Shu Xiaoyun had expected it well before, but the Jiang family really moved their thoughts.
That evening, Jiang Rui was walking in a small park near Lianhua Street after dinner, when she was suddenly stopped by a middle-aged man.
This person is Shumanman's biological father Jiang Lei. He should be in his forties, but he looks much older than Shu Xiaoyun. He is now looking at Jiang Rui with love and excitement.
"Manman, I'm dad, don't you remember me?"
The exaggerated and deliberate tone of voice made Jiang Rui frown, but she didn't speak.
"Your mother is so cruel. She took you away for six years. Manman, father and grandma miss you very much." Jiang Lei continued to play cheap emotional cards.
Jiang Rui didn't want to waste time on such a person, and wanted to solve the trouble once and for all, and said, "If you talk here, your mother might see it. Let's go over there." She pointed to a small bamboo forest.
"Okay." Seeing her being fooled, Jiang Lei felt proud.
If he said that he had never thought about his ex-wife and daughter all these years, it would be false, after all, they were his own children. But that little miss, how can he resist his desire for his son
It wasn't until now that he had fallen hard on another woman, and then he remembered how good Shu Xiaoyun was. More importantly, Shu Xiaoyun had an old house in his hands. He got news from elsewhere that in two years, this piece of land was likely to be demolished. , the amount of compensation is at least seven figures. What are the two women's families doing with so much money? There is also the possibility of being deceived by others. As their ex-husband and father, he is of course obliged to take good care of the money for them.
And he chose to approach his daughter first, instead of Shu Xiaoyun, because she was younger and better coaxed. Sure enough, after only saying two words, I felt relieved.
Jiang Lei almost laughed out loud as he imagined the days when he was free and unrestrained after he got the money.
At that time, if Shu Xiaoyun is willing to give him another son, he will generously let her stay in Jiang's house. If she is not willing, hmph, anyway, a yellow-faced woman can go wherever she likes to go. If she has money, she is afraid that she will not be young and beautiful. The woman is willing to be with him
As for this daughter... He originally thought that she wouldn't live long, but he didn't expect to grow to be so big and look good. Jiang Lei looked at her as if he had seen a large betrothal gift.
The two walked into the small bamboo forest one after the other, Jiang Rui moved her fingers slightly, and set up a barrier around it so that others could not see or hear the movement here, and then slowly turned around.
Jiang Lei didn't notice the difference at all, and continued his performance: "Dad didn't want to divorce back then, but your mother didn't know why, she had to leave, and she took you away. You don't know how much your father misses you—"
"But I don't miss you at all." Jiang Rui interrupted him coldly.
Jiang Lei froze for a while, only taking it as a child's tantrum, and didn't take it to heart. Looking at the seven-digit demolition fee, he now has unprecedented patience with Shu Xiaoyun and his daughter who doesn't love him much.
"Dad knows that you are angry with your father. It's my fault that I haven't come to see you for so many years. Tell me, how can you forgive your father?"
"I heard that you have always wanted to have a son?" Jiang Rui asked without answering.
Jiang Lei hurriedly said: "Dad wants to give you a younger brother, but you don't know, it's all for you, you say that you are a girl, you will marry in the future, and your parents don't have a brother. What if you are bullied? With a younger brother, I can support you in the future."
Jiang Rui nodded and said, "Then I want to thank you for thinking about me."
Jiang Lei was overjoyed, and was about to speak, when she heard her say again: "But I don't want any younger brother, and if I want my forgiveness, why don't you cut off your descendants?"
Jiang Lei was stunned for a moment, and then he raised his head in anger.
In his life, he first hated Shu Xiaoyun for not giving him a son, and then hated his newly married wife for cuckolding him. Because of two failed marriages, some people nearby made fun of him secretly, saying that he did not have a son, and the Jiang family was about to end in his generation.
This has become his taboo, and anyone who dares to mention it will be hated by him. In his eyes, his daughter was already dispensable. He just coaxed in a good voice, but for the sake of money, how could he tolerate her being so presumptuous
"You—" Jiang Lei's face suddenly turned hideous, and he was about to hit him with a wave, but when he reached halfway, he found that he couldn't move.
He struggled hard, but the whole person was like a sect, only his eyes could turn, he was puzzled, then fearful, and when he saw the girl in front of him, he said viciously: "Look what! Father!"
Jiang Rui clapped her hands as if playing ashes, and said slowly, "Why call someone else, I can help you, and if you agree to cut off your descendants, how can you not do it?"
Doesn't his family have a throne to inherit? Then she made him a eunuch and guarded the throne for the rest of her life.
"What are you going to do? You little bitch, you lose money! Have the same virtue as your lowly mother!" Jiang Lei struggled hard, and the unknown fear made him yell.
Jiang Rui's face was cold, and she stopped talking nonsense. She used a little magic to shut him up, and then kicked him to the ground.
Jiang Lei blushed and had a thick neck, his mouth opened and closed, and it seemed that he was still swearing.
He couldn't hear it anyway, so Jiang Rui ignored it and slowly stretched out two fingers, pointing between his legs, making a scissors to cut something.
Jiang Lei howled silently in pain, the blue veins on his face burst out, his eyes were splitting, his nose and tears flowed all over his face, and soon his pants were wet, and there was a smell of urine.
His lifeblood is still there, and there is no damage in the slightest from the outside, but this man is already useless.
The reason why he despises women so much and doesn't take his daughter's life seriously is because he has grown something? If she made his things a decoration, I wonder if he could be so arrogant and domineering
Jiang Rui stopped looking at Jiang Lei's ugliness, and gave him a hint before leaving to make him forget what happened just now, and after that, as long as he thought of Shu Xiaoyun and Shu Manman, the place would be extremely painful. , Thinking about it a few more times will always make him remember and stop thinking about coveting Shu Xiaoyun's property.
It didn't take long for Shu Xiaoyun to hear from others that Jiang Lei seemed to have some kind of strange illness, and he sought medical treatment everywhere, and his temper became very irritable, disturbing the family's peace.
She was worried that he would come to trouble her and her daughter. After a while, she heard that he had a fight with someone and broke his leg. Peace of mind.
Jiang Rui had already left this matter behind. After visiting Yan's house that day, Yan Zhao was going to go to the sea market with her to play, but the plan had to be canceled due to a typhoon.
Although the two-month vacation is a long time to say, the real experience is just a blink of an eye, and it is the September school season again.
From the second year to the third year of high school, the school was afraid that they would go crazy in the summer vacation and return all the content they had learned before to the teacher. Therefore, before the vacation, they notified various places.
Before many people's hearts can be recovered, they took the test for two days. The final results came out. The good students will not forget to study, and the scores are still good. The poor students are always at the bottom, and there is no change. Fell off.
Among the students who were going backwards, there was one person who stood out in particular, and that was the former thorn-headed Yan Zhao.
He actually got the 19th place in the exam this time. To be honest, the head teacher, Mr. Lin, couldn't believe it after he counted the good results.
Teachers of the same year are in the same office, and when they talk about their grades, they will inevitably talk about him.
"Lao Lin, Yan Zhao in your class is good this time. The auxiliary line is added to the last big question in mathematics. Only three people in two classes are correct. He is one of them. Although the final result is wrong, his thinking is complete. Seeing that he didn't like to study very much before, he has become enlightened recently, and he has done all the summer homework he handed in. He is still very careless, and boys always have this problem. "
The physics teacher also said: "That Yan Zhao is the one who always sleeps on his stomach in class, right? I also did my homework. I looked at it specially. I did it myself, and I didn't copy the answer."
Seeing the math teacher and the physics teacher boasting, the English teacher has something to say, "Why does it seem that I have learned about science, but I can't understand English? Cloze 20 blanks and 15 mistakes, I think he is blind with his eyes closed. written."
After listening to Mr. Lin, he picked up the report card and glanced at it again. Sure enough, his English was 120 points, not counting speaking and listening. He passed 72 points, so he got a pitiful 56 points. , you can rank in the top 15 of the class.
"No, I have to call and talk to his parents and ask him to do more in English. If he can't get the results of the college entrance examination in the future, people will say that my English is holding back the students." The English teacher said to himself , take out the memo, and write it down.
Other teachers don't know, but as the head teacher, Teacher Lin knows that Yan Zhaoneng's changes have nothing to do with his parents, mostly because of the girl at the same table.
Although Fengcheng No. 12 Middle School does not explicitly prohibit puppy love, it is definitely not recommended. Those two students usually don't do anything out of the ordinary in school, but children of this age always like to join in the fun and make fun, and the rest of the students coax once or twice. Teacher Lin, as a past person, naturally knows it well.
Because one of the two scores was at the front of the class, and the other had to be counted from the back. He was worried that it would affect the girl's grades. He called the parents to hint, but the parents were very open-minded and said that as long as the child was happy, it would be fine.
Parents have said so, as a teacher, there is no need for him to be this villain, but usually he can't avoid paying more attention.
He knew that Yan Zhao used to ride a bicycle, and he rode his two wheels like a small whirlwind, which made people feel scared. Now he honestly took the bus with the girl, and it seemed that he went there every day. Pick up the girl and send it back at night. Anyone who has seen him look fierce when fighting, I'm afraid no one would have expected that the big boy who looked fierce, had such a caring side.
And that girl, who looked soft and weak, had surprising energy and patience. Others respected Yan Zhao, but she took him up.
The two children were silent, but Teacher Lin could see that they were holding hands and marching towards a better future for both of them.
Although he is an adult, although he is an elder, in addition to his blessings, he also has some admiration for them. After all, not everyone has such courage and determination.
Many people saw Yan Zhao's change, but the two parties actually did not do anything for it.
Jiang Rui knew that Yan Zhao's grades were not good, he didn't like to study, and he always slept in class. She didn't ask him to listen to the class or do his homework well, and she never asked him to make up for him.
But the two were always inseparable. She listened to the class in class, and Yan Zhao went to sleep at the beginning, then held her hand or watched her in a daze, and then listened to her ears from time to time, raised a pen and wrote a few words, this process did not happen. how long.
The same is true of homework. Originally, she wrote him to read, and then she wrote him to write at will. Later, the two would discuss and study a topic for a long time.
Yan Zhao was not stupid at first, but he was impatient to learn. Now, in such an unconscious process, his grades have improved little by little.
Affected by him, Lin Hang and Wang Xiaodong, who were originally condescending, have now begun to put effort into their studies.
After the results of the thorough examination were announced, Lin Hang grabbed Yan Zhao and said, "Brother Zhao, it's not easy. Now you are also a good student in the top 20 in your class. The hard days are over, do you want to treat yourself to celebrate?"
"Please give me some wool." Yan Zhao curled the corners of his mouth impatiently. He never cared whether others said he was a good student or a bad boy, and it didn't matter whether his grades were good or bad. Lin Hangxing said this as if he had worked hard to improve. , made him unhappy.
Jiang Rui joked: "If you are a guest, don't forget to bring me."
Yan Zhaozheng was about to attack Lin Hang. Hearing what she said, he immediately asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Lin Hang shook his head when he saw this discriminatory treatment. After so long, he was forced to eat a few mouthfuls of fresh dog food every day, and he felt very sad.
Jiang Rui and Yan Zhao discussed the newly opened snack shop near the school for a while, and suddenly whispered, "You are amazing this time, you have improved by nine places compared to the final exam."
Although what she said was the same thing that Lin Hang mentioned just now, but Yan Zhao listened, she only felt happy in her heart, and she made a nonchalant expression on her face, "What's the matter."
Jiang Rui added: "I think if we keep it up, the two of us can go to the same university."
Yan Zhao paused and turned to look into her eyes, "Do you think I can do it?"
"Why not?" Jiang Rui also looked at him and asked softly, "Don't you think we would continue to go to the same school?"
Yan Zhaolue turned his eyes away with a guilty conscience, he really didn't think about it.
His original plan was that no matter where she went to go to college, he would go to the same city with her, but he never thought about going to the same college, because the grades between the two were too far apart, and although he has improved now, in fact He didn't put much thought into it. He only studied with her, not for the improvement of his grades.
Jiang Rui knew this. Yan Zhao's heart is not on learning. With his current learning attitude, it is actually somewhat difficult to move on. After all, there is a big gap between the difficulty of raising the ranking from 40th to 20th, and from 20th to 10th. So now she's not going to let him go any further, she wants to give him a little temptation, a little pressure, and let him take the initiative.
She looked at him and said disappointedly, "Do you really want to be with me?"
Yan Zhao's heart was tense, and he said urgently: "Think, why don't you want to!" He took Jiang Rui's hand, a little helpless, and said cautiously: "You, don't be sad."
Jiang Rui shook him back, "It was a little bit just now, but now I'm not sad."
Yan Zhao quickly expressed his determination: "From today onwards, I will listen to the class and do my homework well, so that I won't make you sad in the future."
Jiang Rui nodded with a smile, "Well, I believe you."
The two people in the back row witnessed the whole process and were dumbfounded. They wanted to ask, where did the handsome and cool brother Zhao go? When the girlfriend in front of her said something, she hurriedly wagged her tail and agreed, is it the brother Zhao they know
As for the good students who can easily tame Brother Zhao, they can only bow their heads and shout in admiration.
When Yan Zhao saw this, he calmed down, looked around, suddenly raised the book in his hand to cover it, quickly leaned over and pecked her lips, then coughed dryly, and backed away as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Rui touched her lower lip and looked at him with a slight frown, "You're eating candy again."
Since the previous few times, he now carries fruit candy with him. The greatest joy every day is to finish the candy himself, kiss her unexpectedly, and let her guess what flavor he eats.
Yan Zhao was afraid that she would talk about him, so he tried to change the subject and took the initiative to answer, "This time it's mangosteen, what do you think?"
"The taste is alright, but be careful of tooth decay."
"Don't worry, it won't." Yan Zhao said to himself.
Jiang Rui only shook his head.
From this day on, everyone could see that Yan Zhao's change was more obvious. Regarding his studies, he is no longer as careless as before, and finally has the appearance of a senior in high school.
In activities other than study, he is also more active than before, whether it is the annual basketball game or the school sports meeting, he can be seen.
Others don't know, they think he has changed his mind, only the classmates in the third and eighth class of high school know that he is so hard-working because of a word from his girlfriend.
Lin Hang and Wang Xiaodong knew more in detail. Brother Zhao, who originally disdained playing grade basketball games, rolled up his sleeves to play because a good student inadvertently praised the captain of the seventh class as being handsome. The ball, successfully played the seventh class, and then came back with a handsome and tugging face.
As for participating in the sports meeting, the reason is even simpler. Because the classmates were not active and the number of participants was not enough, the sports committee participated in three events by one person. The good students said that they were really responsible, so Brother Zhao went to sign up.
Other students said that the power of love is really great. In this regard, Lin Hang just wanted to say that the jealousy of men is really terrible.
In the middle and late stages of high school, Yan Zhao's reputation in Fengcheng No. 12 Middle School was getting higher and higher. After all, he used to attract a group of girls with just one face. Now he is not only handsome, his grades are good, he is even better at playing basketball, and he has money at home. He is a perfect school girl. When a new high school girl mentions him, her face is red and her chest is slammed. Bang.
It's a pity that he has a girlfriend, and his girlfriend's grades are better than him, she is also beautiful, she always smiles sweetly, even if she is the same sex, it is difficult to hate her.
However, it is said that the school grass used to have poor grades and liked to fight, and it became as good as it is now because of the good girlfriend.
The newly enrolled students heard the story of the two of them from the senior and senior of the second and third grades, and they held their chests with envy. Until several years after graduating from this senior year, there were still legends of the two of them on the campus of Fengcheng No. 12 Middle School.
This is all a matter of later. The tense year of high school has passed quickly, and another summer vacation is coming, which means that they are about to leave the school they have studied together for three years and go to their respective futures.
Jiang Rui did well in the college entrance examination, and Yan Zhao performed exceptionally well. The two were admitted to the same famous school in the provincial capital as they wished. Wang Xiaodong was also admitted to a three-level college in the province, and Lin Hang's family contacted foreign universities for him.
Last summer, I said that I would go to the sea market to see the sea, but because of the typhoon, I didn’t make it. After the results came out this time, a few young people set off with simple luggage.
They played happily for two days. On the third day, they said they were going to go offshore for diving. Jiang Rui had no interest and stayed in the seaside house.
The three of them seemed to be playing crazy, and they didn't know how to come back when it got dark. Jiang Rui went to the balcony and looked around. The sea and the beach were all dark, and no one could be seen. There was only the sound of the surging waves, and nothing else. movement.
She was not afraid of the dark, but worried that they had an accident. She walked out of the villa, turned on the flashlight, and walked down the beach step by step along the wooden steps. The soft sand seeped into the shoes at once, she simply took off the shoes, held it in one hand, and walked slowly on the beach with bare feet.
Just after turning around a coconut grove, many star-like fireworks suddenly flickered in the dark night sky, and a string of flames spread quickly on the beach, and soon drew a big heart shape, a familiar figure stood stiffly. The love is in the center, and the two people on the side are not afraid to coax there.
Jiang Rui stopped.
The two looked at each other in the flickering light, and finally Yan Zhao couldn't hold it, he coughed uncomfortably, and walked towards her.
Although the light was not bright, Jiang Rui could see that his face and neck were all red, and the hands on his side were clenching and loosening, clenching and loosening.
She also walked towards him, stepping in before he stepped out of the heart-shaped candle, and the two were surrounded.
Yan Zhao looked at her with bright eyes and opened his mouth to speak.
"Kiss her! Kiss her!" Lin Hang and Wang Xiaodong suddenly began to shout.
Yan Zhao choked, turned his head and glared at them viciously, the two of them received his gaze in the dark and shut up obediently.
He turned around, cleared his throat, and said, "I—"
"Hold up! Hold up!" The two people, who were afraid that the world would not be in chaos, shouted again.
Yan Zhao's brows jumped. He could see that the two were trying to make him feel better. He took a deep breath and whispered to Jiang Rui to wait a moment. He suddenly turned his head and rushed out like a tiger.
"Wow, Brother Zhao is angry—" The two quickly turned their heads and ran away.
Yan Zhao was holding his breath now, how could they run away easily, one by one caught a few punches, and there were bursts of howls and howls on the beach.
After the lesson was over, he ran back again. When he came to Jiang Rui, the domineering momentum of the beating just now disappeared, and his face began to turn red again. The whole person looked irritable, humming for a long time, and then asked dryly: " Have you had dinner?"
Jiang Rui waited for a long time for such a sentence to come out, and couldn't help but smile: "You're spending a lot of time trying to tell me this?"
"And..." He said several times in a row, but Jiang Rui didn't rush, just waited.
Yan Zhao finally had enough emotions, looked up at her and looked away, trying his best to pretend that nothing had happened, but only stammered, "I-I want to marry you, do you agree?"
Jiang Rui raised her eyebrows slightly, "Neither of us are married yet."
"You can get engaged first!" Yan Zhao said hastily, holding her hand unconsciously.
Seeing him like this, she couldn't help but tease and asked with a smile, "If I don't agree, are you going to cry?"
"No!" Yan Zhao pursed the corners of his mouth, holding her hands with both hands, as if she was afraid that she would run away, "If you don't agree... I'll ask you once a day if you agree!"
It's really promising, Jiang Rui thought, and nodded with a smile.
Yan Zhao's whole face lit up, looking at her at a loss, forgetting what to do next.
"Then... that's it?" Jiang Rui asked.
He just regained his senses, holding her shoulders with both hands, his face slowly approaching, and muttering: "And this..."
He's already very skilled at kissing, and he's not as flustered as before.
This was another sweet kiss, but the taste was different from what she had tasted before. Jiang Rui raised her head and was distracted thinking about the smell, she heard a snort from the person in front of her, released her, and covered her cheek with one hand, Brows furrowed.
"What's wrong?"
Yan Zhao frowned, and seemed a little unbelievable and a little aggrieved, and said with a bit of pity: "Toothache..."
Jiang Rui: "..."
This is probably the true portrayal of joy and sorrow.
After the chaotic proposal, when they returned to Fengcheng, the two families sat together and got engaged.
When they got engaged, the two were only young adults, and even their parents were not sure they would last long.
But in this life, people around me come and go, joys and sorrows, only they never parted, and walked hand in hand to finish their whole life.
