Chen Jiaxuan persuaded Mi Xaing 'er to go to America and promised to give her the best life there was.
It was no wonder … With Chen Yaozhong's current financial status, Mi Xaing 'er could indeed live like a princess if she went to America.
As a mother, Tang Xiling could reunite with her family and see her daughter again. On the other hand, her daughter could have a bright future. Of course, she yearned for it … Although she didn't say it explicitly, it was quite encouraging.
Mi Xaing 'er looked at her and took a deep breath. "Mom, I want to say something."
"…"
"If I could choose easily, if the situation permits … I would certainly want to see my biological father. But now … just like how you are willing to go to the ends of the world for love, my husband is here. My children and my home are all here. I can't abandon them!"
"…"
"No matter what a better life there is in America? In my heart, nothing is more important than Yun Jingting and my children. So, I only have one answer: I'm sorry, I won't go to America with you! Mom, I still wish you all the best. I hope you'll be happy! "
Tang Xiling lowered her head and didn't speak … After a long time, she muttered these words, "Xiang 'er, I'm sorry."
Seeing that things had come to this, Chen Jiaxuan didn't need to stay any longer. He stood up and said, "I'll make the arrangements immediately. My father's health is very bad. The sooner we go, the better. If Auntie Tang doesn't mind, we'll leave at 6 a.m. tomorrow."
Tang Xiling nodded silently … That was the only way.
Chen Jiaxuan said goodbye and left.
Mi Xaing 'er walked him out of the door. When she turned around …
Xu Jingya blocked her on the stairs and asked in a low voice, "Girl, you … you …"
She was usually a very straightforward person, but now she suddenly became hesitant. Mi Xaing 'er could guess what she wanted to ask … She smiled and answered directly, "Old Madam, don't worry. I don't plan to go to America! What will my mom choose? That's her business. I have my reasons to stay. "
When Xu Jingya heard this, the stone in her heart was instantly put down.
She sighed softly and said, "To be honest, I was a little worried just now. After all, America is very tempting. Life in China isn't as good as over there. The policies have been liberalized and many people want to go there. Besides, you have a father who's as rich as a country. That means … a better life is waiting for you over there. I'm afraid that you can't resist the temptation. "
"…"
Xu Jingya complained softly, "This stinky tiger, he didn't show up at the critical moment. Is he really that busy with work? His wife was going to go to America? How could he sit still without worry? .. He should have come back to keep an eye on you. "
Mi Xiang 'er doubled over in laughter. "Staring at me? As a mother, how could you say something like that? . Don't you know him? Is your son's's? "
She knew very well … Her tone was a little proud. "A tiger? If I'm going to jump into a fire pit, he'll be the first to come. He'll definitely hug my leg and not let go. But I'm going to America. The more I want to leave, the more he won't show his face. He won't stop me. "
She was right!
Yun Laohu wouldn't "hinder" his wife's "bright future."
Xu Jingya glared at Mi Xaing 'er and pinched her arm. "Shameless! Sigh, I'm curious! What kind of drug did you give my son? Why does he believe in you so wholeheartedly? He didn't stop his wife from leaving. What kind of husband is he? He's too lenient with you. "
She pursed her lips and pretended to be angry. "When he comes, I'll have to teach him a lesson. He can't spoil his wife too much. He has to discipline her when he needs to!"
Mi Xaing 'er smiled and pushed her into the house. "Discipline! Discipline! Discipline! I'm scared of your son! Your son is the best! Is this okay? "
Xu Jingya pretended to be serious and nodded. "That's more like it! A man should have the final say in a family! "
Before she could finish speaking …
Little Fengshou, who was in the bedroom, started crying.
Mi Xaing 'er wasn't in the mood to chat anymore and quickly ran over.
Xu Jingya thought for a while and went straight to the living room.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw Tang Xiling sitting on the chair and crying quietly … When she saw her, she quickly wiped her face with her sleeve and stood up slowly. "Sister Xu, the child must be crying. I'll go take a look."
Xu Jingya opened her arms and stopped her. "Mi Xaing 'er is here. She's taking care of Fengshou. It's okay! Have a seat! I want to talk to you! "
Tang Xiling's eyes were still red … She probably didn't want to show too much emotion in front of her in-laws, so she turned her body slightly and sat down on the chair.
Xu Jingya looked at her silently … and her heart softened. The words she wanted to say just now turned into a sigh. "You don't mind if I call you sister, do you?"
Tang Xiling still didn't look up and only said, "Mm."
Xu Jingya sat opposite her and unconsciously drew circles on the coffee table with her fingers. "The first time I saw Mi Xaing 'er was on the train to Shanghai. I remember very clearly that she was sitting by the window. Her face was pale and she looked like she couldn't sit still. At that time … she was showing signs of a miscarriage. The doctor told her not to move around casually!"
Tang Xiling nodded gratefully. "Thank you for taking care of her these two years. If it weren't for you, Xiang 'er and the child wouldn't be living so well … I'm grateful!"
Xu Jingya waved her hand lightly. "You don't have to thank me! I'll still say the same thing. People get along with each other because of fate! Xiang 'er and I don't have to take care of each other. These two years, she's also been my biggest spiritual support. Through daily interactions, I really like her and feel sorry for her … I feel more sorry for her than I do for my own daughter. "
"…"
Xu Jingya made a big turnaround. "Because she came out of a difficult situation, she's exceptionally obedient and sensible. She's also a filial daughter, so she never says anything over the top. But what I want to say is … as a mother, have you ever considered your child's well-being? "
Tang Xiling lowered her head and didn't say a word.
Xu Jingya continued, "I don't mean to blame you. Everyone has the right to choose their own life. But when you went to see your husband in America, you left the young Mi Xaing 'er behind. Later, you secretly sent international letters …"
Tang Xiling couldn't take it anymore. She raised her head and said, "Sister Xu, to tell you the truth, sometimes I also feel that I'm an incompetent mother!"
She pursed her lips in grievance. "But can you understand how I feel? I've loved a man since I was 14 years old. I've loved him for 30 years. I've been waiting for him without looking away. If I don't meet him, it'll be the biggest regret in my life … a regret that I won't be able to die in peace. "
"…"
"Maybe I've really let Mi Xaing 'er down, but I don't have a choice …"
Xu Jingya didn't think much of it. "If I were you, I'd …"
Tang Xiling interrupted her softly. "But you're not me. Everyone's way of thinking is different, and the position of feelings in their hearts is also different. Just like you … Forgive me for being blunt, but didn't you abandon your child for your own reasons? I don't mean to blame you. What I want to say is that all of this is a tragedy caused by the times. You can't simply judge who's right and who's wrong, and who's loved more? Who's loved less? "
Xu Jingya snorted coldly. "Yes, I did abandon my child! But I abandoned them for their own good! Without me by their side, they'll have a better future! Not only did I abandon my child, but I also abandoned my husband, my marriage, and my status as the Commander's wife … I also abandoned them all! I have a clear conscience, and I'm calm and collected! "
"…"
"What about you? If you leave this time, what if something happens to you along the way? Have you thought about it? Mi Xaing 'er has just entered university. You'll have a very bad influence on her, and you'll even ruin her life! "
"…"
"I don't care how beautiful the future you promised her is. I also believe that one day, maybe you'll create a warm and comfortable home for her in America. But what about now?"
Tang Xiling was, after all, the eldest daughter of a landlord family, and her temper was not small. After being reprimanded, of course, she became stubborn and straightened her neck. "I'm sorry, no matter what you say, you can't change my decision … I've already thought about it. When I reach America, I'll bring Mi Xaing 'er and her son over. Even if Xiang' er is expelled here, she can still go to university in America!"
"…"
"I'm grateful to you and Jingting for taking care of Mi Xaing 'er when she was in trouble. If you're willing to come to America, I'll also welcome you with open arms! However, no matter what, I won't watch my daughter continue to suffer here! "
