Chapter 617 -617: I Also Want to Pick Up Mother
“Dad, don’t cry, we’ll bring mom back tomorrow!” Seeing Qiao Changshun cry, Qiao Xiaomai hurriedly comforted him.
“Dad, our lives are good now, and the future will be full of blessings.” Tong Sanlang also comforted him.
Qiao Changshun sniffed, covered his face with his hand, and limped back into the house.
Even though life is now better, it doesn’t erase the hardships of the past. How could he hold back his tears when thinking about Zhuang Lühe’s past decade with him…
It’s his fault, all his fault!
Qiao Changshun went into the house, and soon suppressed cries were heard. Qiao Xiaomai pursed her lips, thinking of Zhuang Lühe’s trials in this life, a sour feeling arose in her nose, and tears began to well in her eyes.
She bent down to pick up Qiao Dami, walked a few steps to the willow tree, and sat down on the bench.
Qiao Dami hands clinging to her neck, asked softly, “Sis, mom must have suffered a lot out there, right?”
Qiao Xiaomai nodded heavily, “When you grow up, you have to treat mom well.”
“I know, I always listen to mom.”
“Good boy.” Qiao Xiaomai patted his little back.
“I want to go and get mom tomorrow too.” Qiao Dami spoke with a whiny tone, trying to act cute.
“It’s too far away, even by ox cart it’s half a day. We’ll have to spend the night outside.” The road conditions between Beiyang County and Huai’an County are not good, full of potholes, and the ox cart moves slowly.
Of course, the main reason is that she doesn’t want Qiao Dami to see the real situation.
She didn’t want those clear eyes to see too much sorrow. freewebnσvel.cѳm
“Then if you, dad, and Tong Brother are all gone, I’ll be alone.” Qiao Dami pouted his little mouth, looking unhappy.
“Well…what about having grandpa come to stay with you, how about that?” Qiao Xiaomai offered.
“No, I just want to go with you guys.” Qiao Dami twisted his small body like a twist bread stick, rolling nonstop in Qiao Xiaomai’s arms.
“Why not just take him with us then, and not let him enter the village when we get there.” Tong Sanlang suggested.
Qiao Dami wasn’t familiar with Qiao Qinghe either. If he was forced to stay with Qiao Qinghe, he would certainly be scared.
After thinking for a bit, Qiao Xiaomai said, “That could work.”
Tong Brother is the best! Upon hearing Qiao Xiaomai agree, Qiao Dami began to giggle. He wriggled his way out of Qiao Xiaomai’s embrace and ran over to hug Tong Sanlang’s leg.
Seeing this, Qiao Xiaomai was both amused and annoyed, “You little ingrate.”
Tong Sanlang chuckled, lifted Qiao Dami, pinched his chubby cheek, and changed the topic.
He and Qiao Xiaomai discussed what to take for the trip tomorrow. Soon it was evening, and Qiao Xiaomai went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Qiao Changshun’s eyes were red and swollen, and he couldn’t eat anything. He went straight to sleep.
Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang took Qiao Dami home.
The night passed without a word. The next day, before dawn, Qiao Xiaomai got up. She cooked ten scallion pancakes as travel food, and also filled a clay pot with enough water for two days. Then, riding the ox cart, she went to find Qiao Changshun.
Qiao Changshun’s eyes were red and swollen, with red bloodshot in them. Clearly, he hadn’t slept a wink all night.
Without saying much, Qiao Xiaomai waited for Qiao Zhaodi, Qiao Yindi, and the workers to come. She explained about their trip for the next two days, “We’ve found out where my mom is. She’s working hard outside, and it hasn’t been easy for her. Dad and I are going to bring her back.”
She insisted that Zhuang Lühe’s running away was because she couldn’t stand the torment of the Sun Family and had to work outside to get away. Whether others believed it or not, or whatever they said behind her back, that’s what she claimed.
