Chapter 51
He called out in a gentle and tender voice, with a numbing feeling at the end of the tone, which made Jiang Meishu's face subconsciously hot. Fortunately, it was too dark, covering the blush on her cheeks.
"Don't shout like that." she whispered.
Liang Qiurun looked at her with interest. Under the dark car lights, white light shone on her face. Her skin was as white as jade, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and the blush on her face made her look as beautiful as the sunset.
"Why?"
Jiang Meishu bit her lip and glared at him angrily, "Why? I just told you to scream normally."
His voice was so sweet that it made her feel like her ears were pregnant.
Liang Qiurun knew that she was shy, and he thought she looked particularly beautiful when she was shy, with all the purity and charm of a girl.
He smiled, his brows softening. "Okay, okay."
His voice was deliberately rough, "Jiang Jiang."
He spoke in a rough and gruff voice. If you didn't see him, just hearing his voice you would think he was a rough guy.
This made Jiang Meishu burst into laughter. She couldn't help but raise her voice, "Liang Qiurun, be more normal."
Liang Qiurun laughed at her, "This won't work, and that won't work either."
"Then how do you want me to shout?"
As he said this, his eyes never left her. There was not a trace of grease in his eyes, but rather a touch of pure appreciation.
This is the 33-year-old Liang Qiurun, envying and admiring the 22-year-old Jiang Meishu.
She was too young and beautiful.
She only had to stand there to make him unable to look away.
He was looking at Jiang Meishu, but not Jiang Meishu.
That was the youth he had lost.
Now, he made up for it again with Jiang Meishu.
Facing Liang Qiurun's question, Jiang Meishu thought for a moment and said, "Just call me normally, Xiao Jiang, Jiang Jiang, it's all fine."
In fact, she wanted the other person to call her Shushu, but this name was too straightforward and it was easy to think of Jiang Meishu.
She didn't dare take the risk.
Liang Qiurun cleared his throat and suddenly called out in a clear and melodious voice, "Jiang Jiang."
It's like broadcasting quality.
Jiang Meishu's head almost exploded. When she came to her senses, she said with sparkling eyes, "Lao Liang, your scream is so beautiful."
"Shout a few more times."
She is a sound control freak. In her previous life, she loved male announcers so much. When she hears that kind of voice, she gets goosebumps all over her body.
I feel like my ears are going to get pregnant.
Liang Qiurun didn't agree with her. He raised his hand and straightened her collar. "Your face is frozen white. Why don't you go back?"
The two were fooling around at the entrance of the alley. The wind was so strong that it made people's heads numb.
Jiang Meishu was shocked to realize that her hands and feet were numb from the cold. She stamped her feet and blew out a breath of warm air, "I'll go back now."
Liang Qiurun hummed a yes and walked her into the compound. It was already late, and a layer of frost had fallen on the steps at the entrance of the compound.
Liang Qiurun frowned and looked for a moment. After he went in, he said, "Don't go out tomorrow morning. Wait for me to pick you up."
Judging from the weather, it's going to snow.
Jiang Meishu nodded, "Okay."
"About what time will you arrive?"
Liang Qiurun thought for a moment and said in a clear voice, "It will probably be after 7:30. Secretary He doesn't go to work that early in the morning."
The other party wants eight o'clock.
Jiang Meishu nodded, stood at the door, and waved at him, "Then I'll wait for you to pick me up tomorrow morning."
Liang Qiurun stood at the bottom of the stairs and looked at her. She was wearing very thick clothes, but because she was thin, the coat did not look bulky on her, but rather a little thin.
The shoulders are thin and the back is thin.
The little one waving is so cute.
Liang Qiurun smiled and said, "Go in quickly. I'll watch you go in and then leave."
It turns out that I hate sticky personalities the most.
Now he has become this kind of character.
Jiang Meishu let out a cheerful cry and trotted into the courtyard. Liang Qiurun waited until her back was out of sight.
Then he turned and left the alley, walking in the night. His black coat blended in with the darkness, and only his fair and gentle face was exceptionally handsome. If you looked closely, you would find that it was even brighter than the moon.
Jiang Meishu ran to the door of her house in one breath. She thought everyone in the family was asleep, but she didn't expect it was already past eight o'clock.
The house is still bright.
As soon as she pushed the door open, several pairs of eyes from the whole family looked at her.
"Look, Meilan is back." Wang Limei sneered, "Lin Qiaoling, repeat what you said before to Meilan."
Lin Qiaoling didn't expect that Jiang Meishu would come back at such a coincidence. She was not afraid when her mother-in-law called her name. She was a little nervous, but she thought that being nervous would not solve the problem, and the only way to solve it was to be shameless.
After thinking it all through.
Lin Qiaoling stood up and greeted Jiang Meishu warmly, first playing the emotional card, "Meilan, you're back?"
"Have you and Director Liang obtained your marriage certificate?"
Jiang Meishu was not used to Lin Qiaoling's enthusiasm, which made her feel like she was being touched by tentacles, and she subconsciously pulled her arm away.
"not yet."
The smile on his face also faded a little.
"ah?"
Lin Qiaoling was a little surprised, "Why didn't you get the marriage certificate?"
Jiang Meishu didn't like Lin Qiaoling's overly enthusiastic smile. She pursed her lips and said lightly, "This is my business."
Lin Qiaoling was completely stumped by this, and she looked to her mother-in-law, Wang Limei, for help.
Unfortunately, Wang Limei was angry with Lin Qiaoling before, so she didn't want to ask or care at all.
Jiang Chenliang asked, "Meilan, why don't you have a marriage certificate?"
Jiang Chenliang has already felt the glory of being Director Liang's father-in-law.
Facing her father's question, Jiang Meishu finally answered slowly, "I haven't got the marriage certificate yet. I'll get a new one tomorrow and then go get the certificate."
Hearing this was the reason, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, when things had come to this point, no one in the Jiang family wanted to let Jiang Meishu lose Liang Qiurun.
"Why isn't everyone asleep? What are you doing in the living room?"
Even the nerd Jiang Nanfang was sitting in the main room, holding a book in his hand and reciting silently.
When Jiang Meishu asked this, the room suddenly became quiet.
There was only the sound of Jiang Nanfang silently reciting.
"Why aren't you talking?"
Wang Limei opened her mouth, but finally closed it because she couldn't open it.
Jiang Dali looked at this and that, then lowered his head.
Several children noticed that the atmosphere among the adults was a bit tense, and they all breathed a little lighter to reduce their presence.
Everyone looked at Lin Qiaoling.
Being watched by so many people, Lin Qiaoling hesitated. She felt that if she spoke in front of Jiang Meishu, she would completely offend her.
After all, having a sister-in-law who marries into a wealthy family definitely has more advantages than disadvantages. Once you offend her, you may not be able to gain any benefits in the future.
"Is there anything you can't say?"
Jiang Nanfang, the bookworm who had been reciting his lessons, suddenly closed the book and said calmly, "Didn't my sister-in-law ask my sister to keep half of the betrothal gifts at home?"
"We were discussing this quite heatedly before, but why are we not talking about it now?"
Jiang Meishu finally understood why everyone was quiet and why Jiang Nanfang, the nerd who only knew how to read, was staying in the main room.
It turns out he was waiting here.
Some things are very difficult to talk about, but once you say them, the effect will be different.
Lin Qiaoling laughed awkwardly, "Nanfang, don't speak like that. Which of us women doesn't miss our parents' home after getting married?"
"Take my wedding for example. I kept half of the betrothal gift from the Jiang family for my parents."
"So." She looked at Jiang Meishu eagerly, "Meilan, you can understand me too, right?"
"After all, what girl wouldn't care about her parents' family?"
Jiang Meishu understood, how could she not understand? She didn't expect that after getting engaged at noon, the whole family would sit together in the evening to discuss, no, to calculate her betrothal gift.
Jiang Meishu pinched her fingers hard and pinched the palm of her hand with her nails. The pain made her head a little clearer.
"What do you want to say?" Her pale face was tense, her expression was slightly cold, and so was her voice.
Jiang Meishu has always been well-behaved and gentle. In front of the whole family, she doesn't even raise her voice a bit.
But at this moment, everyone could sense her anger.
His dark eyes stared at Lin Qiaoling. She didn't realize that she was already under the pressure of Liang Qiurun.
It turns out that when familiar people are together, their personalities can be contagious, even their habits.
Lin Qiaoling never knew that her weak sister-in-law would be so oppressive.
Staring at the other person's calm eyes, she said with a stiff upper lip, "Meilan, don't blame your sister-in-law."
"I've also left you a way out."
"Of the 1,888 betrothal gifts, leave half for this poor, shabby family."
This is a very clever statement. It shows weakness, greed, or brainwashing. It depends on what Jiang Meishu thinks.
Of course, Lin Qiaoling hopes that Jiang Meishu is the latter. There is no daughter in this world who does not support her mother's family. If she rebels, she will be brainwashed.
Tell her how poor your family is, how difficult life is, and how hard her parents work.
When faced with blood ties, most girls would not refuse.
Most people will choose to go along with it and agree.
After all, her mother-in-law is one, and so is she.
In fact, every girl who got married around Lin Qiaoling was like this.
She didn't think Jiang Meishu had the ability and courage to fight against her relatives, her family, and the current situation in society.
It turns out that when anger reaches its extreme, the rage really rushes straight to the head.
Jiang Meishu is like this now. She feels like her whole body is on fire.
His face was also hot, but his head, which was burning like fire, became clearer.
"Whose idea was this?" she asked coldly.
She needs to figure this out, this is extremely important to her.
Faced with her questioning, Lin Qiaoling remained silent.
The house was quiet.
Jiang Meishu stared at her with a sharp gaze, "Is it yours? Or my father's, or my mother's? Or is it the opinion of my eldest brother and the whole family?"
If it were just the former, she felt she wouldn't be so sad.
If it was the latter, Jiang Meishu didn't want to think about it, nor did she want to think about it.
Lin Qiaoling's scalp tingled under her gaze. She tried to calm herself down and said, "It's mine."
Even though she got the result she wanted, Jiang Meishu did not feel relieved.
But Lin Qiaoling simply threw everything out there, saying, "Meilan, if you leave half of the betrothal gifts at home, you can get married smoothly."
"What if I don't?" Jiang Meishu said stubbornly.
She could take the initiative to save some of the betrothal gifts for her parents to rely on, but she would never be threatened or forcibly deprived of the betrothal gifts in this manner.
Jiang Meishu's personality is gentle and obedient, but that's just on the surface. In fact, Jiang Meilan knows better than anyone else the stubbornness deep in her heart.
Lin Qiaoling didn't expect her to refuse directly. Her tone immediately became higher. "If you don't, your reputation will be ruined."
"Go ask around our entire compound, which girl who gets married doesn't leave her betrothal gift at home?"
"If you don't stay at home, then your parents will have raised you for nothing. Will they raise you like this and then marry you off to your husband's family and be filial to someone else's parents?"
This is the most common form of brainwashing nowadays.
This will also make every married daughter feel guilty, as she has just reached the age to earn money and has already gone to her husband's family.
But is it really like that?
Jiang Meishu suddenly asked, "You mean if I leave half of the betrothal gift at home, I will cut off ties with my parents and won't have to support them in their old age."
"Even..." She pointed at Lin Qiaoli, Jiang Dali, and her three nephews and nieces.
"Sever ties with you too?"
When Lin Qiaoli heard this, she subconsciously retorted, "How is this possible?"
"Just because you're married, don't you mean you're no longer a Jiang family girl? Don't forget, you still have the Jiang family's blood flowing in your veins."
Jiang Meishu smiled coldly, "Yes, when I was old, I remembered that I had the blood of the Jiang family flowing in my body, but when I got married, I became someone else's family."
"Lin Qiaoling, do you want to see how hypocritical you really are?"
Lin Qiaoli blushed at this, "I'm not as educated as you, Meilan. I know you're not convinced and don't want to leave the money at home, but all the girls around me are like this. When they grow up, the betrothal gift is used to stay in their parents' home and to honor their parents."
Jiang Meishu's mind was clearer than ever. She walked up to Lin Qiaoling and said, "Yes, you know I stayed here to honor my parents. What does it have to do with you?"
"Who do you think you are, jumping around here?" The ending tone was raised and emphasized, but clear enough for everyone to hear.
This is really harsh to say.
Lin Qiaoli was trampled into the mud, and her face flushed red on the spot. "How can you talk like that? I'm the eldest sister-in-law, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. Is that how you talk about your elders?"
Jiang Meishu said coldly, "My mother is not dead yet, how can you, an outsider, take advantage of me?"
this--
The room suddenly became quiet.
No one knew that the well-behaved and weak Jiang Meishu actually had such a sharp tongue that she left Lin Qiaoling speechless.
Lin Qiaoling burst into tears. "Who am I doing this for? I'm doing this for this shabby, poor family. You married well, and you're living a life of luxury in the Liang family. Do you really not care that these people in your mother's family can't even afford porridge and are starving?"
“Don’t forget!!”
"When you were unemployed and at home, who supported you?"
Wang Limei couldn't bear it any longer. She slammed the table and said, "Lin Qiaoling, that's enough."
"What? Are you raising my daughter?"
Lin Qiaoling was shocked. "Didn't I support her? Didn't I spend Dali's salary? Didn't I spend my father-in-law's salary?"
"Now that she's married well, I want her to give back to her family. Is that wrong?"
"If you think I did something wrong, then go out and judge for yourself. Let the neighbors in the compound see for themselves whether what I, Lin Qiaoling, did was really excessive."
It seemed that the family affairs were about to be exposed.
"Then let's go out and make a scene."
Jiang Meishu stood there, her face calm as she said, "The bigger the commotion, the better. It would be best if the Liang family finds out and they come over to cancel this marriage."
"Take back the betrothal gifts, and everyone will be happy."
This family can only be poor, but when they are poor, they are harmonious and everyone is happy.
Once a little bit of money comes in, the family will fall apart and the original family members will become hateful.
As soon as Jiang Meishu finished speaking, the room suddenly became quiet.
Lin Qiaoling even stood up from her chair. "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Jiang Meishu said calmly, "I know."
"Don't you want a betrothal gift? Then just give it back to the other party."
"Without the betrothal gift, will the family be at peace?" he asked with a hint of sarcasm.
Lin Qiaoling didn't hear anything at all. She was just shocked. "Director Liang offered such good conditions, and you asked him to cancel the engagement? You don't want it anymore?"
"Jiang Meilan, are you mentally ill?"
Jiang Meishu stood in front of her in a flash, grabbed a jar of cold water from the table and poured it over her. "Shouldn't you be the one with the problem?"
"Aren't you starting to miss my betrothal gift?"
"I'm going to flip the table and stop playing. Is that okay?"
Jiang Meishu is weak, but not cowardly. It is impossible for her to let others slap her in the face and then slap them back.
The water splashed on my face, freezing cold.
Lin Qiaoling sobered up instantly, but Jiang Dali stood up and shouted coldly, "Meilan, what are you doing?"
Jiang Meishu stood still and said in a contemptuous voice, "My dear brother, are you not deaf anymore?"
Jiang Dali's face suddenly turned ugly.
"It's true. Only after I met money did I realize what my family members were like."
These words were like a slap in Jiang Dali's face. He stammered, "Meilan, why do you have to be like this? If you're living a good life, isn't it normal for you to support your family?"
"Just like when you were at home and not working, I would bring you your favorite baked sweet potatoes when I got home from get off work."
Jiang Meishu, "Yes, Big Brother was nice to me before, but Big Brother, do you understand? The roasted sweet potatoes you brought me are different from the roasted sweet potatoes I asked you for."
"What's the difference?"
Jiang Dali couldn't quite understand.
Jiang Meishu was a little tired. She didn't want to explain anymore. She just looked up at Wang Limei and Jiang Chenliang.
"Mom and Dad."
"Is it your intention to let me keep half of the betrothal gift?"
Finally asked.
Wang Limei looked at her daughter's pale face. She raised her hand with some heartache and wanted to touch her face, but Jiang Meishu avoided her hand.
"Is that what you meant?"
She asked.
Asked stubbornly.
Wang Limei, "Child, I never meant that."
She had never thought of leaving a penny of dowry for her daughter. After the previous experience, she was afraid. The little girl looked sweet and gentle, but in fact, she was either black or white.
Compared to the eldest daughter, she was obviously less worldly-wise.
"I only regret that our family is poor and cannot give you a better dowry, so you can't hold your head up when you go to the Liang family."
Jiang Meishu looked at her, her eyes filled with tears, but she didn't say whether she believed it or not.
She lost her previous toughness and calmness. Instead, she sniffed her red nose and turned to ask Jiang Chenliang, "Dad, how about you?"
Jiang Chenliang looked at the child like this and sighed, "I thought before that since you received so much betrothal gifts, you should save some for your studies in the south."
Before he even finished speaking, Jiang Nanfang directly refused, "I don't want it."
He spoke each word with great emphasis, "I don't want my sister's betrothal gift, give it to me as tuition."
"Dad, she is my sister, not an outsider. There is no need for the whole family to lie on her and suck her blood."
"That betrothal gift was given to her by Director Liang, not to us. I don't understand why everyone is so focused on that gift."
This is what Jiang Nanfang really wants to say.
Jiang Meishu, who had always been strong, burst into tears after hearing his words.
It's heartbreaking to see her cry.
Because only at this moment did she feel that there was someone behind her. When she was confronting Lin Qiaoling before, Jiang Meishu felt as if she had been abandoned by her family.
She stood against everyone.
Just because she didn't want to give half of the betrothal gift.
Just because of this.
She became a sinner.
However, the appearance of Jiang Nanfang made Jiang Meishu's broken heart feel full again.
It turns out that not every family member is thinking about the bride price.
"Nanfang, you're still a child, you don't understand." Lin Qiaoling said, "If your sister could keep half of this betrothal gift, you would have an extra ten kilograms of food every month, so you wouldn't have to go hungry anymore. It would even cover your tuition and living expenses for high school and college."
She attempted to incite Jiangnan Fang to rebel.
Jiang Nanfang asked back, "So, you used the money from my sister's prostitution to pay for my college education?"
The introverted boy finally said the most sharp words.
"Use the money from my sister's prostitution to support you, my elder brother, and your three children?"
This is too sharp and too straightforward.
This made Lin Qiaoling and Jiang Dali's faces flush instantly. "Nanfang, you are still a five-good student, why do you say such harsh words?"
Jiang Nanfang, "Isn't it that what you did is ugly?"
"You are so concerned about my sister's betrothal gift, what did you give her? When my sister married into our Jiang family, as the eldest brother and sister-in-law, did you give her money or tickets? At the very least, you can give my sister one of your jobs."
"Is there?"
Of course not.
Jiang Nanfang walked up to Jiang Dali holding a book.
"I want to ask, why?"
"Big brother, you used to earn 27 yuan a month, but you spent less than one yuan on my sister? You said my sister was eating for free at home."
"Brother and sister-in-law, ask yourselves, did my sister really eat it? You went out to work after giving birth, and my mother was busy making matchboxes. Who raised your three children?"
Who raised them? Of course, it was Jiang Meishu and Jiang Meilan, the idlers in the family.
Lin Qiaoling fell silent.
Jiang Dali wanted to refute, but he had no way to refute.
On the contrary, the fifteen-year-old Jiang Nanfang showed his decisiveness for the first time at home, "Mom and Dad, let's split up the family."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
Jiang Dali said reflexively, "No."
He has three children. If the family splits up, how will he be able to support them? Besides, there will be no one to cook or take care of the children.
He and Lin Qiaoling both work and have no time to visit their family.
"It has to be divided."
"Brother, otherwise, if you are thinking about my sister's betrothal gift now, you will also think about Director Liang's power in the future."
"The disasters and hidden dangers should not have been left in the first place."
Jiang Nanfang said calmly.
This was the first story he had seen from history.
It’s just that in history it was a country, and here it is a family, but in essence, there is no difference between family and country.
It's just a matter of size.
Jiang Nanfang's decisiveness was unexpected by everyone present.
Jiang Chenliang subconsciously said, "Nanfang, it can't be like this, right?"
Jiang Nanfang stood next to Jiang Meishu. The sixteen-year-old boy was half a head taller than Jiang Meishu. Although he was thin, he had broad shoulders.
"As for that, Dad."
"If there is one, there will be two. If you want to solve a problem, you have to solve it from the root."
"Dividing the family is the best solution for our family right now. Otherwise, in the end, my sister will break with the family, and my eldest brother and his wife will make the family home restless. Even your parents' old age will be unhappy."
Jiangnan Fang doesn't talk much, but he has great vision.
He could see the future direction of the Jiang family from this betrothal gift issue.
Jiang Chenliang was a little shaken.
"Dad, you better think about who will support you in your old age."
Jiang Dali definitely didn't want to divide the family, so he said this. Of course, this was also the sentence his wife Lin Qiaoling said most often.
All I can say is that birds of a feather flock together, and the couple are essentially the same.
Jiang Chenliang didn't say anything.
Wang Limei sneered, "Why? If we don't separate, will you and Lin Qiaoling provide for our retirement?"
"Dali, ask yourself, can you do it?"
Without waiting for Jiang Dali to answer, she said, "No."
"Because you're even thinking about your dear sister's betrothal gift, and when she doesn't give it, you're trying to ruin her reputation. With people like you, do you think your father and I can rest assured and let you take care of us in our old age?"
Jiang Dali wanted to argue, "That's different."
He was also good to his sister. However, he wanted her to keep the betrothal gift, which was something every family would do. Why did it become such a big deal in their family?
It's time to split up.
"Same thing, no feelings towards relatives, only interests."
Wang Limei said, "I used to think it was Lin Qiaoling who was left-leaning, but now it seems that it's you who is left-leaning. It's just that Qiaoling is a barking dog, and you are a dog that doesn't bark."
No mother would speak of her child in this way.
Jiang Dali was unconvinced, "Mom."
Unfortunately, Wang Limei didn't look at him, but said to Jiang Chenliang, "Old Jiang, let's split up the family."
"Nanfang is right. If we don't separate, our family will be torn apart in the end."
Jiang Chenliang was still a little hesitant. "If we divide it like this, Dali and I will have a complete falling out. There's absolutely no one in the world who doesn't want to live with their eldest son."
He has traditional ideas and believes that his retirement support depends on his eldest son.
Wang Limei was a little angry at Jiang Chenliang's stupidity.
"Do you think that given their personalities, they can provide for your retirement?"
She used to think it was okay, but that was because she didn't see the benefits, so it was all good for you, me, and everyone else. But now she looks at it.
The eldest brother's family is useless.
It's a selfish thing.
It is simply a pipe dream to expect such people to provide for their retirement.
Jiang Chenliang was still hesitating.
Jiang Nanfang spoke up, "Dad, don't you expect me to study hard and bring honor to our family? I don't know what I'll be able to do in the future after I graduate, but I know for sure that you will have a good life."
"Because of me."
This is the Jiangnan style.
That introverted and shy boy who only knows how to study actually has a lot of ideas and values in his heart.
These words gave Jiang Chenliang some confidence.
Jiang Meishu also said, "Let's split it up."
"Let's split up. I'll take care of you in your old age."
"And me."
Jiang Meilan had walked in at some point, and said, "I will also provide for your retirement."
She was holding an enamel pot of braised pork offal in her hand. She had originally wanted to come over in the evening to ask if Meishu had returned.
Have you got the marriage certificate?
Unexpectedly, I heard this scene at the door.
Jiang Chenliang has four children, and three of them said they would support him in his old age.
"The premise is separation."
"Dad, let's split the family."
Jiang Meilan said, "Otherwise, in the end, our whole family will be alienated."
"If you hesitate to make a decision when you should, you will suffer the consequences."
"You taught me this principle before." However, what Jiang Chenliang taught me was how to kill a pig. You have to be quick, accurate and ruthless, and stab it in with one stab.
If you hesitate for a moment, you may be counterattacked by the dying pig.
Now, Lin Qiaoling and Jiang Dali are the dying pigs.
Jiang Chenliang has been shaken.
Jiang Dali said hurriedly, "Dad, I was wrong. Qiaoling and I shouldn't have tried to calculate my sister's betrothal gift. We were really wrong."
"Dad, we are a family."
"Dale, call grandpa quickly."
Dale shouted in confusion, "Grandpa, I don't want to be separated from you."
Jiang Chenliang was struggling because his three children were all his family's blood.
I saw his hesitation.
Jiang Meishu said softly, "Then I'll go, Dad."
"When I get married, I will be a member of the Liang family and will have nothing to do with the Jiang family."
"It has nothing to do with Jiang Dali and Lin Qiaoling."
"I won't allow them to take away Liang Qiurun's attention, otherwise—"
Everyone understands what is left unsaid.
"And me."
Jiang Meilan stood up and held her sister's shaking hand tightly. "When I got married before, Lin Qiaoling made trouble once. I knew about it, but I didn't take it seriously."
"Since you don't like us girls marrying out, then just pretend we don't exist."
"From now on, we will never see each other again until we die."
That's a harsh statement.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became stagnant.
Jiang Chenliang smiled bitterly and said, "Why are you doing this?"
"Dad, it's not us who are in trouble. It's my eldest brother and his wife who are pressing us step by step. We have no way out."
Jiang Meishu's eyes were red as she pointed at Jiang Meilan, as if she wanted to vent all her previous grievances.
"The day after Meishu got married, Lin Qiaoling was already thinking about Meishu's bed. It was only 1.2 meters wide, and she didn't want to stay."
"Dad, you keep asking why Meishu didn't come home after she got married. She has no home anymore. There's no bed at home. What is she doing here? As a guest?"
"And me, I haven't even gotten married yet, but someone's already coveted my bed, and my betrothal gift. Why don't you just take off this layer of clothing from me, too?"
"This way we can repay the kindness of bearing me and raising me, and we can have no further contact in the future when we grow old and die."
This is forcing Jiang and Chen Liang to make a choice.
He knew that if he didn't make a choice, this family would be completely broken up from today.
Jiang Chenliang closed his eyes and said through gritted teeth, "Then! Divide! The family!"
