"You're overthinking it. I have nothing to do with you, so how could there be any strangeness about it?"
Only when there is expectation in one's heart will there be hatred, resentment, and grievance.
And I am nothing but a stranger to you all!
Looking at her mother, whose hair was now gray, Ning Jing felt all the resentment she had felt in the past vanish like smoke.
As long as Ning's mother doesn't bother her anymore, Ning Jing will treat her as a stranger.
But now, it's obvious that they've come knocking on our door, and they don't think that way.
Zhao Xueqin, in particular, was unwilling to comply.
"You wish! What do you mean 'it doesn't matter'?"
Even if our mother did something back then, there was nothing we could do about it.
No matter what, you still came from our mother's gut.
"If you dare to neglect the elderly, I'll shout it from all around and let the neighbors know what kind of person you are."
Seeing that Ning Jing's gentle words were not working, Zhao Xueqin slapped her thigh and started yelling at Ning Jing.
"Oh, if you think there's a problem, you can sue me."
Ning Jing completely disregarded her threats.
You should know that when the original owner was sold, his household registration was transferred to the Fu family.
Although her surname is Ning, she has absolutely no connection to the Ning family.
As long as Ning Jing insists that she has no connection with the Ning family, it won't matter who Ning's mother and Zhao Xueqin bring in.
It's impossible for someone to be your relative out of nowhere.
There's no such thing as DNA testing these days. Household registration doesn't matter. Just based on the same surname and no contact for so many years, who would believe that?
"You...you..."
Zhao Xueqin was speechless after being rebuked. Seeing Ning Jing's confident expression, she suddenly felt uneasy and dared not act aggressively anymore.
"Mother, what are we going to do? Ninghao hasn't even gotten married or had a son yet. If he goes to jail, what girl will want to marry him when he gets out!"
Thinking about her son's imprisonment and the fact that there was no chance of him ever getting out of jail, Zhao Xueqin suddenly collapsed to the ground and burst into tears.
When Ning's mother heard Zhao Xueqin's words, she thought of her grandson who was still being held in jail!
Ignoring her heartbreak and Ning Jing's disownment, she wiped away her tears and pleaded with Ning Jing, "Jingzi, I know it's my fault as your mother, but Ning Hao is your blood-related nephew after all. How can you just watch him go to jail like this?"
If he can't find a wife in the future, your little brother won't be able to carry on the family line.
"Please, I'm begging you, please let him go!"
After saying that, Ning's mother made a gesture as if to kneel down in front of Ning Jing.
Ning Jing frowned and quickly dodged away. Her originally calm and composed expression darkened.
“If your grandson does something wrong, the law will punish him. What does it have to do with me?”
Even if it wasn't me today, it would have been someone else.
If you truly care about him, you should ensure he receives a proper education.
Turn over a new leaf and become a good person again.
Instead of begging me here, and even if you did beg me, I'm not a leader, I don't have the authority to help him reduce his punishment.
After speaking in a calm voice, Ning Jing turned to leave.
Seeing this, Zhao Xueqin refused to give in and rushed forward, trying to hug Ning Jing.
But a figure suddenly appeared and blocked her way, preventing her from going any further.
"Mom, sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
Yang Meizi and Ning Yue looked at Zhao Xueqin and Ning's mother, who were kneeling on the ground, with a mixture of shame and anger, and angrily questioned them.
