110 The Reason She Must Be Everyone held their breath, waiting quietly for every word the old lady would say next, as if they were afraid of missing something.
"I know you don't like this girl, but you are more curious about why I insist on Xiaochen marrying her?" The old lady's beginning made everyone look at each other, and then lowered their eyelids with guilt.
"It's not so much that she got into trouble with Xiao Chen because of her recklessness, it's better to say that I took advantage of her," Duan Mumu was surprised this time, and even Leng Anyen found it incredible.
"Grandma..." he whispered. Isn't this old lady old and confused?
The old lady glanced at Leng Anyen, and then her eyes fell on Duanmumu's face again. "I owe her this. Duanmumu felt like he was thrown into the clouds, but his heart was tightening more and more tightly."
..
"There is a secret in me. Some of you may know it, and some of you may not. Today I will tell you the truth... Sixty years ago, when your grandfather and I met, in fact, he already had
I met my sweetheart, her name was Song Yuemei, and I was childhood sweethearts with your grandfather. But I fell in love with your grandfather at first sight at that time. In order to get your grandfather, I used a trick to let Song Yuemei leave. Later I heard that she was pregnant with a child. In order to avoid future troubles, I also
Find someone to hurt the child in her belly... They say people can't do bad things, otherwise they will be uneasy for the rest of their lives. From then on, I had nightmares every day, and finally one day I couldn't stand it anymore, so I sent someone to inquire about Song Yuemei's whereabouts and wanted to make compensation.
She, but I didn’t expect that she would marry another man named Qiao and give birth to a daughter. Unfortunately, she suffered a massive hemorrhage during childbirth and died without even seeing the child."
Hearing this, cold sweat broke out on Duanmumu's back. She could not connect the kind and loving old man in front of her with what she had done.
Probably feeling something strange about Duanmu Mu, the old lady held her hand tighter, "I wanted to compensate Song Yuemei's child, but the man named Qiao was not willing. Later, your grandfather and I had something happen to us in business.
Gradually, I ignored this matter. It wasn't until one day when your grandfather passed away and I was still thinking about Song Yuemei that I realized what a stupid thing I had done... Although your grandfather has lived with me all his life, his heart is still there.
I followed another woman, and then I went to look for the family named Qiao, but there was no more information. By accident, I found out the information about the daughter of the Qiao family, but when I found her, I saw that she had a big smile.
I took her to my side, hoping to use her to comfort my uneasy conscience. But who would have thought that she actually learned the truth about the fight between me and her mother for husband, and left in anger. When I found her again, she
She had given birth to a child and was only holding a bellyband in her hand. She said that her mother made it before she was born. She had worn it and now she is wearing it for her daughter..." At this point, the old lady's expression darkened again, as if
She talked about her most painful place.
"That child is me, right?" Duanmumu asked softly, as if he was aware of it.
The old lady's eyes fell on her face, "My child, I'm sorry... I changed the fate of three generations in a moment of confusion. I am guilty!"
"Why did I go to the orphanage?" Duanmumu's voice trembled.
The old lady was like a dead lamp burning out the last trace of oil. She slowly closed her eyes and said, "Your mother was diagnosed with the disease when she was pregnant with you, but in order to save you, she did not do any treatment. After giving birth to you,
Her illness worsened, so she sent you away."
"Then why don't you take her back to our home?" Leng Anyen looked at Duanmu Mu and asked involuntarily.
well……
A long sigh revealed the old lady's helplessness, "Your mother probably didn't trust you to hand over to a scheming person like me, so she never told where she sent you until her death? I'm watching too.
Only after I got to you did I realize that you were so similar to Su Yuemei back then, so I asked someone to investigate and found out that you were sent to an orphanage back then."
Having said this, the old lady took out a piece of red cloth from under the pillow. When she unfolded it, it turned out to be a red doudou with a plum blossom embroidered on the lower left corner.
"Grandma, this is Mumu's thing, why is it here with you?" Leng Anyen saw it in Duanmumu's office.
The old lady shook her head, "There are two of you, and your mother left this one to me after she passed away. Maybe she couldn't let you go, and she still hoped in her heart that one day I could take care of you!"
Duanmumu held Hongduudu in his hands, and tears fell silently, falling on the blooming plum blossom...
"It's me, I've single-handedly harmed three generations of you, so I'm guilty," the old lady's voice became deeper and deeper, "I, I want to compensate you, compensate you..."
Duanmumu shook his head. She didn't want compensation. She only wanted her father's love and mother's love. However, the old man in front of her had caused such pain to her grandmother, her mother, and her because of his own selfishness.
"Where is my biological father?" Although Duanmumu was sad, he still wanted to find the person he was closest to.
Hearing this question, the old lady beat her hand twice on the bed, "The sins are all my fault... Your mother was bullied when she was working for others, so she didn't do it at all."
Do you know who your father is?"
Boom——
Duanmumu stood up and knocked down the machine on the side. The last words the old lady said were like the last straw that broke her.
"You, you..." She could no longer describe her feelings.
"Honey, calm down," Leng Anyen seemed to be holding her, but was thrown away.
"It's all your fault, it's you, it's you!" Like a volcano that had been silent for many years, Duanmumu erupted.
No one dared to move. They looked at her accusing her like crazy, but they could only remain speechless. What could they say? No one could bear such a thing!
"My child, it's all my fault. I'm going to go underground to atone for my sins. I'm telling you this today just because I hope you can forgive me, this old lady..."
"No, I can't forgive. I have forgiven you. Who will compensate my grandmother and my mother for their suffering?"
"Mumu," Su Huanan supported her, "don't be too excited."
"Why am I not excited? What if it were you?" Now she can't listen to anyone's advice.
"I'm hateful, let her hate it, hate it..." the old lady stopped others from comforting Duanmumu, "but girl, I want to ask you one thing... please don't leave Xiaochen, please don't leave this home.
, all this should belong to you, your..."
"I don't care, I don't want it!" Duanmumu brushed down the last thing at hand, couldn't hold it anymore and ran out.
The moment the door was slammed shut by her, a loud scream sounded from behind her——
"grandfather--"
"mom--"
Duanmumu's footsteps suddenly stopped as she was about to run. She turned back and glanced at the closed door, only to hear the sound of mournful cries that shook the sky and the earth.
Is the old lady dead?
She did so many wrong things, why did she die?
As if a movie was playing in front of his eyes, every moment of the old lady's relationship with him, as well as the words that Mother Chen from the orphanage said to him, passed through his eyes. Duanmumu closed his eyes. Although he hated her, there was still a sadness welling up from the bottom of his heart.
Grandma is dead, mother is dead, and now even the old lady is dead. What's the use of hating her anymore?
Duanmumu did not attend the funeral. She really could not face someone who had hurt her so much. However, on the day the will was announced, Duanmumu was invited to go, and the lawyer said that if she did not go, the will could not be announced.
.
This result put Duanmumu at the forefront of the storm again, and even made those who coveted property regard her as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh.
Seeing everyone's unkind eyes, Duanmumu snorted, "You don't have to look at me like this. Even if you give me all your property, you still can't say no!"
Her cold voice immediately made everyone's expressions change, especially when they thought of the old lady's apology to her before she died, not to mention that it was really possible.
"Stop daydreaming about getting all the Leng family's property, I'm afraid you have the fate to take it away." Leng Yushu didn't know what happened, and now she and Duanmu Mu were like mortal enemies.
"Even if I am not destined to receive it, it is still my business." At this moment, Duanmumu was actually looking forward to the announcement of the next inheritance.
"Shut up, all of you," Leng Zhenye, the eldest person in the family, said, immediately silencing everyone.
The lawyer hasn't arrived yet, and everyone is sitting upright, with every nerve tense.
Leng Anyen and Duan Mumu were sitting side by side, but there was a distance between them. It wasn't that he didn't want to get close to her, but that she didn't give them a chance at all.
Their relationship was already bad, and now the old lady's words have made them even worse. Compared with looking forward to the announcement of the inheritance, Leng Anyen is more worried about his and Duanmumu's future at the moment.
I don't know when he gave up his jealousy and unwillingness, and found that he really couldn't let her go.
Just before sitting in this hall, he was still working hard, hoping to save their precarious marriage, but the answer she gave killed all his last hope.
"Leng Anyen, unless the old lady gives me the entire Leng family's property, you don't want me to stay," was Duanmumu's answer to Leng Anyen.
At that moment, Leng Anyen finally understood that the harm he had done to her and the harm this family had done to her would create a gap between them that could never be filled.
His heart, at that moment, was completely empty.
Accompanied by the sound of two powerful footsteps, everyone's attention was drawn towards them, and they saw two lawyers in formal suits walking in carrying password boxes. They sighed.
Suddenly, everyone's nerves were beating rapidly as if they were on a motor, and even pairs of eyes were staring at the lockbox in the lawyer's hand, wishing they could have clairvoyance eyes to see everything inside in advance.
"Hello, Madam!" The two lawyers did not greet anyone, but were unexpectedly very respectful to Duan Mumu.
"Thank you for your hard work." Although this young lady's title meant that she had not been able to sit down for a few minutes, at this moment, Duanmumu still responded politely.
The two lawyers looked at everyone again and said, "Now that everyone is here, the will can be announced!"
With that said, the two opened the password box, and at this moment, Duanmumu seemed to hear everyone's heartbeat, so strong!
