Chapter 134 The Pros and Cons of This Marriage
When Chen Guisheng heard that Su Jiaojiao came from the city to look for him, he didn't see Chen Juan.
I was very anxious, so I put on my raincoat and went out in the heavy rain.
The hotter the weather, the less sick Xu Yue'e felt. She was making dumplings at home when she saw Su Jiaojiao was soaked. She quickly took a towel and asked her to wipe her face. She also comforted her, "Don't worry, your cousin is the most worry-free person. She will be back soon."
"Second aunt, you wait for my sister at home, I'll go out and take a look." Su Jiaojiao wiped her face, took off her raincoat, took an umbrella and walked out. She walked aimlessly on the street. Chen Juan was calm and composed. She ran away from Chen Guichang's house, probably because Chen Guichang said something unpleasant. She returned home, but couldn't vent her emotions. She probably wanted to find a place to calm down.
So, where can she go?
I remember one time, my second aunt had a seizure and beat Chen Juan. Chen Juan ran to the beach and cried before coming back. Would she go to the beach?
Su Jiaojiao took an umbrella and walked quickly towards the beach.
It was raining and there was no one on the road.
Wutong Village is very close to the sea.
It’s about two miles away.
It was just raining, and the road was getting more and more muddy. Su Jiaojiao slipped every few steps as she walked forward. The rain gradually gathered into a gurgling stream, rushing towards the seaside, and her shoes were all wet.
As they walked, Su Jiaojiao saw Chen Juan, a small figure huddled up in a ball, sitting on the seawall with her knees hugged, not moving. Su Jiaojiao immediately trotted over and asked, "Sister, why are you here?"
"Jingjiao, what are you doing here?" Chen Juan slowly raised her head and looked at Su Jingjiao with a numb expression. Rain and tears flowed down her face. She wiped them away and said embarrassedly, "Don't worry about me. I won't be upset. I just have nowhere to go. I came here to sit down. Who knew it would rain..."
"Sister, I know everything." Su Jiaojiao sat down next to her, holding an umbrella in one hand and hugging her with the other, feeling sad. "I'm sorry, I didn't even ask you about your blind date. Don't be sad. We will definitely meet someone better in the future."
"Get up! Don't sit on the ground. It's very cold." Chen Juan took the umbrella from Su Jiaojiao, pulled her up, and patted the mud and sand off her pants. She choked up and said, "I'm really fine. I've thought it through. It's just that when I first heard that he agreed to break up, I couldn't stand it..."
The rain is still falling.
The sea was gray, the waves were rolling under their feet, and they were rushing towards the embankment with white foam. There was a salty and damp smell all around. Occasionally, a seagull would fly past them quickly and disappear on the sea in a blink of an eye.
Su Jiaojiao was also soaked from head to toe. She held Chen Juan's hand and carefully went down the embankment: "Luckily it's low tide. Don't come here again. Why don't you come find me?"
"You're at school, and I don't want to disturb you." Chen Juan wiped the rain off her face and moved the umbrella closer to Su Jiaojiao. "But I still disturbed you. How did you know about this?"
"My second cousin told me that." Su Jiaojiao took the umbrella and put her arm around her shoulders. "She said you rushed out of her house and she was worried about you and was looking for you everywhere. What did my uncle tell you?"
"He told us not to talk anymore." Chen Juan's eyes instantly turned red. She lowered her head, afraid that Su Jiaojiao would see. "Then I said that the grudges between you adults have nothing to do with us. He said, he said that you are so young, you can't live without a man?"
"Isn't this the person he introduced to us?" Su Jiaojiao was furious when she heard this. "Why can he match you up whenever he wants and break up with you immediately if he wants? What does he think of us?"
Breaking up is normal.
But forcing someone to break up so forcefully is abnormal and sick!
"I thought so too." Chen Juan started crying again. "I'm his niece after all. I just told him what I was thinking, and he said I couldn't live without a man. The man agreed to break up, so why couldn't you just agree? Then, then, my cousin asked me, 'He didn't touch you, did he?' I couldn't bear it any longer, so I ran out..."
"She's sick!" Su Jiaojiao couldn't help but curse, "Don't associate with them anymore, they're too perverted."
Nowadays, when blind date partners meet, they are too embarrassed to even look at each other.
No matter what, Chen Mei shouldn't ask such a question.
The rain gradually stopped.
The water on the road was getting deeper and deeper.
The fields beside the road were all flooded. Looking around, there was a vast ocean. The water had reached the knees of the two people. The surface of the water was full of grass debris washed down by the rain, swirling and flowing past them in waves.
Both of them grew up by the sea, so they weren't afraid. They slowly waded forward. Seeing that she had calmed down, Su Jiaojiao expressed her inner thoughts: "To be honest, I'm not optimistic about your blind date. He's not right for you."
"Do you think that since he doesn't have a father, his mother and brother will become a burden to us?" Chen Juan was also willing to tell Su Jiaojiao her true feelings. Su Jiaojiao said frankly, "Yes, you found someone to marry because you wanted him to share the burden of the family with you, not to help alleviate poverty. But this person already has a burden on his own, how can he help you? Maybe you will even have to help him. It's not appropriate for two people with heavy burdens to be together."
"But he's really a very good person." Chen Juan's tone was very reluctant. She had never been in a relationship before, and Su Jiaojiao didn't know what she meant by "good" so she asked her, "How many times have you met?"
"Three times!" Chen Juan remembered it clearly. "He came to our house twice, and I went to theirs once."
"After only three times, you already know he's a good person?" Su Jiaojiao lamented that the little girl was too naive. "Tell me, how did he get better?"
"When he comes to my house, he helps me carry firewood and water while I cook. He's always busy." Chen Juan's eyes lit up. "Even when I go to his house, he's the one who cooks and runs around."
"Well, he's quite hardworking!" Su Jiaojiao agreed and asked, "So, what does he do and how much does he earn?"
"He's just like me. He farms at home on weekdays, and then goes out to do odd jobs during the slack season." Chen Juan only remembered his good side and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Su Jiaojiao continued to analyze it for her, "Then you got married, your parents are getting older, you farm together, and then go out to do odd jobs together. Who will take care of the family? Don't tell me his mother will help you take care of your parents. She has a little son to take care of, so she can't take care of us."
"Why would I let his mother take care of my parents? I can take care of them myself." Chen Juan sighed, "What's the point of saying this now?"
She was sad, not just because of Chen Guichang's attitude.
More importantly, she was reluctant to break up.
