When Xiao Cunyu heard Lian Jing's words, he also sat up in shock.
"A daughter-in-law has to get up in the middle of the night to take care of her father-in-law who is still able to move?" Xiao Cunyu found it unbelievable.
The old man is indeed quite old, but he looks strong. Moreover, the Guo family has servants. If the old man is really worried about falling when getting up in the middle of the night, he can just ask two servants to take turns to serve him. Now his daughter-in-law actually does it herself?
Xiao Cunyu also felt that the father and son were a bit disgusting.
"What is your daughter doing now?" Xiao Cunyu asked again.
"After changing into clean clothes, she went to sit at the old man's door again. She was so sleepy that she kept dozing off, but she kept listening carefully with her ears perked up... The old man is old, and he probably gets up frequently at night, so he won't let my daughter get a good sleep..." Lian Jing was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
He didn't know how long this situation would last.
When his daughter was in the boudoir, she was gentle and a shy little girl, but just now... her calm and numb look made him frightened and resentful.
This must happen often, maybe even every day, so my daughter is used to it!
Moreover, when my daughter went there for the first time, she only wore light clothes. It was obvious that she was afraid that wearing too thick clothes would get dirty and cause more trouble. When she went there for the second time, she had to sleep outside for a while, so she wore thicker clothes.
"Don't worry, I think your granddaughter might know something. I will ask her tomorrow." Xiao Cunyu said.
Lian Jing also knew that he could do nothing.
After reporting to Xiao Cunyu, he went to see his daughter again.
The cold wind was blowing outside, and the daughter tucked her head into her clothes, enduring the pain. She didn't know what she was thinking about, and she sighed. After more than an hour, the sound of the bell was heard again. The daughter went in again, and the same thing happened again.
After finally holding on until dawn, Lian rubbed her hands and returned to her room.
But she didn't take a nap, but prepared her husband's toiletries.
Lian Jing was floating in the air, watching his beloved daughter busying around like a servant, and he felt the pain in every bone was unbearable.
Guo Baocheng stood up with a weary look on his face. Seeing what Lian had done, he showed no reaction at all. He simply said, "Your cousin is quite talkative. If you don't want to get into trouble, just find a way to kick him out. At most, you can give him some food. If he's still greedy, spread the news. If he dares to step into our house again, the neighbors' spit will drown him."
Lian quickly said, "He's just a child... Our Dalang has no one to play with, so just treat him as a companion..."
"You're such a kindhearted person. You have so many poor relatives, yet you still dare to say that." Guo Baolai sneered, "I shouldn't have married you in the first place. If your father hadn't married you off out of some favor, would you be living the good life you have now? It's enough for you to enjoy it alone, but do you still want your entire family to share in the good life?"
Lian lowered her head and said nothing.
Lian Jing was going crazy.
"What do you mean by relying on favors? It was your father who insisted on marrying into our family! It was your father who made a promise in front of me, saying that he would treat Qing well for the rest of his life, and you lied to me!" Lian Jing said angrily.
However, no one could hear these words.
Guo Baolai just felt a little cold and frowned: "This damn weather is getting a little colder."
"By the way, your daughter has been so careless lately. She doesn't know how to be filial to the elderly. She refuses to even make a pancake and tries every possible way to escape. You should teach her well. If you can't teach her well, let our father come in person."
