Chapter 191 Insufficient people

She had never thought about this issue. Wasn't the reason she had asked her daughter-in-law to have children sooner so that her daughter-in-law could help take care of her grandchildren while she was still healthy?

To be honest, her two granddaughters are not actually related to Yiyao and Jianlin by blood. Her son is from her previous marriage, and Yiyao and Jianlin have been doing their best to help her take care of her two granddaughters. Instead of being grateful to them, she keeps complaining that they haven't done enough for her.

Perhaps this is a true reflection of the saying "a snake trying to swallow an elephant"! If she hadn't schemed against others like this, she might have been the happiest woman in the world! It is said that being a stepmother is difficult. For a period of time after a stepmother enters the family, her husband's former children will try every means to make things difficult for her.

But my two daughters didn't do that! Perhaps out of consideration for Yiyao and Jianlin, and also hoping that Yiyao, who is already in her late seventies or early eighties, would treat her stepmother exceptionally well. Every time my eldest daughter goes back to Jianlin's house, she brings a lot of things with her.

Things like fruit and nutritional supplements—ever since her son had a daughter, her eldest daughter always brings her a brand-new outfit for her granddaughter whenever she visits Jianlin's house. Or she buys her a very expensive toy! Now, her eldest daughter also has a four- or five-year-old daughter, but her son has never bought a single piece of clothing for my niece.

Love is a two-way street! If only one person is constantly and silently giving, while the other only enjoys the kindness shown to them without reciprocating enthusiastically, then the one who is always giving will eventually feel disheartened and choose to turn away.

Although the son she brought from her ex-husband's family had long since changed his surname to Jianlin's, Jianlin treated the boy as his own son. He worked hard to earn money to build him a house and then found him a wife.

The eldest daughter even complained to Jianlin about this! It was because Jianlin hadn't contributed financially when she and her fiancé needed to buy a house for their wedding. Also, although both weddings were held in Xia Xu, the eldest daughter's wedding wasn't as grand as the groom's.

Furthermore, the eldest daughter did most of the setup work herself. She never complained to Jianlin about any of this. She even bought him new clothes for holidays!

Although Jianlin had always been completely devoted to him, he wasn't as filial as his eldest daughter! A particularly memorable example was Jianlin's 60th birthday celebration. It was his eldest daughter and son-in-law who paid for and organized the event! The young man and his wife, however, didn't attend because his adoptive father-in-law was attending a funeral.

The eldest daughter and son-in-law were furious about this! They felt that their sincerity had been wasted! Not only that, when the eldest son-in-law drove his car with Yiyao and Rousha to the place that Guangming and the others owned...

Not long after Yiyao and Rousha got out of the car, Jianlin's current wife started cursing! She said that Jianlin was a bad person to the core! She said that he was so concerned about saving face and insisted on going to this 60th birthday celebration!

He didn't even go to his daughter-in-law's house to help her after her father-in-law passed away! He doesn't even know basic etiquette! When he saw Yi Yao standing to the side, he deliberately cursed at her, saying that Jianlin was a real piece of work.

At that moment, Rosa was standing next to Yiyao when she heard Yiyao whisper, "You're the worst person." For some reason, she immediately spotted Rosa standing next to Yiyao and shut up.

It wasn't that she was afraid of Rosa, but rather that she wanted to use Rosa's phone to call my eldest daughter. So she followed Rosa around, trying to get her to make a call to her eldest daughter.

Rosa naturally knew what she wanted to do! And naturally she wouldn't call her eldest daughter, but she couldn't stop Jianlin's current wife from following her around and asking her the same question.

Furthermore, Rosa was genuinely afraid of her aunt! So, in no time, the little girl opened a WeChat chat window with her eldest daughter and even started a video chat. The eldest daughter, who was putting her baby to sleep, thought it was Rosa calling to see her.

So he whispered, "The baby is sleeping right now, could you call me later?" Just as the eldest daughter was about to hang up the video call, Jianlin's second wife launched into a long, rambling speech.

Her words were all about how bad Jianlin was! How could any daughter tolerate someone speaking ill of her father in front of her?

The eldest daughter was furious! She told her several times that she wouldn't be going upstairs for dinner that night!

For some reason, Jianlin's wife kept saying that she had already prepared pork trotters and ribs, and that her eldest daughter must come up for dinner tonight! The eldest daughter knew that if she brought her baby up, her stepmother would definitely have a big fight with her, so she immediately hung up the video call with Rousha.

Not long after, she sent a message to her eldest son-in-law, asking him to bring Yiyao and Rousha back to Jiang Le.

I really don't understand why some people would rather not have a good life than keep arguing like this endlessly.

Hi! Perhaps this is the most realistic portrayal of remarried families! If she hadn't been so heartless to Jianmei back then, Jianmei might still be alive today. I once mentioned to Rousha that if Jianmei were still alive, she would have another daughter by her side to take care of her whenever she got sick.

If your mother were still alive, you would probably have already sold your house in Jiang Le! If that's the case, your grandmother could stay at your house when she comes to Jiang Le.

As I said this, a crystal tear quietly rolled down Rosa's cheek. To hide her silent weeping from me, Rosa raised her hand and let her tears fall.

Because she knew we were deeply saddened by Jianmei's passing! I remember that seven months after Jianmei's death, our second daughter came to Jiang Le to celebrate the May Day holiday. One evening, the whole family went to a karaoke bar. At first, everyone was happily singing.

However, the eldest daughter and her second sister Bingying sat there crying, both feeling very down. The eldest daughter cried as she told her second aunt that she often dreamed of Jianmei.

We were crossing the street together, but my aunt was standing on the opposite side of me! Somehow, as we walked, my aunt disappeared!
