Chapter 634: Strange Circumstances (2) (2/2)
Now, she did not know whether to tell her daughter that the child had survived but had… vanished!
Old Madam’s heart ached for her daughter. She hurried to console her. “Don’t be sad anymore, all right? Yuying! You’re still young! You might still have children in the future. Please cheer up!”
If she had a chance to go back, she would certainly look for the child. If someone had deliberately stolen the child, then… the person who had stolen the baby girl must be someone who liked girls?
Perhaps the child was still alive?
All these years, Old Madam had secretly prayed that the child was leading a good life.
This incident had emotionally crippled Qiao Yuying. Every time it came up, it could not be resolved. Besides grief, there was only more grief.
Qiao Yuying calmed herself down and suppressed her sorrow. Then she said, “Mother, it’s late. You should be resting!”
Old Madam Qiao pursed her lips, but she left.
When she got to her bedroom, Old Madam hung her head, clearly deeply distressed.
Old Master Qiao was sitting up in bed and he frowned when he saw her like that. “Ying Ying is still the same?”
Old Madam Qiao nodded.
The Old Master sighed. There was nothing he could do!
Old Madam walked over to him and said remorsefully, “It’s all our fault. If we were calmer and paid a little more attention to the child, she would not have been lost!
“If the child was not lost, and we raised her ourselves, she would be an obedient and mature young girl by now. Our family is full of smelly boys. I’ve been longing for a granddaughter for years.”
Old Master Qiao’s heart also ached at the thought.
