Chapter 113 My Husband Only Loves His Ex 2
"What's wrong? Come here, granddaughter-in-law, you go and cook with grandma."
Without saying another word, the old lady pulled Qingmo to the old house next door.
"Granddaughter-in-law, are you cold? Come, sit here and warm yourself by the fire and have something to eat."
Then he took Qingmo's hand and said, "My dear granddaughter-in-law, I know Xia Yang has a bad temper. I'm sorry to have wronged you. Please bear with him. In two more years, he will be more grown up. It's not easy for two people to live together. Don't worry, I will definitely go and scold him later."
Qingmo sneered. These two elders in Xia Yang's family always said how good they were to the original owner of this body, but they always told her to be patient, saying that Xia Yang had a bad temper but a good heart and that he would grow up eventually.
Ha, every time Xia Yang loses his temper, they call the original owner and say things like, "Xia Yang had another fight with his dad," "Xia Yang ran away from home again," or "Xia Yang went out drinking again."
Therefore, as the original owner compromised time and time again, his family members all felt that the original owner was a pushover, with no education, no job, and no good looks, and that he was humble and ingratiating in their family.
"Grandma, Xia Yang has a bad temper, and so do I. It's okay, it's okay, we'll understand each other."
After sitting for a while, Qingmo went back to her room. When she opened the door, she saw that Xia Yang was asleep and sleeping soundly. Sometimes she really admired men for being so carefree.
Looking at his face, Qingmo really didn't know how the original owner of this body had gone blind; perhaps beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
This is the eldest grandson of the Xia family, a real gem. I heard he's already a teenager, and his grandmother still carries him to school. No wonder he's developed such a selfish, self-serving, and hypocritical attitude.
She took out a pill from her spatial storage, fed it to Xia Yang, and touched his face, intending to act a bit yandere.
The result! Oh my god, he's so oily, you could pinch oil off his face! Qingmo wiped her hands in disgust.
This drug will slowly weaken Xia Yang, causing his organs to fail little by little, and all she has to do is watch the show from the sidelines and play the role of a devoted and loyal wife.
The next day, Xia Yang indeed developed a high fever and kept groaning that he felt unwell.
"Wife, wife, take me to the hospital, I feel so bad."
His grandmother was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, pacing around him in circles, while his father, though saying he was anxious, showed no sign of anxiety on his face.
Qingmo and her stepmother stood there idly, as if they were outsiders in the house.
"Momo, come with me to take care of Yangyang. We're going to the hospital," Grandma said.
"Oh, Grandma, I'm afraid that won't work. I've had a bit of a cold these past few days, and I'm worried I might infect Xia Yang." Qingmo coughed weakly, feigning weakness.
Seeing her like this, everyone ignored her and rushed to take her to the hospital. After they left, Qingmo leaned close to her stepmother and whispered, "Auntie, why didn't you go with her?"
The stepmother rolled her eyes: "I'm not his biological mother. If you're not going, why should I go?"
After saying that, he picked up his bag and prepared to go out to play mahjong, then asked, "Are you coming?"
Qingmo was a little surprised, but entertainment was her favorite activity, especially one that wealthy women loved.
"Go! Go! Go."
She hurriedly went back to her room to grab her bag and followed. The two sisters, being good friends, went out to find some companions.
Xia's father and grandmother went to the hospital, leaving Xia's grandfather alone paralyzed on the bed. No one remembered him anymore, since the two women, who were about the same age, were not the type to take care of others.
Around midnight, Qingmo won a little money and happily returned with her stepmother. The two of them were exhausted from playing so hard.
Xia's father parked his car in the yard. The two looked at each other and parted ways. The sound of the stepmother arguing with Xia's father came from upstairs. Qingmo fell asleep as soon as she lay down. Who would understand? Could she rush up and give her father-in-law two big slaps?
The next day, Qingmo slept until late morning and didn't get up until Grandma Xia came to call her for lunch, at which point she finally managed to get up.
At the dinner table, he and his stepmother exchanged a glance; both looked utterly listless and lifeless.
"Well, Momo, Yangyang is still in the hospital, and we don't know what's going on. Why don't you go and take care of him?" Grandma Xia said.
Qingmo paused in her chopsticks, "Grandma, no, I'm not well yet, I'm afraid I'll pass on my illness to Xia Yang."
Grandma Xia said, "If I go to the hospital, there will be no one to take care of your grandfather. He didn't eat anything all day yesterday, so I had to come back and cook for him." Her tone was reproachful.
Qingmo looked completely innocent: "Ah! I don't know. My stepmother had a headache yesterday, so I went out with her."
Upon hearing this, the stepmother immediately chimed in, "Oh, Mom, we didn't mean it. We were both feeling unwell yesterday. I'll stay home and take care of Dad today."
Grandma Xia snorted and looked at Qingmo, "And what about you?"
Qingmo's eyes lit up. "Grandma, I'll cook for Grandpa at home too." Grandma Xia nodded in satisfaction.
After the two people went to the hospital, the two women, mother and daughter-in-law, sat on the sofa eating sunflower seeds.
The stepmother chuckled and said, "Why have you changed your ways? You're not even taking care of your husband anymore. Aren't you worried at all?"
Qingmo spat out a mouthful of sunflower seed shells in annoyance, clapped her hands, and said, "When I was sick, I didn't see him take care of me. Besides, you're a stepmother, so why don't you show some maternal love?"
Upon hearing this, the stepmother scoffed, "Ha! I'm a stepmother, not a biological mother. Did I marry his father at my age because he's old?"
Sure enough, female friendships can form unexpectedly. After a game of mahjong, the two women became much closer and started sharing everything with each other.
Sure enough, the fates of those who seek love and those who seek money are different. The original owner of this body suffered every day, doing everything at home but rarely receiving a smile. Yet, with just a little coquetry from his stepmother, the old man would give her his life.
Since it's the dead of winter and they can't go out for a game, the two of them just played duo queue together. "Hey, hey, hey, can you please not come down here, Yao?"
"Oh dear! I just wanted to help you a little." As she spoke, her stepmother punched Qingmo with her little fist.
This... even if Xia's father didn't like it, she, a straight woman of steel, couldn't stand it. Using this kind of test for cadres, she said, "Question men, understand men, become men."
Come here, Yao Mei, climb onto my body, and I'll take you flying.
The two of them quickly gained points, while Xia Ye was extremely thirsty and called out to him for a long time without anyone responding. When it was time to eat, the two of them casually cooked two dishes and sent them over.
When Master Xia saw the food that had been delivered, his face immediately darkened. "Is this how you two are going to treat me? No one has come to see me all day."
Qingmo shrugged nonchalantly, "Grandpa, neither of us can cook, and besides, it's bound to be awkward for a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to be alone together." The stepmother covered her mouth and chuckled to herself.
Master Xia was so angry he wanted to explode, but he was helpless, after all, he was just a stall owner.
Xia Yang's illness did not improve; he suffered from recurring high fevers and vomiting. The others had no time to care about anything else but Xia Yang.
