Chapter 115 Changes in the Xie Family
Chapter 115 Changes in the Xie Family
Jiang Xingjun's lifeless eyes suddenly lit up.
"Really?"
Su Xiaoxiao's mouth corners slightly raised, forming a beautiful smile.
"Of course it's true. Not only does Third Brother miss Lanlan, I miss Lanlan too. It's just that I haven't been able to find the time to see her!"
Jiang Xingjun nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, let's go see Lanlan tomorrow! I'm going to the street now to buy some of Lanlan's favorite food!"
After saying that, he strode out quickly. Just as Su Xiaoxiao was about to call him to go with her, his hurried figure disappeared from her sight.
Su Xiaoxiao and Zhao Wanzhu looked at each other and smiled.
Zhao Wanzhu couldn't help but sigh: "Lanlan is such a happy girl!"
Although Jiang Lanlan was born into a farming family, her parents are loving, her brothers and sisters-in-law are harmonious, and they love her very much and never treat her differently because she is a girl. Now she has married her ideal husband. Among many girls, she is indeed the happy one.
Su Xiaoxiao is not jealous of what Jiang Lanlan has. Instead, she sincerely hopes that Jiang Lanlan can be happy forever.
"Yes! Mom, I'm going out to take a look and buy some things for Lanlan!"
"Go!"
When Su Chengen heard that it was something for Jiang Lanlan, and thinking about how Jiang Lanlan had taken care of him before, he also became interested.
"Sister, I also want to buy a gift for Sister Lanlan. Can I go?"
"Of course you can. I'll take you shopping and buy some delicious food for Cheng'en!"
"Great! I'm going shopping!"
Su Chengen danced with joy.
The next morning, Jiang Xingjun drove a horse-drawn carriage, took Su Xiaoxiao, and brought a lot of gifts, and went straight to the village where Jiang Lanlan's in-laws lived.
Along the way, Jiang Xingjun kept waving the whip, hoping that the horse would run faster and faster so that he could see Jiang Lanlan sooner.
We arrived at Jiang Lanlan's husband's village around 9:30 in the morning.
Jiang Lanlan's husband's surname was Xie. When the carriage arrived at the door of Xie's house, Jiang Xingjun grabbed the reins.
"Shut up!"
The carriage immediately slowed down and stopped.
A horse-drawn carriage came to the village, attracting the attention of many villagers.
They were all curious about whose house this carriage was coming from.
When the carriage stopped in front of Old Xie's house, the villagers gathered around.
Some of them recognized that the person driving the carriage was Jiang Lanlan's brother from her mother's family, and they were surprised and whispered to the people around them.
"The Xie family is truly blessed to have found such a wealthy wife!"
"Who says it's not? This carriage must have cost at least several dozen taels, right? The family of the daughter-in-law of the old Xie family bought it just like that."
"Haven't you noticed? Ever since this new daughter-in-law came into the family, the Xie family's life has changed dramatically."
"How could I not know? Look at the chickens, ducks, geese, and rabbits in the yard. Oh, and there's even a pig in the backyard. I heard they were all bought with the new bride's dowry."
"Is the Xie family really that excessive? Using my daughter-in-law's dowry to build up their family business."
"That old woman Wu is famous for her smooth talk. She managed to coax the new bride into a trance. Plus, Xie Zhi is so handsome that he made her completely bewildered. If she said something nice, she could have gotten the dowry!"
"Poor new bride."
As Jiang Xingjun helped Su Xiaoxiao get off the carriage, the discussions among the few people stopped abruptly.
Su Xiaoxiao and Jiang Xingjun were so focused on Jiang Lanlan that they didn't hear what the people around them were saying.
Because the two were not familiar with the villagers, they did not talk to them.
Su Xiaoxiao asked Jiang Xingjun, "Is this Lanlan's in-laws' family?"
"Yeah! I've been here twice, there's no mistake!"
Because the gate was closed, the two men looked into the yard through the fence that was more than half a person's height.
The yard was cleaned very well, and the chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits were all eating fresh grass and were all very fat.
Not sure if anyone was at home, Jiang Xingjun shouted a few words.
"Lanlan! Is Lanlan at home?"
Jiang Lanlan's mother-in-law, Mrs. Wu, was taking a nap at home. When she heard shouting outside, she frowned impatiently and shouted at Jiang Lanlan who was kneading dough in the kitchen to prepare lunch.
"Why don't you go and see which short-lived person is crying out in mourning outside? It's so noisy, can't we even sleep?"
Wu's words were very unpleasant, and Jiang Lanlan didn't like it very much. Wu's mouth was dark and smelly, and if she said it wrong, it would bring disaster upon herself. She didn't want to get into trouble, so she ignored her and responded.
"Hey! Good!"
She got up and went outside. While wiping her hands with her apron, she looked outside and saw Jiang Xingjun and Su Xiaoxiao.
She thought she was dazzled and saw it wrong.
She rubbed her eyes, and when she saw the two men smiling at her, she was sure that this was true.
Her dim eyes suddenly lit up and she ran towards the door excitedly.
"Xiao Xiao! Third brother!"
Su Xiaoxiao and Jiang Xingjun were so happy to see Jiang Lanlan.
Jiang Lanlan opened the door and hugged Su Xiaoxiao tightly.
"Xiao Xiao, I miss you so much!"
"I miss you, Lanlan, too!"
When Jiang Xingjun saw his sister whom he hadn't seen for many days, somehow, his nose felt sore and his eyes turned red, even though he had always been strong.
He was a real man and didn't want others to see him crying, so he forced himself to hold back his tears.
"Lanlan, how are you doing recently?"
When Jiang Lanlan heard Jiang Xingjun's voice, she reluctantly left Su Xiaoxiao's arms and took Jiang Xingjun's hand to answer.
"Okay, Third Brother, I'm fine!"
As she answered, Jiang Lanlan's eyes were filled with tears.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't think much about it. She just thought that Jiang Lanlan was crying because she was too excited to see them.
"Lanlan, we brought you a lot of food, all your favorites!"
Jiang Xingjun also agreed, "Yes, I also bought some things you can use in daily life, and bought you a new dress."
"thank you all!"
"We are family, there is no need to be polite. Should I move all these things to your room?"
"it is good!"
As Jiang Lanlan was speaking, she was about to help move things onto the carriage, but was immediately stopped by Jiang Xingjun.
"Lanlan, don't move. Go talk to the little girl. I'll do the work!"
Jiang Lanlan has always been spoiled by her brothers at home. When she heard Jiang Xingjun say this, she seemed to be back in the past. She was no longer polite and looked playful.
"Then I don't care!"
"None of your business, just go and talk!" Jiang Xingjun waved his hands at the two of them.
Jiang Lanlan pulled Su Xiaoxiao into the yard, and Jiang Xingjun began to move things into Jiang Lanlan's house neatly.
"Are you home alone?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.
"And my mother-in-law is sleeping in the house! I'll call her over right away."
Jiang Lanlan asked Su Xiaoxiao to wait for her in the yard, and she ran to Wu's room.
Soon, Jiang Lanlan came back, and Mrs. Wu also walked out of the house with a smile on her face.
"Oh, I didn't know someone from my wife's family was coming. I'm sorry I didn't entertain them well enough!"
