Mrs. Lu really didn't expect that she was such a good cook. Lanlan, on the other hand, never lifted a finger in the kitchen and never liked to go in.
At this moment, Lu Jinglan and Xu Rubao also came down.
Xu Rubao looked at Cheng Meilin in the kitchen. Why was she up so early?
Thinking about herself, she felt a little embarrassed that she had been sleeping until now.
Good morning, Auntie. Is there anything I can help you with?
"Ru Bao, you don't need to. Go outside and sit down. It will be ready soon."
Song Qinfang naturally saw Cheng Meilin as well, but she simply couldn't bring herself to like her, no matter how much she did.
Back then, she was pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl, and Cheng Hongzhi was away on a mission. During childbirth, she almost risked her life to successfully deliver both children.
She had just given birth and was so exhausted that she was barely clinging to life.
The nurse showed her the baby briefly, but she hadn't even held the baby herself. Then, Old Mrs. Cheng came in with her entourage and forcibly took her daughter away, simply because she had a red birthmark on her face.
Old Mrs. Cheng consulted a fortune teller who said that her daughter was born with a tough fate and was the nemesis of the Cheng family. He said that if she were alive, she would kill all the male members of the Cheng family.
At that time, Cheng Hongzhi was not there. She was weak after giving birth and didn't even have the strength to stand up. She watched helplessly as her daughter was taken away.
Only her six-year-old eldest son, Yiqian, chased after them, but in the end, he was just a child and couldn't overcome their numbers.
And so, Yiqian watched as his daughter was thrown into the moat.
After Cheng Hongzhi returned, he retrieved all the surveillance videos and confirmed that the child had indeed been thrown into the river.
How could such a small child survive in the river?
Later, she was unwilling to give up and searched the river for a month, but she couldn't even find the body.
From then on, she developed health problems, and her whole body would ache whenever the weather changed.
Add to that the pain of losing her daughter, which only she, as a mother, can truly understand.
As for Old Mrs. Cheng, she never called her "Mom" again after that, and didn't even want to talk to her.
However, less than a year after she lost her daughter, Old Mrs. Cheng brought Cheng Meilin back to the Cheng family.
The fortune teller said that Cheng Meilin's birth chart brought good fortune to the Cheng family, and Old Mrs. Cheng treated her like a treasure.
Song Qinfang never imagined that her beloved husband had a child with another woman.
At the time, Cheng Hongzhi also couldn't believe that he had suddenly gained a daughter.
However, in fact, Cheng Meilin had a paternity test done with him, and she was indeed his daughter.
Cheng Hongzhi then remembered that he had been drunk once, and that's probably how the child came to be.
Cheng Meilin's mother passed away, and Cheng Hongzhi has an obligation to support her.
At that time, Cheng Hongzhi was already the Chief of Staff of Beijing. For his future and for the sake of the Cheng family's reputation, they only cared about themselves and insisted on saying that Cheng Meilin was her twin daughter.
Before giving birth, Song Qinfang and Cheng Hongzhi were a loving couple.
Later, no matter what Cheng Hongzhi did, he couldn't heal her wounded heart.
If it weren't for her two sons, she probably would have divorced him long ago.
They only cared about the Cheng family and didn't care about her feelings at all. Placing Cheng Meilin under her nose was like planting a thorn in her heart, which they have been holding onto for twenty years.
How could she possibly like this thorn? Everything she enjoys now, it turns out, belongs to her unfortunate daughter.
