Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 21: Aren’t You Afraid I Might Be a Bad Person?

Mrs. Yao sighed softly and continued, "Even though we lost Qianqian, she gave the Lyu Family three lovely children. No matter what happens, we are still Lyu Juncheng’s in-laws, and during the holidays, we deserve the respect and honor due to us."

If Huihui marries soone else, then we’d have two sons-in-law, and during the holidays, we’d receive two shares of respect. If she marries Lyu Juncheng, then both our daughters are tied to the sa man, making him quite happy."

Father Yao also knew there was truth in his wife’s words, "Aren’t I just worried about those three kids?"

Mrs. Yao turned over, with her back to him, "Enough, it’s clear Lyu Juncheng isn’t interested in our Huihui. Otherwise, why would he register with that young lady from his hotown? It’s better to save yourself the trouble."

What she didn’t say was how well Lyu Juncheng treated their Yao Qian, sothing she, as a mother-in-law, knew very well. Even if he remarried, with those three children tying them together, he wouldn’t treat their family poorly; otherwise, she wouldn’t take it lightly.

As much as she loved those three grandchildren, she couldn’t risk sacrificing her youngest daughter. She had no faith in keeping it all in the family; as long as everything was handled well, it was fine. But if anything went wrong, the bit of affection they had would be gone too. She wasn’t a fool.

The two old folks each pondered their own thoughts and fell asleep.

At this mont, Yu Xinyan appeared once more at the chanical Factory’s employee hospital.

The situation was like this: after finally entering the factory gate, as she dashed towards the guesthouse, she almost ran into soone in the dark.

Once she got a good look at the person in front of her, she realized it was a little child she had t once before at the hospital, though perhaps the child didn’t even rember her.

As Yu Xinyan steadied the child, she noticed the child was trembling and covered in sweat, clearly from running too fast. She couldn’t help but ask, "Kid, what’s happened to you?"

The little boy, feeling guilty for almost bumping into soone, wanted to answer quickly and leave. In his haste, his words were jumbled, "No one at ho, brother’s sick, looking for uncle, having a bad fever, saving brother."

Fortunately, Yu Xinyan understood, "Where are your family mbers?"

The little boy was beside himself with urgency, "No one at ho, uncle’s at the hospital."

She understood now, that the man with the leg injury was the boy’s uncle. If no other adults were ho, and considering his leg injury, he probably couldn’t do much even if he ca back.

Looking at the anxious child before her, she said, "Why not ask a neighbor for help? Your uncle’s leg is injured and he’s having trouble walking himself; how can he carry your brother?"

Seeing the boy hesitate at her question made her feel a little bad, "Where is your ho? I’ll help you take him to the hospital."

After she said this, she regretted it. She wasn’t related to the child and didn’t know him. He probably wouldn’t trust her.

Unexpectedly, the boy nodded, "Thank you, sister."

Saying that, he pulled her towards the direction they ca from, "This way."

Yu Xinyan couldn’t help but ask, "Aren’t you afraid I’m a bad person?"

The boy didn’t even turn his head, maybe from walking too fast, his words carried a hint of gasping, "I’ve seen you at the hospital before, sister."

Ah, so it turned out this little kid was quite sharp.

Not having ti to ask anything else, she followed the boy and slightly jogged to a courtyard. Before she could make out the situation inside, she was pulled into the house.

As soon as Yu Xinyan entered, she saw a younger child lying on the heated brick bed.

Getting closer for a look, she saw the child with a face flushed from fever, seemingly muttering sothing. When she reached out to touch him, he felt frighteningly hot.
