Chapter 752 This Couple
"Have you heard? He married that widow Fang, and then divorced her. That widow Fang lied to him. The child he had his eye on wasn't his friend's, but rather Fang Qing's child from her affair, the child of her lover."
"I heard about it. It's disgusting. Even a rabbit won't eat the grass near its burrow. Widow Fang is worse than livestock."
"Lu Jiangting has gone mad for something like this."
"Wouldn't that drive you crazy? If it were me, I'd go crazy too."
"Widow Fang is in jail, and he still has to raise that child. This is simply killing him and breaking his spirit."
"It's a good thing Yuyao didn't marry him, otherwise she would have suffered along with him."
"Where did that kid go just now?"
"It seems to be Yuyao's family."
"Hehe, he must be regretting it to death. Unfortunately, there's no medicine for regret in this world, so even if he regrets it to death, it's no use."
Everyone chimed in with their own comments, getting more and more excited as they talked.
Back then, Lu Jiangting was considered someone else's child in the nearby villages.
Everyone was envious, and of course, jealous.
Seeing a once-promising child fall from grace always brings a secret sense of satisfaction.
……
Fu Huaiyi returned and had a brief chat with Lin Yuyao about Lu Jiangting.
“This guy is getting crazier and crazier, and he hasn’t taken his medicine again…” He paused for a moment, then said, “Let’s leave early tomorrow, at dawn.”
"You booked a ticket for noon."
"Then let's go to the city for a stroll."
"Also."
Lin Yuyao waved the spatula, signaling Fu Huaiyi to start the fire.
As a result, his fire control skills were too poor, and the fire went out again in a short while.
Seeing Lin Yuyao's helpless expression, he quickly buried his head and started blowing.
As a result, the force was too great, and sparks flew out.
Seeing the sparks fly into the pile of firewood and ignite instantly, Lin Yuyao was terrified and quickly scooped up water to splash on it.
Fu Huaiyi's face turned pale. "Yaoyao, I...did I cause trouble?"
Lin Yuyao watched the sparks go out and let out a breath.
"It's alright, you almost caused trouble."
Fu Huaiyi stood to one side looking helpless, like a student who had made a mistake.
Lin Yuyao chuckled and pulled him aside.
"Young Master, please sit here, I'll take care of you."
Fu Huaiyi has actually learned to cook, and he has no problem cooking in the city.
He really can't handle this kind of earthen stove in the countryside.
He sat to one side watching Lin Yuyao tend the fire and wield the spatula.
Although it looked busy, everything was done in an orderly manner, and soon the steaming hot food was served.
The two ate dinner together and then tidied up the house together.
Since I'm leaving tomorrow, I should tidy up the house properly.
After cleaning up her dirty clothes, Lin Yuyao boiled a pot of water for Fu Huaiyi to take a bath.
He had just entered the bathroom behind the house when Lin Yuyao suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Lin Yuyao paused for a moment, wondering who it could be at this late hour.
Perhaps something has happened to the villagers?
Lin Yuyao came out of the house and saw the person outside the fence gate, but she didn't recognize him at first.
"You are……?"
Where is Chen Xia?
Ok?
Lin Yuyao only realized what was happening when she heard her sister-in-law call her by her name.
They are my sister-in-law's parents.
Lin Yuyao had only met him once, and it was late at night and she couldn't see very clearly, so she didn't recognize him at first.
"She hasn't come back. What do you want with her?"
"She didn't come back? Didn't your grandmother pass away? Such a big thing and she didn't come back?"
Lin Yuyao gave her a cold look and said indifferently, "Thanks to you, Yan Yan's health has deteriorated because of your actions, so neither my sister-in-law nor Yan Yan can come back."
"What do you mean Yan Yan is bad because of us? That's all Chen Xia and your mother's fault. They spoiled her and made her so delicate. She gets sick all the time."
What? They have the nerve to blame someone for being sick?
Lin Yuyao crossed her arms and said coldly, "If you hadn't caused my sister-in-law to have a premature birth, would she be in such poor health? If you hadn't stolen Yan Yan last time, would she be sick?"
"Hey, can't you talk properly? What do you mean by stealing? We are the child's maternal grandparents. The grandparents want to see the child and have him stay at their home for a few days. How can that be called stealing?"
“It’s stealing. You took it without my sister-in-law’s permission, that’s stealing.” Lin Yuyao didn’t want to argue with them anymore, and her tone became very sharp.
"Hey, you... why are you saying such awful things? Even if Yan Yan is alright, it's none of your business. He's our grandson. What right do you, as his aunt, have to interfere?"
Lin Yuyao was shocked. How could they say such a thing?
They've never treated this child well in either of their lives. In her previous life, they even forced her to have an abortion.
Before Lin Yuyao could say anything, Chen's father continued, "A sickly child is useless even if you raise him. It's better to give him to another family to raise, and they can have another one."
what?
This also completely shattered her worldview.
"She's not even as good as her sister's daughter."
Oh, after hearing what he said, Lin Yuyao finally understood.
In their eyes, only sons have the right to inherit, but grandsons are definitely not as precious as their sons.
Does this mean that if the eldest brother and sister-in-law have a daughter, their family fortune will ultimately be inherited by their son?
No wonder those two old men were so determined to steal Yan Yan away, even saying they'd give him away.
Lin Yuyao sneered, "You think you can be a grandfather? With skin so thick, you might as well use it to build the city wall."
"What...what kind of talk is that?"
“I’m speaking human language, only humans can understand it.” Not wanting to argue with them anymore, he said, “My sister-in-law isn’t back, and you’re not welcome in our home, so I won’t open the door for you.”
She didn't open the door, but just stared at them through the fence.
Upon seeing Lin Yuyao about to enter the house, the other person pounded on the fence gate and said urgently, "It's fine if Chen Xia hasn't come back, but call your older brother back. You can't exactly say that your older brother hasn't come back either, can you?"
"I'm sorry, my older brother left this afternoon."
"what?"
"If you don't believe me, go ask my parents and my older brother. Did they leave this afternoon?"
The two were stunned.
When they learned the news, the old lady had indeed been dead for several days.
Fearing they wouldn't make it in time, they rushed over at night with flashlights, but they were still too late.
"What should we do?" the old lady asked the old man.
The old man lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Go next door and ask the neighbors if what that brat said is true."
Lin Yuyao had already gone inside when Fu Huaiyi returned from the backyard. He asked, drying his wet hair, "Who is it?"
Lin Yuyao said, "It's my sister-in-law's parents who have come."
Fu Huaiyi was taken aback. "The one who stole the child?"
"Yes."
"What are they doing here so late?"
“It can’t be anything good. They’re looking for my sister-in-law and my brother. I told them my brother left and my sister-in-law hasn’t come back.”
Lin Yuyao found some clean clothes and said, "I'm going to take a shower."
"Okay, hurry up and go, the bathroom is still warm."
