"Jiang Yao, Mom said you don't go back often." The car wasn't fast, and it was noon, so there wasn't much wind. Lu Xingzhi's voice could be heard clearly behind them, so Jiang Yao could clearly hear Lu Xingzhi's question.
"Yeah, I'm too busy with my schoolwork." Jiang Yao swallowed her ice cream and replied softly. She naturally knew that the "Mom" Lu Xingzhi was referring to was her mother.
Actually, she wasn't too busy. She just didn't want to go back. She was still angry with her parents because they ignored her objections and agreed to the marriage with the Lu family.
So after she got married, she almost never went back to her parents' home. Now that she thought about it, she was really unfilial. She was the youngest child and the only girl in the family. Her parents and two brothers all doted on her very much. But in her previous life, she was really heartless enough to throw that family to the back of her mind.
"When school starts, I won't be able to rush back to send you to school. Ask your brother to send you to the university," Lu Xingzhi reminded her. "I'll be more at ease if your brother is with you."
"Why can't my second brother?" Jiang Yao asked. "Actually, my relationship with my second brother is even better."
Jiang Yao's eldest brother, Jiang Lei, and Lu Xingzhi were one year younger. Coincidentally, they were classmates in high school. Her second brother, Lu Xingzhi, was a few years younger than Jiang Lei. However, Lu Xingzhi knew the two Jiang brothers very well.
So when he heard that Jiang Yao wanted Jiang Lei to send her, Lu Xingzhi immediately rejected it. "No, it has to be your eldest brother. Even if your second brother wants to send you, your eldest brother has to go with him."
Lu Xingzhi didn't doubt that with Jiang Lei's temperament, as long as Jiang Yao acted coquettishly, Jiang Lei would run away with Jiang Yao. Or perhaps, once Jiang Lei saw something interesting, he would immediately forget about his younger sister, Jiang Yao, and lose her.
Jiang Jie's temperament was much calmer than Jiang Lei's, so Lu Xingzhi felt more at ease with Jiang Jie around.
Jiang Yao couldn't help but laugh softly in the backseat. "If my second brother hears this, he'll definitely be unhappy."
Indeed, the age difference between her and her second brother was less than four years, while her eldest brother was six years older. Moreover, her second brother was quieter, so she was closer to him. Since she was young, she had always hung around her second brother. If she caused any trouble, she would push the blame to him. Then, she would cleverly run to her eldest brother for help and ask him to speak on her behalf so that her parents wouldn't punish her second brother.
Thinking back to her childhood, it was truly a blissful one. She was always involved in bad things, but she was never involved in getting scolded. When there was good food at home, she would always eat first. Only when she couldn't finish it would her two brothers get a share.
The sun was scorching in the afternoon. Jiang Yao had just recovered from her illness, so she felt a little uncomfortable sitting in the backseat under the scorching sun.
Jiang Yao remembered that after she received the acceptance letter in her previous life, she used silence to resist the Lu family. After that, she didn't return to the Jiang family immediately. The news of her being accepted by Nanjiang Medical University was spread to the Jiang family by people from the same village. When she returned to the Jiang family with Lu Xingzhi the next day, her parents gave her a round of scolding right to her face. They scolded her for being rebellious.
Thinking back, her life in her previous life was truly laughable. At the age when she should have been most sensible, she was born with a rebellious heart.
