It has been more than half a year since I came back. I have been hiding myself in the primary school, isolating myself from the world, so that I can calm down and reflect.
I have thought about a lot during this period of time. I have to let go and face it. My brother and sister-in-law love me. They are all doing this for my own good and will never be angry with me.
Now, she could finally fully understand what her second sister-in-law said to her.
Don't look at what a person says to you, look at what a person does for you!
"Brother and sister-in-law, welcome home!"
She smiled a little embarrassedly and put her hands behind her back.
"How are you? Are you feeling good after these six months at home?" Qin Man was worried that she had not yet completely recovered.
"It's good. Every day is happy and fulfilling. When I'm with those kids, there's always laughter and joy, and it's full of childlike innocence!" Jiang Lian laughed from the bottom of her heart.
"That's good, just be happy. I brought you this year's new windbreaker. Let's go home and try it on!"
Qin Man took the initiative to step forward and hold her arm, and the two aunt and sister-in-law tacitly did not mention those things again.
"Aunt~"
Seeing that their mother and aunt had finished talking, the two children began to call Jiang Lian.
"Hey, babies, auntie misses you so much, come here quickly, auntie will go home and bury sweet potatoes for you to eat!"
Jiang Lian took the initiative to hold the hands of the two children.
When they were in the countryside, the twins’ favorite food was roasted sweet potatoes. Every time Jiang Lian finished cooking, she would throw two sweet potatoes into the kitchen, and after a while they would be able to eat the hot and fragrant sweet potatoes.
The sweet potatoes sold outside are never as sweet as those grown at home.
Jiang Cong was carrying a lot of luggage, and little Jiang Li was holding his own and his sister's backpacks. Only Qin Man and Jiang Lian were walking in front, arm in arm, talking and laughing, while Xiao Yu was jumping around while holding her aunt's hand.
Jiang Cong smiled helplessly, and he and his two sons, one big and one small, followed closely behind.
The women in their Jiang family are all meant to be pampered.
"After the Chinese New Year, you can come back to the city with us. I have asked my eldest brother and his wife to partner with me to open a Malatang branch. After you get there, you can help run the store with your eldest sister-in-law. How do you think?"
"But I don't know how to do anything. I'm doing pretty well at my job in an elementary school now!"
Jiang Lian was afraid that if she went, she would cause trouble for her second sister-in-law.
"You just don't have confidence. I don't know you yet. Let me tell you, even Dad is willing to move out with us next year. You can't stay in your hometown alone!
It’s better for our family to be together so that we can meet whenever we want. We don’t have to be separated and unable to even have enough people for a meal!”
"But I'm afraid that if I go, I'll cause you trouble again and you'll have to take care of me!"
Jiang Lian was really ashamed of her ignorance and causing her family to worry about her.
Qin Man knew that this girl still felt guilty.
"No one can make mistakes, so let the past go. You can't stay in the country forever. I hope you can come out and help me. Really, my sister-in-law is a bit indecisive and doesn't know how to make up her mind. You can help her if you go. You are smart and clever. I'm begging you as my second sister-in-law. Come out!"
Qin Man looked at her expectantly. How could Jiang Lian bear such a look? She nodded and agreed on the spot.
Qin Man then smiled happily.
"Let's go shopping and eat delicious food together like we used to. I hope you can become the conceited and food-loving little foodie you used to be, okay?"
The lively and cheerful Jiang Lian from before is still more adorable.
Jiang Lian nodded and laughed too.
Qin Man was very gossipy and started to inquire about her and Cheng Song.
"Girl, have you contacted Cheng Song since you came back?"
Speaking of Cheng Song, Jiang Lian's heart skipped a beat, then she nodded:
"I wrote to her a few times. He said his family had arranged a blind date for him. The girl was also from the city and was a good match for him. He said the girl was also a college student and a civil servant. They were already dating and maybe she would be able to attend his wedding soon!"
Cheng Song wrote two letters to her, asking about her recent situation and also telling her about his own situation.
The last letter was about his blind date. Jiang Lian did not reply to him because he was afraid that his girlfriend would know and cause misunderstandings!
Qin Man didn't expect that she hadn't seen Cheng Song for only half a year, but the boy had already started talking about marriage.
He has such deep feelings for Jiang Lian, is he letting it go now?
Jiang Lian had a smile on her face, but it seemed like she was forcing herself to smile.
Maybe she was just being shameless. After hearing what he said, she actually felt a little disappointed.
"Do you regret it?"
Qin Man suddenly asked this question.
Jiang Lian's heart skipped a beat when she was asked the same question again. She bit her lower lip tightly and her eyes turned red.
"I... don't deserve his love, his efforts, and I don't have the face to accept him anymore. It's good now. He got married and had children, and I will also get married and have children in the future. We have nothing to do with each other!"
Well, since she said so, Qin Man did not ask any more questions. However, she felt sorry for them. They could have been a very happy and sweet couple, but the result was unpredictable!
"Let's not talk about these unhappy things, second sister-in-law. Dad misses Xiaoyu and Xiaoli very much. Let's go back quickly and don't let him wait anxiously!"
Jiang Lian quickly changed the subject, but Qin Man didn't plan to ask any more questions.
As soon as he returned home, the old man saw his grandchildren came back. He was so happy that he hugged the two children and smiled from ear to ear.
"Grandpa, my brother and I have learned a lot of words in school. We can also do addition and subtraction within 100!"
Baby Xiaoyu sat on Grandpa's lap and began to show her cute nature. ..
"Really? Xiaoyu is awesome. How about Grandpa give you a test?"
"good!"
When there are many children in the house, it is so lively and everyone celebrates the New Year happily.
Everything for the wedding banquet has been prepared almost completely, and we are just waiting to invite the villagers to dinner on the 29th.
Xiaoyi was not used to it at first and always felt like he had no say at home. Fortunately, Yuanyuan was more attentive and noticed that Xiaoyi was not feeling well, so she often took him out to play and talked to him.
On the 29th, the sound of firecrackers continued from the Jiang family's house. In order to celebrate the wedding of the Jiang family's eldest son, everyone in the village who could help came to help move stools, move tables, and choose vegetables.
Now that this person has become successful, the relationship between neighbors has improved. Everyone is rushing to move in. Since Qin Man and Jiang Cong came back, people often invite them back for dinner. This is reality!
Everyone thought that if they had a good relationship with the Jiang family, they could ask for help if they had any problems in the future!
