Chapter 20
Jiang Yu originally thought that since the original owner had a grudge against them in the past and since they could not get to know each other well, it would be fine if they just had a passable relationship on the surface. But she actually took the initiative to provoke her. Although she did not have any special skills, she was no worse than others in scolding people and insulting them. Even when Jiang Zhe's nephew came to her, she would not be polite. She sneered and said, "Sister, I call you sister to give you face. Don't you know what your son is like? His finger is comparable to Jiang Zhe's. Jiang Zhe is a thousand times and ten thousand times better than him. If I were blind, I would want to marry your son."
Jiang Siyu knew that Jiang Yu was not a simple woman, but this was the first time she had faced her face to face. When she heard Jiang Yu say that her son was not as good as Jiang Zhe, she became unhappy and her face was a little distorted. She said, "You just insulted him because you couldn't get him. A woman like you is just good enough to accompany Jiang Zhe. You are not a good person."
Jiang Yu:?
You can scold me, but why do you scold Jiang Zhele? Did he provoke you?
Maybe because she knew that Jiang Zhe had a bad experience in the past, she was a little protective of him. In addition, after coming to the Jiang family, the original owner's memories of the Jiang family slowly emerged. Jiang Zhe had always been ignored in this family. His elder sister Jiang Siyu had been spoiled by the family since she was a child. When she suddenly had a younger brother, she was naturally unhappy. She was in her twenties, had an arrogant temper, and bullied her younger brother who was a few years older than her.
It was also because the original owner knew about Jiang Zhe's bad past experiences and saw that he was willing to accept everything, so his bullying of him became even more severe.
Even though she bullied Jiang Zhe when he was a child, she still felt that he was not a good person.
Jiang Yu laughed angrily: "You are a good person who bullied kids in your twenties, you are a good person who scolded your brother behind his back since he was a child, and your son, that rotten cucumber who has hooked up with countless women, is a good person."
The hero in this novel is indeed not a good person. When he later had a conflict with the heroine, he also had an affair with other women. He is a typical scumbag hero in old-fashioned novels.
Jiang Siyu didn't expect Jiang Yu to know all this. Her face suddenly turned ugly and she said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
At this time, someone discovered them. It was Jiang Zhe's mother. Seeing the two of them standing there, she hurriedly asked, "Xiaoyu, Siyu, what are you two doing standing there? Come and wash your hands and get ready for dinner."
Jiang Yu touched her belly and said to Jiang Siyu, "Sister, I am pregnant with Jiang Zhe's child now, so I am very fragile. I get angry when I hear about your son. You'd better not say anything to anger me. Otherwise, Jiang Zhe may be willing to give in to you in the past, but he won't be willing to do so in the future."
Then she turned and left.
Jiang Siyu has lived for decades and has met countless people in the business world, but she never thought that one day she would be speechless by such a girl. She wanted to lose her temper, but she didn't know what to say...
Finally, he glared coldly at her back and walked back to the sofa.
Dinner was served soon. Before Jiang Zhe took off his apron, he saw Jiang Yu looking at him with sparkling eyes. A strand of hair fell by her ear, making her look playful and cute.
Jiang Zhe sat down next to her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yu asked, "What dishes did you cook? I want to taste which one is delicious."
Jiang Yu had seen many men who would just stay in their rooms or brag on the sofa when they got home. Seeing Jiang Zhe actually took the initiative to go into the kitchen, she felt very relieved in her heart.
Although she is reluctant to go home, she is willing to help her mother with housework once she gets home, which is no better than many men.
Jiang Zhe looked at her unusually bright eyes, smiled, and then said, "I didn't cook. Auntie did, and I just helped out a bit."
Jiang Zhe's father was a little unhappy: "You went into the kitchen as soon as you came back. You don't act like a man at all."
Jiang Yu:?
Brother, are you really a role model for others? How can you say such things?
Jiang Zhe looked unhappy.
It wasn't because he was scolded by his father, but because he said these things in front of Jiang Yu.
He was used to being denied and was also used to keeping silent at this time, but he didn't want Jiang Yu to hear this.
Jiang Yu probably knew why Jiang Zhe didn't want to go home. If it were her, she wouldn't like to go home either.
Jiang Yu immediately spoke up for Jiang Zhe: "What does this kitchen have to do with whether or not you are a man? My father also goes into the kitchen and has a good relationship with my mother."
Jiang Chen said: "So your father is a nobody."
Jiang Yu spoke quickly and was talking about her former father, the original owner's father. Well, he was also a good man who went into the kitchen. It was because both of her parents were very good that the original owner was spoiled by her.
She is angry. If you keep talking like this, she will really roll up her sleeves and hit you.
Jiang Zhe had clearly seen that Jiang Yu was unhappy, so he said, "Dad, you were the ones who called us again and again to ask us to come back. If you continue to be so picky, we won't eat this meal."
Jiang Zhe rarely shows such a strong look at home. Jiang Chen looked at the cold aura revealed by his son and frowned deeply, feeling that something seemed to be out of control.
It was a rare occasion for her son to come back, so Shen Qiuli immediately tried to smooth things over by saying, "Okay, Xiaozhe finally brought Xiaoyu back, so you should all stop talking and have a good meal."
Then he called to Jiang Yu: "Xiao Yu, don't worry about it. Both father and son are like this."
The fact that both the father and the son are like this doesn't mean that every time Jiang Zhe comes back, his father will find fault with him. This kind of person is actually a teacher. It's really...
Jiang Yu felt indescribable contempt, but since Jiang Zhe's mother had already spoken, she didn't say anything. She patted Jiang Zhe's hand to reassure him.
Jiang Zhe smiled at her and whispered, "If you feel uncomfortable, let's go back early."
Jiang Yu: "It's okay."
She wanted to keep watching and see what else they could say.
Jiang Zhe's brother-in-law Lin Mu spoke up at this time: "How could Xiaozhe be so useless? I heard that Xiaozhe has now opened a company with his friends."
Jiang Zhe's father was a little surprised, but he didn't believe that he could achieve anything. "It's just playing around. What can he do? He stays at home all day long. If you don't know him, you would think he is a grown-up girl."
Lin Mu pondered and said, "Dad, Xiaozhe is not as incompetent as you said. He and his friend's company are said to be doing quite well. I have the idea of entering this field, and I need to ask Xiaozhe for advice."
Jiang Siyu had always looked down on Jiang Zhe, so naturally she had the same idea as her father, and said contemptuously: "He is still someone you can ask for advice. You can go out and ask anyone who is better than him."
Lin Mu was slightly unhappy when he heard what his wife said: "Since I asked, it means that Xiaozhe has the ability."
Jiang Siyu has always been afraid of her husband. After receiving his warning look, she dared not say a word, but she still felt that she had praised Jiang Zhe too much.
Jiang Zhe didn't know why, but he frowned and said, "I'm afraid I don't have the ability to guide you."
Lin Mu smiled: "Xiaozhe, you should have some confidence in yourself. I heard that you have been staying at home recently. As for your sister-in-law, I think you should just hire a nanny to take care of you. You should not waste your talents. There is a vacancy in our company. I think you can give it a try."
Jiang Chen said, "It's his blessing that you're willing to let him work for you. How could he not be willing?"
Jiang Zhe refused and said, "I have my own company, my brother-in-law's company, so I won't go."
Jiang Chen was very angry about his son's refusal. He stopped eating and began to teach Jiang Zhe: "Your brother-in-law is willing to take you with him. That's your blessing. It's not nice for you to stay at home every day."
Jiang Zhe: "I told you, I have my own job."
Jiang Chen: "How many years can your crappy company last? What can you learn? Your brother-in-law has been in business longer than you, can you be better than him? You will go to work at your brother-in-law's company tomorrow, and stop wasting time on your crappy company."
Jiang Yu felt that Jiang Zhe was in a good condition now. He had money and could stay at home with her. But now, Jiang Zhe's father actually denied all his son's efforts.
She looked at Lin Mu beside her. The man was smiling slightly, as if he was watching a good show, waiting for the result he wanted.
It seems that he feels that Jiang Zhe's father's coercion can help him achieve his goal.
Jiang Chen's father may not know how capable Jiang Zhe is, but Lin Mu certainly knows. He is a businessman and may know everything about Jiang Zhe. Perhaps, he came back just to dig Jiang Zhe to his side.
Jiang Yu suddenly felt angry and said, "Dad, you can check online whether Jiang Zhe's company is bankrupt or not. It is a very powerful company in his industry. He is still very young. When my brother-in-law was so young, he should not have been able to start from scratch, right?"
Lin Mu is a rich second-generation. When he was as young as Jiang Zhe, he was still playing at home. It was only after his father passed away that he started to focus on the family business.
In the novel, the introduction of the protagonist's father is more detailed than that of Jiang Zhe, but it is useless. In the novel, the protagonist's father's business ran into problems early on, and it was the protagonist who saved the day. He was a cunning businessman, and he also tried to control the protagonist, so the protagonist later took away all his power in the company, made him have a stroke, and sent him to a nursing home. In the original book, his role was not as important as that of Jiang Zhe's uncle.
Jiang Yu was smiling when he spoke. His words obviously offended Lin Mu. He briefly flashed a few traces of displeasure on his face, but he was still an old fox after all, and showed a humble look: "Yes, when Xiaozhe was this old, my father still thought I was a stubborn and dissolute boy."
Jiang Chen said: "The Lin family has such a rich family background. Your brother-in-law has been influenced by them since he was a child. Naturally, he is smarter than you."
Can this be exaggerated?
Jiang Zhe was just about to ask Jiang Yu if she had eaten enough, and if she had, they would go back, when he heard him smilingly say, "I don't know if my brother-in-law is smart or not, but I think Jiang Zhe is quite smart. Not only is he smart, but he also doesn't have the temper of some men who act like a big shot once they have money. I think that's good. Dad, you are usually busy with work and don't hear about what's going on outside, but you can find out if Jiang Zhe is good. I originally thought that Jiang Zhe was in a good school, and you had some understanding of your son's abilities. Now it seems that Jiang Zhe is not as close to you as a son-in-law. Also, you are used to putting on airs in front of your son and denying him, so how can you see his strengths? After all, if you are blind, you can go to the hospital to get treatment, but if you pretend to be blind, how can you get treatment?"
There was no way to eliminate prejudice, and Jiang Yu felt that it was useless to talk nonsense with them, so she said to Jiang Zhe coquettishly: "Jiang Zhe, I don't feel well, let's go back early."
Jiang Zhe stood up, looking worried: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yu held her stomach and said, "I feel a little sick. Maybe it's because I heard something bad or smelled the stench from other people's mouths. I feel very uncomfortable. Let's go back."
Jiang Zhe: "Okay."
Jiang Zhe's mother sent them to the door. Lin Mu, Jiang Chen and Jiang Siyu in the back all looked unhappy, but Jiang Yu had already said that she was not feeling well. If they argued with a pregnant woman, it would seem that they were too petty. They could only hold it in until their faces turned pale.
