Reborn on My Wedding Night in the 70s, My Rough Husband Seduces My Soul

Her misogynistic mother accepted a high-priced bride price and married her to a man with disabled legs. She was ridiculed for half her life. Facing the婆婆's (mother-in-law's) constant nitpic...

Chapter 239: Finding Allies

Seeing that Ye Li had no expression on her face, Aunt Mu thought that she didn't understand the stakes involved, so she continued to talk to her: "Jiang Rui's mother-in-law is really... to put it bluntly, she is a shrew who is ten times more powerful than anyone else. Even your old lady gets a headache when she sees her! Do you know why she came here today?"

What else could Jiang Rui's mother-in-law come for?

That must be for his daughter Wang Sha!

Ye Li didn't even have to think about it, the first reaction in his mind was about what happened last night.

"Wang Sha had a miscarriage?" Ye Li asked.

"No, no." Aunt Mu waved her hands and moved closer to Ye Li. "I heard that they took an injection to preserve the pregnancy, and the baby was saved. When the couple came back, they were holding a lot of pregnancy-preserving medicine in their hands. The doctor said that they had to take the medicine all the time!"

Ye Li nodded: "Isn't it good that she didn't have a miscarriage? Then why did she come here?"

"What?" Aunt Mu sneered twice when she saw that Ye Li didn't understand. "Then you really underestimated the extent of Jiang Rui's mother-in-law's unreasonableness! The child is fine, but the money is spent? Can't work anymore? Where did the lost money come from? You have to ask me to make it up to you."

Having said that, Ye Li understood why Aunt Mu pulled her into the house to say these words.

...

...

This Aunt Mu is looking for an ally.

But Ye Li didn't plan to form an alliance with Aunt Mu! This person was unreliable. Even if they formed an alliance now, she might betray her again for some reason.

"Make amends? Then she can't find me! I was helping her and I really hit her! If she can't produce any evidence, she is framing me! Why should I give her money?" Ye Li made up his mind to ignore the matter.

"Yes, yes, yes." Aunt Mu also said hurriedly, "You said that this matter was originally their fault! My Yueqin didn't stay outside the door on purpose to scare Wang Sha. She ran into it when she went to the toilet in the middle of the night. Who can she blame for this?"

Ye Li did not respond. She did not see the specific situation, so she would not comment.

Seeing Ye Li didn't say anything, Aunt Mu hurriedly said, "Ye Li, you see, we are all unlucky in this matter! You said you were kind enough to help them, but she turned the tables and framed you. We didn't provoke her, but we were blamed. Yueqin went to the hospital to see her foot today. It was broken. She had to put on a plaster cast, get medicine, and ask for leave. I'm afraid she won't have money on hand for a while. Tell me, who can make money easily? Could it be that she was blackmailed like this? Auntie has an idea and wants to discuss it with you. I wonder if you agree."

"Aunt Mu, please speak."

"I was thinking, let's testify for each other! When we talk about this matter later, you testify for my Yueqin and say that my Yueqin didn't scare her, she scared herself! We will also testify for you and say that she fell by herself, and this matter has nothing to do with you." Aunt Mu said.

Ye Li understood, and the corners of her mouth curved up: "I don't need anyone to prove my story! She knows the truth better than anyone else! But it's hard to say about Yuan Yueqin's story! The two of them were shouting louder than each other last night, and it's not easy to deny it! Aunt Mu, I understand that you don't want to pay the money, but have you ever thought about whether this matter can be left alone now that Wang Sha's mother is here?"

"Then...what should we do? Ye Li, you are smart, you can think of a solution." Aunt Mu is in a state of panic now. Just now, Jiang Rui's mother-in-law called her into the house to do some calculations for her. The amount of money she has to pay is not small.

When I thought about giving this money away to others for nothing, my heart ached like hell.

"There's nothing I can do about this. Aunt Mu, you handle it! I just got back and haven't made dinner yet. I won't chat with you here! I'm leaving!" Ye Li said, turned around and left.

Yuan Yueqin curled her lips: "Mom, do you count on her?"

Aunt Mu turned around and said, "I don't count on her, but you? The doctor said today that your fracture was not caused by falling into a ditch! You have to tell me the reason."

When Yuan Yueqin heard her mother bring up this matter again, she felt a headache.

"Mom, I feel uncomfortable, have a headache, and feel weak all over. I want to take a nap!"

“Is this true or false?”

"Can I still lie to you?"

"Okay, you take a nap first! I'll cook later. I want to wait and see what's going on in that room!"

Ye Li came out of Aunt Mu's house and passed by Jiang Rui and Wang Sha's room. He heard a lot of talking inside. There were some unfamiliar voices and some familiar voices.

That familiar voice should be the voice of the neighbors.

It seems that after what happened last night, everyone knows that Wang Sha is pregnant and almost had a miscarriage, so everyone came to see her.

Ye Li returned to her room without stopping for a moment. She didn't even go to see Wang Sha.

She even hated herself a little now. Why did she go to help her last night? She should have just watched her lying on the ground!

Ye Li returned to the house, changed his clothes, washed his hands, and went to the kitchen to cook.

There was a pot of chicken soup simmering on the stove in the kitchen. It looked like it had been simmering for quite some time, and the rich aroma was wafting around the kitchen.

There are two fires in this kitchen, one is occupied and the other is idle.

Ye Li planned to cook dinner on another fire.

Jiang Xun was not at home tonight, so she was the only one eating dinner. After a tiring day, she had no appetite at the moment, so she simply cooked a bowl of dried noodles and two poached eggs.

When the noodles were cooked, she sprinkled some chopped green onions and drizzled two drops of sesame oil on them.

The meal was ready, she put it into a bowl and prepared to eat.

At this time, the kitchen entrance went dark and a small figure appeared. She had two pigtails and big eyes, but her face was yellow and her small body was very shriveled.

Ye Li felt that the little girl looked familiar, and after taking a closer look, he felt that the child's features resembled Jiang Rui's.

Suddenly, she remembered.

This little girl is Jiang Rui and Wang Sha’s daughter, Jiang Miao.

In her previous life, she and Jiang Miao did not see each other often, because the child was raised at her grandmother's house most of the time. Jiang Rui and Wang Sha would go there to see the child on weekends, and during festivals, Jiang Miao would be sent there to stay for two days before being picked up.

Ye Li didn't see Jiang Miao very often, because every New Year or other festival, Ye Li would go back to her parents' home, bringing a lot of things with her.
