Chapter 422: Confession in the Cemetery



When Xu Yingying's daughter ran away crying because her grandmother Liu Qi said a few more words to her out of disgust, Xu Yingying completely exploded.

Not only did she have a big quarrel with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law at home, she also called Liu Baogen and asked him to come back immediately.

Liu Baogen procrastinated and finally got home very late.

When he entered the house, he saw that there was no one in the living room and everyone seemed to have gone to bed. He breathed a sigh of relief and tiptoed back to the bedroom. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Xu Yingying sitting on the bed waiting for him to come back.

"It's so late, why aren't you sleeping yet?"

He asked as he undressed.

"Oh, I want to sleep, but can I sleep?" Xu Yingying sneered.

"I know your parents are here, and you're not used to it. Just be patient for a few days."

"How many days? Then tell me a definite date. How long will they stay?" Xu Yingying pressed.

"Yingying, I can't explain this right away. Mom and the others had no choice."

"Forced to do so? Humph, she's just Zhong Linglong. Even if you treated her badly back then, you still raised her to adulthood. Can she really attack you and kill you?" Xu Yingying stopped pretending.

"How do you know that?" Liu Baogen's expression turned serious. Could it be that his mother or younger sister let the secret slip?

"Anyway, I know that hiding and hiding will never end here. It's okay for me to suffer a little injustice, but I don't want our daughter to suffer injustice. Your mother scolded her and made her cry today."

Liu Baogen loved his only daughter, but he couldn't bring himself to ask his relatives to leave.

He knew better than his father and sister why his relative was afraid to escape.

No one knew how much property his cousin had taken away from the Zhong family back then. Not to mention that the family had never been hard-pressed, even when he was out of work, they relied on the money his cousin sent him to get by.

And the start-up capital for his business was raised by his parents selling a lot of things.

Even with these, he couldn't drive people away.

He and Xu Yingying no longer had any feelings for each other, and Xu Yingying's words had little influence on him. He had his own considerations.

"Yingying, why don't you and your daughter go out for a few days to relax and unwind? You've always wanted to go shopping in Hong Kong City, so let's go this time."

Xu Yingying, who originally didn't want to leave home, was immediately attracted.

That's a port city. She has wanted to move there for a long time and has mentioned it several times, but her husband has always put it off.

Now that she can do it, how can she be willing to turn down this opportunity.

"It's just me and my daughter. No one else can come." She was also afraid that Liu Baogen would get crazy and ask her to bring her mother-in-law or sister-in-law. She couldn't tolerate either of them.

"Hey, just the two of you, is that okay?"

"That's it." Xu Yingying immediately became happy.

When Xu Yingying woke up the next day, she started packing her things and ignored her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.

They had a big fight yesterday, and both Liu Qi and Liu Baoqin thought that Xu Yingying would never let it go. But they didn't expect her to be so quiet today, which made them a little uncomfortable.

Liu Baogen was afraid that Xu Yingying would nag him, so he spent money and gave gifts to have someone expedite the processing of the documents the couple needed to go to Hong Kong. They said it would take at least two days, and he just hoped to have some peace at home during those two days.

After Xu Yingying told her daughter about the trip to Hong Kong City, her daughter was overjoyed.

It’s a pity that the little girl didn’t keep her mouth shut and showed it off to everyone.

When the two daughters of the Liu family found out about this, they immediately felt uncomfortable.

That's a port city, they want to go there too.

The two girls discussed secretly for a long time, waiting for Liu Baogen to come home so that they could go over and fight for him.

Let’s talk about Linglong.

When she just lay down at night, she was still a little sleepless and thinking about some things.

When I fell asleep later, the sleep quality was pretty good.

When I got up in the morning, breakfast was already prepared.

I hired two people to clean the bathroom. The auntie is also a good cook. She gets paid so much, and I'm afraid of losing her job.

After returning home, I naturally have to show my performance and strive to keep working. The breakfast is also very sumptuous.

After the couple had breakfast, Wei Qingyin said she wanted to visit Zhong Huaimin's grave.

Linglong immediately went back to the house and changed into black clothes.

When she came out, she found that her father was also wearing a black coat, a black hat and gloves.

The female assistant bought some flowers from somewhere and took them into the car.

On the way to Zhong Huaimin's grave, Wei Qingyin looked very sad.

Linglong had a very vague impression of her father, Zhong Huaimin.

She rarely mentioned it in front of her parents.

But she could clearly feel that the relationship between her father and mother was very close.

The eventual breakdown of their family can only be described as a tragedy of the times.

The couple didn't engage in any small talk along the way.

After finding her husband's grave, Wei Qingyin paid someone to repair it.

Although it hadn't been long, it was probably because she had contributed a generous sum of money, or perhaps the vice-governor and the others wanted to make up for it.

When they arrived at the grave, the cemetery that once looked shabby and desolate had been completely transformed and became majestic and solemn.

And the small grave that once existed has also disappeared.

My mood is different from the last time I came.

After placing offerings and flowers, Wei Qingyin squatted in front of her husband's tombstone.

"Huaimin, I'm here to see you again." Touching the photo on the tombstone, she smiled faintly.

"I found Hongdou. You should be very happy too. Even though we are not by her side, she is very outstanding and worthy of being our daughter."

She chattered on and on for a long time.

He didn't stand up until he said he was tired, because his feet were numb from squatting for too long.

It was Linglong who helped her up before she could stand up.

"Linglong, talk to your dad too. Your dad loves you the most."

"Um."

Wei Qingyin was taken over by the female assistant and helped away.

Linglong squatted in front of her father's tombstone, looking at the black and white photo on it with a solemn expression.

"Dad, I'm Linglong..."

Because her relatives and others were standing farther away, Linglong confided all her biggest secrets.

"I don't know why I was given this chance to live again, to know my past and future, and to find my mother, but I will cherish the time I have left. Dad, you can rest assured that Mom won't be alone anymore, because I'll be with her."

Wei Qingyin thought her daughter didn't remember anything from her childhood, and even if she wanted to talk to her husband, she wouldn't be able to talk for long. But to her surprise, her daughter actually talked for longer than she did.

She couldn't help but feel tears welling up in her eyes.

Even if she doesn't remember, she is still father and daughter.

It’s a bitterly cold winter and it’s already very cold outside.

The cemetery has less shelter and the temperature is much lower than in the densely populated city.

By the time Linglong finished speaking and stood up, her face was red.

Touching her cold hands, Wei Qingyin felt a pang of heartache.

"You should have worn gloves when you went out. You look so cold."

"It's okay, Mom. I'm still young."

Relying on her youthful and delicate figure, she felt hot all over soon after returning to the old house.

She didn't take it seriously at first.

When she took a nap after lunch, she still didn't come out. Wei Qingyin was worried and went to check on her. When she touched her forehead and felt it was burning hot, she immediately panicked.
