Chapter 116 Plans really can't keep up with changes.
Yu Ningyao shook her head and choked up, saying, "Mother, let's help Second Aunt."
Shen Jinzhu carried her daughter out of the house.
She sighed, "It's not appropriate for us to get involved in this matter. Your second aunt has to take charge herself. And it's up to your second aunt's family to step in."
Yu Ning has a flat, narrow mouth.
My second aunt's family is far away from the capital, so how could they possibly come to support her?
She muttered to herself, "Getting married is terrifying. I don't want to get married in the future."
Shen Jinzhu was startled.
My daughter is only two years old, how could she have such thoughts?
It seems that what happened to her second brother's family really frightened her.
“Not everyone goes through this. Look at your father and me, aren’t we very loving and harmonious?” Shen Jinzhu quickly comforted her daughter.
"Besides, with your three older brothers around, if anyone dares to bully you, your mother will send them to their door to teach them a lesson. They'll know that our Yu family's precious daughter is not someone anyone can bully."
Hearing this, Yu Ningyao finally smiled.
But then she thought about it again. According to the life plan the system had given her, she was to marry the crown prince and compete for his favor in the future.
With her father's position as a sixth-rank official, how could he challenge the Crown Prince?
That's going to be tough.
The smile on her face vanished again.
The system shared her worries.
My sweetheart, do you still remember our mission?
After spending a year together, the system and she had become close, and the system no longer addressed her as "host" in a distant way, but instead called her "my darling" like her parents.
I remember, I remember. I haven't forgotten.
Yu Ningyao quickly comforted it.
I had originally thought that Her Highness would definitely invite the master to my second birthday celebration.
[I'll shamelessly beg a few top experts to be my mentors and learn diligently to improve my competitiveness.]
Who could have imagined that the old lady would suddenly die?
She's dead, so I can't have a birthday party; I'll have to spend it quietly.
Yu Ningyao was also helpless.
It's really hard to keep up with the changes in plans.
After hearing what she said, the system had no way to refute it.
This really can't be blamed on Yu Ningyao.
She's just a baby.
……
After the vigil ended.
Yu Kangnian couldn't wait to go back to his wife to confess and see if she had forgiven him.
But when he returned to the bedroom, he found the room completely empty.
"Where is the madam?" he asked sternly, looking at the servants who were cleaning the house.
The maidservant trembled with fright and hurriedly replied, "Madam has been taken away by the Third Madam."
Yu Kangnian hurried to the third house's courtyard.
While lying in bed, Zhao Yining heard from the maid of the third household that the second master had arrived.
Startled, she immediately hid under the covers.
"Third sister-in-law, I don't want to see him. Tell him to leave immediately."
Seeing Zhao Yining trembling, Shen Jinzhu quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, if you don't want to see him, I'll have my husband take care of him right away."
After hearing her words, Zhao Yining gradually calmed down.
Shen Jinzhu got up and called Yu Kangjing over, asking him to go see Yu Kangnian.
Yu Kangjing peeked into the room and nodded.
Although I didn't see the scars on my second sister-in-law's body, just hearing the lady's description was enough to frighten me.
He went out to meet Yu Kangnian.
"Third brother, how is your second sister-in-law?" Yu Kangnian's face was full of worry.
Yu Kangjing smiled and said, "Second brother, don't worry. With the maids taking care of her, second sister-in-law will definitely recover soon."
"That's good. Then take me to see her quickly. I have so much to say to her." Yu Kangnian peeked around, trying to find Zhao Yining.
But Yu Kangjing stopped him.
"Second brother, the doctor said that second sister-in-law needs to rest and should not be frightened."
Upon hearing this, Yu Kangnian's face darkened: "What do you mean by that? Do you think I would scare her?"
Yu Kangjing's smile vanished.
"Second brother, the way you looked yesterday would terrify anyone. I saw it, and I had nightmares all night."
Yu Kangnian: ...
Seeing that he couldn't speak, Yu Kangjing continued, "If you really want your second sister-in-law to recover quickly, let her stay in the third house for a few days. Maybe after a few days, she'll forget about this, recover, and go back with you."
Yu Kangnian took a deep breath and reluctantly accepted his explanation.
"Surely it's alright if Lie'er and Xi'er come to see her? They're her own sons."
Yu Kangjing nodded: "Okay, let them come."
Yu Kangnian left reluctantly to go back to his two sons.
Yu Zilie and Yu Zixi were being taken care of by Aunt Rong, and they immediately came to greet him when they saw him.
"Father, how is Mother?"
Yu Kangnian looked at his two sons: "That's good. You two go see your third aunt tomorrow and try to persuade her to come back as soon as possible."
“Exactly. It’s not like she doesn’t have a husband and children. What’s the point of her staying with your third uncle and aunt?” Aunt Rong chimed in.
"But why did Mother get injured out of nowhere?" Yu Zilie asked, puzzled.
Yu Kangnian replied calmly, "She was so heartbroken when she learned of your grandfather's passing that she tripped and fell, hitting her head."
“Mother was so careless.” Yu Zilie didn’t doubt his words and continued, “Then why couldn’t she recuperate in our yard? Why did she have to go to Third Aunt’s place?”
Yu Kangnian: "It's so boring to recover alone. With your third aunt keeping her company, she'll recover faster."
Fearing he would continue to press for answers, Yu Kangnian added, "Alright, stop asking so many questions. Just bring your mother back tomorrow."
Yu Zilie nodded and agreed to take his younger brother to visit their mother at the third house the next day.
The next morning, the two brothers went to the third house's courtyard early.
Upon learning that only her two sons had come and that Yu Kangnian had not, Zhao Yining breathed a sigh of relief and had Shen Jinzhu bring him in.
"Mother." Seeing her like this, Yu Zixi couldn't help but want to cry.
"Don't be afraid, Mommy is alright." Zhao Yining patted her son's head.
Yu Zilie frowned as he looked at the bandage on his mother's head and said, "Mother, you're so careless. How did you manage to bump your head while walking?"
Zhao Yining was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer.
They were unaware that Yu Kangnian had hit her.
It seems he blocked the news.
Should she tell the truth?
Tell them that their father was a villain who beat his wife until she bled.
Zhao Yining was undecided for a moment.
Before she could answer, Yu Zilie continued, "Luckily you're alright. You have no idea how worried and sad your father was when he found out you were injured."
Thinking of Yu Kangnian's repentant expression each time, Zhao Yining couldn't help but tremble.
Yu Zixi realized what was happening when he saw his mother's horrified expression.
Mother's head was definitely not injured as Father said, she didn't fall and hurt herself.
Instead, she was beaten by her father.
