"The fish is hooked."
When Gu Xiangbei passed by that person, the other party whispered these words.
Gu Xiangbei's eyes darkened instantly, and his whole demeanor changed instantly.
He walked for a while, slowly entered an alley, and disappeared into the alley.
On the other side, Jiang Xiaoqiao happily chatted with 5200 as they returned to the steel plant's staff quarters.
[Host, why don't you meet with Gu Xiangbei in the next few days? ]
[He happens to be in Beijing too, so you two can spend more time together and get your heart pumping.]
[Things have their priorities.] Jiang Xiaoqiao said: [My most important thing right now is to deal with Xu Aili and Jiang Daqiao and the others, and warn them not to cause trouble again.]
[As for Gu Xiangbei, he's not a tool for me to use to get my heart rate. I have feelings for him and I want to develop a serious relationship with him in the future.]
5200 understood that its host was still infatuated and loyal.
Forget it, forget it. Anyway, Gu Xiangbei can defeat thousands of troops by himself. If the host wants to hang himself on a tree, then he can hang himself on a tree.
Jiang Xiaoqiao walked slowly into the family compound and chatted with the old men and women along the way.
"Xiao Qiao, are you back from outside?"
"Yes, Aunt Wang, I went to meet some classmates this afternoon."
"Go home quickly. Your meal is already cooked. Your elder sister and the others have already gone home."
"Oh, I get it, Aunt Wang. I'll go home right away."
…
As soon as I returned to the Jiang family courtyard, Jiang Hongjun, Xu Aili and Jiang Daqiao were all there.
"Dad, stepmother, sister, I'm back." Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "I've kept you waiting for a long time."
Jiang Hongjun responded with a frown and wanted to say something, but Xu Aili held his hand.
"Lao Jiang, the child just came back. Let's talk after dinner if you have anything to say."
Jiang Daqiao had a smug look on his face, while Jiang Xiaoqiao had a feeling that they would not be able to finish the meal.
Fortunately, she and Gu Xiangbei had gone to have a roast duck meal before she came back, otherwise she would have really gone hungry.
"Mom, what's wrong with Jiang Xiaoqiao doing such a shameful thing? Why don't you tell me now?"
Jiang Daqiao said, "Things like this should be clarified and resolved sooner rather than later, before our family's reputation is ruined!"
"Da Qiao, your sister just came back..." Xu Aili persuaded gently, but the corners of her mouth were raised, and her eyes showed hypocritical worry.
Jiang Hongjun said, "Aili, Da Qiao is right. We should ask about this matter clearly."
"Xiao Qiao, let me ask you, who was the man you had lunch with at the state-owned restaurant?"
"Why on earth have you returned to the city?" Jiang Hongjun asked. "Could it be that you really did something shady in the countryside and sneaked back here?"
Jiang Daqiao gloated from the side and said, "Xiao Qiao, I urge you to tell the truth quickly."
"That guy at noon looked like a country bumpkin. Was he from the same brigade you went to? Did you two date before? Did you do anything shameful?"
"Xiao Qiao, come on, tell me, is what your sister said right?"
Jiang Daqiao gloated over the other's misfortune, while Xu Aili was responsible for adding fuel to the fire.
[Host, please explain quickly.]
[No rush, let's collect their heartbeats first.]
[There are only a few +1+1s, like mosquito legs. No matter how long it takes, it won't be as long as Gu Xiangbei's one minute.]
[Even mosquito legs are meat, and it’s meat contributed to me by my dear “family.”]
Jiang Xiaoqiao raised her lips. Jiang Daqiao saw it and shouted, "You can still laugh, Jiang Xiaoqiao, you really have no shame."
"No matter what I do, I'm still better than you, big sister." Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "Zhou Xu is just a mama's boy, a man who is irresponsible and petty. Only you treat him like a treasure."
"You're always praising him before you even get married. Let me guess, when you two were dating, all the meals and things you went out to eat at were paid for by you, right?"
Jiang Daqiao pursed her lips, and her momentum suddenly weakened a lot.
"Me, Zhou Xu and I are a couple, so what's wrong with me spending some money on my partner?"
"Okay, okay, if you want to spend money on him, go ahead."
Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "He spent the woman's money before the wedding, and after the wedding, he will chew all your bones."
Jiang Daqiao straightened his body and said, "Jiang Xiaoqiao, stop talking nonsense. You are just jealous of me!"
"You're just jealous that I can marry into the Zhou family, jealous that I can marry someone as good as Zhou Xu, but you can only marry a country bumpkin. You are jealous of me!"
Yes, for the sake of convenience, Jiang Daqiao nicknamed Gu Xiangbei, who was dressed in ordinary clothes, a country bumpkin.
"That's enough!" Jiang Hongjun said, "Keep your voice down! Is this really glorious?"
"Da Qiao, I won't talk about you today," Jiang Hongjun said. "Xiao Qiao, tell me, why did you return to the city? What is your relationship with that man?"
"Have you ever been bullied in the countryside?"
Jiang Xiaoqiao snorted coldly and looked at Jiang Hongjun coldly.
"Dad, in your heart, the last question is what you care about most, right?"
"What you care about is never whether I am living a good life or not, or whether I am happy or not."
"What you care about most is your position as factory director, the affairs of the steel plant, and the good reputation of the Jiang family!"
"Xiao Qiao..."
"Jiang Hongjun! Do you still remember my mother? Less than two years after she passed away, you brought Xu Aili and Jiang Daqiao in."
"Do you know what kind of life I have been living at home these years?"
"You know something about it, right? It's just that these things are not big things in your eyes and are not enough to affect you."
"And why did I go to the countryside?! It was because Xu Aili and Jiang Daqiao were constantly plotting against me. I was tired of staying at home, so I just followed their wishes and went to the countryside..."
Jiang Xiaoqiao wiped the tears from her face and said with grief, "Dad, can you please use your eyes to take a good look and see what kind of hypocrisy is going on in this family every day?"
"Look at the disagreements between us. See with your own eyes instead of just listening to what others say!"
"Jiang Daqiao just made up a few words, a person who was made up out of thin air, and you believed it just like that. You really disappoint me."
After saying this, Jiang Xiaoqiao hurried back to the room and slammed the door shut.
In the yard, Jiang Daqiao murmured, "What fabrication? I clearly saw her eating at the same table with a man."
Jiang Hongjun looked at Jiang Daqiao and remained silent.
"Dad, I really saw it..."
"Okay, stop talking!" Jiang Hongjun said, "Da Qiao, let me ask you, you saw Xiao Qiao eating at the same table with someone, right?"
"yes."
"So you just saw them eating at the same table, but you didn't go over to ask or check."
“Is it weird that there are so many people at dinner time and everyone is sharing a table?!”
