Chapter 34
Old Friend (2)
Before Jiang Ru could say anything, Zhang Ping beside her immediately pulled a long face, frowning as she looked at Huang Qingqing. "Why are you bringing this up?"
She was a bit displeased that she brought this up. Jiang Ru was pregnant now; wasn't this just making her feel stifled?
Originally, she had come to visit Jiang Ru alone, but she had met Huang Qingqing on the road, who insisted on tagging along. She had thought that since the two were from the same village, they must be very familiar, but she hadn't expected her to start trouble as soon as she opened her mouth.
Wen Yang had good grades and was handsome, so many female students in school liked him. It was just a pity that he and Jiang Ru had no fate.
After Jiang Ru recalled who it was, her face remained calm. After all, it had nothing to do with her.
But Huang Qingqing's words reminded her of something. Before transmigrating, she had attended university, but now she was someone who hadn't even finished high school. No matter the era, academic qualifications were very important.
Being scolded by Zhang Ping, Huang Qingqing restrained herself slightly, but looked at Jiang Ru with a glaringly mocking look in her eyes. "Did I say anything wrong? Jiang Ru, tell me yourself, are you being sensible? Even if you wanted to get married, you should have made a choice. Even that Pockmarked Wang your family chose for you is better than Le Xiao. What's the use of being handsome? He bullies female classmates, has been in jail, and has no money. Now you don't even go to school, sitting around waiting to die all day. I don't know what you're planning."
Zhang Ping was choked up and speechless after hearing this.
On the contrary, Jiang Ru was displeased to hear this. Why was this person like this? She hadn't been familiar with the original owner before, the type who wouldn't even greet each other on the street. Just now, seeing that she was from the same village and came with Zhang Ping, she had let her in, but she hadn't expected her to start mocking and sarcasm as soon as she sat down.
If Le Xiao wasn't good, it wasn't her turn to point fingers and act high and mighty.
Her face instantly turned cold, and she asked back without being polite, "When did my Le Xiao go to jail? He was just locked up for a few days for fighting, which is different from going to jail. You've studied for so many years, don't you even have that common sense?"
Bị Jiang Ru trào phúng ngược lại, Huang Qingqing's face stiffened slightly. She had originally thought she would see Jiang Ru filled with regret, but she hadn't expected her to defend Le Xiao.
She immediately said in displeasure, "Jiang Ru, what kind of tone is that? I came to visit you out of goodwill, and you speak to me like that? Don't feel that my words are unpleasant to hear; I only want the best for you. Ask yourself, did I say anything untrue? Even if he hasn't been to jail, didn't you know about him bullying female classmates back then? Go outside and ask around what kind of virtue your husband has. Only you treat him like a treasure."
The mockery on her face was completely unconcealed. "You really have no shame, shamelessly following such a man and even getting knocked up, losing all the face of our village..."
"Huang Qingqing."
Zhang Ping saw that she was speaking more and more unpleasantly and couldn't listen anymore, regretting bringing her here.
Jiang Ru slammed the water cup onto the small table, strongly refuting, "He bullied female classmates, did you see it with your own eyes? Aren't you supposed to be studying? One would think you're a busybody. Instead of caring about this and that, why don't you care more about your own grades? Don't let the person Pockmarked Wang marries end up being you."
"My Le Xiao is very good. He knows how to wash clothes, cook, and earn money. I am extremely satisfied. Your liking Wen Yang is your own business, don't act weird in front of me under the guise of wanting the best for me. Who doesn't know your little thoughts?"
"To tell you the truth, even without me, Wen Yang wouldn't like you. What's the point of running to me to find a sense of superiority? Disgusting."
