Aunt Chen, who was standing by, was originally chattering about other things, but when she heard the woman mention Mei Fang, she suddenly changed the subject and unknowingly turned the topic completely to Mei Fang.
She put her hands on her hips and said indignantly:
"That selfish, cruel Mei Fang! Anyone who gets involved with her will be in big trouble!"
"I wanted to raise her well from the beginning, but she was bad from the root. Her biological parents were also selfish and cruel. I heard they were notorious shrews. They were always making a fuss, crying, making a fuss, and even threatening to hang themselves. They made the whole family restless and the neighbors uneasy.
If I hadn't listened to you, I would either be pissed off to death or regret it to death."
The woman responded to the old lady's words, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced:
Thank God, Aunt Chen finally stopped pestering Lu Yu, otherwise his ears would have been covered with calluses!
On the way home, Lu Yu drove the car skillfully and patiently answered the questions raised by Qin Wan.
Qin Wan blinked her beautiful big eyes and asked curiously:
"Could the Aunt Liu I met today be Mei Fang's adoptive mother, Liu Xing?"
Lu Yu nodded, a hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly:
"Yes, it's Aunt Liu. I suffered a lot when I was a child. I was often punished by my mother and not allowed to eat for the smallest things.
Fortunately, Aunt Liu is kind-hearted. Every time she learns that I have been punished, she will secretly send me all kinds of delicious food so that I won’t go hungry.
So for me, Aunt Liu has always been my benefactor."
Qin Wan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this:
"It seems that Aunt Liu is indeed a good person." Then he added thoughtfully:
"But then again, it's not easy for Aunt Liu either."
At this time, Aunt Zhang, who was sitting in the back row, couldn't help but interrupt and make a comment:
"This girl Liu must have done something bad in her past life, otherwise how could she have met a man like Mei He?"
"Who says it isn't true? That girl Liu has to live in the same room with her enemy all day long, and still have to put on a brave face. How miserable her life must be! I feel so sorry for her just thinking about it."
Aunt Yu was usually sad because her only daughter ignored her, but now after hearing about Aunt Liu's situation, she felt sympathy for her.
Qin Wan looked at the obvious sympathy on Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yu's faces, and her heart was moved. She said softly:
"When I have some free time someday, I'll definitely go visit them. If they're really having a hard time and can't go on living, I'll just bring them here to live."
At this moment, Lu Yu, who was concentrating on driving in front, shook his head slightly after hearing this, and said with a smile:
"I'm telling you, don't waste your time worrying about it. How could someone as smart and capable as Aunt Liu possibly not be able to make ends meet? To be honest, I bet none of you noticed the teacup we used today, did you? I'm telling you, that teacup might be worth hundreds of dollars. We're nowhere near as good as that."
Aunt Yu and Aunt Zhang were both shocked when they heard this. After looking at each other, they couldn't help but smack their lips and exclaimed:
"Oh my goodness, it's actually so valuable!"
Qin Wan also echoed with surprise:
"Aunt Liu is truly amazing! Even in such a difficult situation, she's still able to live so comfortably. Not everyone can do that."
Lu Yu nodded slightly and responded:
"Yes, that's true. Aunt Liu is very strong and shrewd, otherwise she would have been killed over the past twenty years. But she not only saved her life, but also preserved the evidence, and she lives comfortably in the Mei family. I think she should have prepared money for her retirement a long time ago."
Qin Wan, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yu sat together, with expressions of deep emotion on their faces.
They were talking among themselves about some recent events, sighing from time to time.
Time passed quietly. After a long while, Aunt Yu suddenly broke the silence and asked:
"Tell me, how could someone as sensible as Sister Liu raise a child as clueless as Mei Fang? This is truly puzzling!"
Qin Wan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and replied:
"I think that during the time they were in that small courtyard, Aunt Liu never mentioned anything about Mei Fang at all. From my perspective, her feelings for Mei Fang probably weren't that deep."
Hearing this, Aunt Zhang nodded thoughtfully, and then said:
"Hmm... I'm thinking, maybe Sister Liu has already made this up. She probably knew long ago that sooner or later, she would have a complete break with the Mei family. If that's the case, then it's better not to invest too much emotion from the beginning, so as to avoid even more heartbreak when they do break up."
After saying that, she couldn't help but shook her head, seeming to feel quite helpless about the situation.
Qin Wan pondered in his heart, always feeling that there was something wrong with Aunt Liu's attitude towards Mei Fang, as if she was deliberately praising her, but in fact it was a sinister tactic - flattery!
This behavior once made Qin Wan feel very surprised and puzzled. Now thinking about it, it should be as Aunt Zhang said, Aunt Mei had long been prepared to sever ties with the Mei family.
In order to obtain evidence of the Mei family's crimes, Qin Wan had secretly visited the Mei family several times in the dead of night. After secretly observing, she was surprised to find that Mei Fang was quite obedient to what Aunt Liu said, almost obeying her every word.
Now, Mei Fang has been imprisoned for committing a crime and has lost her freedom, and Aunt Liu has also left the Mei family.
Qin Wan felt that there was no need for him to worry about Aunt Liu's attitude towards Mei Fang.
Lu Yu drove the car steadily on the road, at a fast and steady speed.
Not long after, just over twenty minutes later, they arrived safely at the military family compound.
As the car slowly passed the gate of the family compound, Aunt Yu, who was sitting beside them, suddenly said:
"Oh my, now it's finally all over! Without Mei Fang, that troublemaker all the time, I don't have to worry about anyone competing with me for my child anymore! Humph, I've decided that from today on, I'm going to walk to this gate seven or eight times a day to give Mei Fang a good stab. Who told her to be so shameless?"
As soon as these words were spoken, several people in the car couldn't help laughing out loud. Everyone covered their mouths and laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed and happy.
A few people were laughing when they suddenly heard someone outside the car shouting:
"Oh, you're finally back."
