Chapter 221 Chapter 221 Aunt Xu
Sun Xilai has always had opinions about Tang Sisi. Everyone saw the slap she gave her son just now, and Sun Xilai was no exception.
She came over and whispered, "Was that slap just now real?"
The slap was so strong that Yu Zhiguo's face was swollen. This was very different from the image that Tang Sisi showed to others, and Lin Yue was also shocked.
Sun Xilai saw Lin Yue nod and curled her lips and said, "She is really willing to do that. No wonder Captain Yu trusts her so much. I don't believe she would treat those kids badly!"
She looked at Tang Sisi from a distance, then leaned over to Lin Yue's ear and whispered, "They say she likes children and is gentle to them. Many children in our hospital like her, but I don't think that's the case. What mother would be so cruel to beat her own son and be so kind to other people's children? This is too fake. I don't believe it anyway!"
Lin Yue also looked back. Not to mention the slap that Tang Sisi gave the child, the tempers of her children were all very strange. If it happened in a few decades, it would probably be a typical psychological problem.
Sun Xilai's gossip continued unabated, and behind her, Aunt Xu slowly approached. This was the mother of Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang, and she lived next door to Tang Sisi.
Aunt Xu is not only not easy to mess with, but she also always protects Tang Sisi unconditionally, and no one can say a word more. Lin Yue quickly pulled Sun Xilai to tell her to stop talking.
Unfortunately, Sun Xilai didn't get her meaning at all and continued to talk non-stop: "Hey, don't be so cautious, we are just talking in private, I will never say anything nonsense outside!"
Aunt Xu sneered and said sarcastically, "What do you know? You just spread rumors behind people's backs all day long! Xiao Tang is such a good person, but his reputation has been ruined by gossips like you!"
Sun Xilai was startled and said unhappily, "You are so capable that you even eavesdropped!"
Aunt Xu said, "If you're afraid of others hearing it, then don't say it behind your back!"
Sun Xilai said unhappily: "Okay, okay, I won't argue with you, just take whatever you say!" Seeing that more and more people were looking this way, she pulled Lin Yue to change direction, a little further away from Aunt Xu.
She didn't think what she said was anything. Tang Sisi had just beaten her son, and everyone saw it. Just as Sun Xilai said, her attitude towards her biological son and stepchildren was very different. There were few people on the grassland who didn't talk about it. Sun Xilai thought it was just a few idle words, and she didn't take it seriously.
But Aunt Xu was not so easy to get rid of. She was not a person who talked much about reason on weekdays. She hadn't even started to show her abilities today, so there was no way she would let her go just like that.
"You feel guilty, don't you? I'm telling you, if I hear you gossiping behind my back again, I'll tear your mouth to pieces!"
Sun Xilai interrupted her: "You're not done yet, are you? Don't think I dare not do anything to you. I just feel sorry for you and don't want to bother with you. Don't be so arrogant!"
Several sisters-in-law nearby heard what Sun Xilai said and quickly advised, "Little grandson, you should also speak less and don't talk nonsense!" They shouted at Sun Xilai and winked at him. Sun Xilai seemed to think of something, snorted, turned his head away and stopped talking.
They were also at fault in this matter and shouldn't talk about others behind their backs. Lin Yue had a lot of words of advice that he wanted to say but he held them back.
However, given Sun Xilai's personality, Lin Yue was surprised that he could endure it and not quarrel with Aunt Xu. After all, Sun Xilai's temper was not to be feared by anyone, and he even dared to confront He Aini.
Aunt Xu was also pulled away and didn't say anything. Lin Yue thought that the matter was over, but when she turned around, she found that Aunt Xu's mental state was not right. She stared at Sun Xilai with a scary look in her eyes. She was mumbling something in her mouth, and her speed was very fast. However, because her voice was too low, Lin Yue didn't hear it at first.
The person holding her shook off Aunt Xu's arm and took two steps back. She didn't want to get involved in this matter, but in the end she couldn't bear it. She looked around and found Xu Zhijuan who was talking to someone not far away, and ran over to call for help.
Sun Xilai also saw Aunt Xu's appearance and her face turned very ugly. Lin Yue was a little out of the situation. It was just a few small quarrels just now. How could it be possible to stimulate someone like this? This must be considered mental disorder. She was thinking in her heart whether she should be sent to the hospital, and then she saw Xu Zhijuan hurried over.
Xu Zhijuan heard some of the talk on the way. Seeing Aunt Xu's expression, she was not panicked, but comforted her kindly: "Sister-in-law, she can't speak. There's no need to be angry with the young people!" She saw that the other party seemed not to hear her and ignored her at all, so she repeated this sentence loudly in her ear over and over again until Aunt Xu reacted and turned to look at her.
Aunt Xu was interrupted and turned her gaze to Xu Zhijuan, her eyes were blank, as if she was immersed in her own world. Xu Zhijuan frowned, turned around and said to someone, "Liu Cuicui, take your mother-in-law back to rest!"
A woman named Liu Cuicui was standing in the crowd. She had been watching the excitement, but when her name was called, she responded unhappily, tugged at Aunt Xu's clothes irritably, and dragged her home.
Xu Zhijuan thought of something and quickly reminded her: "Just obey her and don't provoke your mother-in-law!"
It was obviously not the first time that Liu Cuicui had seen her like this. She said impatiently, "Alright, alright, got it!" Then she turned to Aunt Xu and said, "Come home with me, quickly!"
Aunt Xu seemed to be deaf to what people were saying, and she ignored her daughter-in-law. Liu Cuicui turned around in annoyance, put her hands on her hips and started to curse.
She cursed so harshly that Aunt Xu did react a little, but she didn't seem angry. Instead, she looked very scared. She shrank her body as if she was about to cry, and she didn't let anyone get close to her.
Xu Zhijuan felt a little regretful for calling this guy over. She looked around the place and finally saw Tang Sisi at the other end of the place. She immediately called her over and whispered something to her. Tang Sisi nodded, walked over to hold Aunt Xu's arm and whispered a few words of advice.
Aunt Xu was originally very resistant to being approached by others, but as soon as Tang Sisi came, she seemed to have found her backbone. She followed Tang Sisi closely and obediently let herself be led away.
Sun Xilai had been looking at that direction with concern, but she couldn't go forward. Seeing this, she took two steps forward, trying to catch up, but was stopped by Xu Zhijuan.
"Come on, why are you so reckless? Why did you mess with her for no reason?"
Sun Xilai made a weak excuse: "We were just chatting, I didn't expect she could hear it and get so angry..."
"That's because you didn't know the situation! And you must have said something that irritated her. Fortunately, she is fine, otherwise you would regret it!" She whispered unhappily, "Okay, this is also a lesson for you, go to work!"
She glanced at the people who were talking to each other and said loudly, "Everyone, stop looking. It's just a few quarrels. It's not a big deal. Let's go!"
Everyone could see that something was wrong with Aunt Xu, but since Xu Zhijuan had said so, everyone had to give her some face and did not ask about it on the spot.
Sun Xilai walked forward and asked Xu Zhijuan nervously, "Auntie, how about I go with you to take a look?"
Xu Zhijuan sighed and said, "Okay, it doesn't look serious. Don't provoke her. With Xiao Tang here, nothing will happen!"
After Xu Zhijuan left, Zhou Aixiang dragged her three children over, patted Sun Xilai on the shoulder, and whispered, "You are so unlucky! Okay, don't think too much about it. When she gets better, she probably won't remember what happened today."
The more Lin Yue listened, the more he felt something was wrong: "What's going on? It seems to me that Aunt Xu is not in a good mood."
Sun Xilai didn't dare to speak casually. She whispered, "There are some things here that I can't explain clearly at the moment. I'll tell you slowly later!"
After work, Zhou Aixiang and Sun Xilai did not go home, but went to Lin Yue's house together.
Sun Xilai had something on her mind, so she wanted to talk to someone. She took the water from Lin Yue, drank several gulps, and then sighed, "I am so embarrassed today! Who would have thought that she was standing behind me? She treated me like this, as if I had done something against the law!"
Zhou Aixiang comforted her, "You can't be blamed for this. Everyone knows that she protects Tang Sisi like her lifeblood. She doesn't even care about her own son. Isn't it because of this that her daughter-in-law doesn't get along with her!"
Xiao Mushroom and Sisi had gone to play with Sun Hongjun and had not returned yet. There were only three adults and three little kids over one year old in the room, so they talked without too much scruples. Lin Yue made a cup of malted milk for each of the three kids and sat on the kang to listen to them talk.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that there was something wrong with Aunt Xu's condition, but Lin Yue had been here for so long and had never heard that she had any mental problems.
Zhou Aixiang followed Lin Yue to his home just to gossip. She explained to Lin Yue, "You haven't been here long, so you don't know what's going on here. Aunt Xu is a bit hot-tempered, but there are many people in the family compound who are hotter than her. People don't argue with her, but they are just giving in to her."
Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang had a wife and a daughter. His daughter went missing a few years ago. His wife was already ill and could not bear the blow. Her condition became serious and she passed away.
Aunt Xu thought that this happened because she had not taken good care of her child. She became a little mentally ill and often imagined that her son blamed her and that her deceased daughter-in-law was blaming her in the underworld.
Seeing her getting more and more confused, thanks to Tang Sisi's enlightenment, she slowly came out of her fantasy. However, since then, she seemed to have forgotten about the former daughter-in-law and granddaughter, and poured all her feelings into Tang Sisi, being very kind to her. Knowing that many people disliked her, she often stood up for her.
At first, everyone was accommodating to her, but later, people came and went in the family compound, and every year new military families moved in. There were always some unknown people, and the quarrels were severe. Aunt Xu's mental state began to become abnormal again. In order to avoid disputes, the house next to Tang Sisi was left empty and no one lived there anymore.
This is also a pitiful person. Lin Yue knew that Tang Sisi must have used hypnosis, otherwise Aunt Xu's mental problems would not be so easily controlled. Because of this incident, her impression of Tang Sisi has improved a little. She thought that if she had not suspected the relationship between her and "Zhang Yuhui", she would not be so wary of her.
Sun Xilai sighed, "The family members who moved in earlier all knew about this. They usually tolerated Aunt Xu as much as possible. Even if they encountered a little friction in life, they would not irritate her. But she protects Tang Sisi too much. When it comes to Tang Sisi, she becomes irrational and easily gets sick."
This is also the reason why she dislikes Tang Sisi so much. She always feels that Tang Sisi is a little weird. Whoever gets close to her will be biased towards her as if he has lost his mind.
But she still felt somewhat guilty. She probably knew that she was too impulsive at the time and must have irritated the other party.
Lin Yue was a little puzzled. "How did that child disappear? Why was he never found?"
Zhou Aixiang shook her head. "No. Some people said the child might have secretly run to the back hill and was taken away by some animal."
This is not impossible. There are many wolves in the mountains. She also remembered the tiger she encountered in the mountains last year and the bear killed by the soldiers. Although the army patrols frequently, there are too many wild animals in the mountains. If a child goes into the back mountain alone, he may encounter danger.
