Cheng Su couldn’t quite understand what she felt toward Mother Qi, her mother-in-law. Old-fashioned, mean-spirited, stingy, unknowledgeable, and especially after meddling with the birth control between her and Qi Taiguo back in the day, she preferred to keep her distance from her.
The tricky relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was something she never found a balance in. Her pleasant demeanor toward Mother Qi was all for the sake of Qi Taiguo.
So, some of the unfair things, as long as they didn’t cross her bottom line, she endured. After all, she was just an ignorant, old-fashioned rural lady.
Upon hearing that the car she was in had an accident, Cheng Su’s mind went blank and she felt dazed for a moment.
She wasn’t a cold-hearted person. The old lady had taken the bus in this weather to come take care of her and the child...
Thinking of this, Cheng Su’s heart tangled into a knot, feeling a bit guilty and uneasy.
Qi Fenglian was crying, and Cheng Su pinched the soft part of her arm, the pain bringing her some clarity.
"Big Sister, stop crying, I can’t think." Cheng Su forced herself to calm down and said.
Qi Taiguo was out on a mission, not around, and in the old home, the father-in-law was old, Qi Fengping had exams, and the younger brother was in Guangcheng. She, as the eldest daughter-in-law, had to take charge.
Liu Wenjing also patted Qi Fenglian on the shoulder.
Qi Fenglian immediately stopped crying, looked at Cheng Su, opened her mouth, but couldn’t say a word.
Cheng Su closed her eyes slightly, exhaled a long breath, and said, "Someone just said the bus flipped, but a lot of people are still alive, just a few are seriously injured, and they’ve all been taken to Xi County’s hospital. Mom hasn’t sent us news for so long; either she’s still unconscious or doesn’t know our phone numbers, that’s why there’s no news."
