327 Take Care

When Jiang Mei saw her mother-in-law walking towards her, she was so frightened that she didn’t dare to move. Jiang Wu was anxious, but could only lie in bed and couldn’t stop her.

Fortunately, Jiang Chun had been paying attention to Old Madam Jiang. Seeing this, she immediately went forward and grabbed her hand. “Grandma, are you planning to pester us again?”

Old Madam Jiang looked at Jiang Chun with an ice-cold gaze. Then, she pulled her hand out slightly and immediately started using her old trick. She sat on the ground as she began to cry. “My life is really tough. I raised you painstakingly, but you’re just going to watch your wife and daughter bully your seventy-year-old mother? Do you have any conscience?”

“What a sin! I was thinking for your sake, but you didn’t appreciate it! Jiang Wu, you’re really disappointing! I’m already so old, but I was scolded by your wife and beaten up by your daughter. I’m really a failure. I’ll just die so that I won’t be an eyesore to your family!”

Jiang Wu wasn’t blind, so he naturally knew that Old Madam Jiang wanted him to beat up his wife and daughter. However, his wife had been with a sickly person like him for so many years without complaints and regrets, while his daughter was filial and sensible, so he couldn’t disregard right and wrong just to please his mother.

However, when he saw his mother sitting on the ground and wiping her tears, he was in a dilemma. He could only say helplessly, “Mom, the floor is cold. You have rheumatism to begin with, and your legs will hurt at night if you suffer the cold. If you have anything to say, say it in bed.”

Old Madam Jiang was going all out. She originally thought that after she finished speaking, her eldest son’s family would immediately help her up, and she would be able to get up at that time.

Unexpectedly, no one did so. If she listened to Jiang Wu’s words, how could her words have any deterrent effect?!

Jiang Chun pretended not to see Old Madam Jiang’s distortion of the truth. When she saw that Jiang Mei wanted to go forward, she even secretly stopped her.

Old Madam Jiang had to continue acting, so she could only continue shouting, “Turns out that you still care about my life! Then chase Jiang Chun back to the village. I feel upset whenever I see her now. If you still want me to be your mother, you have to do as I say!”

The eldest son’s family didn’t help her because they thought that if Old Madam Jiang continued to sit there and cry, the effect would be better. As for the fact that her body would hurt from the cold, she could endure it. She wouldn’t die from it anyway.

Now that Old Madam Jiang had said this, the eldest son could tell that his mother wanted to chase Jiang Chun away, so she could convince his third brother and wife in private. Otherwise, with Jiang Chun around, it would indeed be difficult to negotiate. Hence, he said, “Brother, don’t make Mom angry! Let Jiang Chun return to the village first.”

When Jiang Wu heard that she was only asking Jiang Chun to return to the village and didn’t mention anything else, she heaved a sigh of relief. “Mom, Jiang Chun will be back in a few days. She’s on a leave.”

When Old Madam Jiang heard this, she immediately stopped wiping her tears and looked up to ask, “How many days is the leave?”

Jiang Wu thought of the time on Jiang Chun’s certificate and replied, “Five days. Mom, it’s not easy for Jiang Chun to come home. She only comes back once a year.”

When the eldest son heard this, he anxiously shot Old Madam Jiang a look. Old Madam Jiang received the hint and said, “No, she has to leave tomorrow.”

Jiang Chun was a little puzzled. She could tell why Old Madam Jiang wanted to chase her back to the village, but she didn’t understand why she was in such a hurry.

Hence, she planned to test them and force them to reveal it themselves. “Dad, I applied for leave with our village chief and leader yesterday. They know that I’m an only child, so they allowed me to take care of you at home for half a month.”

Old Madam Jiang was even more unwilling to accept it when she heard this. She immediately clutched her chest and shouted, “My chest feels stuffy whenever I see this wretched girl. Are you trying to anger me to death? You’re not even willing to agree to such a small request.”

When Jiang Chun heard this, she said calmly, “Grandma, if my mother doesn’t go to work soon, she’ll probably lose her job as a part-time worker. In that case, my father can’t lose his job all the more. I’m staying at home to help my mother take care of my father.”

Old Madam Jiang paused for a moment. When she saw Jiang Yu sitting beside her, she had an idea. “Let Little Yu come here to take care of them for half a month. Hurry up and return to the village.”

Jiang Yu was stunned. Why was he being dragged into it? They had never mentioned this at home before, so was Old Madam Jiang serious, or was she lying to Jiang Chun?
