According to Lu Wanqin's understanding, Min Weixuan subsidized the Yue family so much because he liked Yi Sirou.
Because the nature of his job requires him to travel frequently, he feels guilty towards Yi Sirou, so he tries his best to financially subsidize Yi Sirou and her family.
...But Lu Wanqin misunderstood. The facts were not what she thought.
According to later generations, the reason why Min Weixuan allowed the Yi family to take advantage of him had nothing to do with guilt or love, but because he was greedy for the emotional value that the Yi family and Yi Sirou had always provided him.
Yes, emotional value.
There was no such saying in that era, so Lu Wanqin could never understand why her son was so confused about the affairs of his wife and his wife's family.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, it is easy to understand why Min Weixuan behaved like this.
Lu Wanqin's husband passed away early, and Min Weixuan has lived with his widowed mother since he was a child.
From childhood to adulthood, I have always lived in a relatively cold and tight home.
Lu Wanqin lost her husband at an early age and lived a hard life. It was impossible for her to be optimistic and strong even if she raised a child alone, as shown in later TV dramas or novels.
In reality, few people can be truly happy. It's good enough if their temperament is not drastically changed by life.
So the less Min Weixuan has, the more he craves for things.
He had never enjoyed a warm family atmosphere, so now he particularly liked the liveliness of the Yi family and the intimate atmosphere of the family being together.
Everyone hopes that the lack of childhood will be made up one day in the future.
This includes the so-called blood relatives that Min Weixuan met when he was a child. They showed their fangs to the young him without any regard for feelings because they were fighting for the inheritance left by his father.
He showed his worst side to the orphans and widows.
Perhaps this is all a shadow for Min Weixuan.
However, the Yi family accidentally healed Min Weixuan's series of childhood traumas. They were kind and enthusiastic in front of Min Weixuan.
She was full of nice things to her son-in-law Min Weixuan, and successfully won over Min Weixuan's loveless heart through flattery and hypocritical concern that was only expressed with her mouth.
Min Weixuan experienced from them the partiality and care from his "relatives" that he longed for most when he was a child, as well as the warm family atmosphere.
This is the emotional value that the Yi family can bring to him.
It was also because of this that he was so willing to satisfy the material requests that the Yi family made to him from time to time.
So Lu Wanqin misunderstood her son's heart from the very beginning.
She thought that Min Weixuan was blinded by his wife's greed and ignored everything to please her, and ran to his wife's family to be a bootlicker.
But in fact, Min Weixuan knew exactly what he was doing.
He was sober and willing.
However, no matter how willing he was, he would still get angry when Yi Sirou pointed at his nose and scolded him like that!
Did Yi Sirou really take him for a fool?
Min Weixuan was so angry that his breathing was heaving. "Speak up! You're making such a fuss now. Do you think I, Min Weixuan, can't support you anymore, or do you think I can't support your Yi family anymore?"
He threw the thing in his hand to the ground again. Yi Sirou thought he was going to hit her, so she covered her head and screamed in fear.
The couple was fighting when Yi Sirou's younger brother Yi Zhiye rushed in, shouting "sister, brother-in-law".
When I walked into the house and saw the mess, I was stunned.
Yi Sirou thought she had seen the wrong person, blinked her eyes and asked in surprise: "Zhiye, why are you here?"
Yi Zhiye: "My parents said my brother-in-law's injuries were serious and he needed to be taken good care of. It just so happened that today my family bought a free-range chicken that a country boy brought into the city to sell."
"Mom said free-range chicken is very nutritious, so she made a pot of soup for us and came here to see how my brother-in-law is recovering from his injury..."
He wanted to use this pot of chicken soup to ask Min Weixuan for some more money, so he left his parents and ran over alone.
Just to be the first to sell good things to Min Weixuan, so that he can ask for money when the time comes.
But he never expected that when he excitedly walked in, he would run into his sister and brother-in-law arguing.
This is just walking into trouble!
Yi Zhiye curled his lips: "Sister, brother-in-law, are you guys arguing?"
"What quarrel?" Yi Sirou's mother Kang Yu heard her son say this when she walked to the door.
My heart skipped a beat.
After seeing the mess in the house, she covered her chest and asked, "What happened? How did it become like this?"
"Xiao Rou, tell me, what's going on? Weixuan is so badly injured now, he can't even get out of bed. Even though he's like this, you're still not understanding? And you're still arguing with him?"
Between her daughter and son-in-law, Kang Yu has always verbally sided with her son-in-law.
Anyway, my daughter's heart is with her parents. No matter how badly she offends them, she can always find a chance to coax them back.
But it’s different with a son-in-law. If she offends her son-in-law, then her Yi family will be the victim, right?
The Yi family will settle this account.
Yi Sirou has long been accustomed to her family speaking in Min Weixuan's favor. If it were in the past, she would definitely stomp her feet and act coquettishly with Kang Yu.
By the way, she told how Min Weixuan made her angry.
Although her family members verbally supported Min Weixuan in speaking up for her, in the end they always persuaded Min Weixuan to give in to her.
She and her family have been working together to gain benefits from Min Weixuan for many years.
But this time it's different.
This time she didn't bother to say a word.
Min Weixuan will never earn as much as those who work hard outside, so why should she waste her time and energy on it?
As for her parents' family, don't think that the incident of kicking her out of the house has been forgotten over time. She hasn't gotten over it yet!
Seeing that her lips were pouting so much that a soy sauce bottle could be hung on them, Kang Yu and her son looked at each other, feeling both angry and amused.
Pointing at her daughter, she smiled and said to Min Weixuan, "Look, she's throwing a tantrum again. Why would you argue with her when she has this kind of temper?"
"You've made yourself so angry for nothing."
Kang Yu didn't feel embarrassed when she didn't get a reply from her son-in-law. She turned to complain to her son: "Your sister is still holding a grudge against me for sending her back from my parents' home."
"My silly daughter is quite vindictive."
Yi Zhiye understood what his mother meant and quickly helped to clear the way: "My sister hasn't turned the corner yet."
Yi Sirou: "What bend?"
"What are you talking about?" Kang Yu said angrily, "Look at how badly Weixuan is injured. How can he be okay without someone to take care of him?"
She coughed twice and said, "I just caught a cold and had a minor illness. Is it necessary for you to rush home to take care of me?"
She thought Min Weixuan was still angry because Yi Sirou had abandoned him and gone back to her parents' home.
I made up a reason to exonerate Yi Sirou.
Kang Yu: "Son-in-law, don't think too much. I am a little bit stupid and I don't think about the details. But I am not without merits. At least I am filial, don't you think?"
