When Mrs. Liu heard Li Aimin say this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across her face. "My dear, look at what you said. I told you before that it was just when the children were quarreling and they were angry. How can you still take it seriously?"
Then, she turned to face the crowd, "We all have quarrels, right? Angry words shouldn't be taken seriously."
When everyone heard what she said, they all nodded in agreement, thinking it made sense.
Li Aimin didn't know what to say to her. He just squatted on the ground and sighed continuously.
Seeing that her words had worked, Mrs. Liu continued, "You don't know, because of the quarrel between the two children, our old man was so angry that he became sick. He just went to see a doctor this morning, and we are here now!"
While she was speaking, she pulled Old Man Xu's arm, motioning him to speak a few words as well.
Old Man Xu was pulled by Mrs. Liu, and he recalled what his wife said to him before they came, and spoke slowly.
"My dear, please don't be angry."
Just after saying two sentences, he started coughing, "Cough cough."
"Xu Shan also knows he was wrong, ever since Sanni came home."
Having said that, he covered his mouth and started coughing again.
Looking at him like that, Li Mingxi wanted him to stop talking.
Old Man Xu was still talking on the side, "Ahem, he has been having trouble eating and sleeping. He was supposed to come along today."
"I told his mother, ahem, he didn't look well, and I thought Sanni would be angry again if she saw him, so I didn't let him follow."
Old man Xu stumbled over what he wanted to say and coughed countless times in between.
Mrs. Liu, who was beside her, saw that Old Man Xu was coughing all the time, so she hurried forward to help him calm down. She didn't know if he was pretending.
While she was helping Old Man Xu calm down, she kept nagging him, "Slow down, slow down, why are you coughing again? Oh, I told you I could handle it myself, but you insisted on following me. You were already sick! I don't know if your illness is serious if you follow me here!"
When Old Man Xu was coughing just now, everyone who was listening was worried about him, fearing that the old man would cough to death accidentally.
Originally, they guessed that Sanni's in-laws were up to no good, so they drove Sanni back.
Now after hearing what Mrs. Liu said, everyone had other guesses in their minds.
I wonder if Sanni’s father-in-law’s health has always been like this, or if he got angry with Sanni and her husband?
Everyone unanimously thought it was because of the latter.
In their opinion, even if the person is in poor health, he can't just keep coughing and unable to finish his words, right?
Unless he just got angry, and besides, didn’t the old woman say that this man was sick? It goes without saying that he must have been angry!
Thinking of this, several older people in the crowd spoke to Li Aimin.
"Ai Min, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're taking it to heart just because the couple had a fight. So, are you really going to keep your daughter from going back to her husband's house for the rest of her life?"
The other wife agreed, "That's right, Aimin, that's not how you teach your children. Otherwise, they'll all become like your Sanni, running back home when they get angry. What will we do then?"
Li Mingxi felt unhappy after listening to his wife's words. Some elderly people always rely on their age and think they are qualified to interfere in other people's affairs.
In fact, such people are the most annoying. They can't even manage their own family affairs, so how can they have the qualifications to manage other people's family affairs?
Mrs. Liu stood aside, watching the old men and women persuading Li Aimin, with a smile on her face.
No matter what, as long as someone believes it, it will not be in vain for the efforts of her and the old man before.
Now this group of people are on her side, and later she will take the opportunity to express her family's predicament.
At that time, Li Aimin would definitely have to express his opinion for the sake of face.
Li Aimin was indeed listening to the lecturing and accusations of the people around him, just as Liu Pozi thought.
He lowered his head even lower, and he even felt that maybe he really shouldn't care about Sanni's affairs.
Was I wrong this time?
Niu Cuihua was so annoyed when she saw the cowardly look on the third child, Li Aimin.
People were almost pointing fingers at him, but he didn't say a word.
Besides, what do these people have to do with their own affairs? What is there for them to do?
She glanced at the elderly people who had come forward to criticize Li Aimin and said, "What does this have to do with your family? Besides, you can't even take care of your own children, so what are you talking about us?"
The old people smiled awkwardly after hearing what Niu Cuihua said.
Niu Cuihua looked at their reaction and snorted coldly.
Then she spoke to Mrs. Liu.
"It's okay to let Sanni go back, but you have to ask Xu Shan to come pick her up. Otherwise, what's the point of us, as parents, picking her up for him?"
Mrs. Liu said with an embarrassed look on her face, "Auntie, look, didn't Xu Shan's father just say that Xu Shan is not in good condition now, how can we let him come to pick him up!"
There were people in the crowd who were older than Niu Cuihua. They couldn't bear to see Niu Cuihua making things difficult for others, so they started to criticize her.
"Cuihua, look at what you're saying. Everyone's already said that the child is in a bad mood, so why are you still forcing her? Besides, it's Sanni's husband who came to pick her up, so what? Her parents-in-law can come and it will be fine!"
"That's right, auntie, look, we've been talking for so long, why haven't we seen Sanni? Isn't Sanni at home?"
As Mrs. Liu spoke, she looked around, searching for Sanni in the crowd.
The onlookers saw her like this and knew that she was looking for Sanni.
Someone kind-heartedly said, "Sanni didn't come here, she's at home!"
Mrs. Liu didn't know what the man meant, so she continued his words and asked, "Why didn't I see her? We've been here for a while, why hasn't she come out yet? Is she lying down?"
As she spoke, her eyes looked towards the rooms behind Niu Cuihua.
Niu Cuihua looked at her with cold eyes.
What is this person looking at? There is nothing to look at. Besides, their family has split up a long time ago, so what is he looking at here?
Niu Cuihua was very annoyed when she saw her shifty look.
She only snorted coldly and said faintly, "San Nicole is not here, she is at her home!"
Li Aimin looked at Niu Cuihua's expression and knew that his mother was angry, so he spoke quickly.
"That's right, in-laws, Sanni is at our house, not here!"
After a pause, he spoke again, "Come on, I'll take you home to find Sanni!"
After saying this, he stood up and was about to lead the people out.
If Liu Pozi didn't understand what the man meant just now, then after listening to the story of Li Aimin and Niu Cuihua, mother and son, there was nothing she didn't understand.
After all this time, I realized this is not Sanni’s home at all!
No wonder she had been there for such a long time but Sanni didn’t come out.
She had thought this man was very rich before! Who knew that this Sanni actually lied to her!
