Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets novel Chapter 939

Chapter 939: Chapter 939: A Slap in the Face

Since you’re not getting a divorce, stop constantly arguing with Zhiyuan over this issue.

Mrs. Xue dislikes Lian Qingxuan particularly for this reason; she approached, pulling Lian Qingxuan up, and said, "Zhiyuan is sick, and you’re sick too. Are you pretending to be sick to avoid taking care of Zhiyuan?"

"No, I’m really not feeling well." Lian Qingxuan felt dizzier as Mrs. Xue tugged at her.

"Really?" Mrs. Xue didn’t believe her. Seeing that she indeed looked unwell, Mrs. Xue released her hand after forcefully pulling her up.

Lian Qingxuan swayed.

"Really." Standing by the bed, Lian Qingxuan wobbled and sat back down.

"Don’t hit my mom."

Xue Yu and Xue Xianxian heard the noise upstairs. As they entered the room, they saw Lian Qingxuan swaying on the bed while Mrs. Xue stood beside her.

Xue Yu, being ten years old and mature for his age, noticed Lian Qingxuan looking unwell and angrily glared at Mrs. Xue, "Grandma, how could you hit my mom?"

"Bad grandma."

Xue Xianxian gave Mrs. Xue a push.

Caught off guard, Mrs. Xue stumbled a bit from Xue Xianxian’s small push. Steadying herself by the wardrobe, she pointed at the angrily glaring Xue Yu, saying, "Well, I’m your actual grandma. I didn’t hit your mom; what nonsense are you talking? You eat from the Xue family and dare say such things to your grandma; truly ungrateful little brats, hard to raise properly."

Mrs. Xue trembled with anger, intending to release her hold, but how could she know Lian Qingxuan couldn’t even stand firm, falling back onto the bed?

"I clearly saw you push mom." Xue Yu pursed his lips, worriedly asking, "Mom, are you okay?"

"I’m fine. Apologize to your grandma. I’m just feeling unwell and couldn’t stand properly." Lian Qingxuan softly said, "Xiao Yu, Xianxian, she is your grandma, and you mustn’t speak to her like that."

Mrs. Xue might not be a good mother-in-law, but she is their grandma, their elder.

"Mom." Xue Yu was somewhat unwilling to apologize, but knowing Lian Qingxuan’s gentle kindness, he stood solemnly in front of Mrs. Xue, apologizing, "Grandma, I’m sorry."

"Grandma, I’m sorry." Xue Xianxian mimicked his brother and apologized.

"Hmph."

Mrs. Xue was infuriated earlier; even their apologies couldn’t quell her anger. She coldly snorted, saying, "Lian Qingxuan, look at how well you’ve raised your son and daughter, daring to speak to me like this. I have no idea how many bad things you’ve told them about me, no wonder Xiao Yu isn’t close to me at all."

"Not at all." Xue Yu immediately refuted, seeming to feel his words were incomplete, he added, "No bad words."

"Mom, Xiao Yu and Xianxian have always been with me, so they’re closer to me." Lian Qingxuan began to speak, but Mrs. Xue interrupted, saying, "So, are you saying it’s my fault that I haven’t helped raise them?"

Lian Qingxuan fell silent, pursing her lips. Looking at Mrs. Xue’s wrathful appearance, remembering when Xiao Yu and Xianxian were born, her mother-in-law acted merely as a figurehead; even the money to hire a nanny came from her. During those days, Mrs. Xue was absorbed in arranging flowers, spending her days involved in floral arts, neglecting her newly-wed daughter-in-law.

She liked the grandchildren but treated them as no more than toys, playing with them twice or so.

"Mom, that’s not what I meant." Lian Qingxuan had a headache from the argument and stood up to say, "I’m going to the hospital to see Zhiyuan."

Lian Qingxuan had only come back to take off her coat and lie on the bed. Now she stood up, put on her coat, ready to leave.

"Xiao Yu, Xianxian, behave at home." Lian Qingxuan instructed while swaying toward the door.
