Chapter 177: False politeness, open-mindedness

Zhao Jiayun's good mood when he was about to go out for a walk suddenly disappeared. He forced a wry smile, ignored the person who was talking to him, and left slowly.

The women behind him looked at each other, not understanding why Zhao Jiayun suddenly changed his expression and left while talking?

"Hey - we shouldn't have provoked her, right?"

The other woman understood what was going on and raised her eyebrows in amusement, "You've provoked her. You've been poking at her lungs. If you stay any longer, I'm worried that she'll be so angry that she won't be able to breathe."

They are all educated youth. Zhao Jiayun cannot compare to Chu Sangning in everything. But now he sees that Jiang Xingyan, the youngest son of the Jiang family, is not a cripple.

Zhao Jiayun felt unbalanced, her face turned pale and no one had time to pay attention to her, talking about the changes in Chu Sangning and Jiang Xingyan.

Zhao Jiayun thought of herself and saw the scene of Chu Sangning returning home in grand style. She felt extremely unbalanced, but there was nothing she could do. She was pregnant with Luo Yiping's child. What else could she do?

Even though he didn't want to see Chu Sangning anymore, Zhao Jiayun still went home to get some eggs and came to the Jiang family with a smile on his face.

I happened to see Chu Sangning resting in the yard with a plate of melon seeds and peanuts in his hands. The Jiang family members next to him were very calm, as if they were used to this kind of scene.

"Sang Ning, you're finally back." Zhao Jiayun walked quickly forward, pretending that he hadn't seen Chu Sang Ning for a long time, and stretched out his hand to walk towards Chu Sang Ning.

Seeing this, Lin Xiuzhi hurried to stand in front of Chu Sangning, pretending to be polite with a fake smile, "Yiping's wife is here? You can't just walk around when you're pregnant."

Zhao Jiayun's face froze, not knowing what to say. She coughed awkwardly, "Auntie Lin, I'm just so happy to see Sang Ning. Sang Ning has finally settled down."

"Only married people know this. Once a girl reaches a certain age, she will quickly settle down, get married and have children."

It was unknown whether Zhao Jiayun did it on purpose or unintentionally. After saying this, she also said something insinuatingly: "Sang Ning must give birth to two more children for the Jiang family to continue the family line. Aunt Lin will definitely be happy if she does so."

No matter how amazing or good-looking Chu Sangning is, he still has to rely on the three mu of land in Changxing Village for the rest of his life, just like her.

Zhao Jiayun proudly covered her belly and showed off in front of Chu Sangning. They both married here, she was pregnant, and Chu Sangning was not married yet.

There was a feeling that the days passed by were much more overwhelming than Chu Sangning's.

In fact, it was just Zhao Jiayun's illusion. After all, no one cared about the baby in her belly, except the mother and son of the Luo family.

As for what Zhao Jiayun said, before Chu Sangning could finish her words, Lin Xiuzhi didn't like it and said with a sullen face, "What did Yiping's wife say? My brother Yan didn't marry Sangning to continue the family line."

"What era is this? We can't do this. If they want to have a baby, they can have one. If they don't want to, that's fine. My Jiang family has nothing. How can we pass on our family line?"

Lin Xiuzhi even felt that Zhao Jiayun, an educated youth, was not as advanced in thought as herself. The leaders had said that women hold up half the sky, so if one wanted to have a child, one had to discuss it with the woman.

They are just the husband's family, why do they care so much?

Even Chu Sangning looked at Lin Xiuzhi in surprise, as if she couldn't believe that her future mother-in-law was so open-minded.

"Auntie, you..."

Lin Xiuzhi's eyebrows relaxed and she said angrily, "Still calling me auntie?"

Chu Sangning felt a little embarrassed and whispered, "Mom."

Lin Xiuzhi and Chu Sangning were talking peacefully, leaving Zhao Jiayun aside. Looking at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarreling, Zhao Jiayun's cheeks ached from the pain.

She came here for important business, not to see Lin Xiuzhi and Chu Sangning showing off.

"Sang Ning, we are both educated youth, and I think we lived together for a few days. I don't want to hide anything from you this time. I want to ask you for help with something."

Chu Sangning felt something was wrong halfway through her words. Her heart skipped a beat. It was exactly what she had predicted. Their relationship was not as good as that between Zhao Jiayun and He Yueyang.

Is there anything I can do to help her?

Could it be that... Chu Sangning hadn't even finished speaking what he was thinking, but Zhao Jiayun had already spoken.

She said sorry, but actually she spoke faster than anyone else. Lin Xiuzhi wanted to stop herself but failed. "My family is a little short of money after the Chinese New Year. Can you lend me some money to help me out?"

As the saying goes, it is better to help than to lend money. After hearing what Zhao Jiayun said, Chu Sangning refused outright.

"I would help if I could, but I'm getting married soon, and I've used all my money to buy a venue for the wedding." Chu Sangning also pretended to be embarrassed and frowned, as if he really had no money.

"Venue? What venue?" Zhao Jiayun asked suddenly.

"When I got married, I wanted to plant flowers all over my house. Look, everyone is helping to weed and make a big space for me."

Upon learning that Chu Sangning had spent all her money on such worthless things, Zhao Jiayun's face turned as black as coal. He couldn't believe that she had taken out all her money.

"I will pay you back. We are from the same village now. Would I still owe you money?"

Zhao Jiayun's face was rosy, and the clothes she was wearing were warm and beautiful. Chu Sangning really couldn't imagine what she needed the money for.

She could borrow her own money if she wanted to. It was obvious that Zhao Jiayun's mental state at that moment did not require her own money.

"I really don't have any more. I'm sorry."

Zhao Jiayun tried everything, both soft and hard, but Chu Sangning refused to eat. Chu Sangning was a little dry-mouthed after talking so much. "Jiayun, since you are short of money, you can tell your parents."

She is not Zhao Jiayun's parent, so how can she become her ATM?

Chu Sangning didn't want to have a close relationship with Zhao Jiayun, so naturally he wouldn't have any financial dealings with her.

Later, Chu Sangning thanked his decision more than once.

Zhao Jiayun was so angry that he half died. Looking at Lin Xiuzhi's vigilant expression, he didn't even give up the egg in his hand. He snorted coldly and left.

Lin Xiuzhi followed closely and closed the door, signaling Chu Sangning to go back to the house first.

Time passed little by little, and Zhao Jiayun, who was unwilling to give up, came several times, but was rejected every time. Over time, he became smarter and realized that the Jiang family didn't like him, so he didn't approach them.

She had no money, so naturally she didn't live very well. Luo Yiping was often not at home, and Zhao Jiayun really didn't want to stay at home to take care of the paralyzed old lady Luo, so she took the change and went to the county town early in the morning.

She gritted her teeth and called home. When she learned that her daughter was pregnant, Zhao's father and mother didn't even show any happiness. They just told her lightly, "Now that you're married, live a good life and don't call home all day long."
