Chapter 2: Difficulties from Mother-in-law
Before Jiang Chu could say anything, Fu Ciyan raised his other hand high and explained to Tao Wan: "Mom, big brother can't get divorced casually."
Because of Fu Yuanzhou's special status, his marriage is protected by law, and both parties cannot divorce at will.
This is also the reason why the Fu family tolerated Jiang Chu for so long. This marriage cannot be divorced at all!
Tao Wan was so angry that she hit her son who was ruining the show: "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
She is not stupid. Fu Yuanzhou is at a critical moment of promotion. If the two divorce now, it will definitely affect his promotion.
She just wanted to warn Jiang Chu to behave himself, but this stupid son just revealed everything.
What if she takes advantage of the fact that Fu Yuanzhou can't divorce her now and continues to act recklessly in the Fu family?
How could she give birth to such a stupid son!
Tao Wan had forgotten that Fu Ciyan was injured at this moment and was grabbing his ear tightly.
Fu Ciyan felt a headache on his forehead and ears, and grimaced, "Mom...Mom..."
“Hiss—it hurts!”
"Wrong—wrong—I won't do it again."
Tao Wan snorted coldly, noticing the swelling on his forehead: "Go downstairs and find Doctor Zhang to treat it."
Fu Ciyan covered the big bump on his head with one hand and his red ears with the other hand, and walked downstairs dejectedly.
Jiang Chu was watching this farce from the side. His eyes suddenly swept over the jade Buddha wrapped tightly in black mist on Tao Wan's neck. His eyes darkened: "You jade Buddha..."
As Jiang Chu started to speak, Tao Wan showed displeasure: "This is a consecrated jade Buddha given to me by my friend. Don't ask for everything."
After saying that, he saw Jiang Chu's gloomy eyes and added: "It will only be useful if I hold it. It will be useless if you hold it."
Tao Wan knew that this would damage her dignity, but she had to do it because Jiang Chu had taken a fancy to her necklace before and snatched it from her.
This jade Buddha was given to her by her best friend and cannot be stolen.
Jiang Chu was just about to tell her that the jade Buddha had an evil aura and was a very dangerous object when he met her defensive gaze.
Jiang Chu then remembered that it was the 1980s, and in Tao Wan's eyes, she was just a willful and vicious daughter-in-law. No matter what Jiang Chu said, Tao Wan would not believe it.
Seeing that the evil creature hadn't controlled her expression just now, Tao Wan was now very wary of her. No matter what she said next, Tao Wan would think that she was trying to deceive the jade Buddha and would never let her touch it again.
Jiang Chu lightly tapped his fingertips, and a golden light flashed in the air, silently falling onto the jade Buddha and wrapping it.
Doing this can temporarily seal the evil spirit for three days, and she will use this time to find out where the jade Buddha came from.
In fact, she could also get rid of the evil spirit without anyone noticing, but that would alert the enemy. The aura of this jade Buddha always felt a little familiar.
Jiang Chu smiled and said to Tao Wan, "I just saw that my mother-in-law's jade Buddha is very unique. I wanted to ask which temple she got it from. I want to go and get one if I have the chance."
Tao Wan was disgusted by her smile and turned to go downstairs. Before leaving, she said, "You've never been nice to us before, but now you're talking to me with a smile, and you dare to say you don't have ulterior motives! If you want the Jade Buddha, go find it yourself, don't think about mine."
Tao Wan's look of disgust irritated Jiang Chu. She immediately put away her smile and quickly walked to the dressing table to look in the mirror.
This was the first time Jiang Chu saw this face. Unlike her cold appearance in her previous life, the original owner was a bright and beautiful woman.
Jiang Chu muttered, "No matter how hard-hearted a person is, they will smile when they see this face."
"But why is the original owner's appearance so different from the actual situation? This person should be very popular no matter where he is. Is it because the person in his body now is me?"
I can't tell anything by looking at my own face.
Jiang Chu admired the beauty of this body from all directions again. There was nothing he could do about it, he was a natural beauty addict.
It wasn't until her stomach growled that she remembered she hadn't eaten yet.
Jiang Chu opened the wardrobe and found that the clothes inside were all simple skirts, and the few tops were also very plain.
There were also a few food coupons and a few one-yuan banknotes next to it. This was all Jiang Chu's belongings.
After all, the original owner's family was in business, and she married into a powerful military officer's family. How could she be so poor?
Jiang Chu only felt that the burden on his shoulders was getting heavier and heavier.
Finally, I picked a white skirt at random, found a wooden hairpin to tie my hair up casually, and went downstairs to eat.
After all, eating is the most important thing in the world.
The three people at the table had already started eating, and the sound of the two Fu brothers and sisters playing could be heard while walking on the stairs.
Until Jiang Chu approached, the voices and laughter disappeared instantly, leaving only the occasional clash of cutlery.
Jiang Chu didn't care about this cold violence. He sat down calmly, picked up his chopsticks and started eating slowly.
There was no intention of talking to them at all.
Fu Ciyan and Tao Wan talked about what happened in the corridor.
He was very angry when he knew that Jiang Chu said Fu Ciyan would suffer a bloody disaster.
Isn't this just cursing him to get into trouble?
Tao Wan decided to be a wicked mother-in-law and make things difficult for Jiang Chu.
Tao Wan looked at the chicken soup in the white porcelain bowl and raised her chin to Jiang Chu: "Pour me a bowl of soup with the lotus bowl and serve it to me personally."
The bowl was very small and the rim did not turn outward, which meant that Jiang Chu would definitely burn his hands when he picked it up.
Jiang Chu pretended not to notice her intention, and his words were full of consideration for her: "The soup is so hot, mother-in-law, you should wait until the temperature drops a little before drinking it, otherwise you will get burned."
Hearing this gentle voice, the three of them showed the same shock, and their eyes almost wrote "You took the wrong medicine today" on their foreheads.
Jiang Chu's mouth twitched slightly, and he complained in his heart.
Don't look like you've seen a ghost, she's smiling so gently.
Tao Wan quickly adjusted her expression, placed her hands on the table, stared at Jiang Chu intently, and put on a fierce look: "I was even asked to serve a bowl of soup, and you're still resisting. You've been married into our Fu family for three months, and I think you're becoming more and more ignorant of the rules!"
Jiang Chu sighed helplessly, holding the spoon in one hand and supporting the bottom of the bowl with the other, and started to scoop the soup.
Jiang Chu poured the soup into the bowl with a calm expression.
The three of them were shocked.
Fu Ciyan couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you hot?"
Jiang Chu stopped what he was doing and smiled at him: "The chicken soup is just the right temperature. Would you like a bowl too?"
Fu Ciyan was dazzled by her smile and nodded subconsciously.
Jiang Chu finished the bowl of soup and brought it to Tao Wan: "Mother-in-law, please have some."
Tao Wan gave the bowl in front of her a condescending look and nodded with dignity and coolness: "Yes."
She felt sorry that the chicken soup had gone cold and couldn't warm Jiang Chu.
Jiang Chu quickly scooped another bowl of soup and placed it in front of Fu Ciyan, then sat back in his original seat. The spiritual energy wrapped in his hands also dissipated at the same time.
Jiang Chu was chewing some vegetables, but his attention was on the two people in front of him.
If it was any other soup, Jiang Chu wouldn't be able to fool them, but this bowl of chicken soup was oily and she also used her spiritual power to prevent the heat from spreading when making the soup, so outsiders would never imagine that the soup was very hot.
The mother and son picked up the spoon at the same time and scooped a mouthful of soup. The moment their mouths touched the soup, the spoon fell.
"hiss--"
The two of them picked up the cold water on the table and drank it.
Jiang Chu's lips curled slightly, and the moment he looked up, his expression turned concerned: "Is the soup not to your liking?"
Fu Ciyan had been suffering from mouth ulcers for the past few days, and after drinking this spoonful of hot soup, another blister appeared on his tongue.
He couldn't even speak clearly: "The soup was so hot that you didn't even wake up."
(You didn't even remind me that the soup was so hot)
Jiang Chu showed an innocent expression and stretched out his hands to show them his palms: "This soup is really not hot."
Fu Ciyan looked puzzled. He touched the bowl wall but was burned so much that he pulled back. He muttered, "It's time to make up for it. Why doesn't Te (she) feel anything?"
(That shouldn’t be the case. Why wouldn’t she feel anything?)
Fu Ciyan was too stupid to see it, but how could Tao Wan not know that Jiang Chu was taking revenge on them.
Now she was also burned, and her tongue hurt when she spoke. She didn't want to speak like Fu Ciyan, with all his gibberish.
She will come back to deal with Jiang Chu after her tongue heals.
