Chapter 75: Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man
"Zhiqiu, is this your home?"
Li Shuying looked around the yard in disbelief and gently touched Ye Yunlin's arm: "This is almost as big as the yards of our eight families, right?"
Ye Yunlin nodded.
"Uncle, aunt, let's go inside first." Shen Zhiqiu took Li Shuying's arm and led them to the guest room.
The four people had three rooms, and after everything was arranged, they sat together. Ye Yunlin's family had not yet come to their senses and felt very uneasy.
"Zhiqiu, was this yard bought by your parents-in-law?" Li Shuying asked Shen Zhiqiu.
Shen Zhiqiu picked up the teapot and poured water for them while explaining: “Aunt, no, this is what Mingyuan’s grandmother left for him.”
"Mingyuan's grandmother is Manchu, and this was originally her mother's home."
"During that period, the yard was taken away and then returned. Before she passed away, the old lady left a message, leaving the yard to Mingyuan."
Shen Zhiqiu paused and said, "Later, Mingyuan gave it to me as a gift."
Li Shuying's hand holding the water cup trembled, and she raised her voice: "Does this mean that this yard is yours now? Have you completed the formalities? Verbal promises are useless, only written words are real."
"I didn't agree to it, but he did it secretly."
Shen Zhiqiu still remembers her complicated feelings when she saw the land certificate.
Then she and Yue Mingyuan had an argument about this matter. She forgot what she said, and it was rare for Yue Mingyuan to get angry with her.
After finally meeting during vacation, they parted on bad terms, and only reconciled after she found out she was pregnant.
"Just for this reason, Xiaoyuan is considered a good kid in my opinion."
"This man can't be judged by what he says, but by what he does, especially when it comes to money."
"Some men may say this and that, but when you ask them to spend real money, they are nothing."
Li Shuying turned her gaze from Shen Zhiqiu to Ye Jiawen, and Ye Jiawen immediately sat up straight, as if facing a great enemy: "Mom, why are you looking at me?"
"I am saying these words to Zhiqiu, and also to you."
"If you meet a man you like, don't be too hasty to be devoted to him. You need to observe his character carefully."
"These two have to spend their whole lives together, so don't treat it as a joke!"
"Men are afraid of choosing the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man!"
"Mom, I have so much to do at school, and I don't even have enough time to study, so how can I have time to think about these things?"
Ye Jiawen hugged Li Shuying's arm and said coquettishly: "I won't get married. I want to stay with you and my dad for the rest of my life and be an old maid at home."
"What nonsense!"
Li Shuying tapped Ye Jiawen's nose and said, "Don't think you are saying this now. If your father and I don't let you marry someone you really like, you will blame us."
"We can't keep this girl. If we keep her, we'll just end up with an enemy."
"I won't abandon my parents for a man."
Ye Jiawen looked at Ye Yunlin, then at Ye Jiawu: "Family always comes first in my heart."
"Sister, if that bastard you find in the future bullies you, I'll beat him up for you!"
Ye Jiawu shook his fist and looked at Shen Zhiqiu: “Sister Zhiqiu, you too, I will protect you and my sister.”
"Wow, my little dog has really grown up."
Ye Jiawen reached out and rubbed Ye Jiawu's head, just like patting a puppy: "Don't worry, I'm not someone you can easily bully. I'll protect you."
"Uncle, aunt, how long do you plan to stay this time?" Shen Zhiqiu told Wan Jiayin what she asked: "My mother-in-law wants to invite you to her home as a guest."
"We will stay a little longer this time. Your second uncle has half a month's vacation. We plan to stay for about ten days."
Li Shuying and Ye Yunlin looked at each other and said, "We are planning to meet your parents-in-law and sit down to talk."
"Zhiqiu, Xiaoyuan's family is well off, but ours isn't bad either. If you're unhappy about something, don't just keep feeling wronged and say nothing."
"No matter what the bastard Shen Daqiang is, your second uncle and I will never let you suffer any injustice, do you understand?"
"Aunt, I know." Shen Zhiqiu choked and threw himself into Li Shuying's arms.
Li Shuying felt so distressed that she gently stroked Shen Zhiqiu's hair: "Zhiqiu, if you have anything to say, tell me and your uncle, don't keep it to yourself."
"I just feel sorry for my second uncle and aunt." Shen Zhiqiu cried bitterly: "I should have sent you a telegram myself during my wedding."
Ever since Ye Yunlin and the others entered the yard, guilt had been gnawing at her heart like an ant.
When she married Yue Mingyuan, she really wanted to invite her second uncle and his family over. Shen Daqiang was angry and disagreed at first, but later changed his mind and said that he would personally send a telegram to his second uncle to tell him the good news.
As a result, on the wedding day, my second uncle and his family didn't show up. Shen Daqiang said that it was because my second uncle didn't respond.
Although neither of them said it explicitly, they were sure that Shen Daqiang was lying and he should not have sent a telegram to his second uncle.
My second uncle will not fail to respond, and he will definitely not fail to come.
This was not only a regret for her, she could see that her second uncle and aunt were also very regretful, especially her second uncle.
"Silly child, what have you done to us? Your second uncle and I know it's not your fault."
"We feel bad that we couldn't personally send you off to get married, but your well-being is the most important thing to us."
"Don't cry anymore."
Li Shuying helped Shen Zhiqiu up and wiped her tears: "It's getting late, let Xiaowu take you home. Let's talk about how to seek justice for your mother and you tomorrow."
"Okay. Uncle and aunt, you must be tired after sitting in the car for several days. Go to bed early."
The next morning, Shen Zhiqiu called Wan Jiayin and said, "Mom, I want to bring Yaya over to live with my second uncle and aunt for two days. They miss Yaya very much."
"Go ahead. It's a good opportunity to find a pee-bed for Yaya."
Wan Jiayin helped Shen Zhiqiu pack up Yaya's things. Huo Jiusi ran in and noticed something was wrong at a glance: "Aunt Zhiqiu, are you going to take Yaya away from here?"
Shen Zhiqiu briefly explained to Huo Jiusi. Huo Jiusi lowered his head and thought for a few seconds before deciding, "Aunt Zhiqiu, I want to go too. I don't want to be separated from Yaya."
"This..." Shen Zhiqiu hesitated, feeling it was inappropriate, and questioned Wan Jiayin with his eyes.
"Let Jiusi go with you." Wan Jiayin rubbed Huo Jiusi's head: "But Jiusi, you have to ask your grandfather first if he agrees."
"Grandma, I'll call grandpa right now." Huo Jiusi ran away.
Huo Yingnian doted on Huo Jiusi very much, so he naturally agreed and told him to be sensible and not be rude.
"Aunt Zhiqiu, there are so many things. Grandpa said he would send a car to take us there."
When Huo Jiusi came back, he was followed by two guards.
