He didn't have a good impression of his ex-sister-in-law, so there was no excitement or anger in his tone.
It was said very calmly.
"You knew she was back? What else did you know? Why are you not doing well?"
Huo Beiming picked up a piece of fruit and ate it while sarcastically saying, "I heard from my brother that she hasn't been pregnant in the past few years since she left, and the man has long been dissatisfied."
"And I heard that the man she's with now seems to have committed some crime and ran back from abroad."
"Anyway, they weren't good things, so I didn't ask in detail."
"Why, sister-in-law, is there something wrong with me asking this?"
Jiang Li glanced at her grandmother, and the old lady said directly: "Your sister-in-law has been hanging around our house a lot recently. I'm afraid she's here to steal the child."
"What?" Huo Beiming was surprised. "It was given to her face, and how did she get in?"
This is the military district’s family compound. This woman is no longer the Huo family’s daughter-in-law, so how could she still come in?
"I don't know either. I guess her friend brought her in before. Anyway, she definitely couldn't get in by herself."
Huo Beiming stood up and said, "No, I have to ask the guard about the situation. This person's purpose for coming back is not pure."
"She doesn't have any children around her right now. Maybe she's coming back to have a child."
"Nan Cheng and Nan Ze can't give it to her. I have to tell my eldest brother."
"You have to solve your own mess yourself."
Looking at the third brother who was about to leave angrily, Jiang Li shouted, "Don't leave yet. Why are you so impatient?"
“The matter has not been thoroughly investigated yet.”
"What if they just came to see if the child is okay? Wouldn't you be causing trouble for yourself by doing this?"
"I'll ask your second brother to check this matter and see what the situation is."
"Once you have found out everything, it won't be too late for you to get angry."
Huo Beiming scratched his hair awkwardly when he heard his second sister-in-law's words. "I'm just anxious. That woman has embarrassed our Huo family."
"My mother was the same way back then. How could she fall for her? It's really a waste of my eldest brother."
The old lady glared at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Your mother didn't know she would be such a person. She already felt bad. No one of you is allowed to mention this matter again."
My own daughter-in-law did something bad because she was too impatient, and the matchmaker was also unreliable.
Who would have thought that even after giving birth to two children and having such an outstanding grandson, she could still cheat.
"Hey, how could my eldest brother be so unlucky to have such a wife?"
"However, she gave birth to two sons for my eldest brother, so it can be considered as making up for her mistake."
When Huo Nancheng heard what his uncle said, he frowned and said, "Uncle, your words sound weird."
"What does it mean to make amends for one's mistakes? Do you know how to use idioms?"
"How can we just let this go? Are all the suffering and contempt my brother and I have endured in vain?"
"Anyway, no matter what she comes back for, I will never forgive her, ever."
He hated his mother very much.
During that time, he and his brother almost became autistic. If it weren't for his great-grandmother and grandparents who loved him and his brother, they might have been bullied to death.
Seeing Nan Cheng's big reaction, Huo Beiming said embarrassedly, "Okay, okay, Uncle San used inappropriate words, I won't say any more, go play with your brother."
"There won't be time to play when school starts on Monday."
Huo Nancheng snorted, "I'm not playing. I want to study hard. My brother and I can't be outdone by my uncle. If you can get into college, my brother and I will definitely surpass you."
Huo Beiming raised his eyebrows and gave a thumbs up, "You have ambition. Then Third Uncle will be waiting for you."
"If you knew that your whole family was Uncle San and I was a college student, you would definitely work hard."
Huo Nancheng rolled his eyes and said, "Virtue, wait until my brother and I grow up."
My third uncle is a weirdo. I don't know how he got such bad luck to be admitted to Peking University.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Nan Cheng, go play with your brother."
"Oh, I see."
Huo Nancheng went up to the second floor, and Jiang Li continued, "Beiming, you have a lot of friends, so ask them about the situation."
"Let's go back and see if what you investigated is the same as your second brother's."
"Don't say these things in front of the child anymore. He's starting to remember things."
Huo Beiming nodded, "Okay, I'll remember that. I'll go out and ask now, otherwise I won't have time to inquire when school starts on Monday."
"Okay, go ahead, come back early, my sister-in-law will cook tonight."
Huo Beiming's eyes lit up, "Don't worry, I promise to be back before dinner."
Just kidding, if my second sister-in-law cooks, I have to come back, otherwise I don’t know when I will get to eat it next time.
After Huo Beiming left, Jiang Li remembered that she had not told her grandmother about the family affairs, and then she said, "Grandma, my grandmother from my hometown passed away a few days ago, so my wedding with A Yu will be postponed."
"What? Your grandma..."
"When did this happen? Why didn't you tell us? We should at least go and see them off."
Jiang Li explained: "We didn't expect grandma to pass away so soon. It was quite hasty at the time, and my hometown is so far away from Kyoto, so I didn't tell anyone."
"My grandmother worked hard all her life, but she passed away before she could see the prosperity of the world."
The old lady grabbed Jiang Li's hand and said, "Good boy, your grandma will definitely be blessed in her next life. I don't know how long my body can last."
"When you get old, you'll have to go through this sooner or later. Don't be too sad."
"Your grandma has gone to find your grandpa, and I have to wait."
Thinking of her old partner, she missed him very much.
If it weren't for the fact that her children still needed her these years, she would have gone to see her husband long ago.
She and her man were in a free love relationship. At that time, letters were short, roads were long, and a lifetime was only enough time to love one person.
She originally thought that the war was over and she could finally be with him forever.
As a result, he was left with an illness that year, so he went there just as his boss became the battalion commander.
"Grandma, my grandma has passed away. You must take care of yourself."
"It is said that having an old man in the family is like having a treasure. You are the stabilizing force of our family, don't you know?"
The old lady smiled and said, "Okay, I'll try to live a few more years. I haven't seen you and Xiaoyu have children yet."
"You two are both so good-looking, and the baby you give birth to will definitely be very cute."
"Even if grandma wants to leave, she has to wait until you two have a baby."
Jiang Li blushed and said, "Grandma, A Yu and I just got our marriage certificate not long ago."
"Haha, you're still shy. Grandma won't urge me. Just go with the flow."
Although she was anxious to have a granddaughter, she also knew that having a child depended on fate, and sometimes the more you wanted something, the less likely it would come.
"Got it, grandma. I'm going to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients. You take a rest."
