Hearing the sound, Xuancao and Qin Xiangdong, who were standing at the kitchen door, immediately turned to look at the courtyard gate.
Almost at the same time.
Zhao Tiezhu's pleading voice came from outside the courtyard gate.
"Xuancao, your mother is really dying!"
"Go see her! I'll kneel down for you!"
I beg you!
"..."
Yu Mingxiang, who had just arrived in the front yard: "!!!"
Upon hearing this, his expression immediately changed.
She instinctively looked at her daughter.
Under her gaze, the daylily: ...
Seeing her arrive, he said calmly, "Mom, let's hurry up and cook!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "Ah? Oh!"
She responded absentmindedly, and seeing her daughter enter the kitchen, she hurriedly followed her in.
Qin Xiangdong: "..."
Seeing his mother and sister go into the kitchen as if nothing had happened, he thought for a moment and went to the front door.
He peered through the crack in the door.
Upon seeing Zhao Tiezhu and Zhao Tengfei kneeling outside the door, along with several villagers who had followed them, his face darkened.
Outside the door.
Zhao Tiezhu vaguely heard the commotion inside the courtyard and crawled forward two steps on his knees.
"Xuancao, I know you're here. I'm begging you on my knees!"
“I know I’m not a good father. I know I haven’t treated you well in the past. I’ve never said a word to you, even if you resent or hate me. But your mother… she really is dying!”
"She held on to her last breath, refusing to close her eyes, just so she could see you one more time!"
"Xuancao, please, for the sake of us raising you for eighteen years, go back and see her one last time!"
"Just one look, just one look. As long as you can ensure your mother leaves without regrets, I'd be willing to do anything for you!"
"..."
Zhao Tiezhu spoke with an air of deep affection and loyalty.
Upon hearing this, the villagers who had followed couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
"I heard that Li Guihua is really dying."
"As mother and daughter, even if Li Guihua mistreated Xuancao, Xuancao shouldn't have refused to see her one last time."
"I've heard that if a person has unfulfilled wishes before they die, they won't find peace even in death..."
"No matter how bad Zhao Tiezhu is, Xuancao has called him 'Dad' for eighteen years. They are father and daughter. It's unreasonable for an adoptive father to kneel before his adoptive daughter."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiangdong, who was peering through the crack in the door, exclaimed: "!!!"
He was instantly furious.
That despicable Zhao Tiezhu! He's putting his sister on the hot seat.
Qin Xiangdong angrily opened the door, intending to argue with everyone, but...
Before he could speak, Xuan Cao's cold voice came from behind him.
"You talk as if you have such deep feelings for Li Guihua."
Xuancao, carrying a fire poker, slowly walked over and looked at Zhao Tiezhu, saying, "But isn't it all your fault that Li Guihua has become like this?"
Zhao Tiezhu's face lit up with joy when he saw the daylily arrive.
Upon hearing her words, his expression darkened.
What nonsense are you spouting?
He instinctively stood up and tried to pull Xuan Cao away, saying, "Stop talking nonsense, Xuan Cao, come home with Daddy!"
Daylily: ...
She dodged Zhao Tiezhu's outstretched hand and said coldly, "I'm talking nonsense? Am I talking nonsense, or are you just burying your head in the sand?"
"If you hadn't forced Li Guihua to seduce Wang Dahai from the next village just for a bite to eat, would Li Guihua have had her eyes gouged out by Wang Dahai's wife?"
"If you hadn't been so stingy with money and refused to treat Li Guihua's eyes, would her eye condition have become incurable?"
