Fortunately

Chapter 36 Relief
It is said that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies, but this is not appropriate at all in the Zeng family.

When Yan Youwei married into the Zeng family, Zeng Zimu's father didn't say anything from the beginning to the end.Neither opposed nor supported.Maybe deep in his heart, he still hopes that his son will marry a famous lady, so that he can add another weight to Zhimei's future.

Zeng Zimu is completely indifferent. After the two signed an agreement not to have children for five years after marriage, he gave her a title.Life after marriage is not that sad, and occasionally a little romantic.But Yan Youwei always felt that there was something between them, and neither of them could open their hearts to each other.

Only Zeng Zimu's mother was happy with the marriage from beginning to end.She grew up watching Yan Youwei, not like her biological mother, but definitely not just a mother-in-law.

When Yan Youwei decided to divorce, the only one who felt sorry was this mother-in-law.In this wrong marriage, only the mother-in-law stood on her side completely and unconditionally.

They never argued or had conflicts, and she was quite generous as a mother-in-law when it came to money.Yan Youwei now looks through the high-grade jewelry in the dressing box, most of them are gifts from her mother-in-law instead of her husband.Apart from giving her a three-carat diamond ring when they got married, Zeng Zimu only gave her an exquisite gift every year on her birthday.But the mother-in-law doesn't care whether it's normal or holidays, she will give her something when she thinks of it.

During the divorce, Yan Youwei didn't want anything, and she had no intention of getting involved in the Zeng family's huge property, and Zeng Zimu never said he would give it to her.But Zeng Zimu insisted on her accepting the box of priceless jewelry, and persuaded her: "This is my mother's heart."

Even he could tell that her mother-in-law really liked her very much.

Because of this, Yan Youwei didn't dare to see her old man after the divorce.She was afraid of seeing the disappointed look in the other party's eyes, afraid that she would persuade herself and Zeng Zimu to remarry over and over again.If she wanted to completely get out of the big cage of the Zeng family, she had to draw a clear line with everyone in their family, especially her mother-in-law.

So for three years, they never saw each other.It wasn't until today that Yan Youwei was sitting face to face in the small cafe in the hospital that Yan Youwei recalled every little thing about getting along with her mother-in-law in the past.

It was full of happy things, much happier than the experience with Zeng Zimu.

She put her hands on the table, held a cup of hot coffee in her hand, and opened her mouth in embarrassment: "Auntie."

"What's your name, aunt? Mom."

Yan You smiled even more awkwardly.

Zeng Mu didn't care at all, and waved her hand casually: "Don't worry about Zimu's piece of wood. No matter what you do, you will still call me Mom from now on. When you were not together when you were young, didn't you always call me Mom? Well."

This is true.When I was young, Zeng Yan and his family had a good relationship. When Yan Youwei was still wearing a red scarf, Zeng's mother joked that she wanted her son to marry her as his wife.Since then she has been joking about calling herself mother.Yan Youwei was young and ignorant, so he yelled when adults coaxed him together.Later, when she grew up, she knew that this mother meant mother-in-law, so she was reluctant to call her directly, and changed to "Mama Zeng".

Although there is only one more surname, the meaning has changed a lot.

From then on, Yan Youwei understood what she wanted.No matter how well she played with Zeng Zimu, she was unwilling to marry into the Zeng family.Zeng Zimu has everything that a perfect man in this world possesses.Tall figure, three-dimensional facial features, gentle temperament, extraordinary talent and huge family business.In the eyes of other women, all these have fatal attractive advantages, but to Yan Youwei, they are like a scourge.

She was really scared by her parents' marriage.A man like her father is very different from Zeng Zimu, but even this can't stop him from hooking up women everywhere like a big radish.Since she was a child, she was terrified of seeing her mother standing alone in the empty boudoir and crying silently, so she really didn't want her marriage to become like this one day.

Zeng Zimu is not bad, but too good.So good she couldn't take it anymore.

Just like the former mother-in-law sitting across from her, she was also too good to resist.How much she wished that Zeng Zimu's mother would be like Ke Jianzhong's mother, Ma Huilan, who gritted her teeth whenever she saw her, wishing she could eat her.If the other party is a shrew, she can use this as an excuse to turn her face and leave.But like now, Zeng Mu looked at him with kindness and joy, which put more burden on Yan Youwei's heart.

Sometimes being overly cared about is really a very contradictory thing.

Zeng Mu looked at Yan Youwei's face carefully with her eyes, and she looked at Yan Youwei's face for a full 5 minutes before she spoke again, "Youwei, how are you doing?"

"pretty good."

"I heard you remarried."

"Ah."

Zeng Mu suddenly stopped asking.In fact, she knew about Yan Youwei's situation.Half a month after divorcing his son, he married his first love again.As a result, the man didn't live long. After three months of marriage, he went hiking with his friends, but he fell into the valley and died.

When she heard the news, she really wanted to find Yan Youwei, but she held back thinking about her son.Although she likes Yan Youwei, it's better to let them handle the young people's affairs by themselves.Parents caught in the middle can only go wrong.She has already missed it once, and she doesn't want to miss it a second time.

So she changed the subject a little bluntly: "How are your parents recently?"

"pretty good."

"Your mother had insomnia when she was young, is it better now?"

"Occasionally she still can't sleep, she has to take medicine. But we try not to let her take medicine."

"Does your father still suffer from high blood pressure?"

"No more, I have been taking medicine."

Mother Zeng couldn't help laughing: "I remember that he didn't like to take medicine in the past, but now he has to take medicine every day, and he probably doesn't like it."

Yan Youwei gradually calmed down while listening to the other party talking about the past.The two of them are witnesses to each other's lives, and their lives have long been integrated into each other's lives.So talking about the past is also a good way to vote.

It's just that Yan Youwei was a little surprised. She didn't expect that after so many years, Zeng Mu had already become a famous lady in the social circle, but she still remembered this trivial matter of their family.

The two of them just talked slowly about the past.Yan Youwei actually wanted to leave, but out of politeness, he could only laugh along with him.She didn't know how long she had been talking, but she suddenly noticed that Zeng Mu's expression on the opposite side changed slightly, so when she turned her head, she saw Zeng Zimu walking towards them gracefully.

"Why are you here, don't you want to rest for a while?" Zeng Mu smiled at her son and asked with concern.

"I've had enough sleep. I'll ask Jin Yang to go through the discharge procedures and come over to have a look."

"Discharged? Discharged after only staying for a few hours?"

"It's ready."

"That's great? Jin Yang said that you fell asleep for several hours."

Zeng Zimu touched his nose mischievously: "I fell asleep because I was drunk, not because I was injured. There is no need to be hospitalized for a skin scratch on my shoulder."

Zeng Mu no longer objected, but asked again: "Then where are you going now, are you going home?"

Zeng Zimu put a hand on Yan Youwei's shoulder naturally: "You go back first, I will go to eat with Youwei."

These words hit Zeng Mu's heart.She originally wanted to hold Yan Youwei to chat again, but when she heard what her son said, she stood up immediately, as if she was going to leave: "Okay, then eat slowly, I just have something else to do, so I'm leaving first Ah. Youwei, you help watch Dian Zimu, he has injuries so he should not eat spicy food."

Yan You nodded with a smile, and accepted all the demands of "Empress Zeng".No matter how much Zeng Mu likes her, her son is still the top priority.

The two stood there watching the "Queen Dowager" leave, and Yan Youwei said slowly, "Can you take your hand off me?"

"I'm a little tired, borrow my strength."

"If you're tired, go back to the ward and lie down."

"It's not that Jin Yang is going through the discharge procedures, and he can't go back to the ward."

Yan Youwei looked up at him in fright.Zeng Zimu gave her a look of "you heard me right", and then put his hand on her: "Let's go."

"where to?"

"go to eat."

"Are you really going to eat?"

"Of course it's true." Zeng Zimu raised his hand and looked at his watch. "It's almost six o'clock. Why don't you eat? You should know my mother. Although she is gone, her eyes are still there. If we don't If we separate after having a meal together, either I will be read to death by her, or you will be read to death by her."

This is true.On the one hand, Yan Youwei was moved by the enthusiasm of her ex-mother-in-law, but on the other hand, she was really afraid of Zeng Zimu, the mother.If Zeng Zimu hadn't come to save the place just now, I would definitely not be able to escape today, and I probably would have to accompany her after dinner before going home.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but thank Zeng Zimu with gratitude: "Thank you today. To be honest, I'm really afraid of your mother."

"You're welcome. Don't think that I'm here to help you out. Even without my mother, I would still have dinner with you. Thank you for what you did this morning. After all, you didn't have the heart to throw me at the door."

Yan You smiled a little fake, is she that kind of person?Even if she is, so what!
Seeing her expression, Zeng Zimu smiled happily, and the two walked to the hospital gate together to hail a taxi.

Zeng Zimu injured his shoulder, which is not good for driving. Sun Jinyang called to see them off, but Zeng Zimu said no, and his tone revealed a threat of "flash the light bulb farther away".Sun Jinyang was so angry that he cursed secretly, and hung up the phone angrily.

There was a special taxi waiting area at the entrance of the hospital, and the two picked the front one and got on the taxi.After Zeng Zimu reported the address to the driver, he closed his eyes and recuperated.But just 2 minutes after I closed my eyes, I opened them again, and said out of nowhere: "Actually, I'm also quite afraid of my mother."

Yan Youwei couldn't help laughing, but before she laughed for a long time, she heard Zeng Zimu say: "I didn't bring my wallet, you will pay the taxi fare later."
