Past life protagonist Lu Siqiao was subjected to endless bullying and abuse by her relatives, suffering from severe depression. She overheard her mother planning to sell her kidney for money, and i...
"Old Chen said you know a remarkable doctor."
"I feel much better."
Grandpa Qian looked at Lu Siqiao with a kind expression, "You saved my life. Just tell me what you want."
Lu Siqiao scratched her head shyly, but pointed at Qian Wenjie and said, "Grandpa Qian, Brother Wenjie has already paid you. If you want to thank him, reward him."
Grandpa Qian looked at Qian Wenjie and smiled: "Wenjie, what do you want?"
Qian Wenjie's face was conflicted. Finally, he sighed, pushed Qian Wenhua forward, and said to him, "Grandpa, I told you, don't be angry." After receiving confirmation, he smiled bitterly and said, "Grandson wants Grandpa to approve Wenhua's divorce from Chen Dongzhi."
Not only was Grandpa Qian shocked, but Qian Wenhua also panicked and said, "Second Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I divorce Chen Dongzhi?"
Lu Siqiao thought that at most he would ask Grandpa Qian to uphold justice for Qian Wenhua, but she didn't expect that he was serious.
"Reason?" Master Qian asked sternly.
Qian Wenjie gritted his teeth and said, "Chen Dongzhi is out there living a life of debauchery and he's using all sorts of excuses to humiliate Wenhua because she can't get pregnant. I don't want her to suffer any more. I'd rather she be alone."
Upon hearing this, Qian Wenhua burst into tears.
Grandpa Qian shook his head: "Wenjie, how can a marriage between wealthy and powerful families be treated so lightly?"
"What kind of aristocratic family does Chen Dongzhi come from? He's just a commoner. He only got close to the Qian family and forgot who he is. Even if Wen Hua isn't the Qian family's biological daughter, they raised her themselves. How dare he bully her?" Qian Wenjie said firmly.
Grandpa Qian still wouldn't budge: "Men, which one can resist? As long as they come home, that's all that matters. If they can't have children, they can adopt one. There's no hurdle they can't overcome."
“Besides, Chen Dongzhi climbed to the position of deputy general manager through his own abilities, as everyone has witnessed. Our Qian family can’t just kick him out.” He looked at Qian Wenhua, “Wenhua, what do you think?”
Qian Wenhua wiped away his tears and said, "Granddaughter will leave everything to her great-grandfather."
“Sigh, you were the one who insisted on marrying him back then. That was because his desires hadn’t swelled and he still held onto his original intentions. But society is a big melting pot, and who can remain faithful to one person forever?” Old Master Qian glanced at Qian Wenjie. “You have the nerve to criticize others, but don’t you think about yourself?”
Qian Wenjie was momentarily speechless.
Qian Wenhua gritted her teeth and thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Great-Grandpa, could you allow your granddaughter to go out and work?"
She remembered Lu Siqiao's suggestion and said hopefully.
This time, Mr. Qian did not refuse her.
When they left Master Qian's room, Qian Wenjie looked gloomy. Lu Siqiao said, "You can't get fat in one bite. The current result is the best."
Qian Wenhua also advised, "Second brother, I know you care about me, but if you rashly ask the Qian family to abandon Chen Dongzhi, they won't agree. Besides, we haven't even reached the point of getting a divorce."
Qian Wenjie nodded: "Wenhua, sooner or later, your second brother will give you true freedom."
A maid walked in and said to Qian Wenhua, "Miss, the young master's parents have arrived and are waiting for you at the villa. They want you to go there quickly."
Qian Wenhua's face turned pale instantly, and he hurriedly said, "I understand."
To make it easier to take care of Grandpa Qian, Qian Wenguo specially spent money to buy a villa nearby for Qian Wenhua and his wife to live in.
Chen Dongzhi's parents were from Y City and had come from their hometown to stay with their son. They were supposed to pick him up at the airport, but Qian Wenhua was worried about his grandfather's health, so he only sent the housekeeper to pick him up.
Since becoming Qian's son-in-law, Chen Dongzhi's personality has become much more arrogant. Qian Wenhua, because she has not had children, is under pressure and her status has become humble and fearful.
Seeing her looking like she was facing a formidable enemy, Qian Wenjie was worried and followed her with Lu Siqiao.
A five-minute walk brought me to the Chen family's villa. The gate was wide open, and several sharp female voices came from inside.
"Wenhua, I'm not trying to be mean, but now that you're a member of the Chen family, you should respect some of the rules." The woman, with wavy hair and legs crossed, pointed at Qian Wenhua, who was squatting on the ground handing her slippers. "This is the first time my in-laws have come to visit, and this is how you treat me? Are you deliberately trying to intimidate us?"
"Sister-in-law, my brother said you would come to pick us up, but you didn't come. We almost got on the bus with someone else." A girl in her early twenties also complained.
Qian Wenhua lowered his head and said softly, "My grandfather is sick, and a doctor has been called to come and see him. I usually take care of him, so I have to be there."
Seeing her humble appearance, Qian Wenjie, who was outside the courtyard, was so angry that he wanted to rush up and slap the Chen mother and daughter a few times.
Lu Siqiao stopped him and smiled slyly: "Your behavior is exactly what Chen Dongzhi wants. He's just worried about not being able to find any fault with you."
"You're like this..." she whispered in his ear.
Then, she went into the hall and said to Qian Wenhua, "Sister Wenhua, Great-Grandpa wants you to come over."
Upon seeing that it was her, Qian Wenhua hurriedly asked, "Qiaowa, is Great-Grandpa feeling unwell?"
“My great-grandfather needs someone by his side, so I came to check on him.” Lu Siqiao turned to look at the Chen family mother and daughter, her eyes smiling. “So it’s the Chen family, my in-laws. I heard you complaining earlier that Sister Wenhua didn’t come to pick you up, is that right?”
When Chen's mother heard the name Master Qian, she was still a little flustered. Then she remembered that her son said that Master Qian had been bedridden for a long time and was like a living dead man. Qian Wenhua was just a maid who served him.
On the contrary, Chen Dongzhi is doing very well in the Qian family. He was even promoted to deputy general manager a few days ago and is enjoying great success.
Chen Dongzhi even boasted that the Qian family couldn't do without him, and that even Qian Wenhua was treated like a servant in front of him.
I never expected this little girl to be so blind and dare to question me.
Mother Chen immediately became arrogant, slightly raising her chin and glancing at Lu Siqiao, saying, "What does my disciplining of my daughter-in-law have to do with the Qian family? A woman follows her husband wherever he goes. Even if Grandpa Qian is sick, Qian Wenhua is still a member of the Chen family. Serving her parents-in-law and taking care of her husband is what she should do."
Lu Siqiao hesitated, "But Master Qian can't do without Sister Wenhua. Otherwise, I'll find you two more servants to take care of you."
"Can a maid serve you the same as a daughter-in-law? Besides, Qian Wenhua hasn't produced an heir for the Chen family yet. What if she can't have children? When Dongzhi comes back, I'll have a good talk with him." Chen's mother glared at Qian Wenhua, becoming more and more angry as she spoke.
This woman is good in every way, except she can't give birth to a son. What use is she?
The thought of not being able to hold her grandson for so long made Chen's mother's words turn harsh.
"I came here specifically to teach you how to be a wife."
Outside the door, Qian Wenjie pushed his grandfather in a wheelchair, listening to everything with a blank expression.
Grandpa Qian saw that yellow figure through the glass window.
Disappointed that they are not living up to their potential.
She has connections in public, and the Chen family has bullied her like this; yet, behind the scenes, they still haven't dealt with her properly.
This child is too honest.
