Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 551 - 375 Pouring the Truth Out_2
Chapter 551: Chapter 375 Pouring the Truth Out_2
""Dad, I know you’re worried that helping Qiyan with her wedding will leave our family feeling cold, but if we don’t help her, I fear my second brother won’t be able to hold his head high in the village.
I’m your daughter, and you know me best. To say I harbor no grudge against my sister-in-law and Qiyan would be a lie.
Yet, no matter how resentful I am, it cannot negate the fact that Lin Xiaohua is my second brother’s wife and Zhao Qiyan is his flesh and blood.
Because of this kinship, we can’t hold onto this grudge forever. What I can be sure of is that in this lifetime, we can never be close to the sister-in-law and Qiyan. fгeewebnovёl.com
There’s something we’ve never fully explained to you and mom: the true reason why my sister-in-law and Qiyan went missing.
They are Chuxia’s second aunt and cousin. For them to do such cruel things, they never regarded Chuxia as family. If their schemes had succeeded, Chuxia’s life would have been over.
As a mother, I will never forgive them in this lifetime. If it weren’t for others’ help, mom and dad might still not know if they would ever see Chuxia again..." Recalling the events of that day, Zhao Yulan was too choked up to continue.
Although she didn’t elaborate, Old Master Zhao and Old Lady Zhao already understood that it must have been something terrible, and their expressions turned gloomy.
"Chuxia, tell us yourself. Grandpa wants you to give us the details," Old Master Zhao said.
Chuxia looked at her parents, and seeing them nod, she sighed softly and recounted the day’s events truthfully.
This matter had already been discussed among her family: they could deceive anyone except their grandparents, so the old couple would be prepared should the mother and daughter ever attempt to harm Zhao’s house again.
After Chuxia finished speaking, one could only imagine how the old couple felt.
The situation was indeed beyond their imagination; they knew the mother and daughter were selfish, but never had they considered they could be so cruel! They were practically plotting Chuxia’s death!
And now, Chuxia even spoke of not interfering with Zhao Qiyan’s marriage...
"Come here to grandma..." Old Lady Zhao stretched out her hand to her granddaughter with affection. Chuxia quickly slipped off her shoes and snuggled beside her, "Grandma, Grandpa, I am blessed, protected by deities. No one can harm me. Don’t be angry.
I didn’t go into details in the letter before because I was worried it would affect your health. Look, I am perfectly fine, nothing’s the matter.
Hehe... Actually, I’m quite vengeful, too. Second aunt and Zhao Qiyan have wronged me so much; I would never cover up for them. I want Grandma and Grandpa to give me justice.
Grandma and Grandpa must scold them severely, make them genuinely scared, so they never dare to harm our family or bully my uncle again," she concluded.
"You child, how can you be so kind..." Listening to her granddaughter’s indignant chatter, Old Lady Zhao’s heart softened even more, and her rough palm gently stroked Chuxia’s head. Her eyes brimmed with tenderness, "Such a good child, surely protected by the heavens. Grandma and Grandpa are at ease, but the matter with Lin Xiaohua and Zhao Qiyan cannot be simply let go. Your grandpa and I will see justice done for you."
"There’s no need..." Chuxia looked earnestly at Old Lady Zhao, "Grandma, if we really pursue this matter, the one who will suffer the most is my second uncle.
My parents and I have discussed it. Let’s do this: as long as mother and daughter didn’t gain any advantage and Grandma and Grandpa, as well as uncle’s family, aren’t schemed against in the future, and if my uncle can live a little more comfortably, that’s enough."
"Chuxia..."
Old Master Zhao waved his hand to interrupt Old Lady Zhao and turned to Lin Baohe: "Baohe, Dad wants to hear your thoughts."
"Dad, our family has indeed discussed this matter, and what Chuxia just expressed is our decision..." Pausing, Lin Baohe added, "My second brother-in-law is the one who has suffered the most; we can’t let him suffer any further."
As a son-in-law, Lin Baohe made his stance clear: he indeed regarded his daughter as his life, but for his wife’s sake, he and his daughter were willing to compromise this once.
Zhao Yushui was Zhao Yulan’s own brother. If Zhao Yushui ended up abandoned and alone, he himself wouldn’t be happy, and neither would Elder Zhao and Old Lady Zhao, and Zhao Yulan would be even less pleased since she felt all these events originated from within her own family. Therefore, this conundrum truly had no solution.
As everyone sat in silence, the voice of Li Aiyuan could be heard from outside, "Is my second brother here?"
"Yes, are dad and mom there?" It was Zhao Yushui’s voice.
"Come in," Elder Zhao said.
As the door was pushed open, the uncle, Zhao Yushui, entered and immediately fell to his knees with a thud: "Dad, mom, I have failed you, marrying a worthless daughter-in-law and raising a clueless daughter. Only now do I realize that damned girl brought her son-in-law here to anger you both. I... I apologize on their behalf!"
Chuxia’s eyes, cast downward, flashed with a hint of disappointment.
This was deliberate on her uncle’s part.
It seemed that this uncle could be dispensed with in the future.
He didn’t need to do this; she wouldn’t have destroyed his daughter, but him doing so meant that in his heart, she was just as unreasonable as his daughter.
Zhao Yulan extended her hand, then retracted it. She wasn’t foolish and had clearly understood her second brother’s intentions, which deeply disappointed her.
Lin Baohe stared fixedly at Zhao Yushui, signaling through his actions that those unfriendly to his daughter could not expect friendliness from him!
It was mid-December, and although winter had not fully set in, wearing a padded jacket would certainly not be overheating. Yet at that moment, Zhao Yushui’s forehead was visibly beaded with a fine layer of sweat...(To be continued.
