Chapter 28 Chapter 28
Lin Fei also ran over quickly. She grabbed Ruirui's small hand and held it tightly.
She looked at her daughter whom she had missed for a long time. She couldn't look at her enough. She wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. She said excitedly: "Ruirui is back."
Because she forced her daughter to get married, Ruirui's unwilling eyes always appeared in her mind. Every time Lin Fei thought of it, she felt extremely guilty.
She was persuaded by her old man and knew that Jia Guoye was a good young man who could be trusted, but the pain in her heart did not ease at all.
In the face of her daughter's request for help, she actually turned a blind eye despite the pain.
It was because of this guilt that Lin Fei dared not face her daughter again, and could only keep asking her son and eldest daughter about the recent situation of her youngest daughter.
"Sister."
"Mom."
Jia Yourui was held by her sister and mother, holding hands, feeling warm in her heart and a little wet in the corners of her eyes.
At that time, her mother and sister were still young, and overlapping with the memories of decades later, there was a wonderful feeling.
"Aunt, you are so beautiful today." Feng Shiyu exclaimed.
Jia Mingyu said, "Aunt is beautiful every day." Children
speak without restraint, speaking directly from their hearts.
He looked at his aunt whom he hadn't seen for a long time, with a little doubt on her chubby little face: "But she seems to be more beautiful today."
Jia Youqian held her sister's face, looked at her carefully, and said with a smile: "Our Ruirui has grown up a little more."
Lin Fei held her daughter's hand and looked at Jia Yourui with a loving look in her eyes.
She said lovingly, "In a few months she will be seventeen, our Ruirui is a big girl."
Jia Yourui was originally shy, and now being stared at by so many people, her cheeks were red and shy, making people want to pinch her cheeks.
The beauty is like pink jade, dressed in pure and charming clothes, which makes people feel excited.
Seeing Zhang Chenning forgetting herself, Jia Youzhi hated her so much that his eyes were about to catch fire.
It's always like this!
The two are about the same age, and Jia Youzhi and Jia Yourui grew up almost at the same time.
Since childhood, every time Jia Yourui appeared, everyone would hug her and praise her with all the beautiful words.
Jia Youzhi was really dissatisfied. Apart from her face, how was Jia Yourui better than her?
Jia Yourui was so stupid, but her grades in school were better than hers.
From childhood to adulthood, relatives, acquaintances, and other people in the village said that Jia Yourui was lucky and could easily choose a son-in-law with her rare good looks.
Jia Youzhi was indignant. She was obviously pretty, but she looked like a maid when standing next to Jia Yourui, so she didn't like playing with Jia Yourui since she was a child.
This girl was extremely spoiled. She couldn't do anything. She was spoiled by her uncle's family. If she got hurt, she would cry and wait for someone to comfort her.
Jia Youzhi couldn't get used to her coquettish behavior since she was a child, and wondered why God didn't let her suffer some real pain.
...
Then, what she hoped for happened.
When she learned that Jia Yourui's reputation was ruined and that she was forced by her uncle and aunt to marry Jia Guoye, Jia Youzhi was secretly very happy. During those days, she even drank an extra bowl of porridge.
It's really a retribution.
At first, everyone said that Jia Yourui would definitely marry the best, but in the end, it was she, Jia Youzhi, who married the best.
When she was in junior high school, she started dating her classmate Zhang Chenning. They were a rare early love couple in the whole school.
Jia Youzhi had already figured out Zhang Chenning's family background. His mother was a primary school teacher, and his father was a manager in the factory. Such a good piece of cake could not be let go.
Throughout the three years of junior high school, she used all kinds of tricks to take advantage of him.
After graduating from junior high school, Jia Youzhi failed to pass the entrance examination to a technical secondary school. Logically, she should have returned home to help, but she was unwilling to do so and made a trick to let Zhang Chenning marry her.
This marriage made her a big star in the family and the village.
On the contrary, everyone was also discussing that Jia Yourui, whom she had envied and hated since childhood, had married a very bad man because her reputation was ruined.
Jia Youzhi was very proud from then on, and she attended almost every family gathering to enjoy everyone's envious eyes and compliments.
…
“What are you all standing here for?”
Jia Youkai came over, lowered his head and smiled at Xiaomei, and said softly: “Ruirui, come on, there are your favorite soup meatballs and salt-baked chicken on the table.”
Jia Youkai didn’t even look at Jia Guoye, thinking that this guy is really haunting, how come he followed him here.
Liu Xiuli took the chicken and net bag from Jia Guoye, and said with a smile: “Xiaomei, Guoye, it’s good that you are here, why are you carrying so many things?”
Jia Guoye smiled politely.
Liu Xiuli carried the things into the house.
Jia Youqian whispered in Jia Yourui's ear, "Don't think that Dad doesn't look at you now. He's actually very happy. He thought you wouldn't come back this morning, so he sat alone in the small warehouse smoking."
Jia Yourui listened to her sister's words and looked at her father timidly.
Dad kept his head down, picking up food with chopsticks to eat.
She mustered up her courage, walked to her father, and called softly, "Dad."
Jia Kaiqian still didn't raise his head.
Jia Yourui's eyes were not dry yet, and now seeing that her father ignored her, tears came out.
"Dad."
She sniffed, her voice a little aggrieved.
Lin Fei couldn't stand it anymore, and glared at Jia Kaiqian who was holding Qiao.
She took her daughter's hand and pulled her to sit at another table, coaxing her daughter: "Xiaobao, let's ignore him, your father is crazy."
There was an empty seat next to her, and Jia Guoye sat down with his legs raised.
...
Liu Xiuli put away the things and took two sets of bowls and chopsticks and placed them in front of them.
Jia Yourui's big eyes were red, and her eyelids drooped pitifully. She said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
"Try your sister-in-law's cooking." Liu Xiuli picked up a piece of salt-baked chicken and put it in her bowl.
She smiled and said, "Little sister, I haven't eaten my cooking for a long time."
Jia Yourui took a bite of the chicken, looked up, and said with a smile, "It's still as delicious as before, sister-in-law."
There were still tears in her eyes, but she smiled so delicately and innocently.
It makes people sigh, she is really too beautiful.
......
Jia Youzhi saw that Zhang Chenning was eating with his head down and his eyes straight, and she felt better.
She cleared her throat and asked with a smile: "Yourui, how much is the malt extract you gave to uncle? I'm also greedy and want to buy a can to drink."
Jia Youqian rolled her eyes in her heart. Here it comes again, here it comes again, Jia Youzhi is here again.
Jia Mingyu was surprised and said, "Wow, Aunt Youzhi, do you have enough money to buy yourself maltose?"
Maltose was an absolute luxury item in the heart of the four-year-old Jia Mingyu. He had only seen it when he was giving gifts. When someone gave maltose to his grandparents, they would make him a cup. The taste was so sweet that the child's mouth immediately watered as he thought about it.
Aunt Youzhi was really rich. She actually bought herself maltose. He asked his father and mother if they could buy him maltose. Without even thinking about it, his father and mother said it was impossible.
Jia Youzhi was very satisfied with her nephew's performance, and said lovingly: "Well, when your aunt buys some maltose, I'll give Mingyu a bottle then."
The four-year-old kid immediately went crazy with joy, "Thank you, aunt Youzhi!"
Jia Youzhi smiled embarrassedly and said: "Where does your aunt get the money? It's your uncle who makes money."
Zhang Chenning is an only child, and both of his parents are paid. Their living conditions are better than most people. Apart from anything else, it's really no problem for them to grit their teeth and buy a can of maltose to eat.
Jia Youzhi patted Zhang Chenning's shoulder proudly and put a piece of spicy fish into his bowl: "So, women should marry a good man. Marrying a good man is better than anything else."
When it comes to marriage, Jia Youzhi has endless "theories".
"We women, we stay at home as girls for the first half of our lives, and we have to rely on men for the second half of our lives, right?"
In fact, Jia Youzhi would have stopped talking here in the past, but today Zhang Chenning, who was staring at Jia Yourui in a trance, was very angry, so she spoke without any sense of severity.
She continued to talk incessantly:
"As long as we marry well, we women are the most successful. Don't talk about ability or good looks. Only when we marry well and the man is capable is the most real."
"Women still have to look after their own men. Only in this way can we live a comfortable life."
...
Jia Youqian was furious when she heard this. This bastard actually dared to be weird to her sister.
Not to mention Jia Youqian, Lin Fei, who was always friendly, and Liu Xiuli, who was easy to talk to, couldn't stand
it anymore. Jia Yourui finally came home, how could she be allowed to suffer this?
When Jia Youqian was about to explode, Jia Kaiqian spoke up and stopped Jia Youzhi from delivering a "long speech".
…
"Youzhi, I think we shouldn't talk too much during meals."
Uncle said coldly, lowering his head and taking a sip of wine.
"Is that so?"
Jia Youzhi was frightened by Jia Kaiqian's sudden interruption and came out of her frenzy.
She looked at the disgusted and impatient eyes of most people at the table and realized that she had indeed said a little too much. She laughed awkwardly:
"It shouldn't be too expensive, Chen Ning, go buy me a can of red wine in a few days."
Zhang Chen Ning gritted her teeth and hummed twice, trying to dig into the cracks in the ground awkwardly.
…
Jia Yourui watched this farce without getting angry. She just felt that Jia Youzhi had not changed at all compared to her memory.
She always looked unpresentable and had an inexplicable hatred towards her.
Jia Youqian was afraid that her sister would be unhappy, so she scooped a lot of her favorite meatballs in clear soup for her.
"That's enough, sister."
Jia Yourui whispered obediently, "The bowl is almost full."
Jia Youqian then stopped holding the spoon.
Feng Fengping asked, "Little sister, can you cook now?"
Jia Yourui chewed a meatball with a chubby face.
She shook her head and said, "Not yet."
"Ah?"
Feng Fengping looked surprised.
He asked, "Do you usually cook outside at home?"
