Chapter 195 Sentimental
Chapter 195 Sentimental
Xu Hui held the old lady's hand, tears streaming down his face, "Okay, Mom, I promise you, I won't do this anymore..."
The old woman, who had been mentally unstable her whole life, regained her senses at the last moment.
Xu Hui, who had been stubborn for most of his life, also achieved self-consistency at this moment.
Although the situation was definitely in He Qiaoyun's favor, she felt very uncomfortable. Logically speaking, she shouldn't sympathize with them, but at this moment, she felt sorry for them.
This season probably makes people sentimental.
She suppressed the emotions welling up inside her and sighed deeply.
Gao Hui beckoned to her two daughters again, as if giving her last instructions, tearfully holding their hands and telling them not to blame her for being biased...
The two sisters-in-law couldn't help but shed tears, whether from grievance or sadness, it was hard to tell.
He Qiaoyun quietly got up and made room for them.
As I stepped outside, I saw Ji Ying sitting on a public bench by the door.
Ji Ying called out to her, "Wait a minute."
He Qiaoyun stopped in her tracks. "What?"
Ji Ying gently patted the chair next to her, her eyes filled with pity, and said, "Can you talk to me?"
He Qiaoyun sat down. "What do you want to say?"
Ji Ying covered her face with her hands in anguish, her voice choked with sobs as she said, "I don't know, I really didn't mean to, I just lost my temper and accidentally..."
In this situation, she can't get a divorce, and she's also suffering from moral and ethical condemnation. She's been in a lot of pain these past few days.
As she spoke, she began to sob, “I went back and asked Xiucheng, and he said that he wanted to invest that 100,000 yuan in the stock market to make money, but he lost it all. He’s still investing it now… I’m so tired. Why did it turn out like this? Why did my life become like this? Why do I have to suffer like this…”
He Qiaoyun didn't know how to comfort her, because if she were in this mess, she would also break down.
After a long silence, she said, "Cheer up. Once the old lady is gone, let's get a divorce. I also bear responsibility for raising such a son."
Ji Ying looked at her with teary eyes, her tone sincere, "Actually, you are a very good mother-in-law, I can't deny that. I was narrow-minded before and misunderstood you. I still want to say sorry to you."
He Qiaoyun forced a smile, "Well, that matter wasn't your fault."
Ji Ying wiped away her tears. "Thank you."
The matter at the postpartum care center was thus resolved, and the conflict between them was also resolved. When they met again, they would no longer be adversaries.
After leaving the hospital, she sighed deeply, hailed a taxi, but didn't know where to go. Finally, she got out and wandered aimlessly.
After years of fighting, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have finally reconciled.
It's so unpredictable.
She never imagined things would turn out this way.
Tired from walking, she found a public bench to sit down. The car behind her slowly stopped, and the man in the car got out, carrying a cup of milk tea, and walked towards her.
He Qiaoyun looked up and saw Liu Biao standing in front of her.
Liu Biao teased, "What's wrong with you? You look so dejected."
He Qiaoyun forced an awkward smile and moved to the side. "I feel a little uncomfortable, a bit down."
Liu Biao tore open the milk tea straw, tied the bottle opening, and handed the milk tea to her, saying, "Here, I heard that drinking something sweet will make you feel better when you're in a bad mood."
He Qiaoyun took the milk tea and said, "Thank you."
The sweet milk tea melts on the tongue, gradually easing the low mood.
She asked, "How did you know I was here?"
Liu Biao said, "My brother's wife gave birth this morning. I came to congratulate him. When I left the hospital, I saw you wandering around looking distracted. I thought something was wrong, so I followed you."
He Qiaoyun told him, "I came to the hospital to visit my former mother-in-law. She fell and is now unconscious and paralyzed in bed."
Liu Biao frowned and said indignantly, "I've heard about this too, but you're already divorced, why would she still be looking for you? Could it be that she wants you to go back and serve her? That old lady always bullied you."
He Qiaoyun chuckled, "That's what I was thinking on my way here, but to my surprise, she didn't, and even apologized to me."
Liu Biao asked in confusion, "Isn't everything fine? Why do you look so unhappy and worried?"
He Qiaoyun turned to look at him. "It is good, but I just feel it is quite sad. Although she is hateful, she is also pitiful. It is not her who eats people, but the ideas that follow her all her life, the shackles that have been firmly put on her since childhood."
Liu Biao stared blankly at her, clearly not understanding what she was saying.
He Qiaoyun gave a helpless laugh. "I guess it's because autumn is here, and I'm a bit sentimental. Just pretend I didn't say anything."
Liu Biao said very seriously, "No, say it again."
He Qiaoyun stood up. "There's nothing to say. You wouldn't understand, and you don't need to." She turned to look at him. "Do you have something to do later?"
Liu Biao shook his head. "It's nothing, what's wrong?"
He Qiaoyun said, "Let's hitch a ride, go for a drive."
Liu Biao immediately stood up. "Let's go."
The two walked toward the car when suddenly a traffic policeman stopped, skillfully took a photo, issued a ticket, quickly affixed it to them, and then left.
Liu Biao and He Qiaoyun exchanged a glance, and then both inexplicably burst into laughter.
As people get older, they tend to become more open-minded about everything.
He Qiaoyun walked over, took off the ticket, and said with a smile, "What do you mean? I'll pay it."
Liu Biao snatched the ticket, saying, "Why should I pay? Do you think I'm short of money? Let's go."
He crumpled the ticket into a ball and stuffed it into his pocket, then opened the passenger door. "Get in."
He Qiaoyun glanced at him crumpling the parking ticket and said, "Don't forget to pay it."
As Liu Biao spoke, he closed the car door, saying, "Don't worry."
He walked around the front of the car, got into the driver's seat, slowly drove onto the main road, and asked, "Where do you want to go?"
He Qiaoyun shook her head. "I don't know. Or if you're going somewhere, I'll go with you."
Anyway, she doesn't want to be alone right now.
Liu Biao laughed, "Then let's go."
The car drove to the commercial street in the university town.
He Qiaoyun hadn't been here for many years. Looking around, she exclaimed, "This place has really changed a lot."
Although it's still a small shop facing the street, the storefront used to be very dilapidated, but now it has been upgraded and renovated a lot.
Liu Biao laughed, "Yes, times are changing rapidly, students' aesthetic sense has improved, and we must keep up with the pace."
As they were talking, someone suddenly called out to Liu Biao, "Hey, Brother Biao, what brings you here?"
"Why did Brother Biao bring someone with him? Is that the boss's wife?"
"This is the first time I've seen Brother Biao bring a group of people here."
"Hey, the landlady looks familiar. Brother Biao posted a photo of her on his WeChat Moments."
......
Liu Biao waved his hand at them, "Go away, go away, what nonsense are you talking about? This is my friend, He Qiaoyun."
He Qiaoyun greeted them, "Hello."
