Chapter 898: How can I help you?

~7 min read 1,378 words

Dong Yuanyuan stood at the doorway, looking at Grandma Dong quite matter-of-factly, her voice crisp: "It was originally the two of us together, Grandma. Weren't you also very angry at the time? Weren't you also scolding Dong Mingming with me? Weren't you also trying to hit that cat with me?

Right, and that sparrow that flew in, didn't know how; weren't you also very angry, Grandma? If you weren't angry, shouldn't you have stopped me? But you didn't stop me."

Old Mrs. Dong's hands trembled slightly; she raised them halfway and then slowly lowered them, asking with a bitter smile: "What is the use of saying all this?"

She looked at Dong Yuanyuan with a complex expression, understanding in her heart: this is an ungrateful wolf that can never be fed; no matter how well you treat her, it's useless. When it came to this point, she wasn't thinking about bearing responsibility; her mind was full of how to push the responsibility onto others.

Now that the military department has intervened, just asking about this matter, can she shirk the responsibility?

She cannot!

After Mingming wakes up and clarifies the original cause, both she and Yuanyuan will have responsibility.

Her son hadn't talked to her in detail these past two days, just understood it simply, and the person had been in the hospital the whole time.

After understanding it in detail, she didn't know what reaction her son would have now.

As for how her biological mother, Lian Liying, would react?

At this moment, Old Mrs. Dong didn't take it to heart at all.

As long as Lian Liying still wanted to be a daughter-in-law of the Dong family, she certainly wouldn't do anything detrimental to the Dong family and would definitely stand on their side.

At this moment, Dong Yuanyuan felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit off; she stomped her feet, rolled her eyes, and then quickly walked to the old lady's side, hugged her, and said coquettishly: "Grandma, I am also afraid that my dad will be angry and hit me, but my dad is so filial to you; no matter what, he wouldn't dare to scold or hit you. Grandma, when it really comes to that time, you must help me."

Grandma Dong's heart felt a bit cold. She truly loved this granddaughter; after all, she had raised her from a young age and had invested too much emotion.

Many times, you only know pain when the knife is stuck in your own body.

When Dong Yuanyuan treated others like this, she had no reaction; when she treated her like this, Grandma Dong felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

She didn't look at this granddaughter she loved the most, but asked word by word: "Yuanyuan, then tell me, how do you want me to help you?"

Dong Yuanyuan was actually not young anymore.

If according to normal standards, someone like her would have been married long ago.

Her family conditions were good, and she looked okay; logically speaking, as long as she nodded, it shouldn't have been delayed until now.

It was just that Dong Yuanyuan's standards were very high, and she looked down on ordinary people.

A few years ago, she took a fancy to someone, a military officer under her father.

But the other party already had a fiancée.

Her style of conduct was somewhat similar to Qin Ruixue's back then.

It was just that the other party was very alert and didn't take the bait.

The Dong family thought they had done everything well and thought people outside didn't know what Dong Yuanyuan's reputation was like.

But in fact, many people knew what kind of personality this Dong Yuanyuan had.

It was completely the style of an arrogant and domineering young lady.

Some people who wanted to climb the social ladder didn't care about this.

Men, after all, mostly had a high-and-mighty mindset; no matter how arrogant and domineering this woman was, she was just a woman; after she married him, there would be plenty of time to deal with her...

Besides, even if he couldn't deal with her, utilizing her family's resources could also allow him to live a good life.

But unfortunately, such people didn't gain the favor of the young lady Dong Yuanyuan.

Because of various reasons, after getting along for a period of time, she was the one who proposed breaking up with the other party first.

And because she had quarreled with the girls in the residential compound several times. That time, the youngest daughter of Chief of Staff Xu pointed at her angrily and said: "You are the most annoying person I have ever seen! I have never seen anyone more annoying than you. I hope every day that you get married quickly, preferably married far away, and never return to this residential compound for the rest of your life..."

In the end, Dong Yuanyuan got into a fight with Chief of Staff Xu's youngest daughter.

Then Dong Yuanyuan discovered that everyone seemed to hope she would get married quickly, no matter what kind of person she found, preferably married far away.

It seemed Grandma was the same.

She was originally a girl with an abnormal personality; being expected like this, she was not in a hurry to find a partner, and her standards were very high.

And so it was delayed until now.

Of course, the most important reason was that her biological mother was also not in a hurry.

Her biological mother even told her that marriage was not a very important matter; for a girl, as long as she could live happily, what did it matter if she had this marriage or not?

Of course, to some extent, Dong Yuanyuan's mother's thoughts were not wrong.

But now everyone emphasizes freedom of marriage and love.

If you can't find a suitable one, you can't just find one randomly.

After all, it is a major event in a person's life.

As for work, in this era, let alone people at Old Dong's level who could arrange work for their children, even workers in some large factories could actually arrange work for their children.

If according to the laws of historical development, workers being laid off and unable to find work would be a matter for more than a decade later.

But it is estimated that now with Lu Qiao's intervention, the probability of such things happening in the city where she is located is very small.

To return to the topic, Dong Yuanyuan now, whether she wants to go to school or go to work, or find a partner, is very easy.

But she just stays at home.

Whether it is seen by her family or by outsiders, this Dong Yuanyuan lives as she pleases; her life is truly decided by herself.

So she didn't hesitate at all and said to Grandma Dong: "Grandma, this is too simple, you can definitely help me. Although I didn't say anything, Grandma, please don't tell my dad about what I said about Dong Mingming. Even if Dong Mingming tells my dad, you just insist that I didn't say anything, and that it was all Mingming spreading rumors! Grandma, this is you helping me."

Grandma Dong felt her heart being pinched and uncomfortable.

Perhaps this is what they call reaping what you sow.

So she asked again murmuringly: "Yuanyuan, you mean, it's all Grandma's fault, right?"

Dong Yuanyuan said matter-of-factly: "Grandma, if the people from the military department really ask, you just say it's your own business. You are Grandma, you are the elder, you are teaching your granddaughter, what's wrong with that? Even if we two quarreled, you didn't say you were biased toward anyone; you scolded both of us together. When the time comes, I will say the same, and you say the same; whatever Dong Mingming says herself will be useless. Besides, that girl is timid; scare her a little, and she won't dare to talk nonsense."

"Then aren't you worried that your dad and aunt will blame me?"

"Grandma, they all call you Mom; even if they blame you, they wouldn't dare to hit you. Grandma, help me, otherwise my dad will definitely be angry with me." ===== CHAPTER 899 =====
