Chapter 483: Returning to the Old Place

~8 min read 1,495 words

Upon hearing this, Ma Lan felt a wave of sorrow!

During the two days she was inside, the attitude of everyone in the family seemed to have changed.

Her husband ignored her and even took the initiative to get angry at her. Her son-in-law was no longer the son-in-law who could be manipulated by others, and even got angry at her, telling her to move back to the old house.

Even her only reliance, her good daughter, was no longer on her side.

She never dreamed that her daughter would actually speak up for Ye Chen at this time.

Being a drama queen herself, seeing that she seemed to have lost power in this family, her eyes turned red in the blink of an eye, and she began to act.

She choked up pitifully: "Now I am redundant in this family. Your father doesn't care about me, your husband threatens to drive me out, and even you are not on my side..."

As she spoke, Ma Lan curled her lips, and tears flowed down.

Xiao Churan sighed helplessly and said: "Mom, you were indeed wrong just now. I can't be on your side all the time."

Although she felt sorry for her mother suffering so much, this was not a reason for her mother to order Ye Chen around, and even less a reason to insult Auntie Li.

Moreover, Xiao Churan knew very well that her husband had a very pitiful background since he was a child. In this world, he didn't have many real relatives.

Besides her, it might just be Auntie Li.

This was also the reason why Ye Chen had tried his best to get money to treat Auntie Li's illness some time ago.

She knew that in Ye Chen's heart, he treated Auntie Li like a mother.

She had always appreciated Ye Chen's style of repaying kindness, otherwise she wouldn't have given him all her private money to take to Auntie Li for medical treatment.

Therefore, she also felt that her mother was really a bit too much, and naturally she couldn't speak up for her mother at this time.

At this time, Ma Lan was already crying with snot and tears, lamenting: "My life is really pitiful. Does this family still have a place for me?"

Ye Chen was no longer willing to watch her act, and was even no longer willing to have any more patience for her, so he bypassed her directly and said to Xiao Churan: "Wife, I'll go to the welfare institute first, and I won't eat at home tonight."

Xiao Churan hurriedly stood up and said: "I'll go with you. I haven't seen Auntie Li for a long time. The last time I went to the hospital to see Auntie Li was a few months ago, and I miss her quite a bit."

To say that Xiao Churan really fulfilled the obligations and responsibilities of a good wife, she not only supported Ye Chen in treating Auntie Li, but also often followed him to visit and take care of Auntie Li in the hospital, and like Ye Chen, she was very respectful to Auntie Li.

Auntie Li also liked her very much, almost treating her like her own daughter-in-law.

Seeing that Xiao Churan wanted to go with him to see Auntie Li, Ye Chen nodded with satisfaction and said: "Then let's go together. When Auntie Li called me last time, she asked about you. She should miss you too."

Xiao Churan stood up and said: "Then let's set off now."

Upon hearing that Xiao Churan was going to leave with Ye Chen, Ma Lan said pitifully: "Good daughter, are you angry with Mom? Are you going to ignore Mom too?"

Xiao Churan looked at Ma Lan and said seriously: "Mom, I really hope you can reflect on this experience and change your personality. Otherwise, you will definitely suffer in the future."

Hearing her say this, Ma Lan sat on the ground and threw a tantrum: "What's the point of me living? My only relative, my good daughter, is no longer on my side now. The police shouldn't have let me out and should have let me die in the detention center..."

If it were in the past, Xiao Churan would definitely have softened and compromised when seeing her mother throwing such a tantrum, but this time she understood that if her mother always had this personality, then she would have many days of suffering ahead. She absolutely could not indulge her temper and personality anymore.

So, she said to Ma Lan: "Mom, think about it carefully by yourself. Ye Chen and I are leaving first. By the way, Ye Chen cooked noodles for you, don't forget to scoop them out and eat them."

After speaking, she said to Ye Chen: "Let's go."

Ye Chen nodded, took Xiao Churan out of the house, and drove her to the welfare institute.

On the way, Ye Chen bought a bouquet of flowers, a fruit basket, and wrote a greeting card by hand, ready to give to Auntie Li.

Arriving in front of the Jin Ling Welfare Institute, Ye Chen parked the car in a parking space on the side of the road. Looking at this slightly old gate, he felt a trance in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a sense of time backtracking and spatial displacement.

Standing here, it was as if in an instant, he overlapped with some scenes in his memory. The scenes that flashed by were all the softest, happiest, and most precious memories in his heart.

He still remembers the scene of his first time coming to the welfare institute.

At the age of eight, he lost his parents and was wandering the streets. It was Auntie Li, who was like an angel in the world, who brought him here, then held his hand with one hand and pointed to this gate with the other, saying very lovingly: "Child, don't be afraid, this will be your home from now on."

Ye Chen still remembers this incredibly warm scene vividly, even after many years.

Thinking of this, a rare happy look appeared on Ye Chen's face, and even the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Seeing his smiling face, Xiao Churan couldn't help but say: "You seem very happy today."

Ye Chen nodded slightly and said: "Yes, you know, ever since Auntie Li got sick, I have been especially worried. Before, I tried to find ways to get money everywhere, but I didn't raise enough medical expenses for Auntie Li's kidney transplant. If it weren't for the coincidence of fate, Auntie Li would probably have left me already."

Xiao Churan recalled the scene when Ye Chen begged his grandmother for money to pay for Auntie Li's medical expenses.

At that time, she really felt sorry for this man who had a bumpy life and was wandering since he was a child.

It's a pity that she didn't have the ability to take out so much money to help him at that time.

Fortunately, Auntie Li was blessed by heaven, and someone solved the medical expenses for her and sent her to the best Xiehe Hospital in the country for treatment.

Thinking of this, Xiao Churan couldn't help but ask: "By the way, you said someone paid all the medical expenses for Auntie Li at that time. Who is that person? How could they be so generous? Auntie Li went to Xiehe Hospital for treatment; this trip must have cost at least two or three million, right?"

Ye Chen nodded and said: "I heard it cost a total of 3 million. As for who paid the money, I'm not too clear, but I heard it was someone Auntie Li had saved before."

Of course, Ye Chen couldn't say that the money for Auntie Li's treatment was paid by himself, because at that time he was still a standard poor loser, and it was impossible for him to take out a huge sum of 3 million, so he couldn't explain it at all.

So he could only sigh: "If I had known that reading feng shui for others was so profitable, I should have tried it when Auntie was sick."

As the two were talking, a voice full of surprise suddenly sounded in their ears: "Brother Ye Chen!"

When he turned around to look, he saw a slender and tall figure walking out of the welfare institute.

It was actually Li Xiaofen.

Not seen for a few years, Li Xiaofen had grown into a big girl!

Already in her early 20s, she was over 1.7 meters tall, and her figure was no less than those models.

Although she was dressed very simply and plainly, she gave people a feeling of crystal clear and icy clean.

Ye Chen couldn't help but marvel, really a girl changes eighteen times, is this still the little girl who followed him like a tail at the welfare institute?!
