Chapter 53: Brother, I’m Angry…
"You want this watch?" Xie Jiaojiao was surprised.
"Ahem, I didn't." Jiang Zhu lowered her eyelids, her long eyelashes covering the cunning in her eyes: "Sorry, ahem, sister, I just said the wrong thing."
"How could I have the nerve to ask my sister for something so valuable as a watch?"
"Ahem, sister is kind and generous, but Ah Zhu can't be that irresponsible man and ask sister to give Ah Zhu things. Ahem, Ah Zhu needs to grow up quickly and buy sister beautiful clothes from the department store, all kinds of delicious snacks, and the best and most expensive watches."
Jiang Zhu is a man of meticulous mind, and due to the bad experiences he has had over the years, he is very good at observing people's expressions.
Just now at Uncle Lin's place, he keenly noticed Xie Jiaojiao's unnatural reaction when Uncle Lin mentioned "Is it because he is stupid and has a lot of money?", and he secretly put some doubts on Su Yu.
Xie Jiaojiao nodded like a chicken as she listened to Jiang Zhu's words.
Su Yu is indeed irresponsible, not even as good as a child.
Even a child as young as his brother knew not to accept expensive gifts from others, but what about Su Yu? It seemed that every time he said firmly, "I don't want it, I don't want it," but in fact he accepted everything.
And she...
He actually thought Su Yu was of noble character, and was addicted to it, enjoying it endlessly.
Recalling the past, Xie Jiaojiao's expression kept changing like a color palette, and it never looked good.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhu knew that his goal had been achieved.
He pulled out one hand, clenched his fist to cover the upturned corner of his mouth, coughed twice, and brought Xie Jiaojiao back to her senses.
Xie Jiaojiao looked at the pale-faced Jiang Zhu, then at the watch on her hand, with a conflicted look on her face.
"Brother, I can't give you this watch."
After Xie Jiaojiao finished speaking, Jiang Zhuxin skipped a beat and started coughing violently.
A hint of scarlet flashed in Jiang Ye's eyes, and the air pressure in his body dropped suddenly. If it was the low pressure of minus 10 degrees Celsius in winter before, then now it was the violent snowstorm of minus 100 degrees Celsius in the ice storage. Any living creature that stepped into his territory would be strangled without mercy.
Su Yu......
Jiang Zhu, who was on Jiang Ye's back, was the first to be hurt.
Brother, I'm angry...
An angry older brother is scary.
Jiang Zhu only saw it once, but he would never forget it.
He and his younger sister Jiang Mei are twins, a boy and a girl. Unlike him who is weak, his younger sister has been in good health since childhood. Moreover, unlike him who is weak-willed like his father, his younger sister is more like his grandfather who is heroic and generous.
He is the older brother, but more like the younger brother, and has always been spoiled by his younger sister.
But that year, my younger sister, who happily went to work that morning, was carried back home by my older brother, covered in blood...
My younger sister didn't die, but she became stupid.
It was also that time that the eldest brother lost his temper and challenged dozens of people alone, leaving a scar on his brow.
It was also during that time that the eldest brother changed. He became more vicious and colder, and everyone in the village said he was an evil spirit.
It was also that time that his elder brother treated him differently than before. There was no more playfulness between them, only the elder brother's cold and sharp gaze.
"Brother, don't cough so quickly. I haven't finished what I'm saying yet." Xie Jiaojiao hurriedly carried the watch to Jiang Zhushun: "This watch has been worn by a disgusting person. I'll sell it and buy you a new one."
Xie Jiaojiao didn't miss Su Yu, nor did she feel sorry for the money. She simply felt that the watch Su Yu had worn was disgusting.
Disgusting person?
In an instant, the coldness on Jiang Ye's body disappeared, and the corners of his lips curled up.
Jiang Zhu was stunned for a moment, and his eyes became complicated as he looked at Xie Jiaojiao.
It seems that the eldest brother cares about the eldest sister-in-law more than he thought.
That......
Jiang Zhu clenched his fists.
He would never allow anyone to separate his elder brother and his wife.
But what can he do with his sick body?
Suddenly, Jiang Zhu remembered something, and a hint of ink stained his clear eyes.
This ink color came and went quickly, like an illusion.
"Ahem, don't worry, sister. I'm not coughing in a hurry because of this."
Isn’t the cough caused by the emotional fluctuations caused by not getting what you wanted?
Xie Jiaojiao's younger brother Xie Jiandang is like this. If he doesn't get what he wants, he will get angry, with a gloomy face as if others owe him something, and speak in a sarcastic manner.
They are all younger brothers, what’s the difference?
Isn't this just throwing a tantrum because you didn't get what you expected?
"Why is that?" Xie Jiaojiao asked, not understanding.
Jiang Zhu discovered something else.
His sister-in-law is not only sharp-tongued, but also doesn't quite understand what others mean.
Jiang Zhu thought for a moment and changed his mind.
He stared at the watch in Xie Jiaojiao's hand, almost gluing his eyes to it.
"Ahem, this is just my old problem. I can't tell when the cough will be mild or severe. It's definitely not because I'm sad that you didn't give me the watch."
Xie Jiaojiao felt very strong, but Jiang Zhu's straightforward words and the eager gaze in his eyes were too strong to be ignored.
Especially when Xie Jiaojiao's eyes moved between the watch and Jiang Zhu, Jiang Zhu's guilty look away and the unconcealable disappointment on his face made Xie Jiaojiao certain of one thing: he wanted the watch, but because of its preciousness, he couldn't ask for it and could only give up with great pain.
Xie Jiaojiao, who realized that she had discovered the truth, sighed sincerely: My brother is really sensible and makes me feel sorry for him.
Although Xie Jiaojiao is not the youngest, she is spoiled by the whole family. Everyone in the family, including her younger brother, treats her as a child.
Jiang Zhu, who can show weakness, act pitiful and call others "sister", undoubtedly touches the soft spot in Xie Jiaojiao's heart and satisfies her deep desire to be the big sister.
Xie Jiaojiao immediately softened her heart: "Here, you take this watch first. When I buy a new one, I'll sell this one for money."
"Ahem, no, I have no relationship with my sister, so I can't accept such a valuable item from her."
Jiang Zhu mocked Su Yu again, stretched out a hand to push her away, but his eyes showed deep reluctance.
Xie Jiaojiao felt even more distressed.
"Take it. Why is it okay? It does matter. I'm your sister-in-law. This is a meeting gift."
Sister-in-law, Xie Jiaojiao’s words were as soft as the hum of a mosquito, but the two brothers with sharp ears didn’t hear it.
Jiang Zhu took the watch and smiled at Xie Jiaojiao: "Thank you, sister-in-law. When I grow up, I will work hard to make money and repay you well."
Jiang Zhu called Xie Jiaojiao "sister-in-law" all the time, which made her blush and lower her head, not daring to look up to see anyone.
Fortunately, at this time, they arrived at the entrance of the educated youth site. The shy Xie Jiaojiao said, "I'll go back first." Then she ran away with her face covered.
Xie Jiaojiao said this as she walked up to Jiang Ye and pulled his arm.
Jiang Ye did not miss the sight of Xie Jiaojiao's cute face with half of her face flushed red. He was in a very happy mood and his expression became gentle. Even the scar on his brow bone did not look scary at all.
"Slower."
Only after watching Xie Jiaojiao enter the educated youth site did Jiang Ye carry Jiang Zhu away.
Without Xie Jiaojiao, the atmosphere between the two brothers became stagnant.
"watch."
Jiang Zhu took it out and handed it to Jiang Ye.
"Remember, I am the only one who can buy things for your sister-in-law. You are not allowed to do so." The petty-minded Jiang Ye said domineeringly.
"I understand, big brother."
"Grandpa, did you get sent here?"
Jiang Zhu's forehead was covered in sweat: "Yeah."
"eventful."
"Ahem, big brother, ahem, grandpa is just curious about sister-in-law, ahem, it's not..."
"Shut up."
Of course he knew what his grandfather was thinking, but it was wrong to hide it from him and go to Jiaojiao secretly.
Jiang Zhu, who was bullied, let her long eyelashes droop, hiding the loss and sadness in her eyes.
Brother, do you still look down on him?
