Chapter 257 I Want to Break Up with Him
"Who's back?" Father Jiang also opened the curtain and walked out. Xuanxuan immediately threw himself into his arms, "Grandpa!"
Father Jiang's tense face suddenly relaxed, and even the wrinkles on his face turned into a smile. "It's Xuanxuan! Why did you come to see grandpa suddenly?"
"Mom brought me here!" Xuanxuan pointed at his mother. Father Jiang looked over and adjusted his reading glasses. "Why did you come back so suddenly? Is there something wrong?"
"Nothing, I just haven't come back to see you guys for a long time, and I'm a little worried."
Jiang Man walked into the house while talking, obviously not wanting to talk any more. He rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen to help.
Father Jiang kept looking at her in confusion, "Grandpa~" At this time, Xuanxuan pulled him and motioned him to put his ear close to her.
Father Jiang squatted down quickly, "Xuanxuan, what do you want to say to Grandpa?"
Xuanxuan lowered his voice and spoke word by word, "Mom and Uncle Su are going to separate."
Father Jiang's eyes froze for a moment. "Separated? Why?"
Xuanxuan tilted his little head, blinking his big eyes. "I don't know either. Mom just said I can't go back... I don't even know where to go back to? Ah! Is it Uncle Su's house?"
Father Jiang received important information from his grandson, and his inner shock can be imagined. These two children had finally come together, but now they were to be separated!
His face darkened and he glanced in the direction of the kitchen.
The lunch was simple, with four dishes and a soup, but Xuanxuan ate it with gusto, stuffing mouthful after mouthful. Jiang Man watched his son grinning from ear to ear, chatting with his mother. Suddenly, Jiang's father asked, "What's going on between you and Mr. Su? Why didn't I see him come with you this time?"
Jiang's mother also asked, "Yes, why are there only the two of you?"
Jiang Man pursed his lips and said after a long while: "I want to break up with him."
Before she finished speaking, the Su couple were both stunned. Even Xuanxuan was holding a small spoon and staring at his mother blankly. Then, he slowly lowered his head and silently scooped the soup in the bowl.
Father Jiang was the first to come to his senses. After a moment of silence, he said, "If you think this person is suitable, then let's separate."
His words surprised Jiang Man, "Dad."
Father Jiang poured himself a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp, and then glanced at her. "After what happened with that kid named Lu, I've finally figured it out. Face or not, nothing is more important than my daughter's happiness."
Jiang Man's eyes instantly became moist. She obviously didn't want to cry in front of her parents, but all her strength seemed unable to withstand a thoughtful word from her loved one.
Mother Jiang also sighed softly and hugged her daughter's shoulders. "Manman, no matter what grievances you have suffered outside, you must come back and tell us. Don't forget, we are your closest family."
Jiang Man held back his tears and nodded with a sob.
Father Jiang frowned, but after enduring for a long time, he couldn't help but ask, "Is it because Su Heng has an affair with that celebrity named Ding Xin?"
Jiang's mother immediately glared at him. "What nonsense are you talking about? You believe all that gossip!"
Jiang Man didn't expect that her parents had already known about this. She lowered her eyes and subconsciously tried to excuse Su Heng, "No, those are just random stories written by reporters. I want to break up because of our personal reasons. It has nothing to do with anyone else."
Father Jiang glanced at her and said in a muffled voice, "Don't you understand my daughter's temper? If it weren't for the problem with the other woman, would you want to break up?"
As he spoke, he drank another cup of tea.
Mother Jiang quietly stepped on his foot and said, "Stop talking nonsense in front of the children!"
Father Jiang said nothing more.
The atmosphere at the table was a little awkward. Jiang Man quickly picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Xuanxuan's bowl. "Xuanxuan, don't you love grandma's braised pork the most? Eat more."
Mother Jiang quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, yes! Grandma made this especially for you."
"Oh..." Xuanxuan lowered his head, his mood still low.
The three adults felt unhappy when they saw this, especially Jiang Man, who was full of self-blame.
After dinner, Jiang Man helped his mother clean up the dishes in the kitchen, while his father took his grandson to see a calligraphy and painting exhibition.
Mother Jiang turned around, her expression serious. "Manman, tell me the truth, is it really because of that woman named Ding Xin that you and Su Heng are having this relationship?"
Jiang Man frowned, "Mom, why do you listen to nonsense news? It's not true!"
"Manman, you can fool anyone but you can't fool me! Don't forget, I'm your mother!"
"Okay, okay, you are my mother and you are the best!"
Mother Jiang glared at her and said sternly, "Stop being so playful with me! Is everything they say in the news true? What's with the rekindled love? Were they a couple before?"
Jiang Man washed the dishes in silence.
Seeing her like this, Jiang's mother guessed what was going on. She was disappointed and sighed, "I thought he was a reliable man and I thought I could entrust you to him. I didn't expect it to be like this."
"Mom~" Jiang Man turned his head and pretended to be relaxed: "Who has to get married just because they are in a relationship? If it's not suitable, just change it. It's normal!"
Jiang's mother was both angry and amused. "I really don't know who you took that stupid head from! Your man has already been taken away by someone else, and you're still talking nonsense."
"Anyway, not like my dad."
Jiang Man muttered softly, and Jiang's mother was amused and slapped her, "Okay, get out now, don't get in the way here."
After Jiang Man went out, he saw his son and father practicing calligraphy in the yard. He walked over and stood behind them, watching with a smile: "Our little baby writes really well!"
Father Jiang turned around and glanced at her, "You're much better than you were back then!"
Xuanxuan grabbed the brush and asked curiously, "Grandpa, was Mom very bad back then?"
"It's more than just bad! It's giving me a headache!" Father Jiang's expression was exaggerated, making Xuanxuan laugh. "When your mother was your age, she was so naughty! She always wanted to go out and play, and she never completed the tasks assigned to her. That's why her handwriting is so crooked! We, Xuanxuan, must not be like her!"
Xuanxuan nodded vigorously: "Yes! I can write better than mommy!"
"Haha... this is my darling grandson!"
Jiang Man was unhappy when he heard this, "How could I be that naughty? I even won an award for my calligraphy in elementary school!"
"There were more than a dozen people participating in the competition, and you came in third from the bottom. How dare you say that?"
The father and daughter were joking around, and Xuanxuan couldn't stop laughing, "It turns out that mommy is stupid too!"
"Mom isn't stupid, it's obviously Grandpa who didn't teach her well!"
Father Jiang glared at her and said, "You little bitch, are you trying to piss me off to death?"
