Chapter 899: Regret

~8 min read 1,420 words

Old Mrs. Dong pushed Dong Yuanyuan away somewhat powerlessly and said to her: "My head hurts a bit, I'm not feeling well."

Dong Yuanyuan stood up and pursued: "Grandma, are you going to help me or not?"

Old Mrs. Dong turned her head to look at the granddaughter standing there.

This granddaughter of hers is actually quite clever.

She really wants to push all the responsibility onto herself, letting her, this grandmother, take the blame for her, while she remains clean and has nothing to do with it.

So what should she do now?

The old lady felt that neither of these two granddaughters was easy to worry about.

The younger one is too fragile; she talks about dying if she doesn't get her way; after returning home in the future, one really wouldn't dare to even breathe loudly.

As for this older one, her temper is foul and stubborn; she's this old, doesn't find a partner, doesn't go to work; even if the Dong family can afford to support her, it's not how things should be.

Now that this incident has happened, if people know that she has responsibility in it, then finding a partner in the future will really be too difficult.

Those of equal social status will certainly look down on her.

As for those whose conditions are not as good as her family's, for her own sake, she wouldn't be able to save face.

At this moment, the old lady really felt some regret.

These years she has been too indulgent; therefore, she is reaping what she sowed, and she deserves it.

The old lady standing at the doorway had a bitter smile on her face, but her heart was cooling down bit by bit.

She said: "Who let me be your grandmother? Although you don't even have a partner until now, although you don't have a job until now, and don't go to school, you are good for nothing. Compared to your peers, what point can you compare to them?"

"Look at Lu Qiao opposite, graduated from Beidu University, now a cadre focused on cultivation by the State General Administration of Foreign Trade; in these few years, she has established several factories, and every factory can earn foreign exchange."

Her family is harmonious, the brothers and sisters love each other; after marrying Qin Hengzhi, I have never heard of her having any conflict with the Qin family.

Even Qin Hengzhi's second aunt, who is such a troublesome person, has never said a bad word about Lu Qiao behind her back; on the contrary, whenever Lu Qiao is mentioned, her face is full of smiles, wishing she were her own biological daughter."

"Qin Ruixue of the Qin family, you also know about this; you even laughed at her back then, but what about now? She is also married, has a family, and even has a daughter. When Qin Ruixue had a conflict with her mother-in-law, even Qin Ruixue's parents didn't know what to do, Lu Qiao went to her house."

No one knows the specifics, but one can guess that it must have been resolved very well.

Look at how comfortable Qin Ruixue's life is at her in-laws' now; Qin Ruixue can also be considered to have turned over a new leaf; whether it is work or family, you really can't pick any faults with her."

"But she told others that it was Lu Qiao who helped her; she said she was lucky to have Lu Qiao as her sister-in-law."

"Just tell me, among those in our residential compound, which family can be like Lu Qiao, where the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, the relationship with the sister-in-law, and even other relationships are all handled very well?"

She doesn't cater to others either; she is just open and straightforward, but who dares to look down on her?"

"In the end, she just has the ability. For such a person, if I, as a grandmother, were to compare you with her, I would feel guilty."

"Then compare yourself with Chief of Staff Xu's daughter. Didn't you always play together when you were young, always competing, grabbing, and comparing?"

Look at that little girl now; she is also doing very well at her unit, now has a junior college degree, and her husband is from our residential compound, knowing the roots and the bottom; the couple's life has never made their parents or family worry."

Dong Yuanyuan, your mother's thoughts are sometimes wrong, but I can't say that your mother's discipline of you is not good, but now it seems that some practices really just pitted you and harmed you.

But now you are already at this age; to say something unpleasant, you are almost 30; in a few years, if you want to find a partner, you can only find someone who is divorced and has children; tell me, why are you suffering like this?"

Having reached this point, I, as a grandmother, have great responsibility, and your father has even greater responsibility.

I don't know how to say it; anyway, I regret it very much now, but how can I have the heart to let you add frost to the snow like this?"

If you are burdened with the reputation of forcing your own sister to death, your life will really be completely over."

"So Yuanyuan, Grandma promises you, just push all the matters onto me; it's all this grandmother's fault, and it has nothing to do with you."

Since you don't want to go to your biological mother's place these few days, you just stay at home peacefully; don't go out and talk nonsense or cause trouble."

As for the hospital side, if you go and can't treat your sister well, don't go and provoke her."

Grandma Dong, who said this, had tears flowing down silently.

She also didn't expect that things would develop to this point today. If she had known it would be like this, she certainly wouldn't have indulged and spoiled this granddaughter.

For a girl like Lu Qiao, no matter how you indulge her, she knows where her path is, and she knows how to walk it.

For someone like Yuanyuan, she should be strictly disciplined and not left to her own devices.

But this bitter fruit that has been brewed, she and her son cannot escape.

Thinking of the future, she felt it was all darkness.

The old lady turned around and "bang," closed the bedroom door.

Dong Yuanyuan didn't even react, because from childhood to adulthood, it seemed Grandma had never said such heavy words to her, nor had she ever said so many words.

For a moment, her brain was buzzing; after reacting, she stomped her feet and cried loudly in anger.

She was cursing messily, then picked up the teapot on the coffee table and "bang," smashed it on the floor.

She was cursing: "Everything is my fault! If you hadn't agreed to my dad and mom's divorce, could I have not had my biological mother by my side? My big brother and dad and mom, isn't our family of four good?"

When we divorced, you agreed to it, and you agreed so readily! You just looked down on my mother, disliked her for having such a strong personality that couldn't cater to your whims, and complained that she couldn't do housework or serve you.

"So when that woman surnamed Lian entered the door, although you were disgusted in every way, you didn't disagree!"

"Don't you just like to find a daughter-in-law who serves you?"

Grandma Dong in the room was trembling all over with anger; she put her hand on her heart, really feeling that she might lose her life right now.

Just at this moment, the door was opened, and Dong Ze, with a face full of exhaustion, entered the room.

He heard half of the cursing, and then saw the mess on the floor. He asked with a cold voice: "What's going on? Where is your grandmother?"

Dong Yuanyuan was still crying loudly and didn't pay any attention to Old Dong at all.

Dong Ze's expression changed; he pushed open the door to his mother's bedroom and found his mother's face pale, trembling all over, while her hand was pressed on her heart. He was so scared that he took a few steps forward, and just as he was about to say something, the old lady said: "Don't be nervous, pour me some hot water, I'll be fine after a while." ===== CHAPTER 900 =====
