Age of Rebirth: The Stepmother of the Sick Beauty Only Wants Salted Fish

Chapter 1256 Jiang Li Was Almost Blackmailed

The Xi family lives in the innermost part of the compound. The environment is quiet and the small courtyard covers a large area. It is indeed a long distance from the entrance of the compound.

"Oh well."

He tugged on Xi Chenyu's sleeves and sat Xuanxuan back on the sofa.

Gao Xinyue said nothing.

Mr. Gao was confused and couldn't help asking Mr. Xi: "Does the sister Guoguo mentioned by Xiaoyu and Xuanxuan refer to Mr. Jiang Boya's granddaughter?"

"Yes, Guoguo is a nickname, and the child's nickname is Luo Mingxi."

Xi Lao responded with a smile.

Mr. Gao: "So...the Aunt Jiang mentioned in Xiao Yu's mouth is Mr. Jiang Boya's daughter?"

Mr. Xi nodded: "That's right."

There was the sound of a car stopping at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Aunt Jiang and the others are here, Xi Chenyu, let's go to the door of your courtyard quickly."

Sneaking off the sofa again, Xuanxuan and Xi Chenyu walked out of the living room with their short legs.

After a while, the sound of Guo Guo's milk could be heard in the yard: "Brother Xi, my fourth brother and fifth brother are not late, are we?"

Xi Chenyu: "No."

Guoguo: "I checked the time before I left! By the way, Brother Xi and Sister Xuanxuan, this is my mother, you all know her, but this is my eldest brother, you haven't seen her before, so you can get to know her now."

"Hello."

A faint smile appeared on Mingrui's lips, and he greeted Xi Chenyu and Jiang Xuanxuan, two little carrot heads.

"Xiao Jiang is here, come and sit in the living room."

At the door of the living room, Mr. Xi saw Jiang Li walking over and Mingrui carrying two big bags of fruit. He couldn't help but said: "You are such a kid. As far as my relationship with your grandfather is concerned, you can come home." , I’m already very happy, what should I bring!”

Naturally, this was said to Jiang Li.

"I happened to meet a fruit seller on the road, so I just bought some. It's not worth a lot of money. I hope you don't feel shabby."

Jiang Li smiled and walked into the living room with Mr. Xi. When she saw Mr. Gao, she greeted him politely: "Hello."

Mr. Gao responded with a smile and a slight nod.

"Lao Gao, do you need me to introduce you?"

Mr. Xi asked Mr. Gao with a smile. Hearing this, Mr. Gao shook his head: "I have seen Comrade Jiang Li on TV and in newspapers. She is an excellent athlete in our country."

"Then do you know her other identity?"

Xi Lao asked with a smile.

Mr. Gao looked gentle. He looked at Guoguo and Tangyuan, and then said: "Comrade Jiang Li is also the daughter of Mr. Jiang Boya and the lover of Academician Luo."

He really didn't expect that the extremely beautiful woman in front of him was not only an outstanding national athlete, but also the wife of Academician Luo, and she had such a kinship with the Jiang family.

At this moment, recalling what Wang Xiaohui had done before, Mr. Gao felt more and more that his younger daughter-in-law was stupid.

You bully others without first finding out what kind of social relationship the other party has!

Jiang Li didn't stay long at Xi's house.

reason?

She had made an appointment with Wu Yue to go shopping in the department store together, so she drove Mingrui and the three dumplings to Xi's house, and then went to Wu Yue's house to pick them up.

As for why Mingrui came to Xi's house with the three dumplings, it was simply because Jiang Li was worried about the three little ones. Well, Mingrui, the eldest brother, wasn't worried either, so he offered to keep the three dumplings company.

What I want to say is that after Jiang Li drove Mingrui and the three dumplings away, Minghan and Mingwei regretted it. Minghan regretted that she should not have made an appointment with her classmates to play ball yesterday, and Mingwei regretted that she should not I went to the library to read with my good friend Song Xiaoran. In short, the two brothers and sisters were so regretful that they felt that they could not accompany the three dumplings to protect the safety of their younger brothers and sisters. elder sister).

Jiang Li undoubtedly found this funny and bluntly said that Minghan and Mingwei were playing tricks.

Mingrui glanced at them coldly, scaring them so much that they immediately behaved themselves and did not dare to continue to cause trouble in front of Jiang Li and the three Tuanzi.

After bidding farewell to Mr. Xi and Mr. Gao, and telling Mingrui and Tuanzi a few words, Jiang Li drove away, but just as he was about to leave the gate, a figure suddenly staggered and fell to the ground.

If Jiang Li hadn't stepped on the brakes in time, the fallen figure would most likely have been run over by the wheels of the car.

In this situation, even if it has nothing to do with Jiang Li, out of humanitarian spirit, it is necessary for Jiang Li to get out of the car and take a look.

In fact, the moment he saw that figure, Jiang Li recognized who the other person was - Feng Lu.

Yes, the figure that fell to the ground was Feng Lu.

This person got off the bus. His feet were floating, his expression was in a trance, and he looked particularly bad.

"Lulu! Lulu, what's wrong with you?"

Just when Jiang Li got off the car and was about to walk to Feng Lu, Fang Su hurried over from the sidewalk on one side. She helped Feng Lu and leaned in her arms, her eyes full of anxiety and uneasiness.

Feng Lu opened her eyes with difficulty. She shook her head in Fang Su's arms: "Aunt Fang, I...I'm fine..."

But Fang Su didn't think so. When she saw Jiang Li, she asked without thinking: "Is it related to you that my Lulu fell to the ground?"

Then she asked again: "Why are you here?"

Before Jiang Li could say anything, one of the comrades on duty stepped forward to testify for Jiang Li, saying that Feng Lu's fainting had nothing to do with Jiang Li.

Fang Su didn't believe it, but she also knew that the comrade on duty would not lie. In the end, she glared at Jiang Li fiercely, and ordered the comrade on duty who commanded Jiang Li to testify to help her carry Feng Lu back to Feng's house.

With no "obstacle" in front of the car, Jiang Li returned to the car and drove away in a blink of an eye.

She didn't take Fang Su's accusation to heart at all, as if she didn't hear anything and her mood was not affected at all.

Xi's family.

"Old Xi..."

After Jiang Li said goodbye to Old Xi and drove away, Xi Chenyu took Tuanzi and Jiang Xuanxuan upstairs to read books. Gao Xinyue followed them. Behind the little guys, Mingrui, the "guard", was indispensable.

Seeing that only he and Old Xi were left in the living room, Old Master Gao couldn't help but look upstairs, and then some hesitation appeared in his eyes: "Did you find anything?"

"..."

Old Xi didn't understand.

Old Master Gao lowered his voice: "Just the boy who introduced himself as Luo Mingrui, don't you think he looks like the eldest son of the Xiao family?"

"Xiao Jin?"

Seeing Old Master Gao nod, Old Master Xi instantly understood what the other party meant, but he didn't show any strangeness on his face, and said lightly: "There are many people who look alike in this world, you are not thinking about something?"

"What are you talking about! What do you mean I am thinking about something, can't you see that the boy is 60% similar to Xiao Jin, especially the pair of eyebrows, which are exactly the same as Xiao Jin."

Old Master Gao felt very strange, he couldn't understand why Mingrui looked like Xiao Jin.

"When did you become a nagging woman?"

Old Xi said casually: "If I remember correctly, Comrade Luo Yanqing's former in-laws are the Feng family. If you say so, then you are talking about the daughter of the old Feng family..."

Old Xi didn't say the last four words without knowing how to behave, but Old Master Gao knew what Old Xi was going to say. He was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't wrongly accuse me, I definitely don't think so, let alone say so."

Speaking of which, the Xiao family and the Feng family both live in this compound, but compared to the Xi family and the Gao family who live deep in the compound, the Feng family and the Xiao family are slightly forward.

But they are in the middle and back.

This invisibly shows that in this compound, the further you live in, the higher your status as the head of the family.

Because the deeper you live, the quieter the environment, and the more suitable it is for elderly people who like quietness to live at home.

In other words, among Mr. Xi, Mr. Gao, Mr. Feng, and Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xi undoubtedly has the highest status and position, followed by Mr. Gao, and then Mr. Feng and Mr. Xiao.

Mr. Xi looked at Mr. Gao, his tone still light: "You didn't say that, but you mentioned that Comrade Luo Yanqing's eldest son looks like the eldest son of the Xiao family."

"Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing."

Mr. Gao smiled awkwardly, but said: "I heard a lot about the daughter of the Feng family liking the second boy of the Xiao family."

"That's true."

Mr. Xi nodded: "But the second boy of the Xiao family and the little girl of the Qin family got together."

Seeing that Mr. Gao didn't say anything for a long time, as if he was thinking about it again, Mr. Xi's eyebrows jumped, and he couldn't help but frown. He kept asking, "You don't want to say that the child looks like the second son of the Xiao family, do you?"

Grandpa Gao was embarrassed. He coughed twice, waved his hands, and said uncomfortably, "No, no, I'm so old, and I'm not a woman. Why do I have to say those things?!"

Old Xi didn't say anything, and he heard Grandpa Gao continue, "But I heard my wife mention it three months ago. She said that the daughter of the Feng family survived. What do you think about this?"

"I don't know."

The implication is that he doesn't understand the situation and has no right to speak.

Grandpa Gao's mouth twitched, and he snorted, "Chatting a few gossips, look at you being serious."

"Who doesn't have some troubles in their family? We are talking about others here, and maybe others are talking about our own family affairs at home."

How could Grandpa Xi not know about the Feng family's affairs? Besides, Feng Lu lost her unborn child because of Han Qian, and her uterus was removed. She lived in the Feng family for more than a day or two. She lived there for a long time. Who can ensure that no one will visit the Feng family?

Once someone comes to visit, even if they don't know the details, how can they guess something?

Then, when chatting with others, they can bring up one or two sentences, and there will be almost no suspense.

Otherwise, how did Mr. Gao hear about Feng Lu's "death and resurrection" from Mrs. Gao?

And Mr. Xi was not surprised at all when Mr. Gao mentioned that Feng Lu was alive.

It can be seen that many people in the compound are probably aware of Feng Lu's "death" and resurrection.

And today, Feng Lu returned to the Feng family in broad daylight. Without thinking too much, everyone in the compound should know about it soon.

Second floor.

"Brother Xi, I envy you so much, you have so many comic books!"

The Xi family has a reading room specifically for the children at home. Therefore, the books in this reading room can be said to be accumulated by Xi Chenyu's brothers, which naturally attracted Guoguo's surprised eyes.

Xi Chenyu: "If you like, take it. I'll give it to you."

Guoguo shook her head: "No, no, my grandfather has set up a reading room for me and my brothers in the old house. There are many books on the bookshelves inside. In addition, my mother also set up a reading room for me and my brothers in our big house. If you don't believe me, you can ask my eldest brother and my fourth and fifth brothers."

"Yeah."

Mingrui and Tuanzi Tangyuan nodded at the same time when Xi Chenyu looked at them.

"You don't have so many picture books at home. I have a lot. It's nothing to give you some."

Hearing what Xi Chenyu said, Guoguo responded in a baby voice: "There are not so many picture books in my family, but there are picture books that my big brother, second brother and sister have read, and there are quite a few in total!"

After a slight pause, Guoguo pulled Xi Chenyu's hand: "Brother Xi, I can read a few more picture books at your house now. If I want to read more in the future, I will tell you in the kindergarten, and you can bring me a few books when you go to school the next day. By the way, I will also bring good books to Brother Xi!"

Xi Chenyu smiled: "Okay."

Jiang Xuanxuan said at this time: "Sister Guoguo, don't forget to bring me good books."

Guoguo: "I won't forget!"

Several little guys sat in a row on the children's chairs, with a picture book in front of each of them, and soon they all read them very attentively.

In order to facilitate the children at home to read books, the elders of the Xi family prepared children's tables and chairs in the reading room, and laid thick carpets on the floor, and wrapped the edges and corners of the seats with cotton pads to prevent the children from bumping or falling.

There are also special bookshelves for children on the bookshelf. At the age of Tuanzi Sanzi now, he can stand on tiptoe and reach out to get the books he likes from the top shelf.

Mingrui is also reading at this moment. He leans on the adult desk next to him and flips through the pages one by one. From time to time, he looks up at Tuanzi Sanzi, with a slight smile on his lips, and his eyes are gentle and doting. If someone comes to the reading room on the second floor now and sees this scene, he will definitely sigh "the years are quiet and good".

After an unknown amount of time, Gao Xinyue felt that reading was meaningless. She wanted to go to the living room to find Grandpa Gao, but she was reluctant to part with Xi Chenyu. So, she moved her mouth, stood up and came behind Xi Chenyu, and poked Xi Chenyu's back with her index finger: "Brother Chenyu! Brother Chenyu, let's go downstairs to play!"

Xi Chenyu frowned. He hated being disturbed when reading. He turned his head and looked at Gao Xinyue: "Go by yourself."

"..."

Gao Xinyue pursed her lips, and tears instantly filled her eyes: "I want to be with Brother Chenyu, is that not okay?"

"Pop" sounded.

This was the sound of Jiang Xuanxuan slapping the table. The little girl stood up angrily, her eyes wide open, and said to Gao Xinyue: "You are annoying, do you know? We are all reading here, and you are the only one who is too busy. If you want to play, go downstairs and play by yourself. Don't disturb us reading comic books here!"

"Jiang Xuanxuan, I didn't talk to you!"

Gao Xinyue's voice was not loud, but her tone was full of grievance, as if she was bullied by Jiang Xuanxuan.

"You didn't talk to me, but I hate it when I hear you talking!"

Jiang Xuanxuan pointed to the door: "If you want to leave, leave quickly, don't disturb us here anymore!"

After enduring again and again, Gao Xinyue finally couldn't help it, and opened her mouth and cried "wow".

Hearing the cry of his precious granddaughter upstairs, Mr. Gao couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly got up and went upstairs.

Mr. Xi followed closely.

This is his own home, and something happened between the children. He, as the owner, can't just ignore it.

More than ten minutes later, Mr. Gao left the Xi family with Gao Xinyue in his arms, while Mingrui brought Tuanzi and three children, Xi Chenyu and Jiang Xuanxuan, to the first floor.

"Sister Guoguo, come on, I'll take you around our compound."

Holding Guoguo's hand, Jiang Xuanxuan took Guoguo to the door of the Xi family's living room. Tuanzi and Tangyuan naturally walked behind Jiang Xuanxuan and Guoguo. Seeing this, Xi Chenyu stared at Jiang Xuanxuan's back for a long time, said hello to Mr. Xi, and hurriedly chased after them.

Mingrui was naturally worried that Tuanzi and three children would be taken out by Jiang Xuanxuan. After all, Jiang Xuanxuan was only a little older than Tuanzi and three children. Even with Xi Chenyu by her side, she was still a little kid.

He smiled and said to Mr. Xi, took a long step, and soon caught up with the five little guys.

Jiang Xuanxuan was a good guide. She introduced Guoguo and Tuanzi and Tangyuan wherever she went. If there was anything that was not introduced in place, Xi Chenyu would help supplement it.

The five little kids were so cute walking together, and many passersby came up to them to have fun.

But when their eyes fell on Mingrui's face, most of the passersby were stunned for a moment, and one of them didn't even come back to his senses after Mingrui followed the five little guys away.

...

Xiao's family.

"Didn't you go to visit your friends? Why are you back so soon?"

Father Xiao was sitting in the living room reading a newspaper. When he heard the hurried footsteps entering the living room, he moved his eyes away from the newspaper and looked at Mother Xiao in confusion.

Yes, it was Mother Xiao, the mother of the two brothers Xiao Jin and Xiao Shen, who walked into the living room.

"Old Xiao!"

Mother Xiao panted heavily, picked up Father Xiao's water cup and drank a sip, and said, "Guess what I saw outside just now!"

"..."

Father Xiao felt puzzled. How could he guess?

"I didn't follow you out, how can I guess?"

Looking a little embarrassed, Xiao's mother said: "Okay, my words are wrong."

Pursing her lips, she calmed down and spoke again: "I saw a boy of fifteen or sixteen in our compound. Who do you think he looks like?"

Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Xiao's father looked helpless and said casually: "You don't mean to say that the boy looks like our eldest and second son, right?!"

Hearing this, Xiao's mother gave Xiao's father a thumbs up: "Old Xiao, you are really amazing. You can guess this. However, the boy doesn't look very much like the second son, but looks 60% to 70% like our eldest son. Don't you think this is amazing?"

Xiao's father: "..."

A boy of fifteen or sixteen looks 60% like his eldest son. Is this a coincidence, or is there an unknown reason?

Thinking of this, Father Xiao couldn't help but think of an incident more than ten years ago. His eldest son Xiao Jin suddenly asked him to transfer to a small county town in a remote area to work. At that time, he always felt that the matter was not simple, and he thought that the matter might be related to his second son and the little girl of the Feng family, but soon he felt that it was impossible, so he didn't think about it further.

Just because he was confident in the character of his eldest son.

So, without saying much, he used the job transfer as an excuse to let his eldest son go to the grassroots to train for a few years, and then transferred him back to the North City to work.

But what his wife just said made him think about his early years again.

The little girl of the Feng family liked his second son since she was a child, and he even joked with Old Feng to arrange a baby marriage for the two children, but his second son didn't like the little girl of the Feng family, and as the two grew older, the second son Xiao Shen could be said to be more and more disliked the little girl of the Feng family, but liked the little girl of the Qin family who always ran behind the little girl of the Feng family, and strongly asked him to make it clear to the Feng family that the so-called baby marriage did not count.

He naturally informed the Feng family about this matter. After all, marriage is not about making enemies. He couldn't force the little girl of the Feng family and his second son together just because his son didn't like it, which would be unfair to his own son and the little girl of the Feng family.

Therefore, the marriage was cancelled by the two families, but he accidentally found that the eldest son looked at the little girl of the Feng family with a strange look in his eyes. Then... the second son accompanied the little girl of the Qin family to live in the countryside. When he got home from get off work that day and walked into the living room, he saw the little girl of the Feng family running down from the second floor of his house with red and swollen eyes. Not long after, he saw the eldest son hurried downstairs.

He called the eldest son and asked what happened, but the eldest son didn't say a word.

Later, he mentioned this matter to his wife, and his wife concluded that the little girl of the Feng family probably knew that his second son accompanied the little girl of the Qin family to live in the countryside, and didn't want to believe it, so she ran to their house to confirm. Unexpectedly, the eldest son told her that the news was true. She couldn't bear the blow for a while, so she ran out of their house crying.

He believed it, but within two days, the eldest son asked for a job transfer.

Almost instantly, he thought of the scene he saw when he walked into the courtyard after get off work that day, and the look the eldest son had given the little girl from the Feng family, and he couldn't help thinking about it.

But the eldest son had a good character, which he and his wife knew. Based on this, he cut off his thoughts in time and stopped himself from thinking about it.

But at this moment, his wife suddenly mentioned such a young man, which made him think of the old things again... If he remembered correctly, when the little girl from the Feng family ran away from him, she had a strong smell of alcohol on her body.

The smell of alcohol on the eldest son Xiao Jin was very light, not like he had drunk alcohol, but it seemed to be contaminated by the little girl from the Feng family.

"Old Xiao, can't you say a word!"

After waiting for a long time for Xiao's father to speak, Xiao's mother looked unhappy: "Aren't you curious at all?"

"What is there to be curious about?"

Before the matter was clear, he couldn't say it. When the matter was clear, then... I'm afraid I couldn't say it even more!

Xiao's father was worried and felt that it was necessary to ask his eldest son to return to the compound so that they could have a good talk.

"I really don't know how to tell you!"

Xiao's mother glared at Xiao's father: "The second son can suddenly have a son, maybe the eldest son..."

Here we have to mention Xiao Shen. In recent years, he has been forced to marry by Xiao's mother many times. He didn't want his mother to continue to worry about his marriage. Xiao Shen could only tell his story with Luo Xue and told Xiao's mother that Luo Xue gave him a son and brought Luo En home to Xiao's father and mother to show him, saying that he already had his own children and it was completely unnecessary for him to get married.

He met two good women in his life, both of whom died because of giving birth to his children. Xiao Shen felt that he owed them too much and had no intention of starting a family again.

The only thing he wanted to do in his lifetime was to watch his son Ron grow up healthy and safe, and watch his only son marry and have children, so as to comfort the girl who silently liked him, ignored worldly prejudices, and risked her life to give birth to his son.

Xiao's father looked serious and interrupted Xiao's mother: "Comrade Zhang Rong, your idea is very dangerous!"

Then he caught the bug...
