Wu Jianguo said to Zhang Amei, "Xiaojun said we've all been fooled. This Jiang Xiaoyue is no good person; she's the one who breaks up other people's families!"
"What? Someone who breaks up other people's families? Whose family did she break up!"
"Our neighbors, Lin Dongzhe and Zhuang Xiaoting, are right here, though they seem so far away!"
"Oh! What is she doing at our house again?"
"How would I know? Maybe they saw it wasn't broken into pieces yet and wanted to push it a little harder, so they broke it into pieces?"
"She can't be that vicious, can she? I think this girl is quite nice! How could she be that kind of person?"
Wu Jianguo continued, "Yes! I don't believe it either! Just now, the old lady from the Zhuang family was praising her! She said she was popular and had a good temper, but she's been away from the orphanage for several months now, I wonder if she's changed!"
Zhang Amei was an extremely intelligent person. As soon as she heard Wu Jianguo's words, she knew there was something wrong. She quickly reminded Wu Jianguo, "Can't you understand what Old Madam Zhuang was saying in the last few sentences?"
Wu Jianguo still didn't understand and said, "It's nothing? What did you hear?"
"She said she'd been gone for a few months and didn't know if things had changed! That's an ambiguous statement; she doesn't know if it's good or bad! Maybe she said it on purpose, to remind you, to hint at something, but you didn't realize it at the time!"
Wu Jianguo then seemed to realize something and said, "Oh, the old lady is pointing at me! So I didn't realize it. What should I do now?"
So Mr. and Mrs. Wu looked at Qin Chuan, hoping he could offer some guidance.
Qin Chuan felt a little guilty when he saw the two old people's gazes. After all, they had finally found a daughter-in-law, but he had ruined her because of his words. He thought for a moment before saying, "How about this? Uncle, Aunt, just pretend you don't know anything and continue with your business. Maybe Jiang Xiaoyue was just being used. She's not a bad person at heart. If you discipline her, she might really become your daughter-in-law!"
Zhang Amei said in surprise, "Oh, we have to continue? What if it doesn't work? Wouldn't the money have been wasted?"
“Auntie, I’ve met Jiang Xiaoyue too. She doesn’t seem like a bad person. You know, she grew up in an orphanage and lacked care and love since she was little. If you treat her well, you might be able to move her and make her your true daughter-in-law!”
Zhang Amei thought for a moment and said, "Yes, this is called sincerity in exchange for sincerity, using minimal effort to achieve maximum effect. I'm willing to go all out to find a wife for my son!"
Wu Xiaojun blushed slightly and said, "I...!"
Zhang Amei glared at him and said, "What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'it's all for you'? You're not getting any younger, it's time to settle down. Since that girl came into the house yesterday, I feel that she is sincere towards you, and I also hope that you two can get together."
Wu Jianguo also said, "At this point, we can only try anything! We hope our sincerity can move her!"
Seeing Wu Xiaojun with his head down, face flushed and silent, Qin Chuan sensed that Wu Xiaojun also had feelings for Jiang Xiaoyue. So he said, "Let's leave it at that for now. If anything unexpected happens, we'll contact each other again. After all, good things take time. We can only treat each other sincerely. Even an iron rod can be ground into a needle."
Zhang Amei said, "I'm so sorry, Officer Qin, for making you come all this way for my Xiaojun!"
Qin Chuan smiled and said, "It's alright. If Xiao Jun can solve his single status, then I, as his mentor, can finally put my mind at ease. I hope they can get together!"
"Alright, I'll take your kind words! Officer Qin!"
So Wu Xiaojun and Qin Chuan left the alley.
As soon as Zhuang Xiaoting closed the door, she felt uncomfortable. She walked to the bedside, sat down, and felt more and more aggrieved. Tears streamed down her face.
Anna, who was pouring water and making tea for the two elderly people, noticed that Zhuang Xiaoting seemed a bit off and asked, "What's wrong, sister-in-law? Are you upset or unhappy?"
Zhuang Xiaoting was probably afraid that her mood would affect the old man and Anna, so she forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. I just saw Lin Dongzhe, and he left. We didn't say much, and I feel a little sad!"
"oh!"
After taking a sip of tea, Grandma Zhuang asked, "What did you hear just now? You asked Xiaojun if it was true, but we were so busy chatting with Anna that we didn't hear what they were saying outside!"
"Grandma, just now Wu Xiaojun told his dad that Jiang Xiaoyue is an orphan. I felt really sorry for Jiang Xiaoyue. Now that she's our neighbor, she has a place to call home and a place to stay!"
"Right, Xiaoting! Actually, Jiang Xiaoyue is an orphan. I told Xiaojun's dad that Xiaoyue grew up in an orphanage near our house. I watched her grow up!"
"Really? Grandma!"
Zhuang Xiaoting became interested in Jiang Xiaoyue again and asked her, "You've watched her grow up, how much do you know about her?"
Grandma Zhuang also said, "I usually don't go to places like orphanages, but Zhennan and Zhenbei often go. Sometimes when we're short of food at home, they often go there to freeload. I'm a little worried that they'll be corrupted by the children in the orphanage, so I go to look for them. Occasionally I'll run into Xiaoyue, so I can recognize her!"
"So Jiang Xiaoyue knows Zhennan and Zhenbei!"
Upon hearing Zhuang Xiaoting's words, Grandma Zhuang knew that they couldn't continue the conversation. If they did, Zhuang Xiaoting would probably try to pin some bad things on Zhuang Zhennan. So she smiled and said, "Xiaoting, you should lie down and rest! Sitting for too long can strain your stomach and isn't good for the baby!"
Zhuang Xiaoting knew that her grandmother was trying to change the subject, and she also knew that she couldn't continue the conversation because it would become awkward. So she said, "Okay, Grandma, you two talk, I'm going to take a nap!"
As Zhuang Xiaoting spoke, she lay down on the bed, her head turned inward as she thought about something. As she thought, tears streamed down her face, wetting the pillow she was using.
As soon as Wu Xiaojun and Qin Chuan stepped out of the alley, they were spotted by Wu Shanshan and Jiang Xiaoyue. Wu Shanshan wanted to greet Wu Xiaojun, but he got into his car and left.
Wu Shanshan, standing beside Jiang Xiaoyue, said, "That Xiaojun is really something. He comes home for a visit and doesn't even bother to check on his family."
Jiang Xiaoyue said, "He works for the government, so naturally he has government affairs to do. You can't blame him for that!"
Wu Shanshan said with a smile, "Okay, Xiaoyue is the most understanding. That's right, a woman like her knows how to care for others. I didn't misjudge you, and I've decided to consider you my sister-in-law. If anyone tries to stir up trouble again, I'll make them pay!"
"Stirring up trouble? Who said anything bad about me to you?"
Wu Shanshan pointed to the breakfast shop across the street and said, "That guy surnamed Song said you're not a good person and told my parents to be wary of you!"
Jiang Xiaoyue smiled sweetly at Wu Shanshan and said, "Sister, do you think I'm a bad person?"
Wu Shanshan stared at Jiang Xiaoyue for a good ten seconds, then suddenly chuckled and said, "You're a bad person? How could that be? I would never believe it even if you killed me. Don't worry, sister-in-law, from today onwards, if anyone speaks ill of you again, I'll fight them to the death!"
Whether it was excitement or something else, Jiang Xiaoyue's eyes were a little moist. She said, "Thank you for your trust, sister. If I marry Xiaojun, I will definitely live with him wholeheartedly. Even if he points a gun at me, I will not divorce him!"
"Okay, I support you. If Xiaojun bullies you, come and tell me. I'll beat him to a pulp. We sisters must be of one mind!"
"Yes, I'll listen to you, sister. I'll take care of you when you're in confinement. Your husband is a man, he's clumsy and rough, he definitely won't be as careful as me!"
"Yes! We'll have to rely on my sister-in-law then. Although I have a sister-in-law, we've never been in contact. Who else can we rely on if not you?"
