"You want me to accept a necklace worth more than a hundred thousand? What kind of person do you think I am? Chu Yunxiu, are you going to sell me to repay you for raising me? Let me tell you, I've had enough of you. I'm in charge of my own feelings. You don't have to worry about me in the future. Aren't you just crying and threatening to hang yourself? Fine, why don't you die for me? If you die, I won't drag you down with me. At most, I'll die with you. I've lived enough anyway. "
Ling Yun finally exploded, shouting hysterically. Her face was red, and her tears fell like rain.
Chu Yunxiu opened her mouth wide. She never thought that Ling Yun's reaction would be so intense. She was tongue-tied as she looked at her lifeless eyes. Her heart turned cold.
However, the overbearing habit that she had developed over a long period of time still made her angry. She scolded, "I've really wasted my time raising you as a daughter. How dare you talk to your mother like this. What's so good about that little guy? You're obsessed with him. I'm not afraid to tell you that I've already driven him away. He'll never come back. If you insist on being with him, I'll never acknowledge you as my daughter again. "
"Okay, so that's how it is. I was wondering why he would leave. Since that's the case, I have nothing else to say!"
Ling Yun knelt down with a "plop". Without saying anything, she kowtowed three times. The kowtows were so heavy that her forehead was already dripping with blood.
"What are you doing? Are you crazy …"
Chu Yunxiu was shocked and hurried forward to help her up.
However, Ling Yun was expressionless. She shook off her hand and stood up by herself. She said coldly, "I'm an unfilial daughter. I'll repay you for raising me with three kowtows. I can't afford to repay anything else. I can only repay you in my next life. From now on, I'm no longer your daughter, and you're no longer my mother. From now on, my affairs have nothing to do with you."
"You …" Chu Yunxiu pointed at Ling Yun with a trembling finger. Her eyes reddened as she slapped Ling Yun across the face. "Are you crazy? How dare you say something like that?" She scolded angrily.
"Chu Yunxiu, I'm no longer your daughter. You have no right to hit me. You have no right to use my happiness to exchange for your wealth. I'm leaving. Just pretend that you never had a daughter like me."
Ling Yun said disheartenedly as he turned around and walked out.
"Come back here. How can you face your father like this? How can you face the ancestors of the Ling family?"
Chu Yunxiu shouted at the top of her lungs with tears streaming down her face.
"If my father was still alive, he would never sell his daughter's happiness in exchange for the so-called glory and wealth. Chu Yunxiu, I really despaired of you. Please, let me go. Do you know how much I hate you? You don't know, you only have money in your eyes. If you were to go bankrupt in exchange for father's life, would you be willing? "
Ling Yun smiled bitterly. His eyes were filled with unspeakable pain and disappointment. "You definitely won't be willing. In your eyes, no one is more important than money. Do you know that? I hate that I'm your daughter. I hate that I've been accommodating and tolerating you over and over again, resulting in today's bitter outcome. I was wrong, I was really wrong. I shouldn't have agreed to your unreasonable request. I shouldn't have agreed to go to that damned birthday party. Standing in that bright and luxurious hall, I didn't feel like a princess at all, but a prostitute who sold her happiness in exchange for riches and honor.
Prostitute! "
"What nonsense are you talking about? You don't understand your mother at all. Everything I do is for your own good. As long as your father can come back, I'm willing to lose ten years of my life, let alone go bankrupt. Everything I do is for your own good. You are my daughter. How can I hurt you? I just want you to live a good life and not have to run around for daily necessities. "
Chu Yunxiu held Ling Yun and burst into tears. She was really scared. She had never seen her daughter like this.
Ling Yun slowly and firmly pushed her away. Her tears never stopped and had wet the evening dress in front of her chest. She said bleakly,
"I'm tired. I'll stay here for one night. Tomorrow, I'll find a place to move away. Don't keep saying that it's for my happiness. You don't know what happiness is at all."
Ling Yun gently stroked the old but familiar dining table and looked around reluctantly. That person seemed to have never left, watching her quietly in a corner.
She closed her eyes and let her tears flow. She murmured as if she was sleep-talking,
"In my eyes, happiness is actually very simple. I don't need a lot of money, as long as I have enough; the house doesn't need to be too big or luxurious, as long as I can live in it; it doesn't matter if I have a car to walk in; it doesn't matter if I don't have a car. Two people can take the bus or the subway together. As long as two people can stay together every day, they don't even need to talk. They can feel each other's feelings with a look; they can feel each other's existence with a slight breath; they can know each other's thoughts with a smile, an expression, a movement; they can know each other's thoughts with knowing each other, relying on each other and being happy. That's the happiness I want!"
Chu Yunxiu stared at Ling Yun in a daze as if she had never known her daughter. She carefully tasted her daughter's definition of happiness and remembered that it was because of her insatiable greed that forced her husband to leave home and never come back. Confusion and regret arose in her heart. She seemed to be talking to herself and asking, "I just want to live a better life. Is this also wrong?"
"You are not wrong. It is always others who are wrong. You impose your will on others and never consider other people's feelings. You always think that others want the same as you. But in this world, there are many things more important than money, such as family, friendship, love, dignity … Compared with material life, these are the most precious spiritual wealth." Ling Yun's heart was throbbing, and her face was full of sorrow.
"Ding Ning is a very noble person, but you have never thought highly of him from the beginning. You always think that he is poor and has no future. When you meet him, you either sneer at him or force him to ask for rent or warn him not to have any ideas about me. You have never given him a good face. Four years ago, you fainted because of nephritis, and it was Ding Ning who cured you and removed the root of the disease. Three years ago, you had cholecystitis, and it was also him who cured you. Last year, you had breast cancer. After Ding Ning found out about it, he was afraid that you would be worried, so he asked me to buy sleeping pills for you to take every day. He treated you night and night. For three months, he stayed up all night to give you acupuncture treatment. He also had to go to class during the day. Just because of this, you still scolded him as a lazy pig. These are all serious diseases worth mentioning. Those minor diseases such as colds and fevers are all cured by him. But he never let me tell you, lest you think that he is deliberately flattering you. He works hard all day, but what does he want? He has no mother since he was a child, so he wants to feel the warmth of a family. Even if you just don't want to be so lonely on New Year's Eve and invite him to have a meal like giving alms to a beggar, he is very grateful and treats you wholeheartedly. But what about you? How do you treat him? "
Chu Yunxiu's face changed dramatically. She recalled that every time she felt uncomfortable, she would sleep soundly that night and be full of energy the next morning.
Last year, there was indeed a lump in her chest, which was dull and painful. She planned to go to the hospital for examination the next day. After sleeping that night, she didn't feel the pain anymore, so she didn't go to the hospital.
Calculating the approximate time, it was almost exactly three months, and the lump in her chest disappeared completely.
Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that she had not been sick since Ding Ning moved here. As long as she felt a little uncomfortable, she would be fine after waking up.
It should be known that she had been weak since she was a child. Since her husband disappeared, she had been seriously ill every three days and had a minor illness every five days. She had never stopped taking various kinds of medicine. It was a miracle that she was so healthy in the past five years.
She thought it was because she had strengthened her exercise that she didn't get sick again. Until now she knew that it was all thanks to Ding Ning.
In particular, she shuddered with fear when she thought that she had breast cancer. Even in the early stage, it was not so easy to cure. There were few cases of cutting off the uterus to prevent the spread of cancer cells.
Even if the hospital could cure it without cutting off the uterus, the medical expenses alone would probably be an astronomical figure.
Thinking that Ding Ning had silently sacrificed for her over the years, but she had always treated him like that, Chu Yunxiu felt her face burning and ashamed.
She didn't doubt that Ling Yun would lie to her, because she knew that her daughter was not a person who liked to lie. Besides, cholecystitis and nephritis were her old problems. As long as she went to the hospital for an examination, everything would be clear. Ling Yun's tears flowed down again.
Lingyun's tears flowed down again. "He is only 22 years old this year. He left his hometown and came to Ninghai alone. He didn't have a mother since he was a child, and now his father is missing. He can't get in touch with them for five years. Although he smiles every day and looks carefree, in fact, his heart is more bitter than anyone else. He regards you as his family, but you cruelly drive him away. Don't you feel guilty?"
"Yunyun, I'm sorry. I didn't know that Little Chi … Ding Ning had done so much for our family. It was my fault before. I promise you that I won't interfere in your love affairs in the future. You can do whatever you want and be with whoever you want. Even if you go to get a marriage certificate tomorrow, I won't object."
Ling Yun's words were like a blow to the head, making Chu Yunxiu feel ashamed. She also thought it through. Her daughter had grown up and had her own ideas, although she still hoped that her daughter could marry a better man.
But after thinking about it carefully, Ding Ning could even cure her breast cancer. His medical skills must be excellent. Even if he worked as a doctor honestly, his income would not be too bad, and his social status would be very high.
Although it was unlikely that he would be as rich as Liu Junwei in this life, it was also good to have such a son-in-law. At least, he could guarantee the health of the family.
The most important thing was that she knew that Ding Ning was really good to Ling Yun. Otherwise, with his pride, how could he tolerate them so much?
"Are you serious?" Lingyun stopped her tears and looked at her incredulously with her eyes wide open.
"Of course, or what? Do you really have to force my daughter to renounce her mother-daughter relationship with me? "
Chu Yunxiu said with a hint of complaint and reproach. "Mom, I'm sad.
"Mom, I'm sad. Liu Junwei sent me back. My feet hurt, and I was holding his arm. Ding Ning saw it and misunderstood me. You don't know how ugly his face was. He looked at me as if I was a stranger. I felt so sad." Liu Junwei said.
Ling Yun threw herself into Chu Yunxiu's arms like a spoiled child and held her slender waist. As she spoke, tears of grievance were about to fall down again.
