Ning Meng Yao could only go to bed when it was so late at night, but Xiao Cheng Ya would knock on her door early the next day to wake her up, and she also did not allow her to take naps during the day. Perhaps Xiao Cheng Ya was the only one who actually did not notice how much patience Ning Meng Yao had given her.
“Are those things more important than her child? Can’t she just let go of those matters for a while?” Xiao Cheng Ya said in an even more dissatisfied tone. Ning Meng Yao was pregnant, yet she was still so busy, no wonder she experienced symptoms of miscarriage.
Bai Mo almost laughed at Xiao Cheng Ya’s words. What exactly did she not understand from what he said?
“Why have you become like this, Ya’er? You also know what the situation at Xiao Empire and Miaojiang are like. Meng Yao, as the two places’ major decision maker, how could you ask her to let go of the matter during this critical moment? How could you say such a thing?” Bai Mo could not believe what Xiao Cheng Ya said.
Xiao Cheng Ya was speechless, and she staggered to say something: “I…”
“Stop saying that you’re doing all this for her sake. If you’re really doing it for her, and you don’t want her to stay farther and farther away from you, then you should support her in whatever she does. Don’t be like how you were last time, interfering with her decision, that will not do you any good.” Bai Mo looked at Xiao Cheng Ya seriously. Things would only get more and more troublesome if he still could not get her to understand her mistakes.
Xiao Cheng Ya wanted to refute, but when she saw Bai Mo’s eyes, she was suddenly at a loss for words, and she nodded eventually: “I understand.”
Ning Meng Yao and Qiao Tian Chang seemed to be fine when they returned that night, but Bai Mo knew that the girl was angry now, in fact, she was still very angry.
Xiao Cheng Ya hurried over when she saw them returning home, she took Ning Meng Yao’s hand and looked at her worriedly: “Yao’er, are you okay? Go have some rest, Qing Xue, you guys, come, bring the soup over.” She quickly ordered a list of commands.
Ning Meng Yao, who had calmed down earlier, suddenly became very angry when she heard those words.
She broke away from Xiao Cheng Ya’s hands, and looked over at Qing Zhu and the rest before saying: “From the moment I step in this house, you guys don’t have to prepare any tonic soup if I didn’t ask for it. And I know she is my mother, but you all don’t need to listen to everything she says.”
Bai Mo knew that things were going to be bad from the moment Xiao Cheng Ya spoke. From what Ning Meng Yao said, he understood that she could not stand Xiao Cheng Ya’s control any longer.
“Yao Er, you are being very rude.” Xiao Cheng Ya said frowningly, “Didn’t anyone teach you to respect your elders?”
Ning Meng Yao glanced at Xiao Cheng Ya lightly, and then sneered: “You think I don’t respect you? Well then, I’m truly sorry. I grew up eating other people’s meals. The old grandma that took care of me died when I was four, then I grew up relying on the alms of the villagers, and I almost starved to death at 8 years old.” Ning Meng Yao talked about her childhood very calmly, which made Bai Mo have a headache. Xiao Cheng Ya had really crossed the line this time.
Xiao Cheng Ya was a princess. She had been very strict about rules since she was a child. Therefore, she naturally wanted strict requirements for her daughter now, but she had forgotten how Ning Meng Yao’s childhood was. She did not live in the courtyard of the palace. Growing up, she was just a child who grew up in a remote village. Did it tear open her scars to talk about her childhood?
“In order to have something to eat, I once snatched food from a dog and I was also beaten by others… Even eating was a problem for me, who was there to teach me these? Now, you rely on the fact that you were the one who gave birth to me and want to control my life? Do you really think that I don’t know that you scolded Tian Chang? I was just bearing with you, so what qualifications do you have now to say that I have no respect?” Ning Meng Yao stared at Xiao Cheng Ya as she spat every word at her.
This mother of hers had been in a coma for nearly two decades, one did not expect that the morals drilled in her bones were still there.
Xiao Cheng Ya was scared by Ning Meng Yao’s words that her face turned pale. She had never thought that her daughter had lived such a miserable life when she was a child.
“That’s not what I mean.”
“It doesn’t matter what you mean. I understand what you mean. You think that just because I’m your daughter, you can control my life, and I have to listen to whatever you say. Well, all of this is just your ridiculous desire to control.”
