C98 She Couldn't Hold on to the Marriage of Three People

Ji Nian looked at the gravestone at the front, and there was a picture of an old lady on it. This was her grandmother, Qiao Jingya. In the image, her grandmother always meticulously combed her long hair to the back of her head. Even her smile was dull, as if she did not like smiling.

Later on, she realized that it was not that her grandmother did not like smiling, but that she was used to being so indifferent. As the head of the family, she had to have that kind of power. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for a woman who had lost a wife to support the family business.

Perhaps it was because her grandmother had witnessed her mother's divorce that she told her that Ji Nian couldn't get a divorce. If she got a divorce, she would be bullied and looked down upon.

But what should she do now? Her marriage had come to an end, and she had let down her grandmother's expectations.

She could not help but lean her head against her grandmother's tombstone. She closed her eyes tiredly and could not hold on any longer. In the marriage of three people, she really could not hold on any longer.

After the rain and the passing of time, her grandmother's solitary courtyard had turned into an old man who was in his twilight years. Even so, she could still live. After her grandmother passed away, the people here dispersed. Ji Nian paid the neighbor Aunt Fu a sum of money and asked her to help look after the courtyard.

In these few years, Phoenix City had changed a lot. Many old buildings had been demolished and rebuilt. Only Ji Nian was unwilling to tear down this courtyard.

Aunt Fu was a cheerful auntie and had a good relationship with the neighbors. While helping to look after the courtyard, she also liked to invite aunties and aunties to chat under the big tree in the courtyard. Her days were leisurely. Embroidery was popular among aunties and aunties, and it was also the most difficult type of embroidery. It could be embroidered for two to three months, or even a year. It could be done with trivial matters that they had heard about while gossiping.

Ji Nian stayed here for four days. Every afternoon, these aunties and aunties would come here to do such a thing. She was very envious of their leisure time.

On the fifth day, Ji Nian went out for a walk early in the morning and did not return to Phoenix City for a long time. It was rare that she was in a mood today, so she went out for a walk.

When she walked around and came back, the sounds of the aunties and aunties in the courtyard could be heard. Ji Nian had heard them talking about which family would not be so high-profile these few days. Why was she laughing so happily now?

Just as she lifted her leg and walked into the courtyard, she saw from afar that under the big tree, the stone chairs beside the round stone table were already surrounded by women and all of them had smiles on their faces.

Under this kind of situation, the man standing in the middle of the group of women became more and more eye-catching. His tall and slender figure, his gentlemanly and proper behavior, he was giving the gifts in his hands to the women one by one. No wonder these aunties were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths and praised this young man for being so handsome. This young man was really polite. This young man was really considerate and even brought gifts for them. They almost turned him back to be their son-in-law.

Ji Nian saw this scene and was stunned for a moment before she frowned. Why would Mu Tingye appear here? Was he chasing after her? It was not strange for someone like him to know that she was here.

She looked at that man with disdain. He was able to mesmerize those aunties and aunties with a faint smile, and even brought so many gifts to these women. This man's method of winning over people's hearts was truly amazing.

She could not be bothered with why he wanted to give those women gifts. She only came back to this place to seek peace and quiet, so she immediately turned around and wanted to leave, pretending not to see him.

Aunt Fu, on the other hand, had sharp eyes and saw her standing at the entrance of the courtyard. She immediately shouted, "Nian Nian, you're back? Quickly come over. Your man is looking for you."

Ji Nian's footsteps paused because the corners of her eyes twitched when she heard this. When did Mu Tingye become her man? What did he say to those women?

She clenched her fists and took a deep breath. She felt that it was necessary to tell Mu Tingye clearly that the conditions she agreed to were invalid. She could not be played by him like this!

After adjusting her state of mind, she turned around and walked over. Her eyes kept staring at the man who was waiting for her with a smile on his lips. When she saw his smile, she felt that it was extremely hypocritical!

"Mu Tingye." She said very unhappily.

Mu Tingye could clearly see the dissatisfaction in her eyes. His smile did not change. He did not care at all. He stretched out his long arm and actually hugged her. "Is it enough for you to come back and stay here? Shouldn't we go back? " His tone was as if he was the husband who had come to pick up his wife to relieve her boredom.

Ji Nian's heart was burning with anger. How could he be so thick-skinned?

Before she could say anything, the aunties and aunties by the side looked at the two of them with a warm expression and laughed out loud.

"Nian Nian, I didn't think that your man would be so handsome and even bring so many gifts over. How considerate."

"Yeah, yeah, Nian. You just came back to live for a few days and your man is already anxious to find you. Looks like you guys are very lovey-dovey."

The group of women started to tease each other. The people in Phoenix City liked to call their husband 'your man'. They did not know who Ji Nian was married to.

Ji Nian had a headache. Why could Mu Tingye buy people's hearts all of a sudden no matter where he went? He could conquer a group of aunties. How detestable!

To prevent the aunties from saying more nonsense, Ji Nian quickly dragged Mu Tingye into the house and said to Aunt Fu with a smile, "You guys take a seat first. I will talk to him in the house."

When she turned back to face Mu Tingye, her smile immediately faded. It seemed that she was very anxious to take him away.

When the mamas behind saw Ji Nian busy taking away her man, they did not forget to tease him. " Oh, these few days I haven't seen you, you must have missed me too much, right?"2

"Isn't there a saying that if you don't see him for a day, it will be like three years and autumn? I think that's the situation they're in right now. "

When Ji Nian heard these words, she was angry in her heart and did not dare to look back at all. She just pulled Mu Tingye into the house.

Mu Tingye did not resist and let her pull him in.

Once inside the house, Ji Nian immediately let go of him and said coldly, "What are you doing here?"

Mu Tingye had a meaningful smile on his lips and did not answer her. Instead, he looked at the building.

"This is where you lived when you were young? This building looks old. Should I renovate it?"

Ji Nian did not have the mood to discuss the renovation of the old building with him. He did not want to look like a guest here, okay?

Before she could finish her sentence, Mu Tingye went straight up the stairs and said, "Nian Nian, your room is upstairs, right?"

Ji Nian's eyes twitched. Why did he ask this? Looking at his posture, he still wanted to visit her room?

She hurriedly chased after him. "Mu Tingye? Without someone like you, how could he wander around other people's house without permission? You are too rude! "

She said this because she was nervous that he would go to her room. Grandma said that girls couldn't let men into their rooms.

The living room was in the middle of the second floor, and there were two bedrooms on the other side. The door of one of the bedrooms was closed, and the door of the other bedroom was open. The room with the door closed was the elder sister's room. Ji Nian had been staying here for the past few days. Therefore, the bedroom door was not closed.

There was a curtain made of crystal beads on the bedroom door. Mu Tingye unceremoniously opened the curtain and walked in. "This is your room?" As soon as he finished speaking, he started to size up the bedroom.

It could not be considered spacious. It was covered with broken flower sheets. On the right side, there was an old-fashioned dressing table. Next to it were two windows with wooden windows. The window was facing a big tree in the yard.

It was a very simple female bedroom, and it looked delicate and warm.

Ji Nian saw that the man was standing in her room and looking at her. She was not angry but embarrassed. It seemed like she was very unwilling to let him see what her room was like. She also forgot to ask why he came here. Instead, she pushed him, "Get out!"
