Before the divorce.
Jiang Tong's scumbag ex-husband placed three curses on her.
One, after leaving him, she would definitely live a miserable life and couldn't survive without h...
The gifts Zhou Yuansheng mentioned were things other than jewelry. Jiang Tong had no choice but to accept them since she couldn't refuse. As for Zhou Yuansheng's concern that if his parents needed to see her again, she could get the jewelry from him.
Jiang Tong dared not accept any valuable items; she was already uneasy about these gifts alone, which consisted of precious medicinal herbs and luxury goods.
We really can't use it all.
She barely used the gifts Zhou Yuansheng gave her last time, let alone so many more today.
Zhou Yuansheng carried the gifts and escorted the mother and daughter upstairs. He put the gifts at the door and left without going in himself. He told them to get some rest and then left.
Jiang Tong also breathed a sigh of relief.
Returning to this cozy little home brings a sense of inexplicable relaxation. This place, which is entirely her own, gives her a great feeling of security, and softens her heart.
She first carried the child to the bathroom and gently gave her a quick bath before putting Hanhan to sleep, and then took care of her own washing up.
After taking a shower, she can simply throw her clothes into the washing machine to wash them. With smart home products replacing household chores, her life has become much easier.
It also frees up time for skincare.
I never knew it was so great to earn and spend my own money. Although I was exhausted from rushing to finish my drawings recently, the money I earned, amounting to several thousand or even ten thousand, was really satisfying.
Jiang Tong took a moment to check Weibo, and then chatted with the client who commissioned her for a few minutes about work. She was now a freelancer, so her time was easy to manage. She squeezed out time to help Zhou Yuansheng tonight, so she would have to work overtime tomorrow to finish the manuscript.
As for the gifts, she put them back in their place after resting for a while. It has to be said that money can indeed buy good things, such as these expensive items, the quality of which is truly impeccable, even the fruit.
Jiang Tong had eaten the grapes that Uncle He had given her, which cost several hundred yuan per kilogram, and the taste was indeed excellent.
She only occasionally consumes these nourishing medicinal herbs, and her complexion has completely recovered.
However, she is careful not to give Hanhan any of these foods, so as not to cause the child to develop prematurely due to overnutrition. As a mother, she is indeed very responsible.
Such a busy day has come to an end.
Jiang Tong also lay on the bed, rolled around a few times, stretched, and relaxed her whole body. She couldn't help but feel happy and squinted her eyes. Except for the occasional feeling of annoyance when she thought about her previous marriage, she really felt that the divorce was a good thing.
He regained his freedom.
It was so much fun.
Jiang Tong squinted and quickly closed her eyes, falling into a deep sleep.
The next morning.
Jiang Tong had just finished making breakfast when her parents called.
It is said that Xu Huaiyuan will give Peipei custody.
Unable to find Jiang Tong, Wang Chungui and Xu Huaiyuan could only turn to Jiang Tong's parents.
They even said they'd meet tomorrow afternoon.
Jiang Tong was immediately jolted awake and she quickly agreed in a deep voice.
Her mother said worriedly, "Can't you raise two children by yourself? If you have two children to raise, it will be difficult for them to get married in the future."
Jiang Tong was focused on Pei Pei and didn't have time to argue with her stubborn mother. She simply comforted her mother for a couple of minutes and then hung up the phone.
Because she really doesn't want to remarry now.
Since it involves Peipei, we also need to inform Hanhan about this situation.
After Hanhan finished eating, Jiang Tong combed the child's hair while telling her about it, "So that's the situation. Mommy promises Peipei won't hurt you, okay?"
Hearing this, Hanhan just frowned, looking quite mature. She was puzzled and asked in her childish voice, "Why don't you want Peipei anymore? Don't Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad love her the most? Why don't you want her?"
Jiang Tong felt a pang of sadness. The Xu family's love was all fake. They could abandon her when their own interests were involved. She bent down and kissed Hanhan's forehead. "It's okay. Mommy's love for you is unbreakable."
Hanhan also got up and hugged Jiang Tong, kissed her face, and then said obediently, "Hanhan knows that the person Hanhan loves most in the world is Mommy."
She said she trusts her mother the most, so no matter what her mother does, she will stand by her side.
Jiang Tong felt a pang of sadness. Hanhan was the most sensible of them all. She hugged her daughter tightly and said, "Thank you, baby."
Two days later.
Jiang Tong originally wanted to send Hanhan to her godmother's place, but unexpectedly Zhou Jiaqi came to play with Hanhan. Zhou Yuansheng saw her uneasy expression and asked her a few questions. After learning that she was going to pick up another twin daughter, he asked her if she needed any help.
He was worried that she wouldn't be able to regain custody.
Jiang Tong laughed self-deprecatingly, "It was my ex-husband who gave up custody of her."
That's ridiculous.
She and Xu Huaiyuan ended up like this, and the man who once loved her deeply gave up his most beloved youngest daughter for his new wife.
Including her former mother-in-law.
Jiang Tong thought Wang Chungui would have some genuine feelings for Peipei, but she never expected that when it came to choosing between her and her new daughter-in-law, she would still abandon Peipei.
So-called exclusive favor is nothing more than this.
Zhou Yuansheng felt a little uncomfortable looking at her broken eyes. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he didn't like seeing her sad. All he could say was, "If you need anything, just ask. I'll definitely help you."
Jiang Tong snapped out of her reverie, looked at the man's earnest gaze, and nodded, "Thank you."
Zhou Jiaqi, unaware of the adults' questions, was happily talking to Hanhan, as he was inviting her to the amusement park.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuansheng said that he could take Hanhan out for a trip.
Jiang Tong was still somewhat hesitant.
Hanhan spoke up herself, "Mommy, I want to go play with Zhou Jiaqi and Uncle Zhou."
Jiang Tong immediately agreed.
She filled both children's cups with her homemade herbal tea soup, which wasn't bitter and was suitable for children to drink.
Seeing that there was still some leftover herbal tea, she happened to have a lot of plastic containers on hand to store homemade milk tea and desserts. She often made food to give to friends, so she found a long cylindrical plastic container and filled it with the remaining herbal tea.
Finally, he handed the children's water bottles to the two kids, and then handed the extra bottle to Zhou Yuansheng, saying, "It's hot, so drink more herbal tea. I heard you clear your throat occasionally last time, and this is good for your throat. You can drink more of it."
After telling him, Jiang Tong still worriedly reminded the two children to be careful, "Hanhan, stay close to Uncle Zhou, okay? Qiqi, don't always argue with your daddy. Don't run around outside. You two have to be good."
As Zhou Yuansheng listened to Jiang Tong's patient instructions, he felt sorry for her being so concerned. However, what was surprising was that his little brat was exceptionally obedient to her.
That's amazing.
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
Jiang Tong concluded by saying that even though she was very anxious and uneasy, she did not let her emotions affect anyone else; she was truly an overly gentle person.
No wonder she was the one who got hurt.
Zhou Yuansheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of them."
Jiang Tong smiled too.
After watching the three of them leave, Zhou Yuansheng once again demonstrated his superhuman strength, carrying one of them on each side as they set off. His stamina was truly impressive.
