Chapter 517 - 502: Having You Is My Happiness
After hanging up the phone, Gu’er was deeply moved. She now had a much deeper understanding of Zheng Changsheng.
’What man doesn’t want children, especially in this day and age? Who wouldn’t want a child of their own? They all do. But even though Zheng Changsheng was happy about Lin Shuying’s pregnancy, he was still able to think of her health first. He prioritized her well-being, willing to forgo having a child if it was too dangerous for her to give birth. A man like that is truly rare.’
’Lin Shuying suffered a great deal when she was younger, but she has a pair of sensible, dutiful children, and now she has a wonderful man like Zheng Changsheng. Her life is finally complete. I hope she can give birth safely.’
After thinking about Lin Shuying, Gu’er’s thoughts turned to Li Hua. Li Hua’s fate was somewhat similar to Lin Shuying’s, but Li Hua lacked her decisiveness and didn’t have good children either. After marrying Qin Dali, she had brought Du’er with her. And surprisingly, Zhou Duo’er had toned it down quite a bit. Although she was rather lazy and did nothing around the Qin family’s house, she hadn’t caused any major trouble.
Zhou Feng’er and Zhang Da, on the other hand, had caused a lot of trouble. After learning about the relationship between Gu’er and Li Hua, Qin Dali had lamented the situation for a few days. But he followed Gu’er’s advice. He understood that Gu’er didn’t want Li Hua to have any excessive entanglement with Zhou Feng’er, Zhang Da, Zhou Mazi, or Zhou Cai, and he was more than willing to comply. After all, those people were truly no good, and he didn’t want Li Hua to be dragged down by them.
So, Qin Dali really did refuse to let Zhang Da and Zhou Feng’er in the door. Zhou Feng’er was a married daughter; she had no relation or emotional connection to him. He turned them away right at the entrance, telling Zhou Feng’er that this was not her maternal home and that she shouldn’t come back. At first, Zhou Feng’er sat at the Qin family’s gate and caused a scene, bad-mouthing the family. But the Qin Family ignored her. Although Li Hua felt terrible, she ultimately held back and didn’t go out to see Zhou Feng’er.
’In Li Hua’s mind, she had remarried, which meant she should treat her husband as the head of the household and listen to him. As for her daughter, she had already married her off. She had her own family now and belonged to someone else. She should be living her own life. Li Hua felt she had fulfilled her responsibility, so her daughter shouldn’t be coming here to cause trouble and bad-mouth the Qin Family. That just wasn’t right.’
Li Hua felt that although her mother-in-law wasn’t young, she was a very good person. Since Li Hua had married into the family, her mother-in-law hadn’t had the slightest complaint about her. Instead, she treated her like her own daughter, which made Li Hua feel she should treat her mother-in-law even better.
Although Qin Dali’s son was a quiet boy, he wasn’t immature. He never gave her a hard time or made her feel uneasy.
Qin Dali was even more protective of her. Whenever he saw housework that needed doing, he would do it himself. Even with chores that were supposed to be her responsibility, like cooking and cleaning, he would step in. If he saw she was tired, he would fetch water for her to wash up or lend a hand with her work. When she was at her job in the mall, he would bring her hot meals. He would also secretly buy her little things now and then, and when they were alone, he would whisper sweet things to her. These were all things she had never experienced when she was with Zhou Mazi.
She felt truly content with this kind of life and wanted it to continue. Zhou Feng’er was just being unreasonable. She’d throw a tantrum and then eventually give up. So when Qin Dali told her not to get involved, she really didn’t.
Zhou Feng’er saw that no matter what kind of scene she made, Li Hua wouldn’t appear. If she tried to cause trouble at the mall, she would just get thrown out. She was at her wit’s end. Later, all the ruckus she caused even made her go into premature labor. She gave birth to a daughter at just over eight months. The baby was a tough one and actually survived. Zhou Feng’er was fine, too. The only thing that Gu’er never expected was that the father, Zhang Da, would still name the child Zhang Juan.
’So, Zhang Juan was still Zhang Da’s daughter, it’s just that her mother in this life was Zhou Feng’er. As for what this Zhang Juan looked like, or if she was the same as the one from her past life, Gu’er didn’t know. She hadn’t gone to see. This child had nothing to do with her, and she didn’t want to get involved. Her son was Jiji, Sun Ji. Even if she had a daughter in the future, that child would belong to the Sun Family and have absolutely no connection to Zhang Juan.’
Perhaps because she had a child now, Zhou Feng’er settled down a lot. She stopped going to the Qin family’s home to cause trouble all the time, and life for the Qin Family became much easier. Li Hua was still doing quite well now.
As for Zhou Mazi and Zhou Cai, Zhou Cai was desperate to move to the city. He even snuck away once to find Li Hua, but he happened to run right into Qin Dali and never got to see his mother. Qin Dali told him that he was a child of the Zhou family and that the Qin Family could not take him in. He told him to stay with Zhou Mazi and that he would never let him into the Qin family’s home, telling him to give up the idea for good.
Zhou Cai couldn’t win a fight against Qin Dali, he couldn’t get through the Qin family’s door, and he couldn’t see Li Hua. It seemed he was finally beginning to understand that now that his mother had remarried, things were truly different.
