Quiet, dead quiet.
Rong Jingxi completely understood what Grandma Rong meant, and he also knew that he was powerless to refute it. What's more, he felt like he was struck by lightning and his mood and emotional state were very bad.
He would not even doubt the truthfulness of what Grandma Rong said, because he knew it must be true.
a while
He let out a self-deprecating yet sad laugh...
"Who are you doing this to? You reap what you sow. This is all your own fault. You deserve what you are suffering now. If it weren't for your indifference to Guaibao this time, I would have been happy to let you be a confused fool for the rest of your life."
“Hahaha, hahaha… So, Mom, are you making me a sober fool now?”
"Does it make any difference? Nothing can be changed anyway. You've already given up your own flesh and blood for your happy family. How come you suddenly hear something you can't bear?
I just remembered my only child in this life. How could such a good thing happen? From the moment you gave her to me, and then took her back to your own side for three years, the father-daughter relationship between you was severed when you returned her for the second time."
"Guaibao, she is just my granddaughter, the flesh and blood of the Rong family. She has nothing to do with you."
"Mom, Mom, I'm not a saint, it's impossible for me not to make mistakes. You can't just sentence me to death. I'm also a victim because I can't have children anymore. After all, Xiao Qing is my flesh and blood. You also said that she is my only child, so everything I have will belong to her. Are you just..."
"Oh, does it hurt to say this? Do you feel guilty? I raised her with nothing but food and clothing. What have you given me?
With a monthly living allowance of 30 yuan, her mother's income started from 80 yuan, 100 yuan, 150 yuan, 200 yuan... to 1,000 yuan per month now. Don't you understand what the situation in Hong Kong and inland areas has been like over the years?
You know better than me how difficult it was for her to deliver the money and things regardless of weather, not to mention all the popular seasonal items in Qiangang City. She never missed a thing."
"How can I, a grown man, be as attentive as a woman? Besides, she's her only child, so she must love him dearly!"
"I really wish you weren't my biological child. My biological mother? And another child? You're still my biological father. Who said she's the only child? She has a pair of children, one ten years old and the other eight!
Even though the brother and sister have never met each other since they were young, they still gave their sister all the pocket money they had grown up with!"
"My biological mother was even more generous: a full million, not to mention the other dowry - real estate and shops in Kyoto. Even my stepfather gave 188,000. I won't even mention the others, but what about your biological father?"
Rong Jingxi was truly mortified by what he had said. If only there was a rat hole, he would have crawled into it. Apart from anything else, his stepfather, whom he had never met, gave his daughter 188,000 yuan?!
Comparing it this way, his mother was right to scold him. His biological father was really a bad person. Rong Jingxi thought for a moment:
"Mom, I'm your biological father after all. Just let Big Brother take care of what you said. I'm going to give a lot of dowry. I've saved about two million over the years. I'll give it all to Xiao Qing. What else do you think I should prepare?"
Grandma Rong was a little surprised when she heard the figure of more than two million. As her second son, her small treasury was quite generous, and giving it all to Rong Qing was only natural.
Is it a good deal for the mother and her two daughters? It's ridiculous for the daughter-in-law. She has been married for more than ten years and has never seen her husband, and she has no plan to see him.
She refused to acknowledge it! If this had happened decades ago, how could she be considered a daughter-in-law without recognition?
Grandma Rong's answer was quite straightforward:
"Prepare enough money! As for the rest, I'll let your eldest brother tell you. But I still have to make it clear, if you give it to me, I'll be a good kid. And don't let those three people in your family cause any trouble later.
If it weren't for the three of them who wronged my little darling, she would have only stayed for three years before returning. The key is that for most of those three years, she was taken in and raised by her uncles, aunts, and other relatives."
"Don't worry, as his biological father, I have indeed treated him badly. This time the dowry will definitely not be less, Mom." The phone was silent for a long time before Rong Jingxi's hoarse and choked voice came again:
"Mom, I, I want a divorce."
Grandma Rong's attitude and tone remained very calm:
"You are not a child anymore, think carefully about your own affairs and make your own decisions. As long as you don't regret it, that's fine!
But if you want a divorce, then you're giving up the happy life you've built with your own daughter, and in the end, you're going to end up like this. What did you gain by doing that?"
"Yeah, what do I want?" Rong Jingxi's voice sounded a little sad.
"Maybe I want you to be a bad person, so that you can see that you are a cold-hearted and selfish person!"
"My dear mother, my dear mother, your son is really suffering right now. It has never been this bad before. Can you please, just, just stop talking about me today?"
"Haha, you can't even talk about what you did. You're in your thirties or forties, and now I realize you're a fragile person. You're dazzled by the world, and you've swallowed your conscience when you gained power!
Look at your eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother. Have they achieved less than you? How do they balance their careers and family lives? What is their attitude towards their own children?
Ever since you gave me your sweetheart, have you and your siblings remained as close as before?"
These words hit Rong Jingxi's head like a slap in the face. All the scenes from the past came to his mind. Yes, it seemed that their attitude towards him really changed from then on!
Especially the second time he sent Rong Qing back to his hometown, it seemed that except for the inevitable encounters, they had never met privately again, and they had never come to visit his home again?
