"I think you should give up on that idea. You were so polite to Xiaxia the other day when our daughter came home. You even asked her to call you Auntie Song. Do you think she won't have any feelings for you?" Huo Jinyan began to analyze the situation rationally.
Song Ning could not help but smile bitterly when she heard this.
"I was infuriated by the way she spoke that day. I knew Yaoyao came back from the countryside, yet I deliberately emphasized it in front of her. If outsiders heard what she said, they would probably look down on Yaoyao. Do you think Yaoyao would feel good if I didn't speak harshly?"
She paused before she continued. "We raised Xiaxia since she was little. Although she was mistaken, I still treat her like my own. Don't I feel bad when I see her suffering?"
Even though they were both children, Song Ning could not deny that she cared more about her biological daughter's feelings than her biological daughter and her adopted daughter. They were related by blood.
Moreover, she had raised Lu Xia for 17 years. She had never suffered any grievances in the Huo family. On the other hand, her biological daughter was born into a wealthy family, but in reality, she was abandoned in a remote county by the cruel couple of the Lu family.
Although Lu Xia's grandmother had been really nice to her since she had raised her, her daughter must have been very lonely in her childhood due to the harsh environment she grew up in and the fact that she was left behind.
Song Ning's heart ached every time she thought about this. Now that her daughter was back, all she wanted to do was to make up for the 17 years she had missed.
Huo Jinyan could not help wrapping his arms around his wife's shoulders when he saw her blaming herself. He comforted her. "Yaoyao is a very obedient child. No one will dislike her, not even our eldest son."

Huo Yao went to visit Yang Qiuhua over the weekend.
Yang Qiuhua lived in an apartment for the elderly in the city. The neighborhood was nice, and there were no schools or shopping malls nearby. It was very quiet and suitable for the elderly.
Although He Xiaoman was mean, petty, and pretentious, she treated her biological mother well.
Huo Yao had called Yang Qiuhua before she came, so the door opened shortly after she rang the doorbell.
Yang Qiuhua's eyes turned red when she saw her granddaughter. She hurriedly pulled Huo Yao into the apartment.
The area of the house was not small, and the decorations were also very good. Although there were all kinds of furniture and appliances, it inexplicably gave people a very cold feeling.
Huo Yao glanced around before looking away. The old lady went to get some fruits and a glass of water. She looked as nervous as a child.
"Grandma, don't be so busy. Sit down and let's have a good talk."
Huo Yao pulled him to the couch.
Yang Qiuhua's eyes landed on Huo Yao's face. After some time, she said, "You don't seem to have lost any weight. It seems like your biological parents treat you well."
"Uh huh. They wanted to visit you, but I didn't want to disturb you, so I declined," said Huo Yao with a smile.
"Another day. Let's invite them to our house. Today, we can have a good gathering." Yang Qiuhua's wrinkled face was filled with joy, but her lower eyelids were gray, so she didn't seem to be in a particularly good state of mind.
Huo Yao reached out to hold the old lady's hand. She casually placed her fingertips on her wrist and asked casually. "Haven't you been resting well lately?"
"No, I had a good rest." Yang Qiuhua seemed to be afraid that she would be worried and said hurriedly.
In fact, ever since she came here, she had been suffering from insomnia for the whole night.
