Chapter 02: I'm Not Stupid Anymore



Zhang Lanlan was suddenly speechless and was grabbed by Qin Man by the braid.

"I... I didn't, Jiang Cong, don't listen to her. What does a fool like her know? I really just got here! I saw that she was soaking wet, so it's not hard to think that she fell into the water!"

Zhang Lanlan looked at Jiang Cong with an innocent face, hoping that he could believe what she said. She, a normal person, couldn't be worse than a fool in his heart!

"You are lying. Grandma said that no children will play with liars!"

Suddenly, Jiang Yu's babyish voice rang out. She pointed at Zhang Lanlan with her little finger and pouted her little mouth. She was so cute that she touched Qin Man's heart!

"What does a kid know? Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking!" Zhang Lanlan glared at Xiaoyu, who immediately hid behind her mother's butt and made faces at her.

"How come a child doesn't understand? Only children would not lie. Try to glare at me again?"

Qin Man narrowed her eyes. Her leadership demeanor was so intimidating that Zhang Lanlan subconsciously took a step back.

Damn this woman, how come she is so powerful all of a sudden? He was just a little fool who let her tease him and couldn't even speak clearly, how come he suddenly became smart?

Zhang Lanlan's question is also Jiang Cong's question, but the priority now is to find out why the child's mother fell into the water, whether it was human error or accidental.

"Xiao Li, tell me what you saw!"

Jiang Li's personality is like his father's. He doesn't talk much and is quite aloof despite his young age.

"My sister and I went back to get some food to play house with mom. When we came back, we saw her and she ran away!"

Jiang Li pointed at Zhang Lanlan as he spoke. He spoke more clearly than his sister. At the age of three, he could already organize his words clearly.

Jiang Cong knew that his son would not lie. Children are pure and genuine and would not deceive anyone.

"What else do you want to refute?" Jiang Cong looked at Zhang Lanlan coldly.

Although Xiaozhu is silly, she has gone through untold hardships to give birth to a pair of smart and lovely children for him, and he should also fulfill his responsibilities as a husband.

It was he who forced Xiao Zhu in the first place. He was wrong. He should make amends, take responsibility, and protect the three of them, mother and son.

"I didn't, and you didn't see me push her. How can you say that I pushed her? Besides, Brother Jiang Cong, don't you understand my feelings for you? You are a college student with a bright future. She is a fool and will only be a burden to you. How long have you been laughed at by the villagers? Have you forgotten?"

Zhang Lanlan became anxious and started to speak without thinking. She stopped pretending and directly revealed her disgust for Qin Man.

"She is silly, but she has a clean mind, unlike some people who are born with a dirty heart!"

Jiang Cong could probably guess that this matter was related to Zhang Lanlan, but it was not easy to delve into it further without seeing it with his own eyes.

Qin Man was very satisfied with Jiang Cong's reaction and he knew how to protect herself. It was not difficult to see that this man had a decent character. The fact that he did not despise her for being a fool and still married her home was enough to prove it.

It was later confirmed that Jiang Cong was drugged, but the person behind the drug was never found. He and Qin Manmu were done with it, so he did not pursue the matter further.

Qin Man pulled her hand out of Jiang Cong's and walked up to Zhang Lanlan. She was about 1.6 meters tall, half a head taller than Zhang Lanlan, and her aura was much more superior to her.

"Thanks to you for pushing me into the reservoir, I was shocked. I'm not stupid anymore. You'd better stay away from me next time. I have a bad temper and I'm afraid I won't be able to help but hit you. Also, my name is Qin Man, not Xiao Zhu? We are not that familiar with each other!"

Qin Man raised her eyebrows and felt refreshed when she looked at Zhang Lanlan's colorful face.

"Come on, kids, let's go home!" Qin Man turned around, holding a little baby in each hand, and headed towards home.

Jiang Cong was as shocked as Zhang Lanlan, but he didn't show it on his face. Judging from Qin Man's demeanor and the tone of her defense just now, it seemed that she was really fine.

This time, falling into the water turned out to be a blessing in disguise and made her better!

Qin Man walked for a while and found that Jiang Cong had not caught up with her, so she went back to call him.

"Why are you still standing there? Follow me!"

Jiang Cong heard the voice and followed. When he passed by Zhang Lanlan, he said:

"For the sake of the village chief, I don't want this to happen again!"

Yes, Zhang Lanlan is the daughter of the village chief, so she is particularly domineering on weekdays.

She always felt that only she was worthy of Jiang Cong, and no one else was.

Looking at the backs of the family of four, Zhang Lanlan was so angry that she bit her teeth.

Damn it, I just wanted to let this idiot die, but I didn't expect that she would turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

Jiang Congge graduated from a normal university and was assigned to be a teacher in a middle school in the city. Now it is summer vacation and he will start working in September.

College students nowadays are very rich. Brother Jiang Cong teaches at a middle school in the city, and his monthly salary is at least fifty or sixty. In the mid-1980s, the average salary of an ordinary person was only around thirty or forty. His salary was a high salary and a stable job. Not only did he receive a subsidy every year, but he would also receive a salary after retirement. Following him, one would never have to worry about food and drink.

Four years ago, the village held a celebration party for Jiang Cong to celebrate the graduation of a college student. She put drugs in Jiang Cong's wine, hoping to have an affair with him. However, she didn't expect that she would be abandoned after the event. Qin Man, that big fool who appeared out of nowhere, took away her future rich life.

The big fool was very lucky. She got pregnant with twins at first sight, and Jiang Cong married her out of responsibility.

She had waited for so long, watching all the girls in the village get married, but she was still fantasizing about being with Jiang Cong at the age of 22. She was unwilling to give up! If she missed Jiang Cong, where else could she find such an excellent man?

Qin Man and Jiang Cong brought the children back home. The Jiang family had three children in total: the eldest brother Jiang Cheng, the second child Jiang Cong, and the youngest sister Jiang Lian.

Jiang Cheng has married and has a daughter who is now seven years old. His youngest sister, Jiang Lian, failed the college entrance exam this year and works in a guesthouse in the town, earning twenty-five yuan a month.

The Jiang family is very poor and is supported by Jiang's father and eldest brother Jiang Cheng. The year before last, the land was distributed to each household and the family now has their own farmland. Before, they lived on work points and grain coupons, and as long as they did a good job in the production team, they would not have to worry about food and clothing. Now they farm their own land, and the grain output determines whether they will have food and clothing for the whole year. Except for the spring sowing and autumn harvesting time, Jiang's father and eldest brother Jiang Cheng would find odd jobs outside to supplement the family income.

Jiang Cong worked part-time to pay for his studies during his four years in college. A few years after the college entrance examination was resumed, he was admitted to university. Thanks to the national policy, he did not have to pay tuition and received a scholarship. He relied on the scholarship and the money he earned from odd jobs as living expenses and did not cause much trouble to his family.
