Chapter 203 Jiang's Father's Psychological Trauma
Fang Bo'an and Su Jing wanted to find the murderer who had switched the children in their neighborhood, but Fang Shuying had met many people since childhood.
People from the family compound, the school, the street, familiar or unfamiliar, even those I've met a few times or only once—they number in the tens of thousands, but also in the thousands.
Even after filtering out those who are not suitable for age, there are still hundreds of candidates.
Finding someone out of so many people, whose gender, height, weight, or body type is honestly no less difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.
The premise is that they know everyone who has crossed paths with Fang Shuying during her upbringing.
But this premise simply doesn't exist.
So the couple went home full of energy and spent half a day doing the process of elimination, only to be disappointed to find that it was simply impossible.
Fang Bo'an was so angry that he threw a tantrum at home. He wanted to call the police, but he felt that calling the police would be airing his dirty laundry in public, which would be even more embarrassing.
Without any hesitation, Su Jing called each of Fang's three sons to tell them the shocking news.
The three sons of the Fang family were dumbfounded.
They rushed back, eager to get to the bottom of things.
The aftershocks of the Fang family earthquake hadn't even subsided when the Jiang family earthquake began.
Yang Yuemei is not a patient person.
Anyway, Jiang Haibing only said not to make a fuss about it to outsiders, especially to his grandparents and his uncles.
Yang Yuemei originally wanted to show off in front of them, but remembering her in-laws' favoritism and her brother-in-law's shamelessness, she immediately gave up the idea.
She not only stopped showing off to her in-laws and sisters-in-law, but she also didn't dare to say anything to the neighbors—who knows which gossip might go and talk behind her in-laws' backs?
These people can't talk about it, but our own family members can.
Yang Yuemei endured it for three days, until Jiang Haibing finished setting up the new house. She couldn't hold back any longer and told Jiang's father and the two children.
Jiang's father muttered a few words softly and then let it go.
He understands the principle of a tree branching out as it grows bigger than his wife.
Regardless of whether the children are married or not, once they grow up and have the means, none of them want to live with their parents.
For specific examples, you can refer to the factory recruitment process when they were young.
At that time, the factory had just been established, and most of the workers it recruited were young people, a considerable number of whom were unmarried.
Unmarried young people are not allocated rooms; even if they live in factories, they can only live in dormitories shared by six or eight people.
Even so, young people would rather live in dormitories with their peers than squeeze in with their families.
Jiang Haiyang and Jiang Yanni were overjoyed, especially when they heard that there was a large color TV in the new house. They immediately asked to see what the new house looked like.
As soon as the family opened the door, beaming with joy, they saw Aunt Jiang with red eyes.
The Jiang family of four were completely dumbfounded.
Jiang's father took Dudu from Yang Yuemei's arms and said, "You two talk things out. We'll go out first."
Aunt Jiang stepped forward, blocking Father Jiang's path, and reached out to grab him, tears streaming down her face: "Second Brother, Second Brother, please, please help me..."
Jiang's father's eyelids twitched violently, and he took two large steps back like a cat with its fur standing on end, shouting sternly:
"stop!"
"What kind of behavior is this, resorting to physical violence!"
"Can't you just talk things out properly? What kind of behavior is this, crying and sobbing like this!"
It's no wonder Jiang's father is so sensitive; he's suffered several times at the hands of his brother's wife.
I don't know what happened to the third son's wife.
He's always slouching and leaning, he just won't stand up straight.
He always seems to have a hook in his eye when he talks to anyone.
When the third brother and his wife first got married, they hadn't separated their households yet and were still living in the old house in their hometown. They had to fetch water from the water pipe at the door.
Once, the third son's wife said she had twisted her ankle and asked him to help her pour the water she had just filled into the vat.
Jiang's father was too young at that time and didn't fully understand the dangers of society.
Besides, although the three brothers usually take turns carrying water home, everyone needs to use the water they bring back, so they carried the buckets back without saying a word.
After returning home, he had just placed the bucket next to the vat and hadn't even had a chance to pour the water into it when his third brother's wife suddenly came up to him, leaned close, and said, "Second brother, you've worked hard."
At that time, it had only been three days since the third son and his wife got married, and Jiang's father still thought that the third son's wife was quite polite.
As soon as he finished thinking, his head was punched and turned to the side.
Jiang's father was completely dumbfounded.
Before he knew it, the third brother had already hit him several times.
Then the two brothers started fighting for no apparent reason. The third brother shouted things like, "Don't you have any shame for taking advantage of your brother's wife?"
No matter how Jiang's father tried to explain that it was his third brother's wife who asked him to help carry the water into the house, his third brother just wouldn't believe him. He even said that his wife was right inside the house, so why didn't she ask him for help instead of asking his second brother, whom he had only known for three days, to help? He concluded that Jiang was after his wife and trying to take advantage of her.
Jiang's father was speechless and asked his third son's wife to speak for herself. As a result, she just lowered her head, her eyes red, and played with her fingers without saying a word.
Later, when Grandma Jiang returned from outside and heard what the third son said, she also started beating and scolding Jiang's father.
To make matters worse, Yang Yuemei returned from grocery shopping with her child and witnessed the scene.
In that instant, Jiang's father suddenly understood what it meant to be "the most poisonous heart is that of a woman," and he also personally experienced what it meant to be unable to defend oneself.
Enraged, he shouted on the spot, "Am I crazy? Why would I try to take advantage of a woman with a widow's face and a jinxed appearance? I'm not afraid of being cursed to death!"
The third son's wife had high cheekbones but a narrow chin. This kind of V-shaped face, which only became popular in the 2000s, was a typical symbol of a woman who would bring misfortune to her husband in the past.
As a result, his innocence was preserved, but the third son's wife was so angry that she cried, and Grandma Jiang and Jiang San were almost driven to death by the words "husband-killer".
Similar incidents occurred several more times afterward.
Although it didn't happen to Jiang's father, he not only had psychological trauma, but also felt that his third son's wife was not a docile woman.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have insisted on separating the family so soon after that incident—he originally planned to wait until Jiang Jianni was five or six years old and sensible before bringing up the matter of separating the family.
At that time, not only would his job grade be raised and his salary increased, but his child would also be older, making it easier for Yang Yuemei to take care of him.
Unexpectedly, plans changed quickly, and the family split up in haste.
In fact, over the years, he had secretly suspected that his third son's wife might have other men in the background.
Even Xiao Bao, the precious son she and her third brother had finally conceived, was somewhat doubtful as to whether he was actually her third brother's child.
Because Xiao Bao doesn't look much like the third child.
Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang weren't great people, but they were good-looking, and their three sons were all fair-skinned and handsome.
Jiang San and his wife were both fair-skinned and clean-cut, but for some reason, their baby was born with a dark complexion.
However, Jiang's father is no longer the same Jiang's father of the past; he has learned to keep quiet.
I only kept this to myself.
Now when I see my third son's wife coming to my door crying, my first reaction is that this woman is going to harm me again!
Aunt Jiang was crying when his loud voice startled her, causing her to choke and stop crying.
Jiang Haiyang and Jiang Yanni chuckled behind them.
Aunt Jiang wanted to get angry, but she couldn't care less. She had to suppress her anger and said quickly, "Second Brother, I really need your help with this."
"You don't know the third brother, he..."
