Chapter 7

Jiang Yan was clearly smiling, but Jiang Mo felt that she was very serious and was not joking.

She really hated the Jiang family and really wanted to draw a clear line between herself and the Jiang family.

“You’ve really changed, a lot.” Jiang Mo looked at Jiang Yan inquiringly, “You never dared to speak loudly to me before, but now you not only bully me and disobey mom, but you even go against dad.”

Jiang Yan was a little panicked, afraid that someone would discover her identity as a time traveler, but she quickly calmed down and her mind was working quickly, “I have to be obedient when I live under someone else’s roof, otherwise I would have been married to an old man long ago.”

“It’s better to get rid of a disobedient tool as soon as possible.”

“What do you think?”

Jiang Yan stared at Jiang Mo. Jiang Mo inexplicably felt a sense of danger and swallowed uncomfortably. He subconsciously wanted to take a step back but felt it was too embarrassing.

She looked at Jiang Yan with a complicated expression, and finally uttered only one sentence.

“You’re so scary.”

Jiang Yan shrugged her shoulders and lowered her head to continue sorting her clothes. In fact, there was nothing to sort.

Everyone was poor in that era, and the original owner’s status in the family was not high. He only had one or two sets of clothes, which could all be put in a large cloth bag.

“It’s time to eat.”

When things were almost packed, Jiang Yuan’s voice came from outside the house.

The voice was very close, as if it was just behind the door. Jiang Yan didn’t know whether Jiang Yuan had heard her conversation with Jiang Mo.

But she no longer cared.

After joining the army, she and the Jiang family were separated by tens of thousands of miles, and they might never meet again in this life. It would be best if Jiang Yuan could listen to her, otherwise there would be a lot of trouble.

At the dinner table, Ye Chunlan kept picking up food for Jiang Yan, acting like a loving mother, which made Jiang Yan very uncomfortable.

Jiang Yuan saw all the actions and reactions of the two people, but said nothing. He just focused on eating, as if the people around him didn’t exist.

Jiang Mo looked at the two of them, wanting to say something but stopping herself. She wanted to remind her mother that it was meaningless for her to do this now. However, she glanced at her father opposite her and said nothing.

At this moment, Jiang Mo experienced for the first time what it meant to be mentally exhausted.

“Yan Yan, come and eat this. Mom bought this specially for you today.”

“This is good. This is some dry goods from the seaside. Dad spent a lot of money to get just this little bit.”

“Eat quickly.”

…

Ye Chunlan kept picking up dishes for Jiang Yan, and Jiang Yan accepted them one by one. The original owner had never eaten these delicious things in all these years.

Even if there was meat on the table, she only dared to eat vegetarian food.

If there were guests at home, she couldn’t even sit at the table and could only wait until everyone had finished eating before eating the cold leftovers.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan felt more aggrieved and unhappy. The original owner had suffered so much and finally died of illness, but she had no complaints against the Jiang family.

Although she knew that her life was hard, when she thought about the Jiang family allowing her to study, she felt that she still owed the Jiang family in the end.

This is the aftereffect of studying, kind people are always bullied.

This emotion also affected Jiang Yan, so she wanted to make a break for it.

The original owner’s life offset the Jiang family’s grace of adoption, and she married Lu Yunsheng to repay the original owner for the Jiang family’s grace of supporting her studies.

She also repaid the original owner’s kindness of using her body. Whether her life in the future is good or bad is her own business.

…

Zhanchuan Military Region, Marine Corps.

“Son, I’ve found someone for you. Her name is Jiang Yan. She’s very pretty. I’m sure you’ll like her.”

Lu Yunsheng, who was wearing a military uniform and had his back straight, frowned and said, “Mom, you know my situation. You are harming the girl.”

“How did she get hurt? Mom has already inquired about it. Yanyan is the adopted daughter of the Jiang family. Her situation in the Jiang family is not good.”

“Besides, after she gets married, Dad, Mom, and your brothers and sisters-in-law will definitely treat her well. You have to be nice to them too, understand?”

“I met Yanyan today. She is well-behaved and polite. I will definitely live a good life with you in the future.”

Lu Yunsheng interrupted his mother, his voice habitually serious and cold.

“Resign now. I won’t get married, so as not to bring harm to others.”

When Lin Meixiang heard Lu Yunsheng say this, she felt so sad!

“Son, even though we can’t have children, we still have to get married. It would be so pitiful to be alone when you are old!”

“Mom, I’m in the army. Even if I get old, there’s a retirement home. I won’t be alone, and I won’t be pitiful.”

“I don’t care. You have to get married. Yanyan will take the 7am train tomorrow. Remember to pick her up in two days. Don’t bully her. She is the daughter-in-law that your father and I approve of.”

“That’s it. Hang up.”

Lin Meixiang ended the call with a click. A middle-aged man with an elegant yet sharp temperament sitting on the sofa next to her looked over.

“Is this okay? You force your child to get married even though he doesn’t want to.”

Lin Meixiang rolled her eyes at her husband and walked over to sit next to him. “What do you know? Your son doesn’t want to get married. He’s just afraid of delaying the girl. If he really didn’t want to get married, I wouldn’t have arranged it a long time ago.”

“Anyway, I am very satisfied with Jiang Yan, and Wanxin is also satisfied with her. Let Yunsheng bring her back after the New Year. You will definitely like her. Such a good girl is so rare, and I don’t want my son to miss such a girl.”

Lu Yuanshan couldn’t convince his wife, so he could only wave his hands helplessly and said, “Whatever you want.”

After his mother forcefully ended the call, Lu Yunsheng sighed.

What is going on?

…

Bang bang bang!

Jiang Yan was sleeping soundly when there was a knock on the door and Jiang Mo’s voice came from outside the door.

“Jiang Yan, hurry up and get up. Your train is at 7 o’clock today. Don’t miss it. The ticket is expensive. You are so lazy.”

Hearing that the train was at 7 o’clock, Jiang Yan sat up from the bed. After sitting on the bed for a while, she slowly regained her senses and looked outside the door and replied.

“knew.”

I glanced out the window and saw that the sky was still pitch black, dotted with only a few stars.

It’s too early!

Sighing, Jiang Yan quickly got up from the bed, glanced at the only snakeskin bag she had packed, opened the door and walked out.

After quickly washing up, eating a bowl of porridge, a steamed corn bread and a steamed bun, Jiang Yuan urged him to rush to the train station.

Ye Chunlan didn’t come to work, but Jiang Mo took the initiative to follow her.

On the platform.

Jiang Mo pulled Jiang Yan and pleaded humbly for the first time, “Jiang Yan, the Jiang family has raised you for so many years. If, can you show mercy in the future?”

Jiang Yan’s performance in the past two days made Jiang Mo panic. She was too smart and too good at forbearing. If she married Lu Yunsheng and had the support of the Lu family, she would definitely be more powerful.

If she really wants to deal with the Lu family, can her father be a match?

Jiang Mo felt that the answer was no. Just because his father had not seen through Jiang Yan’s true face for so many years, the chances of losing were very high.

Jiang Yan smiled and said, “You surprised me a little. You really didn’t get anxious until the knife fell on your head. If it were in the past, you would definitely take away all my money.”

“I apologize to you for what happened in the past, but I think you are also responsible. If you hadn’t pretended to be so weak and made me feel no threat at all, I wouldn’t have been so confident in bullying you.”

Jiang Mo thought about it all night and always felt that this was not only his problem, but Jiang Yan was also responsible.

Who made her pretend to be so weak? She deserves to be bullied.

Jiang Yan didn’t want to care about who was right or wrong. She looked at Jiang Mo and warned him, “I’ve said that our grudges are written off and we’ll be strangers from now on. If you take the initiative to cause trouble again, don’t blame me for being merciless.”

“You…are cruel enough.”

After saying these harsh words, Jiang Mo looked at Jiang Yuan who was walking towards him with the train ticket in his hand, and Jiang Yan suddenly understood something.

She whispered, “To both of us, your father is a time bomb. He can use me, and he can use you, too. If you don’t want to be like me, you’d better get some evidence against him. If something happens to you in the future, you can report him.”

“You are so vicious.”

Jiang Mo opened his mouth wide and looked at Jiang Yan in shock. She was blatantly instigating him to go against his parents.

“Really? I don’t think so.” Jiang Yan looked calm and murmured, “I’m just taking precautions in advance. As long as you behave yourself, then what I said is bullshit.”
