Chapter 228 Knowing the Mistake
Wang Guilan forcibly detained Pang Xiujuan, apologized to Ye Beixiu and Zhang Juexia, and made verbal promises before letting her go.
Wang Guilan looked at Pang Xiujuan's background and said with dismay, "She and the third brother are both hopeless. Juexia, Beixiu, you should just live your lives well. As long as I live, she will not be allowed to come here and cause trouble again."
Wang Guilan glanced at Ye Beixiu deliberately, "Your life is getting better and better now. As a man, don't be indecisive. Your mother is wrong. You should say what you should say and refuse what you should refuse. Otherwise, over time, it will hurt Jue Xia's heart."
Ye Beixiu nodded firmly. "Grandma, I know I was wrong. When I was in school, our teacher told us to put filial piety first. I was confused. I will never do that again."
Wang Guilan felt distressed when she saw Ye Beixiu. She had watched him grow up, and she knew best what he wanted most.
But the mother is not smart, what can she, the wet nurse, do?
There was a piece of cloth in the backyard that no one could identify, so Liu Jinhua asked Li Yulan to call Zhang Juexia.
Zhang Juexia heard someone shouting, said something to Wang Guilan, and ran to the backyard without paying any attention to Ye Beixiu.
Wang Guilan pointed and said, "See, she's mad at you already. Your grandfather and I have always thought you were a sensible child, so we didn't lecture you much. Now that you've established your own family, it's best to talk to your mother and ask her to stop interfering in your affairs."
"Grandma, you know my mother's temper. I've told her countless times that she has to change!"
"You're just too soft-hearted. As long as your grandfather and I are still alive, you should stay out of your uncle's family affairs. Living your own life is more important than anything else.
Your grandfather and I did so many good deeds to get such a good granddaughter-in-law.
Don’t let her suffer any injustice.”
"Grandma, I understand."
After Wang Guilan left, Ye Beixiu hesitated whether to go to the backyard, but finally went up the mountain.
Ye Beixiu stayed with Liu Wanfeng until dark and still refused to leave.
Liu Wanfeng urged him several times, but Ye Beixiu showed no intention of leaving.
Wen Shi saw through the trick and winked at Liu Wanfeng, "I'm going to make something to eat. I just saved a jar of wine. You can have a couple of drinks with your brother Bei Xiu."
Liu Wanfeng finally noticed that Ye Beixiu was in a bad mood, "Grandma, go and do it. I'll help you after I finish feeding the chickens."
Wen was quick and agile and quickly made two side dishes. Ye Beixiu was pulled by Liu Wanfeng to sit at the table in the yard and started drinking.
Ye Beixiu can't hold his liquor and rarely drinks on weekdays.
But today he quietly picked up the wine jar, filled a large bowl with it, and drank it in one big gulp.
Liu Wanfeng couldn't stop him even if he wanted to.
Wen picked up the wine jar again and poured a bowl for Ye Beixiu. Liu Wanfeng asked carefully, "Granny, is it okay for Brother Beixiu to drink like this?"
"Your brother Bei Xiu is obviously worried. Let him drink something to relieve his worries, and he will be fine."
"He's just a dull guy..."
Before Liu Wanfeng could finish his words of disdain, Ye Beixiu started talking to himself, "Who said I'm a taciturn person? I'm a talkative person. Brother Wanfeng, do you remember when we were hunting together? You said you envied me for having a mother at home, and asked me to be filial to her."
"I said it, how could I forget it!" Liu Wanfeng picked up the bowl and took a sip of wine.
"But I treat her well, but she is not satisfied. I don't want this mother anymore."
“How can…?”
Wen pulled Liu Wanfeng and signaled him not to speak, letting Ye Beixiu speak.
"I've been married for a while now, and she's been acting up. I've always thought, she's my mother, and I have to respect her.
But she is still not satisfied. She treats my wife badly and makes her angry. Tell me, can I not want this mother anymore?
Wanfeng, why is my life so bad? I wish my mother was my aunt.
She loves me, my wife, and my grandmother. They are all good, so why is my mother not good?
Wanfeng, can you tell me why?
Wanfeng, you don’t know, when I was little, I especially wanted my mother to hug me. Now that I grow up, I hope she can praise me.
Now, I especially hope that she stays out of trouble and treats my wife well."
Wen looked at Ye Beixiu distressedly from the side, "How much grievances does this child have to hold back every day? Have you ever seen his mother?"
Liu Wanfeng shook his head. "Brother Bei Xiu rarely talks about his mother, but I can sense that he particularly wants his mother to treat him well."
"You are such a poor child. If your mother were here, she would be happy to see you like this."
"I'm already very content as long as my grandmother treats me well. Bei Xiu's mother is still alive, but he doesn't have any maternal love. Just now, from what he said, his mother even caused him trouble."
"Silly child, who doesn't want his mother to treat him well?
It's such a pity that such a good child has a mother who is so clueless and causes trouble for the child!"
Liu Wanfeng shook his head doubtfully, "Maybe Bei Xiu's mother is an outlier."
"Don't talk nonsense, kid!"
"I just said that because I saw he was drunk. Grandma, I'll take him down the mountain so his wife won't be anxious waiting at home."
"Then hurry up. Go home and have a good talk with his wife. He's such a good kid. Don't let such a small thing cause estrangement between them."
After Zhang Juexia finished his work in the workshop, he went home. Seeing that Ye Beixiu had not returned home, he was too lazy to wait for him. He simply ate something, washed up, and went to bed.
Liu Wanfeng carried the drunk Ye Beixiu down the mountain and came to Ye Beixiu's house. Seeing that the door was closed, he knocked on it.
Ye Beixiu was still talking nonsense, "I knew my mother wouldn't hold the door open for me. Let's go find my wife. She will hold the door open for me."
Zhang Juexia was sleeping soundly. When he heard someone knocking on the door, he sat up.
Dahei and Xiaohuang also shouted.
Liu Wanfeng heard the dog barking and shouted inside again, "Sister-in-law, I am Liu Wanfeng. Brother Bei Xiu drank too much, and I brought him back."
Zhang Juexia put on his clothes, opened the door, and together with Liu Wanfeng helped Ye Beixiu in.
Liu Wanfeng explained to Zhang Juexia embarrassedly, "My grandma saw that Bei Xiu was in a bad mood, so she invited him to have dinner. But who knew that Bei Xiu could not drink much and got drunk after just one bowl of wine."
Zhang Juexia just listened without saying anything.
Liu Wanfeng suddenly felt depressed, "Sister-in-law, nothing else, I'll go back first."
After sending Liu Wanfeng away, Ye Beixiu struggled to stand up, hugged Zhang Juexia from behind, and leaned against her and acted coquettishly, "My dear, I was wrong. I will never let you suffer any grievances in the future."
