Three days later, Jiang Xiangru took the initiative to call Zhao Xiaorui, and the two met again and came to Macau together. But this time Jiang Xiangru learned her lesson. She greeted Xu Nianyi in advance, saying that she was going to the suburbs, and activated the international roaming service on her mobile phone, so that she would not worry that Xu Nianyi would not be able to find her. Same as the previous two times, Jiang Xiangru once again relied on her good luck to kill the Quartet. When she was released, she had a check of more than three million yuan in her arms. The difference from the previous two times was that this time she was no longer as worried as before, and accepted Zhao Xiaorui's check very calmly.
When she came out from **, Zhao Xiaorui said to Jiang Xiangru: "Aunt Xiang, your luck is really great. I have won several million with you these two times. You are really my lucky star!"
Jiang Xiangru smiled, "I don't dare to come again, if one day I run out of good luck, I will lose!"
"Of course gambling means winning and losing. People can always see the smile of the winner, but no one can see the tears of the loser."
Jiang Xiangru sighed, "Yeah, so I think enough is enough, and I won't come to this place in the future."
Zhao Xiaorui's face froze for a moment, and then she smiled apologetically, "It's okay, anyway, the money you won these few times is enough for you to spend for a while."
"I didn't spend the money for myself. I wanted to use it as a dowry for Nian Yi. If I counted on my family, I guess Nian Yi would definitely get married naked."
"Isn't it? Uncle Xu is too honest, right? Even if you are selfless, you have to think about your family!"
"Forget it, forget it, I'll be upset when I mention him!" Jiang Xiangru said with some annoyance: "The only wrong thing I did in my life was marrying him, an official fan!"
When Zhao Xiaorui heard this, an imperceptible sneer flashed in his eyes.
"Aunt Xiang, as women, we must not wrong ourselves. If men are not nice to us, then we should treat ourselves better. If you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me, and treat me as your own." Daughter is fine!"
Jiang Xiangru was deeply moved by Zhao Xiaorui's words. She took Zhao Xiaorui's hand and said emotionally: "Xiaorui, Aunt Xiang only reads such a daughter, and you will be my daughter in the future. If there is anything I need to help you in Xiahai Just look for me, I will help you no matter how hard I die!

Xu Nianyi found that her mother's whereabouts have become more and more strange recently. She often goes out for a day, and every time she says to go to the suburbs to relax. Once she said that she wanted to go to her, but she firmly refused, saying that it was inconvenient to stay at a friend's house. , and then hung up the phone immediately.
She thought of a very serious question, did her mother have an affair
Finally got an opportunity today, she stopped Jiang Xiangru, forced her to sit on the sofa in the living room, and asked solemnly: "Mom, tell me the truth, what are you doing these days?"
"I didn't do anything, I'm still the same, go out to play cards, go to the suburbs—"
"You didn't go to the suburbs," Xu Nianyi interrupted Jiang Xiangru, "Just tell me the truth, no matter what you did, I won't tell Dad."
Jiang Xiangru froze for a moment, "You stinky girl, do you suspect that I have a man outside?"
"Isn't it?" Xu Nianyi asked, "Look at your current work and rest time. Every day after I wake up, I can't see you. I used to make breakfast for me, but now I eat the leftovers from the night before every day. , look at the flowers and plants in the garden, all that can die have already died, you still say to go to the suburbs to relax?"
Jiang Xiangru suddenly laughed, "You stinky girl, do you really think that mom is looking for wild men outside? Is mom like that?"
Xu Nian stared at Jiang Xiangru for a while, but he did not find any signs of lying on her face.
Did I really guess wrong
"Then tell me, what are you doing these days? Why are you always in a hurry?"
Jiang Xiangru cleared her throat and said the excuse she had thought up a long time ago.
"I'm studying finance with a friend now, buying some futures stocks or something, that's how I earned the money I gave you last time."
"Isn't it?" Xu Nianyi exclaimed, "Why did you do that? I heard that many scammers are cheating money in the name of speculating in futures recently, especially the middle-aged and elderly people are deceived the most. You But don't fall for it!"
Jiang Xiangru smiled and waved her hands, "Don't worry girl, I'm also a student of economics, can I still be deceived?"
Xu Nianyi nodded suspiciously, "Well, you'd better be careful, our family is not short of money, and you don't need to work hard to make money."
"You are the only one who thinks that our family is not short of money!" Jiang Xiangru said displeasedly: "Look at your father, he gave me a salary of 5,000 yuan a month, plus my pension, the whole family will pay for a month. You can’t even earn 10,000 yuan, so it’s not short of money? Look at others, a department-level cadre has a better life than ours, right?”
"Mom—" Xu Nian persuaded earnestly: "You can't let my father be corrupt, can you? Besides, our family doesn't need a house or a car. This little money is enough for us to spend!"
Jiang Xiangru raised her hand and made a stop gesture, "Stop! I don't want to hear it anymore! How old are you this year? You will remarry in two years. I can't even get a decent dowry, can I? Anyway, this matter You don't need to persuade me, this time I will make my own decisions, and I won't listen to anyone's words!"
Xu Nianyi sighed helplessly, "Well, anyway, as long as you feel sure, I have reservations."
Jiang Xiangru smiled again, "Nian Yi, don't even think about it, your father has been like this for so many years, if I don't earn some money to make a dowry for you, you will be looked down upon when you arrive at your in-law's house! "
"Mom—" Xu Nian shook Jiang Xiangru's shoulders, "I can't find a child from a poor family? That way people won't look down on me, right?"
"Mom doesn't object to whoever you find, as long as you like it, but you think your father will let you marry a poor boy? He has long planned to use you for a political marriage!"
"Impossible, Dad said, I decide my own feelings, and he doesn't interfere."
Jiang Xiangru snorted coldly, "Do you believe his nonsense? He himself is the beneficiary of a political marriage. If it weren't for your grandfather's high position and power, he would have married me, a woman who is five years older than him?"
"Mom, are you a little extreme? How can I say that I am also his biological daughter, and he will not treat me as a tool for marriage."
"Just wait and see, if he really dares to do this, even if I try my best, I won't let him succeed!"
"Mom, save your old life and enjoy it, you don't need to fight for me!" Xu Nian smiled and hugged Jiang Xiangru.

Ding Rui stood up in front of Lu Jingcheng, wiped off the suspicious white liquid from the corner of her mouth, her eyes showed a hint of charm, "My Mr. Lu, are you happy?"
Lu Jingcheng snorted, pulled up his trousers, and asked indifferently, "What's going on with Jiang Xiangru? Did you gain anything?"
A trace of displeasure flashed across Ding Rui's face, but it was quickly replaced by a bright smile, "With Mr. Lu's strategizing, how could I not gain anything! I learned from Jiang Xiangru that her relationship with Xu Rongsheng is like It broke up a long time ago, according to her, they have been separated for a long time, and now Jiang Xiangru is a full-fledged resentful woman."
"Oh? This is a little unexpected." Lu Jingcheng said softly, "It seems that the Xu family has a lot of stories!"
"Indeed, there are many stories about the Xu family. Xu Rongsheng didn't care about Jiang Xiangru. The two had their own lives. Now they are only maintaining the harmony on the surface. In fact, as long as there is a little external force, their marriage will fall apart. Mr. Lu, are you sure?" How about doing this external force?"
With a cold look in Lu Jingcheng's eyes, he said coldly: "You just need to do what you are supposed to do. I will give you whatever I promise you. It's best not to ask about things you shouldn't ask. The more you know, the better. The faster you die."
