Chapter 179
Liang Rui felt a little bitter when asked this question. It was the grievances and sadness of the past, but when Liang Qiurun acknowledged it, it disappeared instantly.
It turns out that all these years, all Liang Rui wanted was an apology.
He pursed his lips and whispered, "Dad, there's no such thing as forgiveness or non-forgiveness between you and me."
"Without you, I would have died long ago."
This is a fact.
When his father died and his mother remarried, the young Liang Rui became the only burden. At this time, it was Liang Qiurun who accepted and raised him.
When Liang Qiurun heard this, he paused, then stepped forward and hugged Liang Rui. This made Liang Rui's eyes instantly red, not only because of the apology, but also because of this belated hug.
He had been looking forward to it for a long time.
At this moment, Liang Rui felt that his past resentment and sadness towards his father disappeared in an instant.
"dad."
He shouted.
When the other people in the room saw this scene, they all felt their eyes sore.
"You and my stepmother can go to the south without worry. I'm at home, so you don't have to worry. I'll go home every week and take good care of grandma."
Liang Qiurun clenched his fist and punched his shoulder. "Yeah."
"I'll leave the house to you."
This is the baton.
It's the baton passed between father and son.
Since she had decided to go to the south, Jiang Meishu naturally had to say goodbye to her family. After the Chinese New Year, she returned to her parents' home.
Liang Qiurun went back with her.
He also brought back a lot of gifts, including sugar, malted milk, canned food, and a three-pound piece of pork belly. The pork belly was delicious and made people drool just by looking at it.
However, unlike the past when they were warmly welcomed by their neighbors every time they returned to the alley, when they saw Jiang Meishu and Liang Qiurun again, their eyes were filled with sympathy and avoidance.
"Meilan, are you back?"
That's all.
It’s not like before when he saw Liang Qiurun coming back, he would come up and say hello like a dog seeing a bone.
Jiang Meishu naturally noticed it. She had thought of this day as early as the moment Liang Qiurun said he wanted to resign.
She hummed, "I'm back."
Without chatting, he took Liang Qiurun into the house.
As soon as they left, the neighbors at the entrance of the alley started to cry out, "Did you see that?"
"Meilan and Director Liang are back."
"He's still calling me Director Liang, but now he's no longer Director Liang. He's just an ordinary person."
"Then why didn't you dare to say it in front of others before?"
This remark left the other party speechless. However, Grandma Hu put away her needle and thread for the shoe soles. She smiled and said, "Regardless of whether Director Liang is a factory director or not, he looks like he is not an ordinary person."
"For those of us who can't even afford meat, it's better not to judge others."
This is the truth.
However, not many people can see this truth clearly.
Jiang family.
Wang Limei naturally also learned the news that Liang Qiurun had resigned from the meat processing plant, and she was depressed throughout the New Year.
Of course, she was more worried. Whenever she talked to Jiang Chenliang, she would tear up. "Why is my daughter so miserable? She's only been married to Xiao Liang for over three years, and they haven't even had a child yet, and Xiao Liang's position as factory director has been taken away. How are they going to live in the future?"
After hearing this, Jiang Chenliang didn't say anything. He just lowered his head and puffed on his pipe, and the whole room was filled with smoke.
He was quite open-minded. "How can we get through this? Just take it slow. Everyone encounters obstacles. Xiaoliang treats her well. If we take it slow, we can get through this."
Jiang Meishu was standing at the door, and was about to lift the curtain, but she didn't expect to hear her parents' conversation. She naturally knew that Liang Qiurun's resignation would cause a shock to her mother's family, but she didn't expect it to cause such a big shock.
Even their parents started to worry about them.
Liang Qiurun squeezed Jiang Meishu's hand, and she forced herself to calm down. She smiled and called out to the house, "Dad, Mom."
"Lao Liang and I are back."
As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Limei immediately wiped her tears hurriedly, fearing that her daughter and son-in-law would find out what was wrong.
Then he hurried out of the house and asked, "Why didn't you tell your family in advance that you're back?"
"I should prepare some food, right?"
Fortunately, the Chinese New Year had just passed, and there were some delicious dishes at home.
Jiang Meishu pursed her lips as she walked in, wearing an indigo cotton jacket and corduroy wide-leg pants. She looked slender, with very fair skin, gentle features, and a pretty and elegant figure.
It really looks like someone walked out of a painting.
It wasn't until they were inside and holding Wang Limei's arm that she whispered, "I'm going back to my own home. Do I still need you to entertain me?"
It seems that my daughter has only lost some weight, but her complexion is still good, her face is rosy and fair.
This made Wang Limei breathe a sigh of relief. At least it meant that even if Liang Qiurun resigned, her daughter was still living a pretty good life.
Otherwise it wouldn’t be like this.
Whether a marriage is good or not can be seen from the face, whether it is a man or a woman.
"Come in." After she was inside and made sure the neighbors outside couldn't hear her, she lowered her voice and asked, "Did Qiu Run really quit?"
Even though this news has been around for a long time, Wang Limei still has some doubts.
She also held on to the last glimmer of hope and asked. After all, the position of director of the meat processing plant was so attractive that if she went out, even if she didn't say her son-in-law was the director, someone would take the initiative to introduce her to the position and the connections.
After all, Liang Qiurun is the factory director and is the mother-in-law, so Wang Limei will benefit from it.
That's just face-saving.
That is envied by others.
But after he left, it disappeared.
When she asked this, Jiang Meishu hummed and said, "I resigned."
"Lao Liang, go play chess with my dad."
Her father is a terrible chess player, but he loves playing chess very much. Liang Qiurun is a good chess player, but she can still win two games and lose one game in front of her father-in-law.
This is Liang Qiurun's ability.
She sent Liang Qiurun out on purpose so that Liang Qiurun wouldn't feel embarrassed if her mother said something while he was here.
Wait until they all go out.
Jiang Meishu then whispered to Wang Limei, "Mom, don't ask anymore. Liang Qiurun has already resigned. It's too late to say anything now."
"I came back this time." She took a deep breath and poured out everything like pouring out beans. "We came back this time to tell you that after the fifteenth day of the lunar year, Liang Qiurun and I are going to the south."
Wang Limei was surprised when she heard this. "Why are you going to the South?"
"Even if he's resigned, his connections are still there. Wouldn't it be better for him to find a job in the capital?"
Jiang Meishu lowered her eyes. "He wanted to go to the south to have a look. My sister and I happened to have business in the south as well, so I wanted to go with him."
"You're leaving too?"
Wang Limei stood up instantly and said, "What are you going to do in the south? Your family, friends, and classmates are all in the capital. You won't be familiar with the place."
Jiang Meishu looked up at her and said seriously, "Mom, no one is unfamiliar with the place. Lao Liang is in the south, so I will accompany him."
After going through the most difficult time, she didn't want to be separated from the other party anymore.
Wang Limei sighed and slapped the bed. "Forget it, forget it. You won't listen to anything I say anyway."
"Have you discussed this with your sister?"
Jiang Meishu shook her head. "I haven't told her yet, but whether we discuss it or not, I will go."
"Business over there also depends on people."
"Mom, I've been to the south so I won't be home often. Please wait for me to come back and see you next time."
Wang Limei wiped her tears and said, "I wanted to marry you to be close to me, but when the time came, you were the one who ran the farthest."
Jiang Meishu also felt sorry for her. She gently hugged Wang Limei and wiped her tears, "Mom, I'm sorry."
"Please wait for me. We will eventually return to the capital, but we will be in Guangzhou for the next two years. Once I have settled down there, I will take you there to live with me in my old age."
Wang Limei burst into laughter after hearing this. "How can I expect my daughter to support me in my old age? If people knew about this, my spine would be broken."
Wang Limei is a good mother and she loves Jiang Meishu.
But many times, she was influenced by the secular world, and even tended to favor boys over girls without even realizing it.
Jiang Meishu had long been accustomed to the separation, and she had no intention of arguing about the things that had made her sad in the past.
She wiped away her tears and said, "That's basically the situation. We're not going away and never coming back. We'll definitely come back during the holidays."
"Wait for me to come and see you then."
She had made the decision, and Wang Limei knew she couldn't stop her, so she stood up, took out a passbook from the box, and handed it to Jiang Meishu.
Seeing that Jiang Meishu was puzzled, she whispered, "This is the money you gave me before. I saved more than 1,500 yuan in bits and pieces."
"Take it. You're going far away, to the south. Mom may not be able to take care of you. Take care of yourself."
Even if being a mother is not easy, she will treat her children sincerely when they encounter difficulties.
Looking at the money, Jiang Meishu felt mixed emotions. She had earned a lot of money, but because her family was not well off, she didn't dare to give too much.
She always gave just the right amount, but even so, her mother still saved so much money.
Jiang Meishu was silent for a moment. "I don't want it." She retreated. "We have saved a lot of money. You can keep this money for your family's retirement."
Outside.
Liang Qiurun and Jiang Chenliang were playing chess, and neither of them spoke.
At the very end, Jiang Chenliang suddenly sighed, "Qiu Run, you've been wronged this time."
He did not blame Liang Qiurun for why he resigned from his position as factory director.
As a worker in the meat processing plant, he knew better than anyone how much Liang Qiurun had suffered this time.
When Liang Qiurun heard this, the chess piece between his fingers also paused, "Dad, thank you for understanding me."
He had come to the Jiang family expecting to be blamed by his mother-in-law and father-in-law, but that didn't happen.
Whether it is the former or the latter, they are supporting him in their own way.
In a sense, the Jiang family is even better than his blood-related elder brother.
Jiang Meishu didn't stay at home for too long. She went to Shen's house again. When she went there, Jiang Meilan was making a schoolbag for Shen Xiaoju.
Xiaoju will be three years old this year and can be sent to nursery.
Everyone in the family was busy with business and couldn't take care of the children, so Jiang Meilan came up with this plan and started preparing in advance.
"sister."
Seeing that no one was at the Shen family, Jiang Meishu called out in a low voice.
Jiang Meilan was a little surprised. "Why are you here?" She immediately dropped her schoolbag and went to greet her. "Didn't you say that we won't be celebrating the New Year this year?"
Because Liang Qiurun had an accident, I told my family in advance that I would not pay New Year's greetings this year.
Jiang Meishu said, "I'm not here to wish you a happy new year. I came here to tell you something."
"Lao Liang and I plan to go south after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."
"I'll take care of the business in the south from now on. The business in the north will depend on you and Shen Zhanlie."
This news was so sudden that Jiang Meilan was still a little stunned. "Why are we going to the South?"
Whether Liang Qiurun resigned from the meat processing plant or the couple went to the south, this was different from the previous life.
Completely different.
Jiang Meishu explained, "After this incident, Lao Liang wanted to do something he wanted to do, so I accompanied him."
Jiang Meishu, who said this, had fair eyebrows and eyes, and a natural and unobtrusive look, with a hint of determination.
Jiang Meilan looked at her like this and murmured, "She has changed."
“Everything has changed.”
Liang Qiurun resigned and is heading south.
Even my younger sister, who used to be the most dependent on others, has grown up.
Jiang Meishu held her hand and said, "Sister, we have all started families and careers, so things will change naturally." She felt that her mentality was much calmer than it was three years ago.
Even when Liang Qiurun resigned and went to the south, she was not at all panicked.
She is able to deploy and arrange things in an orderly manner.
Then she went to the south with him, but it was not just to accompany Liang Qiurun, she also had her own career and business.
After this incident, Jiang Meishu, who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, suddenly had a clearer goal.
"When I'm not in the capital, please help keep an eye on my parents."
"And Nanfang. Although he's in college now, he's still a child. If you have time, bring some things and go visit him at school."
Jiang Meilan hummed softly, "I know."
She looked at her sister, the once naive sister who now knew how to worry.
She smiled, her tone complicated and a little sad, "Now it seems that you are more like a sister."
Jiang Meishu hummed, "I am your sister."
From the moment their identities were switched, she became the other person's sister.
Jiang Meishu didn't stay at the Shen family for long. After explaining everything clearly, she left.
After returning home, she asked Comrade Wang to cook a lot of delicious meals. She carried a lunch box, food coupons, two bags of sugar, two bags of peach cakes, and a Beijing roast duck.
Only then did she go to USTC to visit Jiang Nanfang.
She arrived downstairs of the science building and asked the dormitory manager to help pass on the message. After a while, Jiang Nanfang came down from the dormitory building.
Jiang Meishu saw him from a distance. He was taller, but he had a scruffy beard despite his young age. As a boy grows up, he always has a beard.
It seemed that at this moment, Jiang Meishu realized that Nanfang was no longer the child who followed her around crying and with a runny nose.
"south."
Jiang Meishu waved at him, and Jiang Nanfang's eyes focused and he ran over quickly, "Sister, why did you come to see me?"
Jiang Meishu stood on tiptoe, touched his head, and smiled faintly, "Come to see you."
"Looking for a place to eat?"
Jiang Nanfang hesitated and said, "Sister, it's so cold outside. If you don't mind, I'll take you to our dormitory."
After saying that, he rejected it himself, "Forget it, our dormitory is full of boys."
"It doesn't matter."
Jiang Meishu smiled and said, "Take me up to see the proud child of HKUST."
Jiang Nanfang no longer hesitated. He led Jiang Meishu upstairs and into the room, then introduced her to her roommates in the dormitory, "This is my sister. She came to see me."
I have to say, they are worthy of being called the king of examination papers. These students had just celebrated the Chinese New Year, and they were all reading in the dormitory.
Jiang Meishu was not surprised at all.
All I can say is that none of the students who are able to get into top universities have a hard time.
"Hello." She took the initiative to greet.
Several of Jiangnan Fang's classmates stood up and shouted in hoarse voices, "Sister."
Jiang Meishu thought that she was about to leave, and these people were all her brother's roommates, so she took out the roast duck and the food, "Come on, let's have a meal together."
If she can't come in the future, these roommates will take care of Jiang Nanfang.
There is a shortage of meat these days, and even the chosen ones at the University of Science and Technology of China are no exception.
When the Peking duck, braised pork and potatoes were brought out, the eyes of the boys in the dormitory were all green.
"sister."
I don't know who swallowed first, "You guys eat, we've all eaten."
After saying that, Chen Qin called his roommate out.
But Jiang Meishu stopped him, "Let's have a meal together. Maybe you won't be able to eat there even if you want to in the future."
At this moment, Chen Qin and the others stopped immediately.
Jiang Nanfang subconsciously asked, "Sister, what do you mean by this?"
Among his brothers and sisters, he has the best relationship with Jiang Meishu.
Since Jiang Meishu came to say goodbye, she didn't hide it. "Your brother-in-law and I are planning to go to Guangzhou. We won't be able to come to school to see you anymore. Take care of yourself at school."
This made Jiang Nanfang a little bit unacceptable, "Why is it so sudden?"
Jiang Meishu smiled and said, "It's not sudden. I had this idea before, but your brother-in-law's work kept him away. Now that we have the opportunity, we naturally have to go out and take a look."
"Nanfang, I won't be home anymore. If you have a holiday, go home more often to visit your parents. And the same goes for my sister. If she and Shen Zhanlie have a fight, remember to support her."
She confessed to everyone except herself.
Jiang Nanfang murmured, "Then what are you going to do?"
"You and your brother-in-law went to the south, where you are unfamiliar with the place. What if your brother-in-law lets you down?"
These words made Jiang Meishu stunned. She subconsciously wanted to say no, but then she thought, the most unpredictable thing is the human heart.
She lowered her eyes, "No, if your brother-in-law really lets me down, don't I have you?" She looked up, "Nanfang, I'm waiting for you to climb higher. The higher you climb, the more intimidating you will be to your brother-in-law."
This is setting a goal for Jiangnan Fang.
Jiang Nanfang didn't say anything. He just whispered, "My next vacation will have to wait until summer vacation. I'll go to Yangcheng to see you then."
"If your brother-in-law bullies you, don't be afraid. Tell me and I will support you."
No matter whether he climbed high or not.
He would always support her sister.
Jiang Meishu touched Jiang Nanfang's head and said, "I'll tell you the address when I'm settled."
When she was leaving, Jiang Nanfang came out to see her off, and a group of Jiang Nanfang's roommates also came out to see her off.
Jiang Meishu waved her hand and said, "No need to see me off. Go back and eat quickly."
Jiang Nanfang didn't agree. He quickly ran down from upstairs, panting and asking, "Sister."
"Did your brother-in-law force you to go to the south, to Guangzhou?"
Jiang Meishu was stunned by this question. Her silly brother thought she was being threatened.
She shook her head. "No, you forgot. Your eldest sister and I have a business in Yangcheng, and we're short of someone there. If I go there, I can do business and be with your brother-in-law."
"Nanfang." She rubbed Jiang Nanfang's head, "The adult world is not that complicated. Don't be so anxious to grow up."
This is something that Jiangnan Fang in the past would never have asked.
Jiang Nanfang was silent for a moment. He pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "When you leave, I'll see you off."
Jiang Meishu shook her head, "No need, I won't tell anyone when I leave."
"When the time comes, you, mom, sister, and even my in-laws shouldn't come."
"Your brother-in-law and I want to leave immediately."
This left Jiang Nanfang helpless. He looked at Jiang Meishu eagerly. Jiang Meishu sighed, "Don't worry, it's not like I won't come back. Guangzhou is not far from the capital. If I want to come back, I can just buy a ticket and come back, right?"
Jiang Nanfang still didn't say anything, but stubbornly sent Jiang Meishu on the bus until the bus disappeared.
He murmured, "Sister, if I were more powerful, would you not have to go to Yangcheng?"
Jiangnan Fang didn’t know.
He only knew that it started from the day her sister left.
Jiangnan Fang became a king of rolls.
He is using his own method, step by step, to climb to the top.
*
When Jiang Meishu went back, Liang Qiurun was packing. The weather in Guangzhou was warm, so they just needed to wear one set of thick clothes and bring a few sets of thin clothes for spring and autumn.
Hearing the noise, he looked up, his brows gentle, "Are you done?"
He knew that Jiang Meishu went back today mainly to say goodbye.
Jiang Meishu hummed, "It's all said."
She didn't go to pack her things, but walked to Liang Qiurun and whispered, "I just feel empty inside."
"It's a bit uncomfortable."
Saying goodbye is never a happy thing.
When Liang Qiurun heard this, he stopped packing his clothes and gently hugged Jiang Meishu from behind, "I'm sorry."
If it weren't for him, his Jiang Jiang wouldn't have to leave his hometown.
"You don't have to apologize to me." Jiang Meishu turned around, looked at him and whispered, "Liang Qiurun, I went to the South not only for you, I also want to do business."
"So don't take all the responsibility on yourself."
Liang Qiurun remained silent for a while before saying, "Don't you regret following me?"
This is what Secretary He once asked him.
Now, he came to ask Jiang Meishu again.
Jiang Meishu shook her head, "What do you regret?"
"I was just thinking." She had already started dreaming of getting rich, and Guangzhou was full of gold.
Can she pick it up?
Jiang Meishu became a little uncertain.
"you say."
Liang Qiurun looked over.
Jiang Meishu began to enjoy, "Can we make a fortune by going to the south?"
