Chapter 114: Mother-in-law
Mother Jiang nodded, "Yes, Xi Yao can say that, I didn't expect it." So I thought, he really likes you, right? It's a pity that you were still young at that time, and Xiyao went abroad again, so there wasn't much intersection between you. ”
"No, the distance has widened, but it has become a lot closer, Jiang Xiyao and I are good friends now, very good friends."
Chu He emphasized with a smile, Mrs. Jiang also smiled, and picked up the coffee cup again, "But what he wants is not the identity of a good friend, isn't it?" ”
"Auntie, fate can't be forced, you are a person from the past, you should know better than me."
"yes, so I have been thinking about a question in my heart for four years that I want to ask you face to face, I hope you don't feel abrupt."
Chu He nodded, extremely modest, "Auntie, you ask." ”
"Four years ago, my son was willing to pay all of his tuition fees to help you escape from your family of origin. You chose to refuse, and then you were dragged to read the eighteenth-line civil book for four years, have you ever regretted it? ”
"No regrets."
"Why?"
"Because that's what I should go through, Jiang Xiyao is sincere to me, but I don't like her, if I use him to help me escape from my original family, then I am essentially no different from those in my family. Since there is no difference, everyone is the same person, so why should I run away? ”
Chu He's answer was very direct, crisp, and neat, and this answer also made Mrs. Jiang like it in her heart.
In the Jiang family, how many girls have the expectation to fly into a wealthy family as a phoenix? Chu He had the opportunity in his hand, but he didn't do that, he originally thought that the little girl was Qinggao at that time, and deliberately wanted to capture Jiang Xiyao's appetite, so that he couldn't get it, and he would cherish it in the future.
Now, it seems, that's not the case at all.
But Jiang's mother still refused to give up, saying that it was good to be deliberately tempted, or to say that she really liked Chu He, she asked again, "Xiao He, then now if I say that if you marry our family Xiyao, you will be the future hostess of our Jiang family, I can let you wave your hand and sit on hundreds of millions of family fortunes." Including the fact that you can trample the people who have hurt you under your feet, would you? It's not an empty promise, it's a way for me to really give you a way to marry into our Jiang family, you have to think about it before answering me. ”
Chu He held the coffee cup with both hands, his eyelids drooped slightly, and his eyelashes curled slightly, shining under the illumination of the light.
"Auntie, I know it may be rude, but I have to say no again. I have experienced hardships and sorrows in my life. The reason why I have been able to persist until now is because the dream in my heart is not extinguished and helps me move forward. Look, my dream is not to marry into your Jiang family and have hundreds of millions of family fortunes, nor to trample those who have hurt me under my feet. It's not about marrying Jiang Xiyao to be a wealthy lady, so you may understand. ”
When Chu He spoke, Mrs. Jiang just listened quietly, and there was no trace of joy and anger on her face.
After Chu He finished speaking, she hesitated for a long time before she spoke leisurely, "Xiao He, you are really a good boy, I like you too, I really want to be your mother-in-law, I swear." ”
Chu He smiled shyly again.
"But what to do, my son doesn't seem to have much chance of catching you."
"Auntie, Jiang Xiyao and I are lifelong friends." Chu He emphasized.
"But I like you to be my daughter-in-law and call me a mother-in-law."
Mrs. Jiang's sudden confession made Chu He really embarrassed, her little face turned red all of a sudden, and she was as ashamed as an apple.
