Chapter 358 Believe that he can protect you! The last time Yu Xiaoliang saw his daughter was when he was seeing her off at Baiyun Airport. Later, driven by a guilty conscience, Old Yu paid all the child support he should have paid over the years. Yu Xian didn't want it when he came back, but Grandma Yu accepted it. Grandma’s meaning was very simple: the money could not be used to support that bitch Tang Xiangyue and her daughter. However, during this period of time, the father and daughter have not seen each other again, and Yu Xian didn't know why he came here today. But grandma didn’t look happy, obviously she had just scolded someone. "Xian Mei'er is back." Yu Xiaoliang put on a smile and greeted him. Although he paid the child support, he still felt guilty. Especially when he saw the frankness between his daughter's eyebrows, which was very similar to that of his late wife, Old Yu, who had a weak character to begin with, didn't even dare to look Yu Xian in the eye.
"Ah." Yu Xian's attitude was neither cold nor friendly. He simply responded indifferently and then sat down next to his grandmother. Although my grandmother is almost 60 years old, she is in great health and has good eyesight. When you are setting up a dragon gate formation, no one can try to cheat you. “This dress…” Grandma looked at it for a moment in the light and suddenly asked, "Isn't this what you wore this morning?" Yu Xian would not lie. With her personality, she would not lie. Although she felt a little shy, she still answered frankly, "This is Chen's clothes." "what?" Grandma's eyes suddenly widened. Even Old Yu, who had been looking down at the floor tiles with an ashamed look on his face, looked over in surprise. His lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something but didn't know how to start. Yu Xian was stunned at first, but soon understood the reason for the abnormal reaction of grandma and dad. Two blushes appeared on his face, and he explained in a serious manner: "Today I was practicing painting and cleaning in the memorial hall. It rained heavily and we all got soaked. Chen Zhe's home is nearby, so he asked me to go back with him to change clothes." Actually, talking about this matter now, Sister Cos also thinks it is a bit outrageous, but at that time she only considered that it was inappropriate not to bring gifts, and did not feel that visiting Chen's parents was abrupt. Maybe it is related to this step, or he has always been present in the future planning. "is it?" But grandma and dad didn't seem to believe it. They looked at each other and saw worry on each other's faces. Fortunately, Yu Xian accidentally added: "Chen Zhe's parents are also at home, and my aunt asked me to bring this to you." "The claw thing?" Grandma took the gift box from Yu Xian, took a look at it and said, "It's just a tonic, but..."
Grandma Yu nodded: "At least it can be seen that Chenzhe's parents are polite people who understand the rules. Chenzhe will not do anything to you." "It wasn't there in the first place!" Yu Xian knew that his grandmother had started to misunderstand him, and said unhappily, "I'll have a meal at their house, and then Chen Zhuo and his father will drive me back." "That's good, that's good..." Yu Xiaoliang also let out a long sigh. Since there is the participation and supervision of the parents, and he heard that they are civil servants and doctors, they should not allow the child to act recklessly. "What's good!" The grandmother was a little relieved about her granddaughter, but she was still angry with her son. "Xian Meier, this is considered meeting the parents! Do you understand?" Grandma glared and said, "When she marries Chen Zhe and the two families meet, are you going to bring that bitch Tang Xiangyue with you?" Rumor has it that the older generation of Sichuan and Chongqing women are very good at scolding, and this can be fully demonstrated in Grandma Yu. "mom." Yu Xiaoliang didn't dare to talk back loudly after being scolded, and could only defend himself in a low voice: "That's why I wanted to let Xian Meier attend Xiao Ye's tenth birthday this time, to try to ease the relationship between the two sides..." Only then did Yu Xian understand what Old Yu was doing. It turned out that Tang Xiangyue's daughter's tenth birthday was coming, and he came to invite himself to attend. The last time we were at Baiyun Airport, Lao Yu mentioned this to me. Logically speaking, if the relationship between the two parties is better, I should go and participate. After all, from a legal point of view, they are considered a "family". However, Tang Xiangyue was the first to treat Yu Xian as an outsider. When Yu Xiaoliang wanted to give Yu Xian living expenses in high school, she would cry and make a big fuss, as if it was her money. That’s fine, cos sister doesn’t care about money, things, or houses at all. She is very tough and can support herself. But Tang Xiangyue once insulted her deceased mother, which was something Yu Xian could not tolerate. So, she refused just like she did at the airport: "I'm not going." "did you see!" Grandma Yu said with relief: "I said Xian Mei'er wouldn't go. She has the same personality as her mother and won't tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes!" Hearing his daughter's refusal, Lao Yu's handsome face, which looked like a Hong Kong and Taiwan male star in the 80s, frowned. "I don't want to see you continue to split like this. After all, there is no essential competition of interests." Yu Xiaoliang said honestly: "I have always wanted to find an opportunity to bring everyone together and resolve those misunderstandings and conflicts..."
Old Yu was telling the truth, ever since Chen's deafening speech exposed his cowardly heart of "cherishing his current life too much that he didn't dare to really care about Yu Xian". After he returned, he reflected on his actions for many days and secretly withdrew some money from his passbook to cover all of Yu Xian's living expenses over the years. At the same time, we also intend to mediate the issues between the two parties. In this way, he would not only be able to openly care for Yu Xian, but also take care of Tang Xiangyue and Liu Ye, the mother and daughter. “No conflict of interest?” Grandma sneered: "That bitch has always wanted this house. Do you think I don't know?" "impossible!" On this point, Yu Xiaoliang's attitude was also very firm: "The house has been adopted under Xian Mei'er's name, no one can take it away!" "Besides..." Yu Xiaoliang rubbed his hands to ease the anxiety in his heart. It seems that it is not easy for him to battle with his mother face to face. "That was just Xiangyue's confused thought before. She hasn't mentioned it recently, and she is also trying her best to invite Xianmeier to Liu Ye's birthday party." Yu Xiaoliang speculated: "I guess she has similar thoughts. After all, it's not good for everyone to be so stiff all the time." "Don't try to persuade me! Anyway, I don't agree with Xian Mei'er going to attend the birthday party of that bastard who came out of nowhere." Grandma angrily scolded him, "Yu Xiaoliang, can't you be a little more upright? Do you have to accept what others say? Xian Mei'er is your biological daughter!" "Mom, I'm doing this so that I can take care of my younger sister Xian in the future..." Apart from anything else, Lao Yu really has a good temper. Even though he was scolded like this, he didn't get angry, but still expressed his feelings in a wronged and weak manner. Except for a few words when he first entered the door, Yu Xian didn't speak again afterwards. Occasionally, I looked at my father and realized that the father who was omnipotent in my heart when I was a child now had some white hair on his temples. His body became more hunched and the wrinkles on his forehead seemed to be deeper. "After mom left, he must have felt very sad all these years." Yu Xian was thinking about it, and suddenly his nose felt a little sore. "I can go..." Yu Xian's calm voice broke the argument between grandma and father. "Xian Meier?" Grandma was a little confused. "Xian Meier!"
Old Yu is happy. "I can also reconcile with Tang Xiangyue." Yu Xian sat on the sofa with his head held high and his chest puffed out, and said quickly and straightforwardly: "But she has to apologize to me and shouldn't say bad things about mom behind her back!" "Xian Meier..." Old Yu looked at his daughter. From his perspective, Yu Xian's face was slightly tilted, her pointed chin was raised, her tightly pursed red lips revealed a stubbornness, and her bright eyes reflected a courage. Her profile is picturesquely beautiful, but also has an unquestionable persistence. The cos sister has more than just the charm and love brain of "Yu Baibai". Don't forget that her "beauty and boldness" shocked the entire Zhixin Middle School in high school. The way those boys treated her, they really wanted to get closer to her, but they were afraid of getting slapped. Yu Xiaoliang obviously understood his daughter and knew that in her current state, her request for an "apology" would be impossible to change. Of course, this condition is not excessive, but I don’t know whether Tang Xiangyue can agree to it. He sent a message to Tang Xiangyue, describing the current situation, thinking that he might need to talk to her more after returning home. Unexpectedly, Tang Xiangyue called directly. At first, Lao Yu thought that Tang Xiangyue was angry and wanted to blame him, so he didn't take it the first time, but put it quietly in his pocket. But Tang Xiangyue kept calling, and the "buzzing" sound of the phone in her pocket made grandma very annoyed. "how?" Grandma asked impatiently: "You brought a bomb with you?" "Ah...no, no." Old Yu said in a tangled tone: "Work, at work." "It's for work." The grandmother particularly disdained her son's hesitation. The whole family, including her granddaughter, were bold in love and hate. How come there was a "genetic mutation" in her son? In Sichuan dialect, it means "I've never gotten up in my life." "Well, I'll go to the kitchen and answer it." Yu Xiaoliang stood up and went to the kitchen. After answering the call, he moved a little further away from his ear to avoid being hurt by Tang Xiangyue's cursing. Unexpectedly, although Tang Xiangyue's tone was urgent, she only blamed Lao Yu for being too slow in answering the phone. "You didn't see it after calling it a few times?" Tang Xiangyue complained, and then asked, "Where is that little hoof...Yu Xian?" "what are you up to?" Yu Xiaoliang asked cautiously.
When Tang Xiangyue heard the subconscious protection in her husband's tone, she suddenly became angry for no reason. No matter what time or what happens, the husband still cares most about the dead woman's daughter. But Tang Xiangyue had her own plans, so she suppressed the curse on her lips and said coldly: "Didn't she ask me to apologize? Put on the speakerphone, I'll say sorry to her on the phone." "Would you like to?" Yu Xiaoliang was a little surprised. This was a bit unlike Tang Xiangyue's usual style of dealing with people. "What can I do if I don't want to?" Tang Xiangyue said in a self-pitying tone: "You hope that Yu Xian and I get along well, otherwise I won't be able to eat well and won't be able to sleep. Don't I feel bad when I see this?" "After all, we are husband and wife now." Tang Xiangyue sighed, "This time, Xiaoye's birthday is also a good opportunity. She has to apologize before she condescends to come here, so I can only apologize." "Thank you, Xiangyue..." Tang Xiangyue's words moved Yu Xiaoliang. Although he was not close to Xiao Ye, he still fulfilled his responsibility as a stepfather to raise her. Maybe Tang Xiangyue saw it, so she wanted to reciprocate by being nicer to Xian Meir. "Humph!" Yu Xiaoliang, who was sighing, suddenly heard a barely perceptible cold snort coming from the microphone. It seems like sarcasm, ridicule, and disdain. "what?" Yu Xiaoliang frowned. "Forehead……" Tang Xiangyue immediately covered up and said, "I didn't say anything just now. Hurry up and give the phone to Yu Xian. I'll apologize to her now. By the way, your mother won't come over, right?" "I guess I heard it wrong." Yu Xiaoliang thought so in his heart, so he put aside his doubts and said, "If you want, the old lady can come over too." "Forget it, forget it. She has always disliked me. Don't curse me on Xiaoye's birthday." Tang Xiangyue refused immediately. The most vicious and unreasonable person in Yu Xiaoliang's family would be his mother, who has a healthy body, a loud voice, and is particularly good at scolding people. Before the two got married, they went to visit according to normal etiquette, but they were beaten out before they even entered the house, and were even chased and scolded all the way to the gate of the community. From then on, Tang Xiangyue developed a psychological fear of the fat old lady, so that no matter how much she coveted the house in Zhusigang, she never dared to set foot here again. The only way is to find a way to trick Yu Xian out and get her away from the protection of that immortal old man. ……
Next, the innocent Yu Xiaoliang came to the living room holding his cell phone with the hands-free function turned on. This strange action made Grandma Yu a little confused: "Are you doing some magic trick, you idiot?" "No no." Yu Xiaoliang scratched his head awkwardly and put the phone in front of Yu Xian. A thin and sharp voice came from it, but it tried to be gentle: "Yu Xian? I'm your Aunt Tang." "Long time no see. How's your study going recently? I think it's vacation time now." "I want to invite you to attend Xiaoye's tenth birthday party, which will be in three days." "I heard from your father that you wanted me to apologize before you came here. Auntie did some things wrong in the past. I was too busy with work and didn't pay enough attention to you. But no matter what, we are still a family." "It's Xiaoye's birthday, please come over. Auntie can bow and apologize to you in person." …… Tang Xiangyue's heartfelt apology relaxed Yu Xian's tense face. Yu Xiaoliang was also very happy, as if he had solved an irreconcilable problem. Only Grandma Yu curled her lips in disdain, took out a handful of melon seeds from her pocket and ate them slowly, as if she didn't take it to heart at all. After she finished her apology over the phone, Grandma Yu spat out a thin piece of melon seed shell from her mouth with a "puff" sound. The shell floated in the air and rolled to Yu Xiaoliang's feet. Old Yu squatted down, picked it up and threw it into the trash can without any disgust. "That woman..." Grandma Yu drooped her eyelids and said to herself, "Not sincere enough." "mom." Old Yu was still not angry at all, and said in a gentle voice: "He apologized, how can it not be sincere enough?" "Har!" Grandma slammed the table and said, "What does an apology mean? I can tell at once that she is a dirty person! Sister Xian, don't go. Stay home and watch TV with grandma, or go on a date with Chen Zhuo." "I've already agreed..." Lao Yu wanted to argue but didn't dare to, so he could only mutter to himself. "I'll go." Yu Xian exhaled lightly: "It's just a meal, it won't be a big problem." "You little doll..." Grandma didn't seem surprised by her granddaughter's decision, as Xian Mei'er was the type of person who kept her promises. "Don't let Xian Mei'er get bullied!" Grandma couldn't persuade Yu Xian, so she could only warn her son harshly.
"How can I bully my own daughter?" Yu Xiaoliang, who had been speaking in a low voice, seemed to suddenly become brave when it came to this topic, and his voice became much louder. Even Yu Xian couldn't help but say, "...I'm not the kind of person who will let others bully me." Grandma thought about it and thought it made sense, so she reluctantly agreed. "Mom, I'll go get some water for you to wash your feet." Seeing that it was almost 11 o'clock, Yu Xiaoliang knew that his mother had the habit of soaking her feet, so he planned to pour some water. Unexpectedly, grandma didn't appreciate it at all and drove him away directly: "I have my sister Xian, who asked you to pretend to be attentive here!" "I'm not pretending..." Lao Yu rubbed his hands again. He wanted to say that he just wanted to express his filial piety, but seeing that his mother didn't like him, he could only pick up his bag and leave dejectedly. "correct." Before leaving, Yu Xiaoliang suddenly remembered something: "Little one, is your cell phone broken? I called several times last night but none of them went through." "Is it?" Yu Xian took it out and took a look, then understood the reason: "It may have shut down automatically due to the rain and water. I will take out the battery and dry it in the sun tonight~" Yu Xiaoliang saw that his own daughter was still using a domestic mobile phone worth several hundred yuan, and was reluctant to replace it with a new one even after it was soaked in water. But Tang Xiangyue kept clamoring to change to a new model of Nokia, which made Lao Yu feel uncomfortable. "I'll buy you a new one when dad gives you his year-end bonus!" Yu Xiaoliang said. "Need not." Yu Xian refused without a second thought, then closed the security door and prepared hot water for grandma to soak her feet. "This Haer has no opinion at all, it's really annoying..." Grandma is still cursing, which probably reflects her disapproval of her descendants. Yu Xian half-knelt and poured warm water on grandma's feet little by little. "Xian Meier~" Grandma was still mumbling indignantly: "Why did you agree just now? There's no need to show some mercy to that bitch!" Yu Xian was silent for a moment, his bangs hanging down, covering his delicate face. After a long while, she finally said softly: "I'm not giving face to Tang Xiangyue, I think... if he can get along with that woman on the surface, the old man will be more comfortable over there. I saw a lot of white hair on his head today..." Grandma was stunned for a moment, put the melon seeds on the table, sighed and said: "You are as kind as your mother, but I always feel that Tang Xiangyue is not so kind..." "It's fine."
Yu Xian raised his head and wiped his grandmother's feet while saying calmly, "I will leave after I finish eating and will definitely not stay any longer. If not, I will take Chen Zhuo with me." If it were in the past, Sister Cos probably wouldn't have thought of bringing Chen to such a complicated family occasion. But today, after meeting his parents after the heavy rain, it seems that it is time for Chen Zhe to get to know the people and things on his side. So sometimes, everything seems to be destined, one thing after another. "Not bad!" Unexpectedly, even grandma agreed. She clapped her hands and said, "I feel a lot more at ease having this idiot by your side." "Why?" Yu Xian found it very interesting and asked with a smile: "You don't know Chen Zhe." "I don't understand him, but I understand you!" Grandma said confidently: "If he can catch you, he can't be as weak as your old man. I believe he can protect you." "I don't want to be a character who needs to be protected!" Yu Xian wiped grandma's feet clean, stood up and stretched, looking confident and cute: "I can also protect Director Chen!" ······ (End of this chapter)
