Chapter 19
Are You Pregnant?
“What’s wrong? Who would come over at this hour? And why does this voice sound so familiar?” Jiang Shan finished the last mouthful of porridge in his bowl, then wiped his mouth and hurried out to open the door.
“Jiang Xi! You jinx!” He saw a woman in a red wedding dress standing outside the door. She was crying mournfully, and the makeup on her face was smudged from her crying. Her tears and sweat were stuck together. She probably ran all the way to the Jiang family’s house. Behind the woman was Yang Shaoqun’s wife, Li Jintong. At this time, she was looking at Yang Fen, who came out after her, with an angry face!
“Hey, isn’t this Yang Kun’s bride? What are you doing at my house so late at night? Are you here to see your husband Yang Kun’s ex-fiancée? Are you planning to come over and kowtow to apologize and say that you stole my little sister’s fiancé?” Jiang Shan looked at the bride in the wedding dress and said with a straight face.
Yang Fen glared at Jiang Shan, who was talking nonsense and then pushed Jiang Xi to make way. She went over to help the bride and asked with concern, ” “What is this? Chen Zhaodi, it’s your wedding day with Yang Kun. Why are you crying like this? Did something happen?” Yang Fen’s expression was a little awkward. Jiang Guoyou was still lying in the room. She had not had time to ask Yang Shaoqun what he meant, and now Yang Kun’s wife, Chen Zhaodi, had come again …
“What happened? Do you think your Jiang Xi is a jinx to Yang Kun? Your Jiang Xi is a jinx!” Chen Zhaodi’s face was covered in tears and she stomped her feet in anger.
Nowadays, the farmers’ lives were not good. Even if the Happy Village was a well-known rich village, they were reluctant to light oil lamps on normal days. At this moment, when they heard Chen Zhaodi’s cries outside the door, many lights were lit up in the village one after another. Even the dogs at the village entrance stopped barking.
After Chen Zhaodi finished crying, Yang Shaoqun’s wife, Li Jintong, also pointed at Yang Fen and scolded, “Who doesn’t know that your Jiang Xi is an unlucky person? Is she here to destroy my Fengshui on purpose? My poor son, how is our family going to live like this? how is our family going to live!” Li Jintong slapped her thigh and sat at the door of Yang Fen’s house, crying. More and more villagers came to watch the show. Even the dark night could not stop their gossiping eyes. Some families who were having dinner also stood at the door and looked at the Jiang family, afraid of missing any important information.
“What do you mean by that? I asked you what happened to your family, but you refused to answer. Now you’re saying that my younger sister, Jiang Xi, is unlucky and jinxes your family? Are you bullying us because you’re from the Yang family?” Jiang Da looked at Li Jintong with a frown. In terms of seniority, Li Jintong was his aunt.
Jiang Yao could not help but say to Li Jintong, “Looking at you guys crying, could it be that the heavens have opened their eyes and something happened to your Yang Kun? Now, you want to extort money from our Jiang family?” Jiang Yao felt that he was going to get married soon. At this time, he could not give his family’s money to outsiders, so he was very sensitive to money.
Jiang Xi did not think much of it. She took two steps forward and carefully looked at Chen Zhaodi’s face. Then, she clicked her tongue twice, scaring Chen Zhaodi so much that she took two steps back. However, she still straightened her back and looked at Jiang Xi. She said in a weak manner, “What are you doing? I know you’re jealous that I can marry Yang Kun, but if you have something to say to me, you can come to me. Why did you do it to Yang Kun?” Chen Zhaodi was the daughter-in-law who had just entered the family. At this time, she was trying her best to make Li Jintong like her. As expected, after hearing Chen Zhaodi’s words, Li Jintong looked at Chen Zhaodi with an even friendlier expression.
“How did I harm Yang Kun? As for you, why are you running around with a big belly instead of lying at home? Aren’t you afraid of losing the child?” Jiang Xi frowned and looked at Chen Zhaodi seriously. Chen Zhaodi’s eyebrows were filled with joy. It was not the joy of a newly married couple, but…
As soon as Jiang Xi said that, the crowd fell silent. They all stared at Jiang Xi with wide eyes as if they had seen a ghost. Li Jintong’s lips trembled in excitement. She pulled Chen Zhaodi over and asked excitedly, ” “What? A big belly? You’re pregnant?”
“You’re talking nonsense! Even if you’re jealous that I married your cousin, you can’t speak such nonsense to ruin my reputation!” Chen Zhaodi’s hands trembled as she looked at Jiang Xi with red eyes. She wanted to tear Jiang Xi’s mouth apart!
