"Why are you here?" Old Mrs. Xia also found it strange. When she was Xu Meiyu's sister-in-law, this man didn't like her very much. Why would he come to her now?
Old Lady Xia had thought that this person would sneer at her after hearing about her divorce, and then think that people like her were unreasonable. In her eyes, she had always been a relative who didn't need to worry about anything, and she looked down on her.
What was she doing here this time? Old Lady Xia was very confused. Was she here to vent her anger for their good brother Chen Weiguo? Was she here to scold her or to mock her?
Old Mrs. Xia was mentally prepared. If Xu Meiyu dared to scold her, she would just hit her and knock her down.
Xu Meiyu looked Old Lady Xia up and down. Seeing that she didn't seem sad or reluctant, she seemed even more energetic than before. She suddenly asked, "Why would you want to divorce Big Brother? We've been married for half our lives. Are you really willing to do that?"
Old Lady Xia curled her lips and said speechlessly, "If you're here to laugh at me, get out of here. I'm really tired of seeing you and all the relatives from Chen Weiguo's side. My hands itch when I see you."
Xu Meiyu suddenly burst into laughter. "I'm not laughing at you. You think too badly of me."
Old Lady Xia raised her eyelids and asked, "Aren't you mean enough to me?"
Xu Meiyu pointed at herself and asked doubtfully, "How have I treated you badly? If you say I ordered you around, you can't blame me."
Old Lady Xia: "Isn't it your fault that you ordered me around? You've never respected me as your sister-in-law before, right?"
Xu Meiyu: "Since you and Big Brother are divorced, I won't call you Big Sister-in-law anymore. It seems that you don't like this title very much, Sister Yue'e. You said I didn't respect you, but you should reflect on yourself. It was you who didn't refuse Big Brother and insisted on coming to my place to take care of me."
"If you really want to blame someone, blame Big Brother, or you can blame yourself. If you want to be respected by others, you must first respect yourself. Have you ever respected yourself before? You even paid me to take care of you during your confinement. Why would I refuse such a great offer? You can't even stand up for yourself, and you blame others for looking down on you?"
Seeing Old Lady Xia raise her hand, looking angry and ready to hit someone, Xu Meiyu immediately grabbed her hand and said, "It's not too late to hit me after you finish listening to me. I came to congratulate you, and I brought you a bottle of good wine."
Old Lady Xia endured it and said, "I think you are here just to laugh at me."
Seeing that Old Lady Xia didn't believe her, Xu Meiyu pulled a small bottle of wine from the bag she was carrying, stuffed it into her hand, and said seriously, "I'm serious. I saw that you were different at Xinhe's wedding. Back then, I told your second son that I admired you for being sober after being confused for half your life. Now that I see you dare to divorce your eldest brother, I know you've figured it out. I really came here to congratulate you. Congratulations on leaving your eldest brother, that rotten man, and your few worthless children."
Old Lady Xia fell silent. She rarely saw Xu Meiyu talking to her with such a serious expression. Every time she came before, she never looked at her directly, but now...
"Why..." Old Mrs. Xia didn't understand. She felt that Xu Meiyu was a complicated person and she couldn't see through her behavior.
Xu Meiyu raised her head and looked at the sunlight shining on the tree in front of the textile factory gate. The tree looked full of vitality. "You took care of me for a while, and now you are alive again. I wanted to see if you had any difficulties that I could repay you for."
"So, what are your plans for the future?" Xu Meiyu asked enthusiastically.
Old Lady Xia herself was confused about the future. She had just been divorced for a few days and hadn't really settled down to do anything yet, so in response to Xu Meiyu's question, she simply said, "I don't know."
Seeing Xu Meiyu's face darken, Old Lady Xia heard her say, "You're divorced and you haven't figured out what you want to do in the future? Then why did you get a divorce?"
Old Mrs. Xia was also angry. "What's my divorce got to do with you? I can't stand them anymore, so of course I'm getting a divorce. Why are you so anxious? Besides, I'm already old, what else can I do? Am I supposed to run for a leadership position? Or am I supposed to be more ambitious and make my own contribution to the people and society? Otherwise, I'll join the army to protect the peace."
Xu Meiyu: "Get lost! I thought you had found what you wanted to do, that you had finally found your direction and your own value, but now you tell me you know nothing and are confused about everything. How is this different from the muddleheaded days in your previous home?"
Old Lady Xia: "Why am I so confused? At least I'm happy now. I can think about what I want to do in the future slowly. Whether it's living a stable life alone or making other plans, there's no rush."
Xu Meiyu: "What are your other plans? You want to find another old man whose wife has died and serve him and his family again, right?"
Old Lady Xia: "Are you complaining about me on behalf of Chen Weiguo? Whether I want to be alone or want to find another one, what right do you have to control me?"
Xu Meiyu sneered, "Abandoning your original husband and biological children to serve another old man's family, if you really dare to do such a thing, Xia Yue'e, I will look down on you for the rest of my life."
The more Xu Meiyu looked at her, the more annoyed she became. "How dare you take my wine? It's not your turn to drink this good wine. You are such a hopeless case."
She snatched the wine and left. Old Mrs. Xia was inexplicably scolded by her and stood there for a long time. She didn't say she wanted to find another old man. She hadn't thought about her future goals yet, so why did she treat her with such malicious intent?
As for her saying that she abandoned her husband and children to serve another old man, Old Mrs. Xia had an indescribable feeling of disgust in her heart, as if someone had suddenly fabricated a dirty rumor about an innocent person for no reason.
Sure enough, Xu Meiyu was still the same Xu Meiyu who looked down on her in her heart. She was unlucky.
Xu Meiyu came with high hopes but left disappointed. She felt that she disliked Chen Weimin when she saw him, not to mention that Chen Xiangbei was still talking to his third uncle for such a long time. Chen Weimin had no desire to be with him.
"You just keep saying to us, why doesn't your mother speak human language and do human things when she is at home. If you have the free time, why don't you go see your mother? Forget it, it's better not to go. Your mother is just confused." Xu Meiyu was upset. How could she think that Xia Yue'e, this scum among women, would wake up? She originally wanted to help, but now she is so angry.
She swore that she would never see Xia Yue'e again.
"Chen Weimin, and you, why are there no normal people in your family? They are all bad people, and I think you are not a good person either."
Chen Weimin was scolded, and although he didn't know why, he immediately tried to appease the man, and then he was scolded even more harshly.
Chen Xiangbei scratched his head, unable to understand. Are all women so unreasonable?
