Chapter 107 Su Yindi Returns to Her Mother's Home
Jiang's mother took out the steamed buns she had made herself and handed them to Huo Ran: "Although they are all vegetarian, my cooking skills are still very good. I don't have anything good to give you at home, and you are not short of money, so this is all I can give you. Please don't mind."
Huo Ran certainly didn't mind; he was overjoyed that the Jiang family treated him this way.
“I don’t mind. No one has ever done these things for me since I was a child. Thank you, Aunt Jiang.”
Seeing how humble he was, without any airs of an official, Jiang's mother found him even more agreeable.
After seeing Huo Ran off, Jiang Mi realized that everyone was there except for Su Yindi. Could it be that Su Yindi and her third brother hadn't made up yet?
But judging from Jiang Zhi's expression, it was impossible to tell anything.
Mother Jiang said to everyone, "Alright, alright, Honey is fine. You should all go back and get some rest. You're all tired today."
Thinking about how everyone had been looking for her all day, Jiang Mi felt both touched and a little guilty: "Yes, I'm sorry to have made you all worry about me today."
Jiang Yan rubbed Jiang Mi's head: "What are you saying? We're all family, why are you being so formal?"
Jiang Mi stuck out her tongue and smiled sheepishly. After everyone left, Jiang Mi clung to her mother to go to sleep. Jiang Cheng, feeling sorry for his daughter, naturally wouldn't argue with her and had to go to sleep alone.
Lying in bed, Jiang Mi hugged her mother, feeling very at ease, though the events of her previous life still made her heart pound.
"Mother, haven't Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law made up yet?"
Mother Jiang sighed, "You know, Su Yindi, I didn't like her at first because I thought she didn't fit in with our Jiang family. But your third brother likes her, so be it. It's his marriage, he's the one who wants to spend his life with her, and I can't control it anyway. It's just that..."
Jiang Mi knew that her mother had been very tolerant of Su Yindi, considering that Su Yindi had married into the family. Su Yindi didn't like to work in the fields, so her mother hadn't forced her. She only let her cook and clean the house. However, she didn't expect that Su Yindi would still be so dissatisfied.
There's a saying that goes, "A man's greed is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant." No matter how good we are to her, we have no blood relation to her, and she will only be close to her maternal family.
Jiang Mi didn't know what to say to comfort her mother. In her past life, she also didn't get along with Su Yindi. Back then, Jiang Mi was also very hot-tempered and would argue with Su Yindi for no reason. Neither of them would give in to the other. However, Jiang Mi had her mother's protection, so she always won the argument.
But in this life, she has to be a "good woman" and can't argue with her family anymore. Actually, thinking about it, Su Yindi died because of her in her previous life. Although Su Yindi was sometimes annoying, she wasn't a vicious woman like Sun Qinwan.
"In time, Third Sister-in-law will know who is truly good to her. Right now, she just can't see it clearly, which may be due to the environment she grew up in. Mother, don't worry about them. Third Brother isn't a child anymore; he'll handle it."
Jiang's mother nodded, hugged her daughter, and fell asleep. She was content as long as her daughter was well by her side.
In the other three houses, Jiang Zhi returned to his room and found Su Yindi sleeping in bed. While everyone was busy looking for Jiang Mi, Su Yindi was nowhere to be seen. She didn't even come out for dinner that night, which was disheartening to think about.
“Brother Yin, we got together because we were attracted to each other. Back then, your family didn’t approve of me. They thought my family was too poor and said they would give you to a rich man’s family as a concubine. You didn’t want to, and insisted on marrying me. Those were good times. How did things turn out like this now?”
Jiang Zhi racked his brains but still couldn't understand why Su Yindi, who used to be so gentle and considerate and good to him, had become so unfamiliar after a period of time.
Su Yindi lay with her back to Jiang Zhi, tears welling in her eyes, biting her lip as she said, "I've always been this kind of person. If you regret it, then divorce me and marry someone else."
Jiang Zhi felt a pang of pain in his heart. He hadn't expected Su Yindi to say such a thing, so he quickly replied, "Fine, fine, you said it yourself. If you want to leave, I won't stop you, so as not to delay your search for your own happiness!"
Su Yindi sat up abruptly, looking at Jiang Zhi in disbelief, and said sadly, "Are you really going to divorce me?"
Jiang Zhi turned his head away from her without looking at her: "You said it yourself, not me. I was just doing what you asked for."
Su Yindi's eyes were swollen from crying. She had only said those words in anger, hoping that Jiang Zhi would coax her like before. But she didn't expect that Jiang Zhi would say such hurtful things and not give her any way out, leaving her at a loss for what to do.
"Fine, Jiang Zhi, you heartless bastard, I've seen through you."
Su Yindi ran out of the room crying. It was so dark that she couldn't see the road clearly. Jiang Zhi was worried about her, so he had no choice but to follow her out. But when he ran out the door, Su Yindi was nowhere to be seen.
Jiang Zhi panicked for a moment, thinking that Su Yindi could only run to her parents' home, and suddenly he was unwilling to chase after her. The Su family had always disliked him, and he didn't want to go to the Su family.
Jiang Zhi walked back dejectedly and found that his older brother had also come out at some point and was watching him from the doorway.
"What's wrong? Where did your sister-in-law go?"
Jiang Zhi was a little embarrassed that Jiang Yan had seen it: "It's nothing, just a little tantrum, I'll be fine in a couple of days."
Jiang Yan's house was right at the front door, so he could hear everything that was happening.
"You rascal, can't you let your wife have her way? What if a woman is in danger at night? Why don't you hurry up and chase after her?"
Jiang Zhi was also angry. He was young and hot-blooded and unwilling to back down: "I'm a man, why should I always back down to a woman? Besides, I've already tried to coax her several times. It's her who keeps doing it. This time, let her think about it herself."
Seeing Jiang Zhi return to his room, Jiang Yan sighed. His younger brother had grown up, and although he was the older brother, he couldn't interfere in what happened in his younger brother's room.
When Liu He saw Jiang Yan return, she asked, "What's wrong? Did you two have another fight?"
Jiang Yan sat on the bed without saying a word. Liu He was indecisive and always put her husband first. Seeing her husband's agitation, she could only comfort him: "Forget it, this is a matter between the two of them. You shouldn't interfere. Go to sleep early."
The next morning, seeing that Su Yindi hadn't come out for breakfast yet, Jiang's mother said to Jiang Zhi, "Your wife has been sleeping all day. Why aren't you getting up to eat? Don't let her get hungry."
Jiang Zhi mumbled a vague reply, and his mother didn't understand what he meant. Jiang Yan, who was watching from the side, answered for him.
