Chapter 1744: Sparks Flying 2

~8 min read 1,446 words

Su Qiangying said, "There absolutely won't be any problems; if there are, leave it to me."

"What big talk. Leave it to you? What are you going to use to handle it?"

The two women started arguing again, and Moli could only continue to try and smooth things over.

He suggested bringing the doctor over and listening to the doctor.

If the doctor said it couldn't be eaten, then don't eat it; if the doctor said it could be eaten, then eat it!

The doctor was brought over. He said that Traditional Chinese Medicine indeed has the concept of "trigger foods" that shouldn't be eaten, while Western medicine doesn't have such taboos; such matters vary from person to person—some people's constitutions are fine with it, while others will have issues.

Although what was said was also ambiguous, in the end, Su Qiangying stopped insisting; she also didn't want Moli's health to have problems.

This incident caused the relationship between the two women, which had finally eased up a little, to drop back to freezing point.

After returning home, Su Qiangying complained to her mother, saying her future mother-in-law was too much and was being aggressive.

Yet her mother reprimanded her, saying that in this matter, the mother was in the right—with so many nourishing things, why insist on eating lamb?

Su Qiangying was unconvinced: "Moli likes eating lamb."

Her mother exposed her: "It's not that he likes eating lamb, it's that you do. Moli, that child, thinks of you in everything, yet you are prone to being stubborn. Affection takes bit-by-bit accumulation to build up, but its demise can happen in an instant."

"Don't be at odds with Moli's mother at every turn; think more about others' good points. Have you forgotten the time you took it upon yourself to invite Moli's biological mother to his birthday banquet?"

"What if his mother is dead set on making the two of you break up? Tell me, would Moli elope with you or break up with you?"

This last sentence left Su Qiangying completely silent.

There was no need to answer; the answer was ready-made—he would break up!

This was also something she had always been brooding over, but it was the truth.

On the other side.

Sheng Zerong was also persuading his wife.

"It's normal for young people to be ignorant; why do you have to be so serious about it?"

Jian Yixin was unconvinced: "I'm not being serious; it's that woman who is too infuriating. She has a one-track mind and just thinks she's right."

Her husband laughed and said: "If she didn't have that one-track mind, she wouldn't have climbed the stairs behind your back back then."

Jian Yixin:...

Sheng Zerong continued: "Think about it, weren't you like this when you were young? You wouldn't turn back until you hit the south wall, and even after hitting the south wall, you still wouldn't turn back!"

She was still not quite convinced, but her anger had dissipated somewhat.

Under the persuasion from both sides, this storm that could very likely have escalated was suppressed once again.

Moli was finally discharged from the hospital. After this hospital stay, the father and son were terrified, and the prospective mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were at each other's throats.

Jian Yixin was bursting with anger, and after returning, she went to Shi Youxuan to pour out her grievances.

She still felt that her daughter-in-law was too overbearing; once Su Qiangying entered her home in the future, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship would definitely be very tense.

Shi Youxuan asked: "Have you noticed who Moli's girlfriend's personality is like?"

"Like me."

Jian Yixin said crossly: "You all say that."

Shi Youxuan shook her head: "On the surface, she seems like you, but in reality, she is more like your mother."

This perspective was very fresh, and Jian Yixin asked: "Why?"

Shi Youxuan said: "Think about it, is it like this? When your mother was alive, she was good to you and your brother, but looked down on everyone else. Now, Moli's girlfriend only sees him as good, and looks at you like an enemy—is that like your mother?"

She thought about it carefully, and it really was quite similar.

Shi Youxuan continued: "If you don't get along with Moli's girlfriend, you don't have to interact; as long as their little life can be good, that's enough."

"You can't take care of your son forever; you will always have to hand him over to a girl who can put your mind at ease. Besides being at odds with you, isn't Su Qiangying still very good to Moli?"

She nodded; apart from that lamb incident, everything else was indeed quite good.

Seeing that she had taken her words to heart, Shi Youxuan found it easier to say the rest.

"The two of them are truly a match made in heaven, just like you and Ze Rong. You have lived as a harmonious couple for so many years, and they will also be very good in the future."

She had already accepted it in her heart, but she still insisted stubbornly: "I'm afraid she will bully my son. I'm nothing; if we don't get along, at worst we'll just see less of each other in the future."

"Did your mother bully your father back then?"

"Do you bully your husband?"

Jian Yixin shook her head: "No."

That's it then. Since you already have the answer in your heart, what are you being pretentious for?

Just make some concessions. Young people are inevitably hot-headed; they will be better when they get a little older.

Shi Youxuan didn't even believe the last sentence she said herself.

Jian Yixin wasn't young anymore, and her temper hadn't improved either.

Of course, that wasn't important; what was important was that Jian Yixin believed it.

"Alright, I'll listen to you. Do you think my temper is so bad because I've reached menopause?"

"Whether you're in menopause, who are you asking?"

Jian Yixin calculated it; she had indeed reached menopause. Back then, when her mother, Lady Jian, was this age, she started making a scene out of everything.

No, she had to restrain herself; she couldn't go on like this.

The global financial crisis broke out.

The Yun Family bore the brunt of it and was severely affected.

The Yun Family mainly did logistics business and international trade. With the outbreak of the financial crisis abroad, companies large and small declared bankruptcy one after another, and their family was among the first batch of enterprises in the country to be impacted.

Return orders flew to the company like snowflakes, and the goods piled up in the warehouse were countless.

At this time, if they announced a factory shutdown, they would violate their contracts, but if they didn't stop production, they couldn't come up with the money to pay.

The father and son of the Yun Family were busy and exhausted every day because of company matters, but it was of no avail.

Yun Group.

Chairman's office.

Yun Zhehao had sprouted quite a few white hairs overnight; he said to his son, "The company is afraid it won't be able to hold on much longer; you need to make arrangements for your wife and daughter."

Yun Qitian knew what his father meant, but whenever he thought about the outcome between him and Shi Ran, his heart felt as if it were being fried in hot oil.

"I know, Dad, let me think about it some more..."

"Stop thinking, make up your mind to be good to them sooner; we won't be able to pull through this time."

Shi Ran and Yun Qitian's home.

She was close to giving birth now, yet she could barely even see her husband's face.

Every day, she would wait until late at night for her husband to return home; he wouldn't even shower or change his clothes, but would collapse onto the bed and fall into a deep sleep.

And in the morning, before she had even woken up, her husband would have already left the house; this had been the case for several days in a row.

Today, however, Yun Qitian returned home early for once, but he didn't have a pleasant expression; facing his wife's concern, he simply handed over a Divorce Agreement and said coldly, "Shi Ran, let's get a divorce."

"Why?" She held her large belly, still relatively calm.

Yun Qitian: "I have someone else on the outside; I've fallen for another woman."

"A marriage where we are forcing ourselves to be together is not happy; let's divorce!"

"The Madam Always Wants to Anger Me"

Like "The Madam Always Wants to Anger Me"
