The smile on Lu Shufang's face froze instantly, and a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, "Prepare? Prepare for what? I see you just don't want me to stay! Ah Cheng has already agreed, but you are talking nonsense here."
Lu Cheng hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over: "Sister, Yuexi didn't mean that. She was just worried about your daily life...
Lu Shufang didn't listen to Lu Cheng's explanation at all. She interrupted him and raised her voice, "Don't use these excuses to perfunctorily deal with me. I think the third sister-in-law just doesn't want me, a down-and-out sister, to disturb your good life!"
Lin Yuexi stopped pampering her when she heard this. "You're right. I just don't want you to live in my house. What? Do you want to force me to live in my house?"
Lu Shufang was so angry at Lin Yuexi's straightforward response that she trembled all over. She pointed at Lin Yuexi and was speechless for a long time.
Lu Cheng was caught in the middle, feeling anxious and helpless, his forehead instantly covered with sweat. He reached out his hand to comfort his elder sister, while trying to dissuade Lin Yuexi, but he didn't know where to start.
"You...how can you say that!" Lu Shufang recovered and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Ah Cheng, look at her. This is the good wife you married! I suffered so much injustice in my husband's house that I sought shelter in my brother's house, but she is so heartless!"
Seeing Lu Shufang like this, Lin Yuexi knew that she absolutely could not let her move in. As long as she moved in, she would never be able to live a comfortable life for a single day.
"Lu Shufang, you have to understand that you suffered injustice at your husband's house, not at my place. So go and vent your anger wherever you are, and don't come to me and act like a big shot.
Also, you have helped your brother, but not me, so you are asking for your brother's protection, not mine.
Now I want to tell you, this house was bought by me, not your brother. If you want to move in, you must get my consent..." Lin Yuexi said with a sneer.
When Lu Shufang heard Lin Yuexi's words, her face turned pale and blue. She never expected Lin Yuexi to be so tough and say such things.
"You...you are disregarding the friendship between me and Lu Cheng!" Lu Shufang turned to Lu Cheng abruptly, her eyes full of disappointment and anger, "Ah Cheng, you just let her bully me like this? Let her trample on our family relationship like this?"
Seeing Lin Yuexi was angry, Lu Cheng knew that if this continued, it would definitely affect their relationship, so he quickly said, "Yuexi, that's not what my elder sister meant. She just came to see me, eat a meal and leave..."
After Lu Cheng finished speaking, he pulled Lu Shufang aside and said, "Sister, I know it's not easy for you, but it's even harder for Yuexi. Besides, this house was indeed bought by her. If we get divorced, I'll be the one to leave. You don't want to see your brother move out of this courtyard, do you?"
"Third brother, are you serious? You lied to me because you don't want to take care of me..."
Lu Shufang would never believe that Lin Yuexi had so much money to buy a house.
It must be that my third brother lied to me just to please Lin Yuexi. I don't know what kind of magic potion this bitch gave him to make my third brother ignore his parents, brothers and sisters and be so devoted to her.
Lu Cheng looked at Lu Shufang's face full of doubts, his expression became particularly serious, and he said word by word: "Sister, how could I lie to you. I only have a 60 yuan allowance, how can I afford such a nice courtyard house.
The money for this courtyard house was paid by her for teaching acupuncture at Beijing City Hospital. To thank her, the dean gave her 5,000 yuan as a teacher's fee. Yuexi's medical skills are very good. Not only did she cure my leg, she also accompanied me through the most difficult time.
Sister, Yuexi is right, you are asking me for help, not her.
Besides, your in-laws’ problems can’t be solved overnight. If you don’t want to go back these two days, I’ll send you to a guesthouse to stay for a few days, and I’ll pay for it…”
Seeing what Lu Cheng said, Lu Shufang knew that it would be impossible for her to move in today, so she said, "Okay! In that case, I won't stay at your house, but you have to let me stay for dinner before you leave!"
"Big sister, of course. Didn't Yuexi invite you to dinner just now?"
Seeing that Lu Shufang no longer insisted on living at home, Lu Cheng finally felt relieved.
He quickly said to her, "Sister, I'm glad you understand. Yuexi is not stingy, it's just that this happened so suddenly, we all need time to adapt. Come on, go sit in the living room for a while and wait for Aunt Zhang to prepare the food and bring it out."
Lu Shufang followed Lu Cheng to the living room, sat on the sofa, and looked around with a somewhat uncomfortable look.
Seeing that Lu Cheng and Lu Shufang had been chatting for so long and ended up sitting down on the sofa, Lin Yuexi was about to get angry.
Seeing this, Lu Cheng quickly pulled Lin Yuexi to the master bedroom, closed the door and said softly, "Yuexi, I know that my elder sister went too far today! In fact, I didn't mean to let her live at home.
It’s just that my mother never liked me since I was a child, and I was completely raised by my eldest sister, so we have a deep friendship.
I have just persuaded her, and she said she would leave after dinner."
Seeing Lu Cheng say this, Lin Yuexi finally felt relieved and said, "Lu Cheng, you also know what kind of life I had in your Lu family before. Now that I have finally lived a good life, I don't want others to disturb my life again."
"I know, I know, Yuexi, you have suffered... I will handle my sister's affairs myself and will never let her point fingers in front of you, okay?" Lu Cheng said quickly.
"Zi Yan, where is Xiyun?" Lin Yuexi asked.
"They have been brought back. They are doing homework in the room," said Lu Cheng.
At this moment, Aunt Zhang called out from outside, "Sir, the wife is ready to eat..."
The two came to the restaurant and the atmosphere was a little solemn.
Lu Shufang looked at the table full of delicious dishes and her eyes began to light up, but she could only sit down in silence.
Lin Yuexi and Lu Cheng looked at each other and tried their best to act natural.
During the meal, Lu Shufang suddenly said, "Yuexi, I was sorry for you before. I didn't help you much when you were wronged in the Lu family."
Lin Yuexi was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Lu Shufang to apologize suddenly.
She put down her bowl and chopsticks and said softly, "Sister, let's not talk about the past. Let's look forward."
Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Lu Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled to smooth things over: "That's right, sister, Yuexi is right, we all have to look forward."
At this time, Zi Yan and Xi Yun finished their homework and came to the restaurant skipping.
Zi Yan and Xi Yun had met Lu Shufang before, but there was still a wary gleam in the eyes of the two boys. The few years of living in the Lu family's kitchen had made them full of hostility towards the Lu family.
Their eyes looked at Lin Yuexi from time to time, hoping that Lin Yuexi could tell them whether this aunt could be trusted.
Lin Yuexi caught the uneasiness in the children's eyes. She smiled and waved to Zi Yan and Xi Yun, and said softly: "Zi Yan, Xi Yun, come and sit down. Your aunt is just here to see your father and you..."
