Volume 1 The Lonely Shadow of the Cold River Chapter 38 Poor Xiaojuan
Mo Xiaojuan's eyelids have been jumping again in the past two days, her cousin has been dead for two years, but Mr. Jiang has no intention of continuing the string, which makes Mo Xiaojuan a little unbreathable, she sits alone on the wide sofa, looking at the beautiful scenery by the river, it is late autumn, and the vegetation by the river shows colorful colors. But the beauty doesn't make her happy.
Mo Xiaojuan looked at the haute couture suit she had just bought, and the more she looked at it, the more upset she became, so she picked it up and threw it aside.
Women are pleasing to themselves, but Mr. Jiang doesn't even look at himself, is he not attractive enough, or?
She was distraught on the sofa in a daze, after Mr. Jiang came back from a trip, he didn't even return home, so he hurriedly threw himself into work. Since the death of her cousin, Mo Xiaojuan has taken on the responsibility of taking care of Mr. Jiang, she takes care of Mr. Jiang meticulously, a successful man is always glamorous outside, but at home, only Mo Xiaojuan can feel the loneliness and pain of Mr. Jiang.
She didn't want to see her brother-in-law suffer like this, and she hoped that she could take good care of the poor man instead of her cousin. Mr. Jiang's infatuation touched her and hurt her, even if it was an ice lump, it should be covered by herself.
If it weren't for his strong request, Mr. Jiang wouldn't have come back tonight, even if he was in the magic capital, he would rather stay in a hotel than come back, I don't know if he was deliberately avoiding himself, or if he didn't want to see everything here, seeing things and thinking about people and remembering people in the past.
"Forget it, whatever, as long as Mr. Jiang is happy, it's fine, and his current life is also satisfactory, just in terms of material aspects, he is much more comfortable than before. ”
After Mo Xiaojuan graduated, she came to the magic capital with her college boyfriend, everything was beautiful at that time, the two of them went to work together, got off work together, and bought vegetables together, once upon a time they also fantasized about being able to have their own in this metropolis, a small house. But for seven years, most of Mo Xiaojuan's youth has passed, but she can't even afford to buy a 10-square-meter house, but her boyfriend secretly got together with her best friend.
A few years ago, Mo Xiaojuan couldn't help but shed tears every time she remembered that scene. Just when she was disheartened and ready to leave the magic capital, once her cousin went back to her hometown to visit relatives, Mo Xiaojuan knew that she had such a broad relative, so she came to her cousin with the attitude of trying it out.
Cousin Mo Shuzhen is also very happy that there is one more person who can talk to her, although she is a distant cousin, Mo Xiaojuan can also feel her cousin's attitude towards herself, and she treats herself as her closest person.
Mo Xiaojuan is grateful to her cousin for her kindness, after her cousin died, Mo Xiaojuan took care of the family wholeheartedly every day, like a servant, worked hard and kept the house in order. It turned out that there was a maid Xiaolan, but this maid's hands and feet were always unclean, Mo Shuzhen was kind-hearted, although she had found Xiaolan's stealing, but because it was not an important thing, it was just a few words of admonition. Mo Shuzhen, who believes in Buddhism all the year round, believes that anyone is kind in their hearts, and Xiaolan is only forced by life to steal things.
Poor Mo Shuzhen is too kind, she always thinks that everyone is kind, she has been kind all her life, but in the end she didn't get a good end. After working at Mr. Jiang's house for a few years, she slowly got to know a group of friends in the nanny circle, each of whom was dressed extraordinary, and even more, some nannies showed off to her with brand jewelry from their owners. This hit Xiaolan's self-esteem, although Mo Shuzhen is worth a lot of money, but has always adhered to a minimalist attitude to life, so she rarely buys gold and silver jewelry, and her favorite string of beads is just a request from the temple, which is not worth a few dollars at all.
Later, Xiaolan learned to play mahjong, in her spare time, she would play a few rounds with a few sisters in the nanny circle, although she didn't play much, but her card skills were really not good, and Xiaolan's hands were a little tight after a long time. She had borrowed money from Mo Shuzhen a few times, and at first Mo Shuzhen gave some back, but later Mo Shuzhen knew about Xiaolan playing mahjong, so she criticized Xiaolan fiercely, which made Xiaolan very embarrassed.
Later, after Mo Xiaojuan came, she discovered this problem and decisively dismissed Xiaolan. Although Xiaolan begged bitterly, Mo Xiaojuan was not as soft-hearted as her cousin, she knew that if this Xiaolan didn't leave, sooner or later she would poke out a big basket.
Towards the end of the year, various investment summits and project matchmaking meetings made Mr. Jiang exhausted. Originally, he wanted to go home early, but he still decided to stay in the hotel, first, it was convenient to participate in activities and meetings, and secondly, he felt ashamed of Mo Xiaojuan. He can understand Xiaojuan's thoughts, but he doesn't want to continue when his wife's affairs have not yet come to light, and Mo Shuzhen, who is not cold in the bones, will not be at ease in the spirit of the sky.
As soon as he thought of his wife's affairs, Mr. Jiang felt sad. Since he was young, his wife has followed him, at that time he was nothing, dreaming of spring and autumn every day, but Mrs. Jiang has never blamed Mr. Jiang, she would rather work a few more jobs than let Mr. Jiang give up his dream, and it is precisely because of Mrs. Jiang's support that Mr. Jiang can have today's foundation.
If a man has great ambitions and often changes his mood between depression and mania, if he can't meet a good woman who can support him and give him advice, this man is likely to be idle and lonely for life.
Mr. Jiang is grateful for everything Mo Shuzhen has done for him, but because of an accident, the couple has no children. This is also Mr. Jiang's regret, and it is Mo Shuzhen's regret. But Mr. Jiang didn't care, she respected and felt sorry for her wife.
On the day of Mo Shuzhen's death, Mr. Jiang happened to be out of town to participate in an event, and after learning that his wife had an accident, Mr. Jiang chartered a plane to fly back to the magic capital, but it was too late, and his wife swallowed a large amount of sleeping pills and committed suicide. What Mr. Jiang couldn't figure out was how Mo Shuzhen had committed suicide suddenly? The police also conducted a detailed examination of the crime scene, and finally determined that Mo Shuzhen committed suicide.
Mr. Jiang felt that there must be something strange in this, but all the evidence showed that this was an ordinary case of suicide by swallowing sleeping pills. Madame did have depression before, but all this has changed a lot after Mo Xiaojuan came. Mo Shuzhen began to become active and cheerful, and occasionally bought clothes or something accompanied by Mo Xiaojuan. It may be that the death of the lady has too much impact on him, so he will be cranky and guess. After handing over the bracelet to the young man in the mountains last time, Mr. Jiang regretted it at first, because after all, it was a thought of his own, and he would take out the bracelet every time he was sad, just like Mo Shuzhen was still by his side. Later, Mr. Jiang also figured it out, maybe it was because his wife didn't want to see him so decadent, so he let himself give the bracelet to the young man in the dark, if so, he should put it down. It just so happened that Mo Xiaojuan called herself, so Mr. Jiang simply agreed.
In the evening, Mr. Jiang returned to his mansion by the river, and Mo Xiaojuan had already prepared dinner and lit a few candles. Mo Xiaojuan is nearly twenty years younger than Mo Shuzhen, with a plump figure, a good face, and exquisite curves wrapped in haute couture clothing, which complement each other. But any man will be moved, and today's Mr. Jiang is no exception, they push the glass and change the glass, the more they drink, the more they drink, and their eyes gradually become hazy.
"Brother-in-law, don't work so hard, leave the outside things to the company to do, your body will collapse like this!"
Mo Xiaojuan said with autumn water in her eyes and concern.
"Yes, from starting a business with your sister when you were young, until now, it hasn't stopped for a moment!" Mr. Jiang sighed.
"Brother-in-law, you are the most manly and infatuated man I have ever seen, and I envy my sister. Mo Xiaojuan gave Mr. Jiang a few chopsticks and put them neatly on the plate in front of Mr. Jiang.
"Well, this ......" Mr. Jiang was a little embarrassed, "You are also a good girl, you should get married, there is a suitable one when you go back, your brother-in-law will give you a house, a car, and everything you should have, your mother's family is far away, and I will take care of you for your sister." ”
The effect of the wine made Mo Xiaojuan feel a little sad, her eyes were red, and she snorted: "I don't have the good life of my sister, the man I meet is one-tenth as good as your brother-in-law, and I will be content." ”
Mr. Jiang was a little embarrassed, and even ate a few bites of the dishes on the plate, and drank half a glass of wine.
Mo Xiaojuan walked over, filled Mr. Jiang's cup, and added a few chopsticks to Mr. Jiang's plate, and then returned to his seat.
The wine became stronger, and Mr. Jiang's brain was also a little confused, when Mo Xiaojuan was picking up vegetables just now, Mr. Jiang smelled a woman's body fragrance, which made him a little uncontrollable.
The two of them silently drank the wine in the cup again, and Mo Xiaojuan suddenly asked, "Brother-in-law, where is the string of beads in your hand?"
When she was pouring wine just now, she suddenly found a small detail, that is, the beads in Mr. Jiang's hand were missing, you must know that Mr. Jiang almost regarded this string of beads as life, and when he was fine, he would take it out and look at it for a long time. Has my brother-in-law changed his mind?
"Oh, that string of beads, it's a gift, it's given to a young man I don't know, I thought he was a genius, and I wanted to ask him something, but I gave it to him as soon as my brain was hot, and now that I think about it, it's a bit stupid. Mr. Jiang replied.
Mo Xiaojuan was pleasantly surprised, tears almost welled up in her eyes, her two years of hard work, maybe it's really time to repay! Thinking of this, she poured the wine in the cup again, drank it all and said: "My poor sister, she also hopes that you will live happily in the world, but you are too bitter." Saying that, Mo Xiaojuan covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly.
Mo Xiaojuan's cry made Mr. Jiang helpless, he sat at the other end of the table cramped and uneasy, Mo Xiaojuan's cry became louder and louder, more and more sad, Mr. Jiang pondered for a moment, stepped forward, gently stroked Mo Xiaojuan's back, and comforted Mo Xiaojuan.
Mo Xiaojuan, who was crying sadly, fell into Mr. Jiang's arms and continued to cry.
Mr. Jiang couldn't help crying, and he hugged Mo Xiaojuan tightly.
Mo Xiaojuan struggled in Mr. Jiang's arms, then raised her head to look at Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang also looked at Mo Xiaojuan, and then Mo Xiaojuan sent her lips to Mr. Jiang's mouth, Mr. Jiang hugged Mo Xiaojuan, kissed her lips, and the other hand also started to swim up from Mo Xiaojuan's legs.
This night Jiang Nan completely let go, and his body and soul were released.
