Chapter 382 Tong Min 2
Chapter 382 Tong Min 2
More than two years later, Xiaoyun finally gave birth to her first child.
However, when her mother-in-law and husband saw that the child was a girl, their faces immediately turned gloomy. They named the child Zhaodi and then ignored Xiaoyun and the child.
Ten days later, Xiaoyun, still very weak, was forced to get out of bed and work despite being scolded by her mother-in-law. She had to take care of the children and run the household chores all by herself, and she was overwhelmed and exhausted.
At the beginning, Xiaoyun couldn't even do small things like dressing her children, but as time went on, she gradually learned how to take care of children and even became skilled in making clothes and shoes for the whole family.
A year later, Xiaoyun gave birth to her second child, but this time, it was also a girl. She wasn't even allowed to take the full ten-day confinement period; after just three days, she was forced to go back to work.
Fortunately, two years later, the third child was finally born, a boy!
The mother-in-law was beaming with joy, holding her grandson in her arms, and inviting neighbors, relatives, and friends to come to the full moon banquet.
Xiaoyun's husband worked harder and treated Xiaoyun much better.
Listening to Xiaoyun telling about her life over the years, Tong Yin felt depressed and didn't know what to say.
"Xiao Yun, I'm sorry, I didn't know..." Tong Yin felt very guilty. Xiao Yun had been with her longer than anyone else. Together they grew from ignorant children into lively and bright young girls. Then, because of the changes in the Tong Mansion, they each rushed towards an unknown life.
"Miss, how have you ever done anything wrong to me?" Xiaoyun shook her head. She was really grateful to Tong Yin. Because of her, she was able to live a carefree life for so many years.
"I'm fine, really!" Xiaoyun said quickly, fearing that Tong Yin wouldn't believe her. "After I got the ingot, my mother-in-law gave me all the family's money. I discussed it with the child's father and rented a shop. Now I sell buns and porridge in the morning. Business is good, enough for the family to live on!"
"Xiaoyun, back then..."
"Miss, I'm keeping it!" Xiaoyun gave Tong Yin a sly smile, "I'm not that stupid. If I took it out, it would be gone long ago!"
Tong Yin also laughed when he heard this. It’s good that Xiaoyun knows what’s going on!
She was also worried that Xiaoyun's personal contribution would be taken away by her husband's family and her own family!
"Miss, come and take a look at my house!" Xiaoyun suggested to Tong Yin when she saw someone nearby looking over here.
Tong Yin shook her head. The Zhang family was very powerful in this place, so she didn't dare to stay for too long.
She took out something wrapped in red cloth from her bag and handed it to Xiaoyun, "This is my gift to the kids!"
Inside was a set of gold jewelry suitable for children, which Tong Yin bought specially.
Xiaoyun refused, "Miss, what are you doing? I have it, you know, I have it!"
Tong Yin pulled her hand over and forced it into hers, "Xiao Yun, we don't know when we'll meet next time!"
"Just take it!"
"Miss……"
"Xiao Yun, come on. You're already a mother of three children, why are you still so crybaby?" Tong Yin took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from Xiao Yun's face, jokingly.
Xiaoyun burst into laughter at Tong Yin's words, "Miss, the tone of your voice sounds like the old lady next door!"
"Okay, I comforted you, but you laughed at me!" Tong Yin patted Xiaoyun lightly, and Xiaoyun pretended to hide.
As the two of them went back and forth, it seemed as if they had returned to their girlhood days of playing and fighting, and to the carefree days when they had the protection of the Tong family's master and mistress!
"That's great!" Xiaoyun couldn't help but shed tears again, "Miss, you are still the same as before, that's great!"
After so many years, the young lady hasn't changed at all, which means she is living a happy life. Xiaoyun is happy for the young lady!
"Xiao Yun, I'm leaving. You must take care of yourself. I will come to see you again!" Tong Yin said reluctantly.
"Miss, don't worry, I will be fine!" Xiaoyun nodded heavily and promised.
Tong Yin turned and left, walked a few steps and looked back, and saw Xiaoyun still standing there, waving goodbye to her.
She felt a pang of sadness in her heart and quickened her pace.
……
After returning to Shanghai, Tong Yin often thought of Xiaoyun, but a person who appeared in front of her made her completely confused.
Cao Shaolin!
"You, why are you here?" Tong Yin took a step back and looked at Cao Shaolin warily.
Cao Shaolin sneered, this woman really has no heart!
"You played me and left without saying anything. How could I let you go?"
Tong Yin's fingers trembled unconsciously. Her gun was in the room.
"What? You still want to shoot me?" When Cao Shaolin asked this, he felt his heart really ache.
There was resentment in his tone, "You damn heartless bastard, when did I ever lay a hand on you?"
"Why do you avoid me like the plague?"
Cao Shaolin simply couldn't understand. He didn't even have half the patience he had for his own father, nor for Tong Yin. Why couldn't she feel it?
Tong Yin saw the residents around him looking over here, so he quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Come in and talk!"
Don't embarrass yourself outside!
Tong Yin was relieved when he saw Cao Shaolin's attitude. As long as they could still communicate, it was good.
She was afraid that he would kidnap her as soon as they met, and then do this and that.
If he really falls into that situation, Tong Yin will really find ways to kill Cao Shaolin, just like he did before!
"Cao Shaolin, you lied to me!" After closing the door, Tong Yin decided to take the initiative.
"What?" Cao Shaolin, who wanted to ask a question, was interrupted by Tong Yin and was a little stunned.
"You lied to me about going to work!" Tong Yin crossed his arms, trying to overpower him. "Not only that, you've been lying to me since we met on the ship!"
"Those days of huddling together for warmth were all a lie... I was so moved!"
When Tong Yin thought about how moved he was at that time, he felt that Cao Shaolin deserved a slap in the face!
So, it was she and Xiao Liuzi who were having a hard time, but Cao Shaolin was so relaxed that he was still acting in front of her?
He must have been laughing at her behind her back!
Cao Shaolin felt a little guilty when he heard Tong Yin bringing up old matters.
He had used a lot of tricks on Tong Yin, but, wasn't it because Tong Yin was too stubborn and insisted on drawing a line between them and him?
"I admit that I used some tricks, but my feelings for you have never been false." Cao Shaolin took a step forward and looked at Tong Yin seriously. "My concern and care for you are all sincere. Later, I didn't tell the truth because I was afraid that you would leave me after you knew my identity."
Tong Yin turned his head away, not daring to look into his fiery eyes.
"So what do you want from me now?" Cao Shaolin held her hand. "I want to start over with you. I know I was wrong before and wasn't honest with you. But I promise that I will tell you everything in the future and won't let you feel deceived again."
"But……"
"Are you worried that what you're doing might conflict with mine?"
"How do you know?" Tong Yin almost suspected that there was Cao Shaolin's spy around him.
The things she did together with some people cannot be known to others.
"If we have different paths, we cannot work together. Now, we are on the same path!"
"Do you know what you are saying?" Tong Yin couldn't believe it. What kind of person is Cao Shaolin?
I'm afraid that people who know him will keep their distance from him and dare not provoke him!
But now, he actually said that they were of the same kind?
"Can't I just stay close to the red and become redder?" Cao Shaolin said seriously with a wry smile.
