Chapter 520 Visiting Grandma
Fu Huaiyi: "We'll go back to see you in a few days."
"Whatever, I'm used to it anyway."
"Tsk, so stubborn."
After letting everyone know they were safe, we chatted for a while longer before hanging up.
On the way back, Fu Huaiyi said, "No wonder Lu Jiangting was acting so strangely. It turns out Fang Qing was gossiping and saying we couldn't have children. That Lu Jiangting guy probably hopes we get divorced."
Lin Yuyao also realized that this was probably the case.
"Let's have a baby next year and make him so jealous."
Lin Yuyao: "..." So childish.
"Let the children's affairs take their natural course; we don't bother arguing with them."
"Of course we have to consider it. If Fang Qing can't have children, Lu Jiangting will be childless."
He could already picture himself holding the chubby baby and strutting in front of Lu Jiangting. Lu Jiangting was already mentally unstable, so he'd probably go crazy with jealousy.
……
I tried for more than half a month, but it was all in vain.
The next day, Lin Yuyao got her period.
Fu Huaiyi felt a little frustrated, but it was nothing serious, just a tiny bit.
“The child is quite sensible. Knowing that we will be traveling all over the country for the next two months, he was worried that you would get tired, so he decided not to come.”
He gave himself a good excuse.
Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "That's true. If she gets pregnant, she won't be able to have fun anymore."
"Yes, isn't this kid really sensible?"
They were going to visit their grandmother.
She's getting old and her health isn't good; every time she sees me, it's one less time she'll get to see me.
They carried the gifts they had prepared beforehand and went to Ye Family Village with Ye Lian.
It wasn't far from their house; it only took about half an hour to walk there.
"grandmother."
"Hey, come here, let me take a look."
The old lady held Lin Yuyao's hand with one hand and Fu Huaiyi's hand with the other.
Even at such close range, those cloudy eyes were still unclear.
They see her, and each time they see her is one less time they'll ever see her.
She saw that they were the same, so she pulled them closer to take a good look and try to remember what they looked like.
"This child is so handsome," the old lady said, looking at Fu Huaiyi.
“Our Yuyao is also a good match.”
They both smiled, looking a little embarrassed.
Ye Lian said, "Mother, please sit down and see what they bought for you."
The old lady waved her hand and said, "Don't buy me anything. I'm too old to eat much."
Lin Yuyao: "Grandma, I bought you some clothes, take a look."
"Don't buy any more clothes. I can't wear them all. I have more clothes than I can wear. If I die before I can wear them, it will be a waste."
This is the kind of thinking that people of their generation have; it's both heartbreaking and frustrating.
Ye Lian said, "This is a gift from your children to you. If you don't wear it, you'll be letting down their filial piety."
"Alright, alright, you're both filial, you're both good children. Just this once, don't buy any more. You're still young, you have a long life ahead of you, you have to be frugal and not waste money on me."
Lin Yuyao had heard her mother, Ye Lian, say that the old lady had said she was tired of living and refused to go to the hospital when she was sick, saying that it would be a waste of money and she couldn't get better.
Young people have a long life ahead of them, and making money isn't easy.
If she were ten or eight years younger, she would have gone to the hospital without them having to persuade her to get sick.
But at her age, she knows exactly how much time she has left.
Treating her illness is a waste of money; it's not worth wasting money on her.
The old lady was very interested in Fu Huaiyi, pulling him aside to ask all sorts of questions, such as how the two of them met and how Lin Yuyao was doing outside.
They even asked him what kind of work he did.
After asking the questions, he added, "This child is spoiled by her parents and has never done much work since she was little. She can't do much work either, so please bear with her."
Fu Huaiyi felt something was off and turned his head to look at Lin Yuyao, who was talking to her mother-in-law in the distance.
"Grandma, Yao Yao is very capable. She can do any kind of work, and she does it very well."
The old lady said, "Don't take her side. I know her like that. She can't sew, and she can't cook properly. Years ago, I tried to teach her how to sew shoe soles, but she wasted her time. It would have been better to just buy ready-made ones. She's lazy, I know that."
Fu Huaiyi's lips twitched, thinking that the old lady was probably senile and had mistaken the person for someone else.
He remembered Yao Yao saying that she had several cousins.
far away.
Lin Yuyao asked Ye Lian in a low voice, "Mother, what exactly is Grandma's illness?"
"I don't know. The old lady is stubborn and refuses to go to the hospital no matter what. She says that if anyone forces her to go to the hospital, she will kill herself by banging her head against that person's head."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
"Sigh! Maybe there's nothing wrong with him, he's just old. We asked a doctor from the next village to come and see him. He said that at this age, whether or not he gets treatment is not really important. He should just do whatever makes him happy. At this age, a good mood might be more effective than medicine."
That seems to make some sense.
Ye Lian whispered, "Don't meddle in this. One generation shouldn't concern itself with the next. Even I, a married daughter, get criticized for interfering in my maternal family's affairs."
That's how it is with this generation; once a daughter gets married, she becomes a relative, and they generally don't concern themselves with her maternal family's affairs, which everyone tacitly accepts.
Lin Yuyao: "I won't say anything. It's not easy for me to come back. I just want to see her."
"Yes, it's good that you can come to see her."
As they were speaking, a group of people stormed into the courtyard.
"Lin Yuyao, where is Lin Yuyao?"
Ye Lian turned her head and glanced at them, then whispered to Lin Yuyao, "It's Ye Xiaotong's family. You stay inside, I'll go out and take a look."
"No need, I'll go out with you."
"They'll be here in a bit..."
"It's alright," Lin Yuyao said. "Mother, I can handle it."
Ye Lian sighed, nodded, and said, "Alright, let's go out together."
As they came out, Fu Huaiyi had already confronted them.
Lin Yuyao stepped forward and pulled Fu Huaiyi behind her.
Fu Huaiyi said in a low voice, "I don't know who these people are, but they're acting aggressively and seem like they're here to cause you trouble."
"It's alright, they are Ye Xiaotong's parents, brother, and sister-in-law."
Fu Huaiyi had an "I see" expression on his face.
"Lin Yuyao, you've finally decided to come out?"
Lin Yuyao said calmly, "What do you mean by 'willing to come out'? Haven't I been here all along?"
"Okay, it's good that she's always been here. Now, tell me, where did you take Xiaotong?"
"Oh, didn't you sell Xiaotong? Where did you sell her to? Don't you even remember?"
"You... Hmph, Lianmei, look at your daughter, how can she speak to her elders at such a young age?"
Ye Lian: "My Yuyao is right. Why are you looking for my daughter when your own daughter is missing? Everyone in the village knows whether she was sold by you."
"Ha, you call my daughter's marriage a sale? What? Does that mean your daughter's marriage is also a sale?"
"Pah! I'm not like you. Your daughter was almost beaten to death, and you still sent her to someone else's house."
