After the marriage, the charming educated youth is eye-catching

Jiang Shen felt inexplicably annoyed by Zhong Xueyuan's politeness and alienation. He told himself that if it weren't for the sake of the two children, he wouldn't even bother saying a word to Zhong Xueyuan.

"Yes, yes, yes, let's eat first, otherwise the food will get cold." Jiang's mother quickly tried to smooth things over, "Niannian, go call your brother to come and eat."

"it is good!"

Zhong Xueyuan had no choice but to swallow all her words back into her stomach.

She knew very well that Shen's mother had good intentions, but with her identity, appearing in the military area with Jiang Shen would cause unnecessary trouble.

After dinner in the evening, she took her two children back home.

Before going to bed, Zhong Niannian nestled in her mother's arms and asked in a sweet voice, "Mom, do you dislike Uncle Jiang?"

Zhong Xueyuan tucked the quilt in, not knowing how to answer her for a moment. After a moment of silence, she said, "Do you like him very much?"

"Yes!" Zhong Niannian almost blurted out, "My brother and I both like Uncle Jiang very much."

Zhong Xueyuan lowered her eyes and said softly, "Then...will you miss your father?"

Speaking of her father, Zhong Xueyuan frowned. "I don't miss him. We've lived in the capital for so long, and he hasn't come to see us. I hate him!"

Seeing that she had misunderstood Wei Zhihe, Zhong Xueyuan hesitated to speak. In her heart, she didn't want her two children to have too much affection for Wei Zhihe.

She knew very well that Wei Zhihe didn't care about the children that much at all.

"Nian Nian, do you like your current life?"

Zhong Xueyuan changed the subject.

Zhong Niannian looked up at her mother and blinked, "I like it! But I also miss my great-grandmother, my uncle, my aunt, my aunt... Mom, when can we go home?"

Even though they live here carefree now, it is not their home after all.

Zhong Xueyuan had a hard time saying it. If they went back rashly, it would definitely alert Wei Zhihe, and then it would not be so easy to get out again.

After finally getting rid of him, the three of them could live a peaceful life. She didn't want to have any contact with Wei Zhihe anymore.

"When mom is not busy at work, I will take you back home, okay?"

In order to appease her granddaughter, Zhong Xueyuan could only paint a rosy picture for her.

Zhong Niannian nodded, "Yes! Grandma Jiang gave my brother and me a lot of delicious food. I couldn't bear to eat some of it. I'm going to give it to my aunt and the others when we get back!"

The capital is the capital after all, and there are some new things that are not available in their hometowns.

Zhong Xueyuan nodded. It was almost her younger sister's wedding date. She hadn't attended her younger brother Zhong Heyang's wedding before. It would feel a bit bad if she didn't go this time.

But going back is also a big problem.

Zhong Xueyuan rubbed her brows and said, "Go to sleep quickly, my brother is already asleep."

Zhong Niannian turned her head to look at her brother next to her, and suddenly felt sleepy. She hugged her mother's arms with both hands and closed her eyes obediently.

Zhong Xueyuan beside him was not sleepy at all. Siyu's illness had not progressed. The only thing to be thankful for was that he had more emotional changes than before.

This is a good thing.

The Jiang family on the other side.

Because he had to pick up and drop off the three women next door, Jiang Shen had to stay here overnight.

Jiang's mother sat in the living room, watching her son come out after washing up. She called out to him, "Xiao Shen, come here. I have something to ask you."

Jiang Shen was drying his hair with a towel and walked over obediently, "What's wrong?"

Jiang's mother stared at her son intently, "Tell me the truth, what do you think of Xiaoyuan?"

Jiang Shen saw that his mother was trying to mess around with the couple again, so he immediately stood up and said, "Mom, don't do that."

"Where did I mess up?"

Jiang's mother was anxious. "You're almost forty. Do you want me to die without ever seeing you get married?"

Jiang Shen turned his back to her, full of resistance to marriage, "Here you go again, is it really that important whether I get married or not?"

"Of course it's important!" Jiang's mother said earnestly, "You may not feel anything now that you're alone, but think about it, if I didn't have a son like you and your father divorced me, do you think I could live such a good life now?"

"When people get older, they need someone to rely on. I want you to get married because I hope someone can take care of you when you are old."

Jiang Shen disagreed, "I'm in good health and don't need anyone to take care of me when I'm old."

Mother Jiang: “…”

It was this excuse again. She almost regretted letting her son join the army.

"I don't care! Xiaoyuan is a good girl. It's not easy for her to raise two children alone. If you're not interested in her, then find someone else and go on a blind date!"

Jiang Shen felt like his head was about to explode, "I'm not going."

"Jiang Shen, do you want to piss your mother off to death?"

Jiang's mother covered her chest, feeling very uncomfortable. She was divorced when she was young and raised her son alone.

That's why she could empathize with Zhong Xueyuan's experience.

But Zhong Xueyuan is better off than her. She is in the art troupe. She is educated and has a skill. She doesn't have to be looked down upon and excluded everywhere like she did in the past, and even having enough food to eat became a problem.

If it weren't for her son's hard work, she wouldn't be able to live such a good life.

Jiang Shen frowned, turned around and saw his mother putting on another act. He said helplessly, "Forget about the blind date."

Seeing that there was room for negotiation, Jiang's mother felt less choked up and quickly asked, "So, you want to give it a try with Xiaoyuan?"

Jiang Shen's mouth twitched slightly. "You're just randomly matching people up. What's the point of trying it out? Didn't you see her attitude? She's desperate to draw a line between us, afraid of causing trouble for us."

Jiang's mother said, "This shows that she knows her limits. Isn't that a good thing? Besides, when people interact with each other, their true nature is revealed by their people."

Speaking of this, Jiang's mother couldn't help but complain again: "With your mouth, it's a sign of strength that I haven't cried because of you."

Jiang Shen: “…”

"Girls need to be coaxed. You usually treat Nian Nian so lovingly, but why do you have such a stern face when you're with her mother? Can't you just talk to her nicely?"

Jiang Shen: “…”

He was so confused by what he heard that he said perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, you are right. Can I change it?"

Glancing at the clock on the wall, he urged, "It's getting late. It's time to rest."

After saying that, he walked briskly into the house without looking back.

Jiang's mother looked at his irrational appearance and scolded him with a smile, "You little bastard! Can't you let me worry less?"

He is already old, but I still have to worry about his marriage.

But when she thought that if Zhong Xueyuan really became her daughter-in-law, it would be a win-win situation.

Not only did it solve the problem of his son getting married, but his son also became a father.

There was no way around it. Jiang's mother almost lost her life due to a difficult labor when she gave birth to Jiang Shen, so in her eyes, giving birth is a dangerous thing that could cost lives.

She doesn't care about blood inheritance or anything like that, she just wants her son to have someone close to him to accompany him.

When he gets old, he won't be alone.
