At noon, the two families sat together for a meal, and the marriage was settled.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, after sending the Shen family away, the Yun family members all slumped on the sofa, with the table full of unfinished games. Li Yuling pushed Gu Zhinian,
"Zhi Nian, go inside and rest for a while. You haven't rested all day. You must be exhausted!"
"It's okay." Gu Zhinian stood up and tried to clean the table, but Yun Muye snatched it away.
"Let me do it!"
Yun Shuang changed her clothes and came over to put away the chopsticks on the table. "Mom, sister-in-law, I'll clean up. You all go and have a rest."
Yun Muye dragged Gu Zhinian back to the house and said, "Go to sleep for a while. I'll go clean up."
"Okay." Gu Zhinian had been busy for most of the day and was indeed feeling very tired, so he obediently lay down on the bed and went to sleep.
Returning to the living room, Yun Muye rolled up his sleeves and cleaned up with Yun Shuang. Li Yuling pressed her aching waist and went back to sleep.
"You two brothers should clean up. I've been busy all day and my back hurts."
"Mom, are you okay?" Yunshuang helped her into the house. Little Tangyuan was sleeping soundly on the bed. He was exhausted after playing all day.
Li Yuling waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I'm just tired. I'll be fine after a short sleep."
On the sofa in the living room, Yun Jianguo's face was red from drinking. He stood up shakily and wanted to go back to the guesthouse. Yun Muye supported him and sent him back to the guesthouse.
On the way, Fang Yuanming stopped him and said, "Brother Muye, I heard Yunshuang got engaged today."
"yes."
Fang Yuanming couldn't describe how he felt. The girl who had been around him since childhood was engaged to someone else, and he felt a little depressed.
Yun Muye asked in a cold tone, "Is there anything else? If not, please get out of the way."
Fang Yuanming was stunned for a moment and hurriedly stepped aside, but Yun Jianguo put his arm around Fang Yuanming's neck and pointed at him with one hand. The strong smell of alcohol on his body could not be dispelled.
"Fang Yuanming, stay away from my daughter from now on. Do you think I don't know your little tricks? Aren't you just enjoying the feeling of my daughter liking you and being around you? We are all men, who can you fool? Not only do I know, Yunshuang's brother knows too. This little girl is just in love and is just playing around with you. If we really want to get married, you are not worthy of my daughter!"
Fang Yuanming blushed with embarrassment, "Uncle Yun, I don't understand what you are talking about. Yun Shuang and I are just ordinary friends."
Yun Jianguo punched him under the influence of alcohol.
"Fuck your ordinary friends. My daughter saved a seat for you at school, made meals for you, made greeting cards for you, and gave you gifts on your birthday every year. This is just an ordinary friendship, Fang Yuanming, who are you playing dumb with?
My daughter used to like you, so I didn't want to bother you. Now, she's finally let you go. I'm so angry. You've humiliated my precious daughter, whom I've cherished since she was little. Do you really think the men in my Yun family don't exist? You little bastard! I wish I could kill you, you bastard!
Yun Jianguo raised his arm and punched him again. Fang Yuanming was so frightened that he put his hands on his head.
"Brother Muye, stop Uncle Yun."
Yun Muye didn't stop him, he had been wanting to fight for a long time. Yun Jianguo threw a few punches before Yun Muye stepped forward to stop him and warned:
"Fang Yuanming, stay away from Yunshuang from now on, and don't come to our house."
Yun Muye helped Yun Jianguo leave. Fang Yuanming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, spat, and stared at the backs of the father and son with his dark eyes. He was just a small soldier in the army, and it was not easy to climb up. He had originally wanted to get close to Yun Shuang, get Yun Muye, and let him help him, but now, it was all over.
The next morning, Gu Zhinian got up late again. He hurriedly took a piece of cake and went to work. Yun Muye had a task and left early as well. Yun Shuang took Xiao Tangyuan to kindergarten.
Yun Jianguo still had work to do, and it would be unsuitable for him to stay here all the time. He wanted Li Yuling to go back with him. Li Yuling thought about it and refused.
"Jianguo, I haven't had a single day of rest since I married into your family. Every day when I open my eyes, I'm either serving this or that. I'm so exhausted. I've never had a day for myself. I don't want to go back to that home. Please let me go, okay?"
Yun Jianguo remained silent and sighed.
"So, you don't want to live with me anymore."
Li Yuling smiled bitterly.
"I don't have such thoughts. I never thought about divorce when I was young, and I won't think about it now that I'm old. Divorce will make the children laugh at us. We still have a few years to live. Let's just live like this. You live with your youngest son's family, and I'll live with my eldest son's family. That's it!"
Yun Jianguo looked at the wrinkles on his wife's eyes and the wrinkled skin on her hands, and felt anxious.
"Thank you for your hard work over the years, running the house and taking care of the children for me. Thank you."
Li Yuling's eyes were red, and tears of grievance fell drop by drop. She covered her mouth tightly, not allowing herself to cry. She had worked hard for most of her life, and only he said thank you for his hard work. Why did she feel so aggrieved?
"Go ahead, Panpan, pick a better nanny for her."
Li Yuling ignored him and got up to go back to the house. Yun Jianguo took a deep breath, took out a passbook from his bag and put it on the table, picked up his luggage, opened the door and left. Two days later, he returned to his home in Beijing.
Song Panpan came forward holding her little daughter and looked back.
"Dad, where's my mom? Didn't you say you would bring her back?"
Yun Jianguo didn't even look at her, he went straight into the house, dropped his luggage, and sat on the sofa.
"Tomorrow I'll go to the labor market and hire two nannies, one to cook and one to look after the kids. You don't have to worry about it anymore."
"What!" Song Panpan sat opposite her father-in-law.
"Why don't you let my mom come back!"
Yun Jianguo stood up and roared angrily, "How dare you mention your mother? If it weren't for you, she would have run away from home because of you! From now on, she will never come back. Don't even think about expecting her to come back and serve you. If you don't want to take care of the child, I can hire a nanny. If you dare to drive the nanny away again, you will have to take care of the child yourself!"
Yun Jianguo went upstairs with his luggage. Song Panpan was stunned by his yelling, and the child in her arms started crying loudly in fear. Song Panpan put the child on the sofa and blamed her.
"Cry, cry, cry! All you do is cry all day long! I'm so fed up!"
The child cried even louder, his voice becoming hoarse.
As soon as Yun Langqian entered the door, he heard the crying of a child. He hurried into the house with his briefcase. Since his mother left, he turned down banquets hosted by his colleagues, stopped socializing with others, and went home to see his child after get off work. His spoiled wife didn't care about the child at all.
After entering the house, he threw away his briefcase, picked up the child on the sofa and coaxed him.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you getting mad at the child?"
Song Panpan sat on the sofa and cried, "Dad came back and said Mom would never come back. He blamed me for making Mom angry and leaving her and for not wanting her to come back."
Yun Langqian held the child in his arms, standing there in a daze.
"Yeah?"
