After three years of marriage, she didn't go home? 70's Jiaojiao wants a divorce

Chapter 239 Good luck lies behind

Shen Qingqing promised to take the old man on a spring outing.

Unfortunately, she and Jiang Zhixun were busy with work, so the matter was put on hold.

By the time the promise was finally fulfilled, spring was almost over.

It was Shen Qingqing's birthday, and she and Jiang Zhixun were both on holiday. In the morning, they took the old man out for a trip and ate at a restaurant.

I took the old man home to rest at noon.

We decided to stay in the compound for dinner.

Jiang's mother ordered a birthday cake for Shen Qingqing and prepared a large table of dishes, making it almost as grand as celebrating the Chinese New Year.

When Yang's mother came to the Jiang family to discuss something, she saw this scene and thought that Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun had gotten their marriage certificate.

Upon asking, I learned that it was Shen Qingqing's birthday.

As a woman herself, Yang's mother both envied Shen Qingqing for being valued by her husband's family and admired Jiang's mother's magnanimity.

Not only did he raise Shen Qingqing, but he also helped her let go of her past grievances and turn the page on all unpleasant things.

This is not something everyone can do.

Such a grand event was organized to celebrate Shen Qingqing's birthday.

It's not an exaggeration to say that he treats Shen Qingqing like his own daughter.

Because of Yang Fen's actions, Jiang's mother never took the initiative to associate with the Yang family.

Even though they have known each other for decades.

They met on the road, and Yang's mother took the initiative to greet them, which led to a few casual words.

Jiang's mother was quite surprised when people came to visit today.

She thought that not getting too close to either family had become an unspoken agreement between the two families.

"Is something the matter?" Jiang's mother asked.

Yang's mother took out an invitation, "Xiao Fen is getting married next Sunday. Please join us and Qingqing for the wedding banquet."

Jiang's mother cursed inwardly, "I have to give money as a gift when I attend a wedding."

Why would she give that money to Yang Fen when she could do so many other things with it?

Out of politeness, I accepted the invitation.

With a forced smile, he said, "If I have time, I will definitely go, but Qingqing and Zhixun are busy with work, so I guess they won't be able to go."

No one mentioned it, but Yang's mother hadn't forgotten.

I feel incredibly embarrassed every time I think about it.

She didn't blame the Jiang family for their cold attitude; she only blamed herself for not disciplining her daughter properly, which led her to do something wrong.

The Jiang family didn't pursue the matter, which is already a great concession.

He said with a smile, "It's normal for young people to be busy with work. If they have time, they can go to banquets. If they don't, we can understand. Young people should prioritize their careers."

Jiang's mother nodded, "I'd like to congratulate you in advance."

Yang's mother smiled and agreed, "Now that our youngest daughter is married, her father and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

Jiang's mother: "Let her live a good life; good fortune is yet to come."

Don't let your mind wander and try to set your sights on Zhixun again.

Jiang's mother thought, "If I break the young couple up again, I will definitely not let Yang Fen off this time."

The dining table was laden with dishes, and a birthday cake sat on the coffee table in the living room.

Looks like it's time to eat.

Yang's mother could not stay any longer.

"You guys eat, I'm going back first."

Jiang's mother urged them to stay, saying, "Let's eat together; it'll be more lively with more people."

Yang's mother waved her hand, "I've already eaten. There are still many things to do at home, so I have to go back and keep an eye on things."

Jiang's mother looked understanding and said, "Arranging a wedding will take a lot of effort, so I won't keep you here."

“There’s no need to stay. We’re all in the same compound. I’ll come over and chat with you whenever I have time.”

With a wave of her hand, Yang's mother walked away with a smile.

After everyone had gone far away, Jiang's mother returned to the house and placed the invitation on the living room table.

He muttered under his breath, "Yang Fen is shameless. That handwriting is obviously hers. How dare she invite us?"

Jiang's father, "How did you know her handwriting?"

"Such ugly handwriting, if it wasn't her, then whose could it be?"

Jiang's mother looked disgusted. "I could just scatter some rice on a notebook and let the chickens peck at it; their handwriting would be better than hers!"

Father Jiang: "..."

Actually, Jiang's mother had seen Yang Fen's handwriting when she came to their house to do her homework before.

I used to think she was very neat and pretty, just like Yang Fen.

But now it looks ugly no matter how you look at it.

Jiang's mother snorted, "Your handwriting reflects your personality!"

Jiang's father sighed helplessly, "Stop talking about these trivial things and hurry up and eat. After you eat, you'll have cake. If we delay any longer, it will be dark by the time we finish the process."

Jiang's mother glared at the man, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's not like you're rushing to be reborn."

Jiang Zhixun coughed lightly, "Mom, say something nice."

Today is Qingqing's birthday. This whole reincarnation thing sounds weird.

Jiang's mother also realized what was happening and quickly swallowed her complaints. "Let's not talk about them anymore. Whether Yang Fen is doing well or not is none of our business, as long as she doesn't bother us."

Jiang Zhixun didn't even want to hear that name.

He placed a piece of fish on Shen Qingqing's plate and said, "Eat."

Shen Qingqing didn't want to hear about Yang Fen's affairs either; it was the elders' business to maintain their dignity.

Anyway, she won't attend the wedding, won't give a single penny as a gift, and won't offer blessings to anyone who's targeting her.

In return, Shen Qingqing placed a meatball on Jiang Zhixun's plate, saying, "Congratulations on passing the test!"

A smile appeared on the man's cold face.

He loves his career.

I felt excited and grateful to have passed the assessment.

He gently squeezed Shen Qingqing's hand under the table, silently thanking her for her companionship during this time.

The meatballs are just the right size, perfect for one bite.

Rich fragrance.

Jiang Zhixun thought, "My wife's food is just so delicious!"

Seeing them like this, Jiang's mother had no way of mentioning Yang Fen anymore.

Whether it's good or bad, nobody wants to hear it.

Forget about the unimportant people, "These are all your favorite foods, eat more."

As the person who cooks, I love seeing others enjoy the food I make.

The highest praise for her cooking skills is that she ate every last bit.

As he spoke, he gave Jiang Zhixun and Shen Qingqing each a chicken leg.

Shen Qingqing instinctively reached out to give it to the old man.

The old man refused, saying, "It gets stuck in my teeth, and it's too much trouble to eat."

This is the truth.

Given the Jiang family's resources, there's no need for them to haggle endlessly over a chicken leg.

Shen Qingqing kept the chicken leg in her own bowl and instead put the fish belly meat on the old man's plate.

I also removed all the thorns while I was at it.

"No wonder everyone says daughters are like warm cotton-padded jackets; they are indeed more thoughtful than boys," Jiang's mother said.

She also glanced at her son.

He didn't pick out the bones when he put fish meat on Qingqing's plate.

The mother and son seemed to understand each other perfectly, and Jiang Zhixun's earlobes turned red.

If his elders hadn't been there, he would have made his choice long ago.

He said slowly, "Your daughter-in-law is shy and won't let me do too much."

The words "daughter-in-law" earned him a glare from Shen Qingqing.

Jiang Zhixun raised an eyebrow. "Why are you glaring at me? What did I say wrong?"

Shen Qingqing thought this person was really annoying.

"Eat your food."

"Oh."

He looked completely under Shen Qingqing's thumb.

A slight smile played on his lips; he was quite pleased with himself.

Jiang's mother casually remarked, "Zhixun is right, so when are you going to get your marriage certificate and officially become her daughter-in-law?"

The air was quiet for a few seconds.

Jiang Zhixun said, "It was nine years ago, how else can you prove it?"

They were already married.

Then she'll be Jiang Zhixun's wife for life!

“That’s right, everyone knows Qingqing is our Jiang family’s daughter-in-law,” Jiang’s father chimed in.

Jiang's mother glanced at Shen Qingqing's expression.

She remained calm, no different from usual, making it impossible to discern her true thoughts.

I'm happy.

Still unhappy?
Shen Qingqing did not avoid the question. "Our current situation is not much different from being married. He goes to work, and I also have to work. We can only spend more time together when we are on vacation. It will probably be like this even after we get our marriage certificate."

Jiang's mother said anxiously, "How can that be the same? With a marriage certificate, you are each other's legal family members. To put it bluntly, if one of you goes to the hospital for treatment, the other may have to sign for you."

Shen Qingqing: "..."

Jiang Zhixun: “…”

"Mom, please say something nice."

Jiang's mother: "The words may be rough, but the principle is sound."

Although the words were unpleasant, Shen Qingqing actually took them to heart.

Both she and Jiang Zhixun had experienced low points, and having family members around made a real difference.

As I always say, "Let nature take its course."

Jiang's mother was disappointed for a moment. She had thought there was hope when she saw Qingqing's expression soften.
