Chapter 7: Split up the family and pull them out of the fire pit
State-owned restaurant t.
Braised pork belly, pan-fried crucian carp, mapo tofu, egg custard, and a bowl of fragrant chicken and mushroom soup.
Jiang Ning ordered a table full of dishes.
Especially the bowl of egg custard, she picked it up and placed it in front of Gu Yunshu.
Gu Yunshu made egg custard so many times at the Jiang family, but she had never tasted a bite.
Jiang Ning is going to compensate them today.
But Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu were completely frightened by the scene before them.
With so many dishes, and in the best state-owned restaurant in the city, how much does it cost?
The couple watched with eyes wide open, not daring to even pick up the chopsticks.
"Dad, Mom, what are you guys standing there for? Hurry up and eat."
Seeing that they didn't move, Jiang Ning simply stuffed the chopsticks into their hands and put them back into their bowls, and each of them picked up a piece of braised pork belly.
Gu Yunshu was tense all over and spoke nervously.
"Ning'er, did you secretly hide your salary? You must not spend it. If you don't give it to grandma, she will beat you!"
She thought of the past...
Jiang Ning's rubber-soled shoes were torn, so she spent two dollars to buy a new pair of shoes. Because she had to pay Jiang Li's salary, she had two dollars less.
That night, Jiang Li almost blew off the roof of her house and beat Jiang Ning with a feather duster.
The red and swollen scars on Jiang Ning's body lasted for half a month before they barely healed.
Gu Yunshu still felt frightened when thinking about this matter.
Jiang Ning was extremely calm about this, she didn't even move her eyelids.
He just spoke lightly.
"Mom, don't worry, it's not my salary that's being used. Even if it's really my salary, it's the money I worked hard to earn. I can spend it however I want. What does it have to do with them? If grandma hits me, won't I resist?"
Speaking of resistance...
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu couldn't help but look at each other.
They all thought of the scene not long ago when Jiang Ning pushed Jiang Li away.
Her eyes were firm and her movements were decisive and quick, without a trace of hesitation.
Is this... really their daughter?
Jiang Ning saw the confusion in their eyes and continued speaking while picking up some food for them.
"Dad, Mom, I'm 19 years old this year. I'm already an adult, and I'm no longer a child who can be bullied. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Hear these words.
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu finally calmed down a little.
I felt in my heart that maybe their daughter had really grown up...
Just thinking about it.
Jiang Ning's next words scared them so much that the chopsticks they had just picked up with great difficulty almost fell to the ground again.
"Dad, Mom, I'm getting married."
Jiang Ning still spoke in the same calm tone as before.
Only on the fair face, the red lips were slightly raised.
When talking about marriage, she couldn't help but smile sweetly when thinking of the man Qin Jiulie.
Now even Jiang Yuanshan couldn't sit still.
His eyes suddenly widened.
"Get…married…?"
"Yes, we are getting married." Jiang Ning nodded and continued, "It was introduced by Sister Hong, the women's director of the textile factory. You can rest assured about his organizational background. He is an officer."
When they heard that it was a soldier, Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu both breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Yunshu is a woman after all, so she is more careful.
She noticed the military uniform Jiang Ning was wearing. It was large and ill-fitting, but looked majestic.
only……
Gu Yunshu asked worriedly, "Ning'er, you just went on a blind date and met once, and you've already decided to get married?"
Of course Jiang Ning couldn't tell others that she and Qin Jiulie had ended up in bed by accident.
She selectively talked about some basic information about Qin Jiulie.
"He is a soldier, usually stationed in the army. If he is not on a business trip, he will not come to our place. Even if we write letters, it will be inconvenient to contact each other in the future. It is better to get married directly, so that I don't have to join the educated youth going to the countryside, and I can follow the army to his unit."
After listening to this, Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu thought about it and nodded.
Now all young people in the city need to join the educated youth program and go to the countryside, and they go to some remote and backward small mountain villages where the conditions are very difficult.
It would be better to join the army.
Not only is her living environment guaranteed, but there is also a man who can take care of Jiang Ning.
They were still worried about Jiang Ning's sudden marriage.
But in this era, there are many men and women who marry blindly at the behest of their parents.
For someone like Jiang Ning, it can be said that it is a great blessing to have her marriage introduced by the director of the Women's Department.
Although Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu had never met Qin Jiulie, they had already decided in their hearts that he should be a good man.
Jiang Ning continued.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, he treats me very well. You can say that he treated you to today's meal. If you don't believe me, just look—"
Talking.
Jiang Ning opened the pocket of her military uniform and showed it to Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu.
The couple looked over and saw a bag full of money and bills.
"Wow--"
Jiang Yuanshan was stunned and gasped. He was over 40 years old and it was the first time he had seen so much money.
Gu Yunshu looked around nervously.
She held Jiang Ning's hand and covered her pockets tightly.
"Shh! Don't let anyone see you!"
Immediately following.
Gu Yunshu asked in a low voice, "He really gave you so much money directly?"^o^
Jiang Ning nodded, "Yeah, he told me to spend as much as I want and not to save, and he can support me."
In this way.
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu became more and more satisfied with this son-in-law whom they had never met before.
This was the first time for the three of them to eat out, and they were eating special dishes from a state-owned restaurant.
The fragrant pork belly is soft and sticky, leaving a lingering fragrance in your mouth.
Smiles appeared on the faces of the three people.
It was as if he had forgotten the foul smell at home.
Wait until you are about 80% full.
There was one thing Jiang Ning had to say.
"Dad, Mom, I'm going to join the army after I get married, so you don't have to worry about me. But - I'm worried about you. Do you really want to continue like this? All the money you worked so hard to earn, you gave it to grandma, and that familiar ungrateful bastard?"
As soon as these words came out.
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu's expressions instantly became solemn, even... a kind of numb expression after being subjected to PUA for a long time.
Jiang Yuanshan said in a low voice.
"Aning, there are some things you don't know..."
"Dad, I know everything. You are not grandma's biological son. You are the one she picked up."
Jiang Ning's words directly hit the point.
More than 40 years ago, Jiang Li couldn't give birth to a son after getting married. She happened to find Jiang Yuanshan on the roadside and simply adopted him.
There is a saying in rural areas that if you adopt a son, you can have another one.
Two years after Jiang Li adopted Jiang Yuanshan, she became pregnant.
After having a biological son.
The treatment of Jiang Yuanshan, the adopted son, took a sharp turn for the worse.
He is no longer a son; he has completely become a servant, a domestic worker, and a farmhand of the Jiang family!
This is also the reason why Jiang and Li are so biased.
Jiang Yuanshan is honest by nature, and remembering the kindness of Jiang Li in raising him, he has been working hard and allowing them to exploit him for so many years.
But--
"Dad, it's been almost forty years. Isn't everything you've done for the Jiang family enough to repay them for raising me?"
Jiang Ningjia raised his tone, speaking with each word being sonorous.
Jiang Yuanshan's emotions fluctuated violently, and he asked in disbelief, "Aning, how do you know this?"
Gu Yunshu was heartbroken because of Jiang Ning's words. Her eyes turned red silently and she wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.
The reason why Jiang Ning knew this was certainly not because of the original owner’s memory, but because this matter was mentioned in the original text.
At that time, Jiang Xinrou told this matter as if it were a joke.
He also believed that Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu's silent contributions were all justified!
After Jiang Ning traveled through the book, he had no feelings for the Jiang family, but he did have sympathy for the original owner's hardworking parents.
She wanted to pull them out of the fire.
"Dad, Mom, let's separate from them."
Jiang Ning suggested in a heavy tone.
