Chapter 27: Chapter 27, The Ring, is the Mother-in-Law’s Approval _1
Meng Yunhan was on the verge of tears, not even noticing the numbness in her legs.
“Hanhan, time to wake up. Dinner will be ready soon.” Yun’s mother noticed her red eyes and instinctively softened her voice.
This daughter-in-law of hers was even younger than her own daughter. Her parents had died when she was young, and now that her son wasn’t home, Yun’s mother decided to treat her daughter-in-law like her own child.
Meng Yunhan looked at Yun’s mother and forced a smile, “I’m sorry, mother, I’ve overslept again.”
Yun’s mother glanced at her belly and joked, “I used to be young too.”
Meng Yunhan turned even more embarrassed. She didn’t know how much her mother-in-law had heard and her face was flushed with confusion.
Yun’s mother laughed again. Her daughter-in-law was really shy.
After dinner, she wouldn’t let Meng Yunhan clean up.
Meng Yunhan’s face flushed even more. She returned to her room.
As soon as she returned to her room, she remembered about the ring and started searching for it, but once again, she found nothing.
She had already looked in the kitchen but found nothing, because the kitchen was very clean. And the living room was clear at a glance.
Where could the ring have gone?
Could Yun Hao have taken it?
But why would he take the ring?
Meng Yunhan could only lie on the bed thinking about it, unable to sleep for a long time.
Her body ached and she still thought about the ring and Yun Hao.
The ring symbolized her mother-in-law’s approval.
She hadn’t looked at the ring closely because she hadn’t had the peace of mind to do so.
The ring was a good beginning.
Now at New Year’s, the women didn’t have to work, and the men took turns.
She appeared to be teaching.
She should have brought the textbooks.
She suddenly remembered something else, that was to go to the waste collection station. If she could retrieve the lost items, it would be great. She could use the excuse of getting textbooks for the children to go to the collection station, but she couldn’t bring out anything good.
What should she do now?
Her hands clenched and her brows furrowed.
But in the next moment, she was somewhere else, and she was completely unaware of it.
When she recovered her senses, she found herself standing in a strange place, feeling a little scared of the deserted surroundings. Fear arose in her heart, but she dismissed it immediately. She wasn’t afraid of death in her previous life, why should she be afraid now?
With her heart pounding, she looked around and called out tentatively, “Is anyone there? Is anyone there?”
There was no echo, no sound of footsteps, just the loud thumping of her own heartbeat.
She looked down at her feet, it was muddy ground. Walking a little further, she saw a thatched cottage, a very rustic one, “Is anyone there?”
But no one responded after a long time.
Meng Yunhan was puzzled. She was supposed to be in her room just now, how did she end up in this unfamiliar place?
“Is anyone there? I’m sorry for the disturbance,” she had to leave here and find out where this place was, only then could she leave and go back.
This place gave her a feel of fear and she didn’t want to be trapped here.
She was afraid that everything that happened previously was a dream, and that she’s finally awoken from it.
Unfortunately, after a long time, there was still no response from anyone.
