Yu Yin didn't want to hear any nonsense, so she made an excuse to check on the child and went upstairs.

After Yu Yin left, Lu Xiaogu couldn't stop her tears from flowing. She was too embarrassed to cry in front of her niece-in-law; it was too shameful.

"Before you got married, your father and I doted on you. How come you've made such a mess of your life after getting married, having children, and becoming a grandmother?"

Grandma Lu was exasperated and couldn't understand how someone who wasn't stupid or idiotic could live such a muddled life and become so listless.

"Mom, I don't want this either. I can't sleep at night and I ask myself, I was also raised by my parents and went to a proper university, so why is my life going downhill?"

“Supporting the Third Front construction caused delays for the children, so we wanted to make up for it. Unexpectedly, the eldest child’s family complained that we were a burden to them. We took care of the second child, and the second child felt wronged because he did hard work and earned little. Feifei took the exam for several years and finally got into a junior college.”

"The whole family was crammed together, and we always felt like we were being taken advantage of. Guoqiang and I wanted everything to be good for our children, but in the end, we were dissatisfied with all of them."

Aunt Lu had been holding it in for too long. She cried as she spoke, saying that she had been wanting to vent about all this mess to someone for a long time.

Grandma Lu looked at her daughter, whose hair had turned white, and didn't know what to say to her.

Mr. Lu and his third uncle were also helpless. Every family has its own problems, and every family is in a mess.

Grandpa Lu had no expression. Life is something you have to live yourself. Who has it easy these days?

The courtyard was quiet except for the occasional sobs of Aunt Lu.

Lu Shuyun regretted not leaving with her sister-in-law earlier; leaving now felt inappropriate, and she was in agony.

Lu Shurui and Lu Shuqi exchanged a glance. Their aunt's problem was that she hadn't realized it herself—she was meddling too much.
