State-owned hotel.
Braised pork belly, pan-fried crucian carp, mapo tofu, egg custard, and a bowl of fragrant chicken and mushroom soup.
Jiang Ning ordered a table full of dishes.
Especially the bowl of egg custard, she picked it up and placed it specifically in front of Gu Yunshu.
Gu Yunshu has made egg custard so many times at Jiang's house, but she has never had a bite.
Jiang Ning wanted to compensate them well today.
But Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu were completely frightened by the sight in front of them.
With so many dishes and the best state-owned restaurant in the city, how much does it cost?
The couple watched with wide eyes, not even daring to take their chopsticks.
"Dad, Mom, what are you doing standing still? Hurry up and eat with your chopsticks."
Seeing that they didn't move, Jiang Ning simply put the chopsticks into their hands and returned the bowls to them. Each of them had a piece of braised pork belly.
Gu Yunshu's whole body was tense and she said uneasily.
"Ning'er, have you secretly hidden your salary? You must not spend this salary. If you don't give it to grandma, she will beat you!"
She thought of before...
Jiang Ning's rubber-soled shoes were torn, so she spent two yuan to buy a new pair. Because the salary given to Jiang Li was two yuan less.
That night, Mrs. Jiang almost lifted the roof of her home and beat Jiang Ning with a feather duster.
The red, swollen and scars on Jiang Ning's body were painful and painful for half a month before they managed to get better.
Gu Yunshu still had lingering fears when thinking about this matter.
Jiang Ning was extremely calm about this, and she didn't even move her eyelids.
He just spoke calmly.
"Mom, don't worry, it's not my salary. Even if it's really my salary, it's my hard-earned money. I can spend it however I want. What does it have to do with them? If grandma beats me, does it matter? Won’t I resist?”
Speaking of resistance…
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu couldn't help but look at each other.
They all thought of the way Jiang Ning pushed Jiang Li away not long ago.
Her eyes were firm and her movements were crisp and neat, without any hesitation.
Is this... really their daughter?
Jiang Ning saw the confusion in their eyes, and continued to speak while picking up food for them.
"Dad, Mom, I am nineteen years old this year. I am already an adult. I am no longer a child who can be bullied. Don't worry, I know what I am doing."
Hear these words.
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu became slightly calmer.
I sighed in my heart, maybe their daughter has really grown up...
Just thinking about it.
Jiang Ning's next words scared them so much that they almost dropped the chopsticks they had picked up.
"Dad, Mom, I'm getting married."
Jiang Ning still had the same calm tone as before.
But on her fair face, her red lips were slightly raised.
When I mentioned marriage, I couldn't help but smile sweetly when I thought of the man Qin Jiulie.
Now even Jiang Yuanshan couldn't sit still.
His eyes suddenly widened.
"Get... get married...?"
"Well, it's marriage." Jiang Ning nodded and continued, "It was introduced by Sister Hong, the women's director of the textile factory. In terms of organizational background, you can rest assured that he is an officer."
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu breathed a sigh of relief when they heard it was a soldier.
After all, Gu Yunshu is a woman and should be more careful.
She noticed the military uniform Jiang Ning was wearing. It was wide and ill-fitting, but it looked majestic.
only……
Gu Yunshu asked worriedly, "Ning'er, you just went on a blind date. You only met once and you have already decided to get married?"
Of course, it was impossible for Jiang Ning to tell the story about her and Qin Jiulie accidentally falling into bed together.
She selectively told some basic information about Qin Jiulie.
"He is a soldier. He is usually stationed in the army. If he is not on official business, he will not come to our place. Even if he writes a letter, it will be inconvenient to contact him in the future. It is better to get married directly, so that I don't have to participate in the sent-down youth countryside tour. , you can go to his army with the army."
After Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu heard this, they thought about it and nodded.
Nowadays, young people in the city need to participate in the educated youth sent to the countryside, and the places they go to are some remote and backward mountain villages, and the conditions are very difficult.
It would be better to join the army.
Not only is the living environment guaranteed, but there is also a man who can take care of Jiang Ning.
Although they were still worried about Jiang Ning's sudden marriage.
But in this era, there are many men and women who marry blindly and silently under the orders of their parents.
Like Jiang Ning, it can be said that she is very lucky to have the women's director introduce her to marriage as a matchmaker.
Although Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu had never met Qin Jiulie, they had already determined in their hearts that he should be a good man.
Jiang Ning continued.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, he is very kind to me. It can be said that he invited you to eat today's meal. If you don't believe it, look at -"
Talking.
Jiang Ning opened her military uniform pocket and showed it to Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu.
The couple looked up and saw a pocket full of money and notes.
"Wow--"
Jiang Yuanshan was dumbfounded and gasped. This was the first time in his 40-year-old life that he had seen so much money.
Gu Yunshu looked around nervously.
She held Jiang Ning's hand and covered her pocket tightly.
"Shh! Don't let anyone see you!"
Immediately afterwards.
Gu Yunshu asked in a low voice, "Did he really give you so much money directly?"
Jiang Ning nodded, "Yeah, he said let me spend whatever I want, no need to worry, he can support me."
This way.
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu became even more satisfied with this son-in-law whom they had never met before.
This was the first time for the three of them to eat in a restaurant, and it was a specialty of a state-owned restaurant.
The fragrant pork belly is soft and waxy when you bite into it, leaving a fragrant taste in your mouth.
The three of them had smiles on their faces.
It was as if he had forgotten the smoky atmosphere at home.
Wait until you are eight or nine times full.
There was one thing that Jiang Ning still had to say.
"Dad, Mom, I will join the army when I get married, so you don't have to worry about me. But - I can't worry about you. Do you really want to continue like this? All the hard-earned money is given to grandma, and Are you familiar with that white-eyed wolf?"
As soon as this statement came out.
Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu's expressions instantly became solemn, even... a kind of numbness after being PUA for a long time.
Jiang Yuanshan whispered.
"Aning, there are some things you don't know..."
"Dad, I actually know that you are not grandma's biological son, but she picked you up."
Jiang Ning's words directly hit the point.
More than forty years ago, Mrs. Jiang Li was unable to give birth to a son after getting married. She happened to pick up Jiang Yuanshan on the roadside and simply adopted him.
There is a saying in the countryside that if you raise a child, you will have one.
Two years after Jiang Li adopted Jiang Yuanshan, she became pregnant as expected.
After having a biological son.
The treatment of Jiang Yuanshan, his adopted son, took a turn for the worse.
He is still a son, but he has completely become a servant, servant, and long-term worker of the Jiang family!
This is also the reason why Jiang Li is so partial.
Jiang Yuanshan has a loyal nature, and because of the kindness of the Jiang Li family in raising him, he has been working hard and letting them exploit him for so many years.
But--
"Dad, it's been almost forty years. Isn't everything you have done for the Jiang family enough to repay the Jiang family for their upbringing?"
The Jiang Ning family spoke with a strong tone and each word was sonorous.
Jiang Yuanshan's emotions fluctuated violently, and he asked in disbelief, "Aning, how do you know this?"
Gu Yunshu felt very sad because of Jiang Ning's words. She silently turned her eyes red and wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.
The reason why Jiang Ning knew about it was of course not because of the memory of the original owner, but because the original article mentioned this matter.
At that time, Jiang Xinrou told this matter like a joke.
I also think that Jiang Yuanshan and Gu Yunshu's silent efforts are all deserved!
After Jiang Ning came here through the book, he had no feelings for the Jiang family, but he had sympathy for the original owner's hard-working parents.
She wanted to pull them out of the pit of fire.
"Dad, Mom, let's separate from them."
Jiang Ning suggested in a serious tone.
