Ever since she married He Boqian, Cao Yumei's heart had been filled with him. However, every time the He sisters confronted her, He Boqian wouldn't speak up to help her out, and today was no different. Her heart, no matter how passionate it was, would be chilled by a bucket of ice water, right?
Today, Cao Yumei did not look at things from He Boqian's perspective. She felt like an outsider. Instead, she saw the behavior of the He family clearly. Although it was a little late, it was better than being stupid all her life, wasn't it?
Although Cao Yumei was unwilling to believe that He Boqian did not love her, that was the fact.
In the first few years of their marriage, He Boqian was a considerate and good husband. However, after Cao Yunfei became reluctant to support the He family, He Boqian gradually changed. He rarely came home, and when he did, he didn't smile at Cao Yumei. Cao Yumei initially believed that she wasn't doing enough to make He Boqian ignore her.
After having his son, He Qiusheng, He Boqian began staying out all night, citing He Qiusheng's crying as a distraction and a lack of energy for work the next day. Cao Yumei felt a pang of sadness. He Qiusheng had often cried at night before he was a year old, and Cao Yumei spent entire nights walking around with him, trying to comfort him. Not only did He Boqian not help, but he also used the child's crying as an excuse to stay home. This was his son! Could it be that, in He Boqian's heart, his son's inexplicable crying wasn't as important as his sleep?
They had been married for less than ten years, but Cao Yumei felt like she had lived half her life. She quietly did what the eldest daughter-in-law of the He family should do, managing the household and keeping it well. For the He family, she didn't need to interfere in other matters.
He Boqian did not protect Cao Yumei's face, and Cao Yumei's status in the He family declined again and again. Even her son He Qiusheng was the least favored grandson in front of He Shumin.
Cao Yumei has always had a good memory. He Boqian hasn't called her "Meizi" for several years. He only calls her that when he needs her to go back to her parents' home for help.
Hehehe... Has Cao Yumei always been a fool in the eyes of the He family? She is no longer the Cao Yumei of six years ago. Six years ago, Cao Yumei humbled herself to the dust for the sake of a fleeting love. Every time she endured grievances, she only wanted to get a small glance back from He Boqian.
Cao Yumei no longer dreams. For the sake of her children, she will not be used as a pawn by the He family.
After making up her mind, Cao Yumei went upstairs to pack some things and prepared to go back to her parents' home with her son.
Before leaving, He Meiyun said sarcastically, "Wow! You have to carry so many bags just to go back to your parents' home. No wonder my eldest brother and nephew have lost weight. It seems that all the money my eldest brother earned went back to your parents' home with you, sister-in-law?"
"Or maybe I'd rather not go! I'll save some for you, Auntie, to take home and eat." Cao Yumei placed the bottles of wine back on the table with a blank expression. She was being asked to go back to her parents' home empty-handed to beg for help? Only she'd be crazy to do that. While she wasn't planning on asking her father for help, hadn't she done enough for the He family over the years? This was the respect she deserved.
"Oh, sister-in-law! Don't pay attention to Meiyun's nonsense. She's just straightforward and speaks quickly, but she doesn't mean any harm." He Meijia saw that He Boqian's brows were furrowed, and quickly took a few bottles of wine from the table and stuffed them into Cao Yumei's hands. He Meijia was almost mad at He Meiyun. She didn't like Cao Yumei, and she could do whatever she wanted when Dad came back. Why bother to upset Cao Yumei at this critical moment?
Cao Yumei snorted, saying nothing. She took the bottles from He Meijia, called the family driver, and walked out with her son. The He family warehouse was full of Moutai like this. Every time the He sisters returned to their parents' home, they would bring bottles home. Why was it that she couldn't have it? If Cao Yunfei didn't love drinking, Cao Yumei wouldn't have wanted it.
Don't think she didn't understand what He Meijia meant. He Meiyun was three years older than her. What did it mean to be blunt and outspoken? Was it that He Meiyun was right? Pah! She didn't bother to pay attention to her.
After watching Cao Yumei pull He Qiusheng's hand and walk out the door, He Meijia said to He Meiyu: "Big sister, why did you go to mess with her? Dad's matter is still unresolved!"
Everyone present knew that the "she" He Meijia was referring to was Cao Yumei. After all, Cao Yumei was a member of the Cao family, and Cao Yunfei's current status was higher than He Shumin's.
"Don't worry, big sister, Yumei won't take it to heart." He Boqian smiled and came to He Meiyun's rescue. To be honest, He Shumin's disappearance made He Boqian very anxious, and what made him even more angry was Cao Yumei's silence.
Since when did his wife, who was devoted to him, stop thinking about him? Shouldn't she have gone back to her parents' home to ask for help the moment she found out the old man was missing?
About ten minutes after Cao Yumei left, the phone in the living room rang.
He Boqian rushed to the phone and picked up the phone.
"Yes, I am He Boqian." After saying this, He Boqian kept listening to what the other party was saying.
As time passed, He Boqian's face became darker and darker. After hearing the other party hang up the phone with a "click", He Boqian was so angry that he threw the microphone in his hand to the ground, making a loud "bang" sound, which scared He Jingjing, He Yusheng and other juniors so much that they jumped up.
"Brother, what's wrong?" He Boyuan was sitting close to the phone and vaguely heard words like "human world" and "pick someone up". He was feeling confused.
"Dad has been found. Sisters, you guys go home first! It's getting late." When He Boqian heard He Boyuan's question, he calmed down his anger and said to He Meijia and her sisters with an expressionless face.
What He Boqian was about to say was so bizarre that he intended to tell only He Boyuan and not his sisters. After all, each sister had her own husband's family to support. Such a thing was too embarrassing, and the fewer people who knew about it, the more face the He family would have.
"Dad has been found. Where is he? I want to go see him." He Meiyu's brain is not as smart as her other two sisters, and she is always the first one to jump out.
"Second sister, let's go home first! Dad must be tired and needs more rest. We will come back to see him tomorrow." He Meining advised softly. Just by looking at He Boqian's current expression, He Meining could predict that He Shumin's condition must be not good, otherwise, He Boqian would not have driven them away.
After hearing He Meining's considerate words, He Boqian's expression finally looked a little better. After all, when he met someone as stubborn as He Meiyu, He Boqian sometimes didn't know what to say. With He Meining's help, he saved himself from wasting words.
