Chapter 2 I have a feeling that you might piss me off to death in the future
Jiang Jinzhou's mother Xue Shuzhen quickly stood up and came over to hold Liang Xiulan.
"Look at this girl, what nonsense is she talking about? When did your aunt think you were not worth it?"
"Marriage is such a big deal, and this isn't even considered a discussion. You're a girl, and you just slam the table and walk out when you don't agree. How can you make the decision when so many elders are here?"
Liang Xiulan kept smiling politely and pulled her arm out of her hand.
"I can decide my own marriage, and I don't think Jinzhou and I are suitable.
Jinzhou is good-looking and works in a big factory. I don't think I'm good enough for him. Auntie, please find him a good wife who's cheap and affordable."
After saying this, he insisted on leaving, regardless of the Jiang family's attempts to stop him or the Liang family's confusion, and no one could stop him.
Jiang Jinzhou's sister-in-law went to school, but Liang Xiulan only knew how to read a few days.
So after they got married in their previous life, Jiang Jinzhou's mother always kept nagging in her ears.
They say it's not worth marrying such a daughter-in-law. Other families bring her home for more than a hundred yuan. What special skills does she have that she is worth more than two hundred yuan?
And all day long, whenever there's something going on, you tell your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law said...
Whatever my sister-in-law says is right, her farts are all fragrant, and her mistakes are excusable.
Whenever Liang Xiulan said something she disagreed with, her mother-in-law would think she was stupid, and that people who had not been to school were stupid.
Therefore, she felt that it would be better for Jiang Jinzhou to marry someone with more education, so that he could be on par with his sister-in-law, and the three of them would appear more sophisticated when fighting against each other.
Seeing that the person had already walked out of the courtyard, Jiang Jinzhou's aunt quickly patted Jiang Jinzhou and said, "Stupid, hurry up and chase after her. Ask her what's going on. Why did this girl turn against her so easily?"
Jiang Jinzhou finally reacted and hurried forward to block Liang Xiulan and her family.
"Xiu Lan, why did you change your mind so suddenly? Didn't we agree on this before? The betrothal gift can be discussed easily. Why are you leaving before we even start discussing it?"
Liang Xiulan pursed her lips tightly and looked up and down at the man in front of her who had tortured her all her life.
It would be a lie to say that there is no love between them. After all, they have lived together for more than 50 years. When Jiang Jinzhou is not complaining, the two are still very loving.
But when she thought about how Jiang Jinzhou had angered her after marriage, and how his mother and sister-in-law had plotted against her, she decisively refused!
"I'm annoyed just seeing you. What's there to discuss? When I entered your house today, I realized I'm not suitable to be your daughter-in-law. You should find someone else!"
"Annoyed? Why annoyed? Weren't you smiling at me just now?"
"Yes! I was laughing at myself. I thought I didn't understand you at all, but in that moment just now, I understood you thoroughly. So, I feel that we are not suitable for each other."
"I have a feeling you'll piss me off in the future. I want to live a few more years, so goodbye! It'd be best if we never see each other again!"
In her previous life, she spent fifty years trying to understand Jiang Jinzhou, but Jiang Jinzhou never tried to understand her.
She felt that anything should be forgiven as long as an apology was made, and if it wasn't forgiven, it would be unreasonable. Haha... She didn't know how many times she had been unreasonable.
But every time, Jiang Jinzhou just brushed her off with a few words, cooking for her and taking her out hiking to relieve her mood.
Do you think he was apologizing?
No! He had always advised her to be broad-minded and not let trivial matters affect the relationship between husband and wife, and not to be petty and hold on to trivial matters.
In the end, he didn't realize he was wrong at all and even blamed her for being stingy.
Jiang Jinzhou stared blankly at Liang Xiulan and her family as they walked away, feeling bewildered, hateful, and sad.
It’s not that he didn’t want to pursue her, it’s just that he wasn’t good at talking and didn’t know what to say. He also didn’t know why Liang Xiulan was angry.
Yesterday, the two of them were hugging each other and expressing their love for each other, promising to spend their lives together. Why are you suddenly annoyed with him today?
He felt that everything his mother said was correct. He even thought that Liang Xiulan's family shouldn't ask for so much dowry. He always felt that his family didn't have money.
Because the house was newly built a few years ago when I married my eldest sister-in-law, and the family bought a tractor in the past two years, how could they have money?
In fact, he didn't know that her mother had several thousand dollars in her hands, but she was reluctant to spend it, and even more reluctant to use it to marry Liang Xiulan, because if she spent too much money, the eldest daughter-in-law would make a fuss.
On the way back, Liu Guizhi asked Liang Xiulan.
"Lanlan, why do you suddenly not want to get married?"
It was Jiang Jinzhou who urged her before, so Liang Xiulan fell into Jiang Jinzhou's trap. Now that she thinks about it, it was probably his smart sister-in-law and shrewd mother who instigated her behind the scenes.
Liang Xiulan put her hands in her coat pockets and said calmly, "It's nothing. I just feel uncomfortable when I see his mother and his sister-in-law. I always feel that these two people are too cunning. I'm afraid I can't fight them."
In her previous life, she had never fought, so she asked to leave home and live alone. Fortunately, Jiang Jinzhou was capable and her life was pretty good.
But Jiang Jinzhou's mother would come over from time to time to pretend to be a good person and show her presence, which led to Jiang Jinzhou being plotted against several times. He felt that his mother was excusable.
At this time, Liang Xiulan's aunt Zhou Caiju came over.
"What our Lanlan said is right. I also think that her sister-in-law is quite cunning.
She and Jiang Jinzhou's mother exchanged glances several times, and I saw it all. I think Jiang Jinzhou's mother understands the eldest daughter-in-law's tricks best.
Lanlan is simple-minded, and she will definitely be controlled by him if she marries him!"
After saying that, he reached out and tugged at Liang Xiulan's uncle's sleeve: "Boss, you're the best at judging people, so tell me!"
His second uncle worked in a printing factory in town. Within a few years, he became a workshop team leader. In terms of knowledge and people judgment, he was indeed better than those farmers.
He took a long drag on his cigarette and exhaled.
"Hiss... huh... Listening to what this mother-in-law says and does, she has a hot temper. People with hot tempers are usually straightforward and don't think too much. Maybe it's just that this sister-in-law is a little difficult to deal with."
"But I think Jinzhou is a good kid, honest, not cunning, and a capable guy.
Life is still just the two of them; other people are not important. As long as he works hard, Lanlan won't suffer if she follows him."
I have to say that the second uncle is very good at judging people, but he underestimated the strength of Jiang Jinzhou's mother and sister-in-law. Moreover, Jiang Jinzhou also has a married sister who didn't show up, which was really a commotion.
The second uncle said that she was a good person, but Liang Xiulan said that her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were not good enough. Liu Guizhi was at a loss for a moment.
He poked Liang Xiulan's father, Liang Jianguo's arm.
"Boss, what do you think?"
Liang Jianguo exhaled a puff of smoke from his mouth and flicked the ash with his fingertips. After a long while, he finally managed to say, "It's Lan Yatou's life. Let's see what she thinks."
Her father has always been like this, without a backbone, with a strong sense of self-esteem, and never spending too much of his mental energy on serious matters.
They only quarrel over trivial matters.
Liang Xiulan had expected him to say that.
She smiled and looked up, holding her second aunt's arm with one hand and her mother's arm with the other.
"Oh...don't worry, it's not like I can't get married. Even without Jiang Jinzhou, there might be someone better. Don't think too much. I'll cook something delicious for everyone today!"
In her previous life, Jiang Jinzhou and the children were picky eaters, so she learned a lot of cooking skills.
