Wang Jingyi smiled and took the child from her: "Go ahead and don't worry."
When Su Yue returned after finishing her call, she heard Wang Jingyi gently comforting the crying Ping An: "Ping An, don't cry. Mommy is just going to take this call and will be back soon."
Su Yue strode into the house, a concerned smile on her face: "Did Ping An wet the bed?"
Wang Jingyi shook her head and said helplessly, "No, as soon as you left, Ping An started howling at the top of his lungs. I guess he felt insecure because he couldn't smell your scent."
Su Yue gently picked up Ping An and held him close to her chest, her voice full of tenderness: "Ping An, you're so young and you already recognize people?"
Wang Jingyi exclaimed, "I also find it strange. Usually, babies don't start recognizing people until they are six months old, but Ping An started reacting at just over three months old."
"You might not believe it, but he really does become uneasy when he can't feel you."
Su Yue gently pressed her forehead against Ping An's little forehead, her tone slightly reproachful: "You didn't make a fuss when Daddy left, but you started crying because Mommy was only gone for a few minutes. Do you only recognize Mommy? Hmm?"
But she hadn't held him as many times as Fu Shen had.
Wang Jingyi said with a smile, "When children are young, they usually rely more on their mothers. When they grow up, they should stick to their fathers."
Su Yue moved her gaze away from Ping An's forehead, looked at him tenderly, and said softly, "It seems I'll have to take you with me when I go to the county town later."
Wang Jingyi, out of curiosity, asked, "What are you going to the county town for?"
Su Yue turned her gaze to her and succinctly recounted the complicated and messy relationship between Jiang Huaidong and Su Xiaomei.
"The call just now was made by Officer Chen through Su Xiaomei... She has something to say to me."
Wang Jingyi listened quietly, a look of surprise on her face. "You said that when Su Xiaomei came to find Jiang Huaidong after marrying him, she was tricked and taken away. Later, she was discovered by Officer Chen and brought back. When she returned, Jiang Huaidong was already preparing to get engaged to someone else. Su Xiaomei and her mother went to make a scene, and Jiang Huaidong gave her some compensation. Her mother was greedy for money and didn't care about Su Xiaomei's life or death at all. After her mother returned home, she actually took lamp oil to the house that had tricked her and set fire to their mentally challenged son in the middle of the night, burning him to death. She ended up in prison for it. I really don't know what she was thinking. Didn't she think about what the consequences would be if someone's son was burned to death?"
Su Yue: "She probably blamed everything on that old lady, thinking that if that old lady hadn't tricked her back at the train station, Jiang Huaidong wouldn't have had an excuse to find someone else."
Wang Jingyi frowned deeply and said with disapproval, "Isn't she just deceiving herself? Judging from this incident, Jiang Huaidong doesn't like her at all. Is it worth it for someone like that?"
Su Yue smiled faintly. "Who knows what she's thinking? She called me over this time, but I don't know what we have to talk about. If anything, she should talk to Jiang Huaidong."
Wang Jingyi looked at Su Yue and said, "Yueyue, you and Su Xiaomei both have the surname Su. Could she be your cousin, and Liu Meili be your second aunt?"
She had only heard Su Yue say that she had no parents and lived with her second aunt.
As for Su Xiaomei's marriage to Jiang Huaidong, she had neither heard Su Yue mention it nor Yang Guohua had said anything about it.
Su Yue said calmly, "It's them."
Wang Jingyi's lips twitched involuntarily. "Didn't Jiang Huaidong break off his engagement with you for Su Xiaomei? They must have liked each other back then, but how did things turn out like this?"
Su Yue's eyes flickered. "Perhaps Jiang Huaidong later realized that no matter how much he liked Su Xiaomei, it wouldn't help him in his career. When he met someone with better conditions, his mind started to wander again."
Wang Jingyi: "Men who are fickle will not have a good ending."
Su Yue nodded in agreement.
After Jianghuai Dong, things certainly didn't end well.
Wang Jingyi reached out and hugged Ping An again, "Aren't you going to see Su Xiaomei? Go inside and prepare Ping An's diapers, we'll go together."
