In fact, Hu Xiulan didn't mean anything else at all. She just saw that President Mi was so kind to her son and accompanied him to Beijing for treatment, which made Hu Xiulan feel very gratified. That was why she invited Mino to her home for dinner. She really didn't think much about it.
However, on this point, Li Shiya and Mino misunderstood at the same time. Li Shiya thought that the two elders had developed a good impression of Mino, and there was a sign that they wanted to recruit Mino. After all, she and Jiang Cheng had not registered yet, and everything had not been finalized yet. What kind of society was it now? There were so many marriages, divorces, and remarriages. Even if Jiang Cheng and she went to get the book, Li Shiya felt that Mino would kick her out sooner or later and marry into the Jiang Family.
Li Shiya was in a low mood. After pushing Jiang Cheng into the house, she quietly hid in the bathroom alone. In the bathroom, she secretly wiped away her tears. She suddenly felt so miserable. The man whom she had liked for nine years, the man whom she had almost married, had another woman outside.
Not only that, he even brought another woman home. She worked hard to run the family and silently took care of the two elders who were not in good health. It wasn't easy for her. She was almost infertile because of others. All of this made Li Shiya feel that she had failed.
But should she just let it go? Should she give the position that belonged to her to others? Should she let that woman live with Jiang Cheng? No! Li Shiya woke up and shouted. How could she admit defeat so quickly?
Li Shiya looked at the mirror and shouted silently, "Li Shiya, you have to come on. No matter how powerful and beautiful other women are, they can't take your husband away from you, unless you give up yourself."
Li Shiya wiped away her tears, put on a smile, and walked out of the bathroom. She saw that Hu Xiulan was preparing to wash vegetables at this time. She hurried forward, grabbed the basket in Hu Xiulan's hand and said, "Mom, let me cook. You go watch TV with Dad!"
Unexpectedly, Hu Xiulan, who was usually very obedient to Li Shiya, said, "Go away. You young people should stay together and communicate more. Some time ago, I saw on TV that if you don't communicate often, it's easy for a couple to have emotional problems. So, I'll cook this meal today. You, hurry up and accompany your husband!"
Li Shiya opened her mouth wide. She didn't expect that such words would come out of Jiang Cheng's mother's mouth, and it was said to her. She instantly felt that Jiang Cheng's mother was still on her side.
Li Shiya hurriedly nodded and said, "That's good, Mom. I'm going to give Jiang Cheng a massage. His legs haven't recovered yet, so a massage will be very helpful for his recovery. Thank you for the meal!"
Hu Xiulan said with a smile, "Well, OK, you can go."
Li Shiya got up with a smile and went to the living room. She said to Jiang Cheng, "Jiang Cheng, come on, I'll push you in and give you a massage. This will help your legs recover."
At this time, Mino, who was sitting on the sofa and peeling oranges for Jiang Zhiguo, heard that Li Shiya was going to give Jiang Cheng a recovery massage. She hurriedly said, "Well, I'll go too. I've basically learned how to massage now!"
Unexpectedly, Hu Xiulan's voice came from the kitchen again. She shouted, "Xiaomi, come in and help me cut vegetables!"
When Mino heard this, she was even happier. Helping Jiang Cheng's mother cut vegetables was a great opportunity to get closer to her future mother-in-law. She smiled and said, "I'm coming, I'm coming!"
Li Shiya looked at Mino's happy face and felt very unhappy. She angrily pushed Jiang Cheng into the bedroom. As soon as she entered the bedroom, Li Shiya closed the door and locked it. Then she pointed to Jiang Cheng and said, "Take it off!"
.....
This was the first time that Mino had cooked with Jiang Cheng's mother. She usually cooked at home, so it was not difficult for her to wash and cut vegetables. She skillfully washed and cut the vegetables to be copied tonight.
Hu Xiulan, who was standing next to her and peeling the vegetables, looked at Mino's skillful skills and asked with a smile, "Mino, which step are you and my son at now?"
When Mino heard this, her face instantly turned red. Hu Xiulan's question was too "that", so she didn't know how to answer it. If she said that they had progressed to a sexual relationship, that would be too "that". If she said that they were just ordinary friends and colleagues, that would be nonsense. Perhaps even Mino herself wouldn't believe this sentence.
Hu Xiulan also seemed to see Mino's embarrassment. She took a breath and continued, "Alas, our Chengcheng has been naughty since he was a child. He would fight with people outside when he had nothing to do. Sometimes he would beat people black and blue. When their parents came to find us, we had to apologize. Sometimes he would be beaten black and blue, and we would feel sorry for ourselves.
Later, he went to school, and he was the same in school. His academic performance was not good, but his fighting ability was getting better and better. The school teachers told our parents about his situation many times. His father and I had no choice but to agree to let him go to the army.
He served in the army for seven years. In the first two years, he called back and said that he was in some field unit. Later, he called us and told us that he was going to transfer to the army and might not contact his family for a period of time. At that time, we didn't take it to heart and thought that he would call back in a few months.
But we didn't expect that after five years, he didn't call or write to us. We were worried. His father called the army to ask, but the army said that they didn't know where our son was. They only knew that he had transferred to another army, and they didn't know which army he was in.
At that time, we couldn't sleep all day. Our son went to the army and disappeared without a sound. At that time, we were prepared for the worst and cried all day. If Ya hadn't been with us all the time, we really didn't know what to do. "
Hu Xiulan's voice began to choke. Seeing this, Mino hurriedly comforted her, "Auntie, don't be afraid. Now Jiang Cheng is back. You see, he now runs a winery and has a house. His life will gradually get better in the future!"
Hu Xiulan wiped her tears, looked at Mino, and continued, "I also know that after my son came back, he has become more capable and can make money. But, he, he is also a playboy. He is not satisfied with such a beautiful and virtuous wife in the family, and he even hooks up with the manager of the factory. This brat, don't think that I don't know what he has done outside. If he hadn't come back in a wheelchair today, I would have broken his legs."
Mino understood. No wonder Jiang Cheng's mother invited her to their house for dinner today. The dinner was fake. It was probably their real intention to persuade her to leave Jiang Cheng.
Mino's face changed in an instant. She didn't know how to respond to Jiang Cheng's mother's words. She was silent, and her face was very ugly.
Hu Xiulan paused, looked at Mino's expression, and continued, "Little Mi, tell me, why are all men like this? We watched Little Ya grow up. This child is gentle, virtuous, and filial. Chengcheng's father and I know that, and so do the neighbors. So, we will never object to the two of them being together. Say, Little Ya has taken care of us for so many years. It shouldn't be a problem for her to be our Jiang Family's daughter-in-law, right?"
When Mino heard this, her face became even uglier. How could she not understand what Jiang Cheng's mother meant? She was blaming her for destroying the relationship between husband and wife. She got up and said to Hu Xiulan, "Sorry, auntie, I need to go to the bathroom!"
Before Mino finished speaking, she got up and ran to the bathroom. As soon as she entered the bathroom, she locked the door and reached out to cover her mouth. Her tears couldn't stop flowing.
She asked in her heart, "Why? Why? I just like Jiang Cheng and fall in love with him. Why don't they see how much I have done? Why does Jiang Cheng's mother reject me so much? "
Mino couldn't figure it out. She really couldn't figure it out. She tore a piece of tissue, wiped her tears, walked out of the bathroom, and came to the kitchen again. This time, she didn't choose to go in to pick vegetables. Instead, she stood at the door and said to Hu Xiulan, "Auntie, I'm sorry. I have something urgent to deal with in my company. I won't have dinner here!"
When Hu Xiulan heard this, she hurriedly said, "Oh, in that case, I won't see you off. Be careful on the way!"
Mino thanked Hu Xiulan, turned around, and walked to the door. When passing by the living room, Jiang Zhiguo also asked Mino, "Boss Mino, where are you going?"
"Uncle Jiang, I have something urgent to deal with in my company. I have to deal with it quickly. I won't have dinner here. Bye-bye!" Mino walked out of the door of Jiang's house without looking back. Behind her, only Jiang Zhiguo was left staring at the door, dumbfounded.
Jiang Zhiguo felt that something was wrong. Boss Mi's eyes were so red just now. It was obvious that she had cried. He immediately thought that something was wrong. Something must be wrong. The old woman must have said something to Boss Mi and hurt her heart.
He hurriedly walked into the kitchen, pointed to Hu Xiulan, who was cutting vegetables, and asked, "What did you say to Boss Mi just now? Did you make her leave in anger?"
"What did I say? I didn't say anything!"
