Chapter 61 Old Ginger
"But you're a great cook, very attentive, and good at taking care of people..."
Yan Kui chose to say the most pleasant things.
Hearing her say that, Wei Yin raised an eyebrow and scoffed, "Come on, you're probably cursing me in your heart."
When Yan Kui heard him say that, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. When she saw Wei Yin looking over with deep eyes, she immediately stood up.
"I'm going home. Yan Sheng is coming back in a few days, so I need to pack my things."
Wei Yin grabbed her wrist: "I'll go with you."
Yan Kui was already blushing and wanted to run away, so how could she let Wei Yin follow her?
"I'll be done soon, you can rest for a while," she said, then quickly slipped away, prying Wei Yin's hand off her wrist.
Wei Yin watched her retreating figure and laughed, "Now you know fear."
…………
Yan Kui returned home, collapsed onto the sofa, clutched her heart, and gasped for breath.
"Damn it, I was completely blinded by lust..."
She looked up and slowly touched her lips, which Wei Yin had just kissed, her face turning incredibly red.
"Oh no, I didn't use any of the kissing techniques I learned online. It's all Wei Yin's fault for seducing me and making me forget..."
Yan Kui lay on the sofa muttering to herself, and gradually, she fell asleep again.
After an unknown amount of time, one mournful cry after another came from outside the door. Yan Kui's eyelids twitched, and she slowly opened her eyes.
I put on my shoes, opened the door, and walked into the courtyard, where I saw Granny Wang crying and shouting outside.
Grandma Wang cried uncontrollably, tears streaming down her face, and clung tightly to the middle-aged, fat man's clothes: "My son! You've gone with this woman and abandoned your mother, haven't you?"
"Heavens above! What sins have I committed that my only son would treat me like this!"
“I’ve been living in the empty house in the village committee for a while now. You’re being filial and wanted to come back to see your mother in the countryside, but it’s only been a few days and this woman is already calling you back.”
“Our house has burned down, are you just going to leave Mom alone in the village committee office?”
"Everyone, come and judge for yourselves! Isn't this woman a vixen? She's made my son so infatuated that he doesn't even want his mother anymore!"
The beautifully dressed woman, her face full of anger, said to Granny Wang, "It's not that we don't want to take you, but the houses in the city are only so big. If you go, we won't have anywhere to stay!"
Grandma Wang got angry just looking at the woman: "Why is there nowhere for me to stay? I can share a room with my granddaughter!"
The woman was speechless: "Manman is sixteen years old and needs her own space. You can't live together."
Granny Wang was so anxious she jumped up and down, pointing her finger at the woman: "You...you...you heartless bastard!"
The woman added, "Besides, you wouldn't be used to living in the city!"
The fat man seemed unable to stand the two arguing so much, and a lot of people gathered around. Yan Kui also opened the courtyard gate and stood aside to watch the drama unfold.
"Enough!"
"Mom, didn't I give you 20,000 yuan? Buy whatever you need yourself. I'll come see you again when I have time! There's really no room in the city. I'm not abandoning you, you know?"
Grandma Wang is over seventy years old now. Although she is still very energetic, she doesn't know when she might pass away. She continued, "My only son! I've raised you for so many years, and this is how you treat me? If you go to the city, I can help you cook and do laundry. How am I supposed to live alone in the village?"
Before the pretty woman could say anything more, the fat man spoke first: "Mom, I know you've had a hard time, but Xiaoyi has suffered a lot in all these years of marriage with me. We've been sending you money all along, and everyone in the village is your friend and acquaintance. There's really no room in the city. Once I find a place that's comfortable enough, I'll come and pick you up..."
Aunt Wang was a shrewd woman; she knew this was just an excuse her son gave her. She cried out again, "I understand you, my son. You can let your mother stay in the village, but you have to give me some more money, otherwise I'll always be in a bind..."
Upon hearing this, the fat man turned to look at his wife.
The woman looked grim. Their combined salaries weren't high, they had a mortgage to pay, and they sent money home every month. Now that their daughter was older, there were more expenses.
Seeing Granny Wang crying with snot and tears streaming down her face, I was at a loss for what to do.
"Give it to me."
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the village.
The fat man quickly helped his elderly mother up and comforted her, "Mom, I don't have that much cash right now. I'll send it to you when I get back. You should go home and rest. Don't cry here; everyone in the village is watching..."
When Wang Da Niang saw that her son had agreed, she stopped crying and smiled, "Alright, then you go back first, and I'll live a good life in the village."
Then he glared at the surrounding villagers and said, "What are you looking at? Go back to your homes."
Even Yan Kui, sitting in the corner, was glared at fiercely, thinking: Old Jiang is quite shrewd...
