Chapter 157 What are you afraid of? My man is Zhou Chongshan

Facing Jiang Rou's questioning, Song Qingqian's expression did not change, but her silence undoubtedly meant acquiescence.

Song Qingqian heard it.

And I heard it clearly.

Including the sisters-in-law's kind advice to Jiang Rou, and Jiang Rou's final response of thanks.

At this moment.

They both knew it very well.

In this case, we might as well speak frankly.

"Xiaochuan, take Xiaohua to play in the yard first. Aunt Song and I have something to talk about."

Before having a formal and frank conversation, Jiang Rou asked the two children to leave and closed the door.

Jiang Rou and Song Qingqian were the only two people left in the room.

After Jiang Rou closed the door, she turned around and heard Song Qingqian ask.

"Aren't you afraid?"

When Jiang Rou heard this, she immediately raised her lips and smiled.

She smiled calmly, but also with contempt, as if she didn't care about anything.

Snorted softly.

"What am I afraid of?"

In contrast to Jiang Rou's ease and comfort was Song Qingqian's seriousness and solemnity at this moment.

"Jiang Rou, no matter how you defended my identity before, my origin and class cannot be faked. It will follow me all my life. I will always be a person with a questionable background. If you get too close to me, maybe you will also be considered as a person who is close to red and black, and they will look at you the same way. They may even regard you as-"

"Do you think I'm one of Miss Capitalist's accomplices?"

Jiang Rou took over Song Qingqian's next words.

She still chuckled.

"Qingqian, you probably don't know that the second day I arrived at Shanghai Island, they also called me a capitalist lady. But so what? I am still standing here in good health, nothing has happened to me at all."

"If I was really afraid of the so-called reputation and those rumors, I would have trembled in fear at that time and would not have contacted you in the first place."

"Since I have done these things, I am not afraid. Because I know I am not alone. My man is Zhou Chongshan, what is there to be afraid of?"

Perhaps it is to make the heavy atmosphere seem a little lighter.

So Jiang Rou could say the words "My man is Zhou Chongshan" in a joking tone and deliberately increased the volume.

Her face was filled with a little pride.

The ends of his eyes and eyebrows were all flying high.

In those bright and shining eyes, there is concentration and seriousness.

Jiang Rou's words were definitely not just a joke, but something she truly acknowledged in her heart.

In this way.

But Song Qingqian was stunned.

Song Qingqian has been in contact with Jiang Rou these days, and she feels the toughness of a woman of the new era beneath her gentle appearance.

Whether it's cooking or taking care of children, Jiang Rou always does it all, as if there is nothing she can't do.

She is independent, autonomous, outstanding and strong.

Just like the new wave women Song Qingqian had seen in European magazines.

Song Qingqian could accept other sisters-in-law who always called him "my man", but she could not imagine that such words would come out of Jiang Rou's mouth.

She was stunned and asked subconsciously and foolishly.

"You rely so much on a man, don't you think..."

Song Qingqian couldn't find a suitable adjective to describe the second half of the sentence for a while. Finally, after a struggle, he said one sentence.

"Don't you feel... embarrassed?"

"Why should I be embarrassed?" Jiang Rou asked back, "Zhou Chongshan and I are a married couple. I am his woman and he is my man. Is there anything wrong with that?"

Jiang Rou continued, "Since we are husband and wife, shouldn't we rely on each other and support each other? If after marriage, I still only think about myself, then why get married? Wouldn't it be better to be alone forever?"

"Zhou Chongshan is indeed more powerful than me in terms of status and position, so I have to rely on him. As long as he is here, there will always be room for me to survive in this military compound."

"But he is not as good as me in cooking and taking care of children. I take care of all the big and small things in the house, and he has to rely on me for these things."

"Throughout the long history of mankind, the reason why the marriage system was created is to complement each other, to rely on each other, and to make life better for two people together than for one person."

"If we still have to consider who depends on whom more, wouldn't that make life very tiring?"

"I don't want to live such a tiring life. Sometimes, being a little wife who relies on a man is actually quite good."

Jiang Rou also lived alone.

That was her previous life.

Because of her physical condition, she rejected love, marriage, and children.

She devoted all her energy to her career.

Although her life was very fulfilling, sometimes she couldn't help but wonder what it would be like if she had a man who could support her and a family that could serve as a safe haven.

There is no right or wrong choice in life.

Jiang Rou's previous life was undoubtedly wonderful.

It was just that she had experienced such a lonely life once, and after finally being reborn in another world, she wanted to try a life that was different from her previous life.

Moreover, this era has certain special characteristics.

The social atmosphere is not open, productivity and technological levels have not improved, and there is absolutely no space for a woman to survive independently.

Most women can only be dependent on men.

People like Song Qingqian, who were educated in advanced ideas and exposed to the trends of the European era, became the outliers of this era.

She seemed so out of place.

Song Qingqian always thought that Jiang Rou was the same person as her, at least in some ideas, they should be the same.

But after hearing what Jiang Rou said, Song Qingqian realized that she was wrong.

And it is dead wrong.

Jiang Rou has retained the independent and strong side of her nature, but has also integrated another side of her into this era, allowing her to better adapt to the surrounding environment.

Song Qingqian finally understood why Jiang Rou, who had just arrived, got along so well with so many ladies in the compound.

She could chat with Zhao Guifen, her illiterate sister-in-law from the village, talk about gossip, and look at men.

But I can also understand and appreciate Song Qingqian's pride, and find ways that she can accept so that we can get along more harmoniously.

Jiang Rou is like a pool of clear water.

She will take the shape of whatever container you put her in.

But without losing her pure nature.

Song Qingqian had never seen such a soft and brilliant attitude towards life before.
