Chapter 40: Mother

I also want to know that a younger brother with a prominent wife and many heirs, how could Jiang Li not be afraid? It is because Jiang Fan is under the oppression of Jiang Li's eldest brother, and he does not have any outstanding features.

Jiang Li's third brother is Jiang Mo, who died some time ago, this is no better than the two brothers, he is a muddy person who can't support the wall, and under the love of the two brothers, he fights cocks and walks dogs, bullies men and women, and causes trouble.

Jiang Mo's wife Jiang Yang did not leave Jiang Mo a son and a half daughter, after Jiang Mo died, Jiang Yang eloped with Jiang Yuanting, and then martyred, Jiang Mo's branch was broken.

However, I heard that Jiang Mo's lover who was away came to the door a few days ago and brought back a son, whether it was true or not, in short, the mother and son stayed.

Compared with the other three major families, the Jiang family can be regarded as weak, after all, it was started by darts, and it has only been more than ten years since it became one of the four major families, and its heirs are not as prosperous as other families, and now it is only ranked third.

Mo Jiao followed Jiang Li to the main room of the main courtyard and met the so-called mother-in-law He Danrou and half-sister He Shuilian.

He Danrou is sitting in front of the soft couch near the window and hugging her coquettish daughter, the winter sun is sprinkled on the two, the picture is warm and sweet.

The beautiful and warm scene stabbed Mo Yao's eyes a little painfully, and suddenly felt a little familiar, as if the long-ago dusty memory opened the floodgates in an instant, and strong emotions poured out, which caught her off guard, and hurriedly lowered her eyelids to hide her emotions, but her hands clenched unconsciously, and her fingertips pinched into the flesh of her palm.

It hurts, but it doesn't hurt as much as it hurts in my heart.

Jiang Li coughed a few times with his fist to his lips, and motioned to Mo Miao with his eyes, Mo Miao came back to his senses, took a deep breath, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, "Qiaoxin greets Madame." ”

As if she hadn't heard, He Danrou smiled and tapped her daughter's forehead.

Jiang Shuilian was not yet in time, a delicate and lovely girl in a pink cotton skirt, raised her eyes and caught a glimpse of Mo Jiao kneeling on the ground, pulled her mother's sleeve with a smile, and asked with a pout: "Mother, who is she?" How do you dress like a beggar? ”

Mo Yao: "......" This little girl's mouth is poisonous.

He Danrou glanced at her and said, "An insignificant person, Lian'er doesn't have to pay attention to it." ”

Jiang Shuilian said "oh", really ignored it, tired of being coquettish in her mother's arms, "Mother, I'm hungry, I want to eat chestnut cake." ”

"Okay, mother, I'll have someone bring it to you." He Danrou smiled indulgently, and immediately ordered the maid to go to the kitchen to bring a plate of chestnut cakes and other pastries.

Jiang Li coughed and stepped forward with a smile, "I said, Danrou, people are still kneeling here, at least let people get up." ”

He Danrou glanced at Mo Jiao and snorted coldly, "Where did the wild girl come from, she doesn't understand the rules at all." ”

Jiang Li sneered, "Didn't I tell you, she is my daughter, and she will be your daughter in the future." ”

Jiang Shuilian blinked and asked curiously: "Daddy, when did Lian'er have another sister, why didn't Lian'er know?" ”

Jiang Li immediately reprimanded, "What sister? She's your sister, older than you! ”

Jiang Shuilian turned her head and snorted, "I don't want it!" I don't have a sister! I don't want any sisters, my father and mother only have one daughter. Then he pulled He Danrou's sleeve and said coquettishly: "Mother, look at Daddy!" ”

He Danrou hurriedly comforted her daughter, looked at Jiang Li, and immediately sank her face, "Jiang Li, what are you yelling at Lian'er?" Who's your daughter in this family? I don't want to care about you getting into trouble outside, but you can't bring everyone home! As he spoke, he glanced at Mo Jiao, and said with disdain, "Who knows if it's biological?" If others treat you as a wronged person, you should be a good person! ”

Jiang Li's face turned red, and he was also angry, "How do you speak?" Is it my daughter I wouldn't know? With Yu Pei as proof, she can't be wrong, in short, she is my Jiang Li's daughter! ”

said with his back to Mo Yao, desperately glaring at his wife.

He Danrou's sarcasm swallowed instantly, turned her face away, and said coldly: "It's not that I don't recognize her, it's that she doesn't recognize me as a mother-in-law, didn't you hear what people shouted?" Oh, I don't even want to call my mother, where can I be someone's mother? The mother is someone else! ”

Jiang Li frowned and reprimanded: "What do you say?" He looked at Mo Yao again and urged: "Qiaoxin, don't call your mother yet!" ”

Mo Miao looked reluctant, but still called "mother" obediently.

Jiang Li was satisfied, and looked at his wife with a smile, "Listen, everyone is shouting, and you still don't let people get up?" In the evening, we have to feast on Liu Xian's nephew, why do we have to let her clean up, otherwise Liu Xian's nephew won't say that we have no rules? ”

He Danrou frowned, pursed her lips, and said, "Hmph!" There are no rules, and she Jiang Qiaoxin has no rules! What does it have to do with us? What can that little time teach? I can't afford to lose this face! ”

Jiang Li's face was unswerving, "After all, the person was sent back by Liu Xian's nephew, how can you come forward, you should look at your husband's face and let people take her down to clean up, huh?" "Speaking of the back, it's almost flattering.

He Danrou endured and endured, and finally waved his hand in disgust, "Okay, okay, it's up to you!" Tao Yao, take her down, clean her up, and teach her the rules well! ”

The last sentence was deliberately aggravated, and the maid standing next to He Danrou immediately responded, "Yes, madam!" Then he looked at Mo Yao, the gentle and obedient smile on his face disappeared immediately, his eyebrows and eyes were cold, and he was unceremoniously, "Let's go with the slave!" ”

Mo Jiao got up, Chao Jiangli and He Danrou were blessed, and said, "Skillfully say goodbye." Then he followed the unkind maid Tao Yao and retreated.

When the others left, Jiang Li instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help blaming his wife, "Look at you, haven't you said it all?" Why are you embarrassed again? ”

He Danrou snorted, her face unswerving, "I promised you not to embarrass her, but I just can't swallow this breath, isn't it just an illegitimate daughter......"

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused, looked at his daughter, and said softly: "Lian'er, you go back first, I have something to talk about with your father." ”

Jiang Shuilian got up reluctantly, and said "oh", "Okay, my daughter is leaving." ”

Seeing her daughter leave suddenly, He Danrou's face became fierce for a moment, "Jiang Li!" It's good that I didn't let you give an explanation, let me give that wild seed a good face, forgive me for not being able to do it! ”

"What wild species? That's my daughter too! You speak cleanly! No matter how good Jiang Li's patience was, he couldn't help but be angry.

He Danrou patted the couch, stood up, and said without showing weakness: "Talking to another daughter in front of your daughter, have you ever thought about Shuilian?" She's your daughter, isn't Shuilian? Jiang Li, you'd better give me an explanation! Our mother and daughter are not at your mercy! ”
