Chapter 287 The Proud Yao Family
Li Yunping naturally didn't take the sound of the chopsticks dropping to heart. Without even looking up, he personally served Lan Yin a bowl of egg and fish head soup. "Here, try this soup and see how it tastes! If you like it, I'll find a chef here and bring him home to make it for you every day!"
"How can that be? When I go back home with the general, I will eat whatever the general's family eats. Don't treat me specially. I will feel uneasy if I do that! And my sister may also be very unhappy!" Lan Yin said very considerately.
"Everyone in my family has a strong taste, you definitely won't be able to get used to it! Don't worry, I have the final say in my family!" Li Yunping smiled and served her another bowl of soup.
Looking at her aunt's appearance at the moment, Bai Yaoyao knew that the person sitting not far away must be her uncle Li Yunping.
No one expected that when they came happily to pick someone up, they would end up picking up a couple!
At this moment, Yao finally understood why the children had gone to such great lengths to invite her to the fish restaurant for dinner.
She glanced at Li Yunping and Lan Yin not far away and suddenly smiled, "So that's how it is. I understand."
After saying that, she stood up.
Except for the shock and disbelief she showed when she first saw Li Yunping, there was no other emotion on her face.
Her back was straight, a dignified smile still on her face, as she walked out.
Bai Yaoyao's eyes blurred in an instant. She seemed to see a mountain on her aunt's back, but she gritted her teeth and refused to let her back bend!
How could her aunt have ever suffered such an injustice?
Bai Yaoyao suddenly stood up and was about to go find Li Yunping and the others.
Yao's voice suddenly came from the side. Her tone was very calm, as if it was someone else who was doing this, not her. "If you still regard me as your elder and respect me, then don't get involved in this matter. After dinner, go home obediently!"
Bai Yaoyao had no choice but to stop!
Feng Shang put the money for the meal on the table, and everyone left the fish restaurant.
When they went out, the laughter of Li Yunping and Lan Yin was still echoing in their ears.
The four of them returned to the inn in silence along the way.
After getting off the car, Yao went straight back to her room and closed the door, not allowing anyone to enter.
After she went in, she threw herself onto the bed, covered herself with the quilt, and sobbed bitterly.
Echoing in my ears were the words Li Yunping said to the woman:
"Ever since you came to me, you haven't allowed me to eat spicy food, saying it's bad for my health. You've always told me to eat light food. Now, I have no interest in spicy food..."
"Yao also liked light flavors before marriage! It was only after marriage that she started eating spicy food with me. Now that I've switched to light food, she'll definitely be happier!"
"Who would stick to the same taste without changing? That person must have never tasted anything better. Once they've tasted something better, they'll think the original food isn't tasty anymore!"
Yao couldn't hold it in any longer and burst into tears, "Wuwu..."
Her mother died young and her father remarried.
Her stepmother was very picky about her as the eldest daughter. Fortunately, her grandmother loved and supported her. She hired the best masters to teach her, whether it was poetry, songs, housekeeping or business. Later, she even handed over the family business to her to practice, which helped her develop an independent, self-reliant and stubborn character.
But no one knows how much she longs for it every time she sees her stepmother and father getting along warmly with their children. She wishes she could also have the love of her parents and the pampering of her family.
Unfortunately, no.
After my grandmother passed away, her stepmother found excuses to take away all the property under her name, and even maliciously attempted to marry her to her nephew from her mother's family who was idle, drinking, whoring and gambling!
Yao cried to her father, but was beaten severely in return.
In desperation, she secretly asked a matchmaker to find a husband for her.
Fortunately, God treated her well and she met Old Lady Li when she went out one day. The unique gentleness and kindness of Old Lady Li touched her, so she bravely told Old Lady Li about the affairs of her family.
She originally thought that Madam Li would dislike her, but not only did she not dislike her, she even sent a matchmaker to her house the next day with a large sum of money!
When the stepmother saw the money brought by Mrs. Li, she was tempted and agreed with a smile.
From the moment she married into the Li family, she completely considered herself a member of the Li family!
Her mother-in-law and husband are her heaven, and she will protect this family at all costs. Until the birth of Li Mingyan, she loved this family even more.
Later, Li Yunping joined the army.
Her husband had lofty ambitions and wanted to serve the motherland, so she naturally would not stop him. She sent him to the battlefield with tears in her eyes. She did not expect him to achieve merit and be promoted to a general, nor did she expect him to bring honor to his hometown. She only hoped that his patriotic heart would be put to rest and that he would stay healthy on the battlefield!
And she guarded his home and mother, and his children for him, supporting all of this with her weak shoulders.
Everyone praised her for being virtuous and capable, and even forgot that she was also a woman, and she missed her husband in her dreams at midnight.
After fifteen years, she finally waited for her husband to return.
But I didn’t expect…
"Hehehe..." Yao suddenly laughed. The more she laughed, the more tears appeared on her face. The more tears appeared on her face, the more she laughed.
Outside the door, Bai Yaoyao, Li Mingyan and Feng Shang had not left. The three of them just stood there, all with looks of heartache and worry on their faces.
But none of them knocked on the door because they knew Yao needed to vent.
After about half an hour, Yao finally opened the door.
Apart from her slightly swollen eyes, Bai Yaoyao could no longer see any difference between her aunt and usual.
"What are you doing standing at the door, kids? Don't you know to go back to your room and rest?" Yao scolded the three people with a smile, "I know you're all worried about me, so come in!"
Bai Yaoyao stepped forward and hugged her directly, "Aunt, Yaoyao will love you forever!"
Yao's eyes instantly turned red, but she held back her tears, "Aunt knows that Yaoyao in our family is the most filial!"
After the three of them entered, they all sat down.
Li Mingyan spoke directly, "No matter what mother does, your son will support you! Even if it means divorce!"
Yao looked at him in surprise, "You don't care if your father and I get divorced?"
"Whether my mother is happy or not is what I care about most!" Li Mingyan said.
Yao finally couldn't hold back her tears, stepped forward, and hugged Li Mingyan, "My son!"
If she divorces Li Yunping, Li Yunping will definitely remarry. Then Li Mingyan will be like her when she was a child, with a stepmother and half-siblings. They will all exclude and slander him!
This is something Yao doesn't want to see.
If her life was completely miserable, she didn't want her son to be the same!
