Chapter 287 Selfishness
Chapter 287 Selfishness
"Why can't I call Chang Yao's cell phone?" Jiang's mother asked tentatively.
"Mom, I haven't confessed my feelings to Chang Yao yet. Please don't do anything rash. I want to choose a suitable time to propose to her." Jiang Jingyu was already fantasizing about his future with her.
"Jingyu, you know Chang Yao..."
"What?" Jiang Jingyu asked.
Mother Jiang listened to what her son said and thought that they met often. She thought that there were people in the world who looked alike, and maybe the person she saw was not Chang Yao.
"You have to bring Chang Yao back quickly so we can have a formal dinner and propose marriage." Mother Jiang had no objection to her daughter-in-law.
This is what they owe Chang Yao. They also want their son to take care of Chang Yao forever, which will make their relationship even closer.
"Mom, don't worry about it."
At this time, the doctor pushed open the door and came in. He said to Mr. Jiang who was lying on the bed, "How are you feeling today?"
Jiang Jingyu heard the voice: "Mom, who is talking?"
"No one, I'm on the roadside. No more talking, I still have to go buy groceries." Mother Jiang made up an excuse and hung up the phone.
Mr. Jiang told the doctor about his physical condition. The doctor gave him a basic examination and continued to make rounds after confirming that there was nothing wrong.
When Jiang's mother was accompanying her son at night, she fell asleep leaning against the bed. In her dream, she saw Chang Yao holding the child's hand. The child called her grandma, but he didn't look like Jingyu at all.
She was awakened and saw her husband covering her with a blanket: "The hospital bed is uncomfortable, you should go back to sleep, I'm fine."
Mother Jiang wiped the sweat from her forehead. The more she thought about the scenes in her dream, the more uneasy she felt. She thought of the 200,000 yuan her husband spent on surgery and the fruit basket.
Their family had never saved anyone before, so it was good enough that they didn't offend anyone. She walked out with her phone: "You have a good rest, I'm going out for a while."
She saw the nurse who brought them the fruit basket last time, walked over, and clicked on the photo album on her phone: "Little girl, did the girl who brought the fruit basket last time look like this?"
The nurse took her phone and enlarged the photo, then thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes, that's her."
Mother Jiang already had the answer in her mind. Chang Yao saw that they urgently needed money for surgery, so she gave them 200,000 yuan and later sent them a fruit basket.
The person she saw was Chang Yao!
Mother Jiang returned to the ward and did not sleep all night. At dawn, she prepared breakfast for him and then took a car to the apartment where Chang Yao got off.
She stood at the entrance of the apartment waiting for Chang Yao. Chang Yao slept until noon, and after dinner she would go downstairs for a walk and bask in the sun.
She smelled the snacks and felt a little greedy. She walked out of the apartment to buy some. Suddenly, someone called her from behind: "Chang Yao."
After hearing this, Chang Yao stopped subconsciously, but thinking that Chang Yao was already dead, she couldn't look back.
She raised her leg and continued to walk forward, but Mother Jiang stepped forward to stop her: "Chang Yao, it's me."
Chang Yao looked at her and said with a smile: "You've got the wrong person. I'm not the Chang Yao you're talking about."
"If you said no, why did you send us a fruit basket? The 200,000 yuan for Lao Jiang's surgery was also given by you, Chang Yao. Our family feels sorry for you, but you have done so much." Jiang's mother said guiltily.
"Aunt Jiang, it's all over." Chang Yao said slowly.
Since she could talk about the fruit basket, she must have investigated it, and it would be useless to deny it.
Chang Yao took her back home and poured her a glass of water. She looked around the house and didn't see any men's products, which meant that there was no man living there. But without a man, how could she have a child?
Mother Jiang took a sip of water and looked at her belly: "Chang Yao, I haven't seen you for a while. You are pregnant. How many months? Who is the father of the child?"
Chang Yao stroked her belly and said, "It's been five months, and the child has no father. Aunt Jiang, I want to trouble you for something. Don't tell anyone that I'm in Nancheng."
"Does Jingyu know?" asked Jiang's mother.
"I know." Chang Yao replied.
Mother Jiang's hand holding the cup trembled slightly. Jing Yuming knew that she was pregnant with someone else's child but still wanted to marry her, and he couldn't let his son be the scapegoat.
Mother Jiang put down the cup and held her hand: "Chang Yao, there is something I need your help with. Jingyu told me that he wants to marry you. Now that you are pregnant with someone else's child, you shouldn't be unclear with Jingyu."
Chang Yao never thought that she and Jiang Jingyu would develop into another relationship. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Aunt Jiang, you must have misunderstood. Jiang Jingyu is so anxious because of your urging him to get married every year that he uses me as a shield."
Mother Jiang knows her son well. He can't be joking or using her as a shield. Jingyu is serious about her and really wants to marry her.
"Chang Yao, I hope you won't agree to Jingyu and keep your distance from him. I know it's selfish of me to do this. You've taken good care of our family over the years, and you even took on the responsibility of taking care of the family before you even reached adulthood.
I feel extremely guilty about this, but Chang Yao, I am first a mother, secondly a wife, and finally myself. I must protect my family, my children, and my husband."
Seeing her say this so seriously, Chang Yao suddenly felt that Jiang Jingyu might not really have other thoughts about her. She had never noticed this in all these years.
"Aunt Jiang, I promise you, I will keep my distance from him." Chang Yao assured her, making her feel as relieved as possible.
Mother Jiang stood up, her eyes full of guilt and gratitude. Her son now runs a company and makes money, and deserves a better girl. If Chang Yao was not pregnant, she might agree.
A marriage can only be sustained between two people who are clean. If there are other people's children or other men involved, there will be many problems in the marriage. She doesn't want her son to be hurt.
Chang Yao saw Jiang's mother off. When Jiang's mother returned to the hospital, she felt relaxed as if she had accomplished something big.
She knew Chang Yao, and as long as Chang Yao agreed, she would do it and would not lie to her.
In the evening, Jiang's mother called Jiang Jingyu and said, "Son, if you can't bring Chang Yao home this year, I will introduce you to someone. You must hurry up and settle your lifelong event. Your father and I want to have grandchildren."
"Mom, didn't I tell you that we have to ask Chang Yao's opinion on this matter?" Jiang Jingyu was a little anxious.
He wants to marry Chang Yao. If Chang Yao knew that he was going on a blind date, what would she think? This is absolutely not acceptable.
"Who knows if Chang Yao will like you? If not, you still have a choice, right? So it's settled." Mother Jiang hung up the phone directly after saying that.
Chang Yao will definitely not come back with him during the Chinese New Year, so he has to choose a girl carefully this year and let her come to his house to meet him. If he likes her, he will have the hope of having a grandson next year.
Father Jiang was in a good mood when he saw her coming out of the bathroom: "What's the matter that makes you so happy?"
"Our son has agreed to a blind date. I have to make good preparations for the New Year. You can help to match them up then." Mother Jiang happily assigned him the task.
