At the same time, in the Lin family yard.
He Dagang and He Xiaoyue were sitting face to face, and neither of them took the initiative to speak.
The Lin family members all left tactfully.
Leave space for this father and daughter.
In the end, it was He Dagang who spoke first.
He looked at Lin Shouxi who was hugging Xiao Yunni's thigh at the door and asked He Xiaoyue.
"How old is the child today?
What’s your name?
"He's two years old, and his name is Lin Shouxi."
He Dagang actually had a lot of questions he wanted to ask, but he didn't know where to start.
Just seeing He Xiaoyue’s attitude was so cold.
It was like being poured with a bucket of cold water, and all the words I wanted to say were reduced to just two simple sentences.
"Oh, you're two years old, that's great.
I didn’t expect that I’m already a grandfather. I really am getting old! "
Hearing this, He Xiaoyue subconsciously glanced at He Dagang. Her eyes happened to sweep across the other's graying temples, and she couldn't help but pursed her lips.
It's rare to receive a sentence.
"You're not old. Xiaoming hasn't even gotten married yet."
When He Xiaoming was mentioned, He Dagang's expression relaxed a little.
He asked He Xiaoyue tentatively.
"Oh right, speaking of Xiaoming, I suddenly remembered.
Xiaoming is not young anymore, and his mother is currently looking for a partner for him.
If it's settled, I'll let you know so you can go back and take a look?"
Upon hearing about Zhu Cuilian and her son, He Xiaoyue's expression, which had just been somewhat moved, instantly turned cold, and her tone returned to its previous indifference.
"Let's talk about it later."
He Dagang was a little disappointed when he heard this.
He knew that this was He Xiaoyue's tactful rejection.
But he had no right to ask He Xiaoyue to go back.
Can't you just beat them when they don't listen like you did before?
And since he saw Zhu Cuilian's true face, was He Xiaoyue's disobedience really his fault?
Now it seems that is not entirely true.
He knew that He Xiaoyue must still be resentful of her family, so he could only persuade her:
"Xiaoyue, Dad did do some things wrong in the past.
But now Dad knows and sees clearly.
We are a family after all.
There is no overnight hatred among family members..."
Seeing that He Dagang was about to continue his long speech, He Xiaoyue interrupted him.
“I’m married and now I’m a member of the Lin family.
Didn’t you come here last time to ask for money for selling my body?”
Hearing this, He Dagang's face was a little embarrassed, but he hurriedly explained:
"What's the money from selling yourself?
It's just the normal betrothal money.
Who wouldn’t want this for their wedding?
I admit that we asked for a little more at the time.
But at that time I really had no choice.
All the money in the house was stolen and has not been recovered yet.
We barely had enough to eat.
Plus, Xiaoming has to go to school and pay tuition.
I had no choice but to come to the Lin family to ask for the betrothal gift.
I just want to get through this difficult time first."
He Xiaoyue believed half of what he said.
After all, it was she who took the He family's money.
I took almost all of it.
It’s normal that the He family can’t make ends meet.
But she believed that even if she did not take the He family's money, He Dagang would still be instigated by Zhu Cuilian to ask for a sky-high betrothal gift from the Lin family.
So she just nodded lightly to He Dagang's explanation.
“I knew it, so I didn’t say anything at the time.
There's nothing much to say now.
Besides, I am married now, and the He family’s affairs have nothing to do with me.”
After being treated coldly again and again, even though He Dagang felt guilty towards his daughter He Xiaoyue, he became angry at this moment.
"Xiaoyue, do you have to be so heartless?
After all, I am your biological father.
Are you trying to sever the father-daughter relationship with me?"
"If I really wanted to sever our father-daughter relationship, I wouldn't call you dad anymore.
They may even chase you away as soon as you arrive.
I just feel that there is no need to continue maintaining the little father-daughter relationship between us.
Now you have your life, a wife, a son, and even a stepdaughter, He Xiaoxiao, to please you.
I'm not around to bother you.
Shouldn't you be more satisfied?
And I have my own family and life.
As long as we are well, that's enough.
Forcing a meeting will only remind us of past unpleasantness, so why bother?
But don't worry, when you get old, I will not refuse to pay you the pension you deserve.
As for the rest, I can only say sorry.
You shouldn't ask too much of me.
After all, you are the one who caused this situation.”
After saying this, He Xiaoyue prepared to get up and leave. She thought she had said everything she needed to say.
As for whether He Dagang can listen to it, that is none of his business.
The fact that she could sit here and talk to He Dagang for so long was already a courtesy to the original owner.
But He Dagang obviously didn't listen.
He didn't expect that after he took the initiative to lower his attitude and seek peace with He Xiaoyue, he would get such a result.
This was a little hard for him to accept for a while.
Just when he was about to call out to He Xiaoyue, Zhu Cuilian came over.
As soon as he arrived, he became hysterical towards He Dagang.
"Well, you He Dagang, you actually came to find this damn girl behind my back again!
Tell me, did you secretly give her money again?"
"What are you talking about? Haven't we already given you all the money at home?
Where do I get the money?
How could he possibly give money to Xiaoyue?
And I already said it, the last time was because Xiaoyue got married.
We received so much betrothal gifts, so I only gave 20 yuan as dowry.
