Chapter 24 The terminally ill mother-in-law who killed her daughter-in-law 8

Xie Yuan was yelling loudly, but he was too embarrassed to call the police. Family disgrace should not be made public. Being stared at by the property management with strange eyes was already uncomfortable. If the students knew that he was kicked out of the house by his wife, how could he go on stage to give lectures in the future?

"You can stop me from going home, but you should at least let me get my change of clothes."

Ye Zhiqiu was not the kind of unkind person. She could take the clothes, but someone had to watch over them. She was afraid that Ye's mother would be soft-hearted and fail to do the job well, so she specially invited the property staff to supervise together.

Except for the clothes of the mother and the child, she was not allowed to take anything else. Most of the things in the house were bought by her, and she was not allowed to take even a piece of paper.

Xie's mother was unwilling but was dragged away by Xie Yuan, still muttering, "Divorce is divorce, who's afraid of who?"

After the mother and son left, Ye's mother spoke anxiously: "What are you trying to do? Don't you plan to live with Xie Yuan?" After that, without waiting for Ye Zhiqiu to answer, she began to talk about how life is not easy for single mothers, and used the example of someone at work.

A person has to take care of a child, work to earn money, and take care of housework at the same time. If the child gets sick, there is no one to help. Even if you have money to hire someone to help take care of the child, you have to be both a mother and a father. Without help, you are burning the candle at both ends.

"Don't worry, I won't initiate a divorce." Ye Zhiqiu only wants to be a widower.

Ye's mother misunderstood, thinking that she was just teaching Xie Yuan a lesson and wanted to send Xie's mother back to her hometown. When she was young, she also had a mother-in-law, and she knew the difficulties of the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so it would be good for Xie's mother to go back.

On the other side, Xie Yuan didn't expect Ye Zhiqiu to be so extreme that he could only take clothes. He moved his things with a gloomy face, and at the same time, he was thinking about where to rent a house, preferably a free house.

In fact, he has a single dormitory in the school, which he usually uses for lunch break, so it is not impossible for him to move in. The problem is that there is also Xie's mother. If he moves in, other colleagues will definitely ask about the situation. It is better for him to live outside.

Living off campus would avoid the gossip of colleagues, but renting a house would cost money. He didn't have much money, so after paying the deposit and rent, he had to save the remaining money, but fortunately he had a salary every month.

The house that the mother and son found temporarily was not very good. Xie's mother was disgusted and showed it on her face. She didn't understand why Ye Zhiqiu dared to kick the man out.

She could only urge Xie Yuan to find a way to win back Ye Zhiqiu's heart. She couldn't go back to her hometown in disgrace.

Xie Yuan roared helplessly: "You only know how to criticize me, what can I do? If you hadn't told her that I didn't need to stay at the hospital, she wouldn't have been so angry as to kick me out."

"You can blame me, you didn't object at the time." Xie's mother felt more sad than surprised. She didn't expect her little son, whom she had spoiled since childhood, to treat her like this. If she had known, she would not have come to the provincial capital to help.

Xie's mother wanted to go back to her hometown, but she was worried that Xie Yuan would go hungry because he didn't know how to cook. After some hesitation, she decided to stay. Since her son disliked her for not doing it right, she would change.

Xie's mother changed her previous behavior and brought chicken soup to the hospital every day to visit Ye Zhiqiu and his daughter. Unfortunately, it was useless to enter the ward. Ye Zhiqiu did not accept her kindness at all, and even Ye's mother ignored her existence.

The chicken soup he brought with him had to be taken back as it was, and in the end it all went into Xie Yuan's stomach.

In the hospital, Ye's mother also advised Ye Zhiqiu: "It's not a good idea for your mother-in-law to take care of her every day. You should just forgive them. People in small places tend to favor boys over girls. Send her back to her hometown and see her once a year. It won't affect you and Niuniu."

"No hurry, wait until I'm discharged." Ye Zhiqiu was anxious to be discharged. Ever since Xie's mother came to visit, not only Ye's mother but also other people in the ward began to persuade her to forget it.

Why should she let it go? If she hadn't come, Xie's mother would have killed the original owner. There was a life in between, and even if the original owner wanted to be a saint and let it go, she didn't agree.

Xie's mother brought chicken soup to the hospital again and found out that Ye Zhiqiu had been discharged. She wanted to visit him at home, but was stopped by the property security guard at the gate of the community.

Without Ye Zhiqiu's permission, she couldn't get in. Only then did she feel a little regretful. She shouldn't have urged her daughter-in-law to have a second child just because she gave birth to a granddaughter, and she shouldn't have abandoned the mother and the granddaughter.

She regretted it, but Xie Yuan regretted it even more than her.

After deducting the rent, utilities, and child support for Ye Zhiqiu from his newly-paid salary, he had very little money left. He had to admit that without Ye Zhiqiu, it would be difficult for him to support himself in the provincial capital with his salary, let alone get married and have children.

It was obvious that Ye Zhiqiu would not change his mind anytime soon, so he could only blame Xie's mother for the issue of saving money. "Mom, you have nothing to do here, why don't you go back home?"

"What did you say?" Xie's mother actually guessed that her younger son had no money, and was planning to find a cleaning job to supplement the family income. However, she did not find a job and was instead sent back to her hometown.

Since he had already said it, Xie Yuan had no reason to feel embarrassed: "It's not good for my dad to be alone in his hometown. If you go back earlier, he can have a hot meal."

"Okay! That's how you are filial to me. I'm not too old to be unable to move, and I can still work, yet you despise me." Xie's mother felt sad, but she still couldn't bear to blame her son.

She blamed all the mistakes on Ye Zhiqiu. What could her son have done wrong? If Ye Zhiqiu hadn't made a scene and threatened his son, how could he have sent her back home?

Xie's mother returned home sadly, and Xie Yuan was relieved. He could finally swallow his pride and go to Ye Zhiqiu's house to ask for forgiveness in person, but he didn't dare to do so when Xie's mother was around.

"Zhi Qiu, I was wrong. What do you want in exchange for your forgiveness? Can't I change for the better in the future?" Xie Yuan begged humbly.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect that Xie Yuan couldn't enter the community, so he would find where his parents lived. This is an old community, there is no property security, strangers can enter at will, which gave him an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Ye's mother had no choice but to call Ye Zhiqiu over to deal with Xie Yuan's request for mercy. She asked her if she wanted a divorce, but she said no. If she didn't want to divorce, then she didn't. It would be good for her granddaughter to have a complete family, but she still refused to forgive her son-in-law.

She is old and cannot understand the thoughts of young people nowadays. Xie's mother has already returned to her hometown. She said that she should forgive Xie Yuan and live a good life with the young couple in the future.

There is no such thing as a couple without quarrels and conflicts. Now that they have a child, they should spend their whole life together for the sake of the child. Not only Ye's mother thinks so, but the neighbors around her also think so.

Everyone helped Ye's mother persuade Ye Zhiqiu, Xie Yuan did nothing wrong. The man was busy at work, so it was understandable that he couldn't stay in the hospital. When they had a few children before, the men in the family didn't even stay in the hospital to take care of them, and some of them only showed up after the confinement period.

Even so, life still has to go on and no one can keep talking about divorce.

"I won't divorce." Ye Zhiqiu reiterated. She didn't want to divorce, but she didn't want to live with Xie Yuan anymore. It was good for them to live separately.
