Chapter 430: Chapter 430: Revealing the Pregnancy
Unable to go against Liu Sisi’s strong stance, Ms. Yao left with the lantern, looking back three steps at a time.
As soon as Ms. Yao left, Liu Sisi’s entire body seemed to have its backbone removed, and she could no longer stand firmly, her body collapsing.
Frightened, Di Yelei hurriedly and chaotically held her up: “Sisi, Sisi, what’s wrong?”
“Mom! Mom, what’s wrong? Mom…”
Little Ying from the side also cried and stepped forward, shaking Liu Sisi’s hand.
Liu Sisi had a hard time catching her breath, her face extraordinarily pale. She stretched out her hand and held Di Yelei’s hand, whispering.
“Tell me… why does my own mother still… show such favoritism?”
Di Yelei’s expression darkened, tightly holding Liu Sisi’s hand. Although her words were only half-spoken, he understood the meaning behind them.
She was talking about the conflict between him and Ms. Zhao. Ms. Zhao was, after all, a stepmother, which could be explained. But on her side, it was her own biological mother!
“Sisi, do you remember what you told me? You said that the fate between people is certain, and gaining and losing have always been equal. You lost that home but gained our current one. You lost those relatives, but gained the sincere treatment of me and the two children. You are not at a loss!”
“Yes! I am not at a loss, haha…”
Liu Sisi laughed, but while laughing, she began to cry again.
Di Yelei did not know how to comfort her, so he held her tightly in his arms, lightly patting her back, and silently accompanied her.
Elderly Mr. Di led the children away in silence and gave the couple some alone time.
Wiping away her tears, and looking back frequently, Little Ying asked Di Xuan puzzledly, “Brother, what do you think why does grandmother want to hit mom? It was clearly uncle’s fault, so why did she hit mom?”
Di Xuan was silent for a long time, “I don’t know either.”
That night, while Liu Sisi was asleep, Di Yelei made many lanterns overnight – baby rabbits, small fish, puppies, kittens, lotuses, Guanyin… various kinds of lanterns filled a table.
When she woke up in the morning, Liu Sisi silently picked up these lanterns one by one, examining them carefully.
Finally, she picked up a carp-leaping-over-dragon-gate lantern and did not let go for a long time.
Ms. Yao yesterday also had an identical lantern…
She sighed, perhaps she ultimately had no fate with parents? Her previous life’s parents left early, and this life became like this. Once she let it go, her heart would not hurt anymore!
“Mom, you’re up! YingEr got up earlier than you today, even Cousin got up to eat.”
Little Ying ran over, bouncing and jumping happily, and pounced into her arms.
Liu Sisi cheered up, hurriedly hugged her, “What about you? Have you eaten?”
“No, mom, YingEr is waiting for you to get up and eat together.” YingEr hung on her arm and rubbed against Liu Sisi as they walked toward the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Di Yelei was not there. Only Elderly Mr. Di was sitting by the bonfire adding charcoal. Meanwhile, Old Cheng was on the side, digging into the fire pit, pulling roasted sweet potatoes out of it. Despite the hot and dirty conditions, he directly put them into his pocket, quickly accumulating several.
“Old Cheng, is there not enough food? If it’s not enough, just let us know, and next time, we’ll cook more.”
