"That's great! When Shaonan returns to the army, I will live with you and accompany you every day!"
"Okay! Dad is fine. But Xiaoxiao, are you really not going to forgive your adoptive parents? They just apologized to me here sincerely. Although I was hurt these days, they are not feeling well. They are under great mental pressure. Xiaoxiao, you should forgive others when you can in your life. Besides, they raised you! Even if they were greedy for money and they were infertile, they still raised you as their own daughter. If they were really greedy for money, they could send you to an orphanage after getting the money. This would be safer for them. Even if they can't have children, they can adopt one, but they still raised you. They have lived half of their lives, and you are their only support for the rest of their lives. They will go back to their hometown tomorrow. Dad is fine now, and they know they were wrong. Please forgive them. I don't want my daughter, Ming Yusong, to be such a narrow-minded person."
Although Ming Yusong persuaded his daughter for a whole night, Yu Xiao still didn't say a word of relenting. After returning home from the hospital, Yu Xiao remained silent. Kang Shaonan knew that she was upset and didn't bother her much. While Kang Shaonan was cooking dinner, Yu Xiao went to the study alone and took out her childhood photos and looked through them one by one. The memories of her childhood kept churning in her mind.
I remember when she was seven years old and in the first grade, she was playing with her deskmate, and her deskmate accidentally bumped her into the corner of the table next to her. There happened to be a nail head on the corner of the table, which pierced into the area next to her temple. She bled a lot on the spot, and the teacher was terrified and took her to the hospital for bandaging. It was just after school, and a classmate ran to tell her parents. When her mother Ren Zhiping heard about it, she was so scared that she almost fainted on the spot. You know, if the piercing was deeper in that area, it would be fatal. The next day, her mother made a scene in the principal's office. The parents of that classmate took some things to her home to apologize, but her mother Ren Zhiping refused to give up. She used to think that her mother was too much, but now when she thinks about it, she has a strange feeling.
When she was eleven, she wanted to learn how to ride a bicycle, but she fell down and had a bloody head on her first try, and she limped home. After her mother saw this, she didn’t dare let her ride a bicycle for a year…
There seem to be many more of the same things...
Scenes and events flashed before my eyes...
This was a confusing night.
After Ren Zhiping and Yu Jiahou came out of the hospital, thinking about their daughter's attitude towards her, Ren Zhiping kept crying, and cried several times when she was packing up at night. Yu Jiahou was also very upset, but thinking about what he had done, how could he have the face to beg for his daughter's forgiveness
"Oh... don't cry. Actually, think about it, Xiaoxiao doesn't owe us anything! Putting aside the twenty years of raising us, she has already repaid us enough since the day she married into the Kang family. We were greedy for money more than twenty years ago, but more than twenty years later, we still married her off for two million. Although Xiaoxiao and Shaonan are in a good relationship now, we can't think like that. If she really was our biological daughter, maybe we wouldn't exchange our daughter for the safety of the company! So, Xiaoxiao really doesn't owe us anything! Oh..." After experiencing so many things during this period of time, Yu Jiahou has completely let it go. Some things are not yours just because you possess them.
Although Ren Zhiping could understand her husband's words, how could she let go of her feelings? She couldn't help crying when she thought about her daughter, whom she had raised with great effort, no longer refusing to recognize her. However, things had come to this point. No matter how sad she was, the big mistake had been made. Even if she wanted to save the relationship, she was powerless.
The next morning, the two of them didn't even make breakfast. They were no longer in the mood. After packing all their things and reluctantly looking at the room, they dragged their suitcases downstairs and put them in the taxi. They got in one by one, and the car started slowly, ready to leave.
A military green SUV drove over quickly and braked suddenly in front of the taxi. Ren Zhiping and Yu Jiahou looked at Yu Xiao excitedly as she got out of the passenger seat of the SUV. They quickly opened the door and got out, all looking at their daughter nervously.
“Xiaoxiao…” Ren Zhiping looked at her daughter coming towards her and tears instantly fell.
Yu Xiao walked up to her mother and watched her tears continue to fall. She raised her hand to wipe the tears from her mother's eyes with some distress, and then smiled slightly: "Mom, Dad, where are you going? Are you going to give up on me? Do you want your grandchild to be born without seeing his grandparents?"
“Xiaoxiao…” After hearing her daughter’s words, Ren Zhiping cried and hugged her daughter.
Yu Jiahou, who was standing at the side, also had tears in his eyes. He looked at his daughter apologetically and said, "Xiaoxiao, it's your parents who are sorry for you..."
Yu Xiao smiled and said, "Since you have let me down, you can't leave. My tea shop needs help, and you have to help me take care of your grandson after he is born, right? So neither of you can leave, and don't bother to leave me behind!"
"Xiaoxiao..." When Ren Zhiping heard her daughter's words, her daughter cried even harder: "Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry..."
"Mom, your daughter is pregnant with twins. I ran here without even having breakfast. I'm starving!" Yu Xiao patted her mother's back coquettishly.
“Mom will do it for you… Mom will do it for you…” Ren Zhiping wiped her tears and smiled at her daughter.
"Dad, Mom, let's go upstairs first! Kang Shaonan, the luggage is yours now!" Yu Xiao took his parents' arms and walked upstairs.
The day after reconciling with her parents, Yu Xiao officially opened the tea shop. At Yu Xiao's insistence, Kang Shaonan stayed with her at home for another week, then said goodbye to his family and returned to the army. However, this time, he really accepted the task assigned by Division Commander Zuo and went to the most backward regiment in the military region as the head of the regiment.
Because she was not liked by her mother-in-law Liu Xiaoyun, after Kang Shaonan left, Yu Xiao only occasionally went back to the Kang family to see Grandpa Kang or to see pregnant Ai Qi. Her father's health gradually improved, and he moved back to his old villa from the hospital. After discussing with her adoptive parents, Yu Xiao moved in with her father. She had never lived with her father since she was born, and now she has made up for the regrets of the past.
Ren Zhiping and Yu Jiahou have changed a lot since Ming Yusong's accident and Yu Xiao forgave them for their past actions. They take care of the tea shop wholeheartedly and learn tea art from Yu Xiao when they have time, and they can identify the types of tea. Their life is more hopeful than before.
Mingyao has not found a suitable cornea for her eyes, and the surgery to restore her sight has been delayed again and again. But Shen Yimo never gave up his confidence. He believed that as long as he persisted, his wife's eyes would be restored one day. Because of Kong Yumeng's insistence, Mingyao has never set foot in the Shen family villa since she registered her marriage with Shen Yimo. However, Shen Guanting privately let his son take Mingyao to the hotel for dinner several times. He almost watched Mingyao grow up, so he still has certain feelings for Mingyao. He comforted Mingyao that his wife Kong Yumeng would definitely come to her senses one day.
Although her love with Shen Yimo was opposed by her mother-in-law, the actions of her father-in-law Shen Guanting still warmed Mingyao's heart. She believed that as long as she worked hard, her mother-in-law would accept her one day.
Because Shen Yimo was busy with work, it was impossible for him to take care of his wife everywhere. Fortunately, Yu Xiao had a tea shop. Whenever Shen Yimo was busy, he would send his wife to the tea shop or to Ming Yusong's villa first. In this way, he could feel at ease, and Yu Xiao and his father-in-law would also have company.
Ai Qi gave birth to two identical daughters one month after Kang Shaonan went to the army. Kang Shaobei was so happy that he couldn't even find the north. Yu Xiao envied Kang Shaobei and Ai Qi, and was looking forward to the child in her belly. But sometimes she felt a little lonely when she thought about her husband Kang Shaonan not being around when she gave birth. But she knew very well that since she chose to be a military wife, she had no choice.
Kang Shaoxi has not been seen since she was tricked by Fu Zihao to the United States. Liu Xiaoyun has been depressed because of her daughter's disappearance and often stays in her room. However, after Ai Qi gave birth, there were suddenly two more children in the family. Seeing two identical granddaughters gradually diverted her attention. Every day around the two lovely granddaughters, her mood became better and better.
Considering that Yu Xiao was pregnant with twins, since she was six months old, at the insistence of Shen Yimo and Ming Yusong, Yu Xiao has been staying in her father's villa, usually accompanied by her sister. Although she sometimes misses Kang Shaonan involuntarily, having relatives around her somewhat alleviates her homesickness. Of course, Kang Shaonan often calls her after work.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Xiao was almost ten months pregnant, and the due date was only a few days away. Fearing that Yu Xiao might have safety problems, Shen Yimo booked a delivery room for her in the hospital and asked her to go directly to the hospital to give birth. Yu Xiao couldn't get away from everyone, so she had to stay in the room temporarily.
On the morning of the second day after Yu Xiao was admitted to the hospital, when she got up to go to the bathroom, she suddenly felt severe pain in her stomach. Fortunately, her adoptive mother Ren Zhiping was with her and she immediately called the doctor. After a look, she found out that Yu Xiao's amniotic fluid had broken. In a flurry, Yu Xiao was pushed into the delivery room. Shen Yimo was the first to rush to the hospital. When the doctor asked him to sign the operation form, he couldn't help but look at the end of the corridor. Kang Shaonan's phone was not connected. After a little hesitation, he picked up the pen and quickly signed his name on it. (To be continued)
