Chapter 223 - 223 Half-truth

223 Half-truth
Seeing this, Li Xin knew that Yu Yan had really lied to her. No wonder after resting for a while, there was no longer any sign of illness on her face.
She couldn’t hold back her anger and scolded Yu Yan sternly, “Kneel down!” ...
Li Xin’s years of intimidation made Yu Yan’s legs go weak and she automatically knelt down. Her face also turned pale.
Li Xin glared at Yu Yan. “Raise your hands!”
Yu Yan raised her palm shakily with her palm facing up.
Li Xin used the wooden handle of the iron spoon to hit her palm a few times.
Yu Hai heard Li Xin’s reprimand at the top of the stairs. After entering the room, he quickly closed the door and grabbed Li Xin’s hand as he advised anxiously, “Let’s talk things out. Let’s listen to the reason the child lied first.”
When Yu Yan saw her adoptive father present, she relaxed a little. She quickly thought of an excuse and said with a long face, “I just wanted you guys to care more about me.”
When Li Xin heard this, she was so angry that she laughed. “How can we not care about you? We send you money every few days after a month because we’re afraid that you won’t be able to eat properly! If you wanted to see us and wrote us a letter, we would have come.”
Li Xin saw through Yu Yan’s excuse. “Do you see that? She’s still lying to us! She still refuses to tell the truth!”
Li Xin’s voice became louder and louder.
Seeing this, Yu Hai walked to Yu Yan’s side and said in a low voice, “Yu Yan, it’s not like you don’t know that your mother hates being deceived the most. Be good and tell your mother the truth. I will help you.”
Yu Yan knew that she couldn’t tell the truth. Otherwise, she might never get these treatments again.
Seeing that Li Xin didn’t believe her, she lowered her head and planned to remain silent to the end.
When Li Xin saw Yu Yan’s silent attitude, the anger in her heart intensified. She felt that Yu Yan was still unrepentant.
“Yu Yan, it’s only been a year since you came here, but look at what you’ve become! It’s bad enough that you lied to me in the letter, but you’re still continuing to lie to me! When I go back this time, I’ll find someone to transfer you back to the city. If you stay here, there’s no telling how bad you’ll become!”
Yu Yan actually wanted to return to the city. After Wu Jin became the village chief, she had no chance to slack off anymore. Now, Yu Yan couldn’t hold on anymore, but that was because she wanted to go back on her own accord, instead of being forced to go back by her adoptive mother.
Seeing Li Xin’s domineering attitude, Yu Yan missed Duan Mei even more. Thinking of how she said that she wanted to go back to see them in the letter, she immediately became emboldened and retorted, “I’m not going back. I want to stay in the village.”
Hearing this, Li Xin sneered. “Alright, you can stay if you want, but in the future, our family won’t send you a needle or a thread. In the future, you will earn your own food. If it’s not enough, don’t look for us.”
Yu Yan panicked and glared at Yu Hai. “Dad!”
Yu Hai couldn’t resist Yu Yan’s plea for help, so he smiled at his wife ingratiatingly. “Honey…”
After Li Xin gave him a side-eye, Yu Hai shut his mouth.
“Yu Yan, I’ll ask you one last time. Why did you lie to me and your father?”
Yu Yan had no choice but to compromise. “I just want you and Dad to care more about me and send more money over. I barely have any money left.”
Yu Yan knew that half-truths were the hardest to tell, so she put on a helpless look.
When Li Xin heard this, she frowned and asked, “I send you at least 10 yuan a month. Even if you eat meat twice a week, there’s still extra. Your father and I even sent you a lot of food and clothes. There’s not much that you need to buy. What did you spend all your money on?”
Yu Yan frowned, but kept silent.
Li Xin found a bench to sit on and said, “If I find out that you’re lying again, you’ll have to pack your things and come back with me immediately.”
Seeing that her adoptive mother was adamant, Yu Yan was at her wit’s end. If she returned like this and fell under her adoptive mother’s control, she wouldn’t be able to return to her biological parents’ house to reunite with them.
At this point, with her adoptive mother’s shrewdness, Yu Yan knew that if she didn’t tell the truth, she would suffer. She could only choose to go back or have money and food supply cut off.
Sigh, if her adoptive mother scolded her, so be it!
It was fine as long as her adoptive mother didn’t transfer her back immediately!
Yu Yan lowered her head and said meekly, “I used the money to buy food and distribute it to the intellectuals.”
