Ningxia had just had a tiny bit of hope, wondering if her second sister-in-law was thinking that way, and if her second brother was definitely on her side.
Now that I see it, it's all clear!
Ningxia felt a chill on the top of her head, and a sense of clarity welled up in her heart, which had been filled with resentment for her family.
Just as Zhao Xueqin said, why did she have to spend New Year's Eve at her parents' home?
Why would she neglect the child she was carrying and instead take care of her nephews from her maternal family?
Why did she have to fall out with her husband and get scolded by her own family?
Why?
Thinking of this, Ningxia squatted down, hugged herself tightly, and burst into tears.
Hearing Ning Xia's loud crying, the faces of everyone in the Ning family immediately turned grim.
Zhao Xueqin, in particular, had a long face, and thought to herself, "Who are you trying to mourn for during the New Year?"
Ning's mother also looked very uncomfortable, but she suppressed her displeasure and stepped forward to help Ning Xia up.
"Xiazi, what are you doing? It's the New Year, you can't cry, otherwise the whole year will be unlucky."
Hearing the subtle resentment in her mother's words, Ning Xia raised her pale, tear-streaked face, grabbed her mother's arm, and stared intently at her, asking, "Mother, do you think the same thing as my second sister-in-law?"
Ning's mother's eyes flickered for a moment, then she turned her head away and whispered, "What nonsense are you talking about? My son and daughter are both pieces of flesh that fell from my body. You think I would choose between them?"
However, your second sister-in-law is right about one thing: you don't really want to divorce your son-in-law, do you?
If you don't want to divorce, this stalemate can't go on forever.
I think your son-in-law is really angry this time. Why don't you go back and try to appease him? It's better not to actually get a divorce!
At this point, she wiped away a tear forcefully, looking as if she were thinking of her daughter.
Seeing this, Ningxia felt a chill in her heart.
“Zhonghua said that if you don’t want a divorce, that’s fine too, but you should have less contact with your family in the future. You shouldn’t let your son go hungry while you fatten up your nephew.”
Mother, what do you think I should do?
At this point, Ningxia glanced at her second brother's daughter, Ning Hao.
Ning Hao is the same age as her eldest son, Da Bao, but she is a whole size bigger than Da Bao and doesn't look like a member of the Ning family at all; they are all tall and thin.
If Ning Hao hadn't pushed her to the ground, Ning Hao would still be living in the Zhang family, eating and sleeping with her aunt.
When they were at the Zhang family's house, Ningxia doted on this nephew. She would always give him meat or other delicious food first, and then it would be Da Bao's turn.
Ning Hao was the catalyst that led to her and Zhang Zhonghua's divorce.
Hearing her daughter's words, Ning's mother felt a pang of unease. Did Xiazi harbor resentment towards her second brother?
This won't do.
"Xiazi, what are you saying?"
My son-in-law would never say such a thing. We were just arguing and bickering. He didn't mean it!
You will always be your mother's daughter, and our family will always be your maternal family.
If anything happens, won't you need your two older brothers to stand up for you?
I know that you did something wrong before. You lost your child, and you and your son-in-law both harbor resentment.
But he was still just a child, a little kid who didn't understand anything.
I understand that his uncle-in-law is unhappy. But if you, as his aunt, also harbor resentment, how painful would it be for me, his mother?
As Ning's mother spoke, she pounded her chest and wept bitterly as she spoke to Ning Xia.
