Chapter 167: Your daughter has a problem and can't give birth
Xiguang Town on the other side
"Dad, Mom, you are here!"
On New Year's Eve, Jiang Sisi had been waiting for her parents to come over. When she saw them, she immediately went to greet them.
However, the people of the Du family, including Du Yingfan, all looked indifferent and showed no intention of welcoming them.
Only Du Yingfan stood up and gestured symbolically, but sat down again after saying hello.
This unwelcome look made Wang Yamei and Jiang Mingde feel a little embarrassed. If it wasn't the New Year, Jiang Mingde really wanted to turn around and leave.
"Dad, Mom, you brought something with you?" Jiang Sisi deliberately spoke loudly just for Li Xiujuan to hear.
Her parents clearly bring something every time they come over, but Li Xiujuan is so stingy. She's still complaining even while eating!
Hearing this, Li Xiujuan looked over here.
In Jiang Mingde's hand, there was indeed a piece of pig's head, but not even half of it. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
During the Chinese New Year, the two of them ate and drank more than this piece of pig's head.
"..." Li Xiujuan was dissatisfied and turned away, with no intention of going over to take the meat.
After all, they are Jiang Sisi's parents, so she will definitely entertain them herself.
In Li Xiujuan's opinion, it was already very good that she didn't step forward to make a mockery!
...
Jiang Sisi prepared the New Year's Eve dinner, and no one from the Du family helped. However, Wang Yamei felt sorry for her daughter and couldn't bear to watch it, so she went into the kitchen to help her.
But after that, Li Xiujuan would always come to the kitchen every once in a while, but she didn't help, she just took a look and left.
It feels like I'm afraid that the two of them will steal food in the kitchen!
"Is this how she treats you at home?" Wang Yamei was dissatisfied and felt even more distressed for Jiang Sisi.
If she hadn't insisted, Wang Yamei would really look down on the Du family. From the old to the young, not a single good person among them!
"Oh, mom, it's New Year's Day, don't say those things that spoil the fun." Jiang Sisi is now relying on the fact that she will be able to go to the island to do business soon to survive.
After the last incident, Li Xiujuan became more and more displeased with her and made things difficult for her in various ways.
When Wang Yamei came over before, Li Xiujuan would at least pretend, but now she doesn't pretend at all.
"Yingfan, the exam will be held in half a year after the New Year. How are your preparations going?" While eating, Wang Yamei suddenly asked about Du Yingfan's studies.
She thought that if Du Yingfan could pass the exam, maybe he could take Jiang Sisi away from the Du family and move out.
In this way, Jiang Sisi would not have to continue to endure Li Xiujuan's deliberate harassment.
"We're still preparing. This year... there should be hope." Du Yingfan answered truthfully.
Although he always thought about passing the exam, he was not very confident.
The two consecutive failures dealt him a heavy blow, and his mind became restless and he often couldn't concentrate on reading.
It's just that he could only keep these things in his heart and couldn't say them out loud.
"If you are not ready, you might as well not take the exam. You might as well find a job while you are still young. Otherwise, when you are older, you will have no work experience and it will be even more difficult to find a job." Jiang Mingde was listening nearby and suggested directly.
He had long been fed up with the fact that Du Yingfan only cared about studying, and felt that his studying was completely useless and just a waste of time.
At least Du Yingfan can go out to work and earn money, so his daughter's life will be better.
However, when the Du family heard what he said, they were dissatisfied.
They worked hard to support Du Yingfan's studies, hoping that he could pass the exam and go out to study and make a name for himself in the future.
"The exam hasn't even started yet, so how can it be impossible? There is still half a year before the exam, so there is plenty of time to prepare. Why go to work? Our Du family can afford to support you." Li Xiujuan retorted directly.
If it were in the past, she could have been more tactful, but now she was already dissatisfied in her heart, so it was impossible for her to endure it at this moment.
This member of the Jiang family ate their food and actually said such depressing words. Li Xiujuan really wanted to kick them out.
Wang Yamei's face turned ugly when she heard her words full of tension.
The atmosphere at the table was somewhat tense, as if a quarrel would break out at any moment.
"Mom, don't be angry. Dad meant well." Jiang Sisi quickly tried to smooth things over, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes.
It was New Year's Day, and she couldn't just watch the two sides quarreling, otherwise she would not be able to celebrate the New Year well.
"How dare you talk like that? You've been married for so long, but there's still no movement in your stomach. I don't know if I can have a baby." Li Xiujuan hadn't thought it through at all. When she saw Jiang Sisi talking, she immediately turned her attention to her.
She has always been upset about the fact that Jiang Sisi has not yet gotten pregnant.
Anyway, there were no children, and the Jiang family was still asking for money in their old age. Li Xiujuan thought of just driving them away. At worst, she could just marry someone else who could give birth.
Thinking of this, she became more impolite in her words.
"It's only been a short time. Yingfan is busy preparing for the exam. It's not our Sisi's fault that she didn't get pregnant!" Wang Yamei immediately spoke up for Jiang Sisi.
"..." Jiang Sisi swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Now Du Yingfan is about to do business, and she can't offend anyone at this time.
But it was obviously because Du Yingfan’s time was short and she couldn’t have a baby, so it wasn’t her fault!
Jiang Sisi felt aggrieved, but thinking of the wife of the richest man, she gritted her teeth and endured it.
"If we don't blame her, who else can we blame our Yingfan? It's her own fault!" Li Xiujuan had already started arguing with Wang Yamei.
"What are you talking about? My daughter is very healthy!" Wang Yamei said, glancing at Du Yingfan's legs. "But yours is indeed lame."
"you!"
The two of them were talking back and forth, neither of them willing to give in, and they said all kinds of nasty things.
If this continues, I'm afraid the two families will go from being relatives to being enemies.
"Mom and Dad, Yingfan and I have already agreed that after the New Year, we will go to the island together to do business!" Jiang Sisi suddenly spoke, and the quarrel in the room came to an abrupt end.
Everyone: "???"
Both parents were shocked by what she had just said. They never imagined that two people had planned such a big thing behind the scenes.
Du Yingfan's parents, in particular, subconsciously looked at their son. Until they heard about this from Jiang Sisi today, they had never heard Du Yingfan mention this matter.
"Sisi, are you serious? Are you really going to the island to do business?" Wang Yamei spoke first, with a hint of uncertainty and surprise in her voice.
In this way, Jiang Sisi can get rid of Li Xiujuan as soon as possible, which is a good thing.
Besides, since Du Yingfan doesn't study, it's good that he can do some work. At least he won't just spend money without making money.
"It's true, Mom. We have already made plans and will go after the New Year. There are many business opportunities on the island. I believe we will be successful!" Jiang Sisi said with a firm look in her eyes.
