"Meifeng, what do you say?" Old Lady Zhao really turned her gaze to Wang Meifeng and asked her opinion on Li Huaihua with a serious look.
Unexpectedly, the old lady brought the topic to herself, and being singled out by her grandma, Wang Meifeng was a bit taken aback, forcing a smile: "Grandma, my mom knows more about this than I do. You should let her speak."
"I heard you persuaded your mom to agree to let your dad go help Li Huaihua?" Old Lady Zhao’s face turned cold, "Do you all think I’m senile, letting you fool around with everything?"
"Mom, it’s not like that..." Zhao Yuying quickly defended her daughter, "Meifeng just didn’t want me to be stubborn, and she really felt sorry for that Li Huaihua. Mom, we really didn’t fool you. That Li Huaihua is really quite pitiful, not as bad as the rumors outside. What she did in the past was forced..."
"Sigh..." Interrupting her daughter’s words with a sigh, Old Lady Zhao looked disappointed, "Yuying, having a good heart is a good thing, but being overly kind is foolishness.
You feel sorry for that Li Huaihua, but who feels sorry for you? You keep helping Wang Aiguo back to her house, and you think people will speak well of you?
This time Wang Aiguo was willing to come to the house, isn’t it because you agreed to let him continue helping Li Huaihua?"
"Mom, it’s not true. Aiguo sincerely wanted to come to celebrate Longlong’s full moon. If you don’t believe it, ask my elder sister-in-law and younger sister. When they came to find me, I didn’t have time to talk to Aiguo privately. He was the one who suggested coming in front of everyone."
"Forget it, you’re old enough now, you should know what kind of life you want. I’ve already reminded you, so in the future, when you cry, don’t blame me for not being attentive..." Waving her hand, Old Lady Zhao took off her coat and lay down, "Let’s sleep. We have to get up early tomorrow."
"Mom..." Hesitantly looking at Old Lady Zhao, Zhao Yuying still wanted to persuade, but Old Lady Zhao turned her back on her, "Enough, the man is yours. Whatever you want to do is your freedom."
Silently glancing at her own mother, Wang Meifeng also undressed and lay down. If possible, she really didn’t want to come. Compared to Chuxia and Zhao Qihui, she was the worst off. Looking at their smug faces, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
However, if she really didn’t come, losing Zhao’s house’s protection meant her chances of changing Loo Ping’s mind would truly become zero.
People like the Loo Family still care a lot about matching social status. If she could shed the tag of a commoner, her chances would definitely increase.
With her mother and daughter already asleep, Zhao Yuying had to swallow her words, took off her coat, turned off the light, and lay down.
Moonlight seeped through the window paper, casting a faint glow. Zhao Yuying stared at that blurred spot for a long time, and just when she thought her mother was asleep, the old lady spoke: "If you feel uncomfortable, just speak out. If you’re holding up in front of your own family, who else can you trust?"
"Mom..." Zhao Yuying’s voice was choked up, "You really understand me." She almost fooled herself with her words, yet her mother brought her back to reality with one sentence.
Yes, how could she not mind?
How could she really want to go and take care of another woman with her husband?
That woman was almost her husband’s bride, and now she is the woman who wants to marry her husband dearly. She isn’t mindless; how could she just help that woman out of pity?
But, no matter how she pondered, she couldn’t think of a better way.
She didn’t want her family to fall apart. After being married to Wang Aiguo for over twenty years, she had already adjusted to life with her husband’s family. No matter how her in-laws treated her, she was already used to it.
She feared divorce. If they truly separated, she would neither belong to her natal family nor her husband’s family. What’s the difference between that and begging?
However, she didn’t dare say these words to anyone.
Because she knew, once she spoke, her family wouldn’t let Wang Aiguo off easily, and finally, divorce would become almost certain.
Wang Aiguo wouldn’t care. Without her, he still has another woman waiting. Whether they divorce or not, he still has another woman by his side, so for Wang Aiguo, no matter how things develop, he has nothing to fear.
The daughter would still be surnamed Wang, and the son would still be surnamed Wang. In the end, she wouldn’t be able to sway her daughter, and her son would surely be implicated by her husband.
Finding such a woman with a trail of dependents, how could her husband spare her son? If her son didn’t want it, all her husband had to do was cause a fuss at her son’s workplace!
Her son was doing so well academically; he couldn’t lose his government job because of her husband.
Moreover, even if the government wouldn’t fire her son over this, once word got out, her son wouldn’t have the face to stay at his workplace.
When that time comes, not only would he lose his job and be pointed at, but even his marriage prospects might be affected. If it really came to that, she’d have no room for regret!
So, she forced herself to endure, forced herself to compromise, and to make her family believe, she forced herself to speak well of Li Huaihua from her perspective.
But in reality, while she was saying those things, her heart was bleeding!
Everyone was deceived by her, only her mother saw through her.
The emotions she armed herself with to the end collapsed in an instant, and tears rolled uncontrollably down her face...
The rustling sounds were particularly clear in the empty room. Old Lady Zhao sat up and patted her: "If you want to cry, just cry. Later, wash your face with cold water, otherwise, you’ll have swollen eyes like peaches tomorrow, and how will you face anyone?"
After crying for a long time, the negative emotions buried in her heart were almost vented, and Zhao Yuying finally responded with a hoarse throat, got up, and went to wash her face.
Upon returning, Old Lady Zhao couldn’t help but sigh again: "You, this habit really needs changing. If it’s not thinking about this, it’s about that. But what about yourself?
Your whole life, you’ve been wronging yourself. When the kids were young, you couldn’t bear it. When they grew up, you couldn’t bear it even more. But have you ever thought about how your kids who care about you feel seeing you wrong yourself like this?
You think Jinsong doesn’t know anything? He’s merely afraid you’ll take a desperate step, so he doesn’t dare say much and just goes along with you. Do you think he feels good about this?
With a son like this, you don’t need to wrong yourself like this. If Wang Aiguo truly doesn’t want to live with you, by letting him have his way, he’ll take you less and less seriously."
