Chapter 170: Chapter 170: Confessing Without Being Asked_1
Meng Yunhan looked at Zhao Fang, “Sister-in-law, have I mentioned anything about what you said? Self-incrimination isn’t good, your husband is still trying to defend you.”
Zhao Fang’s face changed.
Yun Lei’s face also fell, “Sister, your sister-in-law didn’t say anything about this.”
Meng Yunhan’s face darkened as he looked at them, “I came here today to tell you something, never expecting you to admit it. Just like on the day of Xiaohu’s full moon celebration, our parents said they would move in with our third household. Elder brother and sister-in-law, if you have no issues, don’t come, because there’s an aunt who slandered her nephew. It’s better for our Xiaohu to stay as far away as possible!”
Then he left without looking back.
Yun Lei’s face darkened and looked a bit dreadful, with an unanticipated intensity flashing across his eyes.
Zhao Fang had never seen this side of Yun Lei before.
“Shitou, what’s wrong…”
Yun Lei gave Zhao Fang a deep look, “Did you spread the rumor?”
Zhao Fang shook her head, “No, no.”
“You’re still trying to argue? After this, we might really be cut off. Good, in the future, no matter how third brother’s family does, we won’t lift a finger and no one can blame us, isn’t that right, Zhao Fang?”
Zhao Fang’s heart skipped a beat, “Shitou, what are you talking about?”
“Isn’t this what you wanted? You were fearing that elder brother won’t recover, and his family will need our help, which will burden us. Good job, over the years with me, you’ve become smarter. But that’s my blood brother, are you trying to scheme against him?”
Yun Lei turned back and walked into his room, seemingly aged by ten years instantly.
Zhao Fang was left standing there stunned.
She did fear her husband’s family weighing them down. Now that their two children are starting school, their yearly income barely covers their own living expenses, let alone for extra help.
Anyway, she did nothing wrong, absolutely nothing wrong.
Xiaohu was the original troublemaker.
If it weren’t for Xiaohu’s first month celebration, they wouldn’t have gotten to eat meat, and her parents-in-law wouldn’t move in with their third son.
Now that something has happened to the third son, of course, her first thought is of her own daily life. She doesn’t want to meddle anymore. She has done nothing wrong, absolutely nothing wrong.
Meng Yunhan returned home.
“How did it go? Did they admit it?” And soon overthrew her own guess, “How could they possibly admit it? Hanhan, don’t blame your two sisters-in-law. They’re just afraid that their husbands might assist your uncle.”
They are also disheartened, but what can they do, he is their son after all.
Whether they provide help or not, they won’t say anything, after all, they have their own small families to take care of.”
“Mom, I understand, but I will never forgive them. I also told them, if they are okay, then they need not come over. If you and dad think I’m being harsh, I’ll move out with Yun Hao and Xiaohu.”
“Hanhan, don’t say such things. We agreed from the start that we would live with your family.”
Yun’s father also sighed, “Yes, your mother’s right, we did agree to live with your family.”
Both Yun’s parents felt a slight sense of guilt. Regarding their sons spreading rumors about their grandson, they didn’t have the courage to confront them. They hoped that their sons would look after the third son’s family more, especially now that he’s bedridden and they had no idea when he would wake up. But never did they expect this matter would reach Hanhan’s ears, and that he’s holding onto it so tenaciously.
“Dad, mom, you must have known about this matter a long time ago, and you guessed that it was my sisters-in-law. But you still kept it from me.”
