Chapter 1413: Joking

Lin Dan sat in the passenger seat and said, "Let's go home directly."

Both of them were allocated housing by their units, but Jiang Yiyang and Lin Dan chose to live in a small courtyard house with a separate entrance and a separate house.

Just the couple and their children lived together.

As for the courtyard house with two entrances owned by Captain Jiang and Cai Xiufen, the couple would only live there with their children for two days during the Chinese New Year.

"My aunt is about to give birth. Did grandpa and grandma tell me where to hold the New Year's Eve dinner?"

"Nine out of ten, it will be in my aunt's mansion."

"That's right. My aunt is pregnant and it's not very convenient for her to move around. It's more appropriate to hold it in the mansion."

"Are my second brother and his family coming back?"

"Not sure yet."

Jiang Yiyang shook his head.

...

To bid farewell to the old and usher in the new, for the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, Captain Jiang and Cai Xiufang did choose Jiang Li's mansion. They didn't want their precious daughter to go back and forth on the road with her pregnant belly.

After all, if she accompanied them to celebrate the New Year, what would happen to the Jiang family?

This means that both sides have to be taken care of.

The one who suffers is undoubtedly the daughter!

Therefore, the venue was chosen to be the big house, so that the precious daughter does not have to run back and forth, and it is also lively for everyone to eat the New Year's Eve dinner together.

Jiang Li did not do anything, not because he did not want to, but because no one was allowed to do anything, even Jiang Dasao and several sisters-in-law were also isolated outside the kitchen.

In Minghan's words, the elders have worked hard for a year, and they should be thanked, and they should be the ones to do the work of the younger generation.

So, including Tuanzi and Tangyuan Guoguo, all the peers who have some cooking skills used their own special skills to make a dish and served it to the table personally.

With the sound of firecrackers, the flower hall was warm as spring. Jiang Li, Jiang Dasao and other sisters-in-law, as well as nieces and nieces sat at one table. Next to this table, Captain Jiang and his wife, Jiang Hongfa, Jiang Boya, Luo Yanqing, and Jiang Dage and his five brothers sat at another table...

In short, the several large round tables in the huge flower hall were all full.

And the New Year's Eve dinner on the table was very rich.

Everyone was eating the New Year's Eve dinner while watching the welcome party and laughing.

At about 9:30, Jiang Yiyang, Jiang Yihong and other cousins ​​who married local girls in North City went to their father-in-law's house with their wives and children.

"We don't actually have to go to my parents' tonight."

Lin Dan said casually while sitting in the car.

"We used to go there on New Year's Eve every year. If we don't go this year, it will be a bit embarrassing."

Jiang Yiyang showed no emotion on his face: "Besides, we have a car, it's convenient to go there, you don't have to think too much."

"I think we have been married for almost ten years, there is no need to be polite to my parents, and we are not not going on the second day of the Chinese New Year."

Her parents entertained guests on the second day of the Chinese New Year, and as a married daughter, she naturally had to go back to her parents' home to visit relatives.

Jiang Yiyang glanced at Lin Dan: "It's politeness, not politeness. It has become a habit since we got married. If I suddenly stop having New Year's Eve dinner with my parents-in-law, I guess I won't be able to sleep well tonight."

Hearing what he said, Lin Dan couldn't help laughing: "Are you feeling uneasy?"

"Yeah."

Jiang Yiyang did not deny it.

Lin Dan said with a smile: "Look how careful you are. You know how good my parents' impression of you is as a son-in-law."

"I know, but as a son-in-law, I always worry about being disliked by my father-in-law and mother-in-law. You are my daughter-in-law, so you can understand, right?"

Jiang Yiyang raised the corners of his lips. He was silent for a moment, and then said: "Besides, I am the eldest brother. If I change my previous habits and don't go to my parents-in-law tonight, what should the third brother do?"

Hearing this, Lin Dan thought about it and nodded: "You are right. The father-in-law of the third brother has only one daughter, my sister-in-law. If I don't go tonight, the father-in-law of the third brother can only spend New Year's Eve alone. It's lonely just to think about it."

"Dad is generous! Grandma and grandpa are very satisfied with you as a son-in-law, and they have praised you in front of me!"

The childish voice of a little boy came from the back seat. There is no doubt that it was from the son of Jiang Yiyang and Lin Dan. Speaking of which, in Jiang Yiyang's generation, except for Jiang Yihong who has three children, all the brothers who are married and have children have only one, and they are all one son.

However, Jiang Yihong actually has only one son. After all, his two twin daughters are not his own, but are from Yan Rou and her ex-boyfriend.

"Children should not interrupt when adults are talking."

Lin Dan turned his head to look at his son. The eight-year-old boy smiled and said, "I know!"

"The child didn't say anything he shouldn't say."

Jiang Yiyang smiled and shook his head.

"Just spoil him."

Lin Dan said this, but he didn't dislike his son at all.

"You know what our son is like, he is very sensible!"

Jiang Yiyang is extremely satisfied with his own children. Not only are they good at studying, but they are also very sensible and polite. They are not like other people's naughty children who cry and roll on the ground at any time.

...

Lin family.

"Just make a phone call. There's no need for your family of three to come and accompany us."

When they arrived at their parents' place, Lin Dan's family of three sat down at the table and had some food with Lin's elder brother and his family. Then, Lin Dan helped Lin's elder sister-in-law clean up the dishes and wash them together. She was called to the master bedroom by Lin's mother to talk.

"It's your son-in-law who wants to come and have New Year's Eve dinner with you and my dad. He said he's used to it. If he doesn't come tonight, he probably won't be able to sleep tonight."

Lin Dan said with a smile. Upon hearing this, Lin's mother tapped her forehead lightly: "The son-in-law loves you, otherwise, he would not come to spend New Year's Eve with us two old guys."

Clearing his throat, Lin Dan deliberately looked serious: "No, in my opinion, he is filial to you and my father from the bottom of his heart, and wants you to have a happy New Year's Eve."

Lin's mother smiled: "Yes, yes, the son-in-law is very filial to me and your father."

After a pause, Lin's mother said: "Marrying Yi Yang, you can be considered to have married the right person. Over the years, he is really a good child. He is down-to-earth and motivated. He treats people neither servile nor overbearing. He respects the elders and never speaks empty words.

The most important point is that he loves you. Mom is relieved in this life. You must live a good life with Yi Yang. Don't learn from your little aunt, who is so blessed that she doesn't know how to be blessed. She abandoned her son and gave up such a good man as your uncle and married someone else to be a stepmother."

There is no doubt that the little aunt that Lin's mother said to Lin Dan was Wang Pan.

As for how Lin's mother knew that Wang Pan and Jiang Guoan were divorced, it was naturally from what Lin Dan mentioned.

"I won't be stupid."

Lin Dan said: "I have been married to Yi Yang for so many years, and I have seen everything clearly. In the Jiang family, whether it is my grandparents, my parents-in-law, or other people in the family, there is no one with bad intentions, and the family is harmonious and has never had any dirty things. Only my former aunt, I don't know what she thinks,

always likes to make trouble for my aunt, and my aunt doesn't care about her, but she doesn't know what's good for her, and takes her anger out on my uncle, and finally even gets to the point of divorce, and the result? She regretted it not long after remarrying!"

"Hear Yi Yang say it?"

Lin's mother asked.

Lin Dan: "How can a grown man like him say these things? I heard my mother-in-law and second aunt chatting a few days ago and learned that my younger aunt had approached my younger uncle several times recently. It seems that she wants to remarry my younger uncle."

Mother Lin: "Divorced again?"

Lin Dan shook his head: "I don't know."

"It must be that she is not happy with her remarriage, especially compared with your younger uncle's ex-husband. I finally know that my husband is still the best."

Mother Lin sighed, and then she talked about Wu Yue, her niece from her husband's family: "Because of Xiao Ran's incident, your sister Yueyue's family has a bad atmosphere at home before the New Year."

Hearing this, Lin Dan did not say anything.

Then Lin's mother continued, "The family of the boy named Qiao Zheng asked your sister Yueyue's family to make compensation, otherwise, they would sue Xiaoran, saying that Xiaoran should bear the main responsibility for the car accident. The Qiao family has some connections, and it was indeed Xiaoran who hit Qiao Zheng in the car, causing the car accident. In addition, the other party lost a kidney and his legs were disabled. It can be said that the attitude of asking your sister Yueyue's family for compensation is very tough."

"How much?"

Lin Dan asked.

Lin's mother: "Five hundred thousand."

"This is not a small amount."

Lin Dan was shocked.

"It sounds like a lot, but compared to the life of someone else's child, 500,000 is just a number."

Mother Lin's tone was emotionless: "But they said they couldn't afford the compensation, so they let Xiaoran marry into the Qiao family and take care of their son for life."

"Xiaoran will definitely not agree and cry at home, right?"

Lin Dan frowned slightly: "Her character is simple to put it nicely, but stupid and unaware to put it bluntly, otherwise, how could she quarrel with her boyfriend while the car was driving and directly fight."

"She is still young and has been protected too well by your sister Yueyue's family."

Mother Lin sighed and said: "Xiaoran couldn't wait for the cornea transplant surgery, and she kept crying at home. Your sister Yueyue's family is naturally not in a good mood. , as expected, the Qiao family asked for another 500,000 yuan in compensation. I'm afraid there will be no joy in this year. Fortunately, your aunt's family did not make any demands, which should make your sister Yueyue's family feel relieved. "

Lin Dan: "I met sister Yueyue in the mall a few days ago. She talked to me for a long time, but did not mention the Qiao family's compensation."

Mother Lin: "What did your cousin say to you?"

"She asked about Weiwei's situation and my aunt's situation."

At this point, Lin Dan was silent for a moment and said: "If my sister Yueyue wants to raise money, Yiyang and I have saved some money. If we can't take out more, 10,000 or 20,000 yuan is no problem."

"The two families are still negotiating. If you need it, I will talk to you."

After listening to what Lin's mother said, Lin Dan nodded and said "hmm".

At the same time.

Jiang Li went back to her room to rest a little after ten o'clock because she was pregnant.

With a big belly, it is undoubtedly difficult for Jiang Li to hold on until the clock strikes midnight.

"Can't sleep?"

Luo Yanqing took a storybook and read it to the baby in Jiang Li's belly. When he finished reading a story of about 400 to 500 words, he saw that Jiang Li was not sleepy at all, so he asked.

"I'm thinking about something."

Jiang Li replied.

"What?"

Luo Yanqing put the storybook on the bedside table. He lay on his side beside Jiang Li, looking at her beautiful profile, and said: "Are you not going to tell me?"

"No."

Jiang Li shook her head and said: "It's about Weiwei's car accident. You know, there were three people in the car at that time. One was our Weiwei, one was Weiwei's classmate Xiaoran, and the other was an actor named Qiao Zheng.

I received a phone call two days ago. The person claiming to be the mother of the actor Qiao Zheng asked me if I would ask for compensation from Wu Yue's family. She said that if we wanted to, we could join them. After hearing this, I refused. "

"That's it?"

Luo Yanqing asked.

Jiang Li: "Yeah."

Luo Yanqing was puzzled: "Since you have refused, what else is there to think about?"

"Don't you think it was wrong for me to refuse? The Qiao family requested compensation from Wu Yue's family more than a month ago, saying that the car accident occurred because of Xiaoran's child's responsibility, causing her son to not only lose a kidney, but also both sides. If their legs are not good enough to walk, their whole life will be ruined. If they do not ask for compensation, it means that they are useless as parents and cannot seek justice for their children. Therefore, compensation must be obtained.

It's not that they are greedy for money, it's her son who needs this justice. After all, no amount of money can compare with her son having a sound body! Now that things have happened, if you don’t have an explanation, are you not worthy of being a parent? "

Jiang Li said without seeing any expression on Luo Yanqing's face. She asked: "Compared with that Qiao Zheng's parents, I didn't ask for compensation. You don't think I don't pay enough attention to Weiwei. I don't care about Weiwei." ?”

"You have your ideas. For me, your ideas are my ideas. As long as it is a decision you make, I will support it."

Luo Yanqing said this without hesitation. He looked into Jiang Li's eyes: "Besides, the traffic police department is handling the car accident. Whoever is responsible is the one who is responsible. What compensation should be made is also the responsibility of the traffic police. It’s up to the department to decide. Besides, the results have already been dealt with, so why do you need to worry about others’ words now?”

"Yeah, what am I struggling with?!"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I guess it's because I'm pregnant with a child. I have nothing to do every day, so I can't help but think about things, and I think a little too much."

Luo Yanqing touched Jiang Li's head: "Don't think too much, Luo Mingwei has recovered."

Jiang Li said nothing.

The compensation awarded to Mingwei by the traffic police department was partly paid by Song Xiaoran's family and partly by Qiao Zheng's family. It was caused by the car accident, which was caused by the two arguing and fighting in the car.

However, Song Xiaoran's compensation to Ming Wei was more.

Jiang Li originally thought that the matter had been settled after the traffic police department issued the results. Unexpectedly, the Qiao family unilaterally sued Song Xiaoran more than half a month ago and demanded large compensation.

It can be seen that the Qiao family did not accept the ruling made by the traffic police department.

Jiang Li and Wu Yue had been friends for many years anyway, and the two of them got along quite well. Now that they learned that the Qiao family was demanding a large amount of compensation from Wu Yue's family, to be honest, Jiang Li was a little worried about Wu Yue.

Not Our Lady of Jiangli, but in the 1990s, even though it has been 11 or 2 years since the reform and opening up, and even though money has been easy to make in recent years, this is for people who are doing business. As for those who rely on wages to support their families, although their monthly income There has been an increase, but it can only be a few hundred yuan.

Once the amount of compensation requested by the Qiao family is too large, it is 80% difficult for the Wu Yue family to afford it.

"I'm a little worried about Wu Yue."

Jiang Li spoke his mind.

Hearing this, Luo Yanqing was startled for a moment, and then said: "What is there to worry about? You have to know that your friend's family will get as much as the Qiao family. The big deal is to go to the court to file a lawsuit. In short, as long as you have the brains If you use it enough, you won’t be stumped.”

"In all these years in Beicheng, the only friend I have been able to talk to is Wu Yue. I once thought that having only one friend in this life is actually quite good. But I didn't expect that just because of that child Xiaoran, I was I don’t know how to face Wu Yue again.”

"You can continue to be friends with her."

"I don't think it's good. Our Weiwei was in a car accident because of Xiaoran and almost couldn't wake up. It would be unfair to Weiwei if I remained friends with Wu Yue."

"One code, one code, you don't have to worry like that. Furthermore, although the car accident is inseparable from your friend's daughter, in the end it was an accident, and your friend's daughter did not intentionally cause the car accident."

"Why do I think you look a bit like the Holy Father?"

Jiang Li joked with a smile.

"It's just a matter of fact."

Luo Yanqing looked calm: "Think about it for yourself. As for whether you want to maintain a friendship with that person, it depends on what you think in your heart."

"Got it, my Mr. Luo!"

Jiang Li replied to the man with a smile on his face.

…

The early morning bell rang at the New Year's Eve party on TV, signaling the arrival of the new year. In the Song family living room, Mr. Song stood up, waved his hand and said, "Go back to your room and rest!"

The incident caused by the granddaughter made the atmosphere in the family dull for more than three months, and even this New Year's Eve was not enjoyable.

Who to blame?

On the surface, it seems that the fault lies with the granddaughter, but in the final analysis, it is the family that protects the granddaughter too well, thus developing an overly innocent character.

Otherwise, why would troubles arise over relationships again and again?

With a long sigh, Mr. Song and his wife returned to their room.

"You really don't need to pay attention to the Qiao family?"

"What do you care about? Can you come up with 500,000, or can I, or can this family come up with 500,000?"

Mr. Song looked at his wife and said, "The traffic police department made a ruling not long after the accident. Our family has no objection to Xiaoran's responsibility. We will also cooperate with the Qiao family in the compensation that should be made." It's unreasonable to make trouble. If they dare to file a lawsuit, we will accept the lawsuit and see how the court decides."

"I want to open Xiaoran's mind and see what she is thinking about all day. Obviously the call the boy answered was from her sister, but Xiaoran..."

"Okay, what's the use of talking more now, just go to sleep."

Mr. Song lay on the bed. To be honest, he felt extremely disappointed with his granddaughter Xiaoran.

In another bedroom not far away.

"You should take good care of your daughter. I can't do anything about it. If she continues to make trouble at home, don't blame me for moving to live with my parents."

"Are you planning to give up your choice?"

"Whatever you say."

"No matter how many problems Xiaoran has, she is still our daughter."

"He has tricked the family again and again. I would rather not have this daughter."

"You...you are Xiaoran's mother. The child has spent the longest time with you since he was a child."

"What do you mean by this? Do you think I taught her all her stupidity?"

"I don't."

"Look at how Weiwei looks for a boyfriend, and then look at how she treats relationships, and look at your daughter. First she likes a boy who doesn't like her, and then she likes another boy just because they were filming together. A boy who treats feelings casually is prone to stupidity. Doesn’t she know that the driver is not allowed to interfere with the driving of the car? "

"I didn't expect that Xiaoran has a simple temper. You know this."

"No matter how innocent you are, can you do something like her?"

Wu Yue was very angry: "The corneas are still intact. If the Qiao family wins the lawsuit, we won't even be able to raise half a million even if we sell you and me together."

"The Qiao family is thinking nonsense! Listen to our dad. If the Qiao family wants to sue them, or just file a lawsuit, we will accompany them. Besides, their son was disabled due to a car accident, and our Xiaoran also lost a pair of eyes. "

"I don't want to talk to you anymore."

"The boat will straighten out when it reaches the bridge. It's useless for you to be anxious and angry now. But having said that, Mingwei's child is lucky. The doctor diagnosed it as difficult to wake up, but..."

"Why are you mentioning Weiwei? If Weiwei doesn't wake up, look at how our parents will get mad at us!"

After being reprimanded by Wu Yue, the man lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, turned his back to Wu Yue and stopped talking.

…

The Spring Festival passed in a flash, the new semester started, and Mingwei returned to school as normal.

That day, after lunch in the cafeteria, a female classmate from the same dormitory walked with Mingwei. Perhaps out of curiosity, the female classmate asked Mingwei: "How did you and Xiaoran get into a car accident?"

"Who told you that Song Xiaoran and I had a car accident?"

Mingwei looked at a classmate named Xu Na walking beside her.

"The roles of you and Xiaoran were replaced by a girl from the class next to ours and a schoolgirl one grade below us. Many people knew about this. Then it was reported that you two had a car accident on the way back to the hotel after work, and It is reported that you were seriously injured and fell into a vegetative state."

After listening to Xu Na's words, Ming Wei said, "Am I not okay now?"

"Didn't you tell me that you are fine now?"

Xu Na lowered her voice: "You are lucky to be able to wake up. If Xiaoran wants to see the light again, she may have to wait until a cornea transplant is available for her. Maybe when we graduate, Xiaoran's eyes will still be decorations."

Mingwei: "We are all classmates, so don't speak too harshly."

"I'm just making an analogy."

Xu Na smiled and then said: "Mingwei, it's not that I'm too talkative, Xiaoran is really not suitable for being friends sometimes."

Mingwei said nothing.

"By the way, have you ever visited Xiaoran before and after the Spring Festival?"

Xu Na asked suddenly. She didn't feel embarrassed that Ming Wei didn't respond to her previous sentence.

"My mother is pregnant. I have to help with housework at home and take care of my mother. I don't have time to go out."

After hearing Mingwei's words, Xu Na's eyes immediately lit up: "Your mother is so young and beautiful that she looks like a fairy. The baby she gives birth to will definitely look like a little fairy!"

"As you said, my little brother is indeed very good-looking, but none of my younger brothers and sisters are bad-looking."

Jiang Li gave birth to a baby boy safely the day before the student registration.

The child is white and tender when he is born, like a little fairy child, with delicate eyebrows. It can be said that he has completely inherited the advantages of Jiang Li and Luo Yanqing. (End of chapter)
