Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 920 - 765: Frozen Relations (Part 4)

On the other side of the door, Mei Langchi lay in bed, wearing the same expression. Both of them were quite satisfied with these days.

...

"Is it here, old man?" After a heavy snowfall, an elderly couple pointed at Ye Qing’s door.

"It should be. I’ll go knock and see." The old man said as he stepped forward to knock on the door.

They waited for a long time, but no one answered the door. When they looked down, they saw a big lock on the door.

"No one’s here, probably out to work. Let’s find a place nearby to stay and come back in the evening to check again," said the old woman.

"Alright, there should be someone here in the evening," the old man agreed and turned to leave.

Since they knew the place, they planned to wait it out.

The elderly couple was none other than Li Liang’s parents.

Recently, there had been a standoff with Wei Xue over their granddaughter, with neither family willing to compromise.

It escalated to where Wei Xue’s mother ended up in the hospital.

The Wei Family frequently came to their house to make trouble over this issue.

They remembered the day when Wei Xue came with her brothers to ask for medical expenses.

"Your son was a real womanizer during his life, he slept with quite a few women. Any of them could have secretly had a child with him. Instead of fighting me over my daughter, maybe you should look for the women who might have given birth to your son’s child," she said, pointing at them.

"How could you say that? My son never did such things," Granny Li denied her son’s affairs outside.

"Whether I am making it up or it’s the truth, we both know well. How many women did I help your son deal with right in front of you when Li Liang was alive? Are you blind?"

"Don’t try to mislead us here. We won’t give up on the child. We don’t have the money, and it wasn’t us who hurt your mom, she fell by herself," Old Li said with a stern face, trying to drive them out.

Wei Xue snorted and said, "If you don’t give me the money today, believe it or not, I will tell everyone in the neighborhood about every woman Li Liang slept with and let them know what kind of person he was." She pointed at some papers in her hand, saying, "Do you see this? These are the records of households of married women Li Liang seduced over the years. If you don’t care about your son’s peace after death, then by all means, don’t pay."

"This is clearly blackmail!" Granny Li looked at Wei Xue, angrily placing her hands on her hips and shouting.

"Whether I’m blackmailing or not, everyone can see, five hundred," Wei Xue replied coldly.

"What? Five hundred? Why don’t you just rob us?" Granny Li was clearly unwilling.

"If I were robbing, it wouldn’t just be five hundred. Your mother got a concussion and fractures from being hit by you. Five hundred is already low," Wei Xue retorted.

"If your mother can have fractures, so can I. Let’s see if it’s the same," Granny Li scoffed, not wanting to pay.

"Fine, if you want fractures, I’ll help you. Brother, hit the leg with that stick hard, and we’ll get compensation for fractures."

"Alright then," Boss Wei said and was about to get the stick.

Old Li saw this and quickly stopped it, knowing from countless encounters how the Wei Family liked to operate.

He quickly and obediently handed over the money.

Wei Xue smiled with satisfaction and, as she left, said to the Li grandparents, "Don’t even think about getting my daughter back. But considering our family ties, I’ll give you a hint. Li Liang does indeed have a child out there, and it’s a boy."

Wei Xue’s words stunned the Li grandparents. Despite their feud, they hurried to confirm, "Is it true?"

Wei Xue chuckled, gave them a few photos and an address, and left.

They initially thought Wei Xue was deceiving them, but they were also afraid there might actually be a grandson out there. So, they decided to investigate on their own.

Because they recognized the woman in the photo as the one who had a rumored relationship with their son back in school.

They knew this woman had lived in S City.

To their surprise, after some investigation, they discovered that this woman indeed had a child.

According to her neighbors at the time, they even helped during her postpartum month after giving birth.

At the time, she had relationships with two men, and the child wasn’t from her current husband.

Of course, the person they were investigating was Yang Erni.

And Li Liang’s parents truly believed both Wei Xue and Yang Erni’s words.

With the existence of their son’s offspring, they naturally wanted to find the child to continue the Li Family lineage.

So, after some preparation, they came to the Capital City with the address in hand, hoping to find the child soon and bring him home for a family reunion for the New Year.

Little did they know that after waiting for two days, still no one answered.

It was not that they went to the wrong place, it was simply because it was the weekend. Ye Qing and Mei Langchi had returned to the compound together.

...Moreover, an incident happened this time at the compound.

Every time Ye Qing visited the Mei Family now, she faced unkind treatment. She really didn’t want to come. Despite their sneers and jeers, Ye Qing continued to stop by enthusiastically.

Because each time she argued with Xie Lingzhi and Old Mrs. Mei, she felt particularly exhilarated.

Saturday morning, they arrived early, and as soon as they got there, Xie Lingzhi began nitpicking at Ye Qing.

"Look at the things you bought, how cheap they are. Is this how you show respect to your elders?"

Xie Lingzhi held a rather unappealing apple.

It wasn’t that Xie Lingzhi was being picky, but Ye Qing did it on purpose, deliberately buying it to disgust Xie Lingzhi.

"Having any fruit to eat in the dead of winter is already a luxury, and not everyone can afford it. If you don’t like it, Mom, I’ll take it out and throw it away," Ye Qing said, immediately grabbing the apple from Xie Lingzhi’s hand, striding out the door, and tossing it right at the Mei Family’s doorstep. The apple scattered instantly at the entrance.

This made it clear to passersby that the Mei Family was probably quarreling again. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Recovering from her shock, Xie Lingzhi’s face turned black with anger.

"Ye Qing, you shameless wretch, get out of my house. You’re not welcome here."

"Mom, I’m the daughter-in-law of the Mei Family. If you’re not afraid of people laughing at us, I’ll leave right now. Langchi, what do you say?"

Since returning to the old house, Mei Langchi hadn’t uttered a word, sitting silently in the living room, watching them argue. His eyes never left the two women.

However, when Ye Qing spoke up, Mei Langchi wasn’t surprised at all.

"The Mei Family has had plenty of jokes over the past couple of years, one more won’t matter. If you leave, do it with dignity. Don’t let people see your sorry state and laugh,"

"You..." Ye Qing didn’t expect Mei Langchi to embarrass her like that.

But Ye Qing wasn’t someone who could be dismissed with a few words. She came today to stir trouble for the Mei Family.

Especially for Old Mrs. Mei and Xie Lingzhi.

"Did you hear that? Get out of here," Xie Lingzhi said, seeing her son’s stance, and immediately felt emboldened. She looked at Ye Qing with satisfaction and gave a mocking smile.
