Jing Fan glanced over coldly, "Yuan Ma, what are you doing?"
"Old lady, if you go there and let Jing Cong know..."
"If you don't tell me and I don't tell him, how would he know? I just went to talk to that old lady Ma. I don't want to do anything else." Jing Fan said impatiently.
Xu Yan was actually a little frightened, and quickly said, "Grandma Jing, let's not go. I'm also afraid that Uncle Chu will be angry."
Jing Fan quickly took off the jade bracelet from his wrist and placed it in her hand.
"Just think of it as grandma begging you. I haven't asked you to do anything in all the time we've known each other, right? I'm not going there to do anything, I just want to see that old lady Ma and talk to her."
Xu Yan could hardly walk when she saw such a big bracelet, so why would she refuse?
Yuan Ma couldn't stop him and could only watch Jing Fan get confused.
Two days later, an old lady came to the gate of the base, shouting that she was looking for Gu Xia.
The onlookers stopped when they heard the name.
Fortunately, Aunt Tian came to inform me as soon as possible.
When Gu Xia heard this, he knew that it was Old Lady Ma who came.
She has never been an easy person to deal with, and this time she is definitely not going to end well.
"Xiao Wang, go and invite the old lady in."
After getting the message, Xiao Wang went there for her.
Unexpectedly, the old lady refused and insisted that Gu Xia go out to pick her up in person.
"The old lady is a little excited, she's talking dirty and saying a lot of unpleasant things. You'd better not go out." Xiao Wang looked embarrassed.
Gu Xia shook her head. "She actually came to see me. She won't leave without seeing me. I'd better go out for a while."
Liang Su followed closely, "Mom, I'll go with you. The old lady should at least give me some face."
Gu Xia nodded, and the mother and daughter walked out hand in hand.
I met Chu Jingcong on the way. He also came here after hearing about this incident.
Gu Xia said unhappily, "What are you doing here? If she sees you, she'll probably be even angrier."
Chu Jingcong said, "This old lady is not in the right. Her son has been dead for many years. There is no reason for her to ask you to stay with him forever. You are marrying into their family, not selling yourself to them."
Gu Xia sighed. This matter was too complicated to explain clearly in a short time.
When she reached the door, the old lady saw her and Chu Jingcong walking together, and she became furious and charged the money to slap her.
Gu Xia took a step back and tried to hide, but was blocked by Chu Jingcong.
He didn't fight back and was slapped by her.
Even Gu Xia and Liang Su couldn't help but get angry.
"Old lady, you are going too far!" Liang Su stood up.
Old Mrs. Ma spat, now he didn't even give her face.
"How did I go too far? It's your mother who didn't keep her promise. She promised to remain a widow for my son for the rest of his life. Now she wants to break the contract. She deserves a beating!"
Liang Su gritted his teeth and said, "My mother has taken care of you for so many years. She no longer owes your Duan family anything. You have no reason to ask her to remain a widow for your Duan family!"
The old lady smiled coldly, "Gu Xia, I'm putting this on hold today. If you want to get married, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"
Gu Xia's eyes turned slightly cold. "First, I'm not thinking about getting married right now, so your concerns are unnecessary. Second, getting married or not is not my promise, but my choice. Third, my promise to Duan Yulin is that I will take good care of you and provide for your retirement, not just be a widow in the Duan family. Old lady, you really went a bit too far today. There are some things I originally thought it unnecessary for you to know, but it seems you have to know. Let's go in and talk."
"I won't go in! There's nothing shameful in my Duan family. If you have something to say, just say it here. Then come back to Coconut City with me. I won't allow you to stay here and hang out with this man!" Old Mrs. Ma was very emotional.
Gu Xia fell silent with a stern face. "It's about Yulin, I don't recommend talking about it here."
The old lady snorted coldly, "It's precisely because it's related to Yulin that I have to say it here!"
Gu Xia asked again and again: "Are you sure?"
"What's there to be uncertain about? As long as you dare to speak, I dare to listen!"
Gu Xia was irritated by her and thought that since she wanted to hear it, then let her tell it.
So that she would know that she had never owed the Duan family anything over the years.
"My mother and I nearly perished in the fire, but Yulin risked his life to save us. Afterwards, I hastily married him. We knew each other for less than two months. The old lady knew this. Do you know why? Why was it that in just two months, he insisted on marrying me?"
This was one of the things the old lady was dissatisfied with. She said coldly, "Of course it's because you are so charming and good at seducing men and making them obsessed with you."
Gu Xia chuckled, "He doesn't like women, how can I seduce him?"
The old lady was shocked. "You...you...what nonsense are you talking about!"
"Old lady, do you still remember Tang Zhao?"
Of course the old lady remembered that this was Duan Yulin’s best friend when he was young.
Then he went abroad with his family and has not returned since.
"Yulin is the only son of the Duan family. Because his father died young, you threw all your heart into him, trying to get him married quickly. He kept putting it off. Didn't you ever doubt it? Until the year you met me, you arranged one blind date after another for him, and he couldn't avoid it. It just so happened that I wanted to repay his kindness, and he could help me solve my problems. We hit it off, and that's how we got married."
After marriage, Duan Yulin has been helping her to find out about Song Song.
Even before he died, he was still saying: "Gu Xia, I'm so sorry that I couldn't help you find your child in the end."
Gu Xia still remembers that sentence today.
Duan Yulin did not entrust the old lady to her, but she was willing to stay in the Duan family to take care of the old lady.
Old Mrs. Ma was so frightened that she couldn't believe that her son actually liked men. She was so shocked that she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Chu Jingcong winked at Xiao Wang and said, "Send him to the hospital quickly."
The old lady was admitted to the hospital, and Gu Xia and Liang Su had no choice but to go with her.
Gu Xia sighed softly: "I told her long ago that I would talk about it in private, but she is so stubborn."
Even Liang Su found it unbelievable: "Mom, this uncle really..."
Gu Xia sighed, "Why would I lie to you? He left a suicide note, in which he explained this matter to the old lady. I only showed her the second half. What did he do wrong? He was just pursuing the one he loved."
Liang Su declined to comment. She did not know Duan Yulin and could not make any comments about him without authorization.
Chu Jingcong, on the other hand, didn't say a word the entire time, and no one knew what he was thinking.
The old lady was so angry that she woke up soon after receiving an IV drip in the hospital.
She knew she was in the wrong and was too ashamed to face Gu Xia, so she just sat there wiping her tears.
Instead, Gu Xia comforted her: "You are Yulin's mother. I promised to take care of you and provide for your old age and death. This promise remains unchanged. Mom, you will always be my mother-in-law."
Old Mrs. Ma covered her face and cried bitterly.
"I'm sorry for making you feel wronged for so many years."
Gu Xia shook her head. "Yulin was a very good person. He never let me suffer any injustice. I still have the first half of the suicide note he left behind. I'll have Xiaoyu give it to you later."
