Grandpa He coaxed in a low voice: Baby, be good!

Bai Chen and Xue'er got engaged. At the dinner table, Bai Xuan suggested, "Dad, Mom, we haven't had a wedding in a long time. My second brother's engagement is such a big event. Why don't we pick an auspicious day and have a feast to make it more lively?"

"I agree. Our family has indeed been keeping a low profile in recent years. Chenchen, Xueer, what do you think?" Father Bai asked the two children.

Xue'er looked at Bai Chen somewhat embarrassedly. Bai Chen could understand Xue'er. She was still very inferior and afraid to face an upper-class banquet like the Bai family's. Moreover, Liu's mother's current condition was indeed not suitable for attending the banquet.

Considering Xue'er's concerns, Bai Chen said, "Dad, Mom, I think we should just forget it! It's fine if we just keep it to ourselves. I'm not a business celebrity, so there's no need! Xue'er and I want to wait until the actual wedding to hold a big banquet!"

"That's so unfair to Xueer!" said Bai's mother.

"I don't feel wronged, aunt. Chen is thinking about me. You know the situation of my family. I am afraid of bringing shame to the Bai family, so please give me some time with my uncle. I will improve myself as soon as possible." Xue'er said embarrassedly.

"Yes! I don't know where Xue'er's father is fooling around. It would be embarrassing for Xue'er to be without a father in such an important occasion. Why don't we just follow the child's wishes? Don't worry, I, as a mother, don't care about these. As long as Chenchen treats Xue'er well, that's enough. Besides, Xue'er is only in her teens, and it's not good to spread the news of her engagement." Mother Liu said with a confused memory. The only memory she had was that her husband abandoned her and her daughter to escape gambling debts, and now she didn't know where he was.

"Mom, let's just say it, just pretend that I don't have a father." Xue'er felt very sad when she heard what her mother said. Other fathers would go through fire and water for their children, but her father was so selfish as to push her into the fire. She had completely given up on him, but her mother always brought it up.

Seeing her daughter's sad expression, Liu's mother also advised: "Xue'er, Mom won't mention him anymore. Let's just treat him as dead. Mom will accompany you in the future."

"Well, and our Bai family will all be your relatives from now on. Chenchen's father is your father." Bai's mother also said.

"Okay, thank you uncle and aunt, I..." Xue'er said with emotion.

"Let's not talk about it anymore. It doesn't matter if we don't have an engagement banquet. Let's make the wedding banquet grand. Xue'er, mother-in-law, we don't want to think about those unhappy things. Come, eat more vegetables..." said Bai's mother.

"Ah."

So everyone had lunch in a lively atmosphere. Xue'er chatted with Bai's mother for a while. Bai Chen and Xue'er were going to send Liu Nu back to the nursing home, so they left. Before leaving, Bai's mother took Xue'er's hand and told her, "Come back often when you have time."

"Okay, we'll be back as soon as Chen Yi has a rest, and you can also come to our place!" Xue'er said.

After Bai Chen took Xue'er and Bai's mother away from the Bai family, Xue'er said to Liu's mother, "Mom, why don't you stay with us tonight!"

"No, my old sisters will miss me, I'd better go back!" said Liu's mother.

"Then don't you miss me? We haven't had a heart-to-heart talk for a long time." Xue'er said coquettishly while hugging her mother's arm.

"You're so old but still so clingy to your mother, aren't you ashamed? By the way, Xue'er, what job do you do now? Are you quitting your original job cleaning the bar?" As Liu's mother spoke, her memory became confused again. She had a clearer memory of the past, but some memories had been lost.

"I haven't done that job for a long time. I'm working as Chen's maid now." Xue'er replied.

"It's the mistress, not the maid." Bai Chen corrected.

"When did it happen? How come Mom doesn't know about it?" Liu's mother asked in surprise.

Xue'er and Bai Chen looked at each other, and Bai Chen nodded to encourage her. Xue'er was silent for a while, then said, "Mom, don't you feel like there are a lot of things you don't know?"

"That's right. Why do I feel like you've grown up all of a sudden? And I don't even know when you started dating. By the way, when did you pay off the debt left by your wicked father?" asked Liu's mother. In fact, these questions had been on her mind for a long time, but she didn't know how to ask them.

Since the child brought it up today, she just said it out loud.

"Mom, promise not to get angry first, and I'll tell you." Xue'er said.

"Silly child, I've been through all these years since your father left behind a pile of debts and disappeared. What's there to be angry about? Tell me! Child, mom always feels that she can't keep up with your pace recently, but she doesn't know where the problem lies." Liu's mother said again.

"Actually, Mom, you have lost some of your memory." Xue'er said tentatively.

"How is that possible?" Liu's mother asked in surprise.

"It's true, Mom. Do you remember when you became disconnected from me?" Xueer asked.

"I think it started in the hospital!" recalled Liu's mother.

"Well, Mom, do you know how you ended up in the hospital?" Xueer asked.

"Can't remember."

Xue Er sighed and said, "You committed suicide by taking pills and were rescued. Your brain nerves were damaged and you lost some of your memories."

"Suicide? Why? Did your father do something evil again? Tell me quickly, child." Liu's mother asked in shock.

"Mom, don't get excited and I'll tell you." Xue'er said worriedly.

"Okay, okay, you tell me, I promise I won't get excited." Mother Liu said anxiously.

"Mom, do you remember that you had depression?" Xueer asked.

"I have an impression, but it shouldn't be a big deal!" Mother Liu recalled carefully.

"Before, the pressure in our lives was increasing, and your condition became more and more serious, to the point where you had suicidal tendencies. Later, our income increased, and we paid off your debts, and you gradually got better. Then he came back and stimulated you, and that's when you became ill." Xueer said simply.

"He, your dad is back?"

"Well, he owed gambling debts outside again, and came back to sell me to pay off the debt. Fortunately, Chen saved me..." Xueer said in a low voice.

"This guy who killed Tiandao is so heartless that he could do such a thing. Where is he now? I want to ask him, has his conscience been eaten by a dog? I want to curse him to have a bad end..." Liu's mother cursed angrily.

"Mom, mom, don't be angry, he has not had a good end."

"What do you mean?"

"He tried to sell me out the first time but failed, so he used you to trick me into going home, knocked me out and handed me over to someone else. I almost fell to my death while trying to escape from the third floor. Chen was so angry that he sent him to jail." Xue'er said while observing her mother's expression.

"Okay, okay! How long is the sentence? It's best if he never gets out. My child, I'm sorry for not protecting you well!" Mother Liu said to her daughter with a distressed look.

"Mom, it's all over. Don't be sad. He was indirectly responsible for my marriage to Chen. I tell you all this just to tell you where he is so that you don't have to worry about him all the time." Xue'er said.

"Mom knows, kid, from now on, there will only be the two of us in our family. He has long been an outsider."

"And me." Bai Chen said at the right time.

"Yes, and Chenchen, as long as you are fine, Mom will be relieved." Liu's mother responded, and then the mother and daughter hugged each other. Xue'er was extremely happy and finally poured out all her thoughts. Seeing her mother happily accept the fact, she finally let go of the worries she had had for months.
