Not long after Liu Haiyang left, Li Qing came over. He looked like an eggplant hit by frost, listless and without any of his previous spirit.
Jiang Nian was sitting in the clinic reading a book, leaning back on the chair, looking lazy and dazed.
Li Qing walked in dejectedly, sat in front of Jiang Nian, looked at her for a long time, and still didn't know how to start talking.
Jiang Nian put down the book and asked her, "Do you want to see a doctor?"
Li Qing shook his head. "Doctor Jiang, can I ask you a question?"
Jiang Nian looked straight into her eyes, and for some reason, she felt inexplicably guilty.
"Just ask." She said.
She lowered her eyes, as if the oppressive aura just now was not emanating from her.
"You...why don't you like my brother?" Li Qing looked at Jiang Nian cautiously, afraid of making her unhappy.
"Then why do you think I should like your brother?" Jiang Nian threw the question back to her.
"My brother is a very good person. He is tall, handsome, young and promising. He is the ideal marriage partner for many girls."
"Since he is so nice and you are engaged, why don't you marry him? It's better to keep the money within your family."
Li Qing said dejectedly: "But he only treats me as a sister, and I...I only treat him as a brother. We grew up together and are too familiar with each other. It is really hard to imagine what it would be like if we became husband and wife in the future."
She accepted her fate for a while because she was raised in a strict family and she had no right to resist whatever her parents asked her to do.
But when Yan Jin fell in love with someone else, she became suspicious.
As long as he gets married, there is completely no hope between the two of them, and his parents will have to give up on matchmaking.
Jiang Nian: "I have never really liked a man, and I don't know what I want from my other half, but at least when I get along with him, he should make me feel comfortable and happy. Your brother can't give me that feeling, and I'm not the kind of person who is willing to sacrifice myself for others. Even if we are together, it won't have a good result. Do you understand?"
Li Qing didn't know whether she understood it or not, because it was the first time she heard such remarks.
Whether it is the adoptive parents or the uncles and aunts in the village, the most common saying is that a woman's life depends on whether she marries well. If she marries well, she will have no worries in her life, but if she marries badly, she will suffer all her life.
Therefore, Yan Jin became the most desired marriage partner for girls in the surrounding area, because he had a job and was capable, and marrying him was at least better than marrying someone else.
Jiang Nian saw her confused look and knew that she definitely didn't understand.
A smart person will understand things immediately, but a person who doesn't understand will have a thousand excuses to make excuses even if you break things down and tell them to her.
So it doesn’t matter whether she understands it or not, for Jiang Nian.
The reason why she asked this question today was probably because of what her adoptive parents had done.
She didn't want to get involved, and she wouldn't deliberately ask about it.
But those things still reached her ears.
I heard that Yan Jin had a big fight with his parents in the morning, and the neighbors heard it. He slammed the door and left without caring about his mother who had just recovered from her injuries.
No wonder Li Qing came so late today, now there is an explanation.
But these things have nothing to do with her, and are not within her consideration.
It snowed heavily for several days in a row, and the snow was up to your knees when you stepped out.
I’m worried when it doesn’t snow, and I’m also worried when it snows heavily.
After several daily meetings, the sky finally cleared up on the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, but the temperature did not rise at all, and it became even colder.
