To avoid harassment from my brother-in-law, I got married to a wealthy man

Lu Xi was a little confused when she saw this. Didn't they say that the two families would have dinner together today? Then why did the talks break down?

Fu Nanzhou dipped the roasted pork belly in barbecue sauce, wrapped it in lettuce, and handed it to Lu Xi: "Don't just chat, eat first, aren't you all hungry?"

Lu Xi put it in her mouth and said while chewing: "Yiyi broke up with Jiang Yizhou."

Fu Nanzhou couldn't help but frown when he heard this. He was originally using scissors to cut the pork belly, but he paused and asked, "Did Yiyi say that?"

"Yes, look." Lu Xi turned the phone screen to Fu Nanzhou.

Fu Nanzhou smiled slightly, "It's fake. That girl likes to break up when she gets angry. It's just angry words."

However, Lu Xi felt something was wrong and immediately called Zhuang Yi.

Before Lu Xi could speak, Zhuang Yi asked, "Where are you? I'll go find you."

Lu Xi sent the location to Zhuang Yi, hung up the phone and said to Fu Nanzhou: "Turn off the fire first, and we can eat together when Zhuang Yi comes."

"You should eat something to fill your stomach first. If you are empty-minded for too long, your stomach acid will be secreted too much and you will have stomach pain."

"Oh." Lu Xi agreed.

Zhuang Yi was not far away and arrived in more than ten minutes. She sat in front of Lu Xi and hugged Lu Xi without waiting for Lu Xi to say anything.

Although she didn't say anything, Lu Xi's shoulders were wet. It must be because Zhuang Yi was crying.

"Yiyi." Lu Xi hugged Yiyi lovingly, feeling indescribably sad.

Fu Nanzhou's handsome face also turned cold, "Did Jiang Yizhou bully you?"

"He's bullying me! I hated the place he chose to invite us to dinner, and then he made sarcastic remarks about me throwing chopsticks while we were eating.

"Isn't she just trying to get me to apologize to her? She also mentioned Shen Youran and said that she just likes her. Isn't that what she said to me?"

Lu Xi bit her lip and thought Jiang's mother was being too much. She frowned and asked, "So you sent me that voice message in front of them? Brother Jiang's mother was unhappy because of this sentence, right?"

"Ah."

Fu Nanzhou heard Zhuang Yi's voice message and couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "You shouldn't let her hear this."

Zhuang Yi immediately glared at him, "I did it on purpose! She is allowed to be sarcastic but I am not allowed to fight back?!"

Fu Nanzhou: “…”

His tone was stagnant for a moment, and he said helplessly: "She is the elder after all."

"What's wrong with being an elder? Elders should act like elders! She was the one who provoked me first! If I was wrong for throwing the chopsticks that day, then I would admit it and I would definitely apologize, but that's not the case. She was the one who praised Shen Youran in front of me and said it was a pity that Jiang Yizhou and Shen Youran didn't end up together. How could I tolerate that?"

Fu Nanzhou was speechless.

Zhuang Yi has been a person who never suffers any loss since childhood, and Jiang Yizhou's mother is indeed not a good person. Neither of them is willing to admit defeat, so when they come together, it is bound to be a clash of the two.

"Don't cry yet. Eat your fill first, then you'll have enough energy to cry. You can stay with us tonight and sleep with your aunt. But we have a deal. I'll only lend you this one bowl."

Fu Nanzhou said seriously.

Zhuang Yi was so angry that she laughed, "I know, you're a stingy guy, a wife slave!"

When people are unhappy, it will be easier to get through the sad mood if there is someone to accompany them.

The three of them ate and drank their fill at the barbecue restaurant and then returned to Longhu Villa.

The two little sisters lay in bed together, discussing pregnancy reactions and learning parenting knowledge in advance.

Fu Nanzhou was peeling the grapes downstairs, and then brought two plates of grape flesh to them.

"After breakfast..." "Oh, uncle, you are annoying. We are chatting. Go out."

Zhuang Yi didn't want Fu Nanzhou to talk too much, so she pushed him out and locked him up.

Lu Xi asked her: "Yiyi, are you really going to break up with Brother Jiang?"

Zhuang Yi did not answer, but asked: "If it were you, do you think you could still hold on?"

Lu Xi remained silent, and there was a high probability that he could not go on.

Her situation is better than Zhuang Yi's. At least Fu Nanzhou and Tan Ya have a very tense relationship, and he will not protect his mother without any bottom line.

But Yiyi is different. Jiang Yizhou is a very filial man, and the Jiang family's tradition is to put filial piety first. Jiang's mother has never been as sharp as she is now before Yiyi and Jiang Yizhou confirmed their relationship and prepared to get married.

The more Jiang Yizhou felt sorry for his mother, the more he found himself in a dilemma.

"Then are you willing to do that? You've liked Brother Jiang for so long, and now that you've finally established a relationship, can you really break up so easily?"

Zhuang Yi smiled bitterly, "Saying we're breaking up is just an angry remark, but Xixi, I feel like there's no future, as if the future is predictable. His mom and I keep arguing, and he's torn between the two of us. He can't afford to offend either of us, so in the end he's the one who's in trouble.

"But if you want me to suffer for him, I can't do it. Why do we women get married? To pursue love.

“Although all marriages will eventually come down to the daily necessities of life, it’s not now, it should be in ten or twenty years.

Also, many people on the Internet say that marriage is essentially a mess, and every day is a mess, but if that's the case, why get married?"

Lu Xi felt that her best friend was right, but in fact many people get married to live together.

Living together can save more money. At least that was what he thought when he got married to Fu Nanzhou.

"I don't want to think about it anymore. Her mother is pretending to be sick now anyway. I guess we will have to be in a cold war for the next few days." Zhuang Yi muttered.

**

Over there at the hospital.

Jiang's mother was sent for emergency treatment and soon woke up.

"Mom, do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?" Jiang Yizhou saw her open her eyes and hurried over.

Jiang's mother's breathing was a little weak, and her eyes suddenly turned red. "Son, I almost didn't see you this time. It looks like I don't have much time left."

"Mom, stop talking."

"No, I want to tell you." Jiang's mother held his hand and said, "Son, I know my own body best. I must be seriously ill."

"Mom, if you feel uncomfortable, take this opportunity to check it out."

The hospital belonged to the Jiang family and had full privileges. They immediately conducted a comprehensive examination on Jiang's mother, and the results were all positive by the next evening.

The attending doctor knocked on the door and said seriously, "Yizhou, come in."

Jiang Buhui also stood up, and the father and son followed the doctor outside.

Jiang Buhui asked: "How is it?"

The doctor's expression was still solemn, and he subconsciously pursed his lips, obviously looking like he had something difficult to say.

Jiang Yizhou's heart sank, "Uncle Chen, just tell me straight."

"Yes, Old Chen, we are all acquaintances, so don't hide it." Jiang Buhui urged.

The doctor sighed, "There is a tumor on the heart."

Although they knew it might not be good, Jiang Yizhou and Jiang Buhui were still struck by lightning, and were so shocked that they were speechless.

"Old Jiang, don't worry. Based on previous cases, three-quarters of heart tumors are benign."

"Three quarters...that is to say, one out of every four is a malignant tumor." Jiang Buhui shook his body.

Jiang Yizhou's face turned pale, and he had difficulty breathing, as if someone was choking him. It took him a long time to find his voice: "My mother needs surgery, right?"

"Yes, it has to be done, and it has to be done as soon as possible. This tumor is quite large. It will be dangerous if it is delayed for too long."

Jiang Buhui asked, "Will there be any risks in the operation?"

The doctor was helpless. "Old Jiang, what do you think? Any surgery has risks and cannot be 100% avoided. I will do my best. If you don't trust me, you can find the most authoritative doctor in the world to perform the surgery."

Jiang Buhui clenched his teeth and remained silent.

"You should go along with your sister-in-law these two days and don't let her get too emotional. Cardiac angiography revealed that her aorta has pathological dilatation. If it ruptures, it will be life-threatening, so don't let her get angry."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Lao Chen." Jiang Buhui forced a smile.

The doctor nodded. "It's my duty. I'll leave first. You two can discuss what to do."

After the doctor left, Jiang Yizhou and his son were still standing there stiffly. No one expected that Shen Youran was in the stairwell and listened to all the conversations.
