Chapter 391 What if Shen Yueyue doesn't leave?
After Xiaosong finished speaking, he looked at Geng Changshuo with a hint of anticipation on his face, as if he was waiting for his father's affirmation. He asked softly, "Dad, do you think I'm right?"
At this time, people around applauded, expressing their agreement and appreciation for Komatsu's views.
However, Wei Yuchen frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said:
"I think there is a third reason why he is to blame. He clearly knew that Shen Yueyue had ill intentions towards him, but Shen Yueyue still managed to scheme against him. This shows that he was not on guard enough, which gave the other party an opportunity to take advantage of him."
Geng Changshuo listened to Wei Yuchen's words, thought about it for a moment, and then nodded in agreement: "It can't be said that Old Xu didn't have any guard at all, but he still underestimated Shen Yueyue after all."
Wei Yuchen said: "So, we should not look down on anyone, even the elderly, women, children, even beggars, etc."
The old lady was very moved after hearing this:
"I heard a story from my old family about a general who was so powerful that no one could defeat him.
The opponent had no choice but to ask his adviser what to do. The adviser gave him an idea and asked him to bribe the general's groom.
The opponent tried to save the situation, so he found the general's groom and gave him 100 taels of silver.
After the groom got the silver, he secretly pricked a needle into the horse's hoof.
During the battle, the horse’s hooves hurt, so it dared not push hard, and in the end the general was defeated…”
Wei Yumiao and others were very moved after hearing this.
Even Gu Yu'an, who had always been a transparent person at home, shared his experience:
"The reason why I was hunted by spies when I gave birth to Xiaoshuo was because I had a bad temper and scolded an aunt who took care of me. The aunt held a grudge and revealed my whereabouts to the spies..."
As Gu Yu'an spoke, he looked up at Geng Changshuo, feeling extremely guilty.
If she had not been so willful at that time, how could she have been separated from her son for so many years and let him suffer so much! She couldn't help but think of every little thing that happened back then, her heart filled with regret and self-blame.
Everyone seemed to know what Gu Yu'an was thinking, but no one said it out loud. After all, everyone has their own past that is difficult to talk about, and this past is often the eternal pain in their hearts.
Perhaps because of her past experiences, Gu Yu'an was too afraid of attracting attention. She always stayed quietly in the corner, trying not to let others notice her. However, deep in her heart, she longed to regain the love and warmth of her family.
At this moment, Liu Chunmei's son woke up and started crying loudly. No matter how everyone tried to comfort him, he refused to stop crying.
His crying was like a fuse, instantly igniting the emotions of the other children. For a moment, the whole room was filled with children's crying.
Seeing this, the old lady quickly said, "The child may be hungry, why not feed him some milk?" As she said that, she prepared to make milk powder.
However, when she was about to put down the doll in her arms, the little doll held on to the old aunt and refused to let go.
"Oh, little ancestor, please let go, or you will starve." The old lady said jokingly.
Gu Yumiao was also holding a baby at the time. Seeing this, she prepared to hand the child to Xiaosong and make the milk powder herself.
"I'm going clubbing!"
Gu Yu'an suddenly stood up and offered to make the milk powder.
Everyone looked at her in surprise, as if they couldn't believe their ears. After all, Gu Yu'an was usually so timid and cowardly, and she almost never spoke.
"Are you okay, Auntie?" Wei Yumiao asked worriedly.
Usually everyone takes more care of Gu Yu'an. At most, they let Gu Yu'an look after the children, cook, sweep the floor, make milk powder, etc. No one has ever asked her to do anything.
Gu Yu'an gritted her teeth and said firmly: "Don't worry, I can do it!" After that, she turned and went to the kitchen.
Looking at Gu Yu'an's departing back, everyone's heart was filled with warmth. Perhaps, this once invisible man was gradually regaining his courage and confidence.
Not long after, Gu Yu'an came over with the prepared milk powder. She lowered her voice and said:
"I've never soaked it before, so I don't know if it's appropriate."
The old lady took the milk powder and looked at it carefully. Although it looked a little thin, it was generally acceptable, so she praised:
"It's pretty good. It's amazing that I can make it like this for the first time."
Then, she gently dropped a drop of milk powder onto her hand and felt whether the temperature was appropriate. After confirming that it was appropriate, she carefully put the pacifier into the mouth of the child in her arms.
The milk powders in Wei Yuchen's home were specially stockpiled by her in the end times. Not only were they of high quality, but more importantly, they all contained special spiritual energy. The water used to brew the milk powder was also diluted spiritual spring water. The milk powder brewed in this way was sweet and delicious.
The child of Political Commissar Xu hugged the bottle tightly, sucking it in big gulps, and was completely reluctant to let go.
Wei Yuchen and Geng Changshuo couldn't help laughing after seeing this. Geng Changshuo even raised his eyebrows at Wei Yuchen.
Wei Yuchen certainly knew what he meant. She had always felt that Liu Chunmei was too good to her and she didn't know how to repay her. Geng Changshuo was just teasing himself, saying that now, his wish had finally come true.
Naturally, everyone didn't understand what the couple was talking about, but that didn't stop them from continuing to talk about their gossip.
Wei Yumiao said with some disdain: "We shouldn't have let Shen Yueyue come here in the first place. She is a weirdo and you can tell at first glance that she is not a good person. You don't know that I feel uncomfortable when I see her."
The old lady said solemnly, "That Shen Yueyue is not someone you can easily mess with. Even though Political Commissar Xu didn't do anything to her, you still have to be careful that she might bite you back later. A woman like this is very risk-taking. Once you get involved with her, it's hard to get rid of her."
Xiao Song replied indignantly: "It's all Uncle Xu's stepmother's fault. If she hadn't forced Uncle Xu, how could Uncle Xu fall into such a predicament!"
Xiao Bai said firmly: "Uncle Xu is just too soft-hearted. If it were me, I would definitely not accept it. The worst that could happen is that I would completely cut off ties with my stepmother."
Gu Yu'an shook his head slightly and said earnestly, "You kids think things are too simple. Too much rigidity will lead to failure. Your Uncle Xu is right to do this. However, he still lacks some means."
Geng Changshuo curiously asked: "What means are missing?"
Wei Yuchen also asked: "Mom, what do you mean by this?
Others also focused their eyes on her face.
Gu Yu'an shrank back, then plucked up his courage and said:
"It's not a big deal. Political Commissar Xu only needs to find the elders in the family and analyze the pros and cons for them. Let them understand how much loss the entire family and even the entire village will suffer if someone like him is destroyed. In this way, even if the stepmother plays any tricks, the villagers will not allow it."
"Great, Mom, this is a brilliant move." Wei Yuchen was amazed at Gu Yu'an's wisdom. If it were her, she would probably do the same as Xiao Bai and choose to break up with her stepmother.
Geng Changshuo also nodded repeatedly, thinking that this was the most appropriate way: "If Old Xu can't deal with Shen Yueyue, you might as well try this method."
Gu Yu'an nodded slightly, with an indescribable joy in his eyes.
Wei Yuchen, Geng Changshuo and others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. They had been worried that Gu Yu'an would not be able to come out. Now they can rest assured.
"What if Shen Yueyue doesn't leave?"
The old aunt raised an urgent question.
