Yu’s father listened to these words, his expression somewhat unnatural, lightly coughing as he said: "No matter what, you shouldn’t have kept it from us."
Xinyan laughed coldly: "Anyway, we’re all square now, there’s no point in discussing this further."
Yu’s mother interjected: "By the way, you previously said that Lyu Juncheng was caught in bed with a woman, what’s all that about?"
Xinyan looked at them: "Oh, didn’t the Lyu Family tell you? Oh, right, such an embarrassing matter, I bet Lyu Juncheng wouldn’t write to inform the Lyu Family."
Yu’s mother was a bit anxious: "Hurry up and tell us then."
Xinyan recounted the incident once, but she didn’t mention anything about not returning to the Lyu Family after leaving the hospital, nor Lyu Juncheng’s vasectomy, as these now weren’t important.
Yu’s mother, burning with rage, said: "Turns out Lyu Juncheng had an affair with his sister-in-law, causing the divorce. Just wait till I see the Lyu Family, I’m definitely going to give them a piece of my mind, what nonsense."
Having stirred things up, Xinyan now left them to handle the aftermath: "I have to get back to work, so I’m heading back."
Yu’s mother, displeased, said: "Are you just going to leave us here?"
Xinyan took out the breakup letter from her pocket: "It’s clearly stated here, once this breakup letter is signed, we have no relation.
Even if all those years ago, the person who adopted me had given you enough money, even if they hadn’t, the work points and money I’ve earned over these years are more than enough to support myself. Moreover, I and also kindly assumed the debt of the two hundred bucks you sold me for, we’re square."
After speaking, she briskly stepped out of the canteen.
This lifetime, the Yu Family shouldn’t expect to take advantage of me, nor should they think they can leverage so-called gratitude to manipulate me.
As soon as she left, Yu’s mother became anxious: "Old man, are we just going to let her leave like that?"
Yu’s father watched Xinyan’s distant back: "What else, do you think she can still be as obedient as before?"
Yu’s mother gritted her teeth and said: "Hmph, don’t forget she doesn’t have any other relatives apart from us. Surely she’s still mad at us now, but after some time when she calms down, with her nature, a few sweet words will coax her back to obedience.
I initially planned to take her back and find a family for her to marry again, but now I’ve changed my mind. Once she clears those debts, I’ll come with Erli.
Even if she doesn’t come back home, finding her a match here is just the same. Once the bride price money is secured, hmph, who cares how she lives or dies, we’re already estranged anyway."
Imagining the good fortune, it’s as if she’s already received the bride price money, the smile on her face is unsettling to see.
Yu’s father closed his eyes and sighed, saying nothing, realizing that their adopted daughter has truly changed, and what his wife just said was mere self-deception, wishful thinking.
He stepped forward: "Old man, where are we going now?"
Yu’s father hardened his expression: "Naturally, to demand an explanation from the Lyu Family. These past few days, we’ve suffered enough humiliation from the Lyu Family, we can’t just let this slide."
Upon hearing, Yu’s mother said: "Right, let’s go, wait till I scold them to death."
The two soon stormed to Jun Cheng’s courtyard entrance, where Yu’s mother began to hurl abuses immediately: "Lyu Juncheng, you’re such a shameless thing, doing such disgraceful acts without clarifying, even trying to frame our Yu Family. You’re truly vile, disgracing Beilan Village."
As soon as she started cursing, people quickly gathered around.
