Hearing this, Aunt Mu's face changed slightly: "What are you discussing?"
"What are we discussing?" Ye Li smiled. "Of course, we are discussing whether there will be any more entanglements between her and my husband in the future."
"You...you are going too far. My daughter just got divorced today, and you can say such things! Aren't you going too far? Who? Who said that?" Aunt Mu said angrily.
"she!"
Aunt Liang and Wang Sha pointed at Aunt Jiang at the same time.
"This... this is too rude of you." Aunt Jiang said anxiously, "I just said it casually, I didn't mean anything else."
"I don't think you are someone who doesn't have that intention." Ye Li finished speaking and turned his gaze to Yuan Yueqin. "You saw it, didn't you? How many eyes in this yard are staring at you and Jiang Xun? If you make the slightest move, people will talk about you behind your back. It's true that a person can be killed with a tongue."
Yuan Yueqin understood the meaning of Ye Li's words clearly.
"Don't worry, Ye Li, what happened between Jiang Xun and me is a thing of the past. Now that you are both married, I am not the kind of person who would interfere in other people's marriages!" Yuan Yueqin said in front of everyone.
...
...
Ye Li smiled: "I don't think you are that kind of person. It's just that there are inevitably people in this courtyard who have crooked hearts, crooked eyes, and can't control their mouths that love to gossip!! I'm afraid that such a good person like you will be misunderstood because of some of your actions, and then some unpleasant words will be spread. This will damage the reputation of you and Jiang Xun, what do you think?"
Yuan Yueqin nodded: "Yes, you are right."
"That's good." Ye Li said, turned around and went back into the house.
"Look at your sister-in-law's cunning mind. She's already angry! Just wait and see. Sooner or later, there will be a quarrel between your sister-in-law and Yuan Yueqin!" Aunt Jiang left her words and walked into the house with a small stool. "Let's stop talking. Let's go back and rest."
Everyone in the yard dispersed.
Wang Sha returned to the house with the stool in her hand. Seeing Jiang Rui lying on the bed, she became angry and said, "Listen, your sister-in-law made a scene for me in the yard, and you didn't even come out to help."
"Manage? How?"
"You're still asking how to manage it? Of course, I'll say a few good words for me. What else can I do?"
Jiang Rui waved his hand: "It's useless for me to say anything. You are such a good mouth, aren't you? What were you gossiping about in the yard? And she caught you in the act!"
"I... I thought she wasn't at home. I didn't expect that she would come back so early."
"That's not bad at all. If the old lady was at home today, I think you would have been scolded by her!" Jiang Rui snorted and laughed.
Wang Sha gnashed her teeth and said, "Why do your parents like Ye Li so much? How am I worse than her? Look at my status. When Hu Jingjing was around, your parents liked Hu Jingjing. Later, Ye Li came and your parents liked Ye Li again. Anyway, they just don't like me!"
"Don't argue about those useless things. If you had my sister-in-law's way, you wouldn't have to complain here!"
"Jiang Rui!" Wang Sha shouted, then softened her tone, "What do you think I should do?"
"What else can I do? The old lady thinks highly of you and treats you like neither food nor water. In my opinion, all those nonsense are empty talk. The most important thing is that you give me a son as soon as possible! Once this son is born, the old lady will look at you differently." Jiang Rui said.
"But my stomach isn't working...it just won't get pregnant. What should I do?" Wang Sha looked worried.
"What else can I do? I'm telling you, the old lady has hidden a bracelet, and that bracelet is an antique. If you give birth to a grandson first, maybe the old lady will give it to you if she's happy."
After hearing Jiang Rui's words, Wang Sha was immediately moved: "Hurry up and take off your clothes!"
Jiang Rui chuckled and said, "Wife, you are so impatient."
It had just gotten dark when the couple got ready in the house.
Zhao Xingmei and Wang Jingshan came back with Jiang Xun.
When the three people passed by Jiang Rui and his wife's house, they heard the blushing and heart-pounding noise inside.
"Look at what you have accomplished." Zhao Xingmei looked down on the couple from the bottom of her heart. "Neither of them knows how to make progress. They have been working for so many years, but they haven't won a single honor. All they think about every day is those trivial things."
Wang Jingshan coughed awkwardly twice: "Don't say that, aren't they thinking of having another child?"
"Why give birth to another child if you can't even take good care of one? Our Nini has been raised at her parents' home. Whose child does this child belong to?" Zhao Xingmei said hatefully.
"Mom, I'm going back to my room first." Jiang Xun felt embarrassed and offered to leave first.
Zhao Xingmei was stunned, and suddenly realized that this statement might be too harsh.
So, he quickly corrected them: "I'm talking about Jiang Rui and his wife! Not you and Ye Li. You two need to communicate more...more deeply..."
Jiang Xun responded: "Yeah."
Then he raised his leg and left.
"Look, why are you saying this? It will make the eldest couple think more about it." Jiang Jingshan couldn't help but complain about his wife.
"Isn't it the second brother and his wife who are embarrassing? Everyone in this yard knows that these two people never leave the house unless it's their turn, and they are busy with those little things every day? When people told me about it, my old face turned red." Zhao Xingmei cursed a few words, then lowered her head and walked into the house.
Jiang Jingshan quickly caught up, and the old couple entered the house one after another.
…
Jiang Xun returned to his room and saw Ye Li still sleeping in bed.
He sat on the edge of the bed and patted her shoulder gently: "Li Li, wake up."
Ye Li opened her sleepy eyes when she heard Jiang Xun's voice. Suddenly she remembered that she hadn't cooked yet, so she turned over and sat up: "Why did I fall asleep again? I haven't made dinner yet. I'll go cook for you right away."
"Don't move." Jiang Xun held her down, "I bought some food on the way."
Seeing that he bought cooked food and a few steamed buns from the grocery store, Ye Li said, "Don't buy them next time. We still owe money to Mom and Jiang Xi, we can't always buy and eat like this."
"I thought you must be very tired, so I bought something."
"I am quite tired." She didn't get enough rest last night, and spent a whole day in the workshop today. When she got off work, her waist and legs ached. "It's so quiet outside. What time is it now?"
"It's nine o'clock."
"So late?" Ye Li was surprised. "I slept for so long? But why did you come back so late?"
"I'll go buy you some medicine." Jiang Xun took out an ointment from his pocket, "It's for reducing swelling and relieving pain."
Ye Li blushed: "You are really thoughtful."
"I can't bear to see you suffer last night. Li Li, eat first. After dinner, I'll apply medicine on you."
"I can do it myself."
"We have been frank with each other. Is there any part of your body that I have not seen?"
"How annoying." Ye Li said angrily, "Even if you were buying medicine, you can't take so long to come back, right? Is there something else?"
Jiang Xun was silent for a moment, then nodded: "You did ask the right question. There really is something going on."
"What's up?"
"Please don't be angry if I tell you."
