Chapter 621: Chapter 621: She Has a Reason to Die
Tong Sanlang and Qiao Changshun never expected Zhuang Lühe to behave in such a way. Both of them were startled. Tong Sanlang took a big step forward, reaching out with his long arm to grab Zhuang Lühe’s shoulder, “Mother, what are you doing?!”
“Let go of me!” After failing in her suicide attempt, Zhuang Lühe started to struggle violently, a sharp scream emitted from her throat, “Let go of me!”
Upon seeing this, Qiao Changshun, whose tears had finally stopped, began to weep uncontrollably again. He hurriedly rushed to embrace Zhuang Lühe and wailed, “Luhe, what are you doing, what are you doing? If you’re not here, what should I do and how would our two kids get by…”
Tong Sanlang let go of Zhuang Lühe’s shoulder when he saw Qiao Changshun holding her.
But Zhuang Lühe began to squirm again at this moment, pushing Qiao Changshun with all her might and screaming hysterically, “You let me go, let me die, get out, get out!”
Qiao Changshun employed all his strength to hold her, allowing her fists to hit his body, his tears flowing even more fiercely, “I won’t let go. I won’t. You can’t die. If you die, what will I do? How will our two kids get by?”
“Xiaomai and Dami are doing well, just let me die!” When Zhuang Lühe couldn’t push Qiao Changshun away, she went to scratch his face, “Move! Don’t touch me, move away!”
Zhuang Lühe’s nails, which had not been trimmed for a long time, had left several streaks of blood on Qiao Changshun’s face.
Watching from the side, Tong Sanlang spoke in a deep voice, “Mother, you have no idea how remarkable Xiaomai has become now. Our family has five hundred acres of fertile land and she has also cooked for the retired emperor. She insisted that you had gone out to work because you couldn’t endure the torment of the Sun Family.”
“Everyone in the village believed this excuse, so you could go back with Dad. And now we have broken off relations with the Sun family, they dare not swagger around our home anymore. After coming back, we will only have good days.”
“Xiaomai and Dami have personally come to take you home.”
Upon hearing Tong Sanlang’s words, Zhuang Lühe froze in the midst of her struggle. She unbelievingly turned her head to look at Tong Sanlang, her thin face filled with incredulous surprise, “What did you say?”
“I said, Xiaomai is the top person in our neighboring villages. When she said you went out to earn a living, nobody dared to gossip. She and Dami miss you very much and sincerely hope you can come home. They are waiting for you at the entrance of Linzhang Village.”
“She has never told Dami the truth, and Dami thinks you’ve been out working. She still considers you as her biological mother, so you don’t need to feel any guilt.”
Tong Sanlang’s tone and expression was extremely sincere, as he seemed to have guessed what Zhuang Lühe was thinking.
As Qiao Xiaomai had once said, Zhuang Lühe owed Qiao Changshun nothing so she could face Qiao Changshun comfortably.
But Zhuang Lühe did owe the two kids. At the times when Qiao Xiaomai and Qiao Dami needed her the most, she left them.
One was about to come of age and needed to get married and the other was a seven-year-old who was sensible and obedient.
At the time when these two children needed her the most, she ran away without a word in a way that utterly destroyed her reputation.
This injury, if the original host were still present, if Qiao Dami knew the truth, it would undoubtedly be a wound that would never heal in a lifetime.
Zhuang Lühe also understood this, hence when she heard she was being taken back to see Qiao Xiaomai and Qiao Dami, she wanted to take her own life.
She genuinely felt too ashamed to face the two kids.
