Chapter 475: We Were Holding A Funeral For

"What should we do now?" Sure enough, just as the nurse stepped out of the ward, Old Madam Han turned to look at Yang Jianming and Mother Yang. She sternly added, "We cannot abort the child. You heard what the doctors said earlier. Ziyan’s womb was stimulated due to this incident, and if she aborts the baby, she will never be able to get pregnant in the future. Our family cannot afford such consequences."

Meng Yunhan raised her head and glared at Old Madam Han. She and Han Ziyan were already dying after listening to what the doctors had said to them. If they knew that they would end up losing even the shorn by reaching for the wool, then Han Ziyan would never have taken such a step. Han Ziyan was having a particularly bad time. Now, listening to Old Madam Han’s words, she felt like someone had stabbed her in her heart.

Meng Yunhan was just as upset. Sure enough, since Han Ziyan was not from the Han family, Old Madam Han did not feel the slightest bit bad about pushing her into such a dangerous fire pit. If it were Han Ruochen or Han Xuehan, she was sure that this old woman would have fought to the death rather than letting her get married to Yang Jianming.

Just as she was about to fight with Old Madam Han, she remembered that the Yang family was still around, and she couldn’t let them laugh at her and her daughter. She swallowed the words that were rushing to her throat.

Mother Yang’s expression was not good, but she also knew that she could not ignore this matter. "We are willing, but there is no need for us to set a banquet to bring the bride in, right? Anyway, she is already carrying the child of our family, so she is a member of our Yang family from this moment onwards." Mother Yang knew that Meng Yunhan would never agree to such a request, and she would definitely refuse. She could then use Meng Yunhan’s objection to reject the marriage.

Sure enough, just as she had expected, Meng Yunhan jumped up from the stool beside Han Ziyan’s bed. "What do you mean? You want to take advantage of my daughter and even refuse to hold a banquet for her? How can this be done? Don’t think that just because she is carrying the child of your Yang family, you can do whatever you want!"

Meng Yunhan’s eyes turned red when she thought about how Mother Yang had already started to bully her daughter even when she had not yet married into the Yang family. Once her daughter married into that family, how would this woman treat her? She dared not even think about it.

"Aiya, why are you getting angry, Mrs Han?" When Mother Yang saw how angry Meng Yunhan was, she was inevitably pleased. Hah, did the Han family think that they could control her however they wanted? She chuckled inwardly. Putting on a proactive expression, she said, "I know that my words don’t sound good, but they are logical in the current situation. Firstly, my son doesn’t have a job, and we cannot arrange so much money to hold a banquet. Secondly, I don’t think that there is a need to hold one either. After all, your daughter loves my son so much that she was willing to snatch him away from her sister."

"You!" Meng Yunhan was so furious that she wanted to rush forward and fight with Mother Yang, but with Old Madam Han glaring at her, she did not dare to. She could only say unconvincingly, "No matter what, there is no way this matter can be settled like this." Her daughter had been wronged to death by these people. How could they just brush her daughter off in such a manner? If her daughter marries Yang Jianming, that too without a banquet, then she was worried that Han Ziyan would never be able to raise her head in the future.

She knew that she could not win against Mother Yang, so Meng Yunhan turned to look at Old Madam Han. She spoke with a tone of grievance, "Mom, it’s bad enough that you are making Ziyan marry into their family, but now look at their attitude. They are acting as if we are forcing their son to marry Ziyan when it is them who ruined Ziyan like this."

As she spoke, she glared at Yang Jianming with hatred. It was all because of this man that her daughter was in such a situation.

Old Madam Han was amused. She curled her lips and spoke angrily, "What do you mean by I am the one who is making her marry into their family’? Who asked your daughter to get entangled with their son? Was it me?" It was the same as a thief calling a cop a thief. She had done nothing wrong, and yet she was the one who was getting blamed.

Meng Yunhan lowered her head nervously. "Mom, that—"

"Stop speaking; the more you speak, the more I feel disgusted. I must have been so blind and deaf that I allowed my son to marry a woman like you."Old Madam Han sneered. She knew what Meng Yunhan was thinking, but was this the time and situation to worry about pride? With the situation at hand, it was good enough if Han Ziyan was married off. Who was so free to worry about dowry, betrothal gifts, and banquets? But it turned out that there was one such fool beside her.

Sighing, she turned to look at the person causing trouble and said to Mother Yang, "What you say is indeed logical."

Mother Yang raised her head with pride when she heard Old Madam Han supporting her. But then she heard Old Madam Han say, "But we cannot marry her off just like that, can we?"

As she spoke she glanced at Old Madam Han and smiled knowingly. "I mean, you too wouldn’t want everyone to know that your son has committed hooliganism?"
