"Mom, take good care of Dad." Qin Zijin calmly instructed Zheng Huilin and stood up to leave.
Zheng Huilin grabbed her hand, her eyes red and she choked with sobs as she spoke, "Zijin, you're still blaming Mom and Dad, right? You still can't forgive us, right?"
Qin Zijin didn't answer, just stood there without struggling.
Zheng Huilin continued, "Mom and Dad really know they were wrong. This time, your dad came here to apologize to you. But you know his personality, he can't bring himself to apologize. Can you please not hold it against him?"
"He's old, already seventy, and his health has never been good. It's unknown how many years he can live. You and your brother are like this now. If he gets angry any more, I'm afraid something bad will happen. Mom has never begged you, but now I beg you, please don't be angry with your father, okay?"
"We don't actually have any other requests. We just want to live with you and see you often. That would satisfy us."
Zheng Huilin looked at Qin Zijin with anticipation.
Qin Zijin turned around and looked at Zheng Huilin, "Not good."
Zheng Huilin's expression froze. She didn't expect Qin Zijin to give such an answer.
Qin Zijin remained calm. "Dad's personality can't be changed. If you live here, we'll only have constant conflicts and our relationship will deteriorate. As the saying goes, getting along well is harder than living together. Conflicts and disagreements are inevitable when living together, especially since Dad and I both have strong personalities and neither of us is willing to admit defeat. Therefore, arguments are inevitable."
"So, the best way is for you to move out. When you want to see me in the future, just come over and visit. We can get along like relatives. This way we can avoid conflicts. You can also see me and my grandchildren. If you can accept this, I will arrange for someone to look for a house, and you can move out once we find one."
"If you can't accept it, then you can discuss it with your brother and see how he arranges it. I have no objection to whatever he arranges, and I will accept it."
After saying that, Qin Zijin left immediately.
Zheng Huilin opened her mouth, wanting to call Qin Zijin, but she didn't know what to say.
She understands the truth.
As someone who has been with Qin Haisheng for most of his life, no one knows Qin Haisheng's character better than her.
"Ajin." Qin Zijin returned to the room. Tang Can greeted Xu Mantang and others downstairs before coming upstairs.
Looking at Qin Zijin sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at Tang Siwan on the small bed, he couldn't help but call out.
"Are you back? Have Mr. Xu and the others finished their meal and left?" Qin Zijin came back to his senses and looked at Tang Shen.
"Well, why did you look so unhappy when you just left? Was it because of your parents' matter?" Tang Can went over and sat down next to Qin Zijin, putting his arm around her.
Qin Zijin leaned into his arms and sighed, "Do you think I'm unkind?"
"No, you have been very good to them." Tang Shen shook his head slightly.
It turned out that he also hoped that Qin Zijin could have a good relationship with Qin Haisheng and others. After all, in this world, they were Qin Zijin's parents and relatives, and blood was thicker than water, so this family relationship could not be severed.
But after learning about Qin Haisheng's character, he changed his mind.
Now he only hopes that Qin Zijin and the child can live a healthy and safe life. As for other things, they are not that important.
"These are her parents. I should actually be nicer to them. However, some people really have no feelings. I tried very hard to treat them as my parents, but it seems not so easy. Go back and ask someone to help see if there are any houses for sale nearby. If there are, buy one, preferably one with a yard, so that they can plant flowers and vegetables, raise fish and pets when they are free." Qin Zijin rubbed his eyebrows and felt tired just mentioning Qin Haisheng.
Downstairs, in the room.
Qin Haisheng had actually woken up a long time ago, and he heard everything Qin Zijin said, but he didn't open his eyes and just lay there quietly for more than an hour.
All the events of the past emerged in my mind one by one.
The once harmonious family of four, now it seems like everything has changed.
He didn't know what went wrong in the education he gave to Qin Zixuan and Qin Zijin since they were young, and why both children became so rebellious.
Zheng Huilin sat there sighing and wiping her tears over and over again.
After Xu Mantang and the others left, the house became dull and quiet again.
Until Tang Simeng and Tang Ruixuan came home from school.
Tang Simeng was in a good mood and hummed a little tune as she walked in, followed by a few followers.
Tang Ruixuan still had his hands in his pockets, looking like he didn't love anyone.
Tang Simeng dropped his schoolbag and took his friends upstairs to see his sister.
He still knocked on the door carefully, and made sure that Tang Siwan was not asleep before taking his friends in.
"Mom, my classmates want to come and see my sister." Tang Simeng said with a smile. She had already moved to the side of the crib and looked down at the cute pink ball.
Soon, five heads gathered around the crib, all with wide eyes, staring at the baby on the bed.
"Tang Simeng, your sister is really pretty. You didn't lie to us."
"She's much prettier than my sister. I want a sister as beautiful as her too. I'll go home and tell my mom to give me another sister!"
"I want one too! I want a sister as cute as Mengmeng!"
Several children were chattering non-stop, and Tang Siwan kept her eyes open, looking at them one by one. After looking around, she yawned and felt sleepy.
Seeing that her sister was sleepy, Tang Simeng quickly sent her friends away, "Let's go, sister is sleepy and needs to go to bed. Let's go to the small park outside to play."
"Okay, okay."
After a while, everyone dispersed, only Tang Ruixuan was still standing there. After everyone left, he came over to look at his sister.
Tang Siwan opened her eyes, looked at him, and yawned again.
Although I really want to play with my brother for a while, my little body is really too tired. This premature baby is too weak and I am not awake for many hours a day. I just eat and sleep all day.
Tang Siwan closed her eyes helplessly, deciding to wait until she grew up before playing with her brothers and sisters.
Tang Ruixuan stood there quietly, watching Tang Siwan fall asleep, and then left reluctantly.
"Xuanxuan seems to like his sister very much. Mengmeng will be jealous again when she sees this." Qin Zijin looked at Tang Ruixuan's back and couldn't help but smile and joked.
"Wanwan was just born after all, and he hasn't seen her yet, so he still cherishes his sister now. When Wanwan grows up, he will probably get annoyed with her." Tang Shen shook his head, seeing that it was getting late and it was time to prepare dinner.
Fortunately, Xu Qingfeng prepared a lot of dishes in the afternoon and put them in the kitchen. They only needed to be heated up and eaten, so he didn't have to work hard to cook.
Tang Can went downstairs to heat up the food. After it was done, he gave one portion to Qin Haisheng and Zheng Huilin, and then packed another portion and sent it upstairs to Qin Zijin.
