Chapter 65: It

The Chen family in Changping.

Yan Qingshuang hurried into the courtyard with her bag and saw her eldest daughter-in-law, Miao Xiaohe, in the yard: "Xiaohe, your grandfather hasn't gone out, has he?"

Miao Xiaohe pointed to the backyard: "No, he’s in the backyard."

Yan Qingshuang walked quickly toward the backyard and saw the old man making a seedling bed: "Dad, are you planning to go to Liu Tree Village in the next few days?"

The old man was busy with his work and didn't even look up: "Yes."

Yan Qingshuang didn't care that the freshly turned soil would dirty her newly bought leather shoes and walked over in a few steps: "Dad, I just got news that Liu Shanliang injured his leg and went to the city for treatment. He’s not at home, so those gifts you had people prepare won't be needed."

What she didn't say was that she had already privately decided not to let the supply and marketing cooperative hold those items.

When the old man heard his eldest daughter-in-law say this, he understood how she knew: "Why wouldn't they be needed? With such a big thing happening, reasonably and emotionally, we should make a trip."

Yan Qingshuang was a bit agitated: "I heard the injury is not light. Even if he goes to a big hospital in the city, he might not be able to save that leg. Even the Liu family has split the household with them."

When the old man heard this, he straightened his back, frowned, and was about to say something when he heard his eldest daughter-in-law speak again: "Dad, I never supported this marriage. If it’s as those people say, and Liu Shanliang’s leg can't be cured, the burden will be too heavy. Such a family will only drag Weiping down."

"And you’ve seen Weiping’s attitude. If we really force them together, they won't have a good life."

How could Master Chen not guess his eldest daughter-in-law’s meaning: "Then what do you suggest?"

Yan Qingshuang knew what she was doing wasn't right, but for the sake of her son, she would be the villain: "Dad, actually there are many ways to repay a debt of gratitude; it doesn't have to be through marriage. Besides, Weiping is very resistant to this marriage now, and we shouldn't wrong him, right? After all, this is a lifelong matter."

Master Chen took a deep breath: "The girl will be eighteen in another year, and such a thing happened in her family. If we go to the door now to call off the engagement, where do you expect me to put this old face?"

Yan Qingshuang’s face burned: "Dad, marriage is a union between two families, but under the current circumstances, I have to consider Weiping more."

"Now is the most difficult time for their family. In my opinion, it’s better to send some money over and explain things clearly. If they are sensible, they should be able to understand our feelings."

As the two were talking, they heard an exclamation from the front yard: "Weiping, how did you get like this?"

Yan Qingshuang didn't care about anything else and turned to go to the front yard: "What happened?"

Chen Weiping was just about to go into the house to change his clothes when he heard his mother’s voice: "Where have you been acting crazy?"

He didn't expect his mother to be home at this time: "I’ll change my clothes first and tell you in a while."

But how could Yan Qingshuang let him into the house without getting a clear answer: "Speak, what exactly is going on with you?"

Chen Weiping was ashamed and wanted to die; it was just too damn embarrassing.

He and Hu Liru had finally made it off the bus, but because they were walking too fast, they bumped into someone at the bus station entrance.

Because Hu Liru was in a bad mood, she said a few unpleasant things, and the person wouldn't let it go. He fought with the person to protect her, but unfortunately, he underestimated the person’s strength, and he ended up in this state.

But if he told the truth now, wouldn't his mother eat Xiao Ru alive: "Mom, I’ll tell you later. Let me change my clothes first; it’s too filthy."

At this time, Master Chen also walked over with a dark face: "Come to the main hall after changing your clothes. I have something to ask you."
