Chapter 114: Direct Attack

Wang Ergu followed her into the yard and looked at the tidy little yard with burning eyes.

It's such a waste for a little girl to live in such a big yard.

Standing under the grape trellis, looking at the bunches of purple grapes, Wang Ergu picked one and put it in her mouth. It was so sweet.

Dai Qing put the fish in the kitchen. When she turned around, she saw Wang Ergu nibbling at her grapes. She couldn't help frowning.

"How did you get in?"

"How can you talk like that, kid? I am your elder after all. As a girl, I cannot be rude."

Aunt Wang spat out the grape seeds in her mouth, took out her handkerchief and wiped her hands.

"Don't worry, Second Aunt won't blame you. After all, you don't have an elder to teach you. If you do anything wrong in the future, Second Aunt will teach you."

Dai Qing narrowed her eyes when she heard Wang Ergu's self-righteous attitude.

"Aunt Wang wants to teach me a lesson? I wonder if you want to teach me how to enter without permission, or how to touch other people's things at will?"

Seeing Dai Qing's cold eyes, Wang Ergu was stunned and looked a little embarrassed.

"My grandfather taught me since I was a child to be upright, to walk with my head held high, not to cause trouble but not to be afraid of it, to be grateful and not to cause trouble to others. I have always kept these in mind and never dared to forget them. I wonder what else Aunt Wang wants to teach me?"

Hearing Dai Qing's pointed tone and cold eyes, Wang Ergu's face flushed.

"How come you are so sincere, kid?"

"Aunt Wang has already mentioned my upbringing, why is it not true? Do you think I can let you slander my grandfather?"

Dai Qing said, picked up the broom, walked over to her, and swept the grape skins she had spit on the ground into the rubbish bin.

"I'm going to cook. Bye."

"You...you kid, why are you still angry..."

Wang Ergu was reluctant to leave and wanted to say a few more words, but when she saw Dai Qing's cold eyes, she fell silent and could only leave in embarrassment.

The look in this damn girl's eyes is scary.

He is really uneducated and doesn't even have the manners to entertain guests.

Dai Qing closed the door and turned around to make braised fish. She cooked the whole fish, eating half and teaching the other half.

Feng Yong and Lan Qin drove home, both excited and worried, "Lan Qin, you go home first, I'll go to the construction site to take a look."

"Okay, drop me off at the intersection. I'm going to the market. Mom said she wanted to eat fish yesterday."

Thinking of the Master's reminder, Lan Qin looked at him worriedly.

"Brother Yong, you should be careful. It's better to believe it than not. I think Master Dai is young but capable. Please don't get into trouble. You are the only one I can rely on."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Feng Yong smiled. He had not realized it before, but after listening to the master's words today, many things he had ignored came to his mind. The construction team he took over from his father could not be destroyed in his hands.

Lanqin got off the bus at the intersection, turned to the market and bought a bag of vegetables and a fish. As soon as she entered the gate of the community, a neighbor lady came up to her.

"Lanqin, you're not at home. No wonder your family members are standing downstairs instead of going upstairs."

The neighbor lady looked at the vegetables and fish in her hands with a fake smile on her face.

"Hey, you bought so many dishes to entertain your mother-in-law. I think your mother-in-law is a really good person. If it were someone else, they would definitely be angry."

"Thank you for reminding me, my mother-in-law is not a stingy person. She never meddles in our affairs."

Lan Qin smiled faintly, but when she thought of her brother from her natal family, she couldn't help frowning. She married Feng Yong out of free love, and she was indeed marrying above her station.

In the beginning, Feng Yong helped her brothers from her mother's side a lot, but both brothers were incompetent. They couldn't do any small projects they were given several times, and in the end, Feng Yong had to finish the work for them.

They themselves knew they were not cut out for engineering work, so they just kept quiet.

But her mother would come to her from time to time to complain about how difficult her brothers' lives were, and every time she did so, she would give them some money. But in the past two years, she failed to get pregnant, and her mother-in-law became dissatisfied with her.

Seeing her mother's cold attitude when she came over, she knew in her heart that her family was not supportive, did not give her face, and kept asking for things. It was normal for her mother-in-law to have opinions.

She was tired of this kind of life, but her mother didn't understand her at all, which made her feel caught in the middle. Fortunately, Feng Yong always understood her, otherwise, she would have been discouraged.

I hurried downstairs and saw her mother and two brothers standing there. Although they were well dressed, they looked out of place in this neighborhood.

"Little sister, are you back?"

"Qin, why did it take you so long to buy vegetables?" Mother Lan looked at her daughter's vegetable basket. "Mother and your brother have been waiting downstairs for more than an hour."

"Really? Then why don't you go upstairs?"

Lan Qin pretended not to notice the unhappiness in her mother's eyes and chuckled.

"My mother-in-law shut you out?"

Hearing the question from her daughter, Lan's mother's face froze. "We went upstairs and knocked on the door, but your mother-in-law said you weren't at home and didn't even bother inviting us in to sit down... We are in-laws after all, this is too outrageous."

"That's right, little sister, your brother-in-law is so nice to you, but your mother-in-law is really not a nice person."

Lan Qin looked at the three of them, mother and son, and felt inexplicably sad. "My mother-in-law was very nice to me at first. If you hadn't been so demanding and disgusting, I wouldn't have been rejected by others."

"Little sister, what do you mean by this? Does Feng Yong have any opinions about us? I'm going to..."

Before her son could finish, his mother grabbed his arm. She looked at her daughter awkwardly and smiled.

"Xiaoqin, you also know that our family is poor and cannot compare with your husband's family. Since we are relatives, isn't it right for you to help him? Besides, I am such a well-behaved and filial daughter who has married him. It is easy for me to help my brother-in-law. Why are you still bothered by it?"

Lan Qin listened to this, looked at her quietly for a moment, and smiled bitterly.

"Just because I married Feng Yong, does he owe our family forever? If I get divorced and come home to live with you, will my brother and sister-in-law be willing? Are you willing, mom?"

"What? Divorce? Why would they get divorced when everything is fine?" Lan's mother looked at her daughter in shock and didn't believe what she said.

"What does Feng Yong mean? My little sister, a good and virgin girl, married him and divorced him just because she wanted to. Who gave him the courage to do so?"

Seeing her two brothers getting angry and ready to fight, Lan Qin felt sad.

"Feng Yong and I have been married for five years and we still don't have a child. We have been to all the hospitals and tried all kinds of folk remedies, but there is still no sign of a child. My mother-in-law wants to have a grandson, so she asked Feng Yong to divorce me. It was just a matter of words. You know, he is a filial son. If I was really driven back home, would my brother really dare to beat him?"

Several people listened to Lanqin's tone, looked at her eager eyes, and thought about their efforts to have a child over the years, and suddenly became dispirited.
