Chapter 43 Jian Yunsang's Parents
"Is this... my room?"
Chao Chao opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.
The room is very big, and the overall color is light yellow, which looks very cozy and warm. There is a big princess bed in the room, and there are plush toys taller than Chao Chao on the bed. There is also a desk, a small sofa, and a bookcase next to the bed.
In addition to these regular arrangements, the most eye-catching are the swings and slides not far away.
Yes, Chao Chao never thought that a swing could be placed in the sleeping room.
There was also a slide, the kind she had seen in the hospital, no, it was even prettier than the one in the hospital, and there were a lot of balls where she slid down. There was a small shed next to it, and grandma said it was a tent. Chao Chao didn't quite understand why there was a tent in the room, and this tent was so strange, it was different from the tent she had seen in Shangliu Village that was only supported by a piece of cloth.
The room was so big that she was a little hesitant to step into it. She asked again, "Is this really my room?"
"Of course, this is yours alone. See that swing? We used to have a swing in the yard. You said it was too cold in the winter, so your grandfather installed one in your room that day. You loved it so much that you would sit on it for an hour or two every day before getting down."
Unfortunately, Chaochao disappeared not long after the installation.
After that, every time she and He's father saw the swing, they felt as if their hearts were being cut by a knife.
"Come on, grandma will take you out to play."
Chao Chao felt a little curious and expectant. She sat on the swing carefully and swayed slightly twice.
Song Zhen took her to play on the slide again. Chao Chao was a little hesitant, but also very happy. After sliding twice, she looked up and saw the three adults in the room looking at her with smiles on their faces.
She immediately became a little nervous and felt uncomfortable playing any further.
Song Zhen immediately urged He Nanzhou and Jian Yunsang, "Don't just stand there and watch. Go and do your own things."
The latter looked at each other and walked to the side. They didn't go out, but just went to the cloakroom and talked with their backs to Chao Chao. Chao Chao didn't feel safe yet, so they didn't dare to leave Chao Chao's sight.
Sure enough, when Chaochao saw that they didn't leave, she stopped in her tracks and breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Zhen saw it and couldn't help but touch her head with heartache.
Chao Chao raised his head along her hand, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked in a low voice, "Grandma, can I ask you a question?"
"Ask, of course you can ask, what does Chao Chao want to know?"
"That's right, that's right..." Chao Chao hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Why did that person just now say that my mother...my father doesn't love her and my mother doesn't care about her? Doesn't my mother have a father and a mother?"
But, my mother clearly said that she has grandparents.
Wang Pingqiu said too much and too fast before, and Chao Chao didn’t digest it at the time. Only now did she realize that Yunsang she mentioned was her mother’s name.
She has a father and a mother now, but what if her mother doesn't have one? Life without parents is what Chao Chao has experienced, and it would be very hard. She doesn't want her mother to be sad, and she would feel very distressed.
Song Zhen was stunned. She didn't expect Chao Chao to have taken Wang Pingqiu's words to heart.
She suddenly felt a little annoyed. She shouldn't have let Wang Pingqiu in before. It would have been fine if she had said all those nonsense, but she also made Chaochao worry.
She sighed slightly and smiled, "Of course your mother has a father and a mother too."
"Then why did that person say that his father didn't love him and his mother didn't care about him?"
"Because your grandparents divorced when your mom was young." A voice came from behind. Chao Chao turned around suddenly and found that Jian Yunsang had been standing behind her at some point and had obviously heard their conversation.
Chaochao felt a little uneasy. She didn't mean to ask about these things.
"Mom, let me do it." Jian Yunsang took Chaochao over, and the mother and daughter sat on the sofa and talked.
Song Zhen walked to He Nanzhou's side, sighed softly, and then seemed to have thought of something and asked him, "Have you told your father about Chao Chao's return?"
"I called him, but Dad was in a meeting and didn't answer. I told Secretary Chen to come back after Dad finished the meeting if there was nothing important to do in the afternoon."
Song Zhen said, "Even if you have something important to do, you must hurry back. Nothing is more important than Chao Chao."
He Nanzhou smiled and said nothing more.
The two looked at the mother and daughter in the room. Jian Yunsang was quietly explaining his parents' relationship to Chao Chao, "Divorce means that both parties dissolve their marriage and are no longer husband and wife. However, although they are divorced, it's not that mom doesn't love her anymore. They just don't live together anymore. Nothing else has changed. They still love mom very much. They paid half of the money to buy the house we lived in two days ago."
Of course there are changes, but for Jian Yunsang, they are not very painful.
Unlike the harmonious family atmosphere of the He family, Jian Yunsang's parents divorced when she was in elementary school because of their incompatibility in personality. Although they often quarreled during their marriage, they divorced peacefully.
Jian Yunsang followed her father. Two years later, her mother got married and then moved to another place because of her husband's work transfer.
A year later, her father also got married, and they soon had another daughter.
At that time, Jian Yunsang was in the fifth grade, and she understood everything she should understand. Her father was actually very good to her, giving her everything she should have, and she had no worries about food and drink, and he always cared about her studies and making friends.
The aunt treated her well, and even after she had a daughter, she never treated her badly. Her room was still the one with a large south-facing balcony, and there were always her favorite dishes on the table. She didn't have to worry about her school supplies, as they were all prepared. She would give her more clothes when it was cold, and she would never give less pocket money. She would even remind her father that girls have privacy when they grow up, and asked him to knock on the door before entering.
Her mother saved the child support she received every month and never asked about it.
But it is still different from a biological mother and daughter. Jian Yunsang and her have always maintained a polite and cordial relationship, and there is a line between them that will not be crossed.
But she was still young, and she always felt uncomfortable when she saw the warm scene of their family of three together.
So when she was in junior high school, she chose boarding school.
It was the same in high school. She would only go back home during the holidays. She became independent very early.
When she was in college, she was admitted to Jiangcheng and rarely went back home even during holidays.
Every time she had a holiday, her father called her, but she refused to go home by making the excuse that she had to work.
It was also at that time that she discovered that she had a talent for making money.
