Chapter 259 The name is malicious
Zhu Xiulian's face turned pale, she staggered a few steps, and then fell to the ground uncontrollably.
"I...I don't understand what you are saying."
The way she looked at Huo Ning was almost as if she had seen a ghost.
She couldn't imagine why Mrs. Song's granddaughter could be so creepy.
The other party's granddaughter also looks down on others and is vicious all day long.
How come when it comes to my granddaughter, she is scarier than a ghost!
It was clearly the first day I met her, but she seemed to know me very well and knew everything!
Zhu Xiulian was shaking all over. She stumbled to her feet and turned around to run.
Huo Ning sneered, reached out and grabbed Zhu Xiulian's wrist, making her unable to move.
She tilted her head and blinked at Zhu Xiulian with an innocent and playful look.
"Why are you running? I haven't even finished my sentence."
She stared at Zhu Xiulian solemnly, as if she was looking at a dead person.
"Don't you love your daughter very much? Aren't you willing to die for her?"
"Why do you tremble with fear when I mention her?"
"Zhu Xiulian, do you feel cold when you sleep at night? Have you ever dreamed of your daughter crying and telling you that she is cold and in pain?"
The color on Zhu Xiulian's face faded away. She grabbed Huo Ning's hand tightly and screamed, "Stop talking!"
Huo Ning twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and pushed her hand away.
She deadpanned, "Aren't you going to tell me how your daughter died?"
Zhu Xiulian felt scared and couldn't speak!
You can't tell me!
Once she says it, she's done!
Huo Ning didn't care whether she was willing to say it or not and directly hit her with a truth talisman.
Zhu Xiulian was horrified. "You--what did you put on me?"
Huo Ning gave her a creepy smile and said, "Tell me how your daughter died."
Zhu Xiulian thought to herself, you are dreaming!
But once she opened her mouth, it was completely out of her control.
"She...she was killed by me..."
Zhu Xiulian's memory was forced to go back to two months ago...
"Mom, do we have to go back to grandma's house?"
The five-year-old girl, with her hair tied in a ponytail, carefully pulled the corner of Zhu Xiulian's clothes.
Zhu Xiulian pushed her hand away with a smile on her face, "Well, grandma missed us this time, so we have to go home with dad."
The little girl lowered her head, looking a little sad, "But...but grandma doesn't like me."
"Dad doesn't like me either..."
When she mentioned her father, her small body trembled and tears fell down, "Mom, I won't go back."
"Grandma gets angry when she sees me. When she gets angry, she'll... let Dad beat you. I don't want you to get beaten."
The little girl didn't know why her grandmother didn't like her, nor did she know why her father always beat her mother.
She wants to grow up quickly.
I want to have enough strength to protect my mother.
But the growth process is too slow.
Time passed day by day, but she was still just a child.
She is still young and doesn't understand what it means to live every day like a year. She just regrets that she doesn't have the strength to protect her mother.
Zhu Xiulian touched her head and said, "Zhao Di, be good and go back with mom."
"This time, not only grandma will like you, but dad will like you too."
"Um."
Lin Cheng, Zhu Xiulian's husband, nodded expressionlessly and gave Lin Zhaodi a reluctant look.
"Yes, you will go back with us this time."
"Be obedient and don't make trouble, or I will sell you to a trafficker right away!"
"You will be sold to the mountains, have your arms and legs broken, and be locked in a cellar every day, eating rotten rice!"
Lin Cheng looks ferocious and doesn't look like a good person.
When he frightened the child with such a stern face, Lin Zhaodi's face immediately turned pale.
Such a young child would probably cry uncontrollably if frightened like this.
But Lin Zhaodi's little body couldn't stop trembling, and she tightly grasped the corner of her mother's clothes.
Zhu Xiulian brushed her hand away again, frowning, "Why do you always grab my clothes? This dress is very expensive, costing about a hundred yuan, please don't damage it."
"Don't waste time, go change your shoes, we'll be leaving soon."
Lin Zhaodi knew that her mother was already a little angry, so she didn't dare to mention the fact that she would not go back.
She just nodded timidly, "I...I...I'll go pack two pieces of clothing."
She turned around and was about to carefully go into the room to pack her things, but Zhu Xiulian grabbed her wrist.
"What are you packing? Your skirts are all torn. I'll buy you new ones when we get back to grandma's house."
Zhaodi was flattered, "Really? Thank you, Mom!"
Her mother is so good to her and always buys her new clothes. She must grow up quickly and protect her mother well!
How could Lin Zhaodi know that the mother she wanted to protect even gave her a name full of malice.
After driving for more than four hours, I finally drove from the center of Yecheng to my hometown.
Lin Zhaodi had fallen asleep in the car.
This time she was given special treatment and was carried out of the car by her mother herself.
This time, grandma didn't scold her for losing money. Instead, she asked her lovingly if she was hungry or thirsty.
At dinner, grandma gave her a big steak and a big chicken drumstick.
"My dear granddaughter, are you hungry? Eat quickly. You are so thin. You need to eat more meat to replenish your body."
"Not bad." Lin Cheng nodded and gave her a large piece of meat. "Eat more."
Lin Zhaodi just felt that she was dreaming.
Grandma and Dad used to dislike her so much, but this time they actually picked up some meat for her to eat with their own hands!
In the past, I could only eat vegetables at the dinner table.
After dinner, Zhu Xiulian rarely asked Lin Zhaodi if she had finished her homework and whether she needed her help with tutoring.
Lin Zhaodi never dared to imagine doing homework with her mother.
Because mom is always busy.
Even when she is not busy, mom just wants to sleep for a while.
She curled up the corners of her mouth quietly, her heart couldn't stop jumping for joy.
I am so happy today.
By the time I finished my homework, it was almost late at night.
Zhu Xiulian said to Lin Zhaodi, "Zhaodi, I want to go talk to your grandmother Wang. You come with me."
Zhaodi nodded very obediently, "Okay."
At night in a remote mountain village, the road was particularly dark, with frogs croaking and cicadas chirping, and occasionally there were a few dogs barking.
When passing by a small river, Zhu Xiulian stopped.
Lin Zhaodi was puzzled and tilted her head to look at her mother, "Mom, why don't you leave?"
Under the dim moonlight, Zhu Xiulian gave Lin Zhaodi a sly smile.
"Zhao Di, you once said that when you grow up, you will definitely be filial to your mother."
"You don't have to wait until you grow up, you can be filial to me now!"
After saying that, she reached out her hand expressionlessly and pushed the little girl, who wanted to grow up quickly and protect her mother, into the river of sin as if she were pushing an animal.
Zhaodi has never learned to swim.
Her small body was soon swallowed up by the merciless river water.
Zhu Xiulian left only after she was sure that Lin Zhaodi was dead.
