"Yes." Yinhua nodded with tears in her eyes.
After the two left, Yinhua tightly grasped Wei's hand, her eyes blurred with tears:
"Mom...Grandma just said she won't divorce you. Please don't do anything foolish again, sob sob sob..."
As for Ye Peng, after Zhao Langzhong came over, he went back to his room and locked himself in.
...
Ye Caiping was drinking tea in the main room.
Everyone from the main house was present.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Ye Yong and the others went to the Du family's house with the Du family to deliver mooncakes.
As for Ye Daquan, he went to deliver spicy soup and only just returned.
Unexpectedly, when they returned to the village, they heard about the incident and rushed over immediately to comfort Ye Caiping.
Ye Daquan frowned and said, "Wei Siya used to seem honest and simple. She suffered with our family for more than ten years, enduring hardship and eating coarse food. How did she turn out like this?"
Ye Caiping held her teacup silently, and said in a calm voice:
"Some people can share hardship but not prosperity. Moreover, sharing hardship may not be about being able to endure suffering, but rather about having no better options."
Ms. Wei was originally an ordinary person with little experience. She married into another poor family and had become accustomed to poverty.
Besides, even if she didn't want to share the hardships or endure the hardships, she had no choice. She also lacked the ability to change the situation.
When people have money, their true nature is unleashed.
Once greed takes hold, one wants two more, two more, and so on... never satisfied.
Ye Caiping has experienced many similar situations.
The sisters who grew up together in the orphanage were so poor that they only had one steamed bun left, and they would break it in half and share it with each other.
Later, the two started a company together. For a little bit of profit and shares, the sister betrayed her and framed her, all while putting on an innocent tone and face.
People change.
"The second brother is here," Ye Daquan suddenly said.
Ye Caiping looked up and, sure enough, saw Ye Erquan walking in with a worried expression.
Grandma Ye and her husband followed behind.
Just as Ye Daquan was about to start cursing, Ye Erquan suddenly knelt down and slapped his head three times, startling everyone.
"Second brother, what are you doing?" Ye Daquan rushed over and pulled him up. "I know you feel guilty, but you don't have to kneel. Isn't this just making things difficult for you?"
“We all know this has nothing to do with you; it was all that Wei Siya’s mother’s doing.”
Ye Erquan sighed softly and smiled bitterly: "She's my wife, how can it not concern me?"
As he spoke, he looked at Ye Caiping:
“Little sister… I’m sorry! She did such a thing, I should have divorced her… but… she tried to kill herself. She is still my wife, the mother of my children… I can’t watch her die, and I can’t divorce her…”
“I really don’t know how to make it up to you. I will pay you back all the money our family earned from you. I will also give up the shares in the furniture workshop. I will never work in the outhouse again. I only ask that you forgive her this time, little sister…”
Ye Caiping looked at him calmly:
"No need to return it. This was originally something I gave to my second brother. Although you are husband and wife, the one in the wrong is her, not my second brother. I can tell the difference."
"You can continue the toilet business, and you can keep the shares in the furniture workshop. Only the hot and sour soup delivery business will no longer be given to her."
Ye Erquan felt guilty and embarrassed: "I... once she recovers, I'll make her and Peng'er kneel before you, serve you tea, and apologize."
Ye Caiping shook her head: "No need. My second brother will still be my second brother. But she will no longer be my sister-in-law!"
Ye Erquan paused for a moment, then nodded with tears in his eyes, "Okay. Then... I'll go back first."
After saying that, he stood up and quickly left.
Although his younger sister said that her second brother was still her second brother, he knew that because of the Wei family, he and his younger sister could never go back to the way things were.
But no matter what mistakes Wei made, she was still his wife of more than ten years, the mother of his children.
His kindness and sense of responsibility prevented him from standing by and watching her die.
After Ye Erquan left, the old man and his wife sighed deeply.
Ye Daquan gritted his teeth and said, "It's too easy on her. This second son can't even handle her."
Ye Caiping poured herself some tea: "Not everything can be resolved perfectly. Second brother, this is the only choice we have."
Life is full of ups and downs, and not everything can go as you wish.
Sometimes life is like being stuck in a quagmire, unable to get out, and that's what happened to Ye Erquan.
Ye Caiping looked at Old Madam Ye: "Whether it's Mother, or my eldest brother and sister-in-law, they should all interact normally with my second brother and his family from now on. There's no need to worry about me."
Grandma Ye felt that Ye Caiping was being wronged: "Caiping..."
Ye Caiping waved her hand: "It's settled then. I'm a little tired, I'll go back and rest first."
If, after this, Old Madam Ye and the eldest son's family distanced themselves from Ye Erquan, it would be pushing Ye Erquan further and further away.
After leaving the main room, Ye Caiping went to see Ye Jin'er in her room.
Ye Jin'er stood by the window practicing calligraphy, her little face tense. Ye Caiping knew she was trying to adjust her emotions.
Ye Caiping originally wanted to say a few words of comfort to her, but now it seems unnecessary.
...
Ye Erquan returned home and went straight into his bedroom.
Mrs. Wei was still lying in bed, her head wrapped in a white cloth with some bloodstains on it.
She was pale and extremely weak.
Yinhua was sitting on the edge of the bed. When she saw him, she quickly stood up and said, "Father."
Ye Erquan stared coldly at Madam Wei: "Although I will not divorce you, from now on, you are no longer my sister's second sister-in-law! You are not allowed to step into my sister's house again, nor are you allowed to get close to my sister, Jin'er, and Huan'er."
"If you dare to provoke them again, I won't care whether you live or die. Even if the King of Heaven himself comes, he'll divorce you."
