Wang Xiaoyan's eyes reddened.
"Mom, please come back. I miss you." She truly felt wronged.
It was only after losing her mother—or rather, Zhao Qinglan—that Wang Xiaoyan realized how bitter life had become.
The adults would resent Zhao Qinglan for causing the divorce and Wang Dazhi for losing his position as workshop director.
But children's feelings are very direct.
Without Zhao Qinglan, their home was constantly filled with smoke and fumes, and their quality of life plummeted.
No one cooks good food, no one provides clean clothes, and there are countless other benefits.
So Wang Xiaoyan and Wang Xiaofei regretted it; they really regretted it.
Miss me? Zhao Qinglan sneered. She probably misses her going back to be their nanny!
Isn't that what I miss?
After her sister finished speaking, Zhao Qinglan remained silent.
Wang Xiaofei said, "Mom, please come back. We won't bully my sister anymore."
He thought that Zhao Qinglan would be happy if he said that, but little did he know that hearing this would completely ignite Zhao Qinglan's anger.
He still dares to mention Xiaoduo and not bully her? Does he think this is some kind of favor?
Sure enough, the Wang family members, from the oldest to the youngest, are all scoundrels, rotten to the core.
"Don't call me 'Little Duo'! I'm telling you, not only me, but Little Duo has absolutely nothing to do with you anymore!" she said fiercely.
Wang Xiaofei and Wang Xiaoyan were somewhat frightened by her anger, wondering why she was unwilling to come back even after they had all gone through this.
"Qinglan." Sui Wenjing nudged her, reminding her to be mindful of her presence, as people were coming out to look in the hallway.
Zhao Qinglan then turned around. "Sister Sui, no need to see me off. You can go back now. We can contact each other again if anything comes up."
"Okay." Be careful on the road.
After speaking, Zhao Qinglan walked past Wang Xiaofei and Wang Xiaoyan without giving them another glance.
Watching her walk away, Wang Xiaoyan felt extremely wronged.
"How could she do this? She used to be so good to us."
Yes, it's precisely because it was so good that Zhao Qinglan was able to hate them so much after learning about the vicious things they had done.
The more she loved them before, the more she hated them afterwards!
The anger in my heart did not completely subside even after I arrived at the hospital.
Zhao Qinglan stood at the hospital entrance for a while, waiting until she finally calmed down before going inside.
For the time being, Zhao Qinglan has no plans to tell her mother about her intention to get a divorce. She needs to make some preparations before she can do so.
Seeing that there are hardly any people left in my mother's family doesn't mean that there isn't a single person who can be of any use.
After explaining some things to her sisters, Zhao Qinglan left the hospital and headed to the countryside.
...
"Sigh." Da Wa had lost count of how many times he had sighed.
Mingming was free after his stepmother left. His father was in the military camp during the day, and no one was keeping an eye on them.
Strangely enough, he actually stayed at home obediently with his younger brother.
"Brother, don't you miss Mom's cooking too?" Erwa asked with a knowing look.
The older sister glared at her younger brother, annoyed. Although she missed her cooking, she didn't miss it to that extent. Her brother, on the other hand, was a glutton who only thought about food all day long.
Xiao Duo, biting her pencil, said with distress, "Big Brother, Mom's not here, so no one's combing my hair." Her hair was all crooked now.
The eldest brother thought that as the older brother, he should take care of his younger siblings. Of course, the second brother could take a backseat, since all he knew was how to eat.
Picking up the comb, the eldest child began to study how to comb a girl's hair.
After studying it for a long time without figuring it out, Da Wa went next door to ask Wu Mei for help.
After understanding what Da Wa wanted to do, Wu Mei was also incredulous.
"You said you wanted to comb Xiaoduo's hair?"
“Yes, Auntie, my little sister can’t comb her hair properly. I think once I learn how, I’ll be able to comb her hair too.”
Da Wa is such a good older brother. Look at my two rascals. I used to think they treated my daughter, their little sister, quite well, but compared to Da Wa, they're nowhere near as good.
Since Da Wa wanted to learn, and Wu Mei had nothing better to do anyway, she asked him to call Xiao Duo over as well. She then taught Xiao Duo while she was re-combing his hair.
The eldest child studied with such seriousness, even more so than when he used to play war games.
Although Li Huai took great care of Xiao Duo, his daughter whom he had gained for nothing, he was far too meticulous to care whether Xiao Duo's hair was combed crookedly.
As the year draws to a close, training tasks suddenly increase again, and it's already quite good that he can still manage to bring lunch back every day to check on his three children.
Zhao Qinglan's personal information, which had been reviewed by the military, quickly reached Yu Huimin.
Looking at Zhao Qinglan's past, Yu Huimin's heart, which had been troubled for many days, finally brightened.
Ha, with this family background, she even got divorced while raising her daughter. How could she have thought so highly of this woman before?
That makes sense, though; if your family is too supportive, you're more likely to lack ability yourself.
Since she has no family support, wouldn't it be much easier for me to deal with her?
When Yu Huimin looked down on Zhao Qinglan, she completely forgot what kind of family background Zhao Qinglan came from back then.
If she hadn't climbed up to Li Zhenhua and married him to become a military officer's wife, she might not have been as successful as Zhao Qinglan back then.
However, people are forgetful and can only see the present. They tend to selectively forget the bad things from the past.
When her husband came home in the evening, Yu Huimin started nagging at the dinner table.
"Old Li, I also know about the woman Li Huai recently married, Zhao Qinglan." She hesitated before continuing.
