Chapter 151 Extra: Jiang Minzhi [1]



Chapter 151 Extra: Jiang Minzhi [1]

The year they graduated from college, Jiang Xuanzhi and Li Yanqing were 21 years old. The legal age for men to get married is 22, and Li Yanqing still has a month left. The two were not in a hurry and slowly prepared the items needed for the wedding.

This year marks the third year that the two have been together. The rented house next to the school has not yet been returned and it is still as warm as before.

The evening breeze blew through the shell wind chimes hanging by the window, making beautiful sounds of waves.

Li Yanqing held red paper and a pair of scissors in his hands, and cut the paper seriously. In the gift box were the auspicious dragon and phoenix, twin flowers, and the word "囍" that he had cut.

Jiang Xinzhi carried a small kettle and watered the yellow roses in the vase on the table. At the same time, he picked up the strawberries in the bowl and put them into his mouth. He fed him one and said, "Cut it nicely. I don't want any that don't look nice."

Li Yanqing put the strawberry into his mouth, kissed her fingertips, and smiled: "Don't worry, it will definitely look good."

The phone on the table vibrated slightly. Jiang Xinzhi picked it up and clicked on WeChat.

Auntie: [Zhizhi, dinner is almost ready. When will you be back? I made your favorite lotus leaf steamed chicken and Dongpo pork tonight.]

Steamed chicken in lotus leaf and Dongpo pork are two of Auntie’s best dishes, and they are also Jiang Xuanzhi’s favorite dishes.

She smiled and replied: [Be right back! Heart JPG]

Jiang Xinzhi picked up the bag on the sofa and walked towards the entrance, saying, "Li Li, I'm going home first and will come back tomorrow."

Li Yanqing put down the half-cut "囍" character in his hand, walked behind her, pulled her into his arms, and hugged her: "Kiss me before you leave."

Jiang Minzhi smiled with a smile on his face, turned around, and kissed him twice on the face, one on the left and one on the right: "One for one, one free."

Li Yanqing bent down and kissed her, and said, "Be careful on the road, and send me a message when you get home."

"I know, I know." Jiang Xinzhi changed his shoes, opened the door of the rented house and left.

Li Yanqing looked at her back with a faint smile on his face.

Half an hour later, Jiang Xinzhi returned to the Jiang family, sent a message to Li Yanqing that he had arrived home, washed his hands and had his meal.

The chicken leg of the steamed chicken in lotus leaf was given to her by her aunt and to her younger brother Jiang Xian'an.

After dinner, Jiang Xianan went upstairs to play games, and Jiang Xianzhi sat on the sofa, feeling a little tired.

Auntie handed her a plate of lactobacillus tablets and said, "Little greedy cat."

"It's because my aunt's cooking is so amazing that I really can't help but eat it." Jiang Xinzhi took it and ate a few.

My uncle picked up a cup of tea, took a sip slowly, and asked, "Xinzhi, I heard from the housekeeper that you are preparing items related to the wedding?"

Jiang Minzhi nodded: "Well, let's prepare slowly first. Yan Qing will not be twenty-two in a month."

Uncle said calmly: "No need to prepare, you and him are not suitable. Pei Jinyan, the eldest son of the Pei family, is young and promising, you..."

Jiang Xinzhi interrupted him and said, "Why not? We have been together for three years and have never quarreled. He has always been very good to me."

The uncle's face turned cold, and he put the teacup on the table and said harshly: "Jiang Minzhi, watch your attitude when you speak. I am your uncle, and you are going to disobey me for an outsider?"

Jiang Xinzhi: "I am just talking about the facts."

Aunt: "Zhizhi, your uncle is also doing this for your own good. You were raised by the rich Jiang family. Li Yanqing's family is poor. How can he take care of you? Is it just a meager scholarship that is not worth mentioning? Falling in love and getting married are two different things. Pei Jinyan's family background and character are one in a million."

Jiang Xuanzhi frowned slightly: "I have education and hands, I can take care of myself."

The uncle sneered: "You can take care of yourself, but what about your elderly grandmother lying in bed? The treatment costs 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a day. If you leave the Jiang family, what will you give her to keep her alive?"

Auntie: "Why did it come to this? You two uncle and nephew are both stubborn. Why can't you just talk it out calmly?"

Uncle: "She's grown up now, she's independent now, why would she listen to uncles and aunts?"

Auntie: "You're getting more and more aggressive. Zhizhi is the most obedient. Give her some time."

Jiang Xinzhi wanted to say that Jiang's company was founded by her parents, so isn't it natural for her to use the money from the company to pay for her grandmother's medical treatment? But when the words came to her lips, she changed her words: "Li Yanqing is the person I have decided to spend my life with, and I will not marry anyone else except him. Please ask uncle and aunt to pay for grandma's medical treatment first, and I will pay it back when I work in the future."

Hearing this, the uncle was furious. He stood up, walked to her, and slapped her in the face.

Jiang Xinzhi was hit so hard that his face turned to one side, and a red slap mark quickly appeared on his fair face: "If you are not satisfied, you can continue."

Uncle raised his hand, and Auntie stepped forward to hold it back: "That's enough."

Auntie: "Zhizhi, what you just said was a stab in the back of your uncle and me. Your brother and sister-in-law died young, and your uncle and I treated you as our own daughter and raised you up like our own. We really don't want to see you fall into this fire pit. Why don't you understand our painstaking efforts?"

"I can listen to you two in everything, except marriage. I will only follow my own wishes." Jiang Xinzhi said, then got up and went upstairs.

Auntie sighed and said, "Forget it. I think Zhizhi is really interested in Li Yanqing."

Uncle said unhappily: "It is because of your habit that you have raised her to be like this. Do you think it is so easy to marry into the Pei family? If Xin'an was a girl, this marriage would not be Jiang Xinzhi's turn. As long as the marriage with the Pei family is successful, who dares to say that I am a person who eats out the family's wealth?"

The next day.

Jiang Xinzhi was about to go to the hospital to see his grandmother, but the door couldn't be opened.

The bodyguard standing outside the door said, "Miss, the master said that you cannot leave the bedroom until you have thought it through."

The cell phone was in her bag and fell in the lobby downstairs last night, and Jiang Xuanzhi forgot to bring it up.

And so she was locked in her bedroom for a week, like a closed-off person.

On Sunday night, her uncle opened her door with his key and said, "Let's talk."

Jiang Xinzhi sat on the sofa, looking at the rain outside the window.

"The money saved in the hospital has been used up. Your reply today will determine your grandmother's life span." As the uncle said this, he handed her a photo of her grandmother lying on a hospital bed with a lot of medicine tubes inserted in her mouth.

Jiang Xinzhi looked at her grandmother's skinny body, her eyes were red, she couldn't help sobbing, her stomach was churning, she fell to the carpet, hugged the trash can and vomited. She vomited only water, she didn't eat a single bite of the food delivered to her in the past few days, and drank the water in the bathroom when she was hungry.

She knew this was childish, but she had no other choice. She thought her uncle would compromise with her, just like he had done before, but this time, it obviously didn't work.

Jiang Xinzhi looked up at him and said, "Which reply satisfies you most?"

Uncle: "Break up with Li Yanqing and marry into the Pei family."

Jiang Xianzhi pulled the corners of her mouth, the expression on her face looked like crying, but more like laughing. She felt like her heart was being cut back and forth by a rusty blunt knife. She asked, "The reason you raised me is to use me as a bargaining chip for marriage and pave the way for Jiang Xian'an, right?"

Uncle said calmly: "Xinzhi, this is a best of both worlds thing, don't say it so harshly, the Jiang family is your mother's family, we are well, then you can be well."

Jiang Xinzhi looked like a lifeless puppet, staring at something without focus, and asked softly, "Do I have to marry into the Pei family?"

"Your grandmother's life is in your hands. Give me an answer before midnight." The uncle put her cell phone on the table and left the bedroom.

Jiang Xuanzhi suddenly recalled a very ordinary rainy night when she was five years old. A family of three was returning from a trip and an oncoming truck was overloaded and overturned, destroying several cars. She was the only one who survived the accident.

My uncle and aunt picked her up and put her together on that rainy night.

But on this rainy night, she, who had been put together with great difficulty, was shattered into pieces, and her original appearance could no longer be seen.

Faced with insignificant family affection, the uncle and aunt finally chose interests. It was the first time that Jiang Xinzhi faced the ugly desires of human nature.
