Chapter 622 Worried about her more than my dad
The day Jiang Yu came out of confinement was Ningning's full-month banquet.
They didn't want to make it too grand, so they simply set up a few tables in the courtyard.
But there were far more people than Jiang Yu had imagined, and the courtyard was almost full.
Some people came uninvited, and they were so enthusiastic that Jiang Yu couldn't help but let them sit down and have a drink.
So many tables were added before they could barely sit down.
Amid the congratulations, He Ning, the little protagonist, slept particularly soundly, not hearing anything outside the window.
Jiang Yu was busy enough that his face was stiff from smiling.
The old man stuffed a big red envelope into Jiang Yu's hands in front of everyone, which was heavy and particularly bulging.
This red envelope was enough to show how much he valued this great-granddaughter.
Jiang Yu accepted all the gifts.
But He Jingyi, who was traveling with her, looked extremely dissatisfied with her.
And the eyes of He Jundao and Chu Yunmei seemed to want to cut a piece of flesh from her.
Except for the old man, it can be said that none of the people in the He family came to congratulate sincerely.
After the banquet, there was a mess left. Jiang Yu asked someone to help clean up.
The old man drank a lot of wine and left first. The remaining three people, He Jingyi, were waiting for a chance to talk to Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu was busy running around and had no time to pay attention to them.
Finally, Chu Yunmei lost her temper and spoke first: "Jiang Yu, there are so many elders waiting here, isn't it a bit impolite of you to do this?"
Jiang Yu laughed, "Is this the first time you know I'm impolite?"
Chu Yunmei was angry and held her breath, but she couldn't do anything about her.
Before she came, she knew that she came here today to ask for help.
He Jingyi said in a deep voice: "Why don't you tell me first, what do you want to release your Aunt Wei. If you have any conditions, just mention them, and I can meet them."
Jiang Yu raised the corners of his lips, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
"A human trafficker, you want me to let her go? I want her to die, just go in and stab her."
He Jingyi's face darkened. The fact that Wei Xiuru was in jail has not been spread yet.
But once it gets out, the label of "human trafficker" will be stuck on her head and can't be removed.
In the eyes of outsiders, he and Wei Xiuru are one!
Wei Xiuru has a bad reputation, what good can he get?
"Your Aunt Wei was just joking with you. Who told you to be disrespectful to her before? That's why her methods were a little more violent."
Jiang Yu listened coldly to his distortion of right and wrong.
"Comrade He Jingyi, the reason why my daughter can still be safe and sound with me and her father is because of our vigilance, not because Wei Xiuru showed mercy! If we hadn't found her, my daughter would have been sold to the mountains and she would never get out in her life."
Jiang Yu walked slowly to him, looked down at him, and had a stern look in his eyes.
"Do you know what kind of ending a girl who is trafficked to the mountains will face? Even if you haven't experienced it, you must have read the news, right? Once she falls into a wolf's den, she is no longer a person, but just a reproductive tool, giving birth to one child after another until she gives birth to a son."
She looked at He Jingyi coldly and sneered.
"It's you who don't want to acknowledge her, but He Ning is your granddaughter. Even animals have feelings of protection for their children, but you don't."
"If He Dongqi was sold as a gigolo, would you still think this joke is funny?"
He Jingyi was furious. "Didn't those things you said happen? Ning Ning is by your side, nothing happened to her! Even if Wei Xiuru had any bad intentions, she didn't succeed. Why do you have to be so aggressive!"
At this point, Jiang Yu knew that he and he were not on the same page, and there was no need to say more.
"You say I'm aggressive, then just take it as I am! I will never let go of someone like Wei Xiuru who could hurt my daughter at any time. Not to mention her, even if it's you, I'll still send you in."
He Tingyue finally sent the last guest away and walked in from outside.
He glanced at He Jingyi and said coldly: "You are a soldier, but you actually tried to protect the child traffickers. I still overestimated your bottom line."
The contempt in his eyes made He Jingyi feel uncomfortable as if he was stabbed by needles.
He Tingyue's eyes were very similar to Wei Baiyun.
When Wei Xiuru showed up with He Dongqi, Wei Baiyun was not sad, but only indifference and contempt in his eyes.
It was like he was just a piece of trash with low character.
Although Wei Xiuru's family background and character are not as good as Wei Baiyun, she is willing to be humble and never act high and mighty in front of him.
"She did something wrong, but she is my wife and your stepmother after all!"
He Jundao followed and advised: "Tingyue, we are all family. If Wei Xiuru gets into trouble, it will not be good for you."
He Tingyue raised his eyebrows, "My uncle seems to be more worried about her than my dad."
Jiang Yu almost couldn't help laughing. He Tingyue's words hit the nail on the head, causing the three people opposite to change their faces.
Especially Chu Yunmei, she was already extremely dissatisfied with Wei Xiuru because of the nine thousand yuan.
A woman's sixth sense is the most accurate. She always feels that there seems to be a secret between He Jundao and Wei Xiuru.
However, she clearly had doubts, but she didn't dare to think deeply.
He Jundao's guilt turned into anger, and he scolded: "Since you call me uncle, you should know that I am the elder. Can you make such a joke casually?"
Jiang Yu said coldly: "Since it is a joke, no one will take it seriously. Why should you be angry?"
Before He Jundao opened his mouth, Chu Yunmei refuted Jiang Yu's words.
"This is rude, anyone who hears it will be angry, there should be a limit to joking!"
Jiang Yu heard her words, which seemed to be self-deception.
"You can think whatever you want. It has nothing to do with me. The banquet is over. Please leave."
He Jingyi was a little anxious. "But about your Aunt Wei..."
Jiang Yu looked cold. "If you mention it again, I will find a way to accuse Wei Xiuru of more crimes."
"You dare!" He Jingyi was furious.
Jiang Yu confronted him without fear, "You can try."
The final result of the argument was naturally that He Jing left in anger.
Although He Jundao restrained his emotions, Jiang Yu still noticed his helplessness and headache.
His concern for Wei Xiuru seemed to have exceeded the boundaries of a younger uncle for his elder sister-in-law.
After a long time, Jiang Yu had originally put Yuan Jiayin's matter behind him.
But now he has to think about it again.
Yuan Jiayin and He Dongqi have the same Guanyin pendant. He Jundao's concern for Wei Xiuru can't be a coincidence.
She glanced at He Tingyue. If this was true, it would be a shocking scandal in the He family.
If the old man knew, he would be devastated.
He Tingyue naturally understood what Jiang Yu could think of.
"Don't worry about them, just live our lives well."
Jiang Yu has finished her confinement and it's almost time for her to go back to work. She can't be lazy anymore.
That day, Lan Raoping brought someone with her.
This person was her aunt from her hometown. She didn't dress well, but she was neat and tidy, and she looked like a particular person.
"How old are you, aunt?"
Aunt Lan said, "I'm just fifty this year."
She spoke slowly and didn't sound like a loudmouth.
Jiang Yu had a good impression of her when they first met.
"I provide food and accommodation here, 25 yuan a month. If you do well in the future, you can get more money. If you are willing, stay and try it out first."
Aunt Lan was overjoyed. She was originally afraid that she was shabby and Jiang Yu would look down on her.
"I am willing! I have no children and I am alone. As long as you don't mind."
Jiang Yu laughed, "Then it's settled. You live in that room. The master bedroom is opposite, and my aunt lives next door. When I return to work, my aunt will help take care of the children at home, and you can help her with the housework."
Aunt Lan thought that she would at most occupy a storage room, but she didn't expect that the room Jiang Yu gave her was very spacious, with a closet and a wardrobe.
This is much better than what she had in the countryside.
She sat on the kang and wiped her tears. If it weren't for her niece Lan Raoping who cared about her, she would have been tortured to death.
