them what it means to be a nobody."
The saying "A married daughter is like water spilled from a cup"—a phrase that often breaks many girls' defenses—comes in handy at this moment.
Jiang Yanni chuckled, and Jiang Haibing laughed too.
Before the three siblings could even sleep, the other four returned.
Jiang Haibing was full of resentment: "You said you were fine, why were you faking illness? Do you have to make people laugh at our family before you're satisfied?"
Grandma Jiang felt ashamed when the doctor exposed her for faking illness, and retorted, "Isn't this Jiang Jianni's fault?"
"All I did was ask her to give up her boyfriend to Yanfen."
"With her qualifications, she'll definitely find someone better in the future."
"That brat not only doesn't listen to me, but she's also deliberately trying to annoy me."
He turned and scolded his daughter-in-law: "Look at the good daughter you gave birth to! She won't even help her own sister with such a small thing, and she even dares to talk back to me..."
Then came a string of profanities.
Yang Yuemei lowered her head and remained silent after being scolded.
She just wouldn't listen to her and try to persuade Jiang Jiani.
Jiang's father pressed down on his eldest son, who was flushed with anger, and looked at Jiang's grandmother seriously: "Mom, why don't you go back to your third son's place tomorrow?"
"Jiani is getting married, and her mother and I have been very busy lately, so we haven't had time to take care of you."
"Didn't your third brother's wife get sick a few days ago? Go back and take good care of her, so she won't argue with you again."
Grandma Jiang couldn't believe these words came from her second son's mouth: "You, you, you, you're kicking me out?"
If she hadn't argued with her third son's wife, she would have gone crazy and come to her second son's house, only to be chased away by her second son.
Jiang Haibing chuckled, went inside, and closed the door in one swift motion.
Jiang Jianni pulled Jiang Yanni away from the doorway.
Jiang Yanni asked in a low voice, "Sister, do you think Grandma will go back tomorrow? I don't want Grandma to stay at our house."
Grandma Jiang was as diligent as a hired nanny at Lao San's house, but when she came to Lao San's house, she became a patriarch who wanted to be fed even when eating.
Therefore, Jiang Yanni really disliked Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang coming to live in her house.
Jiang Jianni also lowered her voice: "Don't worry, even if she stays, she won't stay for more than a few days."
She paused for a moment, then added sarcastically, "They're still eyeing Uncle San's precious grandson."
There are differences between the transmigrated life and the previous one, such as the one-child policy.
The family planning policy here allows for two children, but there must be an interval of more than three years between the two births.
Uncle Jiang got married early, but he was unlucky and only had one daughter before the one-child policy officially started.
She miscarried her second pregnancy, which was also a girl. She miscarried three girls in a row, and finally conceived her current baby girl when her eldest daughter was about to enter junior high school.
Grandma Jiang cherishes this precious grandson like her own flesh and blood; it would be strange if she were willing to leave him for an extended period of time.
Jiang Yanni pursed her lips again upon hearing this.
The two sisters covered their ears with the blankets, pretending not to hear the noise outside.
They didn't know when Jiang's mother came in to sleep or when she got up, but when the two sisters got up, Jiang's mother's quilt was already folded.
And Grandma Jiang, who was causing trouble, was actually sent away.
The four Jiang siblings were so happy that they each drank an extra bowl of porridge for breakfast.
Lu Xiangyang didn't pick her up from school at noon. Jiang Jianni thought he might be on a mission, so she didn't pay much attention. After eating at a nearby restaurant, she went to look for him.
The young man could hardly believe his ears when he heard the request: "Just follow along? You don't have to do anything? You don't have to hit or yell at me?"
Jiang Jianni nodded: "Yes, neither hitting nor scolding."
The young man was a little conflicted: "What if they find out about me?"
The young man really wanted to agree, but he remained rational: "What if they arrest me and take me to the police station?"
Jiang Jianni laughed: "You were just going the same way as him, why would he call the police to arrest you?"
"If he finds out about you, don't be afraid, just smile at him."
"You don't need to do anything else."
The young man thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll do it!"
Stalking someone is a bit exciting, especially since you get paid for it.
The young man felt like a member of the underground Communist Party before liberation.
Jiang Jianni gave him twenty: "After he's scared out of his wits, I'll give you the remaining eighty."
Yes.
That's right.
Jiang Jianni generously spent 100 yuan to punish that pervert Gao Haoren.
They agreed on a time and place to meet next, and then parted ways.
They didn't notice that someone was eavesdropping while they were discussing things.
When they left, the eavesdropper also left.
Jiang Jianni was overjoyed to have her biggest worry resolved, and she even started humming a song when she left work.
Gao Haoren stopped Jiang Jiani again: "Jiani, why didn't your boyfriend come today?"
Jiang Jianni frowned and said rudely, "What's it to you?"
Gao Haoren, however, didn't take it to heart. He smiled gently, disapprovingly but also with a tolerant expression: "Girls shouldn't speak so rudely."
Then he sighed: "Jiani, you see, men, especially those who are good-looking, are prone to arrogance."
"Look, your partner has only been picking you up and dropping you off for a few days, and you've already lost patience and stopped coming?"
"You shouldn't just look at the surface when choosing a partner..."
Jiang Jianni almost vomited from disgust: "You..."
Suddenly, a woman rushed out from the door and hugged Gao Haoren tightly, crying with snot and tears streaming down her face: "Old Gao, Old Gao, I've finally found you."
? ? ?
Jiang Jiani was completely baffled.
The woman looked on incredulously: "Old Gao, how could you say such a thing?"
“I’ve already given you two children, and you just went to college and never came back.”
"I finally found you, and you won't even acknowledge me?"
Gao Haoren was dumbfounded: "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't even know you, where did this child come from?"
The woman gave him a deep look and called out, "Da Ni'er, Er Bao, come out here right now."
The two older children, around ten years old, and the younger one, around seven or eight, immediately rushed over from the side and grabbed Gao Haoren's legs, calling him "Dad."
The woman held Gao Haoren firmly in her grasp and said loudly, "I know you look down on me because I'm unsophisticated and from the countryside. You don't want to be my wife. Fine, I accept that I'm not good-looking."
"But the child is innocent. You can't just disown your own child, can you?"
? ? ?
Jiang Jiani was stunned.
Gao Haoren was also dumbfounded.
Teacher Li, Teacher Ji, several students, and the gatekeeper who came out with Jiang Jiani were all dumbfounded.
