Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law

Chapter 26: Chapter 026 Sit Down Quietly_1

Huo Beijiang’s succinct response made Jiang Nanfei suddenly stand up. The breakfast shop set up several tables, and although it was open-air, there were many people having breakfast. When she stood up like this, everyone turned to look at her.

Old Uncle Li, who was in the middle of sending over food with his chopsticks, was startled by her movement and instinctively looked at Huo Beijiang.

“What’s wrong?” Huo Beijiang’s voice was low and his expression remained unchanged as he sat on the old bench, his posture as upright as a pine tree, “Sit down!”

If it were any other woman, or Jiang Nanfei from her past life, she would definitely be infuriated by his commanding tone. She bit her lip, looking directly at Huo Beijiang trying to figure out his intentions, but frustratingly, she couldn’t see through him at all.

It was like this in her past life too!

Her rank was simply too low in his eyes!

...

Taking a deep breath, she reasoned that since she had already agreed to marry him to fulfill her parents and grandmother’s wishes, there was no point in resisting anymore, and she certainly didn’t want to repeat the hardships of her previous life.

So, she obediently sat down!

“Eat.”

“Yes.”

Old Uncle Li watched the young girl with her fair and slender appearance obediently following orders, and secretly gave Huo Beijiang a meaningful look. The latter’s previously commanding expression immediately slightly shifted to unease.

After finishing the meal, Jiang Nanfei didn’t speak to Huo Beijiang, and silently headed home.

The two were tall and agile, with good stamina. Their fast pace and long strides didn’t leave them out of breath even after half an hour. For Jiang Nanfei, who had to catch up, it was particularly exhausting. Her face was flushed and she decided that she never wanted to walk with Huo Beijiang again in her life.

It was simply too torturous!

She had every reason to dislike him in her past life.

“I’m home now! Goodbye!” After grabbing the bag from his hand, she turned and walked towards her home without looking back. @@novelbin@@

Huo Beijiang stood at the village entrance, his brows furrowed as he watched her retreating figure.

His wife seemed to…dislike him a lot? Touching his face, he thought to himself that it shouldn’t be the case! Regardless of his looks, temperament, or physique, he was considered top-tier.

Lu Jin said that as long as he was willing to coax someone, he would be invincible?

Xiao Wang Village was oriented from east to west, with a road running north to south through the middle of the village. The east side of the road was known as the Village East, and the west side as the Village West. Jiang Nanfei’s house was in Village West.

Just as she was approaching her house, she saw her younger brother, Jiang Yang, sitting on a stone in front of the door in a daze, seemingly unaware of her approach.

Nan Fei stood in front of Jiang Yang. Seeing his appearance, tears involuntarily slid down her cheeks, and the bag in her hand dropped to the ground without her noticing.

Her brother looked a lot like her – their skin color, eyes, and lips were all a legacy from their mother. He had the most perfect cherry lips and delicate shape, a beautiful cherry red color. It didn’t quite fit a boy.

“Brother…” she murmured softly, her tears flowing more freely now.

The boy who had been in a daze raised his head blankly after hearing her voice, staring at her beautiful face for a while in apparent confusion.

“I’m your sister, your big sister!” Jiang Nanfei smiled, how wonderful! She hadn’t been with her brother during the incident in her previous life, and it had become a lifelong regret.

That’s why she’d been so good to her sister in the following years, giving all the love she hadn’t been able to give her brother to her. But in her heart, she knew that the one she was closest to, and missed the most, was her brother.

“Nan Fei?” Jiang Yang finally spoke.

“Yes!” Jiang Nanfei nodded vigorously.

Her brother had never called anyone by their names. Apart from mum and dad, he didn’t even call his sister, grandparents. The Jiang family was large and they had many brothers, sisters, and distant relatives. But her brother never called anyone, which made those relatives dislike him.
