Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Chapter 107 You can call the police

A little girl who came with the woman objected, "How can you talk like that? My aunt is very good to Brother Jiang Chen. She has never favored my cousins. Everyone eats and dresses the same."

The little girl stood up for her aunt and glared angrily at Bai Jing.

Bai Jing smiled at her, "Brother Jiang Chen, ha, how can you be so clear about it? Isn't he your cousin? Or do you have some other thoughts about Comrade Jiang Chen?" She directly exposed her little secret.

"Whether it's good or bad is not for outsiders to judge. Why not ask the person involved? With her attitude, I don't think she can be that good."

Seeing her defend him, Jiang Chen was deeply moved, because since he returned to that home, this was the first person who had believed in him and stood up for him like this.

Even his own father never stood up for him or spoke up for him.

But he was a man too. How could he let a young girl stand in front of him? He already felt guilty that she had shielded him from a bullet before, and he couldn't let her stand in front of him again because of his family affairs.

Jiang Chen stood up and pulled Bai Jing behind him. "Is there something you need? If not, don't disturb our meal." His tone was cold, and he was indifferent and distant towards the two people in front of him.

At least he still retained a shred of kindness towards strangers.

"Brother Jiang Chen, how could you do this? Auntie was just worried about you, why are you being so fierce?" The little girl looked bewildered and terrified. Brother Jiang Chen had changed.

He wouldn't have talked to himself like that before.

"Do I know you? Please call me Jiang Chen or Comrade Jiang Chen. My mother only gave birth to me; I have no other brothers or sisters." Jiang Chen's voice turned cold, showing no mercy to the young girl.

Jiang Chen's stepmother could also see that this ungrateful wretch had no intention of giving her face in public.

She couldn't afford to lose face. She had come back to those two old men's house to retrieve something, but unexpectedly, she couldn't even get in the door.

"Alright, Shuyu, stop talking. Your cousin Jiang Chen has friends here, so it's best not to talk about family matters outside. Aren't you hungry? Come on, Auntie will give you some meat." Stepmother Mi Xiao'e pulled her niece back from about to explode, afraid that she would ruin her plans.

"Xiao Chen, you and your friend eat first. We can talk about anything else when we get home. I have to stay here for a few days. After we finish eating, I'll go stay with your grandfather for a couple of days. After you finish eating, go home and wait for us," Mi Xiao'e said shamelessly to Jiang Chen.

Haha, if Bai Jing hadn't been given a second chance at life, she would really think that what the auntie said was right.

But she implied in her words that she was an outsider and told Jiang Chen to be patient and not embarrass himself in front of outsiders.

Not a single word she said was in Jiang Chen's best interest or for his sake. What, did she intend to manipulate him again when they got home?

Bai Jing wouldn't give her that chance. "If I remember correctly, Comrade Jiang's maternal grandfather's family is the family of your husband's ex-wife, right? What, does the one who came later want to go and cause trouble at the ex-wife's house?"

"Or are you trying to show off how much you, as a stepmother, mean to Comrade Jiang Chen?"

It has to be said that Bai Jing really understands Mi Xiao'e's psychology. This person really does have such thoughts, and this isn't the first time she's stayed at Jiang Chen's maternal home.

However, no one had thought that way before, and the neighbors only thought that she was doing a good job as a stepmother and that she had gained the approval of the previous family.

But what is the truth?
Is it really as others perceive it to be?

Jiang Chen has more authority to speak on this.

"No need, we don't have all our things at home, and we have nowhere to sleep. There are only some things left in Grandpa and Grandma's room. Didn't you take everything else?" Jiang Chen's words shocked everyone.

What do you mean?
A perfectly good home has been emptied out?
"Comrade Jiang, was your house burgled? I'm a police officer, you can call the police." Bai Jing's voice rang out after Jiang Chen finished speaking.

Her words shocked everyone; no one expected that this young girl would actually be a police officer.

Jiang Chen smiled at her, but before he could speak, Mi Xiao'e couldn't hold back anymore.

"Young lady, don't talk nonsense. We're all family. What's wrong with taking a few things? You're a policeman, do you think you can interfere in other people's business?" She was scared.

Yes, Mi Xiao'e was scared. She was afraid that what she had done before would be discovered, and she was also afraid that what she had done would be known to everyone, since it was very disgraceful.

"Xiao Chen, this is all a family matter. Look at this." Finally, she turned her gaze to Jiang Chen. "If your father knew, he wouldn't want outsiders to know about family matters either."

This is because they were afraid they couldn't outmaneuver Jiang Chen, so they decided to bring Jiang Chen's father into the picture.

However, Bai Jing didn't rush to express her opinion; she wanted to see what Jiang Chen thought.

After all, it's his family. If he doesn't want to pursue the matter, it's really not appropriate for her, as an outsider, to say anything.

However, her impression of him will still be negatively affected, since no one likes their partner to be someone who is difficult to understand.

Jiang Chen looked at Mi Xiao'e with a cold face, "I believe my grandparents would not want their things to fall into other people's hands either. If Aunt Mi has the time, it would be better to return the things, after all, they are things they have cherished all their lives."

The words were spoken softly, but the meaning was clear: the item was to be returned.

"Xiao Chen." Mi Xiao'e never expected that Jiang Chen would dare to resist. After all, for so many years, whenever Jiang Huaifang was mentioned, he would remain silent.

What's wrong with me today?
So she turned her gaze to Bai Jing, who was standing to the side, and thought to herself, it must be because of her, otherwise why would someone who hadn’t resisted for so many years refute her in public?

"Needless to say, I believe he doesn't want to bear the infamy of using his deceased wife's wealth to support his future wife." Jiang Chen didn't care before, after all, his grandfather's most precious possessions had long been hidden away.

The things left at home were what my grandfather had prepared for his return to the Jiang family; he had long been mentally prepared to let them take them.

He just didn't expect that Bai Jing would stand up for him and expose his years of scheming.

"You." Mi Xiao'e never expected him to be so disrespectful to her. But she had already sold those things, and even if she couldn't sell them, she had given them away. Now, how could she possibly get them back?

"Xiao Chen, you know our family's situation. We've already helped them with all the things we've given. This will put your dad in a difficult position." Helpless, she had no choice but to appeal to his emotions, since Jiang Chen cared a lot about his father's opinion.

Well, she knew he was a wolf cub, an ungrateful brat. If it weren't for his high income, she would have had Old Jiang kick him out of the house long ago.

Hmph, you ingrate.

"You know how hard your dad works, Xiaochen. Let's just let this go. You and your friend have dinner first, and we can talk about it when we get home." Right now, she could only try to calm him down.

Bai Jing knew Jiang Chen's personality and knew that he had been persuaded. Just as she was about to speak, Jiang Chen stopped her.

"Okay, let's talk about it when we get home."
