Wife is Fierce, Don't Mess With Her! Chapter 198 - The Young Gu Qingjiu

Chapter 198: The Young Gu Qingjiu

During dinner time, Qi Yuefeng prepared Gu Qingjiu’s favorite dish, West Lake Fish in Vinegar Gravy.

Gu Qingjiu helped her by the side.

Qi Yuefeng didn’t appear as relaxed as usual, and there was a sorrowful look in her eyes.

She seemed lifeless when she went about her tasks.

Gu Qingjiu reached out and caressed Qi Yuefeng’s brows, comforting her softly. “Mom, everything’s fine. Believe me, I’ll stay by your side forever.”

Qi Yuefeng snapped out of her trance. She felt heartened to hear Gu Qingjiu’s words.

She held Gu Qingjiu’s hand and pressed her warm palm against her face, tears flowing down instantly.

“Mom isn’t afraid of that. Actually, Mom is selfish.”

Next, she revealed to her something.

“Before we found you, Mom wanted a daughter. And at that time, I was pregnant. Both I and your father were thrilled. But perhaps we didn’t have much affinity with that child, I suffered a miscarriage in less than three months after conception.”

Gu Qingjiu froze, surprised to hear this secret.

“After the miscarriage, I was in great pain and there was a time where I felt like I didn’t want to live on. At that time, your older brother was still little, he was still in kindergarten. I didn’t dare tell your brother this. Perhaps it was a coincidence that after I returned from my hospital checkup, I found you on the way. At that time, you were only a little over a year old, and you couldn’t even speak and was squatting by the roadside. At first, we thought your parents were nearby, but as we watched over you for half a day, we still didn’t see anyone come back for you. You were obedient and didn’t cry or make a fuss either.”

“We went up to ask you, but you knew nothing and only smiled at us in a silly manner. If it was a human trafficker who found you, you might no longer be around. We called the police, but the police didn’t manage to find your parents. At that time, the police didn’t much care about it either. I admit I had selfish intentions back then. I had just suffered a miscarriage, and then I found you. The police sent you to the welfare center, but we couldn’t bear to see you end up there. So after some time, we adopted you.”

“Come to think of it now, if we waited longer, your parents might have shown up to claim you. And you wouldn’t have suffered a hards.h.i.+p with us for so many years…”

Qi Yuefeng wept as she spoke. Gu Qingjiu went up to embrace her, her voice quivering a little. “Mom, how can you call that a suffering hards.h.i.+p? I was extremely lucky to have met you. Else, I might be suffering elsewhere now. I want to thank you for finding me and giving me a second lease of life.”

Qi Yuefeng’s words made Gu Qingjiu feel more and more suspicious.

Perhaps it wasn’t an accident that the Yu family lost her.

With the Yu family’s means, they would certainly be able to look after her well. Moreover, her Gu parents had reported to the police back then.

Didn’t it occur to them to report to the police after their child went missing?

At the thought of this, Gu Qingjiu’s gaze turned colder.

If that was the case, the Yu family didn’t merely make her feel bitterly disappointed.

She felt extremely glad that they had abandoned her.

Else, how would she have met such wonderful parents?

She patted Qi Yuefeng on her shoulder, and she gently said, “Mom, look on the bright side. Perhaps Sister didn’t have the affinity to meet you, so she sent me to your side.”

Gu Qingjiu felt compa.s.sion towards that child, too.

She also knew that even if Qi Yuefeng hadn’t suffered a miscarriage when she found her, she probably would still adopt her.

Gu Qingjiu knew she was a kind and softhearted woman.
