Chapter 184 Sowing Discord Between Chu Tian and His Wife
Wen Li was clearly stunned.
To her utter surprise, Xiao's mother suddenly came over and said these words to her, adding that they would be friends from now on.
The Xiao family is one of the most prominent wealthy merchant families in the capital, and Xiao's mother holds a very high position in the social circles of noblewomen.
He actually came over in person and told her that they would be friends from now on.
Just as Wen Li was in a daze, there was a commotion outside.
Chu Miao is back.
Xiao's mother immediately turned to look at the door, her curious and expectant gaze falling on Chu Miao.
Looking at Chu Miao walking in, dressed neatly in her school uniform and carrying her schoolbag, she looked quite endearing.
"Miaomiao, you're back! Quickly say hello to Aunt Xiao." Wen Li hurriedly introduced Chu Miao to Aunt Xiao's mother.
Chu Miao nodded politely, "Hello, Aunt Xiao."
"Hey!"
Xiao's mother looked at Chu Miao with eyes full of affection.
His son hasn't been going out to play around lately; he's always with Chu Miao and Si Yelin.
Xiao Lang is lawless and unruly; even his mother can't control him.
Previously, only Si Yelin could barely keep him in check, but now there's another one, Chu Miao.
Especially since the two of them are getting so close.
Hehe...I hope she's going to be a matchmaker.
……
Xiao's mother was so enthusiastic that Chu Miao was a little overwhelmed.
She chatted for over an hour before leaving.
Chu Miao also returned to her room and sent a message to Xiao Lang.
【Thanks. 】
With Xiao's mother taking care of Wen Li, she no longer needs to worry about Wen Li being bullied by these people.
【Master, you're too kind! By the way, Second Brother has taken care of everything. That Chu Yan won't be staying at Langting Garden for long! Master, you don't need to worry about her getting in your way anymore!】
Chu Miao looked at the message, sent an emoji, then put down her phone, drew back the curtains, and opened the window.
But just then, I saw the room in the villa next door.
It is Old Mrs. Chu's room.
She lived next door to Chu Yan's family; Chu Yan was right next to her. Coincidentally, Old Mrs. Chu's room was also opposite hers.
The window in Old Mrs. Chu's room was also not closed.
Chu Miao could clearly see that Old Madam Chu was lying on the bed, her mouth and eyes crooked, unable to move.
Saliva was dribbling down the corner of his mouth.
Extremely embarrassed.
A servant stood beside her, cleaning up the filth beneath her while cursing her.
They even went so far as to grab Old Mrs. Chu directly.
They dared not hit Old Madam Chu, but only secretly pinched her in the shadows.
Grandma Chu was in a lot of pain, but she couldn't cry out. She could only whimper and drool even more.
Chu Miao leaned against the window casually, watching this scene with a blank expression.
Whether it was a telepathic connection or not, Old Mrs. Chu also turned her eyes to look over.
"Woooooooo..."
She also saw Chu Miao.
He kept whimpering and calling out to her.
Chu Miao tilted her head and gave her a smile.
"Waaah!" Old Mrs. Chu cried out even louder.
"What are you yelling about!" The maid, already annoyed by her behavior, kicked her hard when she heard her yelling. "Be quiet and eat your food!"
It was supposed to be rice, but it was actually spoiled and extremely hard.
The maid wouldn't give her water and instead fed her hard-to-digest foods, making it difficult for her to defecate.
"Woooo..."
Grandma Chu didn't want to eat, but she had no choice. The servant grabbed her chin and roughly poured the food down her throat.
Grandma Chu was in pain, feeling humiliated and heartbroken, and tears streamed down her face.
She regrets it now.
I really regret it.
Her beloved granddaughter Chu Yan, whom she had cherished for so many years, was a demon. Now that Chu Yan was sick, she was tormenting her like this.
She was wrong. She shouldn't have been biased and should have only favored the second son's family. She was wrong!
If she hadn't been so biased, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation, and she could have had a divine physician granddaughter, Chu Miao, whom everyone envied.
But it's too late for her to admit her mistake now.
Chu Miao tilted her head and watched as Old Madam Chu was humiliated, then slowly drew the curtains closed.
……
Chu Tian helped Chu Yan's family move.
He was going home that evening.
Liu Yufang stopped him, saying, "Brother, you've been helping us all day, you must be tired. Why don't you stay for dinner?"
"No need, my wife is still waiting for me at home," Chu Tian shook his head and refused.
He came to help with the move out of respect for Old Madam Chu and Chu Di. Although Chu Di was in jail, he was still his brother, and they were an orphan and a widow, so he had to help them.
"Why don't you stay for dinner?" Liu Yufang was somewhat jealous that Chu Tian cared so much about Wen Li.
"You helped us move, so you should stay for a meal before you leave."
Chu Yan quickly grabbed Chu Tian to stop him from leaving. Chu Tian looked troubled. Chu Yan said, "Uncle, is it because Aunt won't let you stay for dinner? We're living next door now, does Aunt particularly dislike us?"
Chu Tian is the type of person who responds better to gentle persuasion than force.
Chu Yan and Liu Yufang softened their stance, leaving him unsure how to refuse.
“It’s normal that your sister-in-law doesn’t like us. We made a lot of mistakes before.” Liu Yufang sighed. “You must resent us. Forget it, you should go home. You have your own home. You really shouldn’t help us here.”
Liu Yufang understood Chu Tian's personality, and she thought that after saying all that, Chu Tian would definitely stay, but she was clearly disappointed.
Chu Tian frowned, feeling somewhat uncomfortable when he heard them speaking ill of Wen Li.
“Lili isn’t that kind of person, so don’t overthink it. Now that you’re living next door, I’ll help you if you need anything in the future. My wife has prepared a meal at home, so I have to go back and eat. I’ll be going now.”
After saying that, Chu Tian walked away.
This scene infuriated Liu Yufang.
Why is Chu Tian so family-oriented and so fond of Wen Li? Why does Wen Li have such a good husband, while her husband is in jail?
They cannot let Chu Tian go back today!
Liu Yufang gave Chu Yan a wink, and Chu Yan's eyes darted around before he quickly said, "Uncle, why don't you go see Grandma again? She hasn't seen you in so long and misses you terribly. You've come all this way, you should talk to her more."
Chu Tian indeed stopped in his tracks.
Director Zhang came to see Chu Miao and witnessed this scene.
He didn't hold back in his sarcastic remarks.
"People these days are really shameless. They stop people from going home because they can't stand seeing their families happy and harmonious. They're deliberately trying to break them up!"
"Chu Tian, you'd better think things through, or you'll be ruined by some people! They're moving in next door and trying to curry favor with you, who knows what kind of trouble they're going to cause!"
He spoke so quickly that he couldn't help but cough.
But looking at Liu Yufang and the others, their eyes and noses didn't look like eyes or noses, and it was annoying to look at them.
