Chapter 436 Jiang Duo gets something for nothing
Several elders in the family looked at Jiang Shoucheng’s face.
They knew that Jiang Shoucheng was used to being tolerant of Feng Qiaozhen, and they were worried that if Feng Qiaozhen suddenly showed weakness, he would soften his heart. But unexpectedly, Jiang Shoucheng did not respond, but turned his back and stopped looking at her. Feng Qiaozhen was pushed out of the door of her grandfather’s house. Standing at the door, she didn’t dare to cry anymore, because now she was despised in the Jiang family. If the neighbors came to see the excitement, the Jiang family would probably tell about the things she had done. How could she survive here in the future? As soon as Feng Qiaozhen left, Jiang Shoucheng lowered his eyes and walked to the sofa and sat down weakly. The living room became quiet for a while. The third uncle, who had hardly spoken since then, spoke up: "Brother, I know you feel bad now, but you still have to consider the practical issues. You have been preparing for retirement during this time." Jiang Shoucheng sighed and nodded: "The process has already begun. I went to your house today because I was troubled by your sister-in-law... Feng Qiaozhen asking for the house. I wanted to borrow money from you, but now there is no need." Jiang Shounuo glanced sideways and exchanged a glance with Tian Hongxiu. Tian Hongxiu nodded, and Jiang Shounuo immediately said: "Buying a house is still necessary. You need a place to live after the divorce. Your family's money has not been in your hands for these years. I will pay for the house." Jiang Duo sat aside, his tone as cold as ever: "Uncle, I decided on behalf of my parents. The money for you to buy the house will be shared equally by them and your third uncle." Jiang Shoucheng, who was already in his fifties, had tears in his eyes: "Then I... thank you first, I will definitely pay you back. " Tian Hongxiu smiled and waved her hands: "Brother, we are all family, don't say such things, you don't have to pay it back, you can be fine in the future, stay away from the bad days in the past, it is better than anything else." Jiang Shoucheng sighed helplessly: "The money must be paid back. All these years, I, as the eldest brother, have never done anything for you. On the contrary, you have always been for me, for your eldest... Feng Qiaozhen swallowed your anger, and let you suffer because of me, I'm really... sorry." "What's the matter, brother, let's not mention this, it's all in the past," Jiang Shounuo thought of something, turned to look at Jiang Duo: "By the way, Xiaoduo, no one in our family has thought of investigating the old affairs of your aunt's family for so many years, why did you suddenly think of investigating this?" Jiang Duo glanced at Mingzhu, his eyes asking for advice. Mingzhu shrugged, "Uncle San, I asked Jiang Duo to check it out. Before, when Siansun was chatting with me, he mentioned the matter of my uncle and aunt. I thought many things were strange, so I asked Jiang Duo to check it out. I didn't expect that this matter was actually true." Tian Hongxiu looked at Mingzhu's face with approval, "Luckily Zhuzhu came, otherwise, we fools would have been kept in the dark for our whole lives, and your uncle would never have escaped the sea of suffering." It's no wonder that they didn't think much about it. After all, people of this generation attach great importance to family ties. Who would have thought that uncle and cousin would harm their own niece? But since we are talking about escaping from the sea of suffering, Mingzhu turned to look at Jiang Shoucheng: "Uncle, I actually have an opinion. I think it is not the right time for you to go out and buy a house now." Several people looked at Mingzhu, and Mingzhu did not hide anything. "Based on my brief understanding of my aunt, she should not divorce you easily. As long as you do not divorce, even if you retire and have to move out of the dormitory of the unit, you are still a member of the Jiang family. The Jiang family has always been united and it is impossible for you to sleep on the street. That means that as long as my aunt does not divorce, even if she does not pay a penny, she can rely on you to come back and show your face to find a place to live." Several people in the room agreed with Mingzhu's words, and this matter might not end so easily. Jiang Shoucheng also nodded: "Zhuzhu is right, she won't divorce me easily." "Well, even if she really agrees to divorce you, she will probably skin you alive and squeeze out all the value of the Jiang family. This is the nature of greedy people." Tian Hongxiu was a little annoyed: "Does your uncle have to be supported by her for the rest of his life?" Mingzhu smiled: "Aunt, your aunt has a trump card." "What trump card?" "Uncle's three children." Tian Hongxiu raised her hand and slapped her forehead: "Look at how confused I am. Yes, those three children and Jiang Zhen's granddaughter are all Jiang's children. How can they be given up so easily? It seems that this marriage is really not easy to divorce." Jiang Shoucheng sighed heavily. Jiang Duo knew that his uncle must be feeling upset at the moment, so he comforted him: "Uncle, the purpose of investigating this matter is not only to make you divorce, but also to let you know the truth. In this way, even if you cannot get a divorce, you don't have to tolerate and give in to everything at home from now on." Jiang Shoucheng nodded: "I really should thank you and Zhuzhu for this matter, otherwise my life in chaos... would really become a joke." The living room was quiet for a while, and Tian Hongxiu asked: "What should we do now? If brother doesn't buy the house, do we have to go back to live here? In this situation, if we go back... I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will take advantage of the opportunity to persuade us." The old man slapped his hand on the armrest of the sofa: "Why go back? The house is not available for the time being ." Mai, Shoucheng, you can live with me first. And Shounuo, your uncle Feng is your eldest brother's savior. His daughter was harmed by Feng Qiaozhen's family because of your eldest brother. I feel guilty. Please take some time to visit Qiaohui's hometown during this period and leave some money for your uncle Feng on my behalf. " Jiang Shounuo nodded. Before he could respond, Jiang Duo said, "Grandpa, I'll arrange for someone to go there secretly. Now that uncle and aunt haven't divorced yet, if we suddenly interact with the eldest house of the Feng family, it will inevitably cause people to gossip, which will be bad for uncle and Feng Qiaohui. " The old man thought about it and it made sense: "Yes, what if Qiaohui's second-rate husband finds out about this and makes things difficult for her again? I'm so angry. You decide on this matter. Don't make it too obvious." "Okay, I know it's getting late. Grandpa, you and uncle should go to bed early. Zhuzhu and I will go back first." "Okay, you guys go back." Mingzhu and her husband left with the uncle and aunt. After saying goodbye, they went home. Jiang Duo helped Mingzhu get into the car, holding her waist with one hand and asking worriedly with the other hand: "Are you hungry?" "No, I ate a piece of cake this afternoon. Oh, by the way, I forgot to show off to you that my cake is really good. You can try it when you go home." "Okay."
Jiang Duo turned his head and looked at Qiao Bin again: "Qiao Bin, we can collect the clues we left at the Feng family. Let them go and tell Liu Yufu that what happened thirty years ago has been exposed. Feng Qiaozhen has betrayed him. As long as he admits his mistakes and points out that he was instigated by Feng Qiaozhen's family and signs a seal, we can let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, we will send him to the public security bureau."
"Yes."
Hearing this, Mingzhu looked at Jiang Duo in surprise.
Wow! This guy just... got something for nothing!
