Chapter 863: Second Brother’s Girlfriend
When she was done shopping in Nanjiang City, she realized that she had purchased many items for Jiang Lei. She soothed herself—her eldest brother had been spoken for, but her second brother had not found anyone yet. Therefore, she should feel sorry for him and treat him better.
Jiang Lei had thicker skin than Jiang Jie; he immediately went into his room to change into the new clothes and shoes that Jiang Yao had bought for him. He was reluctant to change out of them even after he had shown his family.
They lived in a small village. If something were to happen to a family, everyone would know about it. It was the same for Jiang Jie’s upcoming wedding. Most villagers paid full attention to the family, so when Jiang Yao brought two big boxes of gifts for her family, the news had spread overnight.
Many villagers said that Jiang Yao had hit the jackpot. Her parents and brothers doted on her. She had a good upbringing, was well-learned and well-behaved. She even married into a good family.
Her husband’s second uncle was also the one who sent her back to her parent’s home during the holidays. He even helped her with the two big boxes, and he smiled at Jiang Yao the entire time. One might think that he treated her like his own daughter.
The next day, Jiang Yao went to town with her two brothers. Jiang Jie wanted to buy some things for the wedding. Jiang Lei was there to help his brother, and Jiang Yao went to buy some local products. Then, she went to the post office to mail them to Lu Xingzhi’s former comrade.
They did not expect such a coincidence; they met Jiang Lei’s girlfriend, Yang Gaoshu, as soon as they arrived in the town. Jiang Lei was the one who spotted her.
It was a cold day, and Yang Gaoshu wore a skirt, a thick woolen coat, a pair of high-heeled boots, and a hat. It was rare to see such a fas.h.i.+onable outfit in town.
Yang Gaoshu was a beautiful woman. She had a gorgeous face, and she knew how to dress. Wherever she went, people would turn to look at her.
“This is my sister, Jiang Yao. You’ve seen her before; do you recognize her?” Jiang Lei saw Yang Gaoshu and went to hold her hand. Then, he began to show off. “Do you see this outfit on me? My sister bought it for me from Nanjiang City! Everyone said that I’m handsome when they saw me today. She bought me more, and I will wear one for my brother’s wedding, and one for the new year. I’ll wear them when I visit you at your house. It’ll make you look good!”
Then, Jiang Lei remembered and asked, “Didn’t you say that you’re working today? What are you doing here? You’re dressed so beautifully. Are you here to give me a surprise?”
Jiang Yao rolled her eyes when she heard her brother’s words. Why were people in love so stupid?
She did not think that her second brother was that r.e.t.a.r.ded. How could he ask such a question when he was with Yang Gaoshu?
“What’s wrong?” Jiang Jie noticed Jiang Yao’s expression; he looked at her with suspicion. He lowered his voice and asked, “You don’t like your second brother’s girlfriend?”
“I don’t like her. I hate her!” Jiang Yao did not conceal her hatred for Yang Gaoshu. When her second brother did not stop talking to his girlfriend, she shouted at him. “Second Brother, let’s go! Don’t waste time!”
“You and Eldest Brother can go first. I’ll catch up with you later!” Jiang Lei waved his hand at Jiang Yao and Jiang Jie; he did not even turn to look at them.
Jiang Yao was annoyed; she cursed Jiang Lei. Then, she held her eldest brother’s hand and said, “Eldest Brother, let’s go. Ignore that fool!”
