As Jiang Cheng ate, his eyebrows were deeply furrowed. He had an absent-minded look on his face. At this moment, all his thoughts were on what he should do tomorrow. The current situation really left him at a loss.
Mino was also helpless at this time. She could only look at him anxiously. When she looked up and saw Jiang Cheng gobbling up the food, she also felt distressed. She wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a long time, she just tried to open her mouth, but no words came out.
Because at this time, Mino realized that anything she said now would be so superfluous and so pale. Perhaps the only thing she could do now was to stand quietly behind Jiang Cheng and give him the strength to support him.
Jiang Cheng saw everything. Looking at Mino's hesitant look, he was very worried. He gently put down the bowl and chopsticks and said softly, "What's wrong? Is there anything that you can't tell me? If you have something to say, just say it."
Hearing this, Mino was stunned. She didn't expect that Jiang Cheng could even see through her mind. She smiled bitterly, shook her head, and said, "No, nothing. Let's eat first." After that, she lowered her head and ate without saying a word.
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng knew that Mino must have something to say to him, but maybe it was not the right time. Jiang Cheng sighed and didn't ask anymore. This was his trust and respect for Mino. Jiang Cheng knew that Mino was a woman with a backbone and a mind of her own. Her EQ and IQ were above his. Since Mino didn't want to say it now, she must have her reasons. So he would give her some time to digest it.
Everyone tried hard to keep this meal happy and relaxed, but they still didn't taste good. However, for Jiang Cheng's parents and Mino, as long as Jiang City was back, there was hope for everything. It was like seeing the light in the darkness. No matter how difficult it was, as long as everyone was together, they believed that everything would be fine again.
Everyone seemed to have a lot on their minds. This meal seemed to be very long. After everyone finished eating, Mino stood up to clean up the dishes. Jiang Cheng also stood up quickly and silently helped Mino clean up the table. Jiang Cheng's mother rushed to clean up the table, but Jiang Zhiguo glared at her and said, "Well, let's take Haohao out for a walk. Anyway, he is back. Let him do some housework to practice. It is also a good thing."
Jiang Cheng's mother smiled bitterly, held little Jiang Hao in her arms and said, "Let's go, little Haohao. Grandma will take you out to play." After that, she followed Jiang Zhiguo and walked out with the child in her arms.
After Jiang Zhiguo and his wife walked far away, Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and looked seriously at Mi Nuo. He solemnly said, "Mi 'er, I'm sorry." With that, he raised his head and looked into the distance, not daring to meet Mi Nuo's gaze.
Mino was stunned when she heard that. Her chopsticks fell to the ground, just like their home. Mino squatted down and tried to pick them up to hide her excitement. However, her eyes turned red and her face was full of emotion. She gently raised her head and said with a smile, "Silly, do we still need to talk about this?"
Hearing Mino's words, Jiang Cheng was even more ashamed. He could feel the love in Mino's eyes. At that moment, he said helplessly, "You are a high and mighty president. Although you are not above one person, your life should never be like this. It is a pity that you met me, Jiang Cheng, and I, Jiang Cheng, am such a jerk. I have done so many jerk things again and again. I have implicated you." After that, he squatted down with his hands on his head, feeling very regretful.
Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Mino felt even more sad. She had never thought that one day she would be reduced to such a situation. Perhaps it should not be called reduced, because in Mino's heart, Jiang Cheng was still the domineering young man in Jiangnan City. No one could compare to him. As long as Jiang Cheng was still there, everything would be back.
Mino looked at Jiang Cheng and said warmly, "It doesn't matter. As long as you are here, Haohao is here, and we are together with our parents, we will definitely overcome all the difficulties. The most important thing now is to find a job. I will also go out to find a job after Haohao's life is stable."
When Mino said that, she couldn't help but sigh at the changes in herself. Since she met Jiang Cheng, she almost didn't know herself. However, Mino liked this kind of change. In the current popular saying, she felt that she was more down to earth.
When Jiang Cheng heard Mino's words, his heart was incomparably warm. He wanted to say something, but thousands of words were difficult to express in his heart. He smiled bitterly, then looked at Mino and nodded gently. For a hot-blooded man like Jiang Cheng, if he couldn't give his wife and children a good life, he had no value at all.
The two of them quietly cleaned up the dishes together. At this moment, Mino even felt that everything in front of her was an illusion. In fact, the current state was the real home. No matter what the reason was, such an ordinary life might be what Mino yearned for the most.
And now, what Mino was most worried about was that Jiang Cheng would be depressed or do something bad. After all, Jiang Cheng's temperament determined that all of this was very likely, and it was very likely that Jiang Cheng would do something impulsive.
Mino thought for a long time, but she still couldn't help asking. She had to figure it out so that she could have a plan. However, she was afraid of hurting Jiang Cheng's self-esteem, so she could only pretend to be careless and said lightly, "What kind of job are you going to find?"
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng looked up at Mino, then thought thoughtfully and said, "I think I have neither education nor ability, so I can only do some of the simplest things. For our family, it doesn't matter even if I go to a construction site. We still have the strength."
Mino thought in her heart, "Construction site? Can Jiang Cheng go to? What kind of person was Jiang Cheng in the past? When did he suffer such grievances? " And as Jiang Cheng's lover, Mino didn't want Jiang Cheng to do this. It was just that for the sake of their livelihood, Mino had no good idea. She looked at Jiang Cheng and said lightly, "I don't know if our old friends will help us."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng shook his head gently and said, "If they are fair-weather friends, they are best at hitting us when we are down. If they are real friends, even if they really want to help us now, we can't accept it."
Hearing this, Mino was stunned, then she frowned and asked, "Why?"
While washing the dishes, Jiang Cheng said without raising his head, "If someone really helps us now, then I'm afraid he'll be the next one to suffer. I'm now a dangerous person. Although the higher-ups haven't investigated me, it doesn't mean that there will be any unexpected changes in the future. However, I'll definitely be monitored. If that's the case, if someone takes the risk to help us now, then he'll definitely be implicated."
Mino looked at Jiang Cheng and nodded gently. She knew Jiang Cheng well. He would not trouble his brother unless it was absolutely necessary. This was also what Mino admired about Jiang Cheng. Besides, what Jiang Cheng said was not unreasonable. You can't hurt others because you want to get help. But if there was no help now, she was afraid that they would have a hard time in the future. Even if both of them worked, it would be difficult for them to live a good life in Jiangnan City. Medical care, education, each of them was like a mountain pressing on everyone's heart.
If one didn't manage the household, one wouldn't know the cost of daily necessities. Now, Mino and Jiang Cheng could truly feel what a real life would be like. They didn't have a smooth life, nor did they have wealth. They could only go out to work in exchange for three meals a day or a slightly better life.
Jiang Cheng put away the washed dishes, wiped his hands, and came to Mino. He gently held Mino's little hand and said, "Oh, don't worry. As long as I, Jiang Cheng, am here, I will definitely let you live a good life again."
Seeing that Jiang Cheng was still full of fighting spirit and not decadent, Mino was also very happy. She smiled and said, "Well, I believe you."
Jiang Cheng also grinned, showing his white teeth. This time, he smiled very happily. Because at that moment, he seemed to understand that this kind of feeling of home seemed to be good. But this time, Jiang Cheng would really bear the responsibility as a man with his own shoulders.
This night seemed to come very early. Jiang Cheng and Mino also went to bed early. They did not speak, just lying quietly, thinking about their own things. It seemed that they had thousands of words to say, but they did not know where to start. There were too many things that they had not figured out how to face. There was an inexplicable sense of powerlessness about the future.
Jiang Cheng had never felt so deeply confused, tossing and turning. Perhaps tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
The next day, when the sky had just turned bright, Jiang Cheng got up early. He warmed up, went out to buy some breakfast, and then prepared breakfast for his family. When Mino and Jiang Cheng's parents came out, the food had already been prepared. Everyone looked at Jiang Cheng in disbelief. It seemed that they could not imagine that all this was done by Jiang Cheng.
In their impression, Jiang Cheng was a domineering man, but rarely showed his meticulous thinking. Most of the time, he was careless, making people not know how to tame this runaway wild horse. Now, Jiang Cheng seemed to have changed, making people feel that something was missing. Maybe it was because the blow this time was too big. That was what everyone thought.
After breakfast, Jiang Cheng said with a smile, "I'm going to look for a job today. Don't worry, I will definitely find a good job. I guarantee that everyone can live like before."
These words of Jiang Cheng were serious. After a night of careful consideration, Jiang Cheng decided to start over, because he knew that he was the hope of this family. He could not let Mino bear more.
