Chapter 137 Visiting father-in-law and mother-in-law
The fourth aunt argued with my mother for a while, then ran to discuss it with the fourth uncle.
The fourth uncle simply closed the shop and cooked a table of dishes to entertain Ye Fan's family.
During lunch, the fourth uncle opened a bottle of wine with Ye Zhonghua.
My father was so drunk that he became drunk after a while. My mother was so angry that she had no choice but to go to her fourth aunt's house to rest.
"Ye Fan, your dad will probably have to sleep for a while before he wakes up. It's two-thirty now. You and Xiaojun first visit your in-laws."
Mom pulled Ye Fan aside and whispered: "I have put all the things for my in-laws in Xiaojun's trunk. It's not convenient for Nono to go with you. I'll watch from here. You two can just take Yiyi."
"Um."
Ye Fan looked at his watch, "Then I'll come back early. I still have to drive for an hour to Dayun Township in Liukouli!"
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry. If it doesn't work out, let's stay here for one night and then go back to our hometown tomorrow." My mother quickly waved her hand and warned cautiously: "Suppress your temper and don't make trouble with your in-laws, do you understand?
"
"Hey, I'm not one of those young people!"
Ye Fan smiled, said hello to Dong Yuejun, picked up Yiyi and left his fourth aunt's house.
Nuonuo eagerly sent them out. Although he also wanted to follow, his mother had an explanation, so he could only endure his reluctance and stay honestly.
The fourth uncle was a very enthusiastic man. Seeing that Nono was uncomfortable, he offered to take him to a nearby children's park to play.
My mother looked at Ye Zhonghua snoring in the room with disgust, and took her fourth aunt to go shopping in the county town.
Just as Ye Fan left, they went out, leaving only his father sleeping soundly at home.
There is a very famous place in Liukou County called Wan Burial Pit.
As the name suggests, tens of thousands of innocent lives lost in the wars of the last century are treated as nothing here.
In fact, there are many similar tragic war scenes throughout the counties around Nanjiang City.
Dong Yuejun's home lives in a community not far from the Wanjiankeng War Memorial Hall. When Ye Fan passed by here, he went in and burned a stick of incense.
This is a habit that exists in that world.
When Ye Fan stepped into the memorial hall, the sorrow and indignation in his heart were ready to move.
He felt deeply for the unforgivable massacre committed by the island country in China and has never forgotten it.
"Ye Fan, what's wrong with you?" Dong Yuejun saw that Ye Fan was not in a good mood, so she gently held his hand and leaned on his shoulder.
Ye Fan remained silent, offered the incense devoutly, and left quickly.
The two drove to a community a few hundred meters away, packed the things in the trunk, and set foot at Dong Yuejun's parents' house.
Ye Fan's hands were full of gifts, and Dong Yuejun hugged Yiyi and came to a door on the third floor.
Her expression was not as excited as Ye Fan imagined, but instead there was a hint of sadness between her eyebrows.
This time it was Ye Fan's turn to be curious, "Xiaojun, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, let's go in." Dong Yuejun took a deep breath and knocked on the door: "I sent them a message before coming back, but they didn't reply."
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Dong Yuejun knocked for three minutes before the door slowly opened.
Standing in the door was an expressionless little old man with a Mediterranean hairstyle, triangular eyes, and rosacea. He was not tall, but he kept his chin high, his eyes wandering around Ye Fan, looking sour and mean.
In the living room behind him, there sat an old woman with heavy makeup, a sharp mouth, monkey cheeks, curly yellow hair, and a very cold expression on her face, as if Ye Fan owed her millions.
"Dad, Mom, Ye Fan and I are here to see you."
Seeing a man and a woman looking at her coldly, Dong Yuejun smiled bravely.
"Um!"
The little old man snorted slightly, moved half of his body to let Ye Fan and the others go in, and then slammed the door hard with a bang.
Yiyi was startled and huddled in Dong Yuejun's arms, secretly looking at her grandparents with dead faces.
The old woman looked a little better when she saw that Ye Fan was carrying a lot of things in his hand, which seemed to be quite valuable.
"Ye Fan, didn't you say you won't come to my house even if you die? Why did you come here just a few years ago? Are you because you think your life is too long and you are rushing to be punished by God?"
The old woman crossed her arms, her face full of disgust and disgust.
Ye Fan was confused, but because of his junior status, he did not get angry, but smiled respectfully: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, one family does not speak the same language. I was not sensible earlier..."
"Put your things down, you can go." The little old man snorted coldly, interrupting Ye Fan.
Dong Yuejun frowned, "Dad, where can I find someone like you? Ye Fan kindly came to see you, but..."
"What's wrong with me?" the little old man snorted contemptuously: "Back then, you ran away with him on the way to welcome the bride, and we were all embarrassed by you! In the past few years, you haven't even sent a penny home.
Send, what kind of good looks do you want me to give him?!"
"Ah?" Ye Fan was stunned for a moment and looked at Dong Yuejun suspiciously.
Dong Yuejun pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "Dad, it was you who went too far at that time. You asked Ye Fan to buy a house, and his family bought it and paid the 200,000 gift money.
But when you pick up the bride, you want him to give you and Xiaotao each a house in Binhai, which really doesn't make sense."
"What do you mean it doesn't make sense! Dong Yuejun, what's the point of giving birth to you? If your elbows are turned outward, are you still my daughter?!"
The little old man was furious.
“Don’t his family have three houses in Binhai? What’s wrong with giving us two?!
We worked so hard to bring you up, don’t we just hope that you can improve the conditions of the family by getting married? Look at what you did!
The wedding was not held, the wine money was not paid, and your mother and I received no benefits except the two hundred thousand!
I went to Binhai to find you, but Ye Fan actually wanted to beat me out, and you didn’t even dare to fart next to me!"
Ye Fan immediately guessed the general situation from the few words said by Dong Yuejun and the little old man.
It turns out that their engagement was set long ago, and their parents also handed over the gift money to each other in advance.
But on the wedding day, Dong Yuejun's parents suddenly wanted to increase the price and directly demanded Ye Zhonghua's two properties in Binhai, otherwise they would not marry their daughter to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan had a bad temper and turned around and left with the wedding team.
I never thought that Dong Yuejun was also very hot-tempered. He ran away with Ye Fan in front of his parents and didn't even attend the wedding.
Later, Ye Zhonghua and his mother came to discuss the matter, but Dong Yuejun's parents refused to agree and would not marry their daughter unless they were given a house.
Six or seven years ago, betrothal gifts in the Nanjiang area were generally around 100,000 yuan, and the woman would also give some as a dowry to make the life of the young couple easier.
However, Dong Yuejun's parents not only refused to dowry, but also dragged away the 200,000 gift money. They even opened their eyes and set their sights on Ye Zhonghua's two houses in Binhai.
How could Ye Zhonghua agree to such a request?
Those two houses were left by Ye Fan's grandfather to Ye Fan, and they lived in the unit's fund-raising housing.
Everyone should know very well that the unit house only has the right to live in it and cannot be sold privately. It will not be until the real estate reform two years later that this unit house truly belongs to Ye Zhonghua.
But at that time, Ye Zhonghua only had two properties in his name. If they were both given to Dong Yuejun's parents, what would Ye Fan and his wife do? Would they sleep on the street?
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, Dong Yuejun stole the household registration book and directly collected the marriage certificate with Ye Fan.
Then the two of them ran to Binhai, regardless of how Dong Yuejun's parents made trouble.
Dong Yuejun's parents were so angry that they took the whole family to Binhai to find trouble with Ye Fan, hoping to force him to give up the property, otherwise they would take their daughter away and divorce him.
Dong Yuejun was already pregnant at that time, and Ye Fan had not yet fallen out of control, so he was quite bloody and drove people away with a stick.
Dong Yuejun knew very well how sinister his parents were. If he went back with them, life would definitely be harder, and he would be sold by them again sooner or later.
Therefore, she placed all her hopes on Mark.
Ye Fan did not disappoint her, his attitude was extremely tough, he protected her behind him and did not allow anyone to touch her hair.
It was precisely because of this incident that Dong Yuejun was completely devoted to Ye Fan. He followed him through hardships for several years, until Ye Fan was so bad that he could no longer hold on.
"...I don't have a daughter like you, and I don't have a son-in-law like you. Get out of here...if you haven't left yet, damn it!"
The little old man pointed at Dong Yuejun and cursed, and finally picked up a broom from the door and smashed it on Dong Yuejun's body.
Dong Yuejun still had Yiyi in her arms. The little girl was so frightened that she hugged her mother tightly, and tears of fear fell down her face.
Upon seeing this, Ye Fan quickly stepped forward, hugged Dong Yuejun with one hand, grabbed the broom with the other hand, and pushed it to the side with force.
The little old man accidentally fell to the ground with the broom in his hand.
"You...you dare to attack your opponent?" The little old man was furious and was about to get up from the ground to teach Ye Fan a lesson.
Ye Fan poured a plastic bag over him, which contained ten thick wads of banknotes.
"Xiaojun and I are here to give money this time, do you still want to drive us away?" Ye Fan's attitude became indifferent.
Dong Yuejun's father is a real villain and treats his daughter as a commodity.
To him, Dong Yuejun is just a tool for profit, otherwise it would be impossible to say that he would trade her for a house.
The little old man's eyes bulged, he was speechless and held the banknotes in his arms.
The old woman was also stunned, and quickly stood up and walked towards Dong Yuejun and Ye Fan.
"Hey, we haven't seen each other for a few years, you guys seem to be doing well!" She helped the little old man up and glanced at Dong Yuejun: "I remember that Ye Fan owed a lot of debt, has it been paid off now?"
Later, the reason why they did not go to Binhai to look for Ye Fan and Dong Yuejun was because they heard that Ye Fan owed a lot of loan sharks, and Ye Zhonghua sold three houses, which was not enough for him to repay the debt.
Dong's father and Dong's mother were afraid of being implicated, so they deleted Dong Yuejun's phone calls and pretended they had never given birth to this daughter.
Yesterday, Dong Yuejun still contacted them through other people and said that he would come back to visit today.
At first, Dong’s father and Dong’s mother thought that Dong Yuejun and Ye Fan were desperate and wanted to come back to borrow money, but they didn’t expect that they were here to give money!
Dong's father got up from the ground, holding an armful of banknotes with a happy face.
"Are you here to give money? You should have told me earlier! Damn it, go boil water and make tea!"
"No, you can just receive the money. Dong Yuejun and I have to go back to our hometown to visit other relatives!" Ye Fan waved his hand, not wanting to stay here for a second longer.
Dong Yuejun did the same, hugging Yiyi and walking out.
