Chapter 185: Chapter 185: Escaping is the Only Way Now_1
After dinner, little Zhang Yunxuan held four chive dumplings with a straw hat and went home.
“Hanhan, your mother and I have already agreed to take Ahao and Little Huzi to live in the town,” Father Yun expressed directly. “So, you should pack up soon. When the sun is less intense, I will take you guys to town.”
The reason why Father Yun was in such a hurry was the fear of unexpected accidents.
Mother Yun was stunned. She hadn’t thought that the old man would make such a decision.
Meng Yunhan cleared the bowls and chopsticks and glanced at Mother Yun. Seeing her upset, he didn’t say anything and headed to the kitchen.
“Parents, parents-in-law, rest assured, I will certainly treat Ahao as my own son and Little Huzi as my own grandson. There won’t be any unpleasant rumors.”
Mother Yun felt uncomfortable being blocked by these words.
Father Yun graciously said, “In-laws, we don’t have much food at home, but don’t worry. The corn will be coming in shortly, and in a couple of months, new rice will be ready.”
Old Father Zhao sincerely laughed, “For these years, I have saved some food coupons. They should be enough. If we transfer Hanhan and their household registration to the town, they will receive more food every month. You don’t have any objections to this, do you?”
“Transfer the household registration?”
“Yes, after the transfer, they will be allowed a food ration. In-laws, we wouldn’t want to see Little Huzi and the others go hungry, would we? And it’s not practical always coming here to pick up food; it could lead my two sons to complain.”
Mother Yun felt like her little maneuver was seen through by Old Father Zhao. She turned away, feeling awkward.
“If we can get our household registration transferred to town, that would be good. But I’m afraid it might not be easy.” Father Yun thought of his grandson’s household registration being changed to the town. This was something to celebrate. Regardless of whatever they ended up doing, it would be much more convenient than in the village.
“I will ask around, and make an extra trip if necessary.” Nôv(el)B\\jnn
“Good, good.”
Meng Yunhan went back to her room to pack her clothes, tossing the book and whatnot into the space, including some unworn winter clothes. Picking and choosing, she tidied up everything neatly.
“Ahao, we are going to live in the town today. I have accepted my uncle as my dad. You won’t blame me for making this decision, will you? I know not all fingers are of the same length. What my parents did wasn’t overly severe, but it still affected Little Huzi. I don’t want him to bear those crimes. Plus, you are now a part of our family. Whether you will ever wake up or not, you will always be my man, Huzi’s father. When my parents get older, I won’t hold back in providing or giving money. Whatever amount my brothers give, I will match it.”
That incident had led Meng Yunhan to become disheartened. She wanted to quickly leave this house, the place surrounded by whispers and rumors.
To head to the town and live the life they wanted.
They didn’t want to go out and be greeted by people’s sidelong glances.
All of this was caused by her two sister-in-laws.
Escape is the only path now.
Escape is not cowardice but waiting for the day of success to return.
With the college entrance examination approaching, she must pass. That would be her starting point.
“After that incident, it’s impossible for me to get along well with my two sister-in-laws. I just envy them, each having a man to love them. But all you could do was lay down. I believe that you will wake up one day, right? I haven’t changed much.”
