CHAPTER 327: CHAPTER 326: RESOLUTELY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE

Yuan Bing watched as he was about to turn back to the courtyard, clearly not intending to take him inside, then laughed: "Don’t believe what I say? I’m not wrong, I’m just waiting here for your wife. I believe people like you would definitely not owe us this money, right?" His tone was full of sarcasm.

He didn’t believe it; Bai Fanglan dared to tell the truth! Once such a matter is known by her in-laws, how could she be okay? So Yuan Bing thought she would definitely hide it and discuss the money issue with him.

He didn’t expect this woman to give it all at once, even three thousand or two thousand would be enough for him to squander for a while.

Wang Hu heard her words, didn’t turn back, but accelerated his pace, striding inside. He didn’t understand why his wife would owe money, and although this Yuan Bing seemed amiable, he always felt that this person had a gangster-like vibe, clearly not a good person.

It makes one wonder about his wife’s relationship with this person. Could there be something his wife is hiding from him?

Just then, he saw his mother carrying a bowl of soup downstairs. Seeing her son had returned, she merely nodded and headed to the kitchen, not wanting to talk, and Wang Hu slightly furrowed his brows.

His mother had always been optimistic, but after taking care of Bai Fanglan, the smile on her face had become increasingly rare.

Her whole being was already mentally exhausted, and now she was too lazy to speak a word to her son.

Wang Hu delivered the dishes to the kitchen, just in time to see his mother pour the soup down the drain.

Wang Hu said, "Is this chicken soup? It’s been simmering for so long, why waste it like this?"

"She won’t drink it," Mrs. Wang’s tone was harsh.

"I’ll drink it if she won’t. Why waste it like this?"

"Your wife!" Mrs. Wang’s voice trembled; "I really regret it. If I had known this, I would’ve made you divorce her from the beginning. I kindly sent it over for her to drink, and what did she do! Not a single nice word, just bluntly said: I don’t drink it, take it away! Does that sound reasonable to you? On a hot day, my hours of effort just wasted like that! I deserve it! From today I won’t serve anymore, you take care of your wife yourself."

Wang Hu sighed: "She’s pregnant now, could you bear with it a little longer? I’ll find a nanny, would that be alright?"

"Didn’t she chase away the last nanny? Is it easy to find a good nanny now? I think you should go live in the army dormitory. Now her belly is over three months pregnant, it’s stable, I never want to see her again, I wouldn’t mind doing more work actually, for my grandson, but she treats me like a servant, with no respect, I really can’t stand it!" Mrs. Wang wasn’t from an ordinary family, how could she tolerate such a daughter-in-law!

Wang Hu nodded: "I understand. I’m sorry, mom, I’ve been so busy with work lately, I didn’t think about anything else. This matter is my oversight, I’ll talk to her soon. I’ll have her apologize to you."

"No need, I’ve come to realize, Bai Fanglan doesn’t care about our Wang Family at all. She thinks none of us treat her right, no matter how much I serve her, there won’t be anything good, I won’t bother. I’m not trying to blame you, after all, it’s us who pushed you to marry quickly, it’s our own doing. I’m just too old to bear it." Mrs. Wang sighed, sat down and massaged her legs: "Once you leave, it’ll count as being filial to me."

Mrs. Wang felt angry thinking about it, whose daughter-in-law is as rude as Bai Fanglan? Normally, they wouldn’t make a sound in front of the mother-in-law, hesitant even when the mother-in-law puts on a face, but not her, every day with the tantrums and fights! I’m truly unfortunate!

"Mom, it’s my fault..."

"Enough, I don’t want to hear your apology, I’m tired and want to rest. Inform your wife, move out soon." After speaking, she tossed the bowl into the sink and went into her room to sleep.

Wang Hu stood quietly for a while, then washed the bowl clean, and went upstairs. He kept thinking about how to talk to her.

Bai Fanglan was lying on the bed crying, she didn’t even know why, feeling very unhappy, sad and sorrowful, the more she thought, the more life seemed meaningless. After angering her mother-in-law away, she regretted it but couldn’t swallow her pride to apologize, and just cried.

Her husband didn’t love her, has found someone else. Her in-laws didn’t like her, her grandfather didn’t care about her matters now, pregnant with a child of unknown paternity, suffering from pregnancy, and no one cares.

She covered her face, crying incessantly, feeling her future was pitch black.

Wang Hu saw his wife like this, furrowed his brows slightly, then went over and patted her shoulder: "Bai Fanglan, can we talk?"

"Go away! I don’t want to talk to you!" She pushed away Wang Hu’s wrist, looking at him irritably: "You shouldn’t have married me! I’m not your colleague, I know nothing about your work, just causing you trouble, why would you choose me! If I hadn’t married you, I wouldn’t be living so miserably now!"

Wang Hu’s anger surged instantly, but looking at her big belly and expression of grief, he held it in.

"We’re husband and wife, many of my comrades have married uneducated women, but they live quite well. You’re a medical university graduate, others envy you, don’t belittle yourself. I’ve never resented you for not understanding my work."

Bai Fanglan glanced at Wang Hu: "Didn’t expect you’d say this, is it because you feel guilty for being with that woman, that’s why you’re compensating me?"

"Bai Fanglan, do you have to be this way? You always say I don’t know how to talk, unwilling to communicate, but I’m trying to talk to you nicely, and yet you..."

"No, that’s not what I mean." Bai Fanglan felt a bit regretful, sat up, and said: "I’m just bothered, really bothered to death! I don’t even know why. Sorry."

"If you’re in a bad mood, you can tell me, I’ll help you relieve it, but my mother is your elder. You need to be mindful when speaking and acting. Mom spent a day cooking chicken soup for you, in this hot weather, you know how it feels to be in the kitchen for hours, without saying a single nice word, just rejecting her kindness, how do you think she feels?"

Bai Fanglan lowered her head, quietly shedding tears, thinking about her actions indeed being wrong, and didn’t say anything further.

After a while, she said: "I’ll go apologize to her right away. I was just momentarily agitated, didn’t think it through. Now I realize I was wrong."
