ABRWF Chapter 48.2

She hesitated for a moment and then forced a smile: “Nan Nan, how about Mom taking you to the mall to buy clothes tomorrow? The new fall models from the luxury stores have arrived.”

Jiang Nanshu: “?”

“No, I have something big to do tomorrow.”

She hesitated for a moment and refused: “Thank you, Mom. I still have clothes. I want to stay at home and rest tomorrow.”

Jiang’s mother was also helpless.

“Can we have dinner now? I’m hungry.”

At this moment, she still had the mind to eat.

Jiang Zhouye couldn’t eat a bit.

The other people went upstairs after eating.

Jiang Nanshu didn’t know what they were doing mysteriously. It had nothing to do with her anyway.

In the evening, Jiang Nanshu was lying on her balcony enjoying the breeze and looking toward the villa next door. The lights were on, which meant that the people who came yesterday had not left yet.

Suddenly, a glittering object was thrown from the window of the villa next door to the lawn outside.

Jiang Nanshu sat up straight at once.

She rubbed her eyes in uncertainty. The thing was really shiny under the streetlight.

If it wasn’t a diamond, what else could it be?

What kind of family next door was it? They just threw away diamonds just like that!

Since it was thrown away anyway, why not give it to her for free?

Jiang Nanshu looked at the wall between the two houses. If the diamond was still there tomorrow, she would go there quietly.

Jiang Nanshu slept particularly soundly as she dreamed of becoming rich overnight.

But the other members of the Jiang family couldn’t sleep until the early morning.

Jiang’s father and Jiang’s mother were even more worried. They tossed and turned and couldn’t sleep.

So, they both sat up.

“Huanye, what do you think we should do about Nan Nan’s situation? How can her friend with impure thoughts be worthy of Ah Ye?”

Jiang’s mother tried to hold back, but she still couldn’t help saying, “Nan Nan is really something. We are her family. If she doesn’t do good for her family, why does she still hope for bad things for us? We have been good to her in the past three years, right?”

Jiang’s father leaned against the head of the bed and sighed deeply: “Okay, stop talking.”

“The doctor said that Nan Nan has a serious mental illness. Do you remember when she first came? She was so well-behaved at that time. If you didn’t despise her for not knowing anything, not being able to play the piano, not being able to paint, and not being able to behave like a lady, and she even offered you water to please you, but you didn’t take it and only cared about Leyi, would she have become like this?”

Jiang’s mother felt uncomfortable for a moment.

It’s not that she doesn’t love her daughter.

But it is her face that prevents her from letting go of all external vanity.

She devotes herself wholeheartedly to both the upbringing of her children and her family.

When others praise her children, it’s the same as praising her.

Those noble ladies didn’t say anything on the surface, but they kept calling Jiang Nanshu a country girl and told her to teach her well. These words were like invisible slaps on her face, burning her.

Was it because she didn’t want to teach her?

She missed Jiang Nanshu’s life for 16 years, wasn’t it too late?

It takes a lot of time and energy to train a qualified lady from a noble family, and it is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

She said with a tense face: “I was in a bad mood during that time, and then I figured it out. If she can’t learn, then she can’t learn. Can the Jiang family still treat her badly? But look at what she has become in the end? I didn’t teach her these dirty tricks.”

Then she was a little sad: “You said, why would there be such a thing as a wrong child? How can Leyi not be our biological daughter…”

“Shuling! Don’t say such things in the future. If Nan Nan hears it, she will be sad.” Jiang’s father’s voice was very heavy.

Jiang’s mother couldn’t help wiping away tears: “Forget it, if she does something wrong, just teach her a lesson. I will comfort Ah Ye. I will catch Nan Nan in the act tomorrow and teach her a lesson.”

Translator’s Comment:

I really, really don’t like everyone in this family, especially that one person. That person is really, really the worst.

But I won’t tell you who the person is and what the reason is. 🙂 *imitate my Sister Jiang Nanshu’s style*
