Chapter 207: Leave
"Tuk Tuk ......"
Mother Jiang symbolically knocked on the door and signaled, and without waiting long, she pushed the door open and walked inside. When I went in, I found that Jiang Linghan was sitting at the table alone, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Ahan...... What are you looking for from me? I don't think things have been quite right since you came back from that house. Mother Jiang knocked on the table, attracting Jiang Linghan's attention before asking.
Jiang Linghan seemed to have just heard the voice, raised his eyes to look at Jiang's mother, lowered his head again, and said with a puzzled expression: "Mom, I will take you out of country Y, are you willing to go with me?" ”
Mother Jiang thought she had misheard, and confirmed again: "Ah Han, what nonsense are you talking about?" Anyway, we have been in country Y well, why do we suddenly think about leaving? ”
"Mom, if I say, in the future, just a few of us will live together, and we will go to a place where there is no interest and no exchange to live again. If you want Ah Feng, he can still come to see us, but ......" Jiang Linghan hesitated and deliberately concealed part of the facts, after all, Jiang's father was too ruthless, and he was afraid that Jiang's mother would not be able to accept it.
"Just won't see your dad again? Ah Han, do you want to completely cut off relations with the Jiang family? Jiang's mother understood what he didn't say and asked.
Jiang Linghan himself knew that he was too selfish to do this, not to mention Wen Yi, it would be very unfair to Jiang's mother. But this matter, even if he could tell Jiang's mother, Jiang Linghan didn't plan to tell Wen Yi. He didn't know Wen Yan's temperament too well, if she knew, she would definitely rather sacrifice herself than let others be hurt because of it.
But he couldn't help it, he couldn't think of a better way.
"I don't agree." Without waiting for Jiang Linghan to reply, Jiang's mother took the lead in speaking.
"Ahan, you all know that I don't have a good relationship with your father, but do you know the reason?" Mother Jiang suddenly mentioned the past, and her eyes suddenly became melancholy.
"Your dad has someone he likes, and he has always had it. If it weren't for the marriage of family interests, I wouldn't have married him at all, and he should have flown with his first love by now. But he is different from you, and he finally compromises. But although he married me, he has never forgotten that person for so many years, and I know all this......"
Jiang Mu calmly talked about those past events, seemingly unmoved on the surface, but her trembling voice had already revealed her emotions.
Jiang Linghan was stunned for a moment, he didn't know that there was such a hidden secret. But what makes him even more puzzled is that since Jiang's father has derailed mentally, shouldn't Jiang's mother want to escape from this home more.
"But you say, we've been like this for so many years. It's just a cat and a dog, and I've had feelings for so many years, not to mention what about my father? Even if I know that he doesn't have me in his heart, I can't ignore him. After Jiang Mu finished speaking, she smiled bitterly.
If so, then everything makes sense. Why can Jiang's mother tolerate Jiang's father thinking about others for so many years, and why is she still reluctant to leave after knowing these things. In fact, it's not all a love word? Jiang's mother has feelings for Jiang's father, so she can't leave him.
Jiang's mother had already opened her words, and Jiang Linghan's words of persuasion were blocked in his throat. He looked at Jiang's mother, who was obviously fragile in front of him, but pretended to be strong to fight against Jiang's father for herself, and couldn't say a word about letting her live with him and Wen Yi.
It's not that he's afraid of fighting with Jiang's father, it's just that this kind of gambling, once he uses other people's lives as a bet and weight, he will have more concerns.
"I know Mom, it's okay, you can rest early." Jiang Linghan was stunned for a long time, but still said so.
Tonight, Jiang Linghan didn't go to Wen Yu for the first time. He locked himself in the bedroom alone, looking at the palm-sized photo of Wen Yu in front of him, as if trying to come up with a result.
"Mom, maybe you're wrong, I'm probably no different from Dad......" Jiang Linghan muttered at the photo.
Jiang Linghan got up early in the morning. He hadn't figured out what kind of attitude to treat Wen Yu with, but he saw that Wen Yu had already greeted him.
"What the hell is going on?"
As soon as the words fell, Wen Yi felt embarrassed in hindsight.
The two of them thought about the events of that night. Jiang Linghan was worried and didn't know how to answer, so he had to say stiffly: "It's nothing, don't think about it." ”
Wen Yi was stunned for a moment, this seemed to be the first time Jiang Linghan avoided her question, but it made her a little overwhelmed, and she even forgot what she wanted to say, so she could only answer: "Ah, then you can get busy first." After saying that, he left helplessly.
In the next few days, the two seemed to maintain a subtle tacit understanding, and they both had a sense of proportion with each other. Not only does it reduce the usual communication, but it is usually in a home, and when you look up and don't look down, you nod your head awkwardly.
This situation between the two of them naturally can't escape Jiang's mother's eyes. Although she didn't know why the relationship between Ah Han and Wen Yu was suddenly like this, she couldn't keep being estranged like this.
Therefore, she deliberately chose to have breakfast one day and brought the two together.
"Auntie, Ah Han, you've already gone to work, right?" Wen Yu asked embarrassedly.
"Hey, don't worry, this kid goes out early and returns late all day, and now he must have left early." Mother Jiang swore an oath, but her eyes glanced out of the door from time to time.
Wen Yi followed Jiang's mother out suspiciously, but as soon as he walked to the dining room, he collided with Jiang Linghan's line of sight in mid-air, and both of them saw a hint of surprise in each other's gaze.
"You... Come and eat. Wen Yu walked over and asked first.
Jiang Linghan lowered his head, avoided Wen Yi's gaze, and replied a little unnaturally: "Well, it's a little late to go out today." ”
Wen Yi was silent, and chose a seat a little far away from Jiang Linghan and sat down.
Halfway through, Jiang's mother called Wen Yi to come over and serve the food together, and only Jiang Linghan and Wen Xi were left at the dinner table. Jiang Linghan endured and endured, but he still couldn't hold back, and stepped forward to ask Wen Xi, "Wen Xi, has your mother told you anything recently?" ”
Wen Xi sat in his seat uncomfortably, completely deprived of the closeness he used to have when he called his father behind Jiang Linghan. In the past few days, because of Wen Yu, Wen Xi has been more or less affected. She didn't know much, but she could tell the difference between the two.
In her heart, although Jiang Linghan is her father, her mother is the bottom line she can't touch. If there is a problem in the relationship between the two, she will still stand on Wen Yu's side.
So now in the face of Jiang Linghan's question, Wen Xi shrank a little frightened, and replied in a low voice: "Mom didn't say anything, I just don't know what's wrong with Dad, so I ignore her." ”
Although Wen Xi was scared, he still hoped that the two of them would recover as before, so he had the courage to reply.
Jiang Linghan naturally saw Wen Xi's small action in his eyes, and his heart twitched with pain. In the next moment, because of Wen Xi's sensible words, his eyes were sour.
Jiang Linghan wanted to reach out to pull Wen Xi, but before he could touch anyone, he saw that Wen Yi had already walked over. After struggling inwardly, he withdrew his hand and sat back, his face returning to his previous indifference.
For a meal, Jiang's mother did not achieve her goal of matching the two, but made everyone eat tastelessly.
I thought that this situation would last for a while, but I didn't expect that in the evening, Jiang Linghan suddenly called Jiang Lingfeng and Jiang's mother, and told him that he must go back to dinner tonight, and he had something to inform.
Jiang's mother was excited for a while, thinking that Jiang Linghan had finally figured it out and wanted to talk to Wen Yi to ease the relationship, so she specially asked Jiang Lingfeng to buy a big bag of vegetables and come back early, she wanted to make a table.
"Mom, you're exaggerating, I didn't see you cook so many dishes when I came back." Before anyone arrived, they heard Jiang Lingfeng's complaint first. He carried several large bags in his left hand and his right hand, which were full of ingredients.
Jiang's mother couldn't get out of the kitchen, so she had to get rid of Wen Yu and open the door.
"Hey, sister-in-law, come and give me a hand, I'm going to be killed."
The door opened, Jiang Lingfeng saw Wen Yi, and handed over two large cabbages unceremoniously. The sister-in-law shouted familiarly, as if the two had become a family.
Wen Yi took it funny, but his heart was very full. Although she and Jiang Linghan have had an inexplicable conflict in the past two days, Jiang's mother and Jiang Lingfeng's attitude towards them has not changed at all, and they are still as cordial as ever.
After the three of them were busy, the sumptuous dishes were enough to fill a large table, and Jiang Linghan was late.
Seeing Jiang Linghan walk in the door without saying a word, Jiang's mother glanced hard at Wen Yu. Wen Yi understood and greeted him.
"You're back! I don't know what you're going to say, but my aunt has been talking about it all afternoon, and you see the dishes being cooked, and the table is almost out of place. After Wen Yi finished saying with a smile, he was about to pick up Jiang Linghan's coat, but he didn't expect to be dodged by him.
Jiang Linghan looked at Wen Yi complicatedly, with deep restraint in his eyes, but after a long time, he still said coldly: "Today's incident is not something to celebrate, there is no need to cook so many dishes." After saying that, he didn't even look at Wen Yi, and walked straight inside.
Wen Yi's hand was still frozen in mid-air, and she listened to Jiang Linghan's words with unknown meaning, and a bad premonition suddenly surged in her heart.
Mother Jiang saw that Jiang Linghan didn't come in with Wen Yu, although she felt strange in her heart, but she didn't show it at all, and hurriedly beckoned: "Come and sit, Ah Han, the place I specially left for you is here, next to Wen Yi." ”
In the past, in the Jiang family, Jiang's mother had to hold the posture of the high-ranking wife of the Jiang family, but now when she comes out of the Jiang family, she looks much more down-to-earth.
Wen Yi walked behind Jiang Linghan, and when he heard this, he threw a grateful look at Jiang's mother. She knew that this was specially arranged by Jiang's mother, and it seemed that their contradictions these days were still seen by Jiang's mother.
It's just that I didn't expect that Wen Yi had just sat down, but he heard Jiang Linghan ask rhetorically, "Why do I have to sit here?" Mom, there's still a vacant seat next to you and Ah Feng, I think that's good. With that, Jiang Linghan sat down.
Wen Yi's face turned pale, his eyes followed Jiang Linghan's figure, and when he saw that he really sat down, he panicked for no reason.
Jiang Lingfeng also had a mysterious face, but Jiang's mother couldn't help it first, and asked Jiang Linghan: "Ah Han, what's going on with your kid in the past two days, what are you asking, didn't you sit with Wen Yi before?" ”
Seeing that Jiang Linghan was still unmoved, she hurriedly said: "What's more, didn't you say it yourself, you can sit wherever your fiancée sits, I heard it clearly at the time, this is your refutation of your father's ......"
Without waiting for Jiang's mother to finish speaking, Jiang Linghan interrupted: "By the way, since I talked about this issue, I will talk to you about it today." ”
Jiang Mu looked strange, but Wen Yi's face was pale, as if she had guessed what he was going to say.
"Don't tell Miss Wen about your fiancée or anything, after all, my fiancée is Rongruo, don't let her misunderstand anything." Jiang Linghan finished speaking calmly, his eyes swept over Jiang Mu and Jiang Lingfeng one by one, but he didn't look at Wen Yi.
Wen Yi couldn't believe it, and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground with a "dang chang". She clung to the handrail beside her so that she wouldn't fall to the ground.
"You ......" Wen Yi opened her mouth to say something, but found that she couldn't ask a word, and she was not qualified to question Jiang Linghan's decision.
Mother Jiang glanced at Wen Yu worriedly, and then said with a puzzled expression: "Ah Han, do you know what you are talking about? We're all working hard for the two of you, how can you give up all of a sudden? ”
"So, who made you do all those useless efforts, she can't bring me anything, why should I marry her?" Jiang Linghan replied with a bored face, his fingers hitting the table impatiently, as if he didn't want to talk nonsense on this issue.
"Brother, you're not like that...... Isn't there anything wrong with you! Jiang Lingfeng asked with a questioning face. He knew very well what his brother's feelings were for Wen Yu, and he would never say such a thing so hastily. If there was no Father Jiang's handiwork, he wouldn't believe it.
Hearing this, Wen Yi raised his head and looked at Jiang Linghan expectantly. She didn't believe it, she didn't believe every word Jiang Linghan said today, she knew that Jiang Linghan was definitely not that kind of person. But she couldn't figure out what was wrong, if she had to say it, the contradictions between them in the past few days, except that she rejected Jiang Linghan that night, was Jiang Linghan's strange attitude towards herself after she came back from the Jiang family.
