Chapter 4: The mother-in-law with bad intentions



Ruan Suhe stood there silently with her mouth wide open shouting, but no sound came out.

She was only mad for a dozen seconds before she calmed herself down, dragged her injured leg, and walked as fast as she could toward the door, pulled out the bolt of the large wooden stick that locked the door, and pulled it open.

With the dim light from the eaves in the yard, what came into view was the large scar on Lu Zhengxiang's right cheek near the ear, which looked a little scary at first glance.

But if you look closely, apart from the ugly scar next to his ear, he still has a different kind of handsomeness.

Considering that the original owner and this old friend, with whom he only spent a few days together every year, were essentially strangers, he imitated the original owner's slightly cold tone of voice.

"Come into the house first. The two children have just fallen asleep." She consciously prepared to take the big package from Lu Zhengxiang.

"No, I'll carry it myself. It's too heavy for you to carry."

Seeing that the original owner now weighed nearly 200 pounds, Lu Zhengxiang felt a little disgusted. He calmly retracted his hand and moved her away from the package in his hand.

Ruan Suhe felt that he was asking for trouble, so he withdrew his hand awkwardly, turned around and slowly moved back to the house, silently complaining in his heart.

...

...

[I wish you could carry it yourself, that's just what I want! ]

Lu Zhengxiang locked the door at the back and walked into the room with a chill in his body, lifting the curtain.

"Hey, what's wrong with your leg?"

"Well, I accidentally fell."

When she answered, her expression was a little embarrassed. She couldn't say that the original owner fell because he was greedy and went up the mountain to pick mushrooms.

"Well, you still have to be careful about safety."

......

Ruan Suhe really didn't know how to respond, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became deadly silent.

"By the way, the original plan was to stay in a guesthouse in the county for one night, and we met an old teammate and happened to come back together." Lu Zhengxiang took the lead in breaking the awkwardness, his tone somewhat cold.

"Haha, I'm glad you're back." She nodded awkwardly.

The two sentences were finished dryly, and there was no other topic.

Lu Zhengxiang raised his eyes to look at the two little kids sleeping on the kang, and a little more tenderness appeared in his originally cold eyes.

"It's quite late. I'll clean up quickly and we'll rest first." He turned around and spoke to her but his tone was still cold and without any warmth.

Ruan Suhe's heart skipped a beat, and all sorts of scenes appeared in her mind.

"Shall we... take a break first?"

Does this mean that they are going to sleep together? Thinking of this, her eyes widened a lot, and she opened her mouth but didn't know where to start.

Lu Zhengxiang seemed to know her current predicament, and spoke in a more relaxed tone: "I'll sleep on the floor, don't worry."

These words touched her heart, and she nodded eagerly.

"good."

She looks quite calm on the surface, but in fact she is deeply moved. This husband she found for free is not bad looking except that his tone of voice is a little cold when he speaks to her. He is also very sensible in doing things. As for whether he can be a support for her in the future, she still needs to observe him more.

In order to avoid the situation where the two of them had nothing to talk about again, she took the opportunity when Lu Zhengxiang went out to wash up and dived into the bed and pretended to sleep.

Maybe he was really tired. Ruan Suhe fell asleep within two minutes of pretending to sleep. She didn't even know when he finished washing up or when he came into the room.

"Bang bang bang, bang bang bang, open the door! Open the door quickly! Tiedan's mother!"

The family of four who were still asleep were all woken up at this time. Ruan Suhe wanted to get upstairs to open the door.

"Your legs are inconvenient, I'll go."

After Lu Zhengxiang finished speaking, he got up, put on his clothes quickly, lifted the curtain and went out to open the door.

As soon as the two little ones opened their sleepy eyes, they saw his back as he walked out of the room.

"It looks like daddy." Ruoruo mumbled in her cute little baby voice.

"This damned bastard, are you secretly abusing my grandson again? If you get louder, I don't believe that I can't open this door today."

Before Ruan Suhe could speak to confirm Ruoruo's guess, a rude roar from a middle-aged woman was heard outside the door.

With a creak, the door opened.

"You fat guy, why did you come to open the door just now? Are you..." He swallowed the words back halfway through: "Hehe, Zhengxiang is here? When did you come back? Why didn't you page us?"

When Ruan Suhe heard the abusive tone, she guessed that it was the mother-in-law who had always looked down on the original owner.

In the original owner's memory, all the sufferings she had endured were caused by this vicious mother-in-law. Of course, in modern Ruan Suhe, she left a bad impression on her.

What about being forced to marry, what about being forced to enter the bridal chamber, and later not even wanting to return it to the original owner, Tiedan, and planning to take it for himself with his brother-in-law's family...

"I came back in a hurry and didn't have time to call you." Lu Zhengxiang's tone was not as warm as if he hadn't seen his relatives for a long time, but rather dull.

Ruan Suhe didn't have time to think about why he treated his parents like that.

Now that the old man has come to visit, the younger couple should go out together to greet him. She quickened the pace of getting dressed, and when she hurried out of the house, the three people had already walked into the living room. She hurriedly dragged her injured leg to follow them.

"Oh! You are getting bolder now. You don't even know how to greet the elders at the door."

There was more and more sarcasm in her voice: "Where is my beloved grandson? You didn't lock him up in the woodshed again! You didn't beat him again! You cruel woman, hand over my beloved grandson now."

"Let me tell you, Zheng Xiang is here today, so I must have a good talk with him."

When Pan Yuemei saw her enter the room, she started talking like a machine gun.

Ruan Suhe probably guessed what her purpose of coming this time was. She wanted to completely get rid of the original owner's vicious mother-in-law. She thought that she would be more brutal than her in dealing with such people.

"Tiedan is my flesh and blood. I have said it many times that it is impossible to let Tiedan be adopted by my uncle in this lifetime. Don't even think about it."

"You are so rebellious. You beat and scold the two children every day. You might as well let Tiedan be adopted by Zhengyu and live with us."

"Why have I never heard you, mom, mention this matter of adoption to me? Also, who agreed to this matter of adoption?" Lu Zhengxiang immediately realized it and said with a serious face.

Pan Yuemei had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation. It was as if her chatterbox acupoint had been touched and she couldn't stop talking. She talked about how Ruan Suhe didn't want to give birth to the child, how she abused the child, and how selfish she was.

"My children, my husband and I will take care of them ourselves. I am planning to take them to the military family compound when I return from vacation this time, so you don't have to worry."

Before Pan Yuemei finished her complaints, Lu Zhengxiang interrupted her and announced a decision that shocked everyone.

Not only Pan Yuemei was stunned, but Ruan Suhe was also stunned for several seconds because of this sentence.

"Zhengxiang, did I hear you correctly? You want to take the three of them to the family compound? Don't you think she's embarrassed in the way she is now?"

Of course, there were reasons why Pan Yuemei chose the original owner as her son's wife, and there were more than one reason.

The first reason was that he thought she was pretty and thought that if she gave birth to a grandson, he would also be good-looking.

The second reason is that the betrothal gift is cheap and you don’t have to buy the three big items.

The third reason is that he has always been thinking about letting Ruan Suhe give birth to a son, so that he can find an excuse to adopt him under the name of the second son. Who made the second son marry a hen that can't lay eggs?

But he never expected that the original owner not only overeats himself into an ugly appearance of nearly 200 pounds, but also beats and scolds his grandson Tiedan, and now his eyes are full of disgust.

"I'll go."

Ruan Suhe knew that if she continued to stay in this village that was dissatisfied with the original owner's actions, there would be no good development, only more complaints, abuses, and contempt, so she quickly agreed.

Lu Zhengxiang was stunned for a second, then turned to look at her in surprise.

"Yes, I will go and take the child with me." She answered with a firm look in her eyes.

After saying this, she turned to Pan Yuemei and gave a fake smile.

"I'm so sorry, Mom. Tiedan and Ruoruo are going to follow us to the family compound. Don't worry, as long as I have something to eat, the two children won't starve. Don't worry too much."

Lu Zhengxiang understood immediately, turned around and rudely ordered the two elderly people to leave.

Pan Yuemei pulled Lu Aiguo, who had been silent the whole time, out of the door cursing.
