◎There is more than one enemy◎
When Nie Yuande returned home in the evening, he was still thinking about the mung bean cake that Jiang Che brought to the Jiang family in the afternoon.
Why did he remember that a colleague in the factory had eaten exactly the same thing some time ago? But Jiang Che clearly said that it was made by his wife. Could it be that he had seen it wrong?
No, that's not right. He had carefully looked at the mung bean cake that Jiang Che brought today. The pattern on it was almost the same as the one brought by his colleague. He also remembered very clearly that someone had teased his colleague at the time, saying that she was stingy and didn't bring more for them to try. What did that colleague say?
Oh, she said this mung bean cake is precious, different from the usual ones, because it contains milk powder.
And when Jiang Che tasted the one he brought back today, it also had a milky flavor.
Thinking of this, he waved to his eldest daughter and said, "Shuangshuang, is this mung bean cake your uncle brought you today delicious?"
Shuangshuang was a little afraid of her father, but when she heard her father mention the mung bean cake, she relaxed a little and smiled, "It's delicious."
"Then tell me why this mung bean cake is better than the one your father bought you before?"
...
...
Nie Shuangshuang didn’t quite understand what her father meant. If it tastes good, it tastes good, right?
But the younger Nie Lanlan jumped out and said, "I know, I know, the green bean cake my uncle brought tastes a bit like White Rabbit milk candy."
Nie Lanlan had never drunk milk powder, so she didn't know what the milky flavor was, but she had eaten White Rabbit Milk Candy, and she felt that mung bean cake tasted a bit like White Rabbit Milk Candy. When she saw her father asking her sister, she couldn't help but answer.
Nie Yuande smiled: "My little girl is still smart."
Sister Jiang, who was boiling water in the kitchen, heard the whole conversation between the father and his two daughters. When she came out, she asked, "Why are you asking these questions to your children?"
"Since they like it, I'll ask them more about it so I can buy some for them."
Hearing this, Second Sister Jiang laughed: "Didn't you hear my younger brother say that this was made by his wife herself? Where can you buy the same? What do their children know? They just need something to eat. They will be happy no matter what you buy."
"Really? I don't think so. I think I can definitely find the same one for them." Nie Yuande thought, if he was not mistaken, then either Jiang Che lied and bought the mung bean cake outside, not made by his wife. Or he was not lying and the mung bean cake was indeed made by his wife, but he also took it outside to sell.
Section 48
No matter which possibility it was, this was a great opportunity for him to fight back. He still remembered the warning given to him by Jiang Che and his brother last time. This was a rare opportunity to catch him by the tail, and it would be too easy for him if he didn't do it quickly.
Jiang Erjie just thought that what her husband said was strange, but she didn't think much about it. It was rare for a man to be a little softer in his attitude towards his daughter, and she didn't want to ruin it.
Jiang Che and Wei Xuan were unaware of the conspiracy behind the scenes, and their lives went on peacefully as usual. When Yuanyuan was able to stand and walk a few steps on her own, she turned one year old.
On the day of the winter solstice, Wei Xuan and Jiang Che got up early and started working.
It is not a popular celebration nowadays, but a child’s first birthday is a big day, and the family of three all wore new clothes today.
Third Brother Wei lived nearby and was the first to arrive. As soon as he arrived, Jiang Che grabbed him and asked him to take a photo of his family of three.
"Yuanyuan looks so beautiful today." Brother Wei San took pictures and said nice things to make Yuanyuan laugh.
It was cold, and Yuanyuan was wrapped up like a ball by Wei Xuan when she woke up in the morning. Her arms and legs were short to begin with, and now it was even more difficult for her to move. She was angry with Wei Xuan and wanted Wei Xuan to take off her clothes.
But as soon as she saw her uncle pointing the camera at her, she immediately put on a smile.
Brother Wei couldn't help but complain to his little brother-in-law: "Your child is so smart. He even knows to look at the camera and smile when taking pictures."
"That's because my daughter is smart." Jiang Che didn't like others talking about his daughter like that, so he retorted.
Brother Wei also nodded: "You are smart, okay? Here, how about the photos I took?"
Wei Xuan, who knew the inside story:......
Why did Yuanyuan know to smile when taking photos? The story started a few days ago.
Ever since Jiang Che bought a camera, he has been keen on taking pictures of his daughter. At first, he would just pose for her or let Wei Xuan hold his daughter and take pictures.
Later, I don’t know how it developed into candid photography.
Whenever and wherever he sees his daughter's expressions or cute sleeping postures, Jiang Che will take pictures with his camera.
Some time ago, my daughter was learning to walk. It is inevitable to fall when learning to walk. Most of the time, Yuanyuan would not cry when she fell because she is short and it would not hurt much when she fell. In addition, when adults interrupted her, she would forget about crying.
But two days ago in the afternoon, Wei Xuan was cooking in the kitchen and gave the child to Jiang Che. Who knew he was so unreliable, and in the blink of an eye he took Yuanyuan, who had just learned to walk, to the yard. The yard was uneven, and as expected, Yuanyuan fell down. This time, it was probably because she hit the stone and it hurt a little. Yuanyuan was very upset, and no matter how she was comforted, it didn't work.
In the end, it was Wei Xuan who came over and coaxed her into submission.
Jiang Che had a camera hanging around his neck at the time, and somehow he managed to capture Yuanyuan crying with tears and snot.
After the photo was developed, he showed it to her on purpose. He didn't expect that a child of this age would know what was beautiful and what was ugly. When he saw the photo, he was very angry. He snatched it and poked himself in the photo and talked to Jiang Che fiercely for a long time.
I don’t know what Jiang Che said to her, but since then she knew that she should smile when taking pictures.
After taking the photos, the Jiang family members also arrived one after another, including Ge Huai and Zhong Yulan.
Anyone who comes is a guest. No matter who comes, Wei Xuan and Jiang Che will treat them well.
But Ge Huai hated Jiang Che's pretentious look the most and he had to make things difficult for him.
His eyes turned and he thought of something. He smiled and said to Jiang Che, "Cousin, I heard from Yulan that you and her brother-in-law knew each other before, right?"
Sure enough, Jiang Che raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, and after a moment he smiled and said, "Yes, it was only when I met my cousins on the day of your wedding that I realized it was such a coincidence."
Seeing that Jiang Che was still calm and smiling even after being caught by him, Ge Huai was a little angry for a moment. Just when he was about to say a few more words, Zhong Yulan pulled on the corner of his clothes.
Glancing at Zhong Yulan, Ge Huai knew that now was not the right time to expose this matter, so he swallowed his resentment and said with a half-smile: "Yes, it's such a coincidence."
The other members of the Jiang family had just learned about this matter and immediately started to inquire about it from Jiang Che.
Aunt Jiang also asked her daughter-in-law: "Why didn't you tell me about this?"
Zhong Yulan laughed dryly and said, "Maybe I just didn't think of it for the moment."
In her heart, she cursed Ge Huai a thousand times. She asked Ge Huai why he had asked her so much about Jiang Che's business with his brother-in-law. It turned out that the two of them were not getting along! He was planning to use this to attack Jiang Che.
If she had known this would happen, she would not have said so much to him.
She was forced into a corner and told Ge Huai about this without hiding anything. She thought that Ge Huai and Jiang Che were relatives, so it was okay for him to know about this.
But looking at Ge Huai's attitude today, and recalling what Ge Huai had told her before, that she should go to her brother-in-law's place more often when she had nothing to do, and that she must tell him if Jiang Che went there again, what else did she not understand? Ge Huai was trying to find Jiang Che's weakness, and might even report him.
Not to mention that she still has some ulterior motives towards Jiang Che, if Jiang Che is reported, her brother-in-law will definitely be implicated.
Although she didn't really care whether anything would happen to her elder sister and brother-in-law, at least now she still wanted to cheat some money from her sister, and didn't want to see her brother-in-law get into trouble so soon.
She herself doesn't have a job, and Ge Huai doesn't have a job now either. To put it nicely, they are Beijing people, but in fact, their life is not as good as the one she lives with her sister.
Not only did she not eat meat often enough in a month, she also had to do endless housework every day. This was not the life she wanted.
After lunch, taking a family photo and seeing the guests off, Wei Xuan asked Jiang Che, "What's wrong with you? I feel like you seem a little absent-minded today. Did Zhong Yulan do something to annoy you again?"
Jiang Che shook his head, then looked at his wife: "Did Ge Huai mention Angkor to me today?"
"Why did he mention Brother Wu to you?" Wei Xuan suddenly realized, "Could it be that Zhong Yulan told him about the business between Brother Wu and you?"
Jiang Che nodded: "I think it's possible." Based on his understanding of Ge Huai, his tone today was a bit sarcastic. If he just knew that he knew Wu Yun, he wouldn't have specifically come to him to mention this matter.
"Zhong Yulan wouldn't be so stupid!" Wei Xuan actually thought about whether she would disclose her family's business affairs to others, but when she thought about the fact that Wu Yun would be implicated in this matter, she shouldn't tell anyone about it even for the sake of her sister and brother-in-law.
Unexpectedly, she actually said that. Wei Xuan looked at Jiang Che and asked, "What should we do now?"
Jiang Che said, "What else can I do? Since it's already known, I'll just stop. There's only a thief who steals for a thousand days, but there's no such thing as a thief who guards against thieves for a thousand days. It's just that Ge Huai hasn't caught the real evidence yet, otherwise he wouldn't be soft on me."
Wei Xuan actually never understood why Ge Huai hated Jiang Che so much.
"Why else? He's narrow-minded! Although he and I are about the same age, we've never played together since we were little. He thinks he's a good student and disdains to deal with a bad student like me. I don't like to be with hypocritical people like him. But who told me that he said something bad about me once and I found out, so I definitely couldn't let him go, so I beat him up. Don't you think it's normal for little boys to fight? Who hasn't fought when they were young? After the fight, don't they still call each other brothers? But he's different. He still remembers it until now. Don't you think he's narrow-minded?"
Wei Xuan:.......
"Okay, then do you think you should talk to Angkor Wu about this?"
After all, Zhong Yulan is still his sister-in-law.
Jiang Che thought for a moment and said, "I'll remind him, but I think Ge Huai's target is me. If I don't go, Angkor Wu shouldn't be in any danger."
That's right, Wei Xuan nodded: "It's good that you know it."
Jiang Che knew this very well, but he didn't know that Ge Huai was not the only enemy he had.
