Ni Yang paused for a moment and then continued,
"After marrying Wu Qiang, you would transform from a young girl into a housewife not only bearing children for Wu Qiang but also acting as a stepmother to his two daughters! You are only seventeen years old this year! If you don’t marry Wu Qiang, you can continue your studies, go to university, and have endless possibilities in the future! Your life was almost completely ruined by your grandmother’s actions!"
Ni Yang’s words were cutting, and Wu Yanyun’s face changed, "But she is, after all, my grandmother."
Upon hearing this, Ni Yang knew Wu Yanyun would definitely be soft-hearted towards Grandma Wu in the future. Knowing how manipulative Grandma Wu could be, if Wu Yanyun became soft-hearted, who knew what she might end up doing!
No!
It was essential to completely sever the notion Wu Yanyun held towards the Wu Family!
Ni Yang narrowed her eyes and continued, "Just because she’s your grandmother, does that mean she can just sell you off to someone else to become a stepmother? Yanyun, if you think just because your grandmother is old, you should forgive all her faults, then you might as well go back and marry Wu Qiang or even Zhao Qiang! This time, I absolutely will not meddle anymore!"
Wu Yanyun’s face went pale and she immediately explained, "No! Sister Yangyang, that’s not what I mean. I wasn’t suggesting you are meddling too much, I’m just a bit worried about her because she’s getting old."
Ni Yang remained calm, "Yanyun, everyone must take responsibility for their faults, old age is not an excuse to escape responsibility! Your grandmother is only reaping what she sowed! Uncle, don’t you think I’m right?"
At that last sentence, Ni Yang looked up at Wu Jinshu.
Wu Jinshu initially shared the same thoughts as Wu Yanyun.
After all, that woman was his own mother, and he couldn’t just ignore her.
But after listening to Ni Yang, he came to a sudden realization.
Yes.
Old age should not be an excuse to avoid responsibilities!
If it wasn’t for Ni Yang today, Wu Yanyun’s life would be ruined.
Wu Jinshu nodded, "Yangyang is right."
Seeing Wu Jinshu agree, Ni Yang sighed in relief, thinking he might have been foolishly filial.
