Chapter 708



Just looking at Zhang Xuemei's cowardly look, Jian Xiu continued before she could speak:

"If you ask me, straighten your back. I will now discuss with you your current position in your husband's family. Without mentioning anything else, if your husband's family didn't have your wife, would they be able to live like this today?"

"If it happened to someone else, the father-in-law and mother-in-law would chase after their daughter-in-law, but why is it the other way around for you? Why are you so afraid of her? Your concubine is the pillar of your Jian family. You have to be tough."

Jian Xiu spoke from the bottom of her heart.

When she said this, the look of disappointment on her face was clearly visible.

"But no matter what, I can't contradict her in person."

After a while, Zhang Xuemei muttered in a low voice.

"Why not? There is a kind of filial piety called foolish filial piety. It's great to not say that she is an elder. There is no reasonable person in this world. Why does she treat you like this?"

"If you didn't have a child before, you would be insecure, but now you have a child and can earn money. You don't need her charity to live, so why do you still have to look at her face?"

These words left Zhang Xuemei speechless.

At the same time, the two had already arrived at Jianjia Village.

But even though I have been talking all this time, Zhang Xuemei still looks timid!

Zhang Xuemei's home and Jian Xiu's home are next-door neighbors.

So when Jian Xiu's carriage was revealed, not only Zhang Xuemei's in-laws knew about it, but also Jian's father and mother.

Seeing their daughter jump out of the carriage, Jane's parents were extremely excited.

"I was just about to go to Zhangjia Village to see you, and you came here by yourself." Mother Jane came up to her quickly and said with a smile.

Although her tone was calm, Jian Xiuying could hear the excitement in her voice.

As a daughter, Jian Xiu was also very happy to see her healthy parents.

It can be considered that I have not treated my original body unfairly.

Protect the people she wants to protect.

"Mom, this place is not far away. If you want to see me, why don't you just go over there?"

"I just found out about this and was planning to go there after lunch."

As parents, they certainly know that their daughter is busy.

They also just received the news that she was back.

If they hadn't started harvesting grapes today, they really wouldn't have known.

It was not until the villagers of Jianjia Village went out to sell grapes that they realized that Jian Xiu had returned.

"Well, I'm back to see you guys. You don't have to run around so hard. Besides, you didn't use the carriage I gave you."

Jian Xiu was also helpless about this.

It turned out that she and Jian Fuyin both had maids, but they said they were not used to ordering servants around.

I refused it outright.

Helpless, Jian Xiu had to agree to their wish.

"Why give us a carriage? If we have something to do, we can just go around the villages on both sides. We won't drive if you give us a carriage."

Look, these words are still so familiar.

Jian Xiu had already said this countless times about the carriage, but it was meaningless, as they kept saying the same thing back to her.

"Mom, I came back this time not only to see you and dad. You are old, and we are worried that you don't have someone who cares about you. Besides, we are not in this village often, and you don't want to go to the capital with us."

"I'll give you two choices when I come back this time. One is that you come back to the capital with us and we'll take care of you together. The other is that I'll find you a maid who can take care of you and tell us if anything happens."

"Otherwise, not only will I be worried about you, but I will also be worried about my elder brother."

This time, what Jian Xiu said was true.

Although Mr. and Mrs. Jian are in good health, they are old after all. If something happens to them accidentally, who can take responsibility?

There was a maidservant taking care of them, and she could tell them anything if there was anything.

Her return to the village this time was not for long.

After the college is built and the wine is back to normal, she will return to Beijing.

This Quanyong County should only come back occasionally.

Besides, Chi Feixuan, Chi Feiyi and others also want to take part in the scientific examination.

After finishing this exam, I will definitely pursue a career in government.

So they couldn't stay in Zhangjia Village forever.

Hearing her daughter's tone, Jane's mother felt that this matter was a bit unnecessary.

But they probably also understand their daughter and know that it is difficult to change her decision.

"Okay, okay, but I have to tell you, you can't ask for too much. It will be inconvenient for us."

Mother Jane took a step back and said.

When Mr. Jian came out, he heard these words.

"Look at your parents. We are in good health. Why do we have to use servants' tricks? Isn't this a waste of money?"

"Dad, if that's what you said, then you have to go back to the capital with me?" Jian Xiu said bluntly.

After hearing what Jian Xiu said, Jian's father was speechless.

At that time, the two of them insisted on returning to Quanyong County, but their son and daughter were not very happy about it.

Because they are not confident in themselves.

Of course, they themselves knew that their sons and daughters did this out of filial piety.

But in Quanyong County, they really live more freely.

When people reach a certain age, they don't value gold and silver so much anymore.

I just hope that I can live a peaceful life, with my family together and in harmony.

Now that their son and daughter have held high positions, they can feel relieved.

No one in Quanyong County dares to bully them.

There are simple villagers here, and they live quite comfortably here.

Compared to being in the capital, Mr. and Mrs. Jian naturally chose to keep the maid.

"I'm afraid of you, I'm afraid of you. Isn't it enough to promise you?" Father Jian said unhappily.

Speaking of today's days, they are the most carefree.

If you want to have sons, daughters, grandchildren, you can go to the capital and play with them.

On weekdays, when there is nothing to do in the village, I go out to work, stretch my bones and muscles, etc., and life is so carefree.

"Then if there is no problem, I will arrange for two people to come over tomorrow."

Jian Xiu looked at the two of them and said with a smile.

It was only then that Mother Jian saw Zhang Xuemei who had returned with Jian Xiu.

Seeing Zhang Xuemei like this, Jane's mother felt a little distressed.

The two families were neighbors, and she saw how Zhang Xuemei lived in her husband's family.

"I don't think your mother-in-law came back today? Why did you come back first?" Mother Jian looked at Zhang Xuemei and asked first.

According to Old Li's personality, if Zhang Xuemei didn't wait for Old Li to come back, she would inevitably be scolded again.

This is really true. On ordinary days, if there is just a little thing, Mrs. Li will scold endlessly.
