He was also understanding in front of Han Duomi, and suddenly became very sweet-mouthed. Regardless of whether what he said was right or not, appropriate or not, he started by saying all the complimenting words he knew:
"Oh, I'm so lucky! I've eaten my sister-in-law's dishes in the north before, and ever since then I've been longing for you Jiangnan. Now these are cooked by Auntie. You are a famous teacher and a great student. You are so lucky to have eaten them. I will learn how to eat them from you. Come on, eat them. This is your home-cooked dish. You must have been thinking about it for a long time, right? Lanlan, eat this meat to grow taller. You can have some fish. Your uncle will remove the bones for you."
Han Duomi's desperate attempts to pick up food for Yu Hemiao and tease the two children looked a little ridiculous, but he still pleased Sun Yuying.
Sun Yuying was smiling the whole time, just like a mother-in-law who finds her son-in-law more and more interesting the more she looks at him.
Yu Cheng couldn't stand it anymore and curled his lips: "My mother only has eyes for Brother Han right now, she doesn't even look at me!"
Sun Yuying glanced at him sideways: "What are you talking about? They are guests. When you bring someone back, I will see it the same way, okay?"
Yu Cheng didn't dare to say anything and looked at Yu Sui secretly.
Yu Sui was holding little Tangyuan in her arms and feeding her, pretending not to see his gaze.
Alas, this kid, why does he seem like he can't let go at all?
The family was enjoying their meal when someone knocked on the door.
Yu Cheng stood up and said, "I'll go open the door."
Yu Sui just kept talking to Han Duomi: "Have you contacted your family? It's been so long, your people back home should know that you've been admitted to university, right?"
Han Duomi waved his hands: "Hey! I don't know! I haven't told them yet, because ever since they found out that I've been discharged from the army, divorced, and spent all my money, and now I don't have a penny, they all don't want to talk to me. So why should I take the initiative to tell them that I got into college?"
Just as he finished speaking, a voice came from behind him: "What, you, got into college?"
When Han Duomi heard the sound, he was so startled that the chopsticks in his hand fell.
Yu Sui also turned around in surprise, but it was Ding Lili, standing at the door holding the child.
Yu Cheng still had his hand on the door: "Sister, this older sister said she's looking for you..."
Sun Yuying looked at Yu Sui: "Who is this?"
Ding Lili had already come in, looked straight at Han Duomi, and asked again, "Did you get into university?"
Everyone looked at Ding Lili.
Only Yu Sui was looking at Han Duomi.
Han Duomi was shocked at first, but now he frowned tightly, which clearly expressed his annoyance.
He stood up and looked at Ding Lili coldly: "Whether I get into college or not is none of your business."
Ding Lili took another step forward and sneered, "Boasting! You can't do anything else except bragging. I'm different. Look, this is my son! Isn't he adorable? I'm working in the capital now. What about you? Are you still repairing the earth in your poor mountain village?"
After saying that, she turned to the other people at the dinner table: "You just met him, right? He's such a braggart, oh my god, why did he come here to lie to us? Yu Sui, he and your Xia Lin were born together? Why are you still associating with him? Just ignore him."
Yu Sui was furious, but she didn't show it. Seeing Han Duomi clenching his fists and his face flushed red, Sun Yuying and Yu Hemiao looked at each other. She didn't want to introduce Ding Lili to others at this time as Han Duomi's ex-wife.
Enemies always meet in a narrow road. I don’t know why they are here again.
Yu Sui stood up and led Ding Lili to the door: "Ding Lili, since you are not looking for me, don't talk about my guests!"
Ding Lili was holding the child in her arms and said in a loud voice, "Hey Yu Sui, why are you still speaking for him? You don't know how rudely he scolded me and my mother when we divorced. Anyway, I don't want to see this man again."
Yu Sui simply grabbed her arm and led her outside: "Since you don't want to see it, then get out. He is my guest."
Ding Lili was still reluctant:
"Oh, look at you, you've been deceived by him. This poor man, you're the only one who thinks of him as a friend. You don't know that we're about to get divorced, but he still insists on pestering me and arguing with me. How shameless... Hey, don't pull me in. I have something to talk to you about. I want to talk to you about the nanny!"
At this moment, Han Duomi stood up and said angrily:
"Ding Lili, you are simply confusing right and wrong! You insisted on pestering me. It was you who said that you had a miscarriage because I didn't take care of you, so you had to go to the capital for medical treatment. I went with you out of responsibility for you. Back then in the capital, what did I not do?
You go to the doctor, both Western and Chinese, wait in lines here and there, get your medicine, and even after seeing the Chinese doctor, it's still the medicine I boil every day. Your mother is just giving you orders, but I'm the one who really helps you, right? Yet you and your mother still scold me every day, saying I'm useless and can't get you a doctor. If you have the ability, you can go and get one yourself. Why do you have to pay for a vitamin pill?
I endured everything because you were sick. Because I was still nominally your husband, I spent all my money just to support your health. But when you died, the doctor said you were no longer pregnant and could still have children, and you immediately said you had to divorce me! I heard your mother say with my own ears, "It's a waste not to use me. You chose me because you thought I was useful."
Ding Lili, I come from a poor village, so I've never met a woman as shameless as you and your mother. Since you want to divorce me, why do you keep asking me for money and running errands? Aren't you just trying to rip off my meager military pay? I know it! But for the sake of our marriage, I never said a single bad word until the very end. But you, fearing I wouldn't agree to a divorce, scolded and humiliated me every day.
Ding Lili, unfortunately, I wasn't bragging. I actually got into university. Look, this is my student ID. See? It's from **Teachers College! When I graduate, I'll definitely be a middle school teacher assigned by the government. I'll definitely be able to eat the government food and get a house. I'll never be worse off than you! Go back and tell your mother, don't be too calculating. Sooner or later, all the calculating will come back to bite you!
There was a moment of silence in the yard, and everyone looked at Ding Lili.
Ding Lili's face flushed.
The child in her arms probably felt the different atmosphere, and started to cry with a pouty mouth.
Ding Lili didn't bother to coax him, she just pointed her finger at Han Duomi:
"You! You, you don't have so much to say, why didn't you say it in the first place? Now you are scolding me in front of so many people? You, are you a man? You are a college student, you are so great!"
