"Mom, are you still blaming me? I know I was wrong..." Yun Yao's tears came suddenly and she was about to cry, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"You are wrong."

Huang Zhiqiu interrupted her performance with a cold voice, "Xiaoyao, I can understand that you want to see your biological parents, but why didn't you tell me first? If you want to come back and recognize your biological parents, would I stop you?

It's fine if you don't believe me, but why did you steal your uncle's money? You knew that most of the money was borrowed, but you didn't leave a penny for your uncle. Haven't your uncle's family been good to you since you were a child? Are you so cruel and don't care about their lives? When you were a child, you were weak and sickly. It was your uncle who went back and forth 40 miles on the mountain road every day, carrying you to the town for injections, and blisters formed on the soles of his feet. Your aunt went to the mountains to dig herbs and encountered a poisonous snake, and she almost lost her life. I think they must regret risking their lives to save you.

I was the one who picked you up by mistake. If you have any grievances, you can come to me. I also believe that I have never treated you unfairly in the past 18 years, but why did you bully Momo?

She didn't run to your Yun family on her own. She was brought back by your parents. Instead of blaming them, you put all the blame on Momo.

As the saying goes, don’t judge a person by his appearance, judge him by his appearance. Momo is my biological daughter. If you have any gratitude and respect for me as your adoptive mother, you shouldn’t be so hostile to her.”

Huang Zhiqiu stuffed the envelope into Yun Yao's hand and said, "Xiaoyao, go back. I made a mistake in taking you, but I also raised you. Let's make up for my mistakes. Don't come to see me again, and don't go back to Liu'an Town. Your grandparents and your uncle's family probably don't want to see you."

Yun Yao stared at Huang Zhiqiu blankly, her eyes full of shock and disbelief.

"Mom, what do you mean by this? Are you going to sever the mother-daughter relationship with me!?"

Huang Zhiqiu thought for a moment and said, "I guess so. Momo was driven out of the Yun family by you, and she also severed her relationship with your biological parents. I think they should also hope that you will cut off contact with the Huang family. This can be regarded as correcting the wrongs."

After saying that, Huang Zhiqiu turned his head to look at Yun Mo who was watching the show on the side, and his tone was several times gentler than when he was lecturing Yun Yao.

"Didn't you say you were going to buy breakfast? What are you still standing there for?"

Of course I’m afraid that you will be bewitched by Yun Yao’s sweet words!

Yun Mo decided to go all out, so she put her arm around Huang Zhiqiu and said, "Mom, let's go together. The breakfast shops here have much more variety than those in Liu'an Town. Go pick out a few that you like."

"I'm not picky about food. I'll eat whatever you buy."

"No, that won't do. It's a rare opportunity for you to come here, so I will definitely make sure you eat and drink well..."

Staring at the intimate backs of the mother and daughter, Yun Yao gritted her teeth in anger.

Although Yun Mo didn't have eyes behind her back, she could still feel Yun Yao's venomous gaze.

Glancing at Dabai and Erbai who were swaggering at her feet, her mind moved slightly.

“Ah! Get out of here!!”

"Quack! Quack, quack!"

"quack!"

Go ahead and peck her to death!

Okay!

Looking at Yun Yao who was being chased by Dabai and Erbai, Yun Mo bent over with laughter.

After driving Yun Yao out of the alley where the courtyard was located, Dabai and Erbai led their goose cubs, which had grown into geese, and swaggered back to Yun Mo like victorious generals.

Yun Mo happily stroked the head of each goose one by one, "Well done, I'll give you some extra food later!"

“Quack?”

Dried fish? Yun Mo: "No problem."

"quack!"

Watching the interaction between the man and the goose, Huang Zhiqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You must have read so much that your brain has become stupid. Can it understand what you are saying?"

"Of course they can. Otherwise, why do you think they would chase Yun Yao?"

"It's not normal for geese to chase people. When you first came back to the Huang family, they also chased you. Have you forgotten?"

Yun Mo thought about it carefully and realized it was true.

"Quack, quack, quack."

Master, we were wrong.

Dabai and Erbai rubbed her feet with their goose heads in a flattering manner, and stared at her with their gold-rimmed eyes, trying their best to please her.

Even Huang Zhiqiu was amazed by this scene, thinking that these two geese might have become spirits.

Yun Mo took Huang Zhiqiu's arm and continued to stroll around the courtyard, saying softly, "Mom, it's great to have you. A child with a mother is a treasure. I feel like I'm your little baby now. I'm so, so happy."

Huang Zhiqiu sighed softly, "I met your adoptive mother yesterday. Seeing her unreasonable behavior, I wondered if she treated you the same way when you were in the Yun family.

Momo, I owe you for not being able to support you when you were alone and helpless. You have grown up and have your own ideas. I can't help you, but I will never hurt your heart for outsiders. "

"Mom, although I like the way you rejected Yun Yao, I can also understand the mother-daughter relationship between you and her. 18 years is half of your life, and it is also the best time of your life. It is normal to be reluctant to let go. I can tolerate you continuing to recognize her, as long as you don't treat her better than I treat me."

"I didn't expect you to be so understanding. Xiaoyao shouldn't have gone far. I think I can catch up with her if I go after her now."

Yun Mo was very depressed. "You don't have to be so impatient, right?"

Huang Zhiqiu couldn't help laughing. "Look at your mouth, you can hang a pot of oil on it. Okay, I'm just kidding. Once the words are spoken, they can be spilled. Now that I have made up my mind, I will not change it."

Yun Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help asking, "Then you won't be reluctant to let go?"

"Of course I am reluctant to throw away a piece of clothing. I can't bear to throw it away even if I wear it for several years, let alone the child I raised. But Momo, don't be too greedy. It's impossible for a person to have everything, and it's impossible for him to have nothing.

Xiaoyao has returned to her biological family, where she has no worries about food and clothing, and is surrounded by family love. It doesn't matter whether I am with her or not, but you are different. You only have me as your biological mother. If I don't favor you a little, you will be very sad. "

Preference is the highest level of loving someone.

She was unlucky to be dealt a bad hand, but extremely lucky to meet the right person along the way.

Friendship, love, and family, without exception.

Yun Mo was contented by being coaxed by her own mother, while Yun Yao on the other hand was so angry that her lungs were about to explode.

She was so eager to find Huang Zhiqiu, not only because she wanted to ease the relationship with Huang Zhiqiu, so that she could benefit from it when Huang Zhiqiu's man came to her in the future, but also because she wanted to find out the identity of Mrs. Yuan's eldest sister-in-law through Huang Zhiqiu.

She has hired a private detective to conduct a thorough background check on the Yuan family.

To her surprise, the Yuan family’s ancestral home was actually in Anshi.

In the Yuan family, there were three daughters and two sons by the time of Mrs. Yuan.

The eldest son passed away due to illness a few years ago, and now the only one left in the Yuan family is the youngest son, Yuan Wei, who is also Mrs. Yuan’s husband.

Yuan Wei has three older sisters. The second and third sisters are married in Anshi. The eldest sister, Yuan Jia, is only known to have gone to the capital. She has a man with a very powerful background, but the details of her marriage and children are unknown, which is very mysterious.
