Lin Hao looked at the mother and daughter in front of him and suddenly didn't know what to do.
"I...I..."
For a moment, he felt that Mo Yan could see through all the emotions deep in his heart.
Yes, he had a dream just like Zhou Xiaoyu, but because his father went to jail, he could no longer pursue his dream. Later, he learned about Zhou Xiaoyu's situation, which led to what happened today.
Rather than saying he was standing up for Zhou Xiaoyu, it would be more accurate to say he was doing it for himself.
He was unwilling to accept that having such a father should rob him of his dreams.
"You're just a coward, a coward who only blames others. You say your dream is red, but I think you don't deserve it!"
You may disagree with your father, you may think he is bad, you may even hate him, but you cannot resent him for being your father.
You shouldn't consider this a stain on your record.
Zhou Xiaoyu looked at the boy seriously and said, "I do hate him, and I resent him, but I never think that it's a mistake for him to be my father. I can't choose my parents, but I can choose how I want to live my life."
Zhou Xiaoyu never hid her disappointment in that father. He actually tried to hide it from her and ask for her forgiveness, but she couldn't forgive him.
“I hate him, but I don’t see anything wrong with him being my father. I wouldn’t be here without him.”
Everything in the past is part of my experience, and I won't deny it. I will forge ahead and keep moving forward.
Perhaps others didn't understand what Xiaoyu was saying, but Lin Hao understood perfectly.
Xiaoyu meant that although she hated this father, she did not regret having such a father.
“He was wrong, he broke the law, but he is still my father, and that will never change. I can hate him, I can resent him, but I will support him in the future; it is my duty.”
After Zhou Xiaoyu finished speaking, she looked at Mo Yan with pride in her eyes, "My mother is incredibly great. Everything she did was for me."
In the end, Lin Hao was taken away by the teacher. Whether he understood or not was actually unimportant.
When the mother and daughter returned home, they saw Mo Bai, who had bought a lot of food, all for Zhou Xiaoyu.
"Sister, Mom said we should go pick her up tomorrow."
Mo Bai originally thought they would be back in a few days at most, but she didn't expect them to stay for so long. It means their senior citizen tour group gets along very well.
"Then I'll go pick him up. Do you have time?"
Mo Yan didn't think it was a big deal.
"Yes, we're not busy these days. We're planning to open another branch somewhere else."
"Just keep your work in mind."
"good."
The whole family ate hot pot together that night, chatting as they ate, and the night passed by in a flash.
That night, Zhou Xiaoyu took a pillow and went to find Mo Yan. "Mom, I want to sleep with you."
"Okay, come on over." Mo Yan beckoned to her, and the mother and daughter lay down on the bed together.
"Mom, what I want to do in the future is not what he said. I like mathematics and I want to pursue a research career."
This was the first time Zhou Xiaoyu had talked to her mother about the future.
"Sure, if you want to go, Mom will support you." Mo Yan indicated that there was no problem and that she should do what she wanted.
"Mom, it's so good to be your daughter."
Zhou Xiaoyu always felt that without her mother, her life would have been ruined long ago.
"Mom doesn't need to be sad or blame herself. Those bad people should be punished."
“I don’t care at all, don’t try to comfort me. I believe my daughter won’t blame me for this.”
If it's really weird, then I'm sorry, you can get lost.
"I love you mom."
"Okay, I understand."
...
When Mo Yan and Mo Bai went to pick up the old lady, they found that only two of the five old ladies remained. They were having breakfast, and to be honest, the breakfast was quite plentiful and looked delicious.
"You're here! Come and eat, Auntie's cooking is delicious."
Mo Yan and Mo Bai looked and realized that they had found an aunt.
The auntie immediately served them porridge and side dishes when she saw them. There were also steamed buns, dumplings, and fried dough sticks on the table.
The two sat down, tasted the porridge, and found it to be quite delicious. Mo Yan smiled as she drank her porridge.
"This tastes great, Mom. Aunt Gan, the aunt you found is a really good cook."
Aunt Gan's son is a coal mine owner; his family doesn't have much in the way of money.
So Aunt Gan and Bai Zhi are the two richest old ladies.
"Mom, where are the other aunties?" Mo Bai asked curiously. Weren't there five aunties in total?
Hearing this, Bai Zhi felt a little helpless. "We've only been here for two days. Two of them went back because they were worried about their grandchildren. And the other one didn't want to pay for a nanny or share the work, so we decided not to go."
After they left, we went straight to find the auntie and the tour guide, and went sightseeing everywhere.
Hearing the old lady's words, Mo Yan was no longer worried.
"So, do you and Aunt Gan want to go home now?"
Otherwise, why would you have him pick you up?
"We missed you all. We just took this opportunity to see you because we're going to go out and have fun soon."
Mo Bai: "..." So you just want them to come and take a look?
"What about the other aunties? Aren't you going to wait for them?" Mo Bai was a little worried. It might be dangerous if there were only two of them.
"We won't wait any longer. They need to go back to take care of their grandchildren. Even if we go out together, they'll miss us. The two of us can go." The old lady looked at Mo Bai's face and said meaningfully.
Actually, she also wanted to have grandchildren to take care of, but Mo Bai wasn't married, Mo Yan didn't plan to get married, and Xiao Yu was already a grown woman, so she wouldn't have to carry her anymore. So, she decided to go out and have some fun to relax.
Mo Bai: "..."
"Okay, be careful when you go out. I've transferred some money to your card. Buy whatever you want to eat, don't be stingy."
Mo Bai looked up at his mother and realized that she seemed to have aged overnight.
I don't know when it started, but her hair turned completely white, her face was covered in wrinkles, and she even became a little hunchbacked.
"Okay, okay, you guys are too long-winded. Go back, go back."
The old lady, after seeing the people, felt relieved and urged them to hurry on their way.
The two still took them to the travel agency. Mo Bai and Mo Yan asked them many questions and only let them leave after confirming that they were safe.
The old lady went on a trip, and Zhou Xiaoyu focused on her studies. Later, she heard that Lin Hao had been given a good talking-to by his teacher and was much more normal now.
Time flew by, and it was already the year Zhou Xiaoyu graduated.
The old lady is addicted to traveling. She always comes back for two days before leaving again. But this time is different. It's Xiaoyu's most important day, so of course she has to come back.
