When Yang's mother saw her usually mild-tempered son lose his temper like this, she felt both wronged and heartbroken.

Before he got married, her son had always been incredibly obedient to her; everyone praised Yang Xuechang as a filial and good son. Who would have thought that after getting married and having children, he would become so irritable?

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, believing that Yang Xuechang's current state was all due to Duan Meishan's instigation.

She was convinced that Duan Meishan was a "femme fatale" who appeared gentle on the outside but was vicious on the inside.

Yang Xuechang was unaware of his mother's thoughts. He knew that losing his temper now would be useless, and the most urgent thing was to handle the matter properly and not leave any hidden dangers for his good brother.

"Dad, Mom, you can stay at home for the next few days. Don't rush to pack your things at the Imperial Capital Compound. I'll find you a place to live later."

I definitely can't stay in the Imperial Capital Compound anymore. With Gu Huaicheng and Feng Ximan's "perseverance," they'll come knocking on my door sooner or later.

He couldn't risk letting his parents go back to live there, lest his mother lose her temper over a mere ten yuan.

Mr. Yang had no objection to Yang Xuechang's arrangements, but Mrs. Yang was not happy about them.

"Xuechang, now that we've moved back, why spend money to rent a place again? Isn't that unnecessary?"

Yang Xuechang made his stance clear and firm: "Mom, as Tiantian's father, I don't want my daughter to live with Wangwang anymore, in order to prevent the high fever and hospitalization from happening again."

This statement is also a veiled refusal to let Yang's mother take Tian Tian.

Yang's mother wasn't stupid; she understood what her son meant. As long as Wangwang was still here, she would never have the chance to live in her son's house.

She glanced at Wangwang, seemingly lost in thought.

“Xuechang, this is what I’m thinking. It’s too much trouble for Wangwang to study in the capital. Your third sister and brother-in-law don’t earn high salaries, and they have six children to support. They can’t afford to pay for Wangwang’s schooling in the capital. I’m reluctant to let you pay for it. How about we have your third sister bring Wangwang back after a while?”

Yang Xuechang didn't say anything, but the expression on his face softened.

What Yang's mother said was true. Although he has a good income now, in another year, Tian Tian will also have to go to school, and with the additional burden of Wang Wang's tuition, the pressure will still be great.

"You should discuss this with your third sister. I won't say anything more."

Seeing that Yang Xuechang's complexion had improved slightly, Yang's mother was overjoyed and immediately put forward her conditions:

“Then send Wangwang back to his hometown. Your dad and I won’t move out. If you ask me, you and Shanshan should take advantage of the fact that your dad and I are still in good health and have a second child. Look at Jingya across the street, she’s so successful, she had a son right away.”

Here we go again, here we go again.

Yang Xuechang rubbed his temples, looking exasperated, and mumbled, "We'll talk about that later, no rush."

"Why aren't you in a hurry? Xuechang, you're already thirty-two! Shanshan is twenty-nine this year, isn't she? Once a woman is over thirty, childbirth becomes much more dangerous, so it's better to do it sooner rather than later!"

Seeing Yang Xuechang's troubled expression, Yang's father tugged at Yang's mother's arm and said:

"Alright, shut up for a bit! Xuechang hasn't graduated with his master's degree yet, Shanshan is busy with work, and Tiantian is still too young. Now is not the time to have children. The young couple has their own plans, so you shouldn't interfere!"

Before Yang's mother could say anything more, Yang Xuechang strode out, saying, "Dad, Mom, it's getting late. You should get ready and get some rest. I'm going to check on the neighbors across the street."

Before Yang's mother could speak, Yang Xuechang quickly made his escape.

Upon entering the Gu family home, Yang Xuechang shuffled down. Gu Zhiyun poured him a glass of water, and the two sat down on the sofa.

Yang Xuechang clasped his hands together awkwardly, too ashamed to look up.

"Old Gu, it's all my fault for not thinking things through. Your address was given out by my mother. I've already had them move back, and we'll find them a new place to live in a few days."

Gu Zhiyun didn't blame him at all. He knew that Yang Xuechang must have told Yang's parents that the news hadn't been leaked from Yang Xuechang's mouth, so he had no reason to give Yang Xuechang a hard time.

"Brother Yang, don't take it too hard. Our family has already taken care of this matter, and my fourth uncle won't bother us for the time being."

After Yang Xuechang left, Gu Zhiyun returned to the bedroom. Shen Jingyan had just fed Rui Rui, and the little one was already asleep.

“Brother Yun, I’ve thought about it again and again, and I still feel that hiding from your fourth uncle like this is not a solution.”

Gu Zhiyun sighed softly, his handsome eyebrows furrowing into a dark line.

"I think the best way is to let them go back to where they came from."

Gu Zhiyun raised his eyes and looked intently at Shen Jingyan.

When it comes to handling interpersonal relationships, his younger wife is always more quick-witted and resourceful than him. He can't imagine how terrible the family would be without her advice and suggestions.

He'll probably be drained dry by these greedy relatives.

Shen Jingyan leaned back, and Gu Zhiyun quickly placed a soft pillow under her back.

When the mother was discharged from the hospital, the doctor specifically instructed her that she must not experience back pain or stiffness, as this could easily lead to long-term complications.

While considering her words carefully, Shen Jingyan said, "Your fourth uncle and aunt still have American citizenship, right? Their visas must have expired long ago when they came back to China this time, right? It's just that the country is now open to the outside world, and it's relatively easy for foreigners to enter, so they've been able to stay in the country until now. Otherwise, they would have been deported long ago."
