Chapter 379: Chapter 218 Both are Disliked_1

When only three people remained in the room, Qian Yixiu said to Cheng Yue, "Mother will go upstairs first, Yixiu wants to have a word with your Brother Jiang alone."

Cheng Yue was quite shrewd and didn’t leave. Holding Qian Manjiang’s hand, she said to Qian Yixiu, "Mother won’t leave, Mother knows Yixiu doesn’t like Brother Jiang. If Mother leaves, what if you drive Brother Jiang out?" She pleaded, "Yixiu, for Mother’s sake, please don’t drive Brother Jiang away, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Manjiang felt incredibly heartbroken and said with teary eyes, "Yueyue, it’s all my fault. I’ve made you suffer over these years. It’s no wonder my daughter resents me; I should have come back sooner."

Cheng Yue shook her head and said, "Yueyue doesn’t blame Brother Jiang. As long as Brother Jiang is back, Yueyue is completely satisfied." Then, with moist eyes, she earnestly pleaded with Qian Yixiu, "Yixiu, you know, how much Mother longed for Brother Jiang, how hard it was. Mother can’t even remember how many days it has been... "

Cheng Yue’s tone was gentle to begin with, her words made not only Qian Manjiang feel a heat in his eyes and an unbearable itch in his heart, but even Qian Yixiu felt somewhat unwilling to be harsh. Helplessly, she said, "Mother, rest at ease, Yixiu won’t send him away. I just want to talk to him alone."

Cheng Yue still stood there, holding Qian Manjiang’s hand and pouting, refusing to move.

Really, favoritism over one’s daughter! Qian Yixiu felt sourness in her heart as well, not because she was upset, but because she was jealous. Normally, the person her Mother cherished the most was her, even Qian Yeejin came second. But now, for this man, she’s actually getting angry with her.

Qian Yixiu rolled her eyes grandly, helpless with her little mother, and could only give Qian Manjiang a meaningful look.

Right now, the person Qian Manjiang feared and wanted to please most was his daughter. Seeing his daughter giving him a signal, he quickly persuaded Cheng Yue, "Yueyue be good, go upstairs and rest for a bit, I’ll come up shortly."

Since Qian Manjiang himself was persuading her, Cheng Yue reluctantly nodded and said, "Then Yueyue will go freshen up first. Brother Jiang, please don’t leave, even if Yixiu tells you to, you mustn’t go." Suddenly, she thought of something; she pulled Qian Manjiang to the side room and whispered in his ear, "Brother Jiang, do you have any silver on you?"

Qian Manjiang was taken aback but still dutifully took out the purse from his bosom and said, "I’ve brought all the money back, totaling over five hundred taels of silver. I also bought Yueyue some beautiful jewelry, I’ll give them to you later."

Cheng Yue grinned as she took the purse and whispered, "Yixiu has always liked accounting and counting silver most, and then finding places to hide it. Give her all this silver, and she won’t be angry with you anymore." After speaking, she cleverly walked over and placed the purse on the table in front of Qian Yixiu, pursed her lips, and smiled, "Yixiu, this is the silver Father has given you, go ahead and count to see how much there is, get it on the books, and then hide it well so no outsiders will find it."

So she thinks she’s selling me off unknowingly?

Qian Yixiu was so angry her face turned red and her voice raised, "Mother, what do you take your daughter for? It doesn’t matter the amount, not even if it’s more money, your daughter couldn’t sell you out. I just want to talk to him in private; what are you worried about?"

Her daughter had never been so fierce with her. Seeing her daughter’s face turn red and her voice raised, Cheng Yue became a bit frightened and suddenly burst into tears, "Yixiu, don’t be angry, Mother just wanted to make you happy, not to drive Brother Jiang away..."

Qian Manjiang went over to embrace Cheng Yue in his arms and comfort her with a few words, then said to Qian Yixiu, "My girl, it’s right for you to be angry at your father and to speak harshly; your dad deserves it. But how can you treat your mother this way?"

Qian Yixiu also regretted her harsh tone, stood up, and took hold of Cheng Yue’s clothes, saying, "Mother, please stop crying, or you’ll not look pretty anymore. I’m not angry, how could your daughter bear to make our beautiful little mother upset? Rest assured, Yixiu is your daughter and will surely not harm you. I promised you, I will definitely not send him away. I just want to speak with her alone."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yue left, looking back every three steps.

With the room returned to calm, the two sat face to face at the table, and Qian Yixiu said, "My mother is kind, innocent, and naive; I won’t allow anyone to hurt her. Since you’re already with another woman, please stay away from my mother."

Qian Manjiang was taken aback and said blankly, "I’m with another woman? I’m not."

Qian Yixiu looked at Qian Manjiang for a moment; her little father was darker, more robust, and even more vigorous and imposing than eleven years ago, but that sense of integrity in his eyes still remained.
