Chapter 787 - 422: Hurry and Call Her Sister-in-Law (Part 2)

"Not just her alone."

Li Qiyuan frowned and said, "What about Wenyue and Manning, what’s their stance on this? If they see me going to Hangzhou, will they tattle to Mr. and Mrs. Huang?"

"No, they won’t."

Li Peifeng was somewhat confident about this. Seeing Li Qiyuan’s skepticism, he added, "They’ll come to our house later to wish you a Happy New Year and see Yilan. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them yourself."

"They’re coming this year too?!"

At the same time, the conversation in the living room between father and son and the chat between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the bedroom reached a consensus.

In fact, both Old Li and Old Yu weren’t surprised by the visit of the two women, Wu and Xu, because Li Peifeng had given them a heads-up. However, facing Zhao Qingge, Yu Huizhi feigned ignorance, showing a little surprise mixed with slight disdain, as if to say: ’Ugh, during the New Year, why are they coming to create trouble?’

This attitude was seventy percent fake and thirty percent real, intentionally put on for Zhao Qingge to see. Zhao Qingge knew this too and let out a soft sigh, "Manning and Wenyue were supposed to come with us, but they had some work delays and are on the way now. They’ll probably be here in a little over an hour... Mom, what time are we having dinner?"

Low emotional intelligence: Food is ready but hasn’t been cooked, waiting for them to arrive before cooking.

High emotional intelligence: "Huh? You’re hungry? Honey, Fengfeng, stop chatting, come and cook."

"I’ll have them cook!"

Yu Huizhi immediately chose the latter. Anyway, by the time the food was ready, the two girls would almost be there. She was about to get up to notify them when Zhao Qingge stopped her, motioning that there was no rush and to wait until everyone had arrived.

"Lulu, dudu~"

Li Yilan babbled while in Zhao Qingge’s arms, trying to find a pacifier. Zhao Duoduo held her up a bit higher, gently nuzzling the baby’s delicate skin with her cheek, looking into those pure, innocent eyes full of curiosity about the world, and sighed softly.

"Mom, after talking for so long, you still haven’t answered my initial question. What should I do if he’s determined to marry Huang Tianxuan?"

"Well, if you’re asking me what to do, I’ll just say a few words, and you’ll understand. In short, the situation now is like this..."

Yu Huizhi’s facial expressions twisted intricately. After saying a lot of meaningless words, she finally gritted her teeth and decided to be righteous and cut ties: "Feelings can’t be forced, and such a principled issue is unforgivable. If Fengfeng really dares to do that, Qingge, you should divorce him!"

Divorce? Divorce to give them space?! What a rotten idea!

Zhao Qingge held Yilan, lowered her head, and remained silent.

Yu Huizhi changed her tone, earnestly saying, "But the child is innocent, and you’re not young anymore, so never have dangerous thoughts; that’s something to regret for a lifetime. So you should still give birth to the child. If you’re worried about the hassle or don’t have time to care for the child, you can give it to me. I’ll help Peifeng raise it. This way, you won’t have any burdens in the future, and you can start a new life anytime..."

Motherly love is selfless; motherly love is great.

Although Fengfeng’s emotional behavior was appalling, with no sense of moral responsibility, causing trouble for the family, Yu Huizhi was incensed, gnashing her teeth... Yet she still cared for her son and was proud of Fengfeng’s success in other areas.

If Li Peifeng’s actions were exposed, or if the other girls eventually became tired of this relationship and left him, what could she do as Li Peifeng’s mother to make amends? What could she do to help him?

Yu Huizhi pondered this question for a long time, and what she told Zhao Qingge now was what she considered to be the greatest help she could provide for her son if that day ever arrived.

But it would be best if everyone could live together harmoniously, without any more drama!

Occasionally, Yu Huizhi had little wicked thoughts, imagining how wonderful it would be to have four daughters-in-law. The greatest benefit would be that when she and Li Qiyuan reached old age, they wouldn’t have to worry about who would care for them. Each daughter-in-law could take turns taking care of them for two months, and she would be like the matriarch of a wealthy household from the old days, pampered by the four daughters-in-law. Unbearably happy!

So at this moment, although Yu Huizhi was advising Zhao Qingge to get a divorce, she was actually observing her expression, and seeing her silent, she changed the topic.

"Forget it, let’s not talk about this during the New Year. Wait a moment."

With that said, she suddenly stood up and took a large gift box from the wardrobe.

"It’s the New Year, and I didn’t know what to give you, so I had a set of gold jewelry made, with bracelets, necklaces, rings, hairpins... I designed the styles myself. See if you like them."

As the box was opened, it revealed shiny and golden pieces adorned with jade and pearls, a complete set of nine pieces of jewelry. Some bracelets had elegant designs, and some earrings were delicate and cute. Every detail showed the designer’s effort.

How could Zhao Qingge not like them? The earlier melancholy faded a bit, and she felt a sense of delight: "Thank you, Mom... This is too precious."

"It’s not about the value, as long as you like it. Quickly put them on and try them. You can lay Yilan in the bed."

Yu Huizhi helped Zhao Qingge put her long hair up and place a hairpin, and the latter looked into the mirror, continuously praising Yu Huizhi’s taste and expressing her gratitude, then tried on the other jewelry from the box.

"Mom, did you design this jade rabbit pendant too?"

"Yes, after resigning, besides taking care of the child, I didn’t have much to do, so I studied these... I drew the designs, and then found a craftsman to create them. That jade rabbit is made from colorless glass jade, very smooth and bright. Is it pretty?"
