(Today is another four Chapters, although it cannot make up for the ones owed before, Si Ye tried her best to write more.)
Or rather, it’s not that there is no urgency, but rather that there are other worries; Xu He’s biggest concern is still herself.
Actually, selfish people, when it really cos down to the crunch, nothing is the most important to them; parents, children, they’re all insignificant. Her own matters are the real matters.
Xu He has been thinking, her father has always been in good health, why would he suddenly end up in the hospital?
Or if it’s not serious, she could just send so money back, no need to go back herself.
She mainly worries that if she goes back, Zhou Yuni might contact Luo Zhiyong and the others, and if they happen to et, it could lead to trouble.
Therefore, after thinking it over for a long ti, she said to Zhou Yuni, "Forget it, I thought about it, let’s not go back. This round trip will cost a lot of money."
Zhou Yuni was already packing, planning to go back right away. Hearing Xu He say this, she imdiately beca unhappy and said, "What money to spend, I’ve calculated it; we just need to spend on the transport fees. Once we get ho, everything is ready at ho, even food is available. Afterwards, we will spend less money."
Seeing that Zhou Yuni’s words made sense, Xu He found it hard to argue and beca annoyed, and simply didn’t bother to talk further, directly saying irritably, "I said I’m not going back, so I’m not going back. Why are you nagging so much, it’s not like we’re spending your money here. Why all the fuss?"
After hearing this, Zhou Yuni imdiately retorted, "But it’s my son’s money we are spending, doesn’t my son get tired moving bricks outside every day?"
Xu He snorted, saying sharply, "That’s because your son isn’t capable. If he were, he would be boss material, would he still need to move bricks?"
Zhou Yuni, dumbfounded by Xu He’s words, paused and then deliberately provoked Xu He, "Xu He, why do I feel like you’ve been acting strange since you had a child? It’s like you’re terrified of us leaving here, what’s going on?"
Actually, Zhou Yuni said this on purpose, without much serious intent, but it still startled Xu He.
Thinking about it, the more it is like this, the less she can let her go back. She didn’t try to stop Zhou Yuni anymore, but directly threw out what Zhou Yuni cared about the most, "Fine, if you want to go back, take Zhuzi back with you. Leave my son behind, my son and I will stay in the provincial city. I plan for my son to grow up here."
"You..." Zhou Yuni was so angry she was speechless. The reason she had been compromising and staying here for so long was because of this grandson; otherwise, she would have gone back long ago.
Knowing that she would not bear to leave her grandson behind, Xu He said smugly, "What’s the matter? If you can’t bear to leave your grandson, then follow us from now on. Whatever we do, you do."
Looking at her, Zhou Yuni’s eyes shot out hatred, but she had no choice but to comply.
During this ti, because Xu He had a son, Zhou Yuni had indulged her a bit, but she found that Xu He was becoming increasingly presumptuous.
If it were before, Zhou Yuni would have already clashed with Xu He, but now she really felt choked up about the issue with her grandson, too scared to speak more for fear that Xu He would forbid her from seeing her grandson, so she could only endure it.
However, inside her heart, she kept scheming that if one day this bitch Xu He fell into her hands, she would definitely make her life miserable.
For so reason, perhaps because Xu He was too formidable and had completely revealed her true nature, after spending so ti following them, Zhou Yuni found herself occasionally thinking about Luo Zhiyong and Fang Pingying.
Actually, through the many days spent with Xu He, she verbally wouldn’t admit it, but truly felt in her heart that although Fang Pingying was formidable, she was much better than Xu He.
If back then, she hadn’t had a fallout with them, she could now be living comfortably in the city like Dashan, being taken care of by her son and daughter-in-law, instead of being ordered around by Xu He every day and even scolded.
Occasionally when she handled the grandchild not to Xu He’s liking, Xu He, in a bad mood, would scold her like a dog. If she dared to make a fuss, Xu He would easily say, "If you don’t want to stay with us, then just go back to the countryside, but you go by yourself. And if you leave this ti, don’t ever think of coming back, don’t count on us to take care of you, and don’t even hope to see your grandson again."
Of course, Zhou Yuni could resist, but exactly what Xu He said, every word seed to choke her throat.
She had already had a fallout with Luo Zhiyong’s side, and if she quarreled with this side too, she might end up completely isolated in the future.
Previously at ho, when Xu He was too overbearing, at least there were neighbors who would speak a few words of justice. At worst, it was still Zhou Yuni’s ho turf where she had a place to go, but now, she truly had nowhere to turn to.
So, now Zhou Yuni always prayed in her heart that Xu He really shouldn’t fall into her hands, otherwise she would definitely make her die a horrible death, she absolutely would!
After Xu He stopped Zhou Yuni from going back, she made a phone call ho to inquire about her father’s condition.
But since Mr. Xu was hospitalized at the ti, naturally Xu He didn’t know the town’s phone number and directly called the Village Branch Secretary’s ho phone.
The Village Branch Secretary also knew about Xu He’s situation. Since he was relatively conservative in thought, and being a cadre accustod to lecturing people, he always felt he had the right to admonish everyone and everything in the village.
So when Xu He made the call and started talking, the Village Branch Secretary sternly lectured Xu He, "Xu He, you’re supposed to be an intellectual, and you should be honestly working and earning money in the city. How can you do such bad things in the city, tarnishing the reputation of Luojia Village?"
"I..." Xu He was taken aback and did not grasp the situation, stuttering after a mont, "What exactly happened? I just heard my dad was sick and called back."
"Your father is sick, very seriously ill, he collapsed, almost lost his life," the Village Branch Secretary continued to scold her over the phone, "It’s because he heard about your matters and got sick from anger. I order you to co back and not only see your father but also explain the things you’ve done in the city."
"Village Branch Secretary, you’re a cadre, don’t talk nonsense. I am clean and clear in the city, who exactly is spreading unreliable rumors at ho." After finishing, Xu He seed to suddenly rember sothing, her expression changed, and she tentatively asked, "Is it possible that Fang Pingying or soone from the Fang Family has gone back recently?"
After hearing this, the Village Branch Secretary paused, then asked, "The Fang Family people also know about these things you’ve done?"
