Chapter 256 Old Lu's Worries
Old Lu was speechless after being silenced by his daughter-in-law's words. After a long while, he finally muttered, "The older members of their family are quite well-off..."
Jiang Jianni had never met the three Fang brothers, but she knew one thing: she had been married to Lu Xiangyang for two years and had never met the three Fang sons.
She chuckled softly and said, "Really? How good is it?"
Lao Lu: "..."
Some things are better left unthought out.
Especially when it is defined as 'not knowing how to raise a pet'.
Actually, boys are all pretty much the same when they're little.
The difference lies in the fact that some parents discipline their children, some turn a blind eye, and some even encourage their sons to be naughty.
The Fang family cannot be said to have neglected their duties.
But Fang Bo'an's so-called discipline meant that if someone came to his door, he would beat his own child without distinguishing right from wrong, and regardless of whose fault it was, he would first force his own child to apologize.
When Su Jing had just married Fang Bo'an, there was a time when the three children almost ran away from home.
If the station hadn't refused to sell tickets to children, these three kids would have run back to their rural hometown.
The atmosphere in their family only improved after Su Jing gave birth to her daughter.
But the father-son relationship remained strained, and the three children continued to be mischievous.
Their academic performance was increasingly poor.
When people chatted privately, they all felt that it was Su Jing, the stepmother, who was behind it all.
After all, Su Jing is a teacher. How could a teacher not be able to teach children well?
Later, Fang Bo'an couldn't stand the trouble caused by his three sons anymore, so he sent them to the army when they were old enough.
After a few years in the army, some of the lads who had been showing signs of hooliganism started to behave like decent people.
This only shows that the military knows how to teach people how to behave, not that Fang Bo'an knows how to teach children.
This only further proves that the person surnamed Fang is incapable of raising children.
Not to mention the crucial piece of evidence: Fang Shuying.
Mr. Lu sighed and fell silent.
I started to doubt whether I was even capable of teaching children.
Lu's mother snorted softly, "Alright, let's ignore him and go talk to our daughter."
"Jiani, are you really not going to acknowledge them?"
Jiang Jianni shrugged: "Although it may sound a bit materialistic to say this, to be honest, I don't see any need to acknowledge them."
She said seriously, "Dad, Mom."
"I want to ask you for a favor."
This was the first time she had spoken to the elderly couple so solemnly.
Old Lu felt a little flattered: "What is it? Tell me."
Jiang Jianni said, "I hope you won't tell my parents about what happened with the Fang family today."
“They are just ordinary people. If they knew, they would be terrified.”
Given Yang Yuemei's personality, Jiang Jianni knew without a doubt that she would persuade Jiang Jianni to acknowledge her biological parents.
Especially after Fang Shuying's incident in the Fang family.
Given Yang Yuemei's easily swayed nature, she would definitely sympathize with the Fang family.
Lu's mother: "This is your own business, we definitely won't tell you."
She cautioned, "But Old Fang and his wife aren't the type to give up so easily. What if he runs off to find your parents himself?"
Lao Lu and Lao Fang worked together for thirty or forty years.
Lu's mother has known Fang Bo'an for over thirty years and knows him very well.
It has a sense of not giving up until the goal is achieved, and using any means necessary to achieve the objective.
This can be seen from the fact that he chose the most convenient method of using a honey trap when he went undercover back then.
Now, Fang Shuying has first made the Fang family lose face, and then revealed her true identity. Fang Bo'an has lost all face and dignity.
Moreover, they found Jiang Jiani, their biological daughter.
Compared to Fang Shuying's selfishness and debauchery, Jiang Jianni is so pure and innocent that it's refreshing.
Besides, she's a college student, a teacher, a good storyteller, and married to Lu Xiangyang.
Lu's mother sighed inwardly.
To be honest, if she were Fang Shuying, she would also prefer a daughter like Jiang Jiani rather than one like Fang Shuying.
So Jiang Jiani was absolutely right when she said something.
Old Fang really doesn't know how to raise children.
Unbeknownst to her, Lu's mother had also begun to lean towards Jiang Jiani not acknowledging the Fang family.
Jiang Jianni sighed after hearing Lu Ma's reminder: "If they insist on doing this, there's nothing I can do."
"I guess the only thing I can do is follow others' example and take my parents abroad?"
"I'm a college student, so finding a job abroad shouldn't be too difficult."
Mr. and Mrs. Lu's expressions immediately changed.
As they were going to bed that night, Lu's father whispered to Lu's mother, "I really didn't expect that Xiao Jiang would have such a fiery temper."
And it's such an extreme and fierce personality.
Lu's mother also sighed, "Putting aside whether they acknowledge each other or not, with these extreme temperaments, Xiao Jiang and Lao Fang are exactly alike."
"That's true, Xiao Jiang is capable."
"Even if I don't become a teacher, I can still support myself by writing books."
“I saw that Xiao Jiang also bought that English book, so he won’t have any problems speaking when he goes abroad in the future.”
"Ah, capable people are amazing; they can find food anywhere."
Mr. Lu sighed with sympathy: "I'm the kind of person who knows nothing but how to fight. Luckily, I was born early."
"If I were born now, I'd probably have to go back to the countryside to farm."
He had barely finished speaking when he suddenly sat up.
Lu's mother asked in bewilderment, "What are you doing? Why are you so startled!"
Lu's father gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, I have to go warn that old bastard Fang to stop spouting nonsense in front of the Jiang family."
Lu's mother was bewildered: "?? Why?"
Father Lu: "Xiao Jiang is our daughter-in-law!"
"If she gets so angry because of that guy surnamed Fang's reckless behavior that she takes her parents and runs away abroad, what will happen to our son? What will happen to our grandchildren?"
Should we let our son, grandson, and granddaughter come with us, or should we not let them come?
If they go with them, they will lose their sons, grandsons, and granddaughters.
If I don't go with them, won't my son want a divorce?
Grandchildren either have no father or no mother, and no matter who they live with, life is never as good as having both parents.
Besides, he strongly suspected that if the third brother divorced Jiang Jiani, he would never get married again in his life.
This won't do!
Upon hearing what Mr. Lu said, Mrs. Lu's expression changed.
Even faster than her father, she threw off the covers and got out of bed: "If you can't manage alone, I'll go too."
“Let’s go and talk to Lao Fang together.”
“I don’t believe that with the two of us watching over him, Lao Fang would dare to act on his own.”
As Lao Lu put on his clothes, he clenched his fist and shouted, "If he doesn't listen, I'll beat him until he does!"
Lu's mother: "..."
Before Jiang Jiani and Lu Xiangyang could finish their private conversation, another baby appeared in their bed.
Lu Xiangyang's face darkened: "It's so late, what are you two doing?"
Mr. Lu said, "I have to go home for something, and your mother has to go back too."
Lu Xiangyang: "...Wait, I'll take you back."
