Chapter 899 Regret
Mrs. Dong pushed Dong Yuanyuan away weakly and said to her, "I have a headache and I don't feel well."
Dong Yuanyuan stood up and pressed, "Grandma, are you going to help me or not?"
Mrs. Dong turned around to look at her granddaughter standing there.
Her granddaughter is actually quite clever.
She's really trying to take all the blame upon herself, making her grandmother take the fall while she remains completely unscathed.
So what should she do now?
The old lady felt that neither of her two granddaughters was easy to deal with.
The younger one is too fragile; he'll start threatening to kill himself after just a few words. Now that he's home, we're afraid to even breathe too loudly.
The older one has a terrible temper and is so stubborn. At her age, she doesn't want to find a partner or work. Even if the Dong family can afford to support her, it's still not the right way to go.
Now that this has happened, if people find out that she is partly responsible, it will be really difficult for her to find a partner in the future.
Those who are of equal social standing would definitely not be interested in her.
Those whose circumstances are not as good as ours, even we ourselves would feel embarrassed.
At that moment, the old lady truly felt some regret.
I've been too lenient with her all these years, so she's reaping what she sowed; she deserves it.
The old woman standing at the door had a bitter smile on her face, but her heart was growing colder and colder.
She said, "Who told me to be your grandma? Even though you don't even have a boyfriend, even though you don't have a job and don't go to school, you're good for nothing. Compared to your peers, what do you have that you can compare to them?"
“Look at Lu Qiaoge across the street. He graduated from Peking University and is now a key cadre being cultivated by the State Administration of Foreign Trade. In the past few years, he has established several factories, and each of them can earn foreign exchange.”
Her family was harmonious, and her siblings loved each other. After marrying Qin Hengzhi, she never had any conflicts with the Qin family.
Even Qin Hengzhi's second aunt, a woman known for her meddling, never spoke ill of Lu Qiaoge behind her back. On the contrary, whenever Lu Qiaoge was mentioned, her face would light up with a smile, as if she were her own daughter.
"You know Qin Ruixue from the Qin family. You used to laugh at her, but look at her now? She's married, has a family, and even has a daughter. When Qin Ruixue and her mother-in-law were having a conflict, and even Qin Ruixue's parents didn't know what to do, Lu Qiaoge went to her house."
No one knows the specifics, but one can guess that it was resolved very well.
Look how comfortable Qin Ruixue is living in her husband's family now. She has turned over a new leaf, and you really can't find anything wrong with her, whether it's at work or at home.
But she told others that Lu Qiaoge had helped her, and that she was lucky to have Lu Qiaoge as her sister-in-law.
"Tell me, among all the families in our compound, which one can manage to have such a good relationship with their mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and even other relationships as Lu Qiaoge?"
She doesn't fawn or flatter; she's open, honest, and straightforward. Who would dare underestimate her?
"In the end, she's just really capable. As her grandmother, I would feel guilty if I compared you to her."
"Then compare yourself to Chief of Staff Xu's daughter. Didn't you always play together, compete, fight, and compare with each other when you were little?"
"Look at that young woman now, she's doing very well at work, she has a college diploma, and her husband is from our compound, we know him well. The young couple has never caused their parents or family any worry."
Dong Yuanyuan, your mother's ideas are sometimes wrong, but I can't say that her parenting is bad. However, it seems that some of her actions have really harmed you. Now you're already this age, almost 30, and in a few years, if you want to find a partner, you'll only be able to find divorced women with children. Why do you put yourself through that?
Now that things have come to this, I, as the grandmother, bear a great responsibility, but your father bears an even greater responsibility.
I don't know what to say, but I regret it now. How can I bear to make things worse for you?
If you're burdened with the reputation of driving your own sister to her death, your life is truly over.
"So, Yuanyuan, Grandma promised you that she would push all the blame onto me, that it's all your fault as Grandma, and that it has nothing to do with you."
Since you don't want to go to your mother's place these next few days, just stay home quietly and don't go out and talk nonsense or cause trouble.
If you can't treat your sister well when you go to the hospital, then don't upset her.
As Grandma Dong spoke of this, tears silently streamed down her face.
She never imagined things would develop this way. If she had known, she certainly wouldn't have spoiled her granddaughter.
A girl like Lu Qiaoge, no matter how much you indulge her, knows where her path lies and how to walk it.
People like Yuanyuan should be strictly disciplined and not left to their own devices.
But she and her son cannot escape the bitter consequences of this.
The thought of the future filled her with darkness.
The old lady turned around and slammed the bedroom door shut.
Dong Yuanyuan was stunned, because her grandmother had never said anything so harsh or so much to her before.
For a moment, her mind was buzzing. When she came to her senses, she stomped her feet and burst into tears.
He muttered incoherent curses, then picked up the teapot from the coffee table and slammed it onto the floor with a bang.
He muttered under his breath, "It's all my fault! If you hadn't agreed to my parents' divorce, would I be without my own mother by my side? My older brother, my parents, and I, isn't our family of four good enough?"
When we got divorced, you agreed so readily! You just didn't like my mom. You thought she was too strong-willed and couldn't please you. You thought she couldn't do housework and couldn't take care of you.
So when that woman surnamed Lian came in, although you were disgusted by her, you didn't disagree with her at all!
"Don't you just want a daughter-in-law who serves you?"
Grandma Dong was so angry that she was trembling all over. She put her hand on her heart and felt that she might die at any moment.
Just then, the door opened, and Dong Ze, looking exhausted, entered the room.
He heard half of the cursing, then saw the mess on the floor. His voice was icy as he asked, "What happened? Where's your grandmother?"
Dong Yuanyuan continued to cry loudly, completely ignoring Lao Dong.
Dong Ze's expression changed. He pushed open the door to his mother's bedroom and found her pale and trembling, her hand pressed against her chest. Startled, he rushed forward. Just as he was about to say something, the old lady said, "Don't be nervous. Pour me some hot water, and I'll feel better."
