Refusing to marry into a wealthy family, the richest man's uncle coaxed me into marriage

At around ten o'clock, my aunt got off work and came to the hospital to take Yangyang home. Although there was a nurse, Si Tong was worried and stayed by the bedside every night.

The next morning at around eight o'clock, three experts came to check on my grandmother as usual.

This time, grandma refused to cooperate. She lay there with her eyes closed, not letting anyone approach her and not answering any questions.

"Grandma, don't be like this, your health is important." Si Tong gently placed his hand on his grandmother's shoulder, "You are now in the critical period of recovery after the operation, and you can't make any mistakes..."

Grandma still closed her eyes, "If something goes wrong, it goes wrong. It's best to die, then no one will stop you from pursuing happiness."

Si Tong's face turned pale.

The three experts looked at each other, not understanding why this patient, who had always been cooperative, suddenly became uncooperative.

Si Tong pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled: "I'm sorry, grandma didn't sleep well last night, you can come back in the afternoon."

The expert nodded, said nothing, and walked out with the assistant doctor.

Si Tong stood there for a moment, then sat down next to his grandmother, reached into the quilt and held his grandmother's hand.

After a moment of silence, she said, "Do you know the circumstances under which I first met Han Shen?"

"It was the day I went to Haicheng for re-enrollment. I remember you got up at around four in the morning to make dumplings for me. You said that eating dumplings before leaving for a long journey would bring peace and safety."

"It's a pity that my mother was in a hurry to go back to Haicheng. She urged me to leave before you finished cooking. You chased after the car, wiping your tears and constantly asking her to take me to have breakfast."

"But later, she didn't take me to have breakfast, and I didn't even have a sip of water until the evening..."

Si Tong drooped her long, curly eyelashes, each of which was distinct, and chattered to her grandmother about every detail of her experience since she met Yu Hanshen.

He helped and protected her time and again, vented her anger without making a sound, arranged for her to have a physical check-up, took her to see a Chinese doctor, and took Chinese medicine every day without fail.

She is a person of few words and it is rare for her to say so many words in one breath.

Si Tong finished speaking and continued, "You are afraid that he will abandon me and that I will become my second mother, but have you ever thought about whether I will be sad if I miss him and whether I will miss happiness?"

Grandma's eyelids moved and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, but she didn't open her eyes.

Si Tong slowly stroked his grandmother's dry hands, "From childhood to adulthood, I have never asked you for anything. This time, I want to ask you, can you please not force me to leave him?"

The cell phone ringtone suddenly rang.

Si Tong was silent for a moment, then reached for her phone from the bedside table. Seeing Yu Hanshen's number, she turned around and glanced at her grandmother, "I'm going out to answer the call."

Closing the ward door, Si Tong took two deep breaths and walked to a deserted place while answering the phone.

The man's calm and magnetic voice immediately came from the phone: "Why is grandma not cooperating?"

It must be the expert who called him and told him.

Si Tong opened the window in the corridor and let the hot wind outside blow away her messy thoughts. "Grandma thinks that you and I are not from the same world. You will abandon me one day and will not agree to my being with you."

She said it in a joking tone, and there was even a hint of levity in her voice.

Yu Hanshen seemed to have heard the emotions she was hiding, and he said, "Don't be afraid."

"I'll be there in two hours, wait for me."

After saying that, Yu Hanshen hung up the phone, not giving Si Tong any chance to refuse.

Si Tong was stunned for a moment. Two hours?

Then I realized that he was planning to come here by plane.

Si Tong held the phone and looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance. His uneasy heart became calm at this moment, a calmer feeling than ever before.

After standing for a while, I returned to the ward. My aunt was resting today. She just brought Yangyang to the hospital. As soon as she entered the ward, she noticed that the atmosphere was not right. The nurse told her about the conflict between the grandparents and grandchildren.

When Si Tong came in, his aunt was comforting his grandmother.

The grandmother was determined not to let her granddaughter follow in her daughter's footsteps. A brief moment of pain was better than a lifetime of regret.

"Grandma." Si Tong called her softly, "Han Shen...will be in Tongcheng in two hours."

It was obvious why he came to Tongcheng, to reconcile the conflict between his grandmother and Si Tong.

Grandma opened her eyes and looked over. "So what if he comes in person? Does he want to deal with me if I don't agree?"

"You are my grandmother. He respects you so much, how could he..." Si Tong subconsciously spoke to Yu Hanshen.

The grandmother turned her face away, her tone a little angry: "You came just in time, I also want to ask him, how can he have the nerve to attack my granddaughter at such an old age!"

"Mom, you just had such a big operation, you can't get angry. So, Tongtong, take Yangyang out to play for a while, and I'll stay here with mom."

My aunt tried to smooth things over.

Si Tong takes Yang Yang out.

My aunt sighed, "Why are you doing this? Tongtong has had a hard life since she was a child. It's rare for her to meet someone who treats her well..."

"What's the point of being nice to her? It's only temporary. Wasn't that man nice to Xiao Shuang back then? He coaxed Xiao Shuang's heart into him, but what did he do later? He abandoned her when she got pregnant!"

"..." When talking about Han Lingli, my aunt choked for a moment.

At that time, Han Lingli worked in Haicheng and was said to be a nanny in a wealthy family. Every time she called home, one could hear her mention the eldest young master of that family in her joyful and shy voice.

She said that the young master was gentle and kind, and was especially good to her, and her tone was full of pride as if she was about to become a phoenix.

Then suddenly one day, she came home in a panic, saying that she was pregnant. She said that the baby was from the eldest son of that family, and that the young master wanted to abort the baby.

She refused and ran away. Her grandmother was so angry that she almost fainted and wanted to take her to have an abortion. Han Lingli threatened to commit suicide, but she insisted on keeping the child.

Later, her belly grew bigger and bigger. When she was about to give birth, she went back to Haicheng. When she came back, she was holding a baby girl in her arms.

She looked haggard and said that the eldest young master still refused to have her child.

……

Si Tong had just brought Yang Yang downstairs when he received a call from Li Xin. She was on her way to the hospital and asked Si Tong if she needed her to bring anything.

Si Tong said no.

Ten minutes later, the two met in the small garden downstairs of the inpatient department.

Li Xin looked as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.

Si Tong sat under the shade of a tree in the garden, watching Yang Yang running around on the grass nearby. "Do you have something to say?"

Li Xin smiled awkwardly, "Did you figure it out? This morning, I overheard my mom and dad chatting and heard some gossip about you..."

Si Tong frowned slightly, "What gossip?"

"Then I tell you, don't tell Third Grandma that I told you that." Li Xin warned her worriedly, then came over excitedly and whispered in her ear:

"My parents said you are the illegitimate daughter of a wealthy man in Haicheng."

She knew that Si Tong was abandoned by his father, but this was the first time she heard that the person who abandoned Si Tong was a wealthy man.

Si Tong paused, turned to look at her, and waited for her next words.

Li Xin had already finished speaking.

Seeing that she didn't follow up, Si Tong turned back calmly and continued to look at Yang Yang.

"Don't react so calmly. You are the illegitimate daughter of a wealthy man. Have you ever thought about going to Haicheng to look for your father? If you succeed in finding your father, you will be the daughter of a wealthy family. Then I will be the best friend of the daughter of a wealthy family. I am excited just thinking about it."

Si Tong thought of her aunt's words, that Han Lingli had killed her father's other daughter, and a sneer appeared on her lips: "If I fail to recognize my father, I might even lose my life."

Li Xin was frightened by her serious tone, "How is that possible?"

But on second thought, the intrigues within wealthy families can indeed cost lives.
