My aunt is so awesome!
Wu Minyi praised his aunt in his heart, but he still had to keep a smile on his face, "Thank you, aunt. I also thank you on behalf of Xiang Fan."
"You're welcome. My child is too naughty. I need your help to explain to the Yi family what compensation is needed. We will never shirk our responsibility as long as we can."
Zhou Xiang's words made Wu Minyi correct his attitude. "Aunt, Xiang Fan needs to explain this matter to his family himself, but I will pass this on to Xiang Fan."
"Okay," Zhou Xiang nodded. "Do you want to go to the county hospital? I'll ask someone to take you there."
"Then I'll trouble you, Auntie."
"It's not a big deal. It's my duty." Zhou Xiang took out his cell phone and called Lu Zhaochong, asking him to arrange a car to pick him up at Zhou's house.
Lu Yu, a freshman in high school, came here with his father. Seeing Sister Tongtong at home, he happily went to her side and asked, "Sister Tongtong, can you help me with my studies?"
Ling Xiaotong was feeling depressed. Seeing this cute boy who always followed her around and acted cute came to bother her again, she was so angry that her face turned red and her neck thickened. "Go away, I don't have time."
"Ling Xiaotong!" Zhou Xiang frowned. His daughter had such a bad temper.
"Mom~" Ling Xiaotong was about to cry in grievance, "This guy did it on purpose. With his grades, he doesn't even need extra classes. He just wants to pester me. I'm so annoyed with him, so annoyed!"
These words made everyone in the living room change their expressions. Lu Zhaochong asked his son to go to the county town with him, but Zhou Xiang asked Lu Yu to stay because she had something to talk to him about.
Lu Yu looked at his father nervously, and when he saw his father nodded, he had no choice but to agree.
Wu Minyi carefully checked everyone's expressions and came to the conclusion that Yi Xiangfan had a love rival.
After Wu Minyi left, Zhou Xiang took Lu Yu to the study. Amidst Lu Yu's uneasiness, Zhou Xiang went straight to the point and said, "When you were two or three years old, your mother and your aunt Mao made a joke about it. I refused then, and now, I still refuse. Even if Tongtong is willing, I won't, unless your mother and I don't plan to continue being friends. You see, Tongtong's irritable words just now made us both very embarrassed.
Whose child is loved by everyone? Your parents love you, and I love my daughter too. My daughter has a bad temper, and she needs a mature man to tolerate her. No matter how mature you are, you are only more mature than your peers. You have not experienced the sophistication of society and cannot give her a sense of security.
When she gets angry, she won't give face to anyone. If she takes it out on you, your parents will feel bad and have opinions about her. I will definitely take your parents' face into consideration and scold her for being ignorant, but in my heart I feel bad that my daughter can't be a willful little princess.
If this goes on for a long time, not only will my friendship with your parents come to an end, but we may even become enemies. Lu Yu, it's not easy to establish friendship with two families. It's not all right just because you know everything about them. I would rather my son-in-law and daughter-in-law are from far away places. I'm not afraid that their families are bad people. When my daughter and son suffer, I can go to their door with a clear conscience.
So, from the beginning to the end, I don’t approve of friends becoming in-laws, because that would make my children and I live very depressed. You know my temper, so I would rather Tongtong be single until she is old than agree to her choosing a partner from among my friends’ children. Do you understand?
It has nothing to do with feelings or intentions. It's simply because we don't want to be wronged. No one wants their children to be wronged. Don't force it. If you force it, you won't get it, and it will also destroy the friendship between us elders. In fact, because of your actions, our friendship has already cracked."
Seeing Lu Yu's sad face, Zhou Xiang patted his shoulder and said, "Lu Yu, when you understand what I am saying, you will be a mature man."
But by then, you should have been sandwiched between your mother and your wife!
Even though I was thinking this, I still had to continue feeding her inspirational quotes. "Lu Yu, there are seven kinds of suffering in life: birth, old age, sickness, death, meeting with those we hate, separation from loved ones, and failure to obtain what we desire. With my ability and wealth, I'm still enduring every single one of these seven kinds of suffering. So, what do you have to be sad about? This is life. That's why I'm trying to let myself and my children live as freely as I can within my means."
Lu Yu left the Zhou residence like a ghost. Ling Xiaotong looked at her mother in confusion, "What happened to him?"
"Ling Xiaotong!" Zhou Xiang wanted to talk to his daughter about this matter seriously. "You should feel that he is interested in you. I refuse to form a family relationship with my friend because I don't want you and me to live under too many concerns. I have already explained my views and my refusal to him.
So, no matter what he does, you are not allowed to say a single word of concern to him, lest he continue to harbor illusions. Even if you treat him as a younger brother, it is not okay unless he has found true love, then your relationship as acquaintances can continue."
"Ah?" Ling Xiaotong finally understood why Lu Yu liked to pester her. Thinking of having a little brother as her boyfriend, Ling Xiaotong immediately shuddered. She didn't want to live like a family with a little kid.
"I understand, Mom. Can you change the punishment? It's better for both of us if I leave the town, right?"
"No," Zhou Xiang shook his head. "If you don't cause trouble, you'll be free as long as you want. Unfortunately, if you do cause trouble, you must be punished. I have to apologize to the Yi family humbly, and I don't even know how much I have to pay! So, just accept the punishment!"
"Oh." Ling Xiaotong calmed down. Only then did she fully realize that she had really caused trouble for her parents. Who wouldn't want compensation from their family?
"Okay, go back to your room and rest! You should start work tomorrow, so do your job well. If you cause further injuries to others and make them disabled, I guess they will have to use you as compensation." Zhou Xiang waved his hand to send him away.
"Mom~" Ling Xiaotong was frightened, "Can I pay for a caregiver?"
"What do you think?" Zhou Xiang gritted his teeth. "Don't they see our sincerity? Who would be short of money for a caregiver?"
Mom was angry, and Ling Xiaotong pulled Sister Yuanyuan back to the room.
After they ran away, Zhou Xiang showed a cunning smile. This time, the two boys she liked should be able to enter her house, right?
Ling Xiaotong felt a chill down her spine. "Sister Yuanyuan, do you feel uneasy?"
"No!" Zhou Yuan turned to look at her sister, "You're overthinking it, right? Get some rest! We have to do what my aunt has arranged. Otherwise, if she gets really angry, my uncle-in-law will have to take action."
When talking about her father who treated her mother as his treasure, Ling Xiaotong shouted in her heart that the baby was suffering, but the baby didn't say it.
In the county hospital, after Yi Xiangfan was pushed into the operating room, Wu Minyi also went outside the operating room. After looking at Zhou Yan, he started communicating by texting on his mobile phone.
After Zhou Yan learned about the punishment arranged by his aunt, he grinned and said, "You got it easy."
Wu Minyi replied, "Xiang Fan's injury was worth it."
