Everyone knows now

  "What's this?" Jiang Dashao finally discovered his wife secretly playing Jiang Mei's disc, his slanted eyebrows carrying a hint of teasing.

  Manman's face turned red as she pushed her husband away from the TV and said, "This isn't something you should be watching."

  "But I asked my second sister, and she said that men can also see it." When carrying the pole with his wife, the mobile phone suddenly buzzed, and Yingmei frowned slightly, turned her back, saw that the incoming call was Jiangmu's phone, and walked quickly to the balcony to answer.

  While her husband was on the phone, Manman quickly exited that restricted educational video and found a CD case to lock it in the cabinet. She always felt that letting her husband see this kind of thing was strange, and her husband not only had a strong curiosity but also a strong desire to practice, really intending to learn from the actions in the video to train her in bed, wouldn't that be... just thinking about it made her blush to death.

  Put things in the drawer and lock it up, huh?

  She turned around to see her husband standing in front of her, having walked back from the balcony. His handsome face now had a strange expression, his eyes staring at her with a hint of dullness.

  "What's wrong, Ah Yan?" asked Manman, the little wife, thinking that her husband was suddenly possessed by an evil spirit, waving his palm in front of him.

  "Me——" Jiang Yan's eyes snapped back into focus, his fingers inserted into his hair to scratch, his eyebrows furrowed and then relaxed, fully expressing a kind of puzzlement.

  He had just received a call from his mother, Jiang, and he didn't want to answer it at all because he knew she never called him unless something was wrong. But after all, she was his own mother, so he couldn't just not pick up the phone. He answered it, planning to treat whatever his mother said as trash and hang up immediately.

  The phone was stuck to his ear, and Jiang Mu's mother on the other end of the line didn't know if he had gone crazy or knew his temper, so she used a loud voice to get straight to the point:

  "A Yan, did you know that Man Man went to the hospital for an abortion?"

  He was stunned by Jiang's mother's words in an instant.

  Not a word was exchanged with his mother-in-law, but as he turned back to face his wife, the bright and lively eyes under her glasses, with their clear and distinct pupils, stirred his heart.

  He loves his daughter-in-law, and what he loves is her true self.

  His wife couldn't possibly keep this decision from him alone.

  So, Jiang Mu's words were thrown to the back of his head after a moment of hesitation.

  "A Yan?"

  "There's nothing, I just thought, since the weather is so good today, you don't have to go to the gallery, let's go shopping at the mall instead." Perhaps feeling a little ashamed of his own momentary hesitation, Comrade Jiang Yan decided that today he would let his wife enjoy the ultimate pleasure. Little Vines, like any ordinary housewife, couldn't resist the temptation of the department store.

  "Who said I'm not going to the gallery?" Seeing that her husband was fine, Yue'er slightly raised an eyebrow and said, "I just told them this morning that I would be late, and this afternoon is when I plan to take a look. After all, neither Shige or Chunxia went to the gallery, and no one going to patrol is not allowed."

  "In this way, we can visit the art gallery while having lunch and go to the department store in the afternoon." Comrade Jiang Yan married his wife for her culinary skills, but he still loves his wife dearly and doesn't want her to be a cook just for him every day, so he wants to take her out no matter what.

  I don't know what tricks my husband is playing, but I, a little wife, know that marrying a soldier is different from an ordinary family. If I don't seize the opportunity to bond with my husband, he will leave for his troops and I'll be left alone.

  "It's okay."

  Jiang Yan comrade inexplicably let out a sigh of relief when he saw his daughter-in-law nod in agreement.

  In the hospital

  Jiang's mother hung up the phone as soon as she heard her youngest son say that one sentence. She thought to herself, "This is good, now my son will definitely go and investigate Mengmeng's responsibility." Indeed, no matter how important his wife was, she wasn't as important as their child.

  The vines owe scolding, owe teaching.

  Next, she waited anxiously for nearly an hour, but there was no call from her son to thank her or ask for instructions on how to deal with the decision of Manman.

  She made two more calls, but her son didn't answer either of them.

  He sat back on the long bench in the corridor, his chest heaving with anger: no need to think about it, it must be that little daughter-in-law's slander and beauty, completely bewitching her little son. The son believed his daughter-in-law but not her.

  This energy is comparable to that of the vines.

  One doesn't do something halfway; her son didn't believe her, did he believe his second sister Jiang Mei?

  Call Jiang Mei over, dig up evidence, and let Manman reveal her true form in front of her son.

  Poor Jiang Mei, today is the weekend, but she still has to work overtime in the finance department, busy to the point of being inseparable. Ringing, ringing, ringing, her mother's calls came one after another like a death knell. She couldn't hang up on her mother like her brother did, so she had to answer each call one by one.

  Jiang Mu's tone was consistent, unchanged in its essence: Ah Mei, Manman had an abortion at your hospital and you, as A Yan's sister, didn't even know. How can you be someone's sister?!

  "Mom, none of the girls are pregnant, where did this miscarriage come from?" Jiang Mei was almost driven mad by her mother, and didn't know where her mother had gotten these rumors from. Her mother really believed whatever people said outside, and wouldn't believe what her own family members said.

  Jiang's mother said it herself, she is from this hospital, would she cheat Jiang's mother?

  "It's not what others say, it's what I saw with my own eyes." Jiang Mu didn't expect that neither of her daughters believed her, and that they were all being deceived by that sly girl Meimei. The more she talked, the more agitated she became, even threatening to kill herself. In short, on this matter, she couldn't lose to Meimei again, or else how could she have the chance to become a grandmother in the future? "A certain madam just said that it seemed like Meimei had come to your hospital's obstetrics department a few days ago, I came to investigate myself."

  "Mom, Manman came to the obstetrics and gynecology department a few days ago. I brought her and her friend to our hospital and had them see Director Liu." While holding the phone in the crook of his arm, he rummaged through the files with both hands, sweating all over. The originally smooth work was now being disrupted by Jiang Mu.

  Jiang's mother wants to be a grandmother, she can understand. The problem is that you can't bother those children who work every day with these things all day long. Can't you talk about these things after they get off work?

  Jiang's mother is so lucky, she doesn't have to work anymore and has retired early. She stays at home all day, doing nothing, so she can treat any matter as if it's the whole world, even if it's just a trivial thing like chicken feathers and garlic skins.

  "It was you who took her to the obstetrics department, so she's pregnant and you don't know!" Jiang Mu shouted in a sharp voice.

  "Mom, I told you, I brought her and her two friends together, so it's not Mengmeng who is pregnant, but her friend. Mengmeng just accompanied her friend here as a favor to me. Mom, can't you listen to the whole story instead of jumping to conclusions?" After exhausting herself repeating the explanation, Jiang Mu still held prejudices against Mengmeng and refused to acknowledge the facts. Jiang Mei was furious and hung up on her mother's call, "Mom, I'm busy, I won't talk to you anymore."

  "Hey! Don't hang up the phone, I'm telling you, I have evidence!" Having learned from her younger son's previous experience, Mrs. Jiang said whatever it takes to prevent her daughter from hanging up the phone.

  "What evidence?" Jiang Mei swore that this was the last sentence she would say to her mother today, and no matter what, she would hang up.

  "You can come to our obstetrics and gynecology department to take a look, the medical records here have Mianmian's record of having an abortion." Jiang Mu's teeth were clenched tightly, as if she had personally seen Mianmian taking the pills that induce abortion.

  Jiang Mei only felt a headache, stretching out her fingers to rub her forehead: "Mom, there are many people with the same name and surname, China has a population of over a billion, and the name you gave me is at least shared by hundreds of others in the country. Meimei's name is not special, having the same name and surname is very normal."

  "The registered ID numbers are all messy." Jiang's mother was stubborn and insisted on being stubborn.

  "How did you know Mianmian's ID number?" Jiang Mei was surprised that her mother had investigated Mianmian.

  "This, long before she and your brother got married, I had someone investigate her." Now that things have come to this point, who is lighter and who is heavier, Mother Jiang's heart is clear. In the past, it was impossible to bring down the vines, but today there is an opportunity to bring down Xiao Er's daughter-in-law, even if it means revealing one's own past shameful points, which are not worth fearing.

  Upon hearing this, the matter seemed to have taken a strange turn. She was familiar with her own hospital's procedures and knew that for an abortion, whether it was medical or surgical, the patient had to bring their ID for verification. Jiang Mei thought for a moment before responding to her mother, "I'll call the doctor over there to ask."

  Anyway, the second daughter has finally spoken up.

  Jiang's mother was delighted when she reeled in the line and found a place to make herself a cup of tea, preparing for the next battle.

  After Jiang Mei hung up the phone in the office, she didn't have the heart to continue dealing with the work at hand. Fortunately, these tasks didn't need to be completed today, so she instructed someone to reorganize the reports into a concise version and submit them to her again. Then, she began to focus on the matters of Jiang's mother reporting.

  At first, she was just curious whether it was an old man's eyes that were mistaken.

  Call the obstetrics and gynecology department and ask a familiar doctor to help with the examination.

  The doctor on that side replied to her: "Yes, there is a person named Wen Man who came to our hospital two days ago and successfully had an abortion."

  Jiang Mei's ID number is unclear, so she had no choice but to send a text message to her younger brother Jiang Yan, asking him to send over his wife's ID number as there was something that needed to be checked.

  Jiang Dashi, who was arguing with his wife in the department store about whether to buy a new dress, suddenly received a text message from his second sister Jiang Mei asking for his wife's ID number. A hint of confusion flashed across his eyes, and his eyebrows showed slight unease as he walked aside to call Jiang Mei's phone.

  Jiang Mei didn't dare to tell her brother everything at once, because she knew his temper and was afraid that if this matter got out of hand, the relationship between her brother and mother would become icy for a long time. She just said that there was an activity registration within the hospital and wanted to borrow Mianmian's ID number to try to get more chances to win.

  Although I have doubts in my heart, I've always trusted you, Second Sister. Jiang Yan's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and she spoke with a serious tone to Second Sister: "Second Sister, if there's anything, call me."

  Jiang Mei loudly responded well, recorded down Manman's ID number, and then called the obstetrics department to verify the ID number of the patient Manman with the doctor on the other end, it was indeed a 100% match.

  After hearing the result, Jiang Mei sat in her office chair with a stunned expression and eyes.

  Is Manman really having an abortion?

  Why?

  Doesn't Manman like little kids?

  Suddenly, a strange idea emerged in her mind: Could it be that Mianmian, who likes little kids, doesn't like her brother, so she doesn't want this child?

  Jiang Mei's mind was a complete mess due to the contradictory reasoning in front of and behind her.

  "A'yan, you'd better bring Manman to the hospital." Remembering her brother's words, Jiang Mei, who couldn't think of an answer, had no choice but to ask the person involved directly.

  "Does Second Sister have something to ask of us?" Finally, after being successfully stuffed with a new set of clothes by her husband (the new clothes were paid for by the husband), Little Vines, the young daughter-in-law, saw that her husband was holding a hung-up phone and seemed somewhat distracted. She pushed up her large glasses frame, and a hint of questioning light flashed across the lenses.

  "It's not that they're looking for us, it's that they're looking for me." Comrade Jiang Yan actually guessed a bit why Jiang Mei was looking for him to do something, he didn't want to go at all, thinking it was a waste of effort. No one in the world understands the psychology of wives loving children better than him.

  Jiang's mother's words are absolutely unfounded and alarmist.

  However, in the end, his own sister is no match for Jiang's mother, and it would be better for him and Manman to go along with this trip for now and listen to what Erjie has to say.

  "Really." The little daughter-in-law nodded, the crescent moon-shaped eyes behind her glasses shining with a calm and steady light. "Second sister is working overtime at the hospital today, right? If so, Little Dongzi must be with Grandpa. If everyone doesn't mind, I'll go back home early now and buy some vegetables at the market first. Tonight, let Second Sister, Little Dongzi, and Grandpa come to our house for dinner."

  What a virtuous wife! Where can you find one like her?

  He held his wife's hand, reminding her to be careful on the road. Comrade Jiang Yan hastily went to Jiang Mei's workplace, with a similar anger in his heart as his mother. He made up his mind that if his mother dared to say anything bad about his wife again today, he would not forgive her easily.

  Arrived at the destination in a Volkswagen Beetle, Jiang Mei was already standing at the gate waiting for someone, which was quite annoying.

  As soon as her brother parked the car, Jiang Mei hastily went forward to greet him, explaining the situation in a hurry while leading him into her office for discussion.

  The finance department is located in the hospital's office building, on the same floor as the personnel department.

  As the two siblings climbed up the stairs, Jiang Mei had already explained to her brother about the process of making several phone calls with their mother earlier, and then went on to talk about the key points of the medical records and ID.

  "I think this is quite strange. However, indeed, the ID number registered in the record matches what you reported, without error." Jiang Mei's words became more urgent as she herself was contradictory and undecided, "Moreover, when our doctors do this kind of thing, they always verify with an ID card. The probability of error is extremely low."

  Such a strange thing, how could it happen to our own little daughter-in-law Mianmian?

  Her eyebrows were raised, her eyes cast down, gazing at the floor tiles, lost in deep thought.

  "Ayarn." Seeing her brother's puzzled expression, Jiang Mei's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this newlywed couple was also experiencing marital crisis like herself? She hastily said, "No, why don't you try asking Manman instead? Maybe Manman is just feeling uneasy because she's pregnant for the first time and isn't prepared to be a mother yet, who knows, maybe she wants to put it off for a while."

  "Sister." Hearing this, Jiang Yan couldn't help but speak up, looking at the unease on his sister's face, and he couldn't help but smile slightly, with a hint of depth in his tone, "Does Mianmian want to have kids? You're not unaware, are you?"

  Manman really wants a child and hearing her friend is pregnant makes her want one even more.

  That day, accompanying Chunxia who had come over, every word and action, every expression and movement, all revealed her longing to be a mother.

  But what about such iron evidence in hospitals?

  "Perhaps she suddenly changed her mind. This person's thoughts are hard to grasp, especially for a pregnant woman with fluctuating emotions. Ah Yan, you just don't know this."

  "No!" Jiang Dashao said resolutely, "I trust her, she would never do such a thing."

  Jiang Mei fell onto the sofa, her fingers supporting her forehead:

  Younger brother's stubbornness.

  The mystery of repeated miscarriages.

  She was like a headless fly, didn't know where to start investigating this matter.

  "Sister, anyway, it's almost time to get off work, let's go back home and talk after dinner. Mianmian knew you had overtime this weekend, so she specifically went to the market to buy some extra dishes, preparing a delicious meal for you and Xiaodong." Jiang Dashao explained to Jiang Mei in detail.

  Jiang Mei listened and felt both grateful that Manman was thinking of them, mother and son, but also a bit suspicious. Manman was being so attentive to her, she wondered if there wasn't some other motive behind it.

  As the two walked down, a pair of eyes swept across their backs from the other direction on the stairs.

  ……

  When Jiang Yan brought Jiang Mei back to his home, it was Xiao Dongzi who opened the door for them.

  At the door, his mother was standing there. Xiao Dong, wearing big glasses, explained himself first: "Grandpa brought me here. He said Uncle and Auntie invited us for dinner tonight."

  "Yes, yes, I and your aunt will treat you to some delicious food." Rubbing his little nephew's short hair, Jiang Yan pushed the child towards the door.

  Jiang Mei closed the door after entering and could smell the fragrance wafting from the kitchen, making her stomach growl with hunger.

  "Whatever Auntie makes is delicious." Because his mother at home can't cook, Little Dongzi has been spoiled by eating branded takeout for years and praises Auntie without reservation, "If Auntie opens a restaurant, I believe it will definitely be packed with long lines every day just to get a taste of her cooking."

  Jiang Mei's face turned slightly dark after hearing her son's words, Jiang Yan covered his little nephew's mouth with his palm and said, "Uncle will turn on the computer for you, you can play Weibo or games if you want."

  "Playing games? Don't spoil him, he's studying." Jiang Mei had just scolded her brother, when she suddenly heard another voice echoing the same words.

  Not just Jiang Mei herself was stunned, but also Manman who came out of the kitchen door was also stunned.

  Xiao Dongzi and Jiang Yanqi burst out laughing, then even Jiang's father, who was watching TV in the living room, couldn't help but laugh. The laughter was loud and clear, filled with the temperament of a high-ranking military officer: "One is going to be a mom, one is already a mom, they're all talking about it together. Ah Yan, you have to listen to your two moms. Otherwise, your two moms won't let you off easy, you can't 'beat' them."

  "Dad, I'm under the control of my wife and sister, don't worry." Jiang Yunying raised an eyebrow slyly, and after receiving a cold stare from the two women, she quietly took Xiaodong into the room.

  "A Mei, you can't go into the kitchen to help Man Man, sit here." Jiang's father saw the heavy heart on his daughter's face and pointed to the sofa beside him.

  It's hard to go against one's father's orders.

  Her relationship with her father was not as close as that of her brother's, and she felt a little nervous when sitting down.

  Mianmian returned to the kitchen, turned around, and looked at the Jiang family sitting in the living room, with a flash of light on her glasses.

  Listening to Jiang Bo and Jiang Mei talking.

  "Ah Mei, I heard that after this military exercise is over, there will be a holiday break. Si Quan hasn't come back yet." said Jiang's father.

  Cheng Si Quan is Jiang Mei's husband and holds a position in a certain regiment.

  Soldiers in the army are not like ordinary men outside who may be unfaithful because they don't go home, but rather have a family and can't go back.

  Cheng Si's family has a wife and son, but he doesn't like to go home. Whoever hears about it can't help but wonder if Jiang Mei is not liked by her husband at home.

  "He had called me before. He said he was on duty for someone else, his fellow soldier hadn't returned to his hometown in many years, unlike him." Jiang Mei's handshake was like an oath, a solemn declaration.

  "You two are on your own, I don't want to interfere. Nowadays, it's not fashionable for parents to intervene too much. However, if you two really have an emotional crisis, as a father, I'd like to advise you that if the woman gives up easily in this aspect, it's unfair to the man. In managing a marriage, men may be important as the head of the household, but women are just as important." Mr. Jiang said this with sincerity to his daughter.

  So this also includes problems between Chiang's father and mother.

  Waiting for the pot to open, Yan Yan inadvertently heard all of Jiang Bo's words in her ears. Yue Ya blinked: Jiang Bo's principle of dealing with marriage is similar to that of his own father, Wen Shi Xuan. Perhaps it was because the two people had a sympathetic feeling about marriage problems, no wonder they could meet like old friends.

  The crescent moon is curved into a small smile.

  "Dad." Without thinking, her father was using his own experiences with her mother to teach her a lesson. Jiang Mei felt quite ashamed listening to this. Her father had heart disease and wasn't in good health, yet he still worried about his children's affairs. It was she who wasn't being very filial. "As for Shi Quan's matter, don't worry, I haven't reached the point where I can't understand him. As for what you said about you and mom, I believe that whether it's big brother, Ah Yan, or me, none of us want to see problems in your marriage. You two have been married for so many years, you've gone through all sorts of storms, unlike us young people who are just starting out."

  Listen, daughter's words are quite philosophical, I suppose she has been reflecting a lot lately. Jiang father felt relieved and said: "The problem between your mother and me will be resolved, even if it's just for the sake of you children."

  "Mom didn't make a big mistake, she just had a strong competitive spirit and was a bit soft in the ears." Jiang Mei was used to mediating between her parents.

  "No matter what, wrong is wrong, and no excuse can justify the mistake. As long as she doesn't admit her own mistakes, I won't accept her." In this regard, General Chiang has always maintained a military style of being straightforward and decisive.

  Now, although Jiang's mother moved back home just a few days after throwing a tantrum that day, Jiang's father was resolute in his declaration that he would not sleep in the same room as her until she changed her attitude.

  Now, Jiang's father's voice is loud, even with the door closed, people standing at the door can still faintly hear it.

  Jiang's mother rushed into her youngest son's home to fetch the comb, and inadvertently overheard Jiang's father's words, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood in anger.

  She was originally waiting in the hospital, thinking that her second daughter Jiang Mei had been moved by herself and things were almost done. Before long, Manman came to her front and sincerely admitted his mistake.

  Waited for an entire afternoon, still didn't wait for the person, now even second daughter Jiang Mei hung up her phone (actually it was Jiang Da Shao who hung up on Jiang Mu along the way).

  It's all messed up, they actually only believe in ManMan but don't believe what she says, even with solid evidence.

  Ran back home in one breath, picked up a broom, wanting to go to her youngest son's house to scold his daughter-in-law.

  As she walked to the door, she heard Jiang's father say this was just a scolding, obviously, Jiang's father had been deceived by Manman and brought here for a ear cleaning, his thumb pressed hard on the doorbell.

  "Who is it?" Jiang's father had to pause his conversation with his daughter and get up from the sofa to ask.

  Jiang Mei immediately went into the kitchen and asked Manman.

  Manman walked out of the kitchen, shaking her head: "I didn't call anything."

  Upon hearing this, he waved his hand and didn't let the woman go open the door. Jiang's father went to open it himself, fearing it might be some unknown person.

  Seeing this, Manman knocked on the door of the room and called out: "A Yan."

  At this moment, Jiang's father, who had practiced a fearless and unyielding spirit in the army, turned the doorknob and pulled open the inner wooden door.

  Jiang Mei stood on tiptoes behind her father and saw through the iron bars of the anti-theft door that the figure standing in front of the door was --- Jiang Mu.

  "Mom!" Surprised, seeing that her father hadn't moved, seemingly even more astonished than she was, she stretched out her hand over her father to help her mother open the door.

  As soon as the anti-theft door opened, Jiang's father saw his wife with a gloomy face and frowned, asking: "I didn't leave a note saying I wouldn't be home for dinner tonight, but I didn't say where I was going. How did you know I was here? Who told you?"

  "This is my son's home, can't I come in as his mother?" Jiang Mu walked in with an air of dignity, ready to fight it out with everyone here who was on Manman's side.

  "What do you want to do?" Jiang's father, with his powerful hands that had practiced iron sand fist, grasped Jiang's mother's wrist, seemingly somewhat angry and interrogating.

  Jiang's mother not only spoke in an unpleasant tone but also held a feather duster in her hand.

  If it is said that Chiang's mother took a broom to help her son sweep the floor, even children would not believe it.

  Little Dongzi walked to the door and saw his grandmother in this posture, and directly exclaimed: "Grandma, who do you want to hit?"

  In an instant, the people in the living room were all on high alert, their eyes fixed on Jiang Mu, and the two men were ready to pounce at any moment.

  Chiang's fatherly guidance on family education is: a good child cannot be produced under the rod, we must implement loving education and absolutely cannot abuse or beat children in the slightest.

  Jiang's father increased the force on his wrist by three points, Jiang's mother gritted her teeth and let out a cold hum, throwing the feather duster in her left hand to the ground with a soft thud.

  "Mother." Jiang Mei thought her mother had agreed and was about to happily go forward and say a few words.

  Before she could even reach her mother, her mother suddenly stretched out one hand and pointed straight at the entwined bodies of Mengmeng and Xiaodong: "I had originally thought I would use a feather duster to educate this woman, but then I thought, why not expose this woman's true face right here in front of all of you!"

  Yuè Yá'er's eyes met those of Jiang Mu, and she looked bewildered, blinking her eyelashes.

  She and Jiang's mother hadn't seen each other or spoken in a long time, two people without any connection, how did she offend Jiang's mother?

  "Don't say another word!" A big step forward, sternly guarding his wife like a copper wall and iron fortress. Comrade Jiang Yan's patience was limited, and with one roar, he gave the order to expel Jiang Mu.

  "Ah Yan, this woman is deceiving you!" Jiang Mu felt that the world had turned upside down, for in the past, her youngest son would never dare to speak to her in such a big tone.

  "Who says I'm lying, my conscience is clear, no need for others to testify." Jiang Dashao's voice was calm, steady and unshakeable, his eyebrows slightly raised, his eyes had already scanned the crowd of neighbors from upstairs and downstairs who had gathered due to the commotion at home, a glint of light flashing.

  Receiving a hint from his son, he knew that something was wrong. Mr. Jiang was in a hurry to close the door and cover up the family's shame.

  "Even if Jiang's mother's loud voice, passed through the door, without careful consideration, words burst out, covering the entire building: "I have evidence and witnesses, I must let you see through her hypocritical appearance today. She actually dared to deceive our Jiang family and abort our Jiang family's child!"

  Jiang's father suddenly stopped his hand at the last seam of the door, and his eyes turned back with an unusual color.

  Jiang's mother wanted to be a grandmother, and Jiang's father was looking forward to being a grandfather. It had been many years already, but they were considerate of their son and daughter-in-law and didn't express it as openly as they used to when they were younger.

  Jiang Mei and Jiang Yan's faces fell simultaneously, seeing the situation develop in the worst direction.

  Xiao Dongzi slightly pursed his lips, and his small eyes looked at the adults in the living room with suspicion, not daring to move.

  What shocked everyone the most was that Jiang Mu's face turned completely pale, and for a moment, it seemed as if she had lost all credibility in the eyes of the crowd.

  "She's pretending!" Jiang Mu's sharp voice pierced through the floors once again.

  ……

  Lu Family

  Seeing her own brother walking in with a worried look on his face, Lu Huan poked her head out of her bedroom door, extremely surprised: "Brother, where have you been?"

  Master Jun had some official business to attend to in the afternoon, so he took advantage of the weekend to find someone from Jiang Mei's personnel department and went to her unit to check her personnel file.

  As a result, I didn't finish the task and unexpectedly ran into my sister's husband and his sister whispering to each other on the stairs.

  Because he didn't want to go forward and greet them, Jun Ye chose not to show himself, standing in a relatively distant place to eavesdrop. Listening carefully, he only heard a few key words: one was "Jiang Mu" and the other was "medicine abortion".

  These two words were enough to make him highly vigilant.

  Originally wanted to catch brother-in-law and ask directly.

  First, I finished my work and came out to find that my sister's husband and Jiang Mei had both left. Second, after thinking about it later, if this matter was really related to my sister and her husband, given his carefree but meticulous personality, he wouldn't have done it without discussing it with him, so it's likely that the person being referred to is not his sister.

  After some deliberation, I walked back home.

  "Is Bao'er here?" The cold tone softened a lot when dealing with family members at home.

  "Yes." Lu Huan smiled at his brother, revealing a row of bright and handsome teeth. "Bao'er said that his brother was organizing the study at home and wouldn't let him touch the computer. He found it boring, so he ran downstairs to our house."

  "Uh-huh, you guys go play." He said, wiping past his brother's door and entering his own room.

  "Huan'er." Yao Zibao's tense voice suddenly came from inside the room.

  A slender figure suddenly stopped in its tracks.

  "What's wrong, baby?" Lu Huan asked.

  "I was just leaning on the window to observe the enemy situation in the courtyard, and found that those old women who loved to wag their tongues, one by two, rushed out of the gate for no reason, as if they were going to watch a lively scene somewhere." Yao Zibao always came up with interesting adjectives to describe any situation.

  Lu Huan blinked in confusion: What does this have to do with our family?

  Yao Zibao was just looking for excitement, but actually wanted to pull Lu Huan along to join in the fun. However, Lu Huan inherited the temperament of the Lu family and didn't like to join in the commotion.

  Two young men looked at each other, hesitating, when a cold voice suddenly came from the air: "Huan'er, go and see what's going on? Call me."

  Big Brother's orders are like military commands, and he rushes to obey them without hesitation. The problem is that Big Brother's order was unexpected, because in the past, even when a fire broke out in this very courtyard, Master Jun sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, reading the newspaper, not batting an eyelid, as if the end of the world wouldn't budge him from his icy composure.

  Could it be that big brother knew something was going to happen?

  The handsome young man's eyebrows were slightly raised, and Lu Huan and Yao Zibao rushed out of the door quickly.

  Seeing this situation, the young master didn't even enter his own house, he put on his outdoor shoes again and waited for news from his brother.

  "Brother, brother, the phone is here. Lu Jia's second son is reporting to his elder brother on the phone, with a fist in his throat, excited and indignant: "Brother, you quickly come over to my sister's side. My sister-in-law's crazy old mother doesn't know what she's doing, and she's taking it out on my sister again! She says she wants to hit my sister with a feather duster!"

  Jiang's mother, that selfish woman, actually dared to use a feather duster to hit her sister?

  Is it because this life is lived too long?

  A cold figure whirled out of the door like a tornado.

  Immediately, they rushed to the corridor of Jiang Dashao's new house.

  A crowd of idle people who liked to listen to gossip all gathered at the door of Jiang Dashi's new house, each stretching their necks to look inside like chickens and ducks hanging from a hook. Inside were no lack of ladies who had attended gatherings with Mrs. Jiang.

  Cold eyebrows and frosty color burst out.

  "Brother Lu!" Yao Zibao squeezed out of the crowd after hearing the news from the frontmost outpost, leaving only Lu Huan to guard the position at the front line.

  "What did you say?"

  Yao Zibao was speechless for a moment, it's embarrassing to hear this from a young boy, but since Manman is like his own sister, it's not too embarrassing. He licked his dry lips and began to report in a low voice: "Chiang Dashi's mom said that Sister Manman secretly had an abortion without telling her or the family. Lu Dage, does this 'abortion' refer to——"

  It's true!

  Her dark eyes suddenly narrowed, and she took a step forward.

  He strode past, and the icy chill of life suddenly broke open a path that no one dared to approach.

  The people who were surrounding Chiang's new house, turned around to see him arrive, and they all revealed their unbelievable astonishment. His cold gaze swept past them like a flash of lightning, and they all retreated in defeat.

  The message from Brother Jun's cold eyes was clear: those who like to gossip, get out.

  In a little while, those chickens, ducks and geese that were hanging around the door of Jiang Dashao's new house to listen to the excitement all disappeared, rolling down the stairs like snowballs.

  Yao Zibao stood guard at the entrance of the building, no longer allowing boring people to get close.

  A tall and slender figure stood in front of Jiang Dashi's new house, her finger pressed the doorbell with a slight effort.

  Jiang's father, who was leaning against the door, didn't have time to close it tightly. He turned around and took a look through the gap in the door, only to see that the person standing outside was... someone from the Lu family!

  It's a shock.

  The prestige of this young master of the Lu family is even renowned among the older generation.

  Chiang's father had heard the inside story that this young master of the Lu family was born to be trained as a top-notch military personnel who grasps the most confidential matters, and his style of doing things and ability to handle affairs are not comparable to those of ordinary young people nowadays.

  Moreover, as far as he knew, this young master of the Lu family was extremely averse to meddling in other people's affairs. There were even rumors that asking Master Qiu to do something was more difficult than moving mountains and seas.

  It's strange, I only know that my youngest son has recently been rumored to be close to the Lu family, but the question is, is he close enough for the Lu family's eldest son, who doesn't interfere with others' business, to appear at our doorstep as soon as something happens in our household?

  For a moment, Mr. Jiang was completely at a loss as to what to do, or rather, he couldn't grasp the thoughts of the Lu family and their young master. However, this door, for the Lu family, was one that could not be left unopened.

  Lu Siling, as the head of their family old and young, if there is an irreconcilable dispute in the family of his subordinates that affects military marriage issues, he personally presides over justice on the scene, which reflects a leader's responsibility to care about the lives of his subordinates.

  Lu Dajia was rumored to have arrived first to understand the situation instead of Commander Lu.

  Thinking of this, Jiang's father, who opened the door for you, was even more cautious and respectful: "Hello, Colonel Lu."

  His calm gaze swept across Jiang's father's face. As for his brother-in-law's father, Commander Lu had thoroughly investigated him and found no issues with his character. It was just that Jiang's mother had dragged Jiang's father down, leaving Commander Lu with a hint of regret: as a man, a high-ranking military officer, he couldn't even control his unreasonable wife at home.

  Jiang's father was not without effort, but Jiang's mother had a somewhat slippery policy. On ordinary days, when she didn't catch Mianmian off guard, she wouldn't quarrel with her.

  Now, Jiang Mu has grasped his sister's weakness?

  Her cold eyes swept over and stared at Jiang Mu's face.

  Jiang's mother, on the other hand, looked confident and relieved today, fearless in front of him, with a slight smile at the corner of her eyes, saying: "Colonel Lu has arrived just in time, I suppose you're here to replace Commander Lu? Please help me preside over justice in our household."
