Do you remember the story I told you before?

"Should he avenge his daughter?"

Song Lingge's gaze was fixed on the distance, unfocused.

“I will always remember what you said—that our daughter will know.”

Many nights, Song Lingge would think of this sentence, and many memories from her past life would instantly fill her mind.

Fang Xingxing, her dearest daughter, had been advising her to live a good life and stay away from Fang Guanghua ever since her own incident.

She never allowed her to seek revenge.

But Song Lingge didn't know whether it was her subconscious or what Fang Xingxing truly wanted to express.

She was completely lost and confused.

After being reborn, it seems that every step I take is being pushed forward by others.

She also orchestrated a revenge plot once or twice, which inadvertently led to Chen Sande's death.

No matter how wretched he was in life, he was still a living, breathing human being.

Song Lingge couldn't ignore it.

"What do you think your daughter really wants to see? Is it for her mother to be reborn and do everything in her power to avenge her, or to start a completely new life?"

After Song Lingge asked her question, Qiao Nansheng remained silent for a long time, with only the sound of the wind whistling through the car.

This is a century-old problem, and it's difficult to say what the right choice is.

Song Lingge did not press for answers as usual. She believed that Qiao Nansheng understood what she meant and that it was enough to leave it at that.

Qiao Nansheng, however, was unable to calm down for a long time.

He had a feeling that Song Lingge's long-standing inner conflict must be related to this story, but he couldn't figure out the connection.

Jiang Yunlan was extremely annoyed.

The annoyance was so intense that she even considered leaving Nanzhou and returning to the impoverished and remote Yuning County.

She insisted on telling Li Meimei, thinking it would make the Li family think more highly of her. Who knew that even though she had solid evidence against her, Zhou Songmei could easily cover it up with just a few words.

Li Meimei blamed Jiang Yunlan for her inability to punish Zhou Songmei, and made things even more difficult for her.

Zhou Songmei is even more of a troublemaker. Taking advantage of her pregnancy, she completely entrusts Zizai to her care.

She became a complete doormat, a mother figure.

But Jiang Yunlan was unwilling to accept it; she had never been treated like this before.

Yuning County was very poor, and the Jiang family was even poorer. Otherwise, they wouldn't have let Jiang Yunlan, a young woman in her prime, marry into the Jiang family after her sister's death.

To put it nicely, she was a second wife, so that her nephew wouldn't be mistreated by a stepmother.

But everyone knows that if it weren't for poverty and not being able to find a better family, why would she become a stepmother?

However, Jiang Yunlan was not forced into it; she wholeheartedly supported her family's decision.

She has her own plans.

The Fang family was the best family they could find at the time.

Although the child is not his own, he is his nephew, so the relationship can't be too bad.

If she stayed in the Jiang family and became an old maid, she would either have endless farm work to do or be married off to some unknown old bachelor.

In the Fang family, Jiang Yunlan was the true mistress of the house.

As for Fang Guanghua, she doesn't need to do anything particularly good for others to see, nor does she need to do anything particularly bad to belittle her own nephew.

These days are incredibly comfortable.

But all of this came to an abrupt end when Fang Guanghua picked her up and brought her to Nanzhou.

They said they came here to enjoy life, but they didn't receive any blessings at all; all they did was berate themselves.

It's no wonder her in-laws are rich! It's also her own fault; she thought that once a daughter of the Li family got married, she was like water spilled from a bowl, and she made things difficult for Li Meimei.

Now the tables have turned, and Li Meimei's torment of her can be considered to have come to an end.

But what gives Zhou Songmei the right to do so?

It was bad enough that she was carrying Fang Guanghua's child, but now she was carrying an illegitimate child of unknown father and was expected to serve him. She was utterly fed up with it.

However, Jiang Yunlan's complaints didn't last long, because Zhou Songmei moved out.

However, Zizai still stayed at the Fang family's house.

Zizai is at that age where even cats and dogs dislike him; he's mischievous and naughty, yet we can't leave him alone.

Although I mentioned to Jiang Yunlan that I would take care of the children when I came to Nanzhou before, Zhou Songmei was at home at that time, so Jiang Yunlan didn't know how to do many things.

Now they've all become hands-off parents, leaving the child to her alone. Jiang Yunlan looked at the child who had somehow found flour, covering her body in white so much that her features were indistinguishable, and collapsed to the ground, bursting into tears.

The room was covered in flour. Zizai looked at Jiang Yunlan, who was crying loudly, and was at a loss. He also started to cry.

This was the scene that Fang Guanghua and Li Meimei saw when they entered the house.

Li Meimei is going crazy.

How did our perfectly good wedding room end up like this?

She dropped her bag and threw it at Zizai, spanking him while yelling, "You little rascal, did you do this? I'll beat you to death!"

Li Meimei finally found an outlet for her anger and beat Zizai without any mercy.

At first, Jiang Yunlan thought she was right to hit her, but when she saw that Li Meimei showed no signs of stopping, she became a little anxious. How could anyone hit a child like that?

So Jiang Yunlan, without even wiping away her tears, got up from the floor and went to the living room to berate Fang Guanghua, who was sitting on the sofa, seemingly unconcerned: "You just watched her hit her?"

Fang Guanghua glanced at the child who was crying his heart out and said to Li Meimei, "Meimei, that's enough. You must be tired after hitting him for so long. Come and sit down."

Li Meimei obediently stopped and sat down next to Fang Guanghua.

However, she wasn't tired of hitting the child; she felt compassion when she saw the child crying.

Ultimately, it's all the adults' fault. This child... seeing the child, I saw the flour all over the floor. He was also at fault and deserved to be punished!

Jiang Yunlan was stunned by Fang Guanghua and Li Meimei's reactions.

Li Meimei was one thing, but Fang Guanghua was, after all, Zizai's biological father. Their relationship wasn't particularly deep, but Fang Guanghua had always treated Zizai well. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to please Li Meimei and get her to agree to let Zizai and Zhou Songmei live in their marital home.

But why is Li Meimei being allowed to hit the child today?

His expression showed not a trace of heartache.

"While it's true that children need to be disciplined for being naughty, you're being too harsh. Aren't you afraid of hurting them?"

Li Meimei immediately glared at Jiang Yunlan: "So what if he's badly injured? His own mother doesn't care. Does he expect others to treat his child well? I'm already being kind-hearted by not kicking him out."

In the past, Jiang Yunlan would not have helped Zizai seek justice, but Li Meimei had been too mean to her lately, and now that Fang Guanghua was there, Jiang Yunlan couldn't help but speak up.

"The biological mother is gone, but the biological father is still here! How could you do this to such a young child?"

“Your biological father? Heh, you don’t know that yet?” Li Meimei said with a sneer.

Jiang Yunlan then noticed that just now, Zizai had run towards Fang Guanghua and acted coquettishly, but Fang Guanghua had pushed him aside with a look of disgust.

Even if Jiang Yunlan was very easygoing, she knew that something must have gone wrong.
