Chapter 456: Chapter 456: Delivering Shoes and Driving Out Evil
Lin Yushan waited until her father had finished venting before she spoke up.
Her voice was not loud, but it was very firm.
"Dad, I know all the things you’ve said, but I trust my own eyes more. I know what kind of person Jiannan is and what kind of family the Yue family is. The path I choose is my own, and you and mom are the people in the world who love me the most. I hope you can support me."
Seeing her father about to speak, Lin Yushan continued, "As for those things that happened to Jiannan in the past, I understand them too. But who hasn’t misjudged people before? Because of this, I don’t think he’s the sort of person who doesn’t cherish what he’s got."
Lin Pengyi snorted coldly, "You’ve said it all anyway, so what more is there for me to say? I’ve raised you for so long, and all you know is to be contrary!"
Though he said this, his tone had softened somewhat.
Lin Yushan moved closer and leaned her head on her father’s shoulder with a coquettish manner.
"Dad, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have waited until the last minute to tell you, but I was scared, okay? Who made you so imposing all the time? I was afraid you would get angry."
Her father’s face loosened a little as he was cajoled by his daughter’s drawn-out speech.
"If you are afraid of me getting angry, you could choose someone else, hmph!"
"Dad~~ just meet him once. If you really feel it’s not right, we can talk about it again, okay?"
Miao Cui also chimed in to persuade, "Anyway, meeting him won’t cost you a piece of flesh. You know from working all the time that seeing is believing; don’t just listen to gossip and dismiss someone outright."
Being persuaded by his wife and daughter, Lin Pengyi finally raised his hands in surrender.
"Alright, alright, I can’t win an argument against the two of you. Let’s meet, meet! Are you happy now?"
"You’re the best!"
After Lin Yushan had successfully persuaded her father, she secretly thanked her mother.
Miao Cui tapped her daughter’s head, "A grown daughter is not under her mother’s control, is she? What else can we do?"
Just like her dad said, who made them raise such a headstrong child?
Meanwhile, Yue Jiannan, who received a phone call from his girlfriend letting him know he could come over, had no idea he was so close to not even being able to set foot in their house without getting kicked out.
He cheerfully carried various gifts, ready to get into the car.
His family still put out their best display at home.
Today, Yue Jiandong left the family car for the youngest brother and went to the department store with Zhang Ying by bus.
Just before leaving, Yue Jiannan realized his new shoes were missing.
"Where are my shoes?"
Yue Qingqing was squatting in the bathroom, poked her head out, "Here they are."
Yue Jiannan went over and saw Yue Qingqing was cleaning the soles of his shoes, and he was immediately touched.
"You really are Uncle’s little cotton-padded jacket."
Yue Qingqing wiped the soles clean and handed them to her uncle.
"Uncle, go for it, you’ll definitely be alright."
Reassured by his little niece’s auspicious words, Yue Jiannan walked away full of confidence with his belongings.
But...
What exactly did his little niece use to wash his soles with, not soap, right? Why did it feel a bit slippery when walking?
After washing her hands, Yue Qingqing sat down beside her grandmother to watch TV.
Lin Chunju stared intently at the screen, seemingly asking casually.
"Is the youngest in trouble?"
Yue Qingqing chuckled, "Not anymore."
She was a little curious, "Grandma, how did you guess?"
Lin Chunju leaned back on the cushion, "As people age, they see more. I heard a story from my mother a long time ago."
There was an ordinary family, who were generally kind-hearted and did some good deeds.
One day, the man of the house went to work in the fields, leaving his wife alone at home to do chores.
Suddenly, she heard someone knocking at the door. When the woman came out, it was an old lady with a wrinkled face.
The old lady coughed and asked the mistress, "Do you have any shoes? Give them to me."
The mistress felt it was peculiar since it was normal for someone to ask for money or food, but why would someone beg for shoes?
She shook her head and said no.
The old lady was insistent and asked twice more.
The mistress still refused, and the old lady walked away sighing.
After a while, the mistress suddenly felt uneasy. Thinking back, she could not remember the old lady’s face at all.
That’s when she realized something was amiss.
