After meeting Lu Shuqi last time, Yu Yin didn't pay much attention to the subsequent developments.
Uncle Jiang went to the old factory to take a look and check out the actual situation.
"Yu Yin, I didn't expect you to buy the old factory building of the parts factory. This site covers a large area and there are not many residential areas around it, which gives it a great advantage in terms of design."
"This land covers more than ten acres, and the surrounding area is relatively remote."
The group walked around the factory area, carefully examining it, and Jiang Qiao made up his mind. If this factory were built according to Yu Yin's concept, it would definitely be a pioneering achievement, a pioneering step in the history of architecture regarding environmental awareness.
"Alright, that's enough for today. Let's go back and work on a first draft. We'll need to discuss and explore the other details gradually."
"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Jiang and your colleagues. I hope we can build a new factory that leads the industry."
"Yes, it will definitely happen. With your example, other factories can follow suit and gradually instill environmental awareness in everyone's minds. It will spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, creating a chain reaction."
Jiang Qiao, having studied abroad for several years, generally agrees with Western environmental awareness and concepts. However, the environment and realities in China make it difficult for him to convey these ideas. Now, with Yu Yin's example, things will gradually improve.
Everyone left the old factory, and all that was left was to wait.
The architectural drawings haven't been completed yet, so factory construction can't start, and some of the subsequent steps can't proceed. Yu Yin can finally get a few days of rest.
"Shuqi moved; he moved to a rented house near his workplace."
"Oh, you moved so quickly? I thought it would take a while."
Yu Yin didn't expect Lu Shuqi to act so quickly this time. It had only been a few days since their last meeting, and she had already rented a house and moved in. It seemed that she really couldn't stand it anymore.
"Did you know he was moving out?"
"Yes, I went to see him a few days ago to ask about the sausage filling machine. He had dark circles under his eyes and looked very tired, so I casually asked him why. He said that he and Song Wei had discussed it and wanted to move out so that it would be more convenient for him to go to work."
"I don't know what's wrong with my third aunt. She was fine before, but ever since Shuqi's family had a daughter, she's become a bit neurotic. It's a good choice for Shuqi to move out, otherwise the constant arguing is bad for both the adults and the child."
Yu Yin and Lu Shurui never expected that the person they had talked to the night before would come to their door crying the next day.
"Third Aunt is here. Have you eaten?"
Today was a day off, and Yu Yin didn't expect Aunt Lu to come over so early in the morning. They had just finished eating and hadn't even cleared the table yet.
"I'm done eating, I'm done eating. I came here to talk to you and Grandpa and Grandma about something."
Aunt Lu's voice was a little hoarse, and her eyes were red. I don't know if it was because she had been crying for a long time or what, but she looked listless.
"Come in and tell me what's wrong."
Grandma Lu knew what Aunt Lu was talking about when she heard what she said. Ping An and the others were still alive; these things couldn't be said in front of the younger generation.
Yu Yin and Lu Shurui looked at each other and helplessly followed inside. They wondered how long their aunt was going to make a scene. Wouldn't it be better for the family to live happily together?
Although An'an and Kuai Kuai were very curious about what their Third Grandma was going to say, they also knew that they would be punished if they tried to eavesdrop, so they had no choice but to suppress their curiosity and do their own thing.
"What on earth is it that made you come to see these two old men with such a long face so early in the morning?"
Grandma Lu's tone was very unpleasant. She and her husband were both over 80 and approaching 90, and their sons had all retired and were now grandparents themselves. Yet, she was crying and making a scene in front of her parents and the younger generation. What was she trying to do?
“Mom and Dad, I have no choice. Lu Shuqi is such a heartless ingrate. He forgot his mother after marrying a wife. He actually moved out with his wife and child, leaving me and his father behind. How are we supposed to live? We only have one son, and he even had a granddaughter. We're going to have no descendants.”
Aunt Lu was heartbroken. Her precious son, whom she cherished, had abandoned his parents for another woman, which she could not accept.
Yu Yin couldn't understand her third aunt's thoughts. Listening to her talk, it sounded like Song Wei wasn't Shu Qi's lawfully wedded wife, but rather some shady wild woman. She really didn't understand. Was her third aunt going through menopause?
"What are you saying? How did Shuqi become an ingrate, forgetting his mother after getting married? Isn't this all for work? The child is so young, how can I breastfeed him if we don't find a place to live nearby?"
"If you can't breastfeed, just feed them formula. Many babies in the past survived on rice water when they didn't have breast milk, didn't they?"
Aunt Lu's words stunned the four people in the room, their mouths agape for a long time.
Is this something a grandmother should say? Even if she doesn't like her granddaughter, she's still Lu Shuqi's biological child. The baby is only a few months old. She doesn't want her to drink breast milk and wants to eat rice porridge. Doesn't that sound a bit malicious?
"Is that human language? Why is such a small baby being fed rice gruel instead of breast milk? Do you want her to die? What's wrong with your granddaughter? Isn't she Shuqi's child too? Do you have a fortune and insist on having a grandson to inherit it?"
Grandma Lu's words revealed Yu Yin's thoughts. It seemed as if Aunt Lu didn't want her granddaughter to grow up. Although such a guess was a bit excessive, that was the general feeling.
"You can say these things here, but don't let Shuqi and Song Wei know. Otherwise, you and your son will be finished. Shuqi is your son, but that child is also his daughter, with his blood in her veins."
“I didn’t think that way. I just wanted a grandson. Now I’ve lost my grandson and my son. How can I not be heartbroken? The son I raised with my own hands has now left us and abandoned us so easily.”
Aunt Lu knew that the national policy was tight now and it was impossible to have a second child, but she felt uncomfortable whenever she saw her granddaughter. She couldn't control herself. She just didn't expect Shuqi to leave so suddenly and without any regrets.
"What do you mean by abandoning them? They've just gone to work, it's not like they're never coming back. Shuqi used to be away for years when she went to the countryside, and I never saw you like this. Now they're not too far away, so if you want to, just take a bus and go see them. If they have a holiday, just go back and stay for a night. What's so unacceptable about that?"
“That’s different. He was sent to the countryside when he was working there, there was nothing he could do. Now he’s left with his wife and children, it’s different. I just feel like I’ve been abandoned.”
Aunt Lu was completely stuck in her own thoughts and couldn't seem to get out of it. Yu Yin looked at her exhausted grandparents and didn't know what else to do, so she asked Lu Shurui to call Uncle Lu and ask him to come and resolve the situation.
Finally, Aunt Lu was taken away by Uncle Lu, and they breathed a sigh of relief.
Yu Yin silently warned herself that she could not treat her four children like this in the future; such love was too terrible!
