hospital.

In the ward.

He Qiaoyun sat by the hospital bed, looking at Gao Hui who kept wailing, feeling utterly exhausted.

Gao Hui held her hand, her brows drooping, her breath weak: "On the way here, I saw the Xu family ancestors. They told me to tell you that you must drive that vixen Wang Jinghuai out of the family. You are the only daughter-in-law of the Xu family..."

He Qiaoyun said coldly, "If you're going to die, then die sooner rather than later. Don't talk so much."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Hui, Wang Jinghuai, and his two aunts rushed in. Xu Hui knelt down in front of the hospital bed with a look of anxiety and worry on his face.

Elderly people at this age are most vulnerable to falls; a fall is like a death sentence from the King of Hell...

"Mom, how are you feeling now...?"

Gao Hui looked up and saw Wang Jinghuai standing to the side. She went completely berserk, yelling, "You seductive vixen, get out! Get out of here!"

Wang Jinghuai glanced at He Qiaoyun, a hint of resentment on her face, "Mom, I'm your daughter-in-law now."

Gao Hui looked up to the sky and howled, "What a tragedy! I can't even die in peace. I have no face to face the ancestors of the Xu family, no face to face your father..."

Xu Hui turned around and winked at Wang Jinghuai, signaling her to leave.

Wang Jinghuai was still unconvinced, but helpless. She snorted angrily and then left the ward.

Xu Hui glanced at He Qiaoyun and questioned, "Mom was perfectly fine, how come she became like this after she went to see you!"

He Qiaoyun said in a calm tone, "Ask her yourself."

Gao Hui tilted her head and waved to He Qiaoyun, "Qiaoyun, come here, I have something to tell you."

He Qiaoyun ignored her and crossed her arms. "I have nothing to say to you. Since your son and daughter are here, I, as an outsider, have no reason to stay. I'll go back first."

After saying that, she was about to leave when Xu Hui quickly stood up and stopped her. "He Qiaoyun, you've ruined my mother, and you still want to leave!"

He Qiaoyun glanced back at Gao Hui, who then began to wail again, "I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."

Xu Hui quickly returned to the bedside, "Mom, Mom, what did the doctor say...?"

Gao Hui gave an irrelevant answer, wailing, "My dying wish... is to see you and Qiaoyun reconcile, so that I can face the ancestors of the Xu family with a clear conscience..."

Xu Hui turned his head and questioned He Qiaoyun: "He Qiaoyun, did you say something to Mom?!"

He Qiaoyun retorted with the same question: "Why don't you ask your mother what's wrong with her?"

Xu Hui growled, "He Qiaoyun, don't go too far! My mother is still lying in the hospital bed."

Gao Hui quickly interrupted their argument, saying, "I went to find Qiaoyun myself, and I also broke my leg myself."

Then, she said to Xu Hui earnestly, "Ah Hui, Wang Jinghuai is your karmic calamity. You can play with this kind of woman, but you can't have her. She's cursed, she's unlucky, she'll bring misfortune to whoever she encounters. Look, her daughter had to have brain surgery because of her. Brain surgery, that child's life is ruined. She even harms her own child, she'll harm you too. Listen to your mother, get a divorce, don't be so stubborn..."

Wang Jinghuai, who was standing outside the door, heard these words. Her daughter was a sensitive topic for her, and she was still feeling distressed.

Women are weak, but mothers are strong.

She stormed into the ward, pointing at Gao Hui and cursing, "You old hag! What nonsense are you spouting? My daughter is perfectly fine!"

Gao Hui was startled and began to wail, "Look, look, her blood demon has acted up! She's going to die! She's going to die..."

A wife is always an outsider, and Xu Hui sided with his mother. In front of everyone, he slapped Wang Jinghuai hard across the face.

A loud "snap" silenced the entire ward.

Wang Jinghuai was stunned, and even her aunt and He Qiaoyun, who were watching, were taken aback.

Only Gao Hui showed a relieved smile.

That fall wasn't in vain.

Tears welled up in Wang Jinghuai's eyes, but she had aged. After getting married, she had been tormented by trivial matters and had become quite haggard. Her hair had been messed up by Xu Hui and was lying to one side. When she cried, she no longer looked as pitiful and endearing as she had in her youth, but rather appeared somewhat desolate and weathered.

"Xu Hui, how dare you hit me..." Her eyes were filled with disbelief and despair.

Xu Hui pointed at the door and growled, "Get out."

Wang Jinghuai looked at each of them with teary eyes, then glared at He Qiaoyun before covering her face and running out of the ward.

Gao Hui smiled broadly, "That's right, it should have been done a long time ago." She turned to He Qiaoyun, "Qiaoyun, look, Ahui is really going to change this time. He has come to his senses. Can you give him another chance?"

Seeing that Gao Hui had changed her attitude towards He Qiaoyun, the two aunts, like a fence-sitter swaying in the wind, also joined in trying to persuade her.

Aunt Xu Yan said, "Yes, sister-in-law, we all dislike Wang Jinghuai, that homewrecker."

Second Aunt Xu Huan said, "You are the sister-in-law we have always recognized, and only you can be written into our Xu family genealogy."

Mentioning the family tree, Gao Hui quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, your name is on the family tree, but that little bitch's name isn't!"

Xu Hui listened to his sister and mother's attempts to reconcile them without saying a word.

In the six months since the divorce, he was the first to regret it, only then realizing how important it is to marry a virtuous, capable, and supportive woman...

He Qiaoyun found it laughable, her face full of disdain: "Who cares about being included in your Xu family's genealogy? I will not remarry Xu Hui. Whether you have the face to see your Xu family's ancestors or not is none of my business. I don't care if you see them or not."

After saying that, she left gracefully, leaving the four of them at a loss.

Gao Hui, clutching her head, continued to wail, "Oh dear, ancestors of the Xu family! It's my fault for not raising my son properly! Blame me if you must! I was wrong, I was wrong! Why didn't I kill that little vixen back then..."

Xu Hui panicked and hurriedly said, "Mom, Mom, don't be hurt. I'll go back and divorce Wang Jinghuai. I don't want those children who are demanding money anymore, not even the big ones!"

Gao Hui's headache immediately disappeared, and she asked, "Really? After the divorce, you plan to be alone? I heard Qiaoyun is still single..."

Xu Hui looked conflicted, but after a moment he seemed to make up his mind. "Qiaoyun and I have been through thick and thin for decades. It's impossible for us not to have feelings for each other. After divorcing Wang Jinghuai, I think I should try to win back Qiaoyun's heart and never get involved with any other women again."

This time he really learned his lesson.

Gao Hui smiled, a relieved smile. "That's right. It's not too late to remarry now. Look at Qiaoyun, she's been single for so long, without a single man by her side. She's definitely waiting for you to change your mind, but she's too shy to say it. I'm a woman, I can tell."

Xu Hui looked at Gao Hui, "Really?"

“Of course, when has Mom ever lied to you?” Gao Hui said, turning to look at her two daughters. “What do you think?”

Xu Yan and Xu Huan nodded in agreement, "We also think that's what Mom said."

Xu Hui smiled and said, "I knew it!"
