Chapter 313
Ever since Aunt Xie became somewhat mad and insane, Father Yao no longer slept in the same room with her. It was because when Aunt Xie became ill, she would become so dull and indifferent to her family that it was truly a tormenting situation. So Father Yao partitioned off a small room in the house to serve as Aunt Xie's room.
After Zhong Lan brought Aunt Xie to her room, she smelled a foul odor and saw a puddle of water under the feet where Aunt Xie was standing. Zhong Lan knew that Aunt Xie had urinated in her pants.
Aunt Xie is like this now. Sometimes she goes to the public toilet by herself, and sometimes she just poops in her pants like she is doing now.
Zhong Lan turned a blind eye, let Aunt Xie sit on the chair by herself, and went to cook.
Halfway through the meal, Yao Hong and Yao's father came back.
When Yao Hong came back, he saw his mother had wet her pants. He went to the kitchen to find Zhong Lan and said, "Mom wet her pants. Go change her pants."
"Can't you see I'm cooking? Go change it yourself." Zhong Lan said without raising her head.
Yao Hong curled his lips and said, "Mom is a woman, how can I change it for her?"
"She is your biological mother. If you don't change her, who can you expect? I don't have time to change her. If you don't care about your own mother, just let her suffer like that." Zhong Lan said coldly.
Yao Hong had no choice but to go and change Aunt Xie's pants.
After Zhong Lan finished cooking, she served Aunt Xie's portion, placed it in front of her, and said softly, "Mom, eat by yourself."
Then she sat at the table and ate her own food, ignoring Aunt Xie.
Aunt Xie picked up the chopsticks, took two bites stupidly, and suddenly went crazy. She threw the chopsticks on the ground, swept the bowl on the ground, and made a "wow wow wow" sound in her mouth. No one knew what she was angry about.
Zhong Lan didn't move at all. She continued to eat her own food while picking up some food for Yao Zaoer and telling her to eat more.
Yao's father and Yao Hong were both busy eating and didn't move.
Aunt Xie kept sweeping her hands across the table in front of her, moaning non-stop, her eyes red with anger. But apart from Yao Zao'er, who stole a few glances at her, no one else at the table paid any attention to her.
Father Yao couldn't bear to watch it any longer and said to Zhong Lan, "When you're done eating, feed your mother."
"Dad, Mom is your wife, you feed her." Zhong Lan said coldly.
Father Yao was stuck for a moment, his expression becoming unhappy: "You are not her daughter-in-law yet, and you don't care about her?"
"To be frank, it's not me who made Mom like this. There's still a layer of relationship between her and me. You're the ones closest to her. If you don't care about her, why should I?" Zhong Lan said, "Besides, Mom made Zao'er like this, and I resent her deeply. If you don't care about her, I won't care either."
When Father Yao saw the scar on Yao Zaoer's neck, most of the unhappiness in his heart disappeared. He sighed slightly and stopped talking.
In the end, it was Yao Hong and Yao's father who, one holding Aunt Xie down and the other feeding her, forced Aunt Xie to eat half a bowl of rice.
Zhong Lan glanced at Yao's father's graying hair, said nothing, and went to clean up the dishes.
Yao Yi's death was a great blow not only to Aunt Xie, but also to Yao's father. However, Yao's father was more open-minded than Aunt Xie. Even without Yao Yi, he still had Yao Hong and Yao Zao'er. Moreover, he had long suspected that Yao Yi had been spoiled by Aunt Xie, and with Yao Yi's personality, something bad would happen sooner or later.
However, he did not expect such a big thing to happen, so big that it cost Yao Yi his own life.
Looking at his increasingly indifferent daughter-in-law and the increasingly broken family, Father Yao felt exhausted and didn't even have the energy to fight or argue with his daughter-in-law.
If you ask yourself, although Zhong Lan doesn't take care of Aunt Xie, she still takes good care of the house inside and out.
In view of this, Yao's father let Zhong Lan go and stopped arguing with her.
The Yao family was shrouded in dark clouds, while the Shen family was much more cheerful and sunny.
Haohao and Ranran hadn't seen Chen Yao for the whole morning and missed him very much. When they saw Chen Yao coming back, the two little guys hung on him like sloths and kept shouting "Dad——" and "Dad——".
But after lunch, when it was time to go to bed, the two little ones started arguing over who should sleep next to their mother.
"I want to sleep with my mother!" said Haohao.
"I want to sleep leaning on my mother!" Ranran said with her hands on her hips.
"Yesterday you slept leaning on your mother, today it's my turn to sleep leaning on your mother." Haohao said.
"No! I still want to sleep with my mother!" Ranran said.
Shen Yao pretended to be sad and said, "You guys were calling me daddy so happily just now and asked me to play with you. Why don't you want to sleep with me now?"
Ranran blurted out: "Mom's body is more fragrant and softer, and it's more comfortable to sleep with mom in my arms."
Haohao rolled his eyes and comforted Shen Yao: "Dad, I will sleep with you tomorrow. Today I will sleep with mom first."
Shen Yao looked at him amusedly: “You said the same thing yesterday.”
Haohao suddenly realized what was happening and said, "But I did sleep next to you yesterday!"
"What about the day before yesterday? What about the day before yesterday?" Shen Yao looked at him.
Haohao puffed up his cheeks guiltily and stopped talking.
"Little clever ghost." Shen Yao flicked Haohao's forehead.
Chen Guifeng came over, held Haohao and Ranran in her arms, and took them out holding their hands.
"Your dad will have to get up and go to work after a short nap, so don't bother him. Let's go to grandma's room and sleep with her."
The two little guys followed Chen Guifeng obediently.
Shen Yao smiled helplessly and shook his head: "You are so young, and you know how to snatch you from me."
"They only fought over me when I was a child. When I grew up and knew the difference between men and women, they stopped fighting over me." Ye Fuyue said with a smile.
Chen Yao hugged Ye Fuyue: "You can't snatch me when I was little. I haven't hugged my wife enough, and they still want to snatch you from me."
Ye Fuyue smiled and pushed Chen Yao: "You are really good even if you are jealous of your own son."
Chen Yao pulled Ye Fuyue to lie on the bed and let her rest her head in his arms.
"Ye Fuyun is pregnant?" Shen Yao suddenly asked.
"Yeah. Did you hear what the aunties in the compound said?" Ye Fuyue looked at him.
"No. I met her on the way back. She must have just come back from buying groceries. She put her hand on her belly. If anyone got close to her, she would tell them to stay away from her and not touch her because she was pregnant." Shen Yao said.
Ye Fuyue could imagine such a scene.
Ye Fuyun was only three months pregnant, so her pregnancy probably wasn't showing yet. Her frightening yelling must have left passersby speechless.
Sure enough, Shen Yao continued, "Some people were only a step or two away from her, and she would yell, 'Stay away from me, don't touch me, I'm pregnant,' leaving everyone speechless. One aunt couldn't stand it anymore and said, 'I didn't touch you, why are you yelling? If you're so afraid of being touched, why don't you just stay out of the house.' Ye Fuyun started arguing with the other person, saying that the baby in her belly was precious, and if she had a miscarriage because of her, how would she compensate her? The two started arguing on the road like that."
