Dabao was stubborn and not afraid of what she said. Instead, he argued with Ye Wei, "I listen to my grandma. She said if there's a shameless person who looks at my dad and becomes obsessed with him, then he's in love with me and is a paying customer!"
This is what Zhang Guifang said to her two precious children before Lu Yang got married.
In the eyes of the old lady, her second son is a hot commodity. He has good conditions, a good job, and good looks. Even if he is divorced, it will not affect his market value.
Which of those widows and young girls out there doesn’t miss her son?
But the Lao Lu family is a respectable family, and they can't accept the shameless guy who is trying to pay for it.
In order to prevent her son from being seduced by the unscrupulous man, the old lady also taught her two precious children to be careful and watch out for any shameless man who showed any signs of trying to get him to pay her back, so that she could go to his house and scold him.
This would prevent a woman with bad intentions from coming in and abusing her two golden grandchildren without being watched.
Look, Dabao has the best brain, the quickest reaction, and the best memory. He never noticed before that the "swindler" as his grandmother called him was staring at his father.
But now he saw his stepmother staring at others, and the look in her eyes was exactly the same as the one his grandmother had described to him before, as if she was about to grow on someone else.
Doesn’t this prove that…
Dabao was so excited that he cried out: "Stepmom is a loser, she wants to be with Uncle Lin!"
With him starting the conversation, Erbao followed suit and shouted, "Ahhh, stepmom is paying for Uncle Lin!"
Bang.
Ye Wei's hands were shaking so much that she couldn't hold the kettle anymore and it fell to the ground. Her face was as pale as paper and her lips were trembling pitifully.
I wanted to tell the two naughty kids to stop yelling, and I also wanted to have a good talk with my mother-in-law...
But after seeing the suspicion and disgust in her mother-in-law's eyes, Ye Wei felt a black screen before her eyes. She swayed twice and finally collapsed to the ground.
The floor tiles were cold, and the moment Ye Wei fell down, she was frozen enough to become conscious for a moment.
And in this moment of clarity, what she heard was not the panic and worry of the people in front of her about her fainting, but...
Dabao: "Grandma, she's just pretending! Erbao used to pretend like this whenever he made a mistake!"
Zhang Guifang: "She's been told her true feelings and she knows she's too embarrassed to face anyone, so she's just pretending to be unconscious. Let's go. Let her pretend if she wants. No one cares about her shamelessness."
Only Erbao, probably because Ye Wei’s recent sweet talk had broken through the little girl’s defenses.
Erbao couldn't finish his words, so he could only point at Ye Wei and refused to leave: "Grandma, Grandma... Mom... Take Mom back with you..."
Just when Ye Wei's shivering heart felt a surge of warmth, she heard Zhang Guifang coaxing her, "Erbao, come with me. Go back and give him some meat."
Without any further persuasion, Erbao had already run home with his short legs following his brother... Completely heartbroken, Ye Wei also completely lost consciousness...
In a daze, she felt like she was in an ice cellar, her whole body stiff with cold.
After finally being moved to a warm place, she began to dream...
In her dream, she became Su Lixuan, eating grapes that Lin Zhan had just washed in a warm house.
Because the grape skin tastes astringent, Lin Zhan, a grown man, carefully peeled the skin of each grape before feeding it to Su Lixuan... no, feeding it to her mouth.
She had never tasted such sweet grapes. It seemed as if the sweetness could flow down her throat and into her heart.
As she was eating, she felt itchy on the back of her hand, so itchy that she wanted to scratch it until it festered.
Lin Zhan took out a cold cream from somewhere and said that she was his wife and he wouldn't feel bad even if she used everything others put on their faces to wipe her hands.
As he said this, he carefully tried to help her wipe it.
Just as Ye Wei smiled sweetly and reached out her hand, Lin Zhan in front of her suddenly stopped. She heard Lin Zhan say -
"You are not my wife. My wife doesn't have frostbite on her hands. You are not destined to be a housewife. If you want to apply cold cream, go find your own man and don't bother with me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Zhan in front of him turned into Lu Yang in a second.
The nightmare is coming!
Lu Yang frowned and pointed at a pile of clothes that had appeared on the ground at some point.
In a commanding tone, he said, "Hurry up and wash these. They're piling up like a mountain, no matter how lazy you are."
Ye Wei was shocked and frightened, and she explained incoherently that she had frostbite on her hands, but Lu Yang in front of her not only did not show any sympathy, but also did not have any expensive hand oil or cream.
Instead, he looked at her with disgust and accused her of not being able to do such a small thing.
Lu Yang: "I married you just to let you enjoy life? Besides, I let you enjoy less than you deserve."
"Isn't this the life you wanted? The life you'd rather live than marry someone else and be scolded by so many people. Isn't this what you asked for?"
"Stop wasting time and wash the clothes quickly. Your hands aren't rotten yet. They're itchy anyway, so just cool them down with cold water. Hurry up!"
"After that, I have to give Dabao and the others a bath. It just so happens that we need to heat up the water for a bath, so your frozen hands can be warmed up..."
Ye Wei: "I don't want it, I don't want it... I don't want to do this... You change it back, no, I change it back... Lin Zhan..."
Huang Li: "Wake up, what Lin Zhan?"
Feeling a slap on the face, Ye Wei was so frightened that she suddenly woke up from her dream and opened her eyes suddenly!
"Oh my God, I was scared to death." Huang Li was so frightened by her daughter that she withdrew her hand, took two steps back, and almost stumbled and fell on the bed next to her.
"mom?"
Ye Wei looked at Huang Li in disbelief, wondering if she was still dreaming: "You came to see me?"
It's impossible. How could her mother-in-law be willing to let her mother come over? Even if she wanted to go back to her parents' home, her mother-in-law wouldn't agree because she looked down on her parents.
Hearing her daughter's silly question, even the hardest-hearted Huang Li felt a pang of pain.
Her nose was sore: "Silly girl, look where you are?"
"If a neighbor from your compound hadn't happened to pass by and spotted you unconscious on the ground and quickly called someone to take you to the hospital, you would have frozen to death in this awful weather if you'd fainted again outside at several o'clock."
Huang Li got angry when she mentioned this. She cursed, "Your in-laws are really a bunch of crap. You're such a grown-up, and you haven't been seen for a long time, and they didn't even bother to come out and look for you."
"You conscienceless bastard!"
"And how long has it been since your neighbors brought you to the hospital? You live in the same courtyard, so they should have heard something, right? But in all this time, not a single person has come!"
Her relatives from her mother's family who lived far away all rushed over, but no one from the Lu family showed up. Not to mention what her daughter thought, even Huang Li herself was heartbroken when she saw it.
While her mother was crying, Ye Wei finally woke up.
Hearing this, she smiled bitterly and said, "Of course they won't come. They just pissed me off and made me faint. When I fainted, they just threw me outside. Why would they come to the hospital to settle the bill now?"
She knew her mother-in-law very well.
