Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Old Story of the Jane Family
In Su Ci's impression, Grandma Jane is always dressed generously and decently, her hair is always meticulously combed, and she often has a dignified smile on her face. She walks with a straight waist, greets the neighbors cordially, and is a very elegant and beautiful old lady.
What impressed her the most was the flowers and plants planted in Grandma Jane's yard, every spring, the flowers in the small bungalow bloomed beautifully, and Su Ci would look inside for a long time every time she passed by.
Sometimes when I met Grandma Jane tending to flowers and plants in the yard, when she saw her probe, she would smile and wave to her, and when she entered, Grandma Jane would gently teach her to identify the types of flowers and plants in the yard, and would also stroke her head lovingly, and give her beautiful candy to eat.
Su Ci still remembers the feeling when Grandma Jian stroked her hair, her fingers were a little soft and warm.
At this time, hearing Jian Yi mention Grandma Jane, the memory of Grandma Jian in Su Ci's mind instantly came to his heart, and a little remembrance appeared in his eyes.
Jian Yi continued to speak:
"Grandma is a young lady from a big family in Yingcheng, and after marrying her grandfather, she followed her grandfather all the way to settle down in her hometown in Ancheng. The house that grandma has lived in Anseong all these years is actually the old house of the Jane family in Anseong......"
In Jian Yi's narration, Su Ci gradually understood the reason why Grandma Jian had been sticking to Ancheng all these years, and also knew the intricate old past that had been entangled all her life with Old Man Jian.
In those turbulent years of that year, Grandma Jian was detained for investigation because of her background, and Old Man Jian was also implicated because he refused to draw a line with Grandma Jian, and was stopped from working, and the husband and wife were sent to two places.
Later, a leader surnamed Ding found Mr. Jian and said that he could help Mr. Jian get out of the current predicament, transfer Mr. Jian back to Yanjing, and reunite Mr. Jian with his two sons, but on the condition that Mr. Jian must divorce Grandma Jian and marry his pregnant daughter Ding Ying.
Old Man Jian's official position was higher than that of this leader surnamed Ding before his suspension, how could he stand this kind of charity-style humiliation.
In addition, Grandma Jian is a real lady, and Old Man Jian loves her very much, if he was willing to draw a clear line with Grandma Jian early on, he would not have been reduced to the point of being suspended, how can he agree to the request of this leader surnamed Ding now.
But the place where Grandma Jian was detained at that time happened to be under the jurisdiction of Ding Ying's father, because of Old Man Jane's ignorance, Grandma Jane's side almost died.
In Jian Yi's low narrative, Su Ci knew that in order to save Grandma Jane's life, Old Man Jian still married Ding Ying, who was pregnant with a posthumous child.
Half a year later, that turbulent period ended, Ding Ying gave birth to Jian Guosheng, and the old man Jian was also reinstated, and then filed for divorce from Ding Ying, wanting to take back the real mistress of the Jian family.
But at that time, the leader surnamed Ding had been suspended, and the Ding family was about to fall, in order to find a good future for Jian Guosheng, and for the happiness of the rest of his life, Ding Ying naturally did not agree to divorce Old Man Jian.
Staying in Jane's house, she is the mistress of Jane's family, her son will have a bright future in the future, she will be the envy of Mrs. Jane, and leaving Jane's house, she is just a down-and-out single mother, living alone with Jian Guosheng, life naturally can't be compared with staying in Jane's house.
Ding Ying hugged Jian Guosheng, who had just reached the full moon, found Grandma Jian, and asked Grandma Jian to give their mother and son a way to live, and said that if Old Man Jian insisted on divorcing her, she would hold Jian Guosheng and crash to death in front of the gate of Jian's house, and she would also pull Old Man Jian into the water. At that time, Old Man Jian had not long been reinstated, and his position was not very stable, and if the divorce incident was too big, it would inevitably affect his future.
After thinking about it, Grandma Jian returned to Ancheng on the day Ding Ying left, and after Mr. Jian chased after him, I don't know what the couple talked about, Mr. Jian returned to Yanjing and never mentioned the topic of divorce again, and Grandma Jian also settled in Ancheng alone and lived.
From that time on, Mr. Jian would go back to Ancheng to visit Grandma Jian whenever he had time, until Mr. Jian's position became higher and higher, and the movement caused by the trip became bigger and bigger, which was too eye-catching, so he stopped going back to Ancheng to visit Grandma Jian, and instead let his two sons go back to Ancheng to accompany Grandma Jian, and later, it became Jian Yi and their generation to go back to Ancheng to accompany Grandma Jian.
Ding Ying stayed in Jane's house as she wished, but since the first day she married Old Man Jane, Old Man Jian never entered her room, and never let Ding Ying appear in the social arena as Mrs. Jane.
Although she bears the name of Mrs. Jane, she is no different from the guest Jane's house.
Although Jian Guosheng has the surname Jian, Old Man Jian has never concealed his life experience, nor has he ever promoted him, so everyone in the circle knows that Jian Guosheng is not a member of Jian's family, and they also know that Old Man Jian has never put these two mothers and sons in his eyes, so everyone will naturally not look at them in their eyes.
When Jian Yi said this, he lowered his head and hugged Su Ci tightly, and said in a low voice:
"Grandma's memorial day is approaching, and grandpa plans to go back to Ancheng next week to pay respects to grandma. When my grandfather called me the day before yesterday, I heard Ding Ying's voice on the phone, she actually wanted to follow her grandfather back to Ancheng to worship her grandmother, heh, she is also worthy!"
Jian Yi sneered coldly, and the coldness and disdain in his eyes directly swayed out:
If it weren't for her father's threat of her grandmother's life, her grandfather would not have married her, and her grandmother would not have been unable to return home, and she would have spent the rest of her life alone in Anseong.
Besides, it's not the old society now, and the concubine still has to go to the main mother to perform the concubine ceremony, not to mention that she is not a concubine, and her grandfather has never looked at her in his eyes. ”
What he didn't tell Su Ci was that the day before yesterday he listened to what Ding Ying said, and rushed back directly to beat Jian Guosheng half to death, he didn't believe that Jian Guosheng was beaten into the hospital by him, and Ding Ying still had the heart to go to Ancheng to block them.
Su Ci raised his hand and stroked Jian Yi's arm one by one.
He was obviously angry, his face was a little dark, and the muscles in his chest were a little tight.
Su Ci can understand Jian Yi's resentment, after all, Grandma Jian's early death is inseparable from Ding Ying.
Although Old Man Jian has always been thinking about Grandma Jian in her heart, she can't go back to her home, and she is staying in Ancheng alone, so she is not happy in her heart after all, plus she was deliberately suppressed by Ding Ying's father in the early years, and she was close to death in the middle, and Grandma Jane's body was hurt after all.
It can be said that if there were no father and daughter of the Ding family, the Jian family would not have been a family, and Grandma Jian would not have died early.
With Jian Yi's short and domineering temperament, how could he let Ding Ying chase after Grandma Jian's grave and continue to disgust her.
