Chapter 17
"Why? You don't want to?"
"No, Mom. Of course I'm happy that you're coming over to help us. But what about Brother and Sister-in-law …" Song Yu 'e was overthinking. Ever since she and her husband got married, her mother-in-law had helped them more than her brother's family.
Now, if her mother-in-law moved into their house to cook for them, how could her brother and sister-in-law not have any thoughts?
"It's okay. I've already told them."
How could the old lady not think of something that even her daughter-in-law could think of? The old lady had already explained the reason to them in detail.
Her eldest son was studying in the military academy. Both of them were workaholics who could not wait to immerse themselves in work. It was common for them not to be at home all day.
Even if she went over, she would not be of much help.
Besides, her eldest son and his wife were good-natured. They would not care about such a small matter.
"That's great. When are you and Dad coming over? We can go over in advance to help pack." Song Yu 'e was really happy that her mother-in-law and her husband could come over.
Although her mother-in-law always liked to nag her, she knew that her mother-in-law really cared about her.
Just like what her mother had told her in the past, with her temper and character, she should be glad that she could meet someone like her mother-in-law.
She did not need to do anything. At most, she would say a few words, but she would think of everything for her. No other mother-in-law could be like that.
Song Yu 'e was grateful from the bottom of her heart.
"Grandma, are you really moving in with us?" Qin Jiao asked happily.
Seeing that her granddaughter and daughter-in-law were genuinely happy, the old lady could not help but smile and say, "Yes, are you happy?
I'll cook for you all day long in the future. "
"Okay, I love Grandma's cooking the most."
"Little mischievous girl, you're the sweetest."
Hearing that her granddaughter loved her cooking the most, the old lady felt that she had made the right decision to live with her youngest son.
"There's no hurry to move. The main thing is that our Jiaojiao is doing these things. After all, Wang Chunhua is an outsider. If she accidentally sees or hears something she shouldn't, it'll be too late for regrets if something happens."
The old lady wanted to clarify these things for her daughter-in-law so that she would not be careless and make a stupid mistake.
"Besides, I don't think she's a good person.
I looked at her coldly. She had some misgivings about our Jiaojiao. If we didn't pay attention that day, who knows what she would do.
This person could be ruthless in the blink of an eye.
Isn't there an old saying? A dog that bites doesn't bark! "
"What?
Jiaojiao, did she bully you?
Hurry up and tell Mom! "Song Yue didn't care about anything else when she heard that. She grabbed Qin Jiao's hand and asked anxiously.
"No!
I didn't suffer any losses! "Qin Jiao was afraid that his mother would be soft-hearted, so he didn't make himself clear.
"This won't do. When she comes from the countryside tomorrow, I have to ask her how she dares to bully my daughter."
At this moment, Song Yu 'e hated Wang Chunhua for being so heartless and ungrateful. She also hated herself for being soft-hearted and agreeing to this matter. She didn't even know that her daughter had suffered such a great grievance.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law's eyes were red and she looked like she was going to fight to the death, the old lady didn't comfort her. She only said to her, "That's enough. Jiaojiao wasn't really bullied. You should be more careful in the future.
When she comes back tomorrow, just casually reveal to her that the higher-ups have been investigating our family recently. Don't say anything else.
You have to control your temper this time!
At this time, there's no need to harm our family because of this person.
Even if you don't care about yourself, you have to do it for Qin Zhao and for Jiaojiao, "the old lady warned Song Yu 'e.
"I understand." After hearing her mother-in-law's words, Song Yu 'e could only endure it no matter how much resentment she had.
Usually, when the old lady was teaching his wife, Qin Weimin wouldn't interfere. First of all, if he rashly interfered, not only would it worsen the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but it would also lead his own child to be 'disrespectful to her elders'.
Second of all, although he thought that his wife was a good person, he had to admit that she often made mistakes in some matters. It was good that the old lady taught her more.
After all, he was already in this position. There were many people waiting for him to make mistakes.
After a moment of silence, the old man asked everyone, "Is there anything else? If there is, then say it all together. If not, then go back to your rooms and sleep."
Seeing that no one spoke, the old man waved his hand and asked everyone to go back to their rooms.
As soon as she entered the room and sat down, Song Yu 'e couldn't help but cry softly.
Qin Weimin, who was following behind her, couldn't help but sigh when he saw her like this. He turned around and opened the door to leave.
When he came back, he had a wet towel in his hand. He squatted in front of his crying wife, who was sitting by the bed and crying sadly, and helped her wipe the tears on her face.
"Weimin, am I a failure of a mother?
Jiaojiao suffered so much in the past. It wasn't easy for her to come back, but she suffered so much in front of me. Am I a disappointment to her? "Song Yu 'e cried as she spoke to her husband.
Qin Weimin was silent for a long time.
Just when Song Yu 'e thought that her husband was disappointed in her and didn't want to speak, Qin Weimin spoke.
"Yu 'e, what happened in the past wasn't your fault alone. All of us were at fault.
Maybe you've made mistakes, but you've given Jiaojiao the most love.
No one blamed you, and no one questioned your feelings for Jiaojiao. "
After hearing her husband's words, Song Yu 'e cried even harder.
After a long time, Weimin said in a low voice, "Maybe Jiaojiao in the past would blame you, but the current Jiaojiao cherishes you and is working hard to love you."
Song Yu 'e didn't hear her husband's words clearly. She asked him, "Weimin, what did you just say?"
"Nothing. Go to sleep. You still have work tomorrow. Don't think too much." Qin Weimin came back to his senses and urged his wife to go to sleep.
"Sister Chunhua, sigh … I've implicated you."
Wang Chunhua stayed in the countryside for two days. After thinking about it, she guessed that she had been scared by Qin Zhao at that time.
She couldn't get used to life in the countryside, so she rushed back early in the morning.
She didn't expect to hear Song Yu 'e say this before she could put down her things.
"Sister Yu, what's wrong? What implicated you?"
"Sister Chunhua, the higher-ups have started to investigate the Qin Family. You're living with us, so I'm afraid you'll be implicated. Sigh … I feel sorry for you." Song Yu 'e lowered her head. She was afraid that if she looked at Wang Chunhua, she wouldn't be able to resist slapping her.
"What?!
What investigation? What crime did your family commit?! "Wang Chunhua didn't expect to hear this.
"What crime did you commit? At this time, whether you commit a crime or not is up to you. It's just that you've suffered."
Wang Chunhua didn't understand these things at all. In her eyes, if a powerful and wealthy family like the Qin Family was investigated, they would definitely be executed and reformed through labor. When she thought of this, she rolled her eyes and said to Song Yu 'e, "Sister Yu' e, I'm sorry. I returned to the countryside this time because I received news from my family that something happened to my youngest daughter. That's why I hurried back.
When I went back, I saw that she was seriously ill. I was afraid that something would happen to her, so I thought that I wouldn't work here anymore. I would go back to take care of her. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to feel at ease.
I came back today to tell you that I'm going back. "
"Sister Chunhua, you …"
"Sister, I'm really sorry. I don't have any other choice. I'm going back to the countryside. You don't have to send me off." Before Song Yu 'e could finish speaking, Wang Chunhua took the things she brought and left.
"Ha, I must have been blind. My kindness was fed to the dogs," Song Yu 'e said resentfully as she watched Wang Chunhua leave quickly.
Three days after Wang Chunhua's matter was resolved, Old Master Qin and Old Madam Qin moved into their youngest son's house.
Qin Jiao looked at the hollow jade ball in Old Madam Qin's hand and burst into tears.
She had been a demon for 2,614 years and a "human" for almost two years. This was the first time she felt like crying.
She guessed that this jade ball was Old Madam Qin's "antique" and it was probably the most valuable thing she had.
She knew the value of this jade ball. Whether it was the quality of the jade or the workmanship, it was the best of the best.
All the jade items that she and Qin Zhao had found added up to less than a tenth of its value.
She knew that she wasn't the real one …
"Why?
You already knew that I wasn't … "
"What? I know what you want to say. Are you going to say that you're not my granddaughter, Qin Jiao?" Old Madam Qin interrupted Qin Jiao.
Qin Jiao knew that Old Madam Qin was telling the truth. She wasn't the real Qin Jiao, but she still felt sad for some reason.
Old Madam Qin's heart ached when she saw Qin Jiao's silent expression.
"I don't know why this happened. At first, I was worried about it. Later, I thought about it and realized that it might be God's will.
How can I blame you for this? You're innocent. I can feel that you didn't have any family in the past. "Old Madam Qin paused for a moment and looked outside before she continued.
"You might think that I'm the only one who can feel it, but how can your brothers not feel it? Your mother is the only one who's stupid.
"Perhaps you don't know this, but that child wasn't close to our family in the past. When she was born, something happened to our family, and we had no choice but to place the child in a fellow villager's house in the countryside. Later, there was a famine, and the family fled to other provinces. Just like that, they lost contact with us. It wasn't until the child was nine years old that your father finally found that fellow villager and brought her back. However, that child resented her family, especially Qin Zhao.
She always thought that we put her in the countryside because she was a girl.
No matter how we tried to make it up to her, she couldn't accept it. Your mother felt that she owed her, so she did everything to make her happy. Even if Qin Zhao was wronged, she wanted to make her happy first.
But that girl wasn't stupid. She knew that I had money, so she tried to appease me.
Plus, no matter what, that girl was wronged, so I tried my best to make it up to her.
But I know that she still hates us from the bottom of her heart. "
