Jiang Shushu: "..." Private matters? What private matters do I have? I've been very law-abiding recently and haven't done anything illegal.
"I certainly won't blame you. What is it? Tell me."
"I'm on patrol every day, and your partner's home happens to be in the area I patrol. Since you and Grandpa Jiang have been taking such good care of me, I wanted to help you find out about the Yan family's character and family atmosphere. I wouldn't know until I do, but once I do, I'll be shocked. The Yan family is always fighting between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law. It can be said that there's a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days... The family atmosphere is particularly bad. When we look for a partner, we can't just look at the person, we also have to look at his family situation, don't you think?"
More than a month had passed since the incident, and Jiang Shushu hadn't thought about Yan Beiyang for a long time, let alone seen him. When she suddenly heard about what happened in Yan Beiyang's family, she didn't know what to say for a moment, so she let Yang Xiaobei finish what he was saying.
"Yang Xiaobei, thank you for your concern."
"Of course you should. You should think about your partner carefully. What I said is all true. You can also ask about it when you are free." Yang Xiaobei was afraid that Jiang Shushu would not believe him, so he quickly suggested.
"No need, there's nothing to ask. The Yan family has nothing to do with me." I won't have any dealings with them in the future. What does it have to do with me whether they are good or bad?
Yang Xiaobei frowned and advised, "This concerns your happiness for the rest of your life. Marriage is a matter of two families. If your mother-in-law and sisters-in-law don't get along well, even if your husband is a good person, they can still make you angry. Especially your mother-in-law, you can't hit her or scold her. You have a small family, so you may not understand this aspect. You can ask your colleagues and you will know."
"I understand what you said. What I meant by it has nothing to do with the Yan family is that I broke up with Yan Beiyang. He and his family have nothing to do with me, so I don't care what happens to his family."
Yang Xiaobei was shocked: "We broke up. When did it happen? Why did we break up?"
"We broke up over a month ago. His family didn't like me."
When Yang Xiaobei heard that Jiang Shushu had been dumped, he smiled awkwardly, "Yeah, I'm sorry. I didn't understand the situation clearly, so I came to you and said some nonsense." If I had known earlier, I should have found out more. Isn't this embarrassing? He went to someone else and exposed their scars.
"You meant well. I can't thank you enough, so how could I blame you? Besides, it happened over a month ago, and I've long since moved on."
Yang Xiaobei stole a glance at Jiang Shushu's face and saw that she didn't seem to be lying and had really let it go, so he felt relieved.
"It's their loss that they didn't fancy you. You're good-looking, have a job, are rich, and are capable. With your qualifications, you can find anyone. Your next partner will definitely be better. Given the noisy atmosphere in the Yan family, it's a blessing that you don't have to enter their home. Don't be sad for a man like this. He's not worth it."
Jiang Shushu smiled and said, "Okay, stop coaxing me. I'm not a three-year-old child. I can process my emotions. Yan Beiyang is a very good person. He has done nothing wrong to me. It's just that we are not suitable. Anyway, thank you for what happened today."
Yang Xiaobei: "..." She spoke so highly of that man, could it be that she still had feelings for him? It's not possible that the moment that man turned around, Jiang Shushu would immediately dive in! If that were the case, Grandpa Jiang would probably be furious.
"Jiang Shushu, you have good conditions in all aspects. You should be an ideal daughter-in-law. Why don't they like you?" You have to know the reason to solve the problem fundamentally.
Jiang Shushu looked at Yang Xiaobei, his eyes revealing, "Why are you so gossipy?"
"Haha, I'm just asking you. If you don't want to tell me, forget it."
"It's nothing. I plan to live with my parents in the future and take care of them until they die. Before I started dating Yan Beiyang, I asked him if he minded and if his family minded. He said neither he nor his family minded, and then we started dating. But when I visited him a month ago, I found that everyone in the Yan family, except Yan Beiyang, minded. We have different paths and cannot work together, so we broke up."
Yang Xiaobei: "..." No wonder the Yan family looks down on Jiang Shushu. Retirement is indeed a big problem. If it were me, I would not be willing to support an idler. After all, money doesn't come from the wind. If I support one more person, I will have to spend a lot less.
"They agreed and then went back on their word. The Yan family is really not a good family. However, caring for the elderly is very expensive, so it is understandable that they did not agree." No one wants to be a sucker. I understand this, but if you can't do it, don't agree. If you agree, you must do it, otherwise it will not only waste people's time, but also deceive people's feelings.
Jiang Shushu rolled his eyes at Yang Xiaobei. "Do I look like someone who would take advantage of someone? I told him before we even started dating that I would take care of my parents' food, clothing, housing, and transportation. He wouldn't have to pay for anything. I just wanted my parents to live with me or next door so it would be easier to take care of them. The Yan family thought it would be bad for their reputation, and since their daughter-in-law was making a fuss, they changed their minds at the last minute."
"Haha, so that's how it is. That family didn't have to pay, and they went back on their word. It's obvious that they have very average character. You'd better not enter their house, otherwise not only will you suffer in the future, but your parents will too."
Damn, I almost forgot Jiang Shushu is a wealthy woman. Just look at what she eats, wears, and uses. You can tell she's never short of money. At first, I thought it was the Yan family who was supporting someone else. They're so stingy. You're not even paying for your retirement, so why are you complaining so much?
There is no need to spend money on retirement, but Yan Beiyang can't even handle such a simple matter. Either he lacks courage or his family status is not good enough. It is better to separate from such a person.
"I can only say that we are not destined to be together. Yang Xiaobei, thank you for today. When my dad comes, I will treat you to a meal." Then let Jiang He bring a meal to Yang Xiaobei to thank him for what he did for him today.
"You're welcome. No, no, I've said everything I wanted to say. You're tired after a day's work, so go back and get some rest."
"Then I'll be leaving first."
Jiang Shushu had just finished speaking when suddenly a man ran past her like a gust of wind, followed closely by a group of people.
Jiang Shushu had very good eyesight and immediately recognized the person running over - his cousin Jiang Xiaoan.
Jiang Shushu pushed the bicycle forward, just blocking the group of people. Jiang Shushu cursed: "Who is this? How dare you push my bicycle in the middle of the night? It's better not to let me see you, otherwise I will beat you. The bicycle I repaired with great difficulty is scratched again." Jiang Shushu looked at the bicycle with a distressed face.
Because of Jiang Shushu's delay, when the group looked up again, they could no longer see Jiang Xiaoan.
