Earning fifty yuan for just a few words is like a windfall; why not take advantage of it?
As for whether it will cause trouble for Ning Anping's family.
What does that have to do with her? Anyway, their two families have already fallen out.
Ning Hongzao looked at the woman standing at the school gate, who was dressed quite fashionably.
She blinked.
"Are you my mother?"
“Yes, Hongzao, I’m your mother, I’m your mom?” Seeing Ning Hongzao, who looked somewhat like her, Zhao Qing couldn’t help but feel excited.
There's no mistake, this is her daughter, this is her daughter.
Seeing Ning Hongzao's blank expression, his heart sank even further.
"Has your father never mentioned me to you?"
"My father has never mentioned you. After all, he raised me single-handedly, acting as both father and mother. Whether I have a mother or not is irrelevant."
This is the truth. Although Ning Anping told the outsiders, he never told Ning Hongzao. Ning Hongzao heard it from the outsiders.
At first, she was very upset, but later, after being persuaded by Ning Hongze, she gradually became indifferent.
They did nothing wrong, so why make themselves sad for someone who is unrelated to them?
She thought her brother made a lot of sense.
“Red Date, listen to your mother, I really have my reasons.”
"oh."
Zhao Qing originally wanted to use a self-inflicted injury to make her daughter feel sorry for her, but who knew that her daughter seemed to be completely unmoved by the idea.
She saw no change in her daughter's expression; it was as if she were a complete stranger.
"you???????"
"You have your reasons, so what?"
"Don't you want to know what their difficulties are?"
“I don’t really want to know.” Ning Hongzao shook her head. “No matter what your difficulties are, they are not a reason for you to abandon your husband and daughter.”
"Red Date, don't you miss your mother?"
"I have thought about it before, but you were never there at that time. Now, I have completely given up on it and I hope you will never appear in my life again."
Zhao Qing never expected Ning Hongzao to react this way upon seeing her biological mother.
"I really didn't mean to leave you. I was forced to marry your father, but the person I loved was never Ning Anping. Later, my lover came back to me, and I went to pursue my own happiness. I...?"
"Madam, I didn't say that your pursuit of happiness is wrong, so you are perfectly free to continue to be happy."
The subtext was obvious: never appear in front of her again.
Before Zhao Qing could speak again, Ning Hongzao turned and left. Did she really think she was a fool? She knew her father's personality well.
Let alone forcing someone, even getting him to actively pursue a woman would be a tough task.
It's likely that Zhao Qing had no other choice but to submit to Ning Anping, hoping to find someone to rely on. Who knew that right after giving birth to her, her lover would resurface and come looking for her? Now, her foolish father is useless, and as for herself, she's even more useless.
"red dates??????"
Watching Ning Hongzao leave, Zhao Qing wanted to chase after her, but she had only taken two steps when a strange yet familiar voice came from behind her.
"Zhao Qing."
“Anping?” Zhao Qing turned around and looked at Ning Anping standing opposite her.
More than a decade has passed, and time seems to have been exceptionally kind to him.
She had thought that after years of working in the countryside, Ning Anping would only become old and haggard, but who would have thought that he would become more and more handsome?
What are you doing back here?
Seeing Zhao Qing come looking for Ning Hongzao, Ning Anping frowned. "My mother-in-law back then, oh no, my ex-mother-in-law, already said that you should never have given birth to this woman. So what do you want to do now?"
"Anping, don't talk to me like that."
From the beginning of their relationship, Ning Anping had always been very patient with her, speaking softly and gently. His sudden change left her feeling uneasy.
Especially noticeable was the presence of a young and beautiful woman standing beside him.
"Is this your ex-wife?" Xu Meimei raised a delicate eyebrow and asked.
"Yes, she's my ex-wife, but not really, since we didn't have a marriage certificate back then." Ning Anping suddenly realized that he could face all of this quite calmly.
"Anping, I have something to tell you."
Seeing Ning Anping so calm in front of her, Zhao Qing suddenly felt a lump in her throat.
"Let's find a place. Meimei is Hongzao's future mother, so we don't need to hide these things from her."
Seeing that Ning Anping was so sensible, Xu Meimei nodded in satisfaction.
Are you getting remarried?
Did he stop waiting for her?
He thought he would keep waiting.
Zhao Qing showed no awareness that she had left first, and a hint of resentment appeared in her eyes.
During the three years they were together, he treated her so well that even now, many years after they separated, she still felt that Ning Anping would continue to wait for her.
But unexpectedly, he was going to remarry.
Do you know what red dates are?
"I know, don't worry. Hongzao introduced her to me. She put in a lot of effort to win Meimei's heart."
“???????” This brat.
"Alright, what exactly did you come to see me for?"
"I want to take the red dates back with me." Now that Ning Anping has remarried, it should be more convenient for her to take the red dates back. "Miss, you wouldn't want your husband to have a woman from his ex-wife caught in the middle, would you?"
"No, that won't happen. My health is already ruined, and I probably won't be able to have children anymore. I love Hongzao very much and am willing to treat her as my own daughter. Besides, I heard that you remarried a long time ago and must have had another child. In that case, it would be unfair to Hongzao if she went to live with you."
“I am her biological mother, and I would never let her suffer.”
"The man I married later was from Beijing. He is now a senior colonel. With me, Hongzao can enjoy a good life. In the future, I will find her a man from Beijing to marry, so she won't have to struggle for a living like most people, or even marry a peasant who can only toil in the fields to make a living."
"Who told you that I can only make a living by digging in the fields?" Ning Anping sneered. "What stepfather is ever good? You abandoned Hongzao without hesitation back then, and now you actually have the nerve to show your face in front of us and say you want to take Hongzao away? On what grounds? Just because you have a bigger face?"
“Anping, listen to me.”
"I don't want to hear it. In short, I will not let Hongzao leave with you."
"How can you be so selfish? Can't you think more about the jujubes?"
