Xie Jing said with a smile: "You mean, my mother has been partial to me for so many years, and I have been wronged at home. I deserve all this, and I deserve to suffer it? You tell me that I have been wronged, and from then on, all these things are over? Can all this be erased with just one sentence?"
Grandma Liu was stunned. Why was Xie Jing acting out of the ordinary? Didn't everyone usually just let things go after a few words? Why was she still insisting?
Liu Limin glared at Xie Jing: "What do you want?"
"I didn't mean anything," Xie Jing said calmly, not taking Liu Liming's resentment to heart. "I didn't intend to bring this up, but you seem to be treating me like a fool and completely forgetting the conditions I agreed to when I married you."
"What conditions?" Grandma Liu's heart skipped a beat and she immediately asked why she had never heard Liu Liming mention it.
Xie Jing smiled: "You don't know? Back then, Xie Wuyou refused to agree to the marriage, and the family company was in urgent need of funds. Mom came to me and asked me to arrange a marriage on her behalf. You all know all this."
"Of course I didn't agree, but Mom kept begging me, citing her kindness in raising me for so many years, so I agreed to the marriage. Mom and Dad also said that after the marriage, all matters of the Xie family would have nothing to do with me. This is an agreement signed by Mom and Dad personally, in black and white, so it can't be false."
"By the way, Xie Wuyou was there at the time. If grandma and aunt want to see the agreement, just ask my parents. I didn't exaggerate anything."
"Why, it's only been a few days, and you've already forgotten everything? Maybe it's because I won't be in this family anymore, so you were so perfunctory when it came to preparing my dowry. If Zhou Jiyun hadn't sent me a wedding dress and jewelry to save my face, the Xie family would have been slapped in the face by others a long time ago."
Liu Limin's sister-in-law was thinking again and again, so Xie Jing's marriage was basically selling her daughter? And then she actually signed such an agreement?
Grandma Liu slapped Liu Liming on the back a few times: "You never told me this before... She's your own daughter, you... How could you..."
There was already a hint of tears in her voice, and Xie Jing hurriedly stopped her: "Please don't cry. I came back home to be happy. If you cry like this, it will seem like I shouldn't have come back."
"Besides, an agreement written in black and white can't be changed by a few tears." She stood up boredly and said, "Mom, if you can keep your promise, Jiyun and I can come back from time to time in the future."
"If you still intend to sell me out again so that I can help the Xie family, then it's better for this family not to come back."
"No matter how much I think about it, my family won't give me a penny of benefit."
"If you force me, I'm not sure what Jiyun and I will say later. After all, pillow talk has always been powerful since ancient times."
After saying these words, Xie Jing left the living room on the second floor. She had no intention of falling out with Liu Liming and the Liu family, but she didn't expect them to be so shameless, disregarding their dignity and morals for a little bit of profit.
This was fine. Having spoken openly with the Xie family would save him a lot of trouble and the need to flatter these people in the future. Now it seemed that exchanging marriage for the freedom to leave the Xie family wasn't such a loss.
Xie Jing went to her own room. In the small living room, Grandma Liu stared at Liu Limin: "What's going on with the agreement?"
Liu Limin was upset because Xie Jing didn't speak up. "That's what you heard. When we were planning a marriage, I tried to persuade her, but she refused no matter how much I tried. It's your fault too..."
She poked Xie Wuyou with a finger as she spoke: "You agreed to the marriage, so why are there so many problems now?"
Xie Wuyou curled her lips. She did regret it later, but what was the use of regretting?
Grandma Liu glared at her: "Let's get down to business! What does the agreement say?"
"After she gets married, everything in the family will have nothing to do with her," Liu Limin had to say. "From now on, the Xie family will treat her as if she doesn't exist. Whether she lives a miserable life or a prosperous one, it has nothing to do with the family."
"You're so confused! You're so confused!" Grandma Liu angrily slapped Liu Limin on the back a few more times. "If she had proposed this, why would you have asked her to arrange a marriage? Don't you have any daughters in your family?"
"I told you to choose someone else, but you refused to listen!"
Liu Limin's eldest sister-in-law also said: "Mom, what you said is not wrong. Doesn't your second sister-in-law have a daughter in our family? She is only one year older than Xie Jing..."
Liu Limin wondered if she let the Liu family arrange a marriage, would the benefits ultimately go to the Xie family? That was obviously impossible. She wasn't stupid. Otherwise, why wouldn't she ask her family for help when things got tough?
"Anyway, things have come to this. I think she is very stubborn. Please don't say these things anymore, Mom." Liu Liming was also very annoyed. She felt that her mother's family was like blood-sucking leeches, coming here just because they smelled the blood.
"It's already like this, what else can I say? I asked you to teach her well, and you turned out like this..." Grandma Liu slapped Liu Limin again, feeling disappointed. "If you had treated her the same way you treated Wuyou, why would she be like this now?"
"She's not..." Liu Limin wanted to refute, but when she met Grandma Liu's eyes, she didn't dare to say anything and could only shut up. Xie Wuyou, who was standing next to her, looked at Liu Limin, then at Grandma Liu, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be a secret between the two of them?
Xie Jing felt bored staying in her room, so she simply picked up a suitcase and started packing her things. When Zhou Jiyun came in, Xie Jing's luggage was already half full.
"I'll help you!" A smile immediately appeared on Zhou Jiyun's face. When he thought of Xie Jing packing her luggage to live with him, Zhou Jiyun felt that all the boredom from the social engagements just now disappeared.
Xie Jing naturally wouldn't refuse Zhou Jiyun's offer of help. She understood this: if a man offers to help you, you should never refuse, and never say you can do it yourself.
Because you always say you can do it, and a man can't find a sense of existence with you, he will go outside to find a sense of existence. Of course, this is only limited to Xie Jing's own opinion, and I don't force everyone to agree with this point of view.
Asking a man to help you at appropriate times can also satisfy his male chauvinism. As a couple, there's no need to be self-reliant all the time. Showing weakness when it's necessary is fine. Otherwise, what's the point of a husband's existence?
"It's quite strange to think about it. A complete stranger suddenly appeared in my room." Xie Jing suddenly said this while folding clothes.
Zhou Jiyun opened the suitcase and said, "When we returned to the old house the day before yesterday, I also felt it was very strange when you stepped into my room. My wife appeared in the room where I have lived since I was a child. She completely entered my private space."
"From now on, everything I have is half hers. We share the same fate. It's a truly wonderful feeling."
