Chapter 57: 【057】90s cook 57
The Liu family wanted to stop Meng Xiuying, but she stood up with the support of Gong Mingxia, glaring at them with gritted teeth.
"You don’t need to say anything else, I’m definitely getting a divorce. Liu Xueliang, if you have any shame at all, just make it quick. Otherwise, I’ll sue you. If you don’t believe me, just try me!"
Gong Mingxia took Meng Xiuying to her own home, ignoring the Old Lady’s curses from behind. As she left, Meng Xiuying reminded the neighbors to inform her if the police came and to make sure to keep an eye on these two people, so they wouldn’t escape, because the matter involved human traffickers.
Cao Yuan gave her a slight nod, "Don’t worry, with me here, he won’t be able to escape." With that one sentence, he pronounced a death sentence on Liu Xueliang.
At home, Meng Xiuying handed her child to Gong Mingxia before heading to the bathroom to wash her face and hands, then she took a small towel from her Mom’s bag to clean and wipe down her body. The day’s events had made her sweat profusely (cold sweat) and shed a lot of tears; she was utterly exhausted now.
The child had already cried until there were no sounds left to make, looking pitiful. Meng Xiuying cleaned herself up and hurried to the sofa to breastfeed. Taking the opportunity, Gong Mingxia quickly set up a pot to boil water and cooked five poached eggs for Meng Xiuying, adding a spoonful of sugar, before bringing them to her.
"Big sister, you must have been so anxious and scared all day, right? After you’ve fed the child, hurry up and eat something. Otherwise, the child might not get enough nutrition tonight."
Five poached eggs, coming from a stranger’s care, in that instant, Meng Xiuying felt a glimmer of warmth still present in the Human World. Her eyes filled with tears as she lifted her head to look at Gong Mingxia, her voice choked with emotion.
"Big sister, I thank you, I really do. You might not believe me, but ever since I got married here, I’ve never eaten a poached egg, let alone five at once. Even in the month after I gave birth, I had to look at people’s faces to eat an egg. Tell me, how did I, being a woman as well, end up in such a state?"
Seeing Meng Xiuying on the verge of losing control of her emotions, Gong Mingxia quickly consoled her, "Don’t cry, sister. Look how scared the child is; he’s shivering. First, get the child to sleep after nursing. We can talk about everything else later. Once the child is asleep, put her next to my daughter, and then we can go out and talk to the police properly. But right now, I just want to ask you one question, do you really want to get a divorce?"
Meng Xiuying, when asked this difficult question, hesitated as she looked at Gong Mingxia.
"Big sister, if you don’t mind telling me, what was the reason for your divorce?"
Gong Mingxia smiled, "You might not believe it, but I got divorced because my husband thought the child wasn’t his. We were married for seven years without being able to conceive, and he had oligospermia. He thought he could never have children in this lifetime, so he was convinced I had cheated on him. That’s why we got divorced. At the time of the divorce, the child was only six months old. Over the years, I’ve raised her on my own and have endured a lot of hardships, but we finally got through. She’s five now, attending Little Sun kindergarten. See, I’m also doing quite well raising a child on my own, aren’t I?"
"So, don’t worry about not being able to live without a man, that’s impossible. Remember this: ’Women are seemingly gentle, but they are strong as mothers.’ Only as a mother do you know how ’precious’ your child is to you. For her, you might even risk your life, what’s a bit of hardship compared to that?"
