One by one, the young brats spoke sweetly, making Mrs. Jiang laugh. However, Mrs. Jiang did not feel at ease eating either. In the end, she still went to the kitchen; halfway through, she cooked more soup and dishes for everyone. She was pleased to see that everyone else was having a good time.

Mrs. Jiang prepared some fruits when she realized there was nothing else for her to do. She placed a large bowl of fruits on the table outside before entering Jiang Yao’s bedroom with a small plate.

There were no loud voices from the people drinking and chatting outside because they cared for Jiang Yao, who was resting in the bedroom. After applying makeup, Jiang Yao’s face was as white as paper. Mrs. Jiang would have been heartbroken if she had not watched Jiang Yao gradually change her complexion when she saw Jiang Yao lying on the bed with a sickly look.

“Eat some fruits,” Mrs. Jiang said. “Ask Xingzhi to get a durian for you tomorrow. Zhou Junmin got you two durians when he went to the city for a meeting yesterday. That child is very thoughtful. He looks lively and honest. I wonder if he has a partner yet.”

“Who do you want to introduce him to?” Jiang Yao took the fruit plate and asked with a smile.

“Xiaoxiao, that girl is very likable,” Mrs. Jiang said.

“Xiaoxiao seems to be dating someone,” Jiang Yao said. “As for Zhou Junmin, I really don’t know. He always said he was alone, but it seems that he once dated someone in Jin City, but it probably did not last long before they separated.” “Well, forget it. It’s useless for me to worry about other people’s children.”

Jiang Yao’s mother shook her head helplessly. “Actually, Xiaoxiao’s father wouldn’t be willing to let Xiaoxiao marry a soldier. Being a military wife is too hard. Seeing you like that, your father and I sometimes regret it.”

“Mom, if I don’t regret it myself, then why do you regret it? Xingzhi is very good, better than anyone else.” Jiang Yao threw herself into her mother’s arms and acted coquettishly. “Have you ever seen a husband spoil his wife as much as Xingzhi dotes on me?”

“That’s true. Your father and I have lived for so many years and have never seen anyone as blessed as you. You don’t know how envious the people in our village are when they talk about you and Xingzhi. In the past, people laughed at parents raising a daughter like you—a loser. Now, they compliment us when they see your father and me walking around.”

“That’s right! The man I have is the best in the world.” Only Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao could say such unscrupulous words.. If he were there, if he heard those words, Lu Xingzhi would shoot up into the sky!
