Everyone in the village could see that Xingguo had no such intention towards Huang Rou, and it was Huang Rou who was sticking to Xingguo, so most of the discussions focused on Huang Rou, and everyone wondered whether Xingguo could withstand Huang Rou's offensive.
On the first day of the New Year, Huang Rou returned to her husband's house. When her three-year-old son saw Huang Rou coming back, he acted as if she were a stranger and remained indifferent, still watching the newly bought TV.
Huang Rou felt upset. The child had never been close to her in the first place, and now the child seemed to not know her. “Zi Zi, I’m your mother, come here.”
"You are dirty, go wash quickly," Huang Rou's mother-in-law came out of the kitchen and said lightly.
"Mom, hurry up! I'm back late," Huang Rou said apologetically.
"It's okay. Whether you come back or not, we will live the same life. Son, wash your hands and eat. We should pay attention to hygiene and don't learn those bad diseases."
Huang Rou pretended not to hear and went back to her room to change clothes, wash her hands and help with cooking. This kind of scene happened every day. She was a superfluous person in this family. Her mission had been completed and this family did not need her.
While eating, Huang Rou's father-in-law came out of the house.
Huang Rou bowed to her father-in-law, who responded indifferently. The family began to eat. Huang Rou and her two aunts would not be back until the second day of the Chinese New Year, so they were the only ones at home today.
"I heard that you were very active on the island," the mother-in-law asked calmly.
Huang Rou smiled and said, "We are going to build an island. This is all done by our family." The mother-in-law must have heard the rumors. In fact, they don't care. They are just reminding her.
"Just do your job. The family doesn't need you to worry about anything. You are still young. We won't stop you if you want to come find us. But you can't take your son with you," Huang Rou said to her father-in-law.
Huang Rou knew that they only cared about their own bloodline.
Huang Rou nodded, "I know, Dad. My son has been with you for a long time. I won't want to take him away. I can't give him such a good life."
The child's grandparents are so well-off and are also very kind to the child. She cannot provide such good conditions, so why should she take care of the child? The child will be happy as long as he knows that she is his mother.
The parents-in-law were quite satisfied with Huang Rou's attitude. As long as she didn't take care of the children, they would not ask their daughter-in-law in her twenties to stay in their house all the time. They were not too old and could raise their grandson and educate him into adulthood.
Huang Rou wanted to be alone with the child for a while, but the child refused to listen to her and kept crying for his grandma.
The wrinkles on the corners of the mother-in-law's eyes became more serious. She took the child back to the house and said, "You only know how to pester grandma. Grandma doesn't love you at all."
Huang Rou is the superfluous person in this family, but if she doesn't come back here, she has nowhere to go.
In her natal family, there were her elder brother and sister-in-law, her younger brother and sister-in-law. She was already married and there was no place for her. She had no choice but to remarry.
The next day, Huang Rou went back to her parents' home by herself. The child didn't want to stay with her, and she didn't want to stay in her husband's house like a nanny, serving that large family.
