For giving birth to me.
"Yi Xuan, what nonsense are you talking about?" Father He scolded.
Freya frowned. She was afraid that Qiao Qiao would be hurt again, so she shielded her behind her. However, Qiao Qiao felt that there was no need for them to do so.
Faced with such a crazy Mother He, if it had been in the past, she would have tried her best to find fault with herself. She would have felt that she had done something wrong, which was why she could not win Mother He's favor.
But now, Qiao Qiao felt that it didn't matter.
She had already experienced the pain of losing her child. What else was unbearable?
Now that she saw her Mother He, who was hysterical and gradually going crazy, she only felt that she was a very pitiful woman. Facing the fear of her husband and son being taken away, this reserved and delicate woman completely lost her rationality.
Perhaps, without her existence, Mother He would not have become like this, right?
Qiao Qiao sighed and walked over from behind Freya. She looked straight at her Mother He, whose eyes were filled with hatred and anger, and said calmly, "Mom, how much hatred do you have for me to say such hurtful curses?"
"I wish you had never existed in this world!"
Mother He said fiercely with a ferocious expression.
Qiaoqiao's expression didn't change in the slightest as she continued, "I've thought about it for a long time. Ever since I married into the He family, I've always given in to you, but you've always disliked me. I thought it was because of the disparity between our statuses. Now that my true identity has been made public, and there's more or less the gimmick of the royal bloodline, I thought your attitude towards me would change. Who would have thought that you'd become even worse.
"Hahaha, royal bloodline? Your Highness? " Mother He shook her head and sneered, "No, no, even if you succeed the throne in the future and become the Empress, so what? Our Family He doesn't need a noble daughter-in-law like you. We can't afford it! "
"Yi Xuan! Qiao Qiao is already our Family He's daughter-in-law. What's the point of saying that? "Father He shouted angrily.
Mother He was extremely disappointed when she saw that Father He had repeatedly defended Qiao Qiao and her mother. She smiled bitterly and asked sternly, "How can it be meaningless? You don't know that this woman lied to us. She … "
"What is everyone doing here?"
A slightly cold voice sounded in the hall, interrupting Mother He's words.
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice. He Shaochen took off his frosty windbreaker and walked over.
He glanced at Mother He and asked, "Mom, what did you want to say just now?"
His voice wasn't loud and was very calm, but Mother He couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine. It was as if all the blood in her body had frozen. She looked away in embarrassment and said half-heartedly, "Nothing."
He Shaochen didn't continue to pester her. He nodded at Freya and then took Qiao Qiao's slightly cold hand. He said calmly, "Why is your hand so cold? Didn't I tell you to wear more clothes? "
"Shaochen …"
Qiao Qiao bit her lip and was about to speak when He Shaochen covered her mouth with his finger. He glanced at the table and said to everyone, "You were eating just now, right? If you have anything to say, say it later. "
Mother He couldn't bear to eat at the same table as the mother and daughter. "Shaochen, you must …"
"Mom, you haven't eaten yet, right? Why don't we eat together?" He Shaochen directly interrupted Mother He's next words. He said to the servant waiting outside, "Bring two more sets of bowls and chopsticks."
The tense situation was resolved by He Shaochen's few words.
At the dinner table, everyone fully adhered to the traditional virtue of not talking when eating and sleeping. It was extremely quiet.
During the meal, before Mother He could say anything, He Shaochen called out to Mother He. "Mom, I have something to tell you."
Obviously, he wanted to avoid the topic.
Mother He always had no resistance to her son. She looked at the three people in the hall and seemed to be conflicted. But she still followed He Shaochen to the study upstairs.
Only Freya, Qiao Qiao, and Father He were left downstairs.
"Qiao Qiao, are you okay? Your mother-in-law's temper is like this. You've been wronged. "Father He was the first to express his feelings. After saying that, he glanced at Freya discreetly.
But the latter didn't pay attention to his actions.
Qiao Qiao shook her head and said, "I've known about Mom's temper since a long time ago. This is still bearable."
"It's been hard on you."
"It's okay."
…
"Qiao Qiao, if you don't mind, live with me."
Freya suddenly said.
This was the most reasonable decision she made after seeing how Mother He treated Qiao Qiao. She held Qiao Qiao's hand and said seriously, "I may not have a comfortable environment like Family He, and the house is not as big as here. But at least I won't let you suffer any grievances there. No one will gossip about what you do."
She really didn't want to see Qiao Qiao sad like this.
Qiao Qiao looked at Freya seriously. This woman had never fulfilled her duty as a mother. She had been ignoring her for more than twenty years, but now, she really wanted to be good to her.
If she lived with her, it might be much easier.
But in the end, she shook her head. There was only one reason. "Shaochen is here, so I won't leave."
"Qiao Qiao!"
"Freya, thank you for your kindness, but I don't want to leave Shaochen. I've already lost my child. I don't want to be separated from my husband."
Freya's heart skipped a beat.
This scene was so similar. After Luo Vino's death, she sent Qiao Qiao to the Qiao family for convenience and let them raise her. At that time, did she think about how Qiao Qiao felt?
How could she bear to leave her child?
"I'm sorry."
Freya apologized in a low voice.
Qiao Qiao shook her head. She smiled calmly and said, "You don't have to apologize to me. On the contrary, I'm very grateful to you. Thank you for giving birth to me and letting me meet Shaochen."
Freya's tears immediately flowed out of her eyes. She covered her mouth, afraid that she would cry out loud.
After a long time.
She said in a hoarse voice, "Since you've already made up your mind, I'll respect your decision. I'll take my leave today. Goodbye."
With that, she hurried out of the house.
Father He quickly said, "Let me see you out."
With that, he turned to Qiao Qiao and said, "Qiao Qiao, you should also rest early. Please don't mind what happened today."
Before he finished speaking, he chased after her.
Qiao Qiao saw Father He's anxious look and smiled coldly. She muttered to herself, "Dad, it's too easy to see through your thoughts."
