Chapter 113 The Imperial Edict Arrives in Beijing (1/2)



"Aya, Lingling, I did owe you these past four years, but I didn't intentionally abandon you. I have lost my memory.

Moreover, when I left, I asked Wang Daniu to take care of you."

Xiao Changhe looked at his wife who once loved and respected him, and now there was nothing but indifference in her eyes.

His once well-behaved and sensible daughter had not only become so sharp-tongued, but also had no affection for him in her eyes.

It seemed that they really didn't intend to recognize him. The anger in Xiao Changhe's heart faded away and turned into powerless panic.

He opened his mouth slightly in despair and tried to explain.

Mu Xiya heard Xiao Changhe's explanation and was about to refute it.

"Mother?" Xiao Ling'er suddenly called out, looking at her and shaking her head.

Then, after glancing at the osmanthus tree not far away, Mu Xiya understood and stopped talking.

Xiao Ling'er took a step forward, raised her voice slightly, and then retracted her sharp tone and looked at Xiao Changhe and asked:

"Entrust it to Wang Daniu? You're so funny. Not everyone in this world is as confused as you.

After Wang Daniu got married the following year, he knew that his wife was dissatisfied with him taking care of us, an orphan and a widow, so he stopped taking care of us.

He knew his family and children were the most important things.”

"And you thought that after entrusting it to someone else, you could rest assured and not feel guilty about your four-year disappearance.

You have another good excuse - amnesia!

With the excuse of amnesia, you can openly bring women from outside to your mother to claim your sovereignty.

Not only do you not care about your mother's reputation, you also let her, your legal wife, take care of that woman with you.

You are so shameless! "

"I...I'm not, I didn't..."

Since you met, you have never expressed any concern for your mother, who has low IQ, nor have you ever cared about how she is struggling to make ends meet in the Xiao family with her two young children.

They don’t care about the hardships and dangers we, orphans and widows, went through to escape famine and come to Jianzhou.

Dad, I call you Dad, do you have the nerve to answer me?

Xiao Ling'er's accusation was like a loud slap in Xiao Changhe's face. He moved his lips up and down, trying to explain.

Xiao Ling'er didn't give him a chance and continued to attack crazily:

"Mother, mindful of the bond we once shared as husband and wife, cannot bear to say harsh words to you, but you know in your heart that the person you, Xiao Changhe, owe the most to is her.

She is the daughter of a scholar and had a very good marriage prospect, but she was framed by the old lady of the Xiao family, your biological mother, and had to marry you.

After the marriage, your mother not only seized A'niang's dowry, but also wanted to sell me, her own granddaughter. A'niang was injured for trying to stop her and eventually became a fool with low IQ.

What about you? After you married A Niang home, she gave birth to your children and became a fool by working like a slave in the Xiao family.

What have you done for her? In order to fulfill your filial duty, you abandoned the three of us, mother and son.

Now, you are worried about the daughter of your benefactor who has all her limbs intact, and you must keep her by your side to take care of her.

Why don’t you think about the fact that four years ago, your mentally retarded wife and young children also needed care?

Also, I'm very curious, is it true that the only way to repay a favor is to pledge yourself to someone and take care of them personally?

Okay, if you want to repay a favor, no one will stop you. But please don’t ask for everything. Not everything in this world goes according to your wishes.

If you still have any guilt in your heart, please don't disturb our peaceful life anymore.
