Mother Jiang didn't even expect her daughter to agree to stay.
"Ning Ning, I'm really happy that you can stay. Don't worry, mom won't be greedy to keep you here for a long time. If you can stay for one night, I'll be satisfied."
She liked her daughter so much, and the look in her eyes was full of love.
Even Jiang Mengning was shocked when he looked at her with this look.
Very touched too.
This mother is so kind.
I silently scolded the original owner again.
Your family is so kind to you, but you are so ashamed of your family and can be so indifferent to your family. This is so outrageous.
The original owner is really nothing.
"If I have a chance in the future, I will come back to see you." She said comfortingly.
Mother Jiang was even happier.
"Okay, okay, my daughter has really grown up. My daughter is so sensible now. Mom is very happy for you."
"Ning Ning, you must be tired after this trip. You sit down and rest for a while. I will cook something delicious for you."
Originally, there was nothing to eat at home.
They had just returned to the city. They had no income and no savings. If they wanted to survive, they had to live by picking up garbage and selling it.
It just so happened that Father Jiang brought back a lot of things yesterday, which kept them hungry.
It also gave Mother Jiang the ingredients to make delicious food for her daughter.
Otherwise, she would be embarrassed to keep her daughter here.
She couldn't bear to let her daughter eat chaffy vegetables with her.
Mother Jiang hurriedly prepared the meals for dinner.
The stove built outside was kicked into pieces by the old woman just now.
Mother Jiang was in a hurry to get angry and worked hard to re-build the stove.
The stove is just a few stones stuck together with mud, very simple.
The cooking pot at home is also missing.
Mother Jiang's thin figure squatted in the corner, carefully building the stove.
I'm afraid that if I don't do it right, I won't be able to eat dinner at night.
This look was inexplicably sad.
Huo Jinyan glanced at Jiang Mengning, as if observing her reaction.
After a while, he walked out.
"Mom, let me do it!"
He squatted next to Jiang's mother and took the stone in her hand.
The man's strong arms held the heavy stone effortlessly. For him, building a stove and setting up a stove seemed to be something he was used to, and there was no challenge at all.
Mother Jiang was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses.
When she faced Huo Jinyan, she still felt a little guilty.
After all, his daughter really used dishonorable means to marry him back then.
Although it was Grandpa Jiang’s idea, Grandpa Jiang is also a very important member of the Jiang family!
We can't say that it has nothing to do with the Jiang family because Grandpa Jiang did something wrong!
She looked embarrassed and looked at Huo Jinyan's side face for a long time before she said, "Jinyan, I haven't had the chance to seriously apologize to you all this time. I'm so sorry! Our Jiang family has dragged you down. .”
In such a turbulent era, if a well-established military officer marries a capitalist lady, how many people will look down upon and slander him!
Maybe, just because of this relationship, he has no hope of promotion in the future.
Mother Jiang must feel guilty.
In her life, she owed nothing to anyone but Huo Jinyan.
Huo Jinyan didn't even raise his head, and he didn't even stop moving his hands.
His voice was steady, neither impatient nor impatient: "Mom, let's not talk about the past. I'm living a good life now."
The more careless he was, the more unhappy Jiang's mother felt.
There was another thing that she always kept in mind.
Her daughter and son-in-law have been married for two years and don't even have children. This must be because the son-in-law has some objections to her daughter and doesn't want to have children!
It was hard for her to tell her son-in-law about this. She had to find an opportunity to talk to her daughter.
In this life, getting married and having children is a big event, and everything is indispensable. Otherwise, life will not be perfect.
My son-in-law is a very nice person, she really likes her and is very satisfied.
It is a blessing for his daughter to marry him.
Jiang Mengning stood at the door, looking at the scene outside.
I have to say that Huo Jinyan is really a model among men.
Even if he married a woman he didn't like, he still didn't forget the filial piety of a junior to his elders.
And he never has negative emotions, and he never talks about what happened before.
In the marriage, he has always been the silent one.
Jiang Mengning sighed.
Why!
What a wonderful man!
In fact, it is really good to marry such a person.
Thinking of this, the look in her eyes at Huo Jinyan really showed a hint of admiration.
It's not the kind of purposeful teasing before, but I really like him a little bit.
But it was just her personal admiration and appreciation for him, and it was not to the point where she would sacrifice everything for him.
In the middle, there is still something missing.
As for what it was, she couldn't tell.
Maybe it’s because I don’t feel it!
"Hey, why are you still building the stove here! I already told you that this is my place, why don't you be ashamed?"
The old woman in the house next to her was watching the Jiang family's activities from the window. She was very angry when she saw that the stove that had been kicked over was being built again.
She definitely couldn't allow others to occupy her territory. Originally, there were many people in each household, and the houses she was allocated were only a little bigger. But now the territory was so precious that even one square meter had to be fought for.
Mrs. Song was a master who didn't want to suffer, so she immediately opened the door and rushed out.
Just now in the room, she didn't see Huo Jinyan from her perspective.
When I got closer, I saw that the man in military uniform was still there, not only that, but also helping to build the stove, I immediately panicked.
"Who are you! Why are you helping others grab their territory?"
Even if he was an officer, she couldn't bear to take away her territory.
People just want to fight for something.
You can't live too hard.
Huo Jinyan didn't even look at her and kept doing the work he was doing.
Mother Jiang has a gentle personality. She believes that doing more is worse than doing less. Whenever she conflicts with others, she always ends up with an apology.
"Grandma Song, he is my son-in-law."
Grandma Song's heart skipped a beat.
Unexpectedly, the Jiang family who had just moved in looked miserable, and they actually had a son-in-law who was an army officer.
So what if he is a son-in-law!
Except for those who came to check from above, she didn't take it to heart.
Anyway, I can't touch her territory.
"Oh, it turns out that because my son-in-law is an army officer, he dares to bully ordinary people like us! Let me tell you, no way, no matter who it is, they can't steal my things, or I will sue you."
She has lived here for more than ten years and is used to being domineering. The neighbors around her don't like her.
Calling her behind her back is like calling her a dead old woman.
Mother Jiang explained humbly: "Grandma Song, you have to see clearly that the place where I set up the stove is in front of our house, not your house. We are not taking your place."
The layout of the old and small houses is very messy. Basically, the land in front of the house belongs to the other house.
Therefore, most people will use some wooden fences to enclose their territory, which means that it is theirs.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the location of Mrs. Song's family circle is obviously much beyond her own home, and she also deliberately piled wood towards the Jiang family.
The wood piles are getting bigger and bigger every day, and the piles are getting more and more tilted every day.
What she understands is that the place where I stack the wood is my territory, and it cannot be used by others.
As for the Jiang family, some of their territory was taken over, but they didn't say anything.
The stoves built are all behind the pile of wood, and they belong entirely to their own territory.
But Mrs. Song was not happy. She would not allow the stoves to be piled up anywhere, and she had to say that it was her family's territory. This was very shameless and abominable.
Faced with Jiang's mother's explanation, Mrs. Song pretended that she couldn't hear it at all.
"What doesn't belong to my family? These wood belong to my family, and this land must also belong to me. Get the stove away quickly, or I'll crush it to pieces if you don't."
Mother Jiang was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.
Huo Jinyan was about to give a lesson, but Jiang Mengning couldn't stand it anymore.
She slowly walked up to the old woman and looked at her condescendingly.
"Wow, you speak so nicely. You don't look like someone who is about to die half of his body. Keep going, I want to see if a shameless person can turn black into white."
She usually doesn't get angry when she teaches people, and her usual method is to use yin and yang to make people angry.
Until people are pissed off.
"Why do you, a young girl, speak so viciously? You cursed me to death."
"Did I curse you to death? You won't live for a few more days? I'm just wondering, do you have glaucoma or cataracts? Are you blind to this extent?"
"Look for yourself who piled all the things in front of my house. Other people's land is square and square, as big as it is, and it will never take up a cent of the neighbor. Yours is better, and your own land has legs. , and even took eighteen turns on the mountain road.”
"Do you really think that just by putting those rags on other people's territory, you can claim that it is your own territory? If you are so good at robbing, why don't you go to the battlefield to fight! The enemy has so many artillery equipment, you must have snatched them all by yourself. Bar!"
"What a shameless old thing. The first time I didn't argue with you was because you were older. We still have some moral character of respecting the old and loving the young. But if you bully people again and again, then we definitely can't treat you right." You are welcome."
She pointed domineeringly at the piles of broken wood: "Hurry up and move all these things away. Taking someone's land will destroy your descendants."
Mrs. Song was shocked.
She was actually scolded by a dead girl liar?
She was always the only one who scolded others, but no one dared to scold her.
It was terrible immediately, I felt so humiliated and humiliated, and I wanted to die immediately.
"You dare to curse me to death and also curse me to annihilate my descendants? I'm not alive anymore!"
She sat down on the ground and started howling.
The old lady had this kind of virtue. If she couldn't beat her, she would just lie down on the ground. She would make such a big noise that no one dared to mess with her.
Miss Jiang Mengning also lost her temper.
He dared to quarrel with her. If he didn't teach her a lesson, he wouldn't know how high the sky is.
She took the hammer from the corner and walked towards the Song family.
When he saw the Song family's stove, he raised his hammer and smashed it down.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
With one or two blows, the stove was destroyed in an instant.
Mrs. Song was even more dumbfounded. She even dared to smash her things. It was fatal!
Quickly get up from the ground and go to stop Jiang Mengning.
"Stop, don't smash it, don't smash it, my stove!"
Jiang Mengning was still angry, and she didn't let go of the clothes hanging in the yard.
He pulled them all to the ground and stamped them with his feet.
These are all the things the old woman did just now, and she retaliates in kind.
The old woman followed Jiang Mengying around.
Jiang Mengning immediately ran back to her side after splashing, and even hid behind Huo Jinyan.
"Damn old lady, if I don't teach you a lesson, you really think no one can deal with you! If you keep calm for me in the future, if you bully others again, I will even smash your house."
Mrs. Song was so angry that she almost pushed her over on the spot.
Pointing at Jiang Mengning, she was shaking with anger.
"You...I'm going to sue you."
Jiang Mengning shrugged indifferently.
"You go, you go, if you can sue and win, I will take your last name."
The old woman really can't do anything to Jiang Mengning. She is actually a bully and fears the strong.
I met a tough guy today and I totally suffered.
He couldn't be beaten or scolded, so he could only cry and criticize her.
Jiang Mengning warned again and immediately didn't dare to say anything.
She had to obediently collect the rags she had piled up.
She almost used the fastest speed, she was really afraid that these things would be burned.
Mother Jiang almost didn't react when she saw this scene.
When did her daughter become so powerful?
It doesn't matter whether it's a bit cruel or cruel, at least it won't be as cowardly as her, as long as you don't suffer a loss.
She touched her daughter's hair.
"Ning Ning seems to have really changed now!"
Huo Jinyan heard this and glanced sideways at Jiang Mengning with a meaningful look in his eyes.
Jiang Mengning coughed awkwardly.
Can it remain unchanged? She is no longer the original owner.
Forget it, she doesn't care about personality or anything, she just needs to be herself.
"Look what I'm doing, hurry up and get to work! Do you still want to eat dinner?"
She glared at Huo Jinyan and motioned for him to work quickly.
Huo Jinyan chuckled, inexplicably.
Jiang Mengning couldn't even guess what he was thinking.
She didn't want to guess anyway.
This man's thoughts are more thoughtful than that of a woman.
At about four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang's father, Jiang Mian, and Brother Jiang came back.
The three people did not come back empty-handed. They all had sacks in their hands, which contained a lot of things.
Father Jiang couldn't help but swallowed when he saw his wife cooking, and it was delicious.
"Daughter-in-law, what are you cooking delicious today? It smells so delicious!"
He showed the trophies in his hands to his wife like a treasure.
"Daughter-in-law, we picked up a lot of garbage today. We will definitely make a lot of money by selling it tomorrow. When I have money, I will buy a beautiful dress for my daughter to wear."
Mother Jiang quickly shushed Father Jiang: "Stop talking and hide all this garbage quickly."
She didn't want her daughter to see this garbage.
Father Jiang didn't understand what was going on, and wanted to ask his wife what was wrong. At this moment, he saw Jiang Mengning and Huo Jinyan walking out of the house.
The two of them stood at the door. The handsome man and the beautiful woman were very eye-catching.
He was so frightened that his hands shook and the bag in his hand fell to the ground.
The bag was untied, and several plastic bottles rolled out of it.
"Ningning, Jinyan, why are you here?"
Father Jiang was pleasantly surprised.
Jiang Mian's eyes widened even more.
"Sister, brother-in-law, are you here to see us?"
He was so happy. He only saw his sister yesterday, and he could see her again today. It was such a wonderful day.
Jiang Mian couldn't wait to run to her sister and wanted her to touch her head.
This was the second time for them to meet Jiang Mengning. Only Brother Jiang only met today.
For his sister, it really hurts to hold her in his hands!
Now that he saw that his sister was still as fair and tender as before, he was relieved.
He walked over and looked at his sister innocently: "Sister, you are here!"
He touched his body in embarrassment, but found nothing, which made him even more embarrassed.
"Sorry, I didn't know you were coming today. I don't have anything delicious with me."
In the past, no matter where he came back from, he would buy delicious food for his sister. Now, he has no money to buy anything, which is really embarrassing.
Brother Jiang is a loyal and honest man, completely different from Jiang Mian's quirky and eloquent personality.
He is even more introverted and shy, and his feelings for his sister are more silent.
Jiang Mengning smiled and struggled in her heart for a long time before saying hello to them one by one.
"Dad, big brother, little brother."
When the three of them heard Jiang Mengning calling them, they were so serious that they almost cried.
Jiang Mian could not wait to hug her sister's thigh and scream.
Father Jiang rubbed his hands excitedly and hurriedly called people into the house.
"Let's go inside and sit for a while. Your mother's food is almost ready. Let's eat and drink together. Jiang Mian, I'll give you fifty cents and you can go get a pound of liquor back. I want to have a good drink with Jin Yan today. .”
The house suddenly became lively.
In the small house, a simple dining table was set up with wooden boards, and the family sat together and had a simple meal.
At the dinner table, Dad was very happy and repeatedly urged Huo Jinyan to drink.
Huo Jinyan didn't want to drink it at first, but couldn't bear to persuade him and didn't want to hurt his father-in-law's heart, so he drank it anyway.
After the meal, I really enjoyed myself.
After dinner, Mother Jiang went to clean the room.
She gave the best room to Jiang Mengning and Huo Jinyan to sleep.
He also took out the best bedding, fearing that his daughter and son-in-law would be wronged.
night.
Jiang Mengning was placed in the room, and Jiang's mother also found pajamas and pajamas for her to wear.
"Daughter, you go to bed early today. Jinyan seems to have drank a little too much. He needs to rest early. Mom will not disturb you."
