The candy beans that Jiang Yang hadn't swallowed yet got stuck in his throat, causing him to cough dryly.
"What's wrong? Brother Yang, is it stuck?"
Jiang Yiming quickly patted his back and helped him move the stuck candy beans down.
Jiang Yang finally swallowed the candy beans, but wanted to spit them out again.
Forget it, forget it. Anyway, I know that the father is not a bad person, but I still feel uncomfortable eating the food he cooks.
"Brother Yang, if you're afraid of getting stuck, don't eat it."
"Okay, I won't eat anymore. Put the food away."
Jiang Yiming hesitated for a moment and reached out to take the paper bag.
At this time, Mei Xiangcao heard voices talking in Jiang Yang's room outside, so she came over to take a look. When she saw that the person sitting inside was Jiang Yiming, her face became a little unnatural.
If she didn't know that Jiang Yiming was Jiang Dongcheng's other son, she might have been able to feel somewhat at ease when she saw him, but now she felt awkward.
But she had nothing to hide. She and Jiang Dongcheng were together openly and honestly. There was no right or wrong between them. She could only blame fate.
She managed to tug at her lips: "Yiming is here."
"Auntie, I have nothing to do at home, so I came to chat with Brother Yang when I was bored."
He handed the paper bag of sugar beans to Mei Xiangcao and said, "Auntie, try it. These sugar beans are delicious."
Mei Xiangcao didn't want to accept his kindness, so she reached out and grabbed some. Just as she was about to put it in her mouth, she heard Jiang Yang's dry cough. Jiang Yang's expression seemed to remind her of something.
Mei Xiangcao was stunned for a moment, looking at the candy beans in her hand, wondering why Jiang Yang behaved like that. Was he afraid that Jiang Yiming would poison her?
She didn't understand what was going on. Jiang Yiming said in her ear, "Aunt, this is delicious, but you should eat it a little slowly. Brother Yang got it stuck in his throat just now."
"Oh." No wonder Jiang Yang was coughing, it turned out that something was stuck in his throat: "I will chew it slowly, it won't get stuck in my throat."
She ate a few and praised the candy beans, "They're delicious."
"Hehe." Jiang Yiming laughed cheerfully: "I said my dad's cooking skills are impeccable. Look, my aunt also likes to eat what he cooks."
"You, your dad!"
This time, even Mei Xiangca was stuck. The sugar beans got stuck in her throat and she started coughing dryly.
She really couldn't control herself. When she heard that this thing was made by that person, she couldn't eat it.
Jiang Yiming immediately panicked: "Auntie, why are you stuck too? Oh, it's all my fault."
He regretted giving this to Aunt Jiang.
Mei Xiangcao coughed for a while and then stopped. "It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine now. It's just that I won't eat this anymore."
In order not to waste food, she put the uneaten ones back into the paper bag.
Jiang Yiming still felt very guilty. He had originally wanted to make Brother Yang and Aunt Jiang happy for a while by enjoying the delicious food, but who knew that his good intentions would lead to bad consequences.
Are they allergic to these jelly beans? They get stuck in my throat.
Soon, he became interested again: "Aunt, the big brother I saw in the yard today really looks exactly like my father. I wonder if this uncle is my father's twin brother who got separated?"
"No." Mei Xiangcao rejected it outright: "His ancestors are from our place. Could it be that your father is from there too?"
"No, no, my father was born and raised in Beijing, and we have been here since ancient times."
"Then they have no relationship."
"That's just the look-alike."
Jiang Yiming sat here for a while, and in order not to disturb Jiang Yang's review, he prepared to leave.
When he arrived in the yard, he heard the sound of a child teasing him. He looked in the direction of the house, but left because it was not convenient to go in.
When this guy returned home and saw his father sitting in the living room, he quickly told Jiang Dongcheng what he had seen and heard in the courtyard.
"Dad, this is truly a miracle. Brother Yang's eldest brother looks exactly like you. You two are like cut from the same mold. No wonder Aunt Jiang mistook you for her husband. You really look so alike."
"Really? Are they that similar?"
"Yes, they are that similar. If you don't believe me, go to the courtyard and you'll see."
Jiang Dongcheng actually wanted to go and take a look. "Oh, don't worry. I'm going to go when their child has his full moon banquet anyway. I'll take a look then."
"Dad, I feel sorry for Aunt Jiang and the others. That guy looks just like you, but he's such a heartless person. He's so despicable."
"Maybe he's dead, he's not necessarily a heartless person."
"I just hope he's dead. Aunt Jiang has gotten through all these years, and her children are grown up now. They both have their own families, so they don't need that man anymore. It's better for him to be dead, so he doesn't have to be a heartless man for so many years and then suddenly come out and bring disaster to Aunt Jiang's family."
"Yeah." Jiang Dongcheng agreed, "No one who breaks his heart will die a good death."
Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. What happened? Was he sick?
But it only hurt for a moment and then everything returned to normal immediately.
He sat quietly in the room for a while, his mind unconsciously reflecting on the times he had seen Mei Xiangcao. Not long after, he heard a commotion outside. "Sister, you must help me this time. They really want to chop off my hand. This is real. You must help me give them the money, otherwise my hand will really be gone."
"I want to help you, but I have no money. What should I do?" Wu Min was very distressed.
"Where's my brother-in-law? Go and beg my brother-in-law to get me some money."
“He won’t give it to me at all.”
"Try again. If you don't ask her again, how do you know she won't give it to you? Maybe she will give it to you this time."
"Okay, I'll try again."
Wu Min walked into the house irritably, followed by Wu Jinhu.
Jiang Dongcheng heard everything they said outside and said to Jiang Yiming, "See, now you know what they are doing with the money."
Jiang Yiming nodded and lowered his eyes. Although he had doubts before, he had no regrets for fulfilling his filial duty. Since Wu Min did this, he had no regrets for not giving her money that time.
Wu Min and Wu Jinhu came into the house and were not surprised to see Jiang Dongcheng at home.
She couldn't get the money from Jiang Dongcheng using other excuses, so she could only ask Wu Jinhu to ask Jiang Dongcheng for it.
Wu Jinhu rushed to Jiang Dongcheng and complained aggrievedly: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, my dear brother-in-law, you must save me, you are the only one who can save me now. Those people want to chop off my hands, and I can't do anything without my hands. My mother will be heartbroken, and my sister will be heartbroken too. You don't want to see my sister sad, right?
But as long as I return the money to them, they will let me go. Brother-in-law, you must help me. You are my only support now. You will definitely not stand by and watch me get chopped off by them. "
