The weather in Beijing in July is so hot that it feels like a fire.
In a courtyard in Xicheng District where more than ten households live, dozens of people crowded in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air, chatting and gossiping.
Yu Jinshu was sitting in the room. The wind blowing in through the window carried a strong human scent. Along with the noisy voices, it was so hot that she almost suffered from heat stroke.
If this happened in a previous life, it would be a joke if the female CEO of a listed company, which started out as an air conditioner manufacturer, suffered from heat stroke due to the scorching heat.
Mr. Yu felt that he was quite unlucky, going from 24 to 1994.
The company, money, and excellent and lovely daughter are all gone.
Yu Yaomei in 1994 was even worse than Mr. Yu.
Just after receiving the certificate, the whereabouts of the soldier husband who was fighting floods and rescue operations were unknown, and the mother-in-law was in a car accident and became a vegetative state.
A mountain of pressure fell on the 20-year-old girl. Yu Yaomei couldn't think about it anymore and jumped into the river.
Then, Mr. Yu, the decisive mall iron lady, walked through.
"Company Commander Lin got the certificate from her in the morning, and was transferred to fight the flood in the afternoon. Yaomei is still a big girl, right? When Captain Lin's pension comes, she will definitely use the money to remarry!"
"She remarried, what will her mother-in-law do?"
"Her mother-in-law was very fierce before the car accident, but now she is a vegetative state. Yaomei took the money and randomly found a nursing home to put her in. No one cares whether she lives or dies."
The gossipy women in the yard were sitting at the windows of Lin's house chewing their tongues, very arrogantly.
Everyone knew that Yu Yaomei was timid and afraid of getting into trouble. When she heard this, she would only secretly wipe her tears and not dare to stand up and refute.
No one knew that the person sitting in the room was Mr. Yu.
"It's inappropriate to talk about my family's gossip without me, right? If you have any questions about me, just ask me face to face. I'll tell you everything I know."
The noisy crowd suddenly became quiet.
Mr. Yu held the window frame with one hand and looked down at the frightened people outside.
The long-tongued woman who was caught laughed awkwardly and did not dare to continue, so she carried the small horse and changed places.
These people only dare to bully honest people like the original owner. When they meet an upright person like Mr. Yu who asks questions face to face, they become a coward.
Thanks to these talkative women, Mr. Yu was able to find out the situation of the original owner.
The original owner didn't leave any memory to her. She only pieced together her life story by listening to outsiders talking about the family.
The door opened.
Middle-aged women complain when they enter the house.
"The pension has not been paid yet? The efficiency of the army is too poor. Lin Yixuan has disappeared for five days. He must be dead. What are you looking for? Hurry up and pay."
Mr. Yu guessed that this woman should be from the original owner's natal family, so he kept silent and waited for the other party to reveal more information.
"At the beginning, I thought that Lin Yixuan had a bright future as a company commander at a young age. Your grandfather was kind to his family and used this to blackmail him into marrying you. If your sister hadn't already had a partner, would this good thing have happened to you? Who knew Lin Yixuan's short life - —Forget it, I won’t talk to you anymore and let’s get down to business.”
Zhang Zhaodi glanced at her daughter with disgust, but felt that something was wrong with the daughter in front of her. Her eyes looked different, very sharp.
"It is said outside that your mother-in-law has saved a lot of money. While she is in a coma, you can find it and give it to me. When the pension comes, you can bring that money back to me. I heard that there is an old immortal who is alive. The secret recipe for a son is a bit expensive. I am in a hurry to have a son and I need money..."
Zhang Zhaodi counted the motives for asking for money in detail.
"Having... a son?!" Mr. Yu raised his eyebrows to look at the wrinkles on the other person's face. He is really a brave man to have a baby at this age.
"Nonsense! You and your sister are just two losers. If you don't have a son, why should you be bullied to death?"
There was a coughing sound from next door. Mr. Yu left Zhang Zhaodi and went to take a look.
In the master bedroom, Sun Ying, the mother-in-law of the original owner, was lying on it, coughing violently with her eyes closed. Zhang Zhaodi said with disdain:
"She is no longer in a vegetative state. Why is she still coughing?"
"Long-term bed rest may cause accumulation pneumonia, or it may be a simple dry cough." Mr. Yu patted Sun Ying on the back, and Sun Ying stopped coughing.
Seeing that Sun Ying's breathing was stable and she had no other symptoms, Mr. Yu guessed that she might be thirsty. He picked up the water bowl on the bedside and dipped a cotton swab in the water to feed her.
"She's unconscious. What's the use of being so attentive to her? Leave her alone and give me the money first." Zhang Zhaodi urged the money again.
"I can't give you the money."
"Yu Yaomei, what nonsense are you talking about? Sun Ying looked down on you so much when he was sober, and you have forgotten? Why are you protecting her?" Zhang Zhaodi almost thought she heard wrong.
"I really forgot. I plan to change my name. I won't call you Yaomei anymore." Mr. Yu admitted generously.
She didn't like the original owner's name.
Yaomei sounds like "Yaomei", which, in Mr. Yu's opinion, is a name full of malice.
I still like my name, Yu Jinshu.
When Zhang Zhaodi heard that she wanted to change her name, she angrily pointed her finger at her nose and scolded her.
"Yu Yaomei, you little bastard, did you change your name to curse me so that I can't have a son? To destroy the roots of our old Yu family?"
Zhang Zhaodi's human organs and eight generations of ancestors came out.
No matter how unpleasant her scolding was, Jinshu would not continue to criticize her - what did it have to do with her and Yu Jinshu to scold Yu Yaomei?
The other party paused for a few seconds after being tired of scolding, and Jin Shu looked at her encouragingly and motioned for her to continue, which seemed to be a sign of caring for the disadvantaged.
Zhang Zhaodi scolded her until her mouth went dry, and she felt tired when meeting someone like Mr. Yu who had a strong heart and was calm and unyielding.
"What's wrong with you? Sun Ying doesn't treat you well. She is just an evil mother-in-law. You even gave up your own mother for this evil mother-in-law?"
"I'm not doing it for her, I'm doing it for her son's sake."
"For Lin Yixuan? You only met him twice, and he left after you received the certificate. How can you have any feelings for him if you are not familiar with him?"
"I'm not familiar with him, but I am familiar with the military uniform he wears."
Although she hasn't figured out the relationship between the characters yet, she still has the most basic three views.
Lin Yixuan was a soldier and disappeared while fighting the flood. If he really died, then Sun Ying would be a martyr of the army.
"Soldiers protect their homes and country. No one with a little bit of conscience will bully the family members of military martyrs. They don't have the most basic values and are not even human beings."
Mr. Yu respected soldiers the most in his previous life, and her life was saved by soldiers.
In the face of the righteousness of the family and the country, the relationship between a man and a woman, and the conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not worth mentioning.
Zhang Zhaodi couldn't believe that the sharp-tongued person in front of her was her cowardly and incompetent little daughter, who was about to hit her if she raised her hand.
Jin Shu grabbed her wrist and said, "It's not dignified to do anything."
"Yu Yaomei! Take out the money. If you don't take the money, never go back to your parents' home, and don't call me mom!"
"This is what you said, don't regret it, auntie."
If you’re not allowed to call me mom, then don’t call her.
Mr. Yu put one hand in his pocket and thought to himself, is there such a good thing?
Zhang Zhaodi:......?!!!
"Perhaps you don't like the title of aunt, so why don't you call me aunt? Aunt, the door is over there. Please leave slowly without seeing me off." Jin Shu gestured to the door politely.
As long as she is here, no one can take advantage of military families.
Sun Ying was lying on the bed, her ears twitching, and a tear fell silently from the corner of her eye.
