When cousin Lin Shuang's parents passed away, she was adopted by Lin Man's parents and became the family's darling.
Lin Man, on the other hand, became the sandwiched punching bag,...
Chapter 1013 (Page 1/2)
Lin Man's words were like a sharp sword, piercing Xiao Ya's heart straight, and she was shocked.
She really couldn't understand why such a gentle and virtuous daughter-in-law would say such harsh words today. She said that her beloved daughter had already turned into a pile of bones. Wasn't this like stabbing a knife into her gentle heart?
Qiao Sitian died young, which was a pity for her as an outsider. It reminded her of Qingyan's ex-wife Ling Fei.
"Manman, the child from the Qiao family has been dead for many years. Haven't you let it go yet?" Xiao Ya asked cautiously.
Lin Man's expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure. She replied calmly, "Mom, I've let this matter go a long time ago.
Over the years, I have never mentioned them again, and the Qiao family has not disturbed my life again. Why do you suddenly want to mention them again? "
Xiao Ya sighed and explained, "Manman, I didn't mean to bring them up on purpose. It's just that your mother said she's sick and may not have much time left.
She now regrets not getting you back sooner, and she wants to apologize to you. So, I'd like to ask you if you could go over and talk to her for a few minutes?"
Lin Man never expected that her mother-in-law would be so nosy.
The anger in her heart was instantly ignited. If she hadn't been at the Song family's banquet with so many guests, she would have probably thrown down her chopsticks and left.
"Mom, can't we talk about it later?" Lin Man's tone was obviously impatient. She really didn't want to talk about this matter at this time.
Xiao Ya thought Lin Man agreed, so she didn't say anything else. Someone came to serve the food, and she picked up the chopsticks to pick up some food to feed her granddaughter.
Lin Man picked up her chopsticks and started eating, completely ignoring her talkative and nosy mother-in-law.

All ten dishes were served. Lin Man had just put down her chopsticks after finishing her meal when suddenly, a deafening sound of firecrackers rang out.
At the same time, along with the sound of firecrackers, there were also the sobbing and extremely sad cries of several women.
The sudden sound instantly quieted the originally noisy scene.
The guests put down their bowls and chopsticks and stood up. At this moment, someone started to dismantle the mourning hall. A group of men with towels tied around their wrists walked towards the mourning hall.
Lin Man knew very well that this meant that the next step was to carry the coffin.
She stood up hurriedly and planned to walk to a crowded place, away from the mourning hall.
However, just as she was about to take a step, her mother-in-law, without saying a word, stuffed Huo Anyan into Lin Man's arms and said, "Manman, please help take care of Yanyan. I'll go help Jingjing."
Lin Man looked down at her little niece who was forced into her arms, and couldn't help feeling helpless.
The mother-in-law was so worried about Song Jingjing, afraid that she would faint from crying, so she ran to help her and even ignored her granddaughter.
Just when Lin Man was feeling a little embarrassed, Huo Qinghuan came over.
He smiled and said to Lin Man, "Sister-in-law, let me hold Yanyan, otherwise she will kick your clothes to pieces." After that, without waiting for Lin Man's response, he reached out and took Huo Anyan over.
"Then hold it."
Lin Man walked to the side, and Huo Qinghuan followed her there, holding Huo Anyan.
Huo Junshan came over holding Huo Anran and asked Huo Qinghuan, "Where's your mother?"
Huo Qinghuan held her niece in one hand and pointed at the mourning hall with the other and said, "Mom went to help my second sister-in-law."
