Chapter 123 Getting Picked Up in the Park
"who"
Huang's mother knocked on the Li family's door, and Huang Shaomin dried his hands and went to open it.
"Mom, what brings you here?"
"You disobedient brat! You didn't even visit your dad when he was in the hospital. Are you trying to drive me crazy?"
"Mom, don't yell, come in first. I was just afraid Dad would get angry again if he saw me."
Li's parents went out, and Li Weijie was sleeping upstairs. He went out to play last night and didn't come back until after 3 a.m.
"What were you doing just now? Where is the rest of the Li family?"
Huang's mother looked at her daughter wearing an apron. Today, none of the Li family members were at work, so why was no one home?
She was still thinking of going to their house to discuss the wedding banquet for her daughter, because her daughter couldn't be with Li Weijie in such an ambiguous way.
"I'm washing the dishes, Weijie is sleeping, and his parents went out early this morning."
"Wash the dishes? The Li family has a housekeeper, why are you washing the dishes?"
My daughter washes dishes very rarely at home, so how come she started washing dishes after only three days at the Li family's house?
"Li Weijie's mother told me not to go out to work anymore, but to stay at home and do some chores. It's all Dad's fault for getting me assigned to teach in the countryside; how am I supposed to go to work now?"
These days, it's easy to apply to go to the countryside, but it's not easy to apply to come back.
"You're really going to drive me crazy. I've served you for over twenty years, and now you're serving someone else. I'm sitting here today waiting for Li Weijie's parents to come back so I can ask them when they're going to hold a banquet for you two."
"His mother said we shouldn't have a wedding banquet now, we should wait until I have a son. Mom, stop making a fuss, come home now."
On their way home, she mentioned wanting to have a wedding banquet, but Li Weijie found her annoying and said that since they had already registered their marriage, there was no need for a banquet.
"Huang Shaomin, are you out of your mind? How could you agree to this? What if you don't have a son? Then you won't hold the banquet?!"
Huang Shaomin had actually thought about it, but she didn't dare to say it aloud. Besides, Li Weijie said he wouldn't hold a banquet, and his mother said they would hold one after a son was born, which she thought made perfect sense.
"Mom, how could you curse me? I'm sure I'll give birth to a son."
"Go and wake Li Weijie up. I want to ask him if his family has gone too far by not giving a bride price or even holding a wedding banquet."
"Hurry up!" Huang's mother urged angrily as she saw her daughter standing there.
"What's all this noise so early in the morning? It's so annoying."
Li Weijie came downstairs angrily. He had been woken up by Huang's mother and was full of rage.
"Li Weijie, when are you and Xiaomin planning to hold your wedding banquet?"
"What a load of rubbish! If she doesn't want to marry me, you can take her home right now. Huang Shaomin, if your mother bothers me again, you can get out of my house right now."
"Li Weijie, you, you, you..."
Huang's mother was so angry she couldn't speak. Li Weijie didn't even glance at her before turning around and going back to sleep.
"Mom, please stop making a scene."
"Huang Shaomin, do you have any conscience? I'm doing this for your own good."
"Mom, keep your voice down, don't wake Weijie up. My affairs are none of your business, you should go home."
After Huang Shaomin finished speaking, he pushed her mother out and then closed the door.
"Huang Shaomin, open the door quickly."
"Mom, you should leave now! Don't come back again."
Then she went back to the kitchen to continue washing the dishes. She still needed to go to the market to buy groceries and cook. Before leaving, Li's mother said she wanted to have fish soup for lunch, so she had to go early to buy it and cook it.
Huang's mother knocked on the door for a while, and seeing that Huang Shaomin didn't come out to open it, she left dejectedly.
"Mom, where are you going? Come and eat quickly."
Huang Shaosong noticed that his mother's eyes were red, clearly from crying. Huang's father glanced at her without speaking; after decades of marriage, he knew her well. She must have gone to find Huang Shaomin, and it seemed she'd been rebuffed.
"Shaosong, your sister..."
"Mom, I don't have a younger sister. If you're not hungry, you can go home. Dad will be staying with me for the next few days."
Huang Shaosong was worried that his father would overthink things at home, which would be bad for his health. He didn't feel comfortable leaving his mother to take care of his grandson, even though he was asking Huang to help look after him here.
"Shaosong, she's your own sister."
"Mom, is what she did to me something my own sister would do?"
"Alright! If you want to stay, then take good care of An'an and don't mention that rebellious daughter again. If you don't want to take care of An'an, then go home and stop causing trouble all the time."
"I…"
Huang's mother left in tears, leaving only Huang's father, Huang Shaosong, and An'an at home. Lin Xingyao was on duty today and didn't come home for lunch.
Xia Yichu has already left. She told Lin Xingyao that she wanted to go back to Pengcheng for a few days before visiting her uncle. Actually, she runs a guesthouse near People's Park; she's worried about Huang Shaomin until she's dealt with him.
She didn't want anyone to know about this, especially her sister. Huang Shaosong outwardly said he wouldn't interfere with Huang Shaomin, but she was still his sister. If he knew what Xia Yichu had done to Huang Shaomin, it would definitely create a rift between him and her sister.
No one should ever hurt her family in this lifetime, and she still needs to find time to visit the Li family. The Li family has a secret room containing not only embezzled public funds but also evidence of Li's father's corruption.
"Hey girl, why are you sitting here all alone? Are you waiting for your boyfriend?"
Suddenly, a woman in her twenties approached her and struck up a conversation. She had seen Xia Yichu several times in the park. A couple of days ago, she was holding a child, but today she was sitting here reading a book by herself.
"No"
Where do you live? How old are you? Are you in school?
Xia Yichu became wary when she heard the woman inquiring about her family situation. She looked up at the woman in front of her. The woman had a round face, which made her look very approachable, and she was dressed simply.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm here with my child, and I saw you sitting here alone, so I came over to chat with you."
Xia Yichu remembered seeing the woman in the park several times, indeed with her child. During the day, it was always the couple who came together, and in the evening, the whole family would come with a boy who looked about five or six years old.
"I'm in college. My sister is married and lives in the county town. She comes here to visit during her summer vacation."
Xia Yichu had been wandering around here for several days without encountering any human traffickers. Although the woman in front of her didn't seem like a trafficker, she figured it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
"You're so beautiful, do you have a boyfriend?"
"No"
Hearing Xia Yichu say she was single, the woman became even more excited. Single, a college student, and beautiful—this was exactly the kind of person she wanted to find.
"Mom, I'm thirsty," a little boy said as he ran over.
"Afu, call her sister."
"Hello, sister."
The little boy shouted at Xia Yichu, his eyes fixed on her.
"Hello."
Xia Yichu felt extremely uncomfortable under his gaze. Before, when she looked at the boy from afar, she didn't think anything of it. But now that they were so close, the little boy seemed strange to her.
Xia Yichu couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong. After finishing his water, the little boy didn't go play but sat between Xia Yichu and his mother.
"Pretty lady, could you help me get the ball?"
A little boy kicked the soccer ball to Xia Yichu's feet and ran over, covered in sweat.
"Okay, here you go."
"Thank you, beautiful lady."
After getting the ball, he ran off to play again, and Xia Yichu stared at the little boy running away. Now she finally realized what was wrong with the little boy sitting next to her: an adult face, a child's body.
Could he be a dwarf, old but not tall? The thought that the little boy sitting next to her might actually be an adult man made Xia Yichu immediately stand up and leave.
