Chapter 82
Jiang Ruoxing was almost speechless.
“Mom, what’s wrong with being twenty-three?”
He is twenty-three years old, not thirty-three years old, so how can he become a loser?
"If you still don't believe it, go out and ask which family's daughter didn't get married by twenty-one or twenty at the latest. If there is no more girls, what will your elder brother do?"
Jiang Ruoxing couldn't laugh or cry, "Mom, there is no one suitable for eldest brother in the whole capital yet? Don't worry, my eldest brother must be good-looking and capable. Even if we break off the engagement, he can still find a good girl in the future."
"Mom, Jin Meiling is really not suitable." Jiang Yuan had been holding it in for a long time. "Let me tell you bluntly. When she gets married, her parents will definitely hunt us down. Let us do it today and let Xingxing do it tomorrow.
That matter, they will never be satisfied. If you don't want peace in the future, then get married."
Yao: "Look what you are saying!"
Jiang Zhonghua agreed with his son's words, "Jiang Yuan is right. Unless Jin Meiling completely breaks away from her natal family, we will never have a peaceful life in the future."
Jiang Yuan sneered, "After Xingxing came back, we didn't ask for anything in order not to cause trouble to her. Who of me and my eldest brother has a job? It's good for them. My daughter hasn't even married yet, so she wants to take advantage of her sister-in-law. It's really ridiculous.
It’s so eye-catching.”
Jiang Ruoxing laughed out loud, her second brother's mouth turned out to be so poisonous.
"Cancel the engagement, it doesn't matter even if you can't find a partner in the future." Jiang Ye's attitude was firm.
I have always heard Jin Meiling say how good her parents are to her, but now it seems that they are also patriarchal. It is just that her parents are patriarchal. He does not live with her parents, but Jin Meiling is also the same.
Thinking this way, Jiang Ye couldn't accept it.
"Okay, it's getting late, parents, why don't you go to bed first."
How could Mrs. Yao sleep? Jiang Zhonghua took her back to the room.
Jiang Ruoxing saw Jiang Ye's face flushed to the root of his neck with anger, and he wanted to laugh but held it back.
She pulled Jiang Ye into the yard, "Brother, do you have feelings for Jin Meiling?"
Jiang Ye was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.
No feelings.
The two were introduced by people in the village, and they only met a few times. After they got engaged, he said he wanted to see her, but Jin Guotao and his wife said it would harm his daughter's reputation and they were not allowed to meet. Their family proposed the marriage.
, but they also said they were reluctant to part with their daughter and wanted to keep her for a few more years.
If we don't meet each other, where will the feelings come from?
Jiang Ruoxing laughed, "So, you just believed what Jin Guotao and his wife said?"
Jiang Ye was stunned, "Isn't it?"
"Of course not," Jiang Ruoxing looked at Jiang Ye speechlessly. She wanted to open up her elder brother's brain to see how much water was inside, "Xi Xiangdong and I haven't gotten engaged yet, and he doesn't come here often. Although you are dissatisfied,
But did you get rid of him?"
Jiang Ye choked, they were dissatisfied, but they also thought that they would be able to find out whether they were compatible if they got along with each other more, and if there were any problems, it would be better if they found out early.
"What do you mean by staying a few more years and feeling sorry for your daughter? You saw it today. Are they good to Jin Meiling?"
Jiang Ye raised his eyes, "So they are lying to me?"
Jiang Ruoxing nodded under his gaze, "You have most likely been deceived."
Jiang Ye turned around a few times, and Jiang Ruoxing continued, "Originally, I was thinking that if you had feelings for Jin Meiling, I could find a way for you. Since you don't have feelings, then break off the engagement."
Maybe after breaking off the engagement, not only will the previous bride price not be returned, but Jin Guotao and his wife may also cause trouble, but it is still better than living with the eldest brother for the rest of his life.
It’s not scary for parents to favor boys over girls. What’s scary is that children have also formed this kind of thinking under the influence of their parents. Then it’s not a matter of one generation, but affects the next generation.
As the eldest brother said, she also doesn't want her future niece to be looked down upon.
"When my mother was a girl at home, my grandparents favored boys over girls. My mother was basically sold to my father as his wife. But just because my mother has endured such hardships, she will not let her daughter suffer the same.
If Jin Meiling is like my mother, I will not break off the engagement, but she is obviously influenced by her parents."
Jiang Ruoxing patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, it's not easy for us to discuss other people's affairs. Since you have decided to break off the engagement, you have to remember that no matter what happens, you must stick to this attitude and don't waver because of anything.
"
If it were before, it might be easy to call off the marriage, but over there, you would be very happy if you got the betrothal gift for nothing.
But things are different now. Seeing that their family is getting better and better, how could Jin Guotao let this marriage go so easily? He might be causing a big fuss.
Two days passed, and there was no news from Jin Guotao. Jiang Ruoxing didn't take it to heart. She lived a life of two o'clock and one line every day. Moreover, the apple trees in the space grew into a large apple orchard, and the apples were red.
They were so big that Jiang Ruoxing took out a dozen of them and took out a lunch break to visit Gu's house.
Gu Nancheng and Zhang Shilan both went to work and did not come back at noon. When Jiang Ruoxing arrived, his grandfather was playing with the birds in the yard. When he saw Jiang Ruoxing coming, Gu Wenbin smiled so hard that the creases on his face deepened by a few millimeters. He walked towards her with a cane.
Walk over here.
"Xingxing, come here quickly. Why are you here? Aren't you going to school?"
Jiang Ruoxing trotted over and helped Gu Wenbin, "Grandpa, please slow down."
"it's okay no problem."
Jiang Ruoxing helped Gu Wenbin sit down, "I miss you. I slept well last night and wasn't sleepy at noon, so I thought I'd come over and see you."
"Silly girl, you came here when you came. Why are you still buying things? Grandpa doesn't need you." Gu Wenbin blamed her. Xingxing didn't take a penny from the Gu family before leaving the card. Jiang Yuan's clothes were all patched.
Knowing that their family was very poor, Xingxing bought her a big bag of apples. How much did it cost?
"Grandpa, let me tell you a secret." After saying that, Jiang Ruoxing whispered a few words into Gu Wenbin's ear, and then looked back at Gu Wenbin with a look that begged for praise, as if to say, praise me, praise me, praise me.
Gu Wenbin nodded her forehead angrily, "You still want me to praise you, and I want to beat you, who gave you the courage to go to the black market!"
Jiang Ruoxing shamelessly took Gu Wenbin's arm and said, "Grandpa gave it to me, hehe."
Gu Wenbin couldn't do anything to her, "You're not allowed to go there again, don't you know."
Jiang Ruoxing exclaimed, "Grandpa, I'm angry. I finally came to see you and missed you so much, but you scolded me as soon as I came, and I wasn't happy."
Gu Wenbin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, don't be poor. You're not allowed to go there anymore, you know."
