Chapter 1564 It’s Better to Have Nothing
Fortunately, Miao Liang gave Qiao Dongliang no face and mainly talked about the affairs of Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin. As for Qiao Dongliang, she would not mention him if she could avoid it, and if she had to mention him, she basically just brushed him off.
While Erbao and Sanbao were angry at Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin for being mean to their mother, they vaguely felt that something was not right. Only the silent Dabao realized something.
After Miao Liang stopped talking, Sanbao bit her lip and said, "Grandma, grandma and that aunt are so mean to my mom, what about grandpa, what is grandpa doing?" When these two women were bullying her mom, she only heard how hard her mom worked, how her dad started to treat her well from that time, and how her master helped her mom at that time.
But after listening to it again and again, there was always one person missing - grandpa.
Miao Liang didn't say anything mean to Qiao Dongliang. She grabbed Sanbao's hand and said, "You still don't understand. For example, you often quarrel with Erbao. When you two really quarrel, your mother won't help anyone. She will criticize you both and ask you to reconcile. To Nannan, you are all her sweethearts. She is the one who holds your hands tightly and you are all flesh and blood. She can't bear to let you go."
"It's different. Mom didn't favor Erbao and me because Erbao and I were just joking. We have a good relationship. Mom also made us reconcile in the end. What about grandpa? Did grandpa make them reconcile or what?" Sanbao was not satisfied with such a perfunctory answer.
Miao Liang was happy about her three children's intelligence and could only answer their questioning looks with "hehehe", letting them experience the meaning of their laughter themselves: "Nannan has a hard time. There are some things that Nannan doesn't want to pursue, and we don't want to mention them to you three. What you three need to understand is that your grandpa is still very good to you. Of course, he is not the worst to Nannan, after all, it depends on who you compare with. Under such circumstances, if your grandpa didn't help your mother at all, your mother's life would be even more difficult."
No matter how much she disliked Qiao Dongliang and thought he was an irresponsible father, Miao Liang did not discredit Qiao Dongliang where it was necessary to praise him, and gave him the most fair evaluation.
It was the first time for the three children to hear about their mother's life. They were all shocked because they had never heard about their mother's life before. What was most difficult for the three children to accept was that such a thing actually happened to their favorite mother.
Erbao's always smiling face was unusually serious at this moment, just like Dabao and Zhai Sheng, and he couldn't help but clench his fists. Erbao, a junior high school student, looked quite manly. At this moment, his face was stern, and he really had some of the posture and spirit of Zhai Sheng.
"Why would someone like this come to our house and look for my mom?" Erbao's voice was low, and it was obvious that even the funny Erbao was angry this time.
Whenever Erbao thought about the fact that this so-called aunt's academic performance was obviously not as good as his own, while his mother was still in the nine-year compulsory education, and that his grandmother, whom he had never met, was biased and insisted that his mother take a part-time job to support this aunt's education, Erbao would get so angry that he wanted to find someone to fight with so that he could vent the anger in his stomach.
Working while studying?
Ever since he was old enough to understand, his mother loved studying so much that even when she became the Minister of Foreign Affairs, she always set a minimum of two hours of reading time for him. So Erbao simply couldn't believe that his mother, who loved studying so much, would lose the opportunity to study. It was such a painful thing for her.
When my mother encountered these cruel things, she was about the same age as me now. Thinking about how she grew up in a honey pot, Erbao became more and more angry: "Grandma, was my mom born to my grandma?" Is there any mother who would do such a thing, sacrificing a daughter who can study to raise a daughter who obviously can't study.
No matter how biased you are, you can't be so unreasonable, right?
Miao Liang sighed: "I really don't want to say this. Deep down, I'm afraid your mother also hopes that she is not her biological daughter. If she is not her biological daughter, then everything she has experienced will be much easier to accept." It is precisely because they are all close relatives that this seems scary.
Nan Nan was made to handle everything. In order to clear themselves, Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin did not hesitate to throw dirty water at Nan Nan at school. Qiao Zijin was the one who caused the premature love affair, but in the end, she was forced to take the blame by the mother and daughter.
Qiao Nan had never mentioned these "things" to Miao Liang, but that didn't mean Miao Liang knew nothing.
At that time, Miao Liang didn't know that Qiao Nan was in love with her son. She just wanted to get to know Qiao Nan out of the relationship between an elder and a younger person and because she liked Qiao Nan.
When Miao Liang found out about what Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin did to Qiao Nan in her high school, she was completely speechless. In fact, part of Miao Liang's affection for Qiao Nan also stems from Qiao Nan's experiences.
When Miao Liang had not yet developed a good impression of Qiao Nan, she had just seen the excellence of Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin. At most, she felt sympathy for Qiao Nan, sympathizing with her for having such a confused mother and such a selfish sister. But when she got to know Qiao Nan and felt that she was a particularly good girl, Miao Liang's sympathy immediately turned into distress.
It's just that as the person involved, Qiao Nan herself didn't mention these things, so Miao Liang couldn't deliberately dig up Qiao Nan's scars, even in the name of love.
Miao Liang only said a few more words today when her three grandsons asked about it. Otherwise, she herself would have almost forgotten all these things. She only remembered that after Qiao Nan left her mother Ding Jiayi, her life became better and better.
Most people only see Qiao Nan's present glory, but who can imagine that Qiao Nan also has such a sad past and childhood.
"Fortunately, Dad showed up. He is like Mom's Prince Charming. He rescued her when she was in the most difficult time." Sanbao felt very complicated. She always thought that the fairy tales her mother told her when she was young were just fairy tales and could not be true.
I never thought that fairy tales can have real-life versions. Her parents are just such a couple.
When I think of my mother, she was abused by her own mother to the point that she couldn't even eat enough. When my father met her, my mother was malnourished. In an instant, the three children had no good feelings towards Qiao Nan, Ding Jiayi and Qiao Zijin.
Dabao finally understood why his mother, who was so filial, never mentioned his grandmother in front of his siblings.
