At this moment, Kong Xiaodong carried his bag downstairs, didn't even glance at them, and went straight out of the house.
"Xiao Dong, Xiao Dong!"
Kong Xiaodong looked at his mother who had chased after him and felt helpless.
“Xiao Dong, I’ve told them not to come over again. Don’t be angry, and don’t leave your mother too.” Mother Kong said, tears streaming down her face.
But Kong Xiaodong has become immune to this kind of mother. She's always like this; if anything doesn't go her way, she'll burst into tears.
"Mom, I'll come back to see you once a month from now on. I'm going to stay at Grandpa's house for a few days." After saying that, she got into the car and left.
As Mrs. Kong watched the departing car, her eyes were filled with hatred.
She returned to the living room and saw her niece, who was still sitting there.
"Tell me, what happened today? I want the truth."
Seeing her aunt like this, Cousin Kong became frightened and recounted the whole story. "Auntie, could you please ask my cousin to introduce us to boyfriends?"
Mrs. Kong smiled sarcastically to herself. "So this is what they're like? They've got quite the ambition." Hearing their descriptions, she knew they were referring to the sons of the leaders.
I really don't dare to have any thoughts about this at all.
"You can go back now." After saying that, he called over the nanny and saw them out.
Kong Xiaodong returned to Kong Mingde's house. The old man was quite puzzled, as Kong Mingde, who had already retired, now spent his time tending to flowers and walking his birds.
"Xiao Dong?"
"Grandpa, it's alright, I'm just back to stay for a few days."
The elderly couple, Kong Mingde and his wife, didn't ask any further questions. Their grandson was grown up, and although they didn't approve of their eldest daughter-in-law, their eldest grandson was good.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the Zhang family went to Liu Aimin's house. They had lunch at their house, then went to Liu Maocai's house in the afternoon, and had dinner at Liu's house in the evening.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhenye and his family took their wives and children back to the wife's parents' home.
The little ones were welcomed at their maternal grandmother's house, but after lunch, the older ones wanted to go home. They were comfortable playing outside with Zhang Hongmei for a while, but they wouldn't stay any longer.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Hongmei booked several tables at a restaurant, and all her relatives and friends came to eat.
Zhang Hongmei finally saw Yu Hongxia, who was eight months pregnant.
"Senior Yu, are you having a hard time with such a big belly?"
Yu Hongxia nodded. "I'm getting old, not young anymore. When I was pregnant with Yu Xi, I didn't feel anything at all, but this child has made me very tired."
“You need to take care of yourself. You should find a nanny in advance. The two of you can’t take care of a newborn baby.”
"I really hadn't noticed until you pointed it out. I'll start paying attention to this when I go to work tomorrow. Yes, Song Tiesheng can't stand it, and he can't take care of children."
"Hongmei, I went to the hospital for an ultrasound, and they said it's a boy." Song Tiesheng was even happier.
"Congratulations to you both. By the way, does Yu Xi know about this?"
"I know, she came to my workplace once and saw my belly. But she was very unhappy."
"Hey! Don't take it to heart."
"I've already come to terms with it, otherwise I wouldn't have remarried. It's okay, let's not talk about me during the New Year."
Hongmei, you are so blessed. You already have nine grandchildren. After Xiao Wu and his family get married, your family will be even larger.
"Yes, with more sons, of course there will be more grandsons."
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, all five of the grandfathers went to work, while Xiao Wu and his two friends went to Shanghai.
The three of them returned on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, and the family reunited on the fifteenth.
Now that all seven of them are in school, the house is quiet again.
The five little ones are almost two years old. Zhang Shouyi has already found their teacher and invited him to his home to accompany them from now on.
In May, Zhang Hongmei and her family finally moved into the house that had been prepared long ago, and it felt much more spacious.
The house they lived in belonged to Liu Jingze, and Zhenye and the other three didn't want it, so they lived with their parents.
Song Zigan and Sanya moved into the apartment next to Liu Jingze's, the same apartment where Gu Chuanming and the others used to live.
Daniel arrived in the capital on May 19th this year.
The family moved to Fuzeyuan again, but Daniel still couldn't get in there.
This time, she brought even more gifts, mostly toys. Ruiyang and the others are already at the age where they play with toys, so Huang Meihua prepared a lot.
Daniel sat nervously next to his mother, afraid that she would be disappointed in him.
“Daniel, what’s done is done. I won’t talk about the past. Let’s talk about the future. Are you going to let your sister live alone like this?”
Daniel looked up and said, "Mom, even so, my sister doesn't regret it."
After saying that, he took an envelope out of his pocket and handed it to Zhang Hongmei.
"Mom, these are the photos of the children that my sister prepared for you."
Zhang Hongmei waited a while before taking the envelope, but didn't open it immediately. Instead, she stared at Daniel.
"Didn't either of you think about the consequences? How is Weiyu supposed to face you after this?"
"Mom, don't let Weiyu know. We all know that if Weiyu finds out, we will lose our beloved younger brother, and we also know that we are sorry to Qin Shuang, Yu Chen, and Xu Dong."
But Mom, I don't regret it. When I saw my sister lying in a pool of blood, I knew I had to accept it.
Zhang Hongmei sighed helplessly. She felt sorry for Qin Shuang, for the two children, and even more so for the other two children.
"Mom, please don't blame my sister, it was my idea."
"Daniel, I always thought you were a steady and mature kid, but I never expected you to be so scheming against your own good brother."
You know, Wei Yu had absolutely no suspicion of you; otherwise, you would never have succeeded.
“Mom, I know. I’ve been carrying this guilt in my heart. I’m sorry to Weiyu.”
Seeing Daniel like this, Zhang Hongmei didn't know what to say.
I picked up the envelope; inside were dozens of photos.
The two children in the photo are so beautiful, especially the girl, who has all the best features of both myself and Annie.
The two children can already walk, and there are records of their walking process here.
Zhang Hongmei's eyes were red. Her own child, but she couldn't acknowledge him or stay by his side.
"Mom, don't be sad. This is a letter and a recording from your sister. There's also a picture of Green and a video of him. And this is from Grandpa and Grandma."
"You listen to this yourself, I'm going out to check on the children." Daniel said and left. If he didn't leave soon, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold back his tears.
He knew his mother must be furious and heartbroken. But what could he do now that things had already come to this? He had already let down his brothers and his mother who believed in him.
