494 493: Complain

Kang Xiaoqiao looked coldly at the dignified woman in front of her, crying like a child.

She was indeed sad. However, when Kang Xiaoqiao thought of the time when the original owner was sick. If it were not for Kang Daqiao's meticulous care, she would have died a long time ago. Moreover, what she said was not fake.

A child who was already weak and did not have a mother to take care of her, how good could she be?

She had not even eaten mother's milk since birth. She grew up drinking goat's milk.

She didn't know how long she had cried. Kang Xiaoqiao's brain buzzed when she heard it. She couldn't help but frown and interrupt. "Mom?"

"Do you think you're worthy?"

Zhen Aiyin stopped crying when she heard this. She was stunned on the spot.

Kang Xiaoqiao said with disgust, "Are you worthy of being a mother?"

Zhen Aiyin thought of all the scenes when Kang Xiaoqiao would meet her, but she didn't expect Kang Xiaoqiao to talk to her like this. Every sentence poked at her heart.

Even if there was hatred, shouldn't all separated mother and son or mother and daughter meet each other with tears in their hands, talking about the years of hard work and rebuilding warmth?

Not to mention that Kang Xiaoqiao clearly knew her identity.

Although family ties were infinite, in this cold society, family ties also depended on identity. If Kang Xiaoqiao had not grown to this stage, would she have come to meet her? Perhaps she would, but she believed that this date might be when she was about to die.

Wasn't Kang Xiaoqiao in a situation where she needed to use her identity?

She had no choice but to try her best to please her. Even if she didn't regain her identity, she would still get a lot of benefits. However, Kang Xiaoqiao didn't play by the rules.

From the moment she entered the door, it was as if the other party didn't care about her at all. All the pain she said was to hurt and ridicule her.

Yes, sarcasm, naked sarcasm.

Wasn't it?

The other party actually asked her if she was fit to be a mother? Such a sharp and embarrassing question...

Zhen Aiyin took a long time to swallow her anger. Her expression changed several times, and in the end, she furrowed her brows tightly. Her face turned ugly, and she cried even louder.

"Wu... Xiaoqiao, scold me. It's fine if you hit me. Wu... It's mom who has let you down. I've let you suffer so much for so many years."

"But... but mom can't do anything about it. Mom has no other choice--"

Although Zhen Aiyin cried a little louder, she still didn't dare to speak or cry out loud, afraid that others would find out.

She endured and felt uneasy all the time. As she cried, she said, "Xiaoqiao, mom hasn't had it easy for so many years. Aren't I sad being a mother? Every time I dream in the middle of the night, mom always dreams of you crying and crying for mom. However, I can't carry you no matter how hard I try."

"Wu... it's mom who is useless. It's mom who is useless. She can't give birth to a son for the Miao family. Your father is a one-child, one-child--"

"If there was any way, mom wouldn't have taken the risk. When I gave birth to you back then, mom gave birth prematurely and had difficulty giving birth. The doctor said, the doctor said, I can't ever, ever get pregnant again..."

"Wu, you don't know how big of a blow this is to the Miao family and how big of a blow it was to me. Your grandmother, she, she had already found a woman for your father. She was just waiting, waiting to divorce me and marry her into the family to give birth to her grandchildren."

"Wu, I'm not afraid of being divorced. However, there are three older sisters in front of you, three older sisters. Children without a mother are suffering. If it weren't for me, what kind of life would they have? Your mother was terrified just thinking about it, and she couldn't even sleep at night."

"Xiaoqiao, I know. I've let you down. I've let you down, but... but who has a solution? In this damn world, who has a solution?"

Zhen Aiyin cried uncontrollably. She was really sad. How desperate was the Old Lady Miao back then?

She didn't care about her third daughter, Nianjie, who was still in her infancy. She followed Miao Zhibo into the army without hesitation. It was a bitter and cold place in the northeast. She was almost frozen to death. Her body hadn't recovered to begin with. This was simply adding insult to injury.

But she had to go. Old Madam Miao had arranged for that woman to be in Miao Zhibo's department. The two of them would see each other from head to toe, and one of them was scheming against her. What would she do then?

Old Madam Miao wanted to have a grandson, a grandson. Every day, she would scold her for being a hen that only knew how to give birth to money-losing goods. She couldn't even give birth to a baby, and she was still occupying the latrine.

Such rude words were worse than killing Zhen Aiyin, a well-educated lady. However, Old Madam Miao seemed to know that she would be in pain. She actually asked those village women to learn such vulgar words to scold her.

At that time, when Miao Zhibo was in the ministry, she had the intention to complain. However, Miao Zhibo had to believe her. Although the old lady hadn't read many books, she was from an aristocratic family. Even if she went to complain, she wouldn't be able to say it.

Therefore, she had no choice but to endure. She could only endure--

She also wanted to have a son. Who didn't want to have a son? However, she was pregnant with a daughter, and she was pregnant with a daughter. What could she do?

Zhen Aiyin didn't tell anyone about her years of unhappiness. She didn't expect that she would tell her daughter, whom she hadn't seen for many years. The more she told her, the sadder she became. She poured out all the bitterness that she had suffered for so many years. It seemed that she had no intention of stopping.

"Xiaoqiao, you don't know how powerful your grandmother is. I really can't do anything about her. I--"

Before she could finish, Kang Xiaoqiao waved her hand. She didn't feel sorry or sympathy at all. Instead, she said impatiently, "Okay, you don't have to say anymore. What's the purpose of all this?"

"It's just to find an excuse for yourself."

"Is it to sacrifice one of me to save your family? So, I was sacrificed--"

Zhen Aiyin was interrupted by Kang Xiaoqiao. Her tears were still flowing, but she said in surprise, "That's your biological sister, your family, you--"

Hearing that, Kang Xiaoqiao covered her mouth and laughed loudly. She laughed so hard that her face turned red. When she had enough of laughing, she covered her face and said with a trembling voice, "My biological sister? My family?"

"So, I should be sacrificed, right?"

Zhen Aiyin was stunned by Kang Xiaoqiao's question, but Kang Xiaoqiao continued to laugh coldly. "My biological sister, hehe, how interesting."

"My biological sisters used the sacrifice of me to live a good life. They ate well every day, wore well, received higher education, and lived an elegant life. Some people loved and doted on them, and some people cared for them. But, did they ever think of me?"

"Did they ever think that all of their lives were bought by drinking my blood and eating my meat?"
