Chapter 1044: Final Choice

on Wei's back, walking leisurely through the forest. Because it was harvest season, many things had ripened. Along the way, Ripple didn't idle either, directing the three of them to collect a lot of t...Half an hour later, Qingmei came back with Lianyi. Qinghai was sent by Lianyi to call Qingchuan, asking him to come home an hour early.

And Qing Mei looked at her mother with admiration, she really didn't expect that her mother had thought so far ahead.

Song Qingchuan saw his younger brother rushing to find him, thinking that something must have happened at home. He hurriedly asked for an hour's leave from his squad leader and drove his younger brother home.

"Mom, are you feeling unwell"

Song Qingchuan rode his bicycle while asking.

You'll know when you get home. I have to admit, I finally understand how amazing our mom is. No wonder she raised all of us so well.

Song Qinghai spoke out loudly.

Song Qingchuan knew the road wasn't a place to talk about things, so he increased his speed and rode home.

As I entered my own alleyway, I brushed past a young boy.

"Huh Why did his aura improve"

A gruff voice sounded in the boy's ear.

The boy's footsteps faltered, he turned his head and saw only the tail of a bicycle.

“I'm closer to Qinghai, so I should go talk to him”

"Ok."

Then the boy turned and left.

When Song Dachuan returned home, he saw his whole family gathered in his mother's room. Even his beloved daughter was blowing bubbles on his mother's bed.

"Mom, why did you call me back so urgently Is something the matter"

"There's something, you all sit down. This is something you all have the right to know about."

Ripple didn't beat around the bush and explained the whole situation in detail.

About the compensation, family members know more or less about it. It's not a secret, but none of my siblings have ever thought about that money. That was hard-earned by our eldest brother with his life and it will definitely be used for Da Bao and our mother in the future.

But as for the latter half, they truly didn't know. Especially Li Juan, after hearing this, her face darkened and she said:

"Mom, Yu Meifeng has another man. The child in her womb isn't related to my elder brother at all, so she doesn't deserve a single penny."

Ripples sighed and said:

"Juanzi is right, that money was earned with your eldest brother's life. Of course, I don't want to give the money to that woman, but some things can't be decided that way.

"

Now that your older brother is gone, I also have to consider Dabao's future, as well as Qinghai and Qingmei, who are about to look for jobs. The family can't afford any more upheaval.

Actually, I also want to make a scene and vent for Shanzi, but this town is so small. If this gets out, Da Bao will have such an immoral mother. How can Da Bao behave himself in the future

Besides, if we push Yu Meifeng too far and she gets rid of the child, we'll have no evidence. It will be a dead end, and she can turn things around later and accuse our Song family of being unprincipled and ungrateful. Our reputation will be ruined.

Everyone fell silent after hearing this. It seemed their mother had thought everything through, and it was all for their own good.

"I did this not only to avoid a complete break with Yu Meifeng, but also to avert disaster by spending money. Another reason is to completely win custody of Dabao and cut off Yu Meifeng's future use of her status as his biological mother to pressure him into supporting her."

Ripple then said another reason why she did this.

Dabao innocently leaned against Lianyi's side. He knew his family was discussing him, so he just listened quietly.

"Mom, you decide what to do with this. Anyway, this money was left by your eldest son for the children. You get to decide how it's used. You've lived longer than I have and have more experience. You consider things thoroughly, so [Sister-in-law] and I have no objections."

Song Qingchuan immediately voiced his agreement, and Li Juan also nodded in assent.

"Mom, I hear you."

Song Qinghai also expressed his stance.

"Mom, I also listen to you."

Song Qingmei also followed her fourth brother's words and said.

"Don't worry, this money will be used to buy a house for our eldest son and pay for his education. The rest will be saved, and we can use it if there are any emergencies at home."

Even ripples don't say everything definitively, there should always be some room for thought.

"Alright, I'll listen to Mom."

This made the siblings feel comfortable.

"When Yu Meifeng comes later, don't reveal anything. Act natural. Just wait until she signs the abandonment declaration and transfers her household registration out of our family, then spread the word."

But remember, don't say that she was unfaithful to Qingshan. Just say that she doesn't want to stay put and wants to take another step forward. Our Song family is also understanding, we won't stop her. The child will remain under the care of the Song family, so she won't be burdened. We have also given her a compensation payment from Qingshan.

Ripples softly instructed.

After hearing this, Juanzi smiled faintly. Her mother-in-law was spending money to buy peace and a good reputation for the Song family, and at the same time, she was blackening Yu Meifeng's name. This money felt hot in her hands, and she didn't know if she could keep it.

At this time, the courtyard gate rang, and Yu Meifeng came alone. Seeing the Song family gathered in the ripples house, she smiled awkwardly and then sat down.

"Meifeng, this is the draft of the abandonment letter I've prepared. This was written with the help of Qinghai and Qingmei after they took me to the police station."

The ripples pushed the finished manuscript to Yu Mei-feng.

It was only then that Yu Meifeng realized her mother-in-law had ulterior motives. She wanted to back out, but she couldn't bear to lose the money. She was present during the negotiations with the Chen family, and it was a whopping ten thousand yuan, no small sum. Even a third of it would be three thousand, which was almost ten years' worth of her monthly salary, which was just over thirty something at the moment.

"Mom, do we have to do this Big Bro is my son too."

Yu Mei-feng whispered.

“You’re still young and can have more children, but Qingshan only left me with this one. And you’ll be forming a new family later, your new husband won’t possibly treat Dabao as his own. So it might be better to cut ties from the beginning, so the child wouldn't get hurt.”

Liàn yī however didn't want to leave any regrets for herself, so she spoke very clearly.

Then I want to ask the child.

Yu Mei-fen still wants to try and fight for it.

"Alright, ask Dabao!"

Rill didn't stop the ripple effect, she touched Da Bao's head and motioned for him to go in front of his mother.

"Dabao, come here. Mom wants to ask you a few questions."

Dabao looked at his grandmother, then walked up to Yu Meifeng and politely called her "Mom".

"Da Bao, don't you want to recognize Mommy anymore"

Yu Meifeng took Dabao's hand and asked.

"Mommy will have a new brother, and my brother will have a new dad. I guess I'll stay here with Grandma then!"

Dabao is five years old. Although he's still a little clueless, he knows who is truly good to him. Just now, even though Mom asked him in a gentle voice, her grip on his hand was so tight it hurt him. He gasped and pulled his hand away forcefully, then turned and ran back to grandma's side.

"Grandma, my hand hurts!"

Dabo complained to Lianyi.

Ripples tugged at Da Bao's hand, looking at the already slightly reddened wrist, she glanced at Yu Mei Feng with displeasure and said:

"Now you can change your mind if you want to. Since you're not willing to let go of the child, why don't you move back home We can talk about it after the baby is born."

Ripples won't make her act like she's both present and absent in front of her family.

"Mom, I've signed."that if he continued like this, he would be utterly defeated. He then put away his peacock feathers and began to study diligently, determined to find at least one skill that could give him an edge ove...
