"Mom?" Wang Chunni was startled by Tao Ying's expression.
“Chunni, things are different now than they were back then. Our family is doing better now. What you need to think about is whether you are happy and whether getting married will make you happier. Your job is not your family’s; it’s yours, Wang Chunni’s. You don’t need to give your salary to your family. If you want to remarry, Mom will support you. If you don’t want to remarry, Mom can still support you. Don’t have any other thoughts. Just be happy.”
Tao Ying sighed and looked at Wang Chunni, saying softly, "This child lacks a sense of security."
“Mom…” Wang Chunni couldn’t help but shed tears.
"Mom will ask around about Yang Lin and see what's going on with him. As long as he's a decent person, Mom won't interfere. But you'll have to figure out Yang Yang's situation yourselves. Even if you remarry, Mom doesn't really approve of you bringing Yang Yang with you." Tao Ying gently hugged Wang Chunni.
"Mom?" Wang Chunni asked, puzzled.
“You are yourself first, then your mother, then your daughter. Yangyang will start elementary school this year, and Baohe will go to the same school as Yangyang. Chuntao can stay with Yangyang for another two years, so you don’t need to worry too much. Mom is here for you. Just be happy.” Tao Ying patted Wang Chunni’s back affectionately.
How could I possibly feel at ease remarrying with my daughter in tow?
"Mom!" Wang Chunni burst into tears.
"Don't take the mourning period too seriously. It was just something we did to deal with Baomin's mess. He's your dad, and he's probably just happy to see you find your own happiness," Tao Ying said softly.
Wang Chuntao watched the two embrace, and tears streamed down her face.
"You silly child, are you jealous because I hugged your sister?" Tao Ying said with a smile, pulling Wang Chuntao into her arms as well.
The three women became much closer after this conversation.
After calming her two daughters down, Tao Ying went to the shop and called Jiang Jiang to see if Tang Xiao knew anything about Yang Lin.
He also used his connections in the city to investigate Yang Lin.
Yang Lin's situation in the city is relatively easy to investigate.
Yang Lin's parents were wrongly accused back then, and now Yang Lin is the only one left in the family. Yang Lin has good work ability and is quite upright. He is currently a deputy section chief.
Three days later, Tao Ying received a call from Jiang Huan.
"Tao Ying, I'm Jiang Huan." Jiang Huan stated his name directly.
"Has the investigation into Yang Lin's matter been completed?" Tao Ying paused for a moment and then asked softly.
“Yang Lin was a soldier in my regiment back then. He was quite capable, but because of family reasons, his chances of promotion here were slim, so he was demobilized.” Jiang Huan sighed after saying this. So many promising talents are wasted in this way.
"Okay, thank you," Tao Ying said.
"May I ask why you investigated Yang Lin?" Jiang Huan did not hang up the phone.
“Yang Lin is pursuing my eldest daughter,” Tao Ying replied.
“Yang Lin is a trustworthy person,” Jiang Huan replied after considering Tao Ying’s eldest daughter’s situation.
"Thank you!" Tao Ying said.
"I'll ask for a drink at the wedding then," Jiang Huan said after a moment's hesitation.
"Okay," Tao Ying replied softly, unable to refuse.
"Just let me know if you need anything next time," Jiang Huan added.
"Okay, I won't disturb your work anymore," Tao Ying said quickly when she saw that Jiang Huan still hadn't hung up the phone.
"Goodbye." Jiang Huan understood the meaning behind Tao Ying's words and hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Tao Ying immediately dialed Jiang Jiang's number.
"Tao, Sister Tao, did my third brother call you?" Jiang Jiang asked in a slightly guilty voice.
"Jiang Jiang, didn't I make it clear last time?" Tao Ying sighed.
I really can't understand how these powerful and influential people develop their thought processes.
Her own circumstances were completely different from Jiang Huan's.
"Sister Tao, let me explain, let me make up my story. I'm pregnant, and my third brother happened to be visiting me the day you called. He took the blame for me. Sister Tao, I have a feeling that my third brother is really interested in you. Why don't you consider it?" Jiang Jiang said coquettishly.
In the six months since their marriage, Jiang Jiang has been pampered by both the Jiang and Tang families, and she has become increasingly fond of acting spoiled.
"Jiang Jiang, do you even believe what you're saying?" Tao Ying asked sternly.
"Sister Tao~, it's my third brother who keeps asking me about you. I just wanted to give you both a chance, he's already over forty..." Jiang Jiang quickly begged for mercy.
"Jiang Jiang, don't play matchmaker. Your third brother and I aren't a good match. I want to start my own business right now," Tao Ying said softly.
“Sister Tao, starting a business doesn’t have to interfere with dating. Look, my third brother is willing, and my family doesn’t object. So, you don’t like my third brother? Tell me, and I promise I won’t tell anyone else.” Jiang Jiang whispered to Tao Ying.
"Okay, are you having a bad morning sickness? Is your pregnancy difficult?" Tao Ying changed the subject.
"Sister Tao, I've become ugly, and I'm carrying two babies, not one," Jiang Jiang said, her voice trembling with tears.
"Don't cry, don't cry, don't stay alone, things will be fine after the baby is born," Tao Ying quickly comforted her.
Jiang Jiang was already an older pregnant woman, and she was carrying twins, so it was bound to be more difficult for her than for others.
"When Tang Xiao isn't home, my assistant is always with me." Jiang Jiang wiped away her tears, not knowing why she was crying so easily these days.
It's only been four months now, and there are still five months to go. What am I going to do?
"That's good, but you absolutely can't be alone." Tao Ying comforted Jiang Jiang a few more times before hanging up the phone.
After all, phone bills were extremely expensive at that time.
Tao Ying found Wang Chunni and told her that she supported her in contacting Yang Lin.
"Mom, what should I say to Yangyang?" Wang Chunni looked at Tao Ying with some hesitation.
"To be honest, Yangyang is quite mature and independent. She understands many things. I think you should treat her like an adult and discuss things with her properly. Perhaps she already knows about your situation," Tao Ying said seriously.
"Yangyang knows?" Wang Chunni looked at Tao Ying in disbelief.
“Even Chun Tao could notice, so how could Yang Yang not notice, given how close she is to you? She’s just young, not stupid,” Tao Ying sighed.
Yangyang is even more sensitive than Chuntao. Thinking of this, Tao Ying couldn't help but sigh. Why are all her children such problem children?
"Mom, I was wrong." Wang Chunni lowered her head in self-reproach.
"It's good that you know you're wrong and correct it in time," Tao Ying comforted softly.
Before going to bed, Wang Chunni looked at Tao Chenyang, who had finished washing up and was lying obediently on the bed, and felt very guilty.
"I'm sorry, Yangyang, I've neglected you lately." Wang Chunni walked over and sincerely apologized to Tao Chenyang.
Yangyang is no longer as clingy as he was when he was little.
