Chapter 19: Where Did Lu Jianshen Go?

Anyway, the two of them had already decided, and she was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law, so she directly took Xiangxiang to live in her own home, which was quite good.

Tian Xiu’e’s house was a newly built tiled house, spacious and airy. She had long wanted Lu Jianshen to get married, but unfortunately, that little rascal wouldn’t agree.

Therefore, the new house had already been built, and Xiangxiang would have a place to live if she came.

Jiang Xiangxiang’s eyes lit up. She really didn’t want to stay in this terrible place, and she didn’t want to get entangled with this pair of biased and vicious Mom and daughter. However, the original owner’s father hadn’t returned yet. If she left at this time, it would be somewhat unreasonable. Furthermore, it was somewhat inappropriate to move into the Lu family’s home before getting married.

Jiang Rourou became anxious and couldn’t help pinching Ye Meiping: “Mom, say something! We still have other people in our family. What will people say if my sister goes to live in someone else’s house?”

Ye Meiping: “You dare!”

Jiang Xiangxiang: “But you’re not good to me, you only bully me, and you even wanted to freeze me to death…”

Ye Meiping: “I was wrong, I won’t hit you again, but I don’t agree with your marriage to the Lu family. If you go there now, it’s eloping. If you come back, I’ll drown you in a pig cage!”

These words were spoken through gritted teeth, as if she wished to tear her apart and swallow her alive.

If she had known that Jiang Xiangxiang was this kind of person, she should have directly killed her, drowned her early, and then had another child, and she wouldn’t have needed to get sterilized.

Now, it’s all for nothing. She gave birth to such a debt collector, lacking everything, and in the end, it only caused her trouble.

Jiang Xiangxiang was quite impressed with her. Even with so many people watching, Ye Meiping could still make her apology sound like a threat. She was truly unintelligent, but also incredibly brave.

If anything happened to her, she wouldn’t have to think twice; it would immediately be pinned on Ye Meiping’s head.

Jiang Xiangxiang was very happy. The worse Ye Meiping’s attitude, the easier it would be for her to deal with her later, and she wouldn’t have to worry about being blamed.

Jiang Rourou hurriedly tried to smooth things over: “Sister, marriage is such a big deal, you should listen to the family. How can you just quietly agree to this? It’s not proper.”

Jiang Xiangxiang: “The Qing Dynasty is gone, Sister, are you crazy? This is a new society. Comrade Lu and I are in love, why can’t we be together?”

Jiang Rourou: “Anyway…”

Jiang Xiangxiang: “Stop. If you have nothing to say, don’t waste your breath. This matter is settled. Comrade Lu has already asked Chunhua Auntie, and he will come to propose marriage tomorrow. Everything will follow the rules, no need to say more.”

Jiang Rourou: “So fast!”

How is that possible?

Isn’t Lu Jianshen a soldier? Shouldn’t he have to file a report? Since he has to file a report, it definitely won’t be that fast, meaning there’s still a chance to stop it. She didn’t want to see Jiang Xiangxiang marry into the Lu family.

The Lu family is the best family in the village, and Lu Jianshen himself is promising. Someone like him should be with someone like her. Even if it’s not her, it shouldn’t be Jiang Xiangxiang.

Tian Xiu’e nodded: “That’s right, my Jianshen has already sent a telegram. Otherwise, why do you think he hasn’t come? Ye Meiping, Jiang Daya, the person our family wants to marry is Xiangxiang herself. Only her opinion matters. The opinions of the rest of you are useless. If you’re willing, we’ll be relatives in the future. If not, then forget it.”

She didn’t want to have anything to do with them. Of course, it still depends on Xiangxiang’s attitude. If Jiang Xiangxiang is soft-hearted and can’t bear to leave Ye Meiping, then they’ll remain distant relatives.

Anyway, she’ll be watching over her, as long as Xiangxiang doesn’t suffer any losses, that’s fine. They can deal with the rest later.

The more Ye Meiping listened, the angrier she became, feeling like her head was going to explode: “Impossible, absolutely impossible. Tian Xiu’e, get out of here. I won’t agree to this marriage.”

Tian Xiu’e: “You’re nothing! Shut your mouth! This is a match made in heaven, a destined fate, a red thread tied by the matchmaker himself. You have no say in this. Get lost!”

After saying that, she didn’t forget to spit on her, showing her disgust.

Jiang Rourou felt like her blood was freezing, and her mood was also very bad. After thinking it over, she looked at Wang Fugui: “Village Chief, uncles and aunts, I’m sorry for making you laugh today. I promise this won’t happen again. Our family is not convenient right now, can you please go back? I’ll go and apologize to you and my mom in person later.”

These words were quite well-spoken, but everyone was enjoying the gossip, and no one wanted to leave at this moment. What if they missed some explosive news?

Ye Meiping stubbornly spoke: “Go, go, go. What does my family’s business have to do with you? What’s there to see? Don’t you have any gossip to watch at home? Get lost!”

Everyone: “…”

The fact that she didn’t get beaten up on her way out was quite surprising.

This was because Jiang Chengshan was a good person, and over the years, no one had bothered to argue with her. Otherwise, Ye Meiping would have been unable to stay in this village long ago.

Village Chief Wang Fugui felt a terrible headache and could only say: “Everyone, disperse. Let’s talk about anything tomorrow…”

Ye Meiping: “You go too. I’ve already apologized. Village Chief, if you call the police, I’ll say you ordered it. Anyway, your family has relatives with Old Lady Huang, and she’s your great-aunt. I don’t believe you won’t care about her!”

For so many years, Old Lady Huang has been able to oversee things in the village, and many people have given her face because of Wang Fugui. She had already found this out.

Wang Fugui glared at her: “You’re making false accusations!”

Ye Meiping: “Are you leaving or not? I don’t care if you’re making false accusations or not. Just see if the police investigate you. Then everyone will suffer the consequences.”

Wang Fugui’s temper flared up. He wanted to lash out, but then he thought of something and calmed down. He looked at Jiang Xiangxiang and instructed: “Jiang Erya, let’s forget about this for now. If she makes trouble again, tell Uncle, and Uncle will help you.”

Jiang Xiangxiang nodded: “Okay, Fugui Uncle, take care. If anything happens, I’ll bother you. Don’t mind me then.”

Wang Fugui nodded, sighed, and walked out.

There’s no normal person in the Jiang family. Only Jiang Xiangxiang is better, and Chengshan is also sensible. But the other two are no good. I don’t know how Jiang Xiangxiang survived all these years. It’s really not easy. Now that she’s marrying into the Lu family, her life should be a little better.

Jiang Xiangxiang watched him leave, but she wasn’t too disappointed. She never intended to call the police. If she really wanted to call the police, she would have done so when Old Lady Huang was still here.

Now, it’s just paving the way.
