The Widow 'Misses' Her Villainous Late Husband

The next morning, Yu Duo dragged her body that was about to eat itself from hunger downstairs. Aunty Lian had made a table full of food, and kept on urging Yu Duo to eat more.

“Look at yourself, Madam. You had lost so much weight already. Eat some more.... Just a little more. You barely ate anything. Eat some more, I’ll go get you another bowl of porridge.”

While Yu Duo was still pretending that she had no appetite, she was eating at record speed. She took the opportunity when Aunty Lian turned around to get her more porridge to shove a steamed dumpling into her mouth and chewed and swallowed it in no time.

Fu Sinian sat on the other side and watched this woman who had everyone fooled.

After breakfast, Yu Duo was finally relieved of her hunger. She placed some incense in front of Fu Sinian’s portrait and was about to head toward his gravesite when an unwelcome guest arrived.

Here’s the backstory on the unwelcome guest.

Fu Sinian had a sad childhood. His parents passed away when he was still a child, so he went to live with his uncle. His uncle was alright to him. He didn’t scold him all the time, but always rolls his eyes at him behind his back. After all, it was one more mouth to feed.

After Fu Sinian became successful, to repay his uncle for raising him, he paid his uncle an annual tribute of roughly 5 million a year.

Now that this uncle was paying her a visit after Fu Sinian’s death, Yu Duo could easily guess the purpose of his visit.

The leecher was here.

Aunty Lian was on guard. She sent a text message to Ah Qi, then she said to Yu Duo, “Madam, why don’t you retire to the study and get some rest? I can take care of this.”

Yu Duo smiled, “Don’t worry, Aunty Lian. Sinian was raised by this uncle. Now that Sinian was gone, I am sure he’s just here to pay Sinian a visit. He couldn’t possibly be here to leech off of us.

The uncle just stepped in the door and heard the last part. The expression froze on his face for a quick second, but he recovered immediately and played his elder’s card, “What leecher? What nonsense are you talking about!”

Yu Duo played her submissive card and said, “I apologize, uncle. I didn’t mean anything by that, please have a seat!”

Uncle finally harrumphed and walked inside, followed by a woman.

Yu Duo just pretended that she hadn’t noticed her.

Uncle first lit incense for Fu Sinian and gave a very touching speech in front of Fu Sinian’s portrait before the woman next to him finally talked him into taking a seat. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

“Yu Duo, I know that in the three years that you and Sinian had been married, you have always had a loving relationship. Now that Sinian was gone, you were the one that’s the most upset about it. I know this is a bad timing but, for the sake of Sinian, I must tell you something. I apologize in advance. I simply can’t keep this to myself.”

“Uncle, that’s alright. Do share what you have in mind.”

Uncle nodded and pointed at the woman next to him, “Her name is Ah Yu. She and Sinian grew up together, but were separated later on for one reason or another ...” The Uncle paused, then said, “She’s pregnant, with Sinian’s child.”

Yu Duo looked at the woman standing next Uncle. With her eyes widened, she exclaimed, “Pregnant? That’s impossible!”

Uncle appeared to be very understanding, “Uncle knows that it’s a hard pill to swallow, but Sinian.... He shouldn’t have! But this is true, Ah Yu is three months’ pregnant. Duoduo, Ah Yu is pregnant with Sinian’s only child. You can’t let Sinian go without leaving a child behind, right?”

Ah Yu, standing to one side, couldn’t possibly look more pitiful, “Miss Yu, I know it was wrong of me. I am not asking for my relation with Sinian to be made official, but the child in innocent. All I want is for the child to be able to refer to Sinian as ‘father’ after he is born. If you would allow that, I will do anything that you ask of me!”

Ah Yu became progressively more emotional as she talked and was about to kneel down in front of Yu Duo.

Yu Duo was stunned for a second, but moved out of her way.

“Don’t, you are pregnant. Be careful of the child.”

Uncle smiled with relieved, “Good girl. I know you’d understand. So you agree to admitting this is Sinian’s child?”

Yu Duo looked at Uncle and seemingly struggling to find the right words, “Uncle, of course I want Sinian to have a child, but... Sinian... is infertile.”

Standing next to them, the “infertile” spirit of Fu Sinian couldn’t help but want to ask, “????”𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ
