Mo Bao'er nodded, then shook her head: "Even if she's not my friend, but just an ordinary eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, I would still feel sorry for her if she encountered something like this. What's more, I know Jiao Jiao, and we've gotten along quite well these past few days. It's really heartbreaking and regrettable that she encountered something like this."
Xiao Yue looked at her daughter with approval: "Your idea is indeed good. In this matter, it is true that your Uncle Ze's actions were too despicable. But what if Jiao Jiao is also willing? Would you still want to be friends with her?"
Mo Bao'er shook her head: "If it's her own choice, then she'll be my aunt from now on, and her status will become that of an elder, so naturally we can't be friends anymore. Mom, I'm not that stupid. Chen Jiaojiao and I are just ordinary friends."
I've been spending more time with her these days, partly because there aren't many people my age around, and I can manage to have a few conversations with her. But she's been overly cautious in our interactions; this kind of friendship can't develop further.
Xiao Yue smiled and said, "As long as you understand."
Mo Bao'er stood up: "She stayed with me for a while, after all. Now that she's sick, I should go and see her."
Xiao Yue did not stop her upon hearing this: "It's only right. Bring some gifts over, don't say much, just sit with her for a while."
Seeing her daughter leave, Xiao Yue started coughing. Even she, living in a sheltered environment, was affected by the disaster; how much more difficult it must have been for those struggling in it.
The people sent out to investigate Li Zhenzhen's miscarriage twenty years ago are now stuck outside due to illness, and no information has been sent back. Many years have passed, and with one disaster after another, it is very difficult to investigate many things.
Mo Qing and Xiao Yue both decided to give up the investigation. They had already brought the person back, and even without the child, given Mo Qing's past with Li Zhenzhen, they couldn't be too heartless.
Mo Qing was afraid that if she continued to investigate, Xiao Yue would overthink things, and Xiao Yue was also afraid that Mo Qing would be saddened by the past. Li Zhenzhen had always been very disciplined and had clear boundaries, so after discussing it, the two decided to give up investigating further.
As soon as Li Zhenzhen entered Mo Ze's house, she slapped him and then began to question him sternly about what he meant.
Mo Ze hadn't been slapped since he was eight years old, and was stunned by Li Zhenzhen's slap. He didn't say anything for a moment, but Mo Ze's mother couldn't stand Li Zhenzhen's shrewishness and jumped up to retaliate.
However, Li Zhenzhen, who had been dancing for many years, was very agile. Mo Ze's mother couldn't gain any advantage and was instead kicked twice by Li Zhenzhen.
Mo Ze's mother was so angry that she tried to run out to get help, but Li Zhenzhen grabbed her hair and pulled her back.
"Either you keep your promise and prepare everything I need for the wedding, and once my daughter has recovered, you can properly marry her into the family."
Given the current limited resources, and my limited requests, please inform all the relatives and friends you need to. With your family's current circumstances, hosting a banquet for two tables shouldn't be a problem.
If you think we, a widow and her child, are easy to bully and want to deceive my daughter for nothing, then we'll go directly to Mr. Mo and have a proper talk with him.
I'm not afraid to tell you, I didn't just barge into your house on a whim. Before I came, I explained the whole thing to Mr. Mo.
Mr. Mo is a reasonable and fair man. Anyone with a brain can see who is right and who is wrong in this matter. Now I ask you, what kind of explanation do you intend to give my daughter?
Mo Ze listened to Li Zhenzhen's words and pulled his mother back from resisting. The matter had already reached his cousin's ears, so they had to bring the woman into the family.
Moze had originally planned to bring the person over, but his mother disagreed with wasting food on a wedding, and he also felt that since they had already slept together, they could just live together.
But it's clear that Moze has found himself a mother-in-law who's not to be trifled with.
Li Zhenzhen received a satisfactory reply and then left Mo Ze's house.
After leaving the central area, Li Zhenzhen went to the supplies department, intending to get some new clothes and a new bed sheet for Chen Jiaojiao. Even though the conditions were tough, as a mother, she still wanted to find a way to prepare some things for her daughter.
Li Zhenzhen was stopped by He Yucai when they were still some distance from the supply building.
This man has a really sharp eye. Li Zhenzhen was completely covered up except for her eyes, yet he still managed to recognize her and stop her.
"Zhenzhen, are you avoiding me? This behavior of yours is really hurting your brother's feelings. We used to be so honest with each other and so close that we couldn't be separated. How can you hurt your brother's feelings at this time?"
The weather was cold, and He Yucai was also covered up except for his eyes, but those eyes now gleamed with a dangerous light, subtly threatening Li Zhenzhen.
"Are you threatening me? You call yourself my brother, yet you have no patience at all! If I were truly trying to avoid you, would you be able to stop me now? And where did you see any sign that I was avoiding you?"
My daughter is too sick to get out of bed, and I've been running around for her all morning. And yet you, you stinking man, have wronged me. I'm the one who's truly heartbroken by you!
"You're no longer the polite, gentlemanly, and caring Brother He who used to treat me so well!" Li Zhenzhen angrily punched He Yucai, her voice filled with unspeakable grievance and indignation.
Upon hearing this, He Yucai immediately smiled again, and hurriedly apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were avoiding me, but it turns out your daughter is sick. I was confused. Please don't be angry, I'll apologize to you right away."
