Yang Su listened cheerfully to the Yu family's parents arguing with their child, and fanned the flames, saying, "You've been carefully nurturing them since they were young, and you're not ashamed to say that. I think you might as well stop nurturing them. Children who are left alone are better than the ones you raise."
Yu Qingqing didn't even spare Yang Su a glance and continued, "Mom and Dad, no matter how many children you have, they will all be unlucky. It's not enough that I'm not in your eyes, you even think my brother is useless, so I think this baby in your belly..."
She didn't finish the rest of her words, but she felt that the child had suffered enough, and if she continued, she would seem even more inhuman.
"Anyway, he's really pitiful being raised like this by you guys."
Yu's mother had a bad temper before she was pregnant, and it got even worse when she was pregnant. Seeing that her mentally ill daughter dared to say that to her, she couldn't stand it and raised her hand to hit her.
Yu Hongzhen wanted to stop him, but the distance was a bit far. Unexpectedly, Chen Xiangbei took action.
He grabbed Yu's mother's hand and pushed her towards Yu's father. "Don't you consider yourself an intellectual, a cultured person, and someone from a big city? Why do you hit people at the drop of a hat, and in public? You're not even as good as the uneducated old ladies in our neighborhood. How dare you find fault with this and that?"
If you think you don't like your son and daughter so much, why are you still coming here? Are you going to use the name of family affection to let them raise this baby in your belly?"
A hint of unnaturalness flashed across Yu's father's face.
Chen Xiangbei immediately yelled, "You two old bastards, you wanted to give birth to an obedient tool, but you couldn't raise it? Did I guess right?
Let me guess again, you two are both not young anymore. Even if you are still leaders in your respective factories, you will only retire five years later than ordinary workers. By then, your child may not even have finished elementary school, and you will have to retire.
Yu's father shouted, "What does our family's affairs have to do with you? They are the child's brothers and sisters. Shouldn't they be taken care of?"
Chen Xiangbei was about to yell. His sister had just been married to Brother Yu for a few years, and now she was already helping take care of his younger brother, who was only a few years older. How was this any different from being a mother? Furthermore, judging by Yu's mother's condition, she didn't look well. Her health might even worsen after giving birth. If she just dumped the child over here, and then dragged her sick body to their place for his sister to take care of, his sister would be exhausted to death.
But Chen Xiangnan was quicker than him. He continued Chen Xiangbei's words and said, "Your resources after retirement will definitely not be as good as your current resources, but your current resources are not enough for this child, so you set your sights on your eldest son.
Judging from the way you looked just now, you two old people are not planning to settle down here, right? Not only can Captain Yu help you raise the child, but he can also take care of you two."
Chen Xiangbei discovered that his second brother and he had the same idea. His second brother's brain must have been certain that this thing would happen if he could say this. Chen Xiangbei cursed: "You two old shameless people, you are both right and wrong.
You have the nerve to look down on my sister. If you look down on her, you still want her to serve you. When the time comes, give her the hardest work, and you can even interfere in their lives. Shameless, I have never seen such shameless people like you. Bah! "
Chen Xiangbei spat on Yu's father's shoes. He wanted to spit in his face, but they were his brother-in-law's parents after all, so he had to be rational in front of his brother-in-law.
Yu Hongzhen's face turned ugly. He said in a deep voice, "Mom and Dad, I absolutely cannot help you raise this child, nor can I accept you coming here."
Yu's father was about to hit him again, but he stopped him, "Dad, don't forget that you are old. I didn't hide before because I still recognized you as my father, but if you do this again, I will not care about you anymore even if it means sacrificing my future."
Chen Xiangbei chimed in, "You shouldn't bother with this now. I really don't know what you're still looking forward to."
Yu's father pointed at Yu's mother's belly and said, "He's your biological brother. Are you really so cruel as to not care about him?"
Yu Hongzhen pointed at Yu Qingqing and said, "Qingqing is your biological daughter. You raised her since she was little, but you don't care about her, do you?"
Old Chen found the entire state-owned restaurant far too quiet. He looked around and saw that while everyone was busy eating, they were also listening intently to the excitement at their table. Apart from theirs, no one at the other tables was talking, as if they were afraid to miss something.
He felt embarrassed again. Seeing the tense situation of the Yu family, he had no choice but to try to mediate: "We are all family. Let's eat first. There is no need to make such a fuss."
Chen Xianghong, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly said, "Dad, forget about trying to smooth things over in your own family, and don't get involved in other people's affairs. Anyway, we need to make this matter clear today."
Old Chen said: "Why are you getting so angry, girl? It's just a matter of raising a child and adding a pair of chopsticks. Xiaoyu's salary is so high, it's not like he can't afford to support him."
Yu Hongzhen: "Uncle, that's not the way it should be. Raising a child requires more than just money; it also requires a lot of energy. Besides, if this child is thrown over to me, my parents will definitely come over too. How will Xiang Hong and I live then?"
Old Chen: "Well... here, there are no married couples who have to live on their own. Don't most people live with their parents-in-law?"
Chen Xianghong sneered, "Then you raise them, Dad. You have such a high salary, it's just a matter of adding three pairs of chopsticks. When their children come to me, I will bring them home to you to raise. Let them live with you, and you can make your own arrangements."
Old Chen: "What does this... have to do with me?"
Chen Xianghong: "Why are you meddling in things that have nothing to do with you? Do I care about raising a child? I don't care about raising Brother Yu's younger brother, but I care about them both coming to live with us. No matter what I do, I will be found guilty. I am different from my second sister-in-law. I don't have a room for me to live in my parents' house.
If they were kind people, I would certainly be happy to live with my in-laws. But they are not. They were so cruel to Brother Yu and Qingqing, and they would be even crueler to me, an outsider.
Seeing that the two of them were suddenly targeting him, Old Chen whispered, "If you don't like them so much, then why don't you inform them of your marriage? You won't be happy when they show up."
Yu Hongzhen held Chen Xianghong's hand and said, "If my parents aren't even present when I marry Xianghong, it's like eloping. Wouldn't that be unfair to Xianghong? She's my legitimate wife, and everyone who should know should know. Why do we have to be so secretive?"
Chen Xianghong turned her head suddenly to look at him. She had not thought of it to this extent.
