He Daqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he knew that his wife was not really going to divorce. As for the illegitimate child that Chen Xueru mentioned, He Daqing did not say anything, but he felt it was unreliable from the bottom of his heart.

However, He Daqing still followed Chen Xueru's wishes. What if it worked? Even if it didn't work, he could take the opportunity to have some peace and quiet for a few days. When you reach middle age, you have no choice but to hide for a while.

When Yu Li came back, He Daqing had already left for a long time. Seeing that Chen Xueru was not as angry as she was yesterday, he carefully advised:

"Aunt Chen, my father-in-law was just fooled by Tao Ying. Don't be angry! He took the initiative to confess this time, which shows that you are still the most important to him!"

Chen Xueru didn't know how to start, but Yu Li came to her door unexpectedly:

"Is that what I'm angry about? In the old society, I've seen many people who had three wives and four concubines. What makes me angry is that he actually had a child with that woman."

"Aunt Chen, Xu Yueling..."

"Forget it, this is a matter between me and He Daqing, you youngsters should stay out of it!"

Chen Xueru seemed to not want to talk more, so she waved her hand to interrupt Yu Li and changed the subject:

"Let's talk about you two. What exactly are you and Zhuzi planning?"

When the topic turned to herself, Yu Li regretted it and wanted to slap herself twice. Why was there no need to talk so much? Why not just be a mute?

Little did she know that Chen Xueru was coming for her. Even if she hadn't said that just now, Chen Xueru would have found an opportunity to get close to her.

Yu Li, who knew nothing about this, could only wipe away tears with red eyes: "Aunt Chen, I..."

"Tears can't solve problems! Even if you get away with it this time, what about next time? Problems must be solved. Are you going to live on your tears when you're old?"

Chen Xueru was also the owner of a silk shop. In the old society, how could she, as a girl, snatch the family property from her two brothers? She must be an ordinary person.

In Chen Xueru's eyes, Yu Li was indeed sad at first because she was proud of not being able to get pregnant, but now it's just pure acting.

In fact, the other members of the He family, even He Yuzhu, knew that Yu Li was acting. But due to their years of friendship, they were too embarrassed to expose her.

Now that Chen Xueru is determined to arrange an illegitimate child for He Yuzhu, she will naturally not indulge Yu Li anymore.

"Aunt Chen...?"

Yu Li didn't expect that Chen Xueru would expose her so bluntly. She was caught off guard and stammered, unable to explain herself.

Yu Li didn't want this to happen, but she really had no choice. She definitely didn't want to get a divorce.

He Daqing and Chen Xueru, this pair of in-laws are capable. Not only do they not ask for money from their own family, they also take care of her and He Yuzhu's food, clothing and other expenses.

As for He Yuzhu, he would give her more than 70 yuan a month without reservation. Since marrying He Yuzhu, Yu Li's material life has been much better than before, and she has never worried about money.

Moreover, neither He Daqing, the father-in-law, nor Chen Xueru, the mother-in-law, had deliberately set rules for her. Unlike other daughters-in-law, who suffered from this and that every day.

Yu's relatives, classmates and friends all envied her life. Even her younger sister Yu Haitang would say some sour words from time to time.

Yu Li couldn't bear to live like this. Moreover, in her current situation, who would marry a divorced woman who couldn't have children?

Facing Chen Xueru's relentless pressure, Yu Li reluctantly told the advice her parents gave her when she returned home a few days ago:

"Aunt Chen, I plan to discuss this with Brother Zhuzi. If it doesn't work out, we can just adopt a child first!"

"Adopt? If there's someone suitable, that's not impossible!"

Prepare for both situations, and you will have more control! Chen Xueru thought about it and decided that this was something she could consider.

Yu Li didn't expect that she could convince Chen Xueru so easily. If Chen Xueru supported it, the adoption would basically be a done deal!

Thinking of this, Yu Li hurriedly sat down next to Chen Xueru and said while the iron was hot:

"Aunt Chen, this is what happened! I went back to my parents' home a few days ago, and my parents told me that there is a relative in the countryside. There are many people there, and life is already difficult. Moreover, they have encountered a disaster year, and they can no longer afford to eat."

"His family plans to give the youngest one away. The child is just two years old, and it's a boy! Aunt Chen, what do you think?"

After hearing Yu Li's description, Chen Xueru, who had just been somewhat moved, suddenly changed her expression. She looked at Yu Li with cold eyes and sneered:

"Yu Li, the He family has treated you well over the years. We really treat you as a family member. Even if you can't have children, we have never said anything bad about you!"

"As for you, it's fine if you don't know how to be grateful! But you actually teamed up with your parents to eat the pillars and wipe out the whole family!"

"I'm telling you clearly, this is wishful thinking! You, the Yu family, want to wipe out the He family, but you don't even consider your own worth!"

"There's no need for peace. Da Qing alone can take care of your Yu family! I advise you not to mistake the He family's kindness for weakness!"

Yu Li didn't dare to admit what Chen Xueru said, unless she didn't want to stay in the He family anymore:

"Aunt Chen, you misunderstood. It's just adopting a child. How can it be considered as eating up the whole family?"

"Humph! If you adopt the Yu family's child to the He family, what else can you say but destroy the entire family? Yu Li, don't forget that Zhuzi is fine, it's you who can't have children!"

If Yu Li hadn't performed well in the past few years, there wouldn't have been any trouble at the Yu family. Based on Yu Li's words, Chen Xueru suspected that the Yu family was deliberately setting up a trap to wipe out the family.

Yu Li was panicking at this moment, and kept cursing the person who gave her parents advice. If she couldn't explain it well today, being kicked out of the He family would be her best outcome:

"Aunt Chen, my parents didn't think that much. They just felt that their own relatives were more reliable than others!"

Chen Xueru had a good impression of her parents. After listening to Yu Li's explanation, her expression eased a little:

"Yu Li, since you've already said this, I might as well tell you clearly: we have also discussed the matter with you and Zhuzi!"

"If you don't have children, these kids will take care of you in your old age. Ping An is only five years older than Zhu Zi, and Yu Shui is ten years younger than Zhu Zi. With the two of them watching over you, your old age will be guaranteed!"

"You just mentioned adopting a child, and the He family will recognize the child, but he can only inherit your and Zhuzi's property in the future. We will leave the rest to the He family's own descendants!"

"As for adopting your relative's child, I advise you to give up the idea immediately. You are also familiar with the story of Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady. Zhuzi and Yushui were killed by someone, and they are very sensitive about this matter."

"If you still want to live with Zhuzi, don't even think about this anymore!"

"I understand, Aunt Chen. I'll tell my parents when I get back and ask them to go back to that relative's house!"

Seeing that Chen Xueru did not pursue the matter any further, Yu Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally dealt with it!
