Instead of sitting down, Xue's mother walked over to Chen Xiaoyue. She needed to clear away the trash first so that she could have a good environment to get along with her son and daughter-in-law.
So she said, "Chen family girl, I know why you're here. You want to break up Yanchen and Jingyan, but unfortunately, you're destined to fail. Although I'm new here and don't know what just happened between you two, I know that Yanchen and Jingyan are definitely in love. You probably won't have the chance to stand between them."
The implication is that you can't even be a mistress.
“Chen girl, for the sake of my acquaintance with your parents, I don’t want to say anything too harsh. If you still care about your reputation, you should leave here immediately.”
“Aunt Xue, Luo Zhiqing is of no help to Yanchen’s return to the city. If our two families join forces, we should be able to help Yanchen return to the city.”
“I don’t want to go back to the city right now. If I want to go back later, I will rely on my own abilities and I won’t need your family’s help.”
That's ridiculous. If he wants to go back, he'll go back to the army; he doesn't need to go back to the city at all.
Alternatively, he could stay here with Luo Jingyan and farm, without having to consider returning to the city.
Mother Xue said, "Chen girl, did you hear that? Our Yanchen doesn't need to rely on anyone. It's your freedom to stay here for a few days, and none of us can stop you, but you'd better not mess with Jingyan. Let me tell you, not only does Yanchen like Jingyan, but I like Jingyan too. Don't even mention that Yanchen won't date you, I wouldn't agree to you becoming our daughter-in-law. So, I advise you to give up on this idea as soon as possible."
She could never stand someone who was eager to break up other people's relationships.
Chen Xiaoyue was very sad, and tears welled up in her eyes involuntarily.
Mother Xue said, "What are you doing? It's as if we've bullied you."
"Auntie, I really like Yanchen."
"That's your business. Don't impose it on others. Your preferences shouldn't become a burden for others."
“Mom, I have no burden. She won’t affect us at all,” Xue Yanchen said.
It's fair to say that Chen Xiaoyue was completely delusional.
The men's words, though devoid of a single vulgarity, were like knives piercing Chen Xiaoyue's heart, causing her immense pain that almost made her lose her balance.
Seeing that she was still lingering, Xue's mother said, "I'm going to have a private talk with our future daughter-in-law later. Do you want to hear it too? I bet your parents don't know your real purpose for coming here. Why don't I call them and tell them that you want to break up the young couple, and have them come and take you away themselves?"
The Chen family did not know Chen Xiaoyue's true purpose for coming here. Chen Xiaoyue dared not let her parents know. Originally, she wanted to act first and tell her family later after she had won Xue Yanchen's heart, but now it seemed that there was no need.
After being repeatedly attacked by those people, her heart was already riddled with holes. Staying here would only subject her to more scorn and ridicule. So she decided to leave, turned around, and staggered out.
After the group saw off Chen Xiaoyue, this plague, the atmosphere in the room immediately became much calmer and warmer.
Luo Jingyan had just poured a cup of hot water for Grandma Qin, and then brought another cup to Mama Xue: "Auntie, have some water."
Mrs. Xue quickly accepted the gift with a smile: "We came here without telling you in advance, you won't blame us, will you?"
"How could that be? I'm very happy that you could come."
Seeing that Xue's mother's attitude was very good and that she had just protected her, Luo Jingyan assumed that she must be a mother-in-law who dotes on her daughter-in-law. Suddenly, she had no more worries about her and Xue Yanchen's future.
Fearing that Luo Jingyan might misunderstand Xue Yanchen and Chen Xiaoyue's relationship again, Xue's mother quickly explained, "That girl from the Chen family, when she was little, her family lived in the same courtyard as ours, but Yanchen liked to play with boys and never played with her. Not long after, we moved away. Her liking for Yanchen was entirely one-sided and had nothing to do with Yanchen."
Luo Jingyan smiled and said, "Auntie, I believe what you said, and I also believe in Yanchen."
"That's good. You two are really a perfect match. No wonder Yanchen doesn't like other girls. It turns out it was destined that we would meet."
"My mom is absolutely right, this is the destiny between Jingyan and me." Xue Yanchen looked at Luo Jingyan, his eyes seemingly filled with stars.
"Yanchen, I have good news for you. Your dad has been so happy these past few days, I don't know if it's because he found out you two are dating, but his decades-old ailment has actually improved."
"Really? That's great."
Luo Jingyan secretly wondered if it was because she had added spiritual spring water to those walnut and peanut cookies.
Mother Xue said to Luo Jingyan, "To be honest, I rushed here because I heard that the girl from the Chen family was coming here. I didn't have time to buy anything in Beijing to bring you over, so I bought some things at the supply and marketing cooperative here. We'll go over there later and buy you two sets of clothes."
Most of the things Xue's mother bought were food, as well as face cream, shampoo powder, and other products for girls.
Luo Jingyan said, "Auntie, I have clothes to wear, don't spend money. Yanchen already bought me some a few days ago."
“He bought it himself, but that doesn’t represent me. I’m finally going to be a mother-in-law, so you should listen to me. You can’t refuse anything your future mother-in-law gives you.”
Luo Jingyan felt too embarrassed to refuse, so she nodded in agreement.
Chen Xiaoyue returned to the Hu family home, seething with anger. As soon as she entered, she started packing her things to leave.
Du Yinan guessed that she must have run into a snag.
"Cousin, are you really leaving like this?"
"What else can I do but stay? I'm just a burden here, I might as well go back."
Du Yinan also wanted to return to Beijing, but she had already married someone here, so there was basically no possibility of her going back.
As soon as Chen Xiaoyue stepped into the yard with her suitcase, Aunt Hu blocked her way.
"Cousin, are you leaving already?"
"Yes, something came up at home and I have to go back quickly. I'll leave Yinan here, so please take good care of her."
Aunt Hu wouldn't let her leave easily. When Du Yinan, this relative from the city, came, she didn't bring them any nice things and just ate and stayed at her house for free. She wasn't going to do a losing business.
“Her cousin, look, Yinan is pregnant. You should at least come to see her. You can’t just say you care about her and do things for her.”
Chen Xiaoyue understood the meaning behind Aunt Hu's words. She took out ten yuan from her bag and gave it to Aunt Hu: "Buy Yinan something nice to eat."
Then, they left with their luggage.
As soon as she left, Hu's mother put the money in her own pocket. There was no question of her buying supplements for her daughter-in-law.
