Xu Hui and Gao Hui got into the car and left. Gao Hui kept cursing and swearing, her words revealing her dissatisfaction with Wang Jinghuai, that vixen.

Xu Hui grew impatient, took Gao Hui to her old house, and then returned to his own small home.

It was lunchtime, and when I opened the door and went inside, the house was cold, quiet, and messy.

The floor was littered with unopened packages that Wang Jinghuai had bought; clothes were piled on the sofa; leftover breakfast was on the coffee table; the trash can was overflowing; and his worn socks were scattered haphazardly.

Upon entering the kitchen, I found that the dishes and utensils were unwashed, and the soup spilled on the floor had already dried.

When He Qiaoyun was alive, the house was always spotless, and there would be hot soup and rice waiting for you on the table when you came home...

This stark contrast made it difficult for him to adapt.

He was about to call Wang Jinghuai in a huff when the door opened, and Wang Jinghuai, dressed elegantly, led a little girl in with a smile.

Upon seeing his daughter, Xu Hui's anger instantly dissipated.

"Tongtong." Xu Hui squatted down to call out to his daughter.

The little girl, named Tongtong, happily jumped into Xu Hui's arms and sweetly called him "Daddy."

Xu Hui laughed, picked up his daughter, his face full of love and doting, "Hey, are you hungry? Daddy will go make you some food."

Tongtong hugged his neck. "I'm not hungry."

Someone walked in before the door was closed. The eldest son, Xu Feichi, frowned as he looked at the family of three, feeling inexplicably annoyed.

"Where did this child come from?" Xu Feichi asked.

The three of them realized what was happening, and Wang Jinghuai adopted a somewhat ingratiating tone, "Feichi is back, come sit down, I'll go cook."

After saying that, she went into the kitchen.

Xu Hui put his daughter down, smiled, and patted her head, "Go find your mother."

Tongtong ran into the kitchen.

Xu Hui walked to the living room sofa and sat down. Xu Feichi followed him over and asked bluntly, "Is she your daughter?"

"Yes, my biological child."

Xu Feichi was at a loss for words for a moment. After a moment of silence, he said, "You're being ridiculous!"

If it were just a twilight romance, he, as a son, would naturally not object, but with the sudden addition of a daughter, that's absolutely unacceptable.

He has a son and a daughter himself, and knows how expensive it is to raise a child these days.

"No wonder you don't care about your grandchildren, it turns out you're hiding one yourself!" Xu Feichi felt very unbalanced.

Xu Hui was also annoyed. "Who said I didn't care? Besides, Tongtong is your own sister. Watch your words."

Xu Feichi sneered, "I only have one younger sister, and she's a doctor at the medical university now!"

Xu Hui was too lazy to argue with him, so he simply gave him a notice: "By the way, tell He Mei that the room she used to live in should be given to Tong Tong."

Xu Feichi immediately refused, "Why should I? This is my younger sister's room. Why should her child, a mistress's child, have the right to stay here? I don't agree!"

Xu Hui was also furious. "How dare you talk like that! This is my house, my child, and I make the decisions. If you don't want to stay, get out!"

Xu Feichi, unmoved by this insult, retorted, "I think you're really senile!" and left.

As the door closed, he suddenly remembered that he had come to collect money...

Seeing this, Wang Jinghuai and her daughter timidly came out of the kitchen.

"Maybe I should leave my daughter with my mom..." Wang Jinghuai said, head bowed.

Xu Hui, being a chauvinist, said, "No need, he can't control me. Tongtong will sleep in Hemei's room."

Wang Jinghuai stopped refusing, hugged her daughter, and said with tears in her eyes, "Tongtong, we have a home now."

Xu Hui felt sorry for her because of her appearance. He reached out and rubbed Wang Jinghuai's face, saying, "Wait until I divorce that old hag, then I'll register Tongtong's household registration."

Wang Jinghuai hugged him, "Thank you, Ahui."

He Qiaoyun lived peacefully for a while.

One day, the eldest and second sons suddenly came to the door.

She looked at her two sons, whom she had once been so proud of, and felt a mix of emotions.

Xu Feichi spoke up, "Mom, I heard you and Dad are getting a divorce. Why didn't you discuss it with us first? It's too hasty..."

He Qiaoyun frowned upon hearing this: "What's there to discuss? Do you expect me to live with your mistress if we don't get a divorce?"

The two sons were speechless with shock.

“If you’re here to see me, you’re welcome. But if you’re here to persuade me to get back together with that old man, then go back. My divorce is my freedom as a normal person, and it hasn’t harmed any of your interests. The house we bought for you is still yours; we won’t take a single penny.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a message popped up on He Qiaoyun's phone. It was from one of the orchard's helpers, and she replied with a voice message in front of them.

Xu Feichi spotted her new phone immediately, his eyes wide with surprise. "Mom, why did you buy such an expensive phone?"

Xu Xiucheng chimed in, "Were you scammed?"

These words revealed anxiety, dissatisfaction, and accusation.

These two men were extremely possessive of her money, as if she had touched their cake and eaten it too.

He Qiaoyun laughed, "I wasn't cheated. I bought this from a specialty store. It cost me almost 10,000 yuan, and I just realized how good the new phone is."

Xu Feichi never understood, “Even if you want to buy a new phone, you don’t need to buy such an expensive one. It’s a waste. You can just buy a domestic phone that costs a little over one or two thousand yuan.”

Xu Xiucheng: "Yes, Mom, you only use it for watching videos and sending WeChat messages, you don't need such a high-end configuration at all."

He Qiaoyun felt a chill in her heart when she heard her two sons say this.

“I raised you three siblings with great difficulty, and now that you're all grown up and have your own families, you don't need me to take care of you anymore. What's wrong with me buying myself a nice new phone to treat myself? How come you call it wasting money? You can buy it, but if I buy it, it's a crime?”

Xu Feichi and Xu Xiucheng looked somewhat embarrassed.

"Mom, that's not what we meant..."

"Mom, you've really misunderstood us. We meant well..."

Looking at their fawning expressions, He Qiaoyun knew they were there to ask for money.

She didn't mince words and said directly, "You're all almost thirty and have families. You need to be more ambitious. You can't keep relying on me to support you. It doesn't sound good to sponge off your parents."

After her eldest son graduated from art school, she used many connections to get him a job at a foreign company.

The eldest daughter-in-law also works for a foreign company, and both of them earn a decent salary. They bought the house early on, and the monthly mortgage payment is less than 5,000 yuan. They bought the car outright. After paying off the mortgage, it's enough to support their two children who are still in school.

The second son's grades weren't great, but he chose a good major in college and now works as a programmer at an internet company. His wife works as a designer at an advertising company. The two of them only have one child, so they don't have any difficulties at all.

The two were stunned. "Mom, what do you mean by this...?"

He Qiaoyun smiled and said, "From now on, you will have to work hard on your own. You can also set an example for the children. It's time for me to start my new life."

She reached out to them countless times during their most difficult times; it was a mother's instinct.

But now they've all grown up and it's time to wean them.

Spoiling children too much can cause their limbs to degenerate...

The two were dumbfounded, like children abandoned by their mother.

"Mom, tell me the truth, are you still upset that we didn't go to your funeral that day?" Xu Feichi asked anxiously.
