Chapter 22: Jiang Yuan: I Can Be Even More Excessive
“You… you’re talking nonsense!” Wang Xinyue trembled with anger, “There are plenty of people chasing me!”
Jiang Yuan met her angry gaze and grinned, “You have a piece of lettuce on your tooth.”
Wang Xinyue immediately covered her mouth.
The smile on Jiang Yuan’s lips deepened.
Cao Laoting secretly glared at Jiang Yuan, cursing in her heart: You little bitch, sharp-tongued!
Deng Rui, seeing Jiang Yuan leave Wang Xinyue speechless, felt extremely pleased.
However, in front of Cao Laoting and her husband, she couldn’t show it too obviously.
She pretended to scold, “Jiang Yuan, don’t be impolite.”
“Grandma, Auntie isn’t impolite.” A childish voice rang out, Zhan Zhan’s soft little face was solemn, “They were the ones who bullied Mom first!”
“That’s right, brother is right! Auntie is also right!” Momo echoed from the side, nodding her little head vigorously.
Cao Laoting didn’t want to argue with Jiang Yuan anymore, so she smoothly shifted the topic to Jiang Die’s dragon and phoenix twins.
“Jiang Die’s two children are truly sensible.”
Deng Rui responded with a smile, “It’s all because Xiao Die taught them well.”
“Jiang Die is working very hard to raise two children alone.” Cao Laoting stared at Jiang Die, calculation hidden in her eyes.
“When she goes out to find a partner, people will surely look down on her when they hear she has two children. It’s really not easy.”
Jiang Die listened quietly, without responding.
Deng Rui and Jiang Dashan exchanged glances.
Cao Laoting continued, “I watched Jiang Die grow up, and it pains me to see her live such a hard life!”
“Yes, I wonder how we can help her.” Cao Laoting’s husband, Wang Hui, chimed in.
Wang Xinyue: “You can help Sister Jiang Die find a partner.”
Cao Laoting’s eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands, “That makes sense. I have a cousin who is looking for a partner.”
Jiang Yuan’s family: “…”
So that was their plan?
Cao Laoting said enthusiastically, “My cousin is honest, good-looking, has a car and a house. The only drawback is that he’s divorced and has a son, but Jiang Die is also divorced with two children. He’s quite suitable for my cousin.”
Deng Rui had absolutely no desire to become relatives with Cao Laoting, so she didn’t say anything.
Jiang Dashan also remained silent.
Jiang Die, as the party involved, pursed her lips, her expression indifferent.
“Why aren’t you all speaking?” Cao Laoting said with a smile, “This is a great thing.”
Jiang Yuan suddenly spoke, “Aunt Cao, how old is your cousin?”
Deng Rui’s heart skipped a beat.
She didn’t want to think too badly of her daughter.
But Jiang Yuan’s behavior today was really suspicious.
She had uncharacteristically invited Jiang Die to her home for dinner. Was she cooperating with Cao Laoting to introduce someone to Jiang Die?
“My cousin is only about ten years older than Jiang Die.” Cao Laoting’s plump face was full of smiles, “As the saying goes, older men are more loving to their wives.”
Jiang Yuan: “Don’t say ‘about ten years older’, be more specific.”
Cao Laoting’s eyes flickered slightly, “Just over forty. Isn’t it said that men in their forties are like flowers?”
Jiang Yuan looked at her with a half-smile, “Then where did he buy his house?”
Cao Laoting: “He built a three-story villa in his hometown.”
Jiang Yuan: “What car did he buy?”
Cao Laoting: “He recently bought a Yadea electric scooter, the most expensive model in the shop.”
Jiang Yuan summarized: “Oh, so you mean he has a rural house, a broken electric scooter, and he’s almost twenty years older than my sister.”
It could be said she gave no face at all.
Deng Rui’s lifted heart finally settled.
Her daughter wasn’t as bad as she had thought.
After hearing Jiang Yuan’s words, Cao Laoting said irritably, “How can you call that a broken electric scooter? I bought the most expensive one in the shop, it cost several thousand!”
“Hahaha, you crack me up.” Jiang Yuan rolled her eyes, “With such conditions, you have the nerve to come to my house? What a pipe dream! My sister is so excellent, don’t try to introduce any trash.”
“Excellent, my foot.” Cao Laoting sneered, “Which good girl gets pregnant before marriage?”
“She had two children and no man in sight. Did she sleep with too many men? Do you even know who the father of the children is!”
Deng Rui suddenly stood up, furious, “Cao Laoting!”
Cao Laoting’s expression changed slightly, and she covered her mouth, realizing she had said the wrong thing.
“Deng Rui, good sister, I didn’t mean it like that. Please don’t misunderstand!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a cup of water was splashed directly onto her face.
Jiang Yuan’s slender fingers held the cup, her voice cold, her eyes filled with chill, “Your mouth is so dirty, it needs a wash.”
Cao Laoting stood up, startled.
Wang Xinyue scolded, “Jiang Yuan, you’ve gone too far!”
“This is too far?” A sarcastic arc appeared on Jiang Yuan’s lips, “If you don’t leave now, I can get even more excessive.”
After speaking, she looked at Lanmei.
The smart cat didn’t need its owner to speak.
Lanmei understood Jiang Yuan’s meaning immediately. The blue crystal-like eyes narrowed, and its hind legs pushed off fiercely—
The cat drew a beautiful arc in the air, accurately leaping into its owner’s arms.
Jiang Yuan held the fluffy ball and showed Cao Laoting a friendly smile.
“Aunt Cao, my little cat accidentally peed on you this afternoon. Perhaps it will accidentally pee on your face later.”
Cao Laoting’s face immediately turned ugly.
She gritted her teeth hatefully and reluctantly took her husband and daughter away.
Jiang Yuan walked to the door and watched the three of them leave dejectedly, then called out, “Aunt Cao, my little cat always welcomes you.”
After she spoke, Cao Laoting walked even faster, almost falling flat on her face.
Jiang Yuan closed the door and looked at Jiang Die, worry hidden between her brows, “Sister, Cao Laoting is talking nonsense. Don’t listen to her.”
“I know.” Jiang Die smiled, “It’s good that Yuan Yuan was here today.”
“Yes, she said what I couldn’t say.” Deng Rui agreed and nodded, “Tonight, she is my voice.”
“I’ve been unhappy with her for a long time.” Jiang Yuan frowned.
It was Cao Laoting’s big mouth that spread the news of Jiang Die’s premarital pregnancy, and she even exaggerated and fabricated stories, ruining Jiang Die’s reputation.
Zhan Zhan and Momo quietly looked at Jiang Yuan, big questions in their little heads.
Why has the vicious aunt become so nice now?
Not only the two little ones were thinking about this, but Jiang Die and Deng Rui also couldn’t figure it out.
Jiang Yuan, as the party involved, didn’t go home immediately after sending her sister and family of three off. Instead, she greeted the small animals downstairs in the residential community.
The appearance of the mole man made her vigilant.
Jiang Yuan asked the small animals to pay attention to Jiang Die’s family.
If any bad people try to bully them, they must help.
Having received Jiang Yuan’s favor, the small animals were ready to pat their chests and guarantee the mission completion.
Jiang Yuan finally went home with peace of mind.
Before going to bed, she set her alarm clock for going out tomorrow to avoid missing an appointment.
Blue Bay Park is about three kilometers from Jiang Yuan’s home. She was afraid of traffic jams on Sunday and planned to use Deng Rui’s electric scooter.
“Mom, where’s your car key? I need to go out.”
“You’re going out on the electric scooter?” Deng Rui was very surprised, “Aren’t you a pampered little princess who can only travel in a BMW?”
