Chapter 37: Making a Fortune
Upon hearing Ding Yuejun’s words, Mo Guowei’s expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
Yiyi looked at the brand new notebook in her mother’s hand, her face filled with joy, "Mom, Shanshan, let’s go find Big Sister quickly."
Ding Yuejun smiled and nodded in response, "Alright, let’s go to the food factory to find your big sister." Having reached this point, she realized that she felt a lot lighter, as the marriage with Mo Guowei had long become a burden. Now that the burden was gone, she naturally felt relieved.
As Mo Guowei saw them about to leave, he waved his hand, but couldn’t utter a single word. It was only at this moment that he clearly recognized that he and Ding Yuejun really had nothing to do with each other anymore; they would be strangers from now on.
Even if Ding Yuejun noticed Mo Guowei’s gesture, she didn’t care at all. The man before her had absolutely nothing to do with her anymore, and from then on, she wouldn’t spare him another glance.
Once the three of them happily arrived at the food factory, they went straight to find Mo Xiaohong.
Mo Xiaohong was very happy to see them arrive, "Mom, Yiyi, what brings you here?" While speaking, she grabbed her daughter in a hug.
Mo Shan was very excited today. She wrapped her arms around her mother’s neck and said, "Mom, from now on, we can live with Grandma and Aunt. Grandma Zeng and Grandpa can’t scold us anymore."
Hearing her daughter’s words, Mo Xiaohong looked puzzled.
"Shanshan, what do you mean by that?"
Ding Yuejun didn’t hide anything and directly talked about her divorce from Mo Guowei, and finally mentioned that Mo Xiaohong was under her custody.
"Actually, I should have asked you first, but I couldn’t resist Shanshan just now, so temporarily you’re under my custody. If you want to be with your father, we can sort out the paperwork later."
"What... Mom, you... You and Dad divorced?"
Mo Xiaohong was utterly shocked at the moment. She never thought such a big event could happen in just a few days, "What exactly happened?"
Seeing Mo Xiaohong’s surprise, Yiyi recounted the whole incident, finally saying coldly, "Dad never considers us. Even when he knew I almost lost my life and knew that the wrong one was Qian Yafen, he still protected others and sacrificed us."
Upon hearing Yiyi’s words, Mo Xiaohong fell silent.
Because that’s how it was. Father had always treated them like that from childhood.
"Sister, do you really want to be with Father and not with Mother? Think about it carefully from when we were kids."
Yiyi reminisced with a face full of memories, recounting things from childhood, "I remember when I was eight, Father sacrificed our share of meat to give to Mo Ke Fei. Once, when Mo Meina fell on her own, she blamed us, and that time Father beat us to the point we couldn’t get out of bed. Such things happened too often; Father treated us like this from our childhood."
At the end of it, Yiyi sighed.
"Though, Sister, if you really want to stay with Father, I respect your choice. Then Shanshan will suffer, as there probably won’t be anyone at home to look after her. She might even be asked to do farm work since when we were Shanshan’s age, we were already doing chores bit by bit."
Seeing Mo Xiaohong silent, Yiyi spoke a lot about their childhood, afraid that Mo Xiaohong would make a rash decision due to familial affection.
Mo Xiaohong was still a bit hesitant, but upon hearing Yiyi’s words, she immediately made up her mind. She didn’t want her daughter to suffer in the Mo family, so she quickly said, "Yiyi, of course, I’m going with Mother, and Shanshan will definitely be with you. Since Father already abandoned us, we don’t need to care about him anymore."
Hearing Mo Xiaohong’s words, Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
The happiest one was Mo Shan, "Mom, from now on we’ll live with Grandma together."
Seeing her daughter so happy, Mo Xiaohong felt relieved. However, she was still somewhat worried afterward, "Mom, Yiyi, where are you planning to go next?"
"We’re planning to find a place to stay in town first."
On the way to the food factory just now, Yiyi had already found a hotel and put their luggage there, planning to find a place to live later. As long as they have left the Mo family, it would be fine.
Hearing this, Mo Xiaohong quickly asked, "Where are you going to live? How about I ask around first, see if someone can help find a place for you to stay."
"Sister, you don’t need to worry. We’ll find a good place and let you know when we do."
Ding Yuejun also smiled and said, "Yes, Xiaohong, you don’t have to worry about this. You go back to work first, and when you’re on break, we can have a good chat."
"Mom, I’ll have a break tomorrow, so I’ll come straight to you then."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yuejun smiled and nodded, "Alright, we’ll be staying at Shuntian Hotel near the food factory. Come directly to us tomorrow."
"Shuntian Hotel, I know where that is." Mo Xiaohong nodded, "Alright, I’ll come find you early in the morning."
After chatting for a bit more, they said their goodbyes.
Although Mo Shan was slightly reluctant to leave her mother, she also knew she couldn’t disturb her mother’s work, so she obediently followed Ding Yuejun and Yiyi back to the hotel.
When the three of them arrived at the hotel, Yiyi threw herself onto the bed and rolled over, "Great, from now on we won’t be lectured or made uncomfortable anymore."
Upon hearing her daughter’s words, Ding Yuejun couldn’t help but say, "Yiyi, it’s all Mom’s fault for letting you suffer so much since childhood."
Yiyi quickly said, "Mom, how can it be your fault? Besides, we need to look forward and not dwell on the past."
"Alright, we will look forward."
Mo Shan also jumped in, smiling brightly and said, "Grandma, Aunt, I will look forward too."
Hearing Mo Shan’s words, Ding Yuejun and Yiyi both laughed, and after resting for a bit, the three of them went out for a meal.
"Mom, you and Shanshan go back to the room first, I’ll go out for a walk and also see where we can rent a room." Having sent Ding Yuejun and Mo Shan to the hotel, Yiyi waved goodbye to the two.
Upon hearing her daughter’s words, Ding Yuejun quickly said, "Yiyi, we’ll go with you."
"Mom, it’s fine. I can go by myself. I’m pretty familiar with this area." After saying that, Yiyi ran off directly. However, she didn’t stroll around the town but quietly went back to Luwei Village.
When Yiyi returned to the town again, her eyes were filled with laughter.
At that moment, the Mo family received a visitor, Weng Taixiang, Mr. Mo’s sister-in-law.
"Sister-in-law, this is incredible. I heard that your second daughter-in-law has made a lot of money."
