Chapter 394 Pretending to be poor was just to test you.
Jiang He searched for the most suitable house.
They took Mr. and Mrs. Jiang directly to their destination and bought a house.
The house isn't big, but it's cozy.
Fully furnished, ready to move in.
It also comes with a garden where you can grow your own flowers and vegetables.
The surrounding area has convenient transportation and complete living facilities.
It's convenient to go to Jiang He's school or the train station.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were very satisfied.
Although the house is a bit expensive, Jiang He has enough money to buy it.
Jiang He now has some security.
After buying the house, they didn't rush back.
Instead, they stayed overnight in the new house to warm up.
The next day, the family returned to the village.
This time, the car didn't go directly into the village.
The villagers saw the three members of the Jiang family walking back, looking quite disheveled, and their car was gone. They had no idea what had happened.
Someone stepped forward and asked what had happened yesterday.
Father Jiang remained silent.
Jiang's mother wailed twice, exclaiming that it was almost the end of the year and the swindlers had resurfaced.
Jiang He from their family was scammed; she almost didn't make it back.
Jiang's mother still held onto the other person, hoping they could help her out and lend her some money.
Upon hearing that it was a scam, they borrowed money.
The man immediately ran away.
It's obvious that Jiang He was deceived.
I was definitely scammed yesterday.
It's probably fortunate that Mr. and Mrs. Jiang went with them; they were only scammed out of a little money.
Otherwise, this person would have been completely deceived.
What's the use of this girl reading so many books?
In the end, he almost lost both his money and his family.
We should stay away from the Jiang family.
How could the Jiang family possibly repay the loan?
We can't let the Jiang family cling to us.
With the Lunar New Year approaching, we mustn't let ourselves be tainted by the Jiang family's bad luck.
Those who had come to watch the Jiang family's festivities dispersed in a panic.
The three members of the Jiang family arrived home safely.
The rumors circulating in the village about the Jiang family became increasingly outrageous.
Say anything.
Uncle Jiang came to visit.
He heard that Jiang's father had even sold his blood to raise money.
He had said before that he couldn't do without a son.
She has three sons.
If we adopt one of them into Father Jiang's name, they can take care of Father Jiang in his old age.
But Mr. and Mrs. Jiang just wouldn't agree.
They said Jiang He could take care of them in their old age.
Now look what's happened! A young girl ran off to the city and has been away from home for years. This time, she's ruined the family.
Uncle Jiang came to visit again to talk about adopting a son.
This time I've learned that having a son is the only reliable option.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang still refused.
They were talking about adopting a son.
Uncle Jiang had his eye on their land.
This is someone trying to take over their things.
Father Jiang drove Uncle Jiang away.
That's impossible.
If he really cares about him, he might as well lend him some money.
As for the rest, no further explanation was given.
The old man who lived there has long since passed away, and the two families have long since separated.
There's no need to talk about your own family matters to outsiders.
When Mr. Jiang mentioned borrowing money, Uncle Jiang didn't linger.
The next day, Uncle Jiang came again, this time with Aunt Jiang.
Aunt Jiang went to find Jiang's mother and told her that she had found a good marriage for Jiang He.
This girl is getting older; it's time to consider marriage.
She had said before that it was inappropriate for a young woman to be constantly running around outside.
Look at this, they've been scammed.
Ultimately, we still need to keep them at home, under our watchful eyes, so that we can keep an eye on things if anything happens.
Aunt Jiang has a good family in the next village. Jiang He married nearby, so she can see them often and they can help each other out.
Moreover, the bride price they gave was quite substantial.
Having received this dowry, they no longer need to sell their blood to raise money.
Jiang's mother knew very well the good family that Aunt Jiang was talking about.
That person was remarried.
His wife in front of him was chased away.
There is also a one-year-old son.
Such a good family was also introduced to Jiang He.
This is really pushing Jiang He into a fire pit.
Both of Jiang's parents were very angry.
They grabbed brooms and chased Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang out.
Their two families broke off relations a long time ago; don't meddle in their affairs.
Seeing that Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang had been kicked out, the others dared not provoke them further.
Even when someone in the village slaughtered a pig for the New Year, no one came to greet Father Jiang.
Jiang's parents once again witnessed the ugliness of human nature.
They were having a hard time, and everyone around them was gloating.
If they knew they were doing well, who knows what thoughts would arise from their jealousy?
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang made a decision.
This year, we'll spend Chinese New Year at their new home.
The family of three spent a peaceful and uneventful New Year.
To avoid being disturbed by people every day.
And it would also disturb Jiang He's studies.
Jiang He studies in her room every day.
The villagers speak loudly and often barge in.
If the door is closed, they will bang on it loudly.
They couldn't even let Jiang He rest.
Who knows what gossip the villagers will have when they see Jiang He?
Although they didn't care, they didn't want Jiang He to hear those unpleasant words.
The house is all tidied up now.
Jiang's father took the chickens, ducks, and geese he raised at home to town to sell.
We took the remaining few to eat ourselves.
The pigs for the New Year have also been slaughtered long ago.
Because slaughtering pigs makes the yard very dirty.
Moreover, slaughtering a pig inevitably requires hiring people to help and treating them to a pig-slaughtering feast.
Ever since Jiang He went to university, the villagers have been gossiping about her, both openly and secretly.
She also didn't want others to point fingers at Jiang He.
Therefore, they slaughtered the pigs before Jiang He returned.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang packed their things.
They told the public that they planned to spend the Chinese New Year at Jiang's mother's house this year.
While I'm at it, I'll see if I can borrow some money.
In fact, Jiang's mother's family and Jiang's father's family were quite similar.
The old people are all gone.
Jiang's mother married far away; her family was in the next province.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang met while working away from home.
Neither side really approves of it.
However, the two still chose to be together.
The relationship between Jiang's mother and her siblings also became distant.
While the old man is still alive, he will visit once a year.
Now that the old man is gone, Jiang's mother has no reason to go anymore.
No one would be looking forward to Mother Jiang's passing.
However, the villagers did not know this.
In the past two years, even if Jiang's mother doesn't go back to her parents' home, she will still choose a day to go out for a few days.
In the eyes of the villagers, it was like going back to her parents' home.
Otherwise, Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang would go even further.
Without someone to rely on, one is easily bullied.
This was a fact that Mr. and Mrs. Jiang had known for a long time.
Jiang He spent the New Year with her parents in their new home.
This New Year was filled with laughter and joy.
Jiang He bought cell phones for her parents so that it would be easier for them to contact each other.
Moreover, you can video chat and see the other person.
Jiang He also took her parents to buy new clothes. It was the first time they had worn down jackets, and they were very warm.
They went to the square to join thousands in the countdown to welcome the New Year.
Enjoy the spectacular fireworks display.
After the New Year, Jiang He will be returning to school.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang returned to the village.
When they returned to the village, the two changed out of their new clothes.
He went back carrying a snakeskin bag.
They told the public that they planned to go to the city to work.
This part-time job is not fake.
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang actually found themselves a job.
The two were both under fifty years old; in the city, they weren't even retired yet.
Jiang's father works as a security guard in the residential community.
Jiang's mother found a job sweeping the streets.
Moreover, Mr. Jiang also plans to take a driving test.
This way, it will be convenient for the two of them to go home.
Jiang He didn't need to make time specifically to see them off.
Jiang's father went to the village chief and asked to rent out his land.
After settling things in the village, the two returned to the city.
