Chapter 26 (None)
"Everyone praises you as a stepmother; you're almost as good as a biological mother. But some biological mothers are even worse than stepmothers!"
"What exactly happened?" Wang Mei was genuinely curious.
You know, not long ago they were all cursing her behind her back, saying that she, as a stepmother, was harsh on her stepson from her previous marriage. Later, she was frightened by Wang Tielu and became noticeably kinder to him. These people said that she had a change of heart and finally stopped being harsh on her stepson. They even said they were willing to visit her and chat with her.
Wang Mei was well aware of all this, but she was naturally willing to accept any kindness shown to her, as no one wanted to be the one who was disliked.
Moreover, given Wang Tielu's current temperament, she probably won't get away with anything.
Even if you're forced to do good deeds, who wouldn't like a good reputation!
Do you still remember Wang Dawei?
Wang Mei thought for a moment and said, "Wang Dawei? The one who married a wife and ran away to another place? I heard he's doing well now and has his own job in the city."
Back then, Wang Dawei's incident caused quite a stir in the production team. At that time, Wang Mei was not yet married and was in the same production team as Wang Dawei. It is said that the old couple in the Wang family said that if their son dared to leave, he should never come back for the rest of his life! Even so, Wang Dawei still left in the end, leaving his parents with his older brother. It is said that he has never come back in all these years.
"What's wrong? Is he coming back with his wife and kids?" Wang Mei asked.
"Where is he?" The other person sighed. "Wang Dawei is gone."
Wang Mei was startled: "Gone? Is it the one I was thinking of?"
"Yes, an illness took him away, leaving only a wife and a daughter." He sighed after saying that.
"So what is this now?"
"Wang Dawei's daughter is going to be sent back."
Okay, Wang Mei understands.
If the daughter is sent back, then the wife will remarry.
However, that wife was heartless; she didn't even want her daughter in order to remarry.
But thinking about it, I understand. It's not like he's a son. If he were to marry with his daughter, she would just be a burden. If it were a son, he probably couldn't take him with him either, since Wang Dawei still has relatives.
Wang Mei sighed, "That child is truly unfortunate. He lost his father, and his mother remarried. His future is going to be tough."
"That's right. Wang Dawei's older brother's family is making a huge fuss right now. They don't want the girl anymore. It was only after Old Man Wang and Old Lady Wang stepped in to suppress them, saying that they would raise her themselves and that their eldest son didn't need to!"
"They're moving out of Wang Dazhuang's house? Aren't they quite old?"
"That's what a sin! Wang Dazhuang actually agreed." It's only right for the eldest son to take care of the elderly couple. Now that they've moved out because of their daughter, it means they don't want their eldest son to support them anymore. Isn't that a sin?
"Sigh, every family has its own troubles," Wang Mei shook her head.
"Yes, I heard that girl is coming back today," the other person continued.
"today?"
"Yeah, they sent a telegram from over there saying it costs several dollars. They even sent a telegram. They must be rich." The other person scoffed.
Wang Mei didn't say anything, but in her heart she was certain that the other person was rich.
But this money will probably all go to Wang Dawei's wife in the future.
"What was that girl's name again?"
"Wang, Wang, yes, her name is Wang Yinhua!"
"The name sounds nice, and it even has 'silver' in it."
"Absolutely! Her mother is truly heartless..."
Just as the two were about to say something more, the door was suddenly flung open with a bang, and a small figure rushed out!
"What, what's wrong?"
Wang Mei explained, "They probably needed to use the restroom urgently."
"Sigh, really, you can't let this stepson ride roughshod over you. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your son."
Wang Mei gave a forced smile: "There's nothing I can do, I was the one who came later."
"You," the other person said, patting Wang Mei's shoulder sympathetically.
So, it's not good for a person to be too assertive; the more submissive she is, the more sympathy she receives.
Wang Mei felt as if she had grasped something.
Wang Tielu felt his heart pounding so hard, it was almost jumping out of his chest with joy!
His fiancée has arrived!
Yes, his fiancée's name was Wang Yinhua, and she was from another production team in Xiaowang Village. He thought he would have to wait a very, very long time, but now, his fiancée had arrived!
As Wang Tielu ran, he thought about many things, yet it seemed like he wasn't thinking about anything at all. It seemed like someone was calling him, but he couldn't hear them at all.
He was getting closer to the place he had visited many times but never seen any familiar faces.
This time, however, the area was surrounded by villagers.
Wang Tielu squeezed his way in, pushing and shoving, until finally he saw that somewhat familiar yet unfamiliar face, and his eyes lit up like stars—she had arrived!
"This must be Yinhua. Alas, poor child. You must live well with your grandparents from now on, and you must be filial to them when you grow up. Your grandparents have sacrificed a lot for you."
Grandma Wang stopped her, saying, "Why are you saying these things? The child is still young; don't frighten her."
"Yes, yes, look what I said. Today is a joyous day. The children are all back. Let's not say anything unlucky."
"Uncle and Aunt, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Grandpa and Grandma from now on!" The little girl's childish face was full of determination. Everyone who heard this was surprised for a moment, and then smiled: "Good, good, good, what a filial child!"
Old Man Wang and Old Woman Wang smiled broadly.
This child is good.
Although they don't expect the child to be filial, the fact that he said such things shows that he is grateful.
Seeing everyone praising Wang Yinhua, Wang Tielu proudly puffed out his chest. This was his fiancée, the kindest and best-natured Wang Yinhua, who never did evil to anyone.
He wanted to go up and acknowledge her, but Wang Yinhua was surrounded by people.
Moreover, he realized that now is not the future, not the time when they were deeply in love; right now, they were complete strangers.
Wang Tielu was heartbroken, but he quickly cheered himself up. It didn't matter; they had met in this life ahead of time. They would get to know each other soon and be together. He was very confident in their relationship!
This time, without their parents' interference, they will be even happier.
Thinking of all this, Wang Tielu put on a light smile—there's plenty of time in the future.
"System, are there any people around here who need help?"
The system's cold voice replied: "None."
Wang Yinhua nodded. Since there was no one she needed to strategize with, she could simply be the strong and filial child who had been abandoned by her own mother.
Wang Yinhua and her family made a ruckus for a long time until dusk, when everyone went home. Only then did Wang Tielu reluctantly leave, giving her a deep look before he went. However, Wang Yinhua didn't notice him at all that day, not even giving him a glance.
