Chapter 379 I Gambled



As soon as Sister-in-law He returned, Wang Hongmei immediately complained to her: "That sister-in-law of my aunt is such a bully! She doesn't care about my aunt at all. Does my aunt know how she bullied me today?"

Sister-in-law He frowned: "What did you do to offend her?"

“I…” Wang Hongmei said angrily, “Aunt, who is your relative? She’s the one who’s bullying me. She won’t let me hang up my diapers, and she even made me wash her car.”

Yun Jin happened to overhear this and said coolly, "Why did you make me wash the car without saying a word?"

"Next time you talk badly about someone behind their back and distort the truth, remember to do it in private. I'm not deaf at home."

Yun Jin came downstairs, glanced coldly at Wang Hongmei, and said to Sister-in-law He, "Sister-in-law, please tell your cousin that my car is a precious thing. If anyone spits on my car next time, it won't be as simple as just washing the car."

Sister-in-law He: "......"

Wang Hongmei, who was warned: "....."

After Yun Jin left, Sister-in-law He earnestly advised, "Didn't I tell you not to mess with her? She's not someone to be trifled with, and neither are her daughter or her dog."

“Aunt, you’re my sister-in-law, why are you afraid of her?” Wang Hongmei urged.

Sister-in-law He said irritably, "If you're not afraid, why didn't you argue back just now? Do your job properly. If you don't do it well and get a complaint, I won't take responsibility for you."

Wang Hongmei cursed He Dasao inwardly for being useless, being bullied by a sister-in-law.

Privately, she often spoke ill of Yun Jin in front of Feng Qianqian, saying things like how Yun Jin doted on her daughter, treated the dog so well, and even fed the dog meat.

She also said that Yun Jin did nothing when she came back, and even refused to help hold the child.

Feng Qianqian warned, "Don't let her hold my son. If he falls, it's your responsibility."

Fearing that Yun Jin would retaliate against her and scheme against the child, Feng Qianqian was very careful and never let Yun Jin touch the child. She was afraid that Yun Jin would be like her, unable to deal with adults and would try to bully Xiao Niangao.

Who knew that Little Rice Cake was so clever and wouldn't fall for it?

People, like dogs, would avoid her when they saw her.

They seemed afraid she might hurt someone.

Feng Qianqian was unhappy, but she didn't know what to say.

Mother He knew that Wang Hongmei was a gossip and liked to cause trouble. The first time she tried to sow discord between Yun Jin and her mother, Mother He didn't hold back and scolded her: "My daughter-in-law can do whatever she wants. She doesn't need to do housework in this family. If you don't like it, you don't have to watch."

“It’s none of your business to interfere in our family affairs. Just take good care of the children. If you weren’t my eldest daughter-in-law’s cousin, to be honest, I wouldn’t have let anyone stay.”

After being scolded by He's mother, Wang Hongmei had no choice but to behave herself and keep a low profile in order to keep her job.

I was still unhappy, but I had no better choice but to endure it.

Yun Jin knew that Wang Hongmei had a problem with her, and Yun Jin was wary of her, not letting Xiao Niangao have any contact with her alone. Who knew what Wang Hongmei was thinking? Knowing that she was not someone to be trifled with, it would be easy for her to bully Xiao Niangao.

Little Niangao is very well-behaved and obedient. She basically ignores Wang Hongmei. Mother He also keeps an eye on Little Niangao and doesn't let her out of her sight for too long.

Xiaodoubao and Xiaoniangao are practically inseparable. Whenever they are at home, Xiaodoubao will be there guarding Xiaoniangao wherever she is. When Xiaoniangao eats snacks or fruit, she will share with Xiaodoubao.

That day, while Mrs. He was knitting a sweater for her son, Xiaodoubao, the phone rang. She answered, and He Ziqian's voice, broken and desperate, came through: "Grandma, help! I've been robbed and injured! I'm in the hospital now, and I don't have money for medical bills. Please send me some money, sob sob..."

Mrs. He's expression changed: "How serious is it?"

"I need to be hospitalized." He Ziqian cried, "Grandma, please send me money quickly, I have no money and haven't eaten all day."

Mother He immediately called Feng Qianqian over to answer the phone.

Upon hearing this, Feng Qianqian panicked: "Don't cry, I'll transfer the money to you in a bit."

After hanging up the phone, Feng Qianqian looked to Grandma He for help: "Grandma, I don't have any money on me. He took all the money to buy goods. What should I do now?"

Mother He comforted Feng Qianqian: "You stay home and take good care of the two children. My pension is due this month, and I'll go withdraw it now and transfer it to him."

As she spoke, Mrs. He was about to leave.

Just then, Yun Jin returned and, seeing that He's mother looked unwell, asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

When He's mother recounted how He Ziqian had been robbed and injured, Yun Jin raised an eyebrow and looked at Feng Qianqian. Feng Qianqian happened to be looking over as well, and their eyes met. Under Yun Jin's probing gaze, Feng Qianqian guiltily looked away.

Yun Jin's mind raced: "Was the call from the hospital?"

"Yes, they said he couldn't afford to stay in the hospital and was going to be kicked out." After all, he was her eldest grandson, and Mrs. He couldn't just stand by and watch him die.

Without saying a word, Yun Jin picked up the phone and dialed back. Someone answered quickly, and Yun Jin asked, "Is this the hospital's phone number?"

"No, you've dialed the wrong number." The other party said irritably, about to hang up.

Yun Jin immediately asked, "The man who used this phone earlier said it was the hospital's number, so we thought it was the hospital. Could you please tell us which organization this is?"

The other party laughed upon hearing this, and said in a vicious tone, "You wretched woman, hurry up and transfer the money, or you can expect your man to be beaten to death!"

Yun Jin denied it: "He's not my man." Then, as if remembering something, Yun Jin asked, "Is your place an underground casino?"

"Oh, you've got some knowledge. If you don't want your fingers chopped off, transfer the money. That kid lost over ten thousand; he won't be leaving alive without it."
