"Mother means..." Xu Qiaoqiao was somewhat incredulous of what she had heard. In her memory, everything her mother did was for the sake of her second brother and fourth brother, whereas she and her eldest brother were the ones fated to give.
But now, was she not simply hallucinating from a blow to the head?
Zhang Xiaoying held Xu Qiaoqiao's hand, apologizing on behalf of the original host, "Mother has done many things wrong to you in the past, especially with the marriage to the Lin Family which I arranged without proper inquiry, causing you to suffer greatly.
"As long as you're happy, whether to marry or not is up to you. You only need to raise and educate your child well, and mother won't force you anymore!"
Xu Qiaoqiao's nose tingled, and the tears she had barely stopped began to fall again. She choked up and asked, "Mother, are you serious? If I don't marry in the future, will you truly not force me?"
"I won't," Zhang Xiaoying promised. "It's up to you."
