Xu Aili's words were suggestive. Every time she brought up the issue of not having a good confinement period, Jiang Hongjun would no longer dwell on the previous problem and instead show concern for her.
"Ellie, you have a headache. We should go to the hospital sometime."
"It's an old problem, and there's no cure. This is the only way." Xu Aili said, "Old Jiang, what do you want for dinner tonight? I'll make it."
"Stop it."
As soon as Jiang Hongjun said this, before Xu Aili could even raise the corners of her lips, she heard his next words.
"Let's go to the state-owned restaurant tonight. You're not feeling well, and Xiao Qiao just got home. Let's go out and have something nice to celebrate."
Jiang Xiaoqiao pursed her lips and said, "Dad, I'm hungry. I haven't eaten for three days."
"Dad will take you to dinner," Jiang Hongjun said, "If you're hungry, we can eat more."
"Old Jiang, why don't we just eat at home?" Xu Aili stopped him. "Going out to a restaurant is so expensive."
"It's a rare opportunity," Jiang Hongjun said, looking at Xu Aili's unhappy face, "Forget about the wind on your head. You can't blow the wind at this time."
Jiang Hongjun looked at them and said, "Well, I'll take Xiao Qiao out to eat, and Da Qiao, you stay home and take care of your mother. We'll pack it up for you later."
Jiang Daqiao stared at Jiang Hongjun with wide eyes, then looked at Xu Aili, and finally looked at Jiang Xiaoqiao.
"dad……"
"Dad, this arrangement is very good," Jiang Xiaoqiao interrupted Jiang Daqiao, "Sister, you and Mom take good care of yourself at home, we will be back soon."
After saying this, Jiang Xiaoqiao looked at Jiang Hongjun and said, "Dad, let's go quickly. If we're any later, the state-owned restaurant might be closed."
"Yes, yes, let's go quickly." Jiang Hongjun said, "Da Qiao, take good care of your mother, we will be back soon."
Only after watching Jiang Hongjun and Jiang Xiaoqiao walk away did Jiang Daqiao dare to speak.
"Mom, look at my dad, he's always like this!" Jiang Daqiao said, "As long as Jiang Xiaoqiao is around, he always favors her. Why? Why?"
"That's enough! Just because I'm still alive and Jiang Xiaoqiao's mother is dead!" Xu Aili sneered, "Just because of this!"
Jiang Hongjun is such a person. When they were separated, the person who stayed with him was Jiang Xiaoqiao's biological mother. He would always miss her, obey her in everything, and be very tender to her.
After the woman disappeared, Xu Aili walked in.
The person who stayed with Jiang Hongjun was Xu Aili, and he began to miss the good things about that woman...
Xu Aili glared at Jiang Daqiao and said, "If you have the energy to make trouble, you might as well think about how to send Jiang Xiaoqiao back to the countryside as soon as possible and make sure she never appears in front of us mother and daughter again!"
After saying this, Xu Aili went back to the house.
Jiang Daqiao stomped his foot heavily and shouted in anger, "Jiang Xiaoqiao!!!"
On the other side, Jiang Xiaoqiao and Jiang Hongjun left the family compound.
At this time, the family compound was the most crowded with people, and Jiang Xiaoqiao walked around the compound in the same outfit she had when she arrived.
Just like this, listening to the pleasant sound of "ding ding ding +1", coupled with the great victory just now, Jiang Xiaoqiao felt in a good mood.
The father and daughter went to a state-owned restaurant closest to the steel plant. When they arrived, Jiang Xiaoqiao said she was too hungry, so she and Jiang Hongjun ate in the restaurant together.
After they finish eating, they will take the packed food back to Xu Aili and Jiang Daqiao.
While Jiang Xiaoqiao was enjoying dinner, Gu Xiangbei, who had been busy all day, finally teamed up with his "brothers" in Jing City and captured the two traitors.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Xiaoqiao followed Jiang Hongjun back to the family compound.
When the two arrived home, the tomato noodles cooked by Xu Aili and Jiang Daqiao were just out of the pot.
Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "Did we come back too late? Sorry, sister, stepmother, I was really too hungry and couldn't help myself in the restaurant."
Xu Aili stopped Jiang Daqiao who was about to stand up and start to argue, and said: "No, we just thought that we could just have a simple meal, so we don't have to eat..."
"Is that so?" Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "Since you and your sister like noodles, can you use these that Dad and I brought back as my midnight snack?"
Jiang Xiaoqiao looked at Jiang Hongjun and said, "Dad, is it okay? I'm really hungry right now..."
"Okay, of course. Why don't we heat these dishes in the kitchen?" Jiang Hongjun said, "Your sister and the others have already cooked noodles and eaten them. They won't be able to finish these dishes anyway."
"no……"
Xu Aili glared at Jiang Daqiao and said with a forced smile, "Okay, we'll just eat noodles. As long as Xiaoqiao is full, that's fine."
"Thank you, stepmother. I'll go to the kitchen to heat it up now." Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "You can go to a restaurant if you want in the city. I'm in the countryside, and I have to walk more than ten miles of mountain roads to get to the county town!"
"Xiao Qiao, you've really suffered a lot." Jiang Hongjun said with concern.
Jiang Xiaoqiao went into the kitchen, heated up the food, and then took it directly to the locked room on the second floor.
That was the room she lived in. She hadn't lived there for some time, but she covered it with some cloth before she left, so it wasn't too dirty.
Jiang Xiaoqiao put the food she packed from the state-owned restaurant into her space as soon as she entered the room to keep it warm and fresh so she could eat it whenever she was hungry no matter how late it was.
Next, I started cleaning the room and washing up.
Xu Aili and Jiang Daqiao pretended to ask if they needed a hand, saying they wanted to help, but they didn't even move from the chair.
Jiang Xiaoqiao didn't care about them. She didn't want them to enter her room.
However, Jiang Xiaoqiao was no pushover either. She made a lot of noise while working and looked very weak.
In the end, Jiang Hongjun helped clean up the room, and Jiang Xiaoqiao just swept the floor and pretended to be weak beside him.
On the first night living in the family compound, Jiang Xiaoqiao slept soundly and comfortably.
Late at night, when Gu Xiangbei came out of the police station and returned to the guesthouse, he somehow walked around half of the city and passed by Zaohua Lane.
He stood outside the Jiang family yard for a while before leaving.
Early the next morning, Jiang Xiaoqiao heard the sound of tinkling outside the room.
"Lao Jiang, I've prepared breakfast. Do you want to wake Xiao Qiao up to eat?"
"Xiao Qiao just came back. There's no need to rush to have breakfast so early. Let her have a good rest."
"Okay, then I'll save breakfast for her."
"It's too late to get up, Dad. We all have to go to work."
"Yes, it's almost time to go to work. I'm leaving first, Ellie, Da Qiao, you guys should hurry up too."
"mom!"
"Going to work! Let's go!"
The sound of the courtyard door closing was extremely loud, and Jiang Xiaoqiao could hear it even from the second floor.
She turned over, making any more noise and breaking the door so that she would have to replace it with a new one.
After Jiang Hongjun and the other two left one after another, Jiang Xiaoqiao was the only one left in the Jiang family. She slept until after ten o'clock.
