"It's okay, we know you're doing this for our own good. But now that we know, we know what's going on. We won't foolishly come looking for our granddaughter again. Mian, since we've made things clear, we won't disturb you any longer."
Then, the two old men stood up …
Auntie Ning handed a dirty bag to Huo Mien. "These are the mountain produce we brought this time … some wild mushrooms and bracken. We picked them ourselves in the mountains, washed them, and dried them for winter. Since we can't find them, you can keep them, as long as you don't mind."
"No, no, no, Uncle, Auntie … I don't mind, it's just that it's not easy for you guys. You're already so old, but you still have to pick them from the mountains. You should keep them for yourselves."
"No, we don't have anything else, but we have a lot of these things. You city people call them green food … Keep them, we have a lot more."
Ignoring Huo Mien's objections, Uncle Ning stuffed the bag into Huo Mien's hands …
"Uncle, Auntie … I'll drive you guys to the coach station, so you don't have to take the bus for too long."
Then, Huo Mien drove the two old men to the coach station and bought them tickets, some food, and water.
Finally, Huo Mien took out 3,000 yuan and handed it to Auntie Ning.
She rarely carried cash with her and only had around 3,000 yuan in her wallet. Most of the time, she used her credit card.
"Auntie, take this money and eat something good with my uncle. You're old, don't worry about your health."
"No, we can't take it. Kids … it's not easy for you to earn money."
"It's okay, take it, Uncle, Auntie … To be honest, I have a good job now, and I'm married … The husband I found is very good, and I don't lack money … Zhiyuan's not doing too well right now, don't worry too much. I hope he can get back on his feet. Take this money, it's a small token of my appreciation."
It was obvious that the two old men of the Ning Family didn't want to take it …
They kept on arguing with Huo Mien … and it was very intense.
However, Huo Mien really wanted to give it to them. She suddenly felt sorry for Ning Zhiyuan's parents.
She had worked hard for her son all her life, but in the end, she couldn't even see her granddaughter …
Unable to resist Huo Mien's insistence, the two tremblingly took the money and carefully put it in their pockets.
Then, she shook Huo Mien's hand gratefully. "My child, you have a kind heart. The Bodhisattva will bless you … We don't have much at home, but we do have a lot of free-range eggs, wild vegetables, and mushrooms. Whenever you want to eat, just drive over. We promise you'll have enough."
"Alright." Huo Mien smiled.
In the end, she watched as the two old people's bus left …
Huo Mien felt terrible. She liked Ning Zhiyuan's parents very much. They were simple and kind.
It was a pity that they didn't have a son who didn't make them worry …
It was already three o 'clock in the afternoon when they returned to South Side …
Just as Huo Mien was about to head upstairs, his phone rang …
"Sis … are you at work?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Brother-in-law's mother is here again … She's so annoying … she's fighting with her again."
After Jing Zhixin finished speaking, Huo Mien couldn't wait to go downstairs.
Then, he drove back to the old house …
The yard was filled with neighbors …
This time, Qin Chu's mother came alone. She was dressed in designer clothes and carried an Louis Vuitton bag in her hand.
She cursed out loud in the yard. When Huo Mien returned home, he heard the most vicious sentence …
"Your daughter is a chicken that can't lay eggs. How long has she been married? Huh? She can't even lay a single egg … I'm telling you, the Qin Family doesn't want a daughter-in-law like her. If she can't have any children, then get out of here as soon as possible. Don't think of using the name of A Young Lady of the Qin Family to cheat people every day. She's so full of herself. "
After hearing this, Huo Mien felt very bad …
"Sis … you're back?" Zhixin saw Huo Mien and immediately ran over.
