"Mommy...Mommy...Mother Chen, how is my mommy? How did she fall ill? Is it serious?"
Xia Qingqing had just jumped out of the taxi and was already anxious. She grabbed hold of the door and asked Ma Chen nervously. She was so anxious that she almost shed tears.
"This...this..."
Mother Chen looked embarrassed and hesitated, which made Xia Qingqing even more uneasy.
"Forget it, I'll go in and see for myself!"
Xia Qingqing anxiously walked around Chen's mother, her panicked steps paused the moment she stepped into the living room, and her whole body froze in place like a thunderbolt.
Her mother, who should have been ill in bed, was sitting in front of the coffee table piled with snacks and fruits, with a rosy face and a smile, chatting and laughing with Uncle Ouyang and Uncle Murong.
"Mommy, are you lying to me? What kind of serious illness? What kind of fainting? Are you trying to trick me into coming back?"
My heart was severely stung by the scene in front of me.
Xia Qingqing roared uncontrollably, feeling that not only her voice, but also her teeth were chattering.
"Qingqing, please calm down and listen to Mommy! Mommy didn't lie to you. She did fainted this morning. Master Murong happened to visit the hospital where Mommy was sent. Mommy was just anemic and is fine now. If you don't believe me, you can ask your Uncle Ouyang.
.”
Unexpectedly, her daughter would be so excited. Xia Congrong quickly took her daughter's hand and comforted her gently, with a look on her face that she wanted to bring her daughter into their harmonious discussion.
"Qingqing, Master Murong has been here since early in the morning. We are discussing the marriage between you and Master Murong. It is better to catch the day than to catch the sun. Master Murong plans to take wedding photos today."
"What wedding? What wedding photos? Mommy, Uncle Murong, I think I have made it very clear: I, do not, marry! Now I have to go back to work, and I won’t accompany you!"
Regardless of whether Mommy really fainted or not, Xia Qingqing felt like she had been cheated.
For the first time, she felt that her mother was holding her arm, but she couldn't feel any intimacy or warmth.
Xia Qingqing took off her mother's hand with all her strength, sneered, refused every word, and turned around to leave.
"Stand!!"
Xia Qingqing paused in her steps, not because of the terrifying roar of Uncle Ouyang behind her, but because of the several burly men standing in front of her as if they were well prepared.

It's only been three days since the college entrance examination ended. Is mommy so anxious to kick her out?
Xia Qingqing was so angry that she couldn't speak after being pulled into the room to talk again by her mother.
Only the tears kept rolling down, proving that she was still awake and not completely numb.
"Qingqing, Mommy has told you so much, haven't you listened at all?
My marriage to your Uncle Ouyang was also a continuation of my relationship. To put it bluntly, I was just a concubine. What's wrong with you becoming a young mistress as soon as you get married?"
"Do you think everyone is as rare as you to marry into a wealthy family and become a young mistress?!"
Mommy had been chattering for a long time, and Xia Qingqing couldn't bear it and roared at her to vent her dissatisfaction.
Why can't she choose her own life?!
For the first time, Xia Qingqing began to agree with her brother's disdain for her mother.
A slap of "Pa--" fell on Xia Qingqing's pale face.
Xia Qingqing instinctively covered the burning left side of her face and looked at her mother in disbelief.
"Qingqing, do you really want to make your mother so angry that she has a cerebral hemorrhage or a heart attack? How much infamy did I bear when I was pregnant and gave birth to you in ten months? In order to provide you with a good living and learning environment, I tried every means to marry into a wealthy family.
How much infamy have you received for being a concubine? I have found a good wife and son-in-law for you in the future. Not only are you ungrateful, but you also talk about Mommy like this. How sad is Mommy’s heart? "
Xia Congrong cried sadly and complained sadly.
Mommy's tears rolled down like broken beads, making Xia Qingqing feel a little guilty and soft-hearted.
This is the first time she has spoken rudely to her mommy, and it is also the first time her mommy has hit her.
"Qingqing, it hurts your body and hurts your mother's heart. Mommy has no choice but to marry you off in a hurry.
Qingqing, in fact, Murong Zhi gave the betrothal gift before the college entrance examination. Mommy was greedy for a moment and used it to speculate in stocks, but the past two months were a bear market, so she was all caught up. Now Murong Zhi came to ask for someone, if
If you regret your marriage now, where will you ask mommy to get that large sum of money? You don’t want to force mommy to death, do you?”
Seeing that her daughter's mood was more stable, Xia Congrong dared to cry anxiously.
"Didn't Mommy say it was used to help sunshine?"
Xia Qingqing opened her eyes in shock and asked in disbelief.
"I'm not trying to trick you into agreeing. Silly daughter, Sunshine belongs to Ouyang Lingyun and has nothing to do with our mother and daughter. Why did you give Sunshine your betrothal gift?"
Mommy's words made Xia Qingqing heartbroken. She suspected that the world of beatings and thinking were too complicated, or that she had never really known Mommy.
"We can borrow it from Uncle Ouyang first, and then return it to Uncle Ouyang after you invest it."
"No, no, what if your Uncle Ouyang knew that I used all the money from my betrothal gift to speculate in stocks, would he forgive me? He thought it would be used for sunshine!"
"Mommy, why are you so confused!"
"Mommy wants to make money by investing in stocks. Who wants to lose money?"
Is there no other way besides marrying Murong Zhi?
Although they don’t know the exact amount of the betrothal gift, it is definitely not a small sum that their mother and daughter can afford.
Can she ask her brother for help? Will her brother save her mother?
While Xia Qingqing was in a state of panic, her cell phone rang. It was her brother.
"Don't answer the phone, Qingqing, if you don't get married now, mommy will be dead."
Before Xia Qingqing could answer the call, her mother snatched the phone away.
"Mommy, please give me your phone back."
Xia Qingqing asked helplessly.
"Qingqing, do you really want to go on a business trip with Ouyang Lingyun? Do you really want to watch Mommy die without saving her?"
"Mommy, isn't it okay if I agree to take pictures? You let me answer my brother's call."
Worried that her brother would be anxious if he couldn't find her, Xia Qingqing had to compromise.
"Where are you, the oil bottle? We are about to leave. If we are late, we will not be able to catch the plane."
Hearing her brother's familiar voice, Xia Qingqing was so aggrieved that she wanted to cry loudly.
