Yao Qiyue's expression was calm, but what she said made Jiang's mother feel cold.
Jiang Jie was still waiting at the Public Security Bureau for her to return with the letter of apology.
At this moment, she regretted offending Yao Qiyue.
Wu Guoliang's eyes turned red with anger at Yao Qiyue's stubborn attitude.
"Yao Qiyue, how can you talk to your mother like that?"
"Do you still respect us elders?"
"Look at what you've done to your mother. You're just asking her to write a letter of apology, but why are you so aggressive?"
Zhao Meijuan put on a sullen face and reached out to help Jiang's mother up.
Jiang's mother leaned on Zhao Meijuan and kept wiping away her tears.
Although Director Li didn't know what happened in Yao Qiyue's home, she knew that the Public Security Bureau had come to take Yao Qiyue's statement.
She felt overwhelmed as she looked at Wu Guoliang, who was crying heart-wrenchingly and glaring at her.
Today, Secretary Zhang went to help her neighbors resolve a dispute, and she was the only one idle person in the street office.
She walked over to Yao Qiyue and stood beside her, then asked the sobbing Jiang's mother, "What's going on? Why are you still making trouble at the Yao family?"
"Didn't we agree last time that you're not allowed to come again?"
The last time Zhao Meijuan was kicked away by Yao Qiuyue, she went home and stayed in bed for several days. Now she still feels a stomachache when she thinks about it.
When she thought of the five dollars given by Jiang's mother, she felt that even if she was beaten today, it would be no big deal. She could also expose Yao Qiyue's crazy side in front of the neighbors.
She raised her neck and said loudly: "We are not here to cause trouble. Didn't you see that my elder sister-in-law knelt down and begged for forgiveness?"
"What else do you want? Force me to hang myself with a hemp rope at the Yao family's house?"
Secretary Li frowned impatiently. Why was this female comrade being so unreasonable?
"As an elder, you kneel down before a younger generation. Isn't that like putting a knife to Yao Qiyue's neck and asking her to forgive you?"
"You're not really apologizing, you're just forcing her to forgive you!"
Secretary Li is not a foolish person. She has seen many of Jiang's mother's tricks.
She had seen mothers-in-law who were even more hypocritical than Jiang's mother, and had dealt with many women who cried, made a fuss, and even threatened to hang themselves.
Her daily job is to deal with the trivial matters in the homes of her neighbors.
Will she fall for Jiang's mother's tricks?
Secretary Li, wearing a red armband, pinched her waist and said, "Since you've come to ask Yao Qiyue to write a letter of apology, why don't you tell everyone what Yao Qiyue wants to be forgiven for?"
"I'm telling you, you can fool others, but you're not good enough to fool me."
Yao Qiyue was protected by Director Li behind her, and her heart suddenly felt warm.
At this moment, she felt that after traveling through time, there were not only bad people, but also some good people who would protect her.
For example, Aunt Meng next door and Secretary Li.
Xiaobao broke free from Jiang Mei's arms, ran to Yao Qiyue and hugged her head.
"You are not allowed to bully my mother."
Mother Jiang looked at the angry Xiaobao in disbelief.
Yao Qiyue used to beat and scold Xiaobao often. How long has it been since he moved to the Yao family, and he has become so siding with Yao Qiyue?
"Xiaobao, I'm your grandmother. I didn't bully your mother."
"I'm just begging you to let your uncle go. Your uncle is only twelve years old this year. He's suffered a lot over the years, and people have been calling him a little fool behind his back. I know everything."
"Xiao Jie finally regained consciousness, but he was wrongly accused of being a kidnapper."
"Mom is really begging you, please save Xiaojie. I'll do anything you ask me to do."
Yao Qiyue reached out and picked up Xiaobao. Listening to Jiang's mother's tearful words, many soft-hearted neighbors began to persuade her.
"July, if you're really wronged, just write a letter of apology. After all, we're all family."
Aunt Meng sighed. Her youngest son was about the same age as Jiang Jie. She was also moved when she heard Jiang's mother's sincere prayer.
We are all mothers. Even if we have done something wrong in the past, we can still sacrifice our reputation for the sake of our children.
"July, it's not easy for your mother to raise a silly child to this age."
"No, just forgive her this time!"
Xiaobao was so scared that she burst into tears. She was afraid that so many people would bully Yao Qiyue. Even though she was held in Yao Qiyue's arms, she was still grabbing her clothes nervously.
Yao Qiyue felt the uneasiness of the little guy in her arms, and patted his little head gently. The caress made Xiaobao gradually relax.
She didn't want to get entangled any more.
"You can agree to any condition you say, right?"
When Jiang's mother heard what Yao Qiyue said, hope appeared in her eyes. As long as she could coax Yao Qiyue into signing the letter of understanding, it was not certain whether she could do what she promised.
She thought so in her heart, with a hint of calculation in her eyes.
Yao Qiyue saw it clearly, but she was not afraid.
Jiang's mother nodded and said in a generous manner, "Don't worry, as long as you write a letter of understanding, I will agree to any conditions you ask."
Yao Qiyue nodded and said, "I won't make it difficult for you. From now on, Xiaobao will change his surname to Yao, and he will have nothing to do with your Jiang family."
Mother Jiang was stunned when she heard this. She didn't care whether Xiaobao's surname was Jiang or Yao.
She didn't expect that what Yao Qiyue mentioned was so simple.
Even if Xiaobao changes his surname to Yao, does that mean he is no longer a child of the Jiang family?
Yao Qiyue is still young and too naive.
How can blood ties be easily severed just because of a name?
She agreed very readily, fearing that Yao Qiyue would regret it: "Okay, Mom promises you."
Yao Qiyue turned to look at Secretary Li and said, "Secretary Li, could you please issue me a certificate? I want to change Xiaobao's name to Yao."
Secretary Li opened her mouth and she thought this was a good idea.
Jiang's mother didn't expect Yao Qiyue to be so anxious, and her face looked a little ugly.
"July, how about writing a letter of apology first and then changing your last name?"
"Xiao Jie hasn't been able to eat or sleep well in the Public Security Bureau. Mom is really worried. We can change his name in a little while."
Jiang's mother was so calculating that the beads were about to bounce onto Yao Qiyue's face. She looked at Jiang's mother's shrewd face and asked sarcastically, "Are you sure you can still agree to let me change Xiaobao's surname even if I write a letter of understanding?"
"Wu Meiyue, do you think you are the only smart person in this world and everyone else is a fool?"
"Either change your last name now, or I will never write a letter of understanding."
"Oh, by the way, I can sue Jiang Jie. Do you want to try?"
Jiang's mother looked embarrassed. She didn't dare to provoke Yao Qiyue again. She could only be patient and beg for mercy in a soft voice: "Qiyue, Mom didn't mean that. You can change Xiaobao's last name first."
"Let's go to the street office to get a certificate now."
Yao Qiyue ignored Jiang's mother's flattery. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have done it in the first place. Jiang Jie deserved it.
Secretary Li worked very quickly. He returned to the street office and directly issued a household registration certificate and handed it to Yao Qiyue.
