Seeing that the two siblings had something to say, Hua Xiangyun made an excuse that she needed to go back to heat the kang (a traditional heated bed) and left first.
Jiang Yi didn't stop her, as he understood that Hua Xiangyun's presence would make Yang Lan even more uncomfortable.
“You’re still young, and it’s normal to have ideas, but it’s best to discuss things with your uncle and the others, no matter how big or small.” Jiang Yi felt he had been very tactful. Yang Lan had insisted on marrying Xie Dacheng, and almost lost her life in the process.
Jiang Yi didn't think she had a good eye for people; it was better for the elders to help with things.
Yang Lan said, "Your information network is quite impressive. I've only had contact with him a few times, but we'll have to wait and see how things go."
Jiang Yi was getting a little anxious. With such a face full of unwanted suitors, he was sure that they would attract people with ulterior motives.
If we don't stop it, who knows if it will lead to another tragedy?
"What's the situation with the other party?" Jiang Yi just wanted his aunt and the others to not have to worry about these things in their later years.
Yang Lan had protected the original owner since childhood, and he felt he had to repay this kindness no matter what.
Knowing full well that there was a pit of fire ahead, Jiang Yi could not possibly watch Yang Lan continue to jump in.
Having learned our lesson, we must be vigilant and avoid being scammed again.
“They’ve already planned this out. My parents will raise my two children outside the home. I’ll take all the money back with me and find a wife to take care of me. That way, I won’t have to worry about food for eight days. They say it will also save me from having more children and grandchildren.”
Yang Fan said, "I told you, the child lives with my parents, and I can't do anything except pay some living expenses each month..."
Hua Xiangyun sighed, "If we get past that hurdle, things will go wrong." No one expected that Yang Fan, having learned his lesson once, would stumble in the same place again.
Upon receiving the news, Yang Lan made a special trip to the Lin family. These two children were so spoiled that even if the Lin family treated people sincerely, Yang Fan would still suffer a lot if she wanted to be the ex-mother of such children.
Yang Lan said, "He shouldn't rush things. After all, they haven't talked things out yet. He should go back and discuss it with his aunt and uncle."
To put it bluntly, you used to be in charge of your own household, but you sent all your money back to support my two biological children. What did you gain from that? Did you think you could support just one person or one family?
Having never suffered a loss in marriage before, it seems Yang Fan still remembers his lesson.
Yang Fan: "...Ayi, does he know the Lin family?"
They had no children before, and now they have to cover all the expenses for a child. He said he wanted to live with me, but what did he want in return?
Yang Fan nodded haphazardly, then slowly chased after his parents while carrying Jiang Yi. "You think you should be a little naughty and think about it some more..."
That county town is so small; if you ask around carefully, you can find out almost anything, even if you're not too keen on it.
You're so naive, believing everything people say. You almost got kidnapped again.
Moreover, my parents never concealed their actions. Our neighbors who live far away know that I don't have a single filial son. Apart from my own food and drink, I hand over everything else to others.
Does that mean he knows? His salary has to support him and Da Fan, and also support me.
"Sister, would you, as his younger brother, really harm him?" Yang Lan said helplessly. "Besides your aunt and uncle, you're the only one who would want him to have a bad life."
Yang Fan shook his head, "How much can two children eat?"
Moreover, these are two living, breathing lives, my own children. Does he think that's possible?
Yang Lan has given all the necessary reminders; now it's up to you to decide what to do next.
Yang Lan pursed her lips, looked at Yang Fan who still looked bewildered, and asked, "When I gave my parents some living expenses before, did I ever mention the amount?"
To put it bluntly, the two of them formed a family together and supported each other through life. But in reality, they were just looking for a sucker.
Yang Fan: "It's possible, but how could I have done that?"
Yang Fan was a bit dim-witted, but now that Shu Ying had pointed it out, he realized that things were going well.
Shu Ying frowned when she saw Yang Fan talking about the future with such anticipation. "He actually believes that?"
You mean they were prepared to raise children after they got married? He was fully prepared to be a stepmother to two kids?
Lin Shenggen was the cashier at their factory. They had met a few times at work, and he had taken good care of them, so they quickly became close.
"Lin Shenggen's wife passed away two years ago, leaving behind a son and a daughter." Yang Lan did not hide anything from Jiang Yi, and she also wanted to talk to someone about this matter.
Yang Fan said, "...You should wait until things stabilize a bit before saying anything. Ah Yi, you'll have to ask him to help you keep it a secret from Yi Qi."
Shu Ying scoffed, "So you do know."
"How could that be...?" Shu Ying was somewhat bewildered. She had thought you were just unlucky to have met someone you could support each other through life, but it turned out you were still calculating.
Yang Lan was practically accusing Yang Fan of throwing himself at her, but Yang Fan only felt embarrassed. "Did he investigate the matter? Don't talk nonsense."
As soon as Yang Lan stepped out of the house, Hua Xiangyun asked, "Did I tell you everything?"
Holding the child, Yang Fan had an idea in mind. Lin Shenggen described a terrible future to her and also imagined their future, but he was always unclear about the details of the bad life.
Afterwards, you vowed to raise the child alone, but Yang Lan never doubted it, thinking that after suffering a loss once, she would be more carefree, and never expected it to take so long.
“I told you, both of my children will stay with my parents. They’ve been living with you before, so please take Jiang Yi with you when you go…”
"He should tell his aunt and us about that matter," Yang Lan said uncertainly. She was sure that the Seventh Elder would know, otherwise things would be so calm.
Yang Lan said, "I told you, it's up to you what you're thinking. You know it's a pit of fire, but you still insist on jumping in. No one can stop you from doing that."
Yang Lan thought for a moment and said, "Go and take another look tomorrow. If you haven't said anything yet, you should tell your uncle and us."
Yang Lan didn't answer your question, but ended by saying, "Lin Shenggen is an eighth-grade worker. His salary is between 56 and 60 yuan per month. I keep a small amount for myself and give the rest to my parents."
Yang Lan really has a good eye for that silly older sister. I know about that matter, so why would I go and investigate?
If things really get to this point where they can be salvaged, I'd like to bring my aunt and uncle to live with me, so they won't have to suffer any more mistreatment when they see them.
I can shut the two children out of my life the moment I open my mouth. I used to put a lot of effort into Jiang Yi.
Not to mention that the whole family was calculating; otherwise, how could the elders not keep all the money their sons had?
Yang Lan hadn't even guessed what the Lin family would do next, except for that silly older sister who was willing to be a moth drawn to a flame.
People around her advised her to remarry as soon as possible and introduced her to many potential partners, but she didn't like any of them.
