Chapter 326: Bai Mu Wants to Save Bai Mo

~8 min read 1,507 words

"You're right, it was my lack of consideration," Fu Yang said, scratching the back of his head. "Then let's not be in a rush; we'll wait until after my brother's affairs are settled to handle ours."

Jiang Siyu shook the ring on her hand in front of him. "You idiot! Right now, in our family, only I have agreed to marry you; my mom and dad haven't agreed yet."

"Do Aunt Si Rong and Uncle Jiang Cheng not approve?" Fu Yang immediately felt uneasy in his heart.

"That depends on your ability," Jiang Siyu said, deliberately trying to scare him.

The next day, Fu Yang brought over quite a few gifts, including various expensive supplements, as well as cigarettes and alcohol.

Si Rong watched as Fu Yang moved things back and forth two or three times, and she had a hunch.

Jiang Cheng, standing to the side, tentatively advised, "Stop moving them; your Aunt Si Rong won't let me drink."

Si Rong:...

"I just won't let you, you old geezer, drink!" Taking advantage of the moment Fu Yang went back out to move more things, Si Rong quickly pinched Jiang Cheng's arm. "Didn't you realize anything?"

Jiang Cheng looked at Fu Yang's figure and the room full of gifts, then thought for a moment. "Are you worried that these things will go bad?"

"I think your brain is the one that's gone bad!" Si Rong was furious, but when Fu Yang entered the room, she had to put on a standard mother-in-law smile. "The man wants to take your flowers, pot and all!"

"What?" Jiang Cheng was shocked. "He has his eye on the few pots of orchids I've been growing? And he wants to take them, pot and all? No, no way!"

"It's your daughter! Your daughter!" Si Rong gritted her teeth. "The man is here to propose marriage; if your eyes are useless, you might as well take them out and donate them!"

"Well, that's a good thing then," Jiang Cheng still liked the boy Fu Yang very much. "He likes Juzi, and Juzi likes him, and he even knows to come over and propose first; he's quite sensible."

Si Rong then knew that she would have to be the villain herself.

"I'd rather marry a pig than marry you!" While Fu Yang was out again, Si Rong took the opportunity to disparage Jiang Cheng.

When Fu Yang came back in, she restored her usual calm and composed appearance.

The family sat on the sofa, and Fu Yang took the initiative to express his intention to marry Juzi.

"Your work is currently mainly abroad; I'm afraid you'll have to live apart after you get married, right?" Si Rong asked.

"Mom," Jiang Siyu quickly spoke up to speak for Fu Yang, "Fu Yang is preparing to return to the country."

Hearing that Fu Yang was preparing to develop his career domestically, Si Rong was indeed very surprised. Her tone softened a bit. "It's good to be in the country. How is your mother? Is she very busy during this time?"

"Yes, my mother will be back in a few days. When she returns, she will come to see you all."

"With our close relationship, why talk about seeing or not seeing? When the time comes, I will cook for her myself!"

Jiang Cheng:...

The marriage between Fu Yang and Jiang Siyu was thus decided.

Soon, the sixteenth arrived, the day of Jiang Sinian and Jiang Yue's grand wedding.

Early in the morning, Ming Zi brought her two grandsons, and Wan Fang and Fu Yang also came to the Jiang Family to help.

Although the lunch was set at a hotel, some close relatives still wanted to come to the house early to enjoy the excitement.

The front and back of the house were covered in large red "Double Happiness" characters, and Jiang Siyu and Fu Yang played together with the relatives' children.

They shuttled back and forth from time to time to serve the guests melon seeds and tea.

Si Rong was so busy she didn't have a moment to rest, but she didn't expect Bai Mu to actually come today.

Because of Bai Mo, she and Bai Mu had not been in contact since Bai Mu sold her house and returned to the countryside.

"Congratulations, congratulations!" Bai Mu looked much older, her eyelids drooping, and she appeared to be in low spirits.

"Come inside and sit! It's so hot outside today!" Si Rong took her arm and helped her to the sofa to sit.

"Who's to say it isn't?" Bai Mu looked at her, wanting to say something but hesitating. "You go ahead and get busy. We haven't seen each other in a long time; let's have a good chat when you're done."

"Alright." Si Rong also sensed that she had something she wanted to say to her. "Then just call me if you need anything."

Her son and daughter-in-law's wedding was a major event; she had to attend to that first.

There were about several hundred relatives from the Jiang Family side and the Jiang Yue side, and Si Rong had prepared one hundred and twenty tables at Zuiyun Lou.

They went to the hotel near noon, and exactly over one hundred and ten tables were filled.

The Chinese-style wedding was very grand; Jiang Sinian rode a tall horse, and Jiang Yue wore a bright red traditional Chinese wedding dress, covering her face with a round fan.

The two bowed to heaven, earth, and their parents on the stage, solemn and beautiful.

In the audience, Jiang Siyu's eyes turned red, and she silently prayed in her heart that they could remain this happy forever.

"If you like this kind of wedding, we can do it this way too when the time comes!" Fu Yang said.

He didn't have a tissue on him, so he used his fingers to wipe Jiang Siyu's tears.

"I just feel that it wasn't easy for them to reach this day."

Once, she had thought that these two were destined not to be together.

Fortunately, although the process was tortuous, the ending was beautiful.

"Yes, Brother and Sister-in-law will definitely be happy." Fu Yang was already using Jiang Siyu's way of addressing them.

Now that Jiang Sinian was her older brother, he had to act like a brother-in-law; he had secretly heard Uncle Jiang Cheng say that to Jiang Sinian.

Being a brother-in-law is great.

The ceremony on stage ended perfectly, and Fu Yang clapped louder than anyone else.

At the end of the audience seating, the expression on Bai Mu's face was filled with melancholy.

The changes in the world are truly impermanent.

Once, she had thought that Momo would marry into the Jiang Family and marry Jiang Sinian.

He was a reliable child, though his temperament was a bit arrogant.

But with such a family background and appearance, a bit of arrogance was perfectly normal.

She had once urged Bai Mo not to be too impulsive when being with such a child, and even more so, not to rely on his affection to demand his compromise.

However, Bai Mo had never taken her words to heart.

Now...

The food at Zuiyun Lou was naturally exquisite and delicious, but Bai Mu didn't find it appetizing because she had things on her mind.

After finishing the meal, Si Rong and Jiang Cheng saw off the guests one by one, only looking at Bai Mu at the very end.

"If you have anything to say, let's talk about it at home."

Bai Mu nodded, took a car, and followed them back to the Jiang Family.

"Where is Si Nian?" Bai Mu sat down and looked around.

Si Rong's smile did not reach her eyes, "He is next door; his wife is an only daughter, and as a mother, it is hard for her to see her daughter marry out, so I let him go keep her company."

Privately, she also did not want Si Nian at home, though Bai Mu did not know what that meant.

"If you have something to say, just say it!"

Bai Mu raised her hand to tuck the hair behind her ear before saying, "Bai Mo contacted me."

"She is currently paralyzed and being tortured by a woman, living a life worse than death; she wants me to save her."

Si Rong was silent.

She had thought Bai Mo was dead, "How do you intend to save her?"

Surely she wasn't coming to ask her for help, was she?

"You also know that Bai is dead; I am someone without any ability or connections, so I can only come to beg you; you don't need to do anything yourselves."

"I heard that your Si Nian is currently researching intelligent aircraft; could you help me find that woman?"

"Don't laugh at me; although she isn't my own flesh and blood, I did raise her until she was this big after all. If I don't help her, she will likely just have to wait for death."
