Chapter 192: Sad and Pitiful
She just made the best decision.
She wiped her tears with her sleeves.
"Life was so hard back then. If I hadn't been forced into this, I wouldn't have wanted to sell Yuting. She's so pretty... If I took good care of her, she could have found a wealthy family to be my concubine when she grew up."
"I really didn't expect that she would be so lucky to meet your father, the Minister. Speaking of which, your mother should thank me for the choice I made. Otherwise, how could she have become the Minister's concubine? If she hadn't married into the Zhou family, you, the Imperial Concubine, wouldn't have had the blessing of entering the palace..."
Madam Liu said this with a smug look on her face.
She didn't feel that she was wrong at all. Instead, she felt that her original decision was extremely correct.
Bang... Zhou Lingge couldn't bear it anymore, so he picked up the plate of pastries on the table and smashed it hard at Old Madam Liu.
"Lucky? Oh, so that's what you think... In your heart, you've never felt any sympathy or guilt towards my mother. Have you ever thought about what she was thinking at the moment of her death?"
"You brought her into this world, but instead of protecting her, you pushed her into the fire. She hasn't had a single good day in her life. Do you know what a hard life she's been through in those brothels?"
"Do you know... how she managed to survive that brutal cage in the Shangshu Mansion, bit by bit, through blood and tears? My mother, even until her death... she was still calling her mother. But what about you? Where were you? She died, and before her body was even cold, no one buried her. The Zhou family rolled her away on a broken mat and threw her into a mass grave."
"It was me...it was me who begged my father so hard, practically breaking my head, that finally he relented and bought a flimsy coffin for my mother and buried her in the wilderness, leaving her a homeless, lonely ghost. My mother...she suffered so much in life, and she didn't have a good end in death. Where are all of you, my so-called relatives?"
Zhou Lingge could no longer control himself, and he screamed and howled at Old Madam Liu like a madman.
Her heart really hurts.
She felt especially sorry for her mother.
Until the moment of her death, her mother longed for her relatives to redeem her.
Her mother left with regret.
She wanted to meet the Liu family and her mother's biological mother. As long as Old Madam Liu felt a little guilty about her mother, she would forgive them and treat them well on her mother's behalf.
But she didn't, they didn't feel any guilt towards their mother.
Ever since they stepped into this hall, their eyes were filled with greed and envy.
All they think about is wealth and glory...
They didn't feel any guilt towards her mother at all.
She hated them and wanted to cut them into pieces.
There was a sinister glint in Zhou Lingge's eyes, and that look was like a knife, scraping at them fiercely.
Old Madam Liu was almost frightened silly.
The basin hit her on the head and blood immediately flowed from her forehead.
Liu An'er threw herself into Liu Chengqiang's arms and screamed in fright.
Liu Yuxia knelt on the ground, shaking, hardly daring to raise her head.
When she thought of her sister's gentle and beautiful smile, her heart ached.
The strong sense of guilt was like a tide...almost swallowing her whole.
Woo woo, sister.
It was they who felt sorry for her.
Everyone in the Liu family owes my sister.
Qiao'er looked at Zhou Lingge, who was out of control of her emotions, with worry in her eyes, and supported her arm.
"Mother, are you okay?"
Zhou Lingge closed her eyes, and lines of crystal tears slowly flowed down.
"Drag them away... drag them all away. I never want to see them again."
Her only remaining hope disappeared into thin air.
The Liu family doesn't deserve her mother's forgiveness at all!
Old Madam Liu was so frightened that she kowtowed with blood on her forehead and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, please spare me. I was wrong. Please don't be angry."
"Your Majesty, please calm down. No matter what, we are all your mother's blood relatives..."
Zhou Lingge sneered, her eyes tinged with coldness as she stared coldly at Old Madam Liu: "You still know that my mother is your blood relative?"
"How many years has it been since my mother left the Liu family? If you wanted to find her over the years, wouldn't you have been able to find her? If you wanted to find me, wouldn't you have been able to find any clues?"
"But you didn't look for her... You already thought my mother was dead. To you, a lowly singer is a disgrace to your Liu family. How could you possibly want to bring my mother back?"
"Zhou Yi sent you into the palace simply to use you and persuade me to release the Song family. Haha... he was wrong. I will not acknowledge you. You are not worthy of being my family. I will not let go of that vicious woman who killed my mother. Anyone who has let my mother down, anyone who has bullied her, I will not let go."
"You deserve to die, all of you deserve to die... Drag them away and throw them all into the Sky Prison..."
Perhaps because he was too angry, Zhou Lingge only felt a layer of darkness flash before his eyes.
She stumbled back a step.
Qin Feiling stepped into the inner hall and saw Zhou Lingge's shaky body. He rushed over and supported her arm.
"Ge'er, are you okay?"
Zhou Lingge was stunned. She looked up at Qin Feiling in a daze.
Her nose ached so much that she could no longer hold back her tears. "Your Majesty... I feel so sorry for my mother. She has never received any warmth or kindness in her life. She is so kind and wonderful, but why did they let her down? Why did they hurt her again and again?"
"When my mother died, she was still longing for family affection...but her relatives never thought of her. They were selfish and vicious to the extreme...it was they who made my mother's life so tragic and pitiful."
No…it’s not just her mother.
She is as pathetic as her mother.
In her previous life... she was really too lonely and longed for warmth.
So when Zhou Shiya gave her a steamed bun as alms, she was grateful to her and forgot all the harm and humiliation that Mrs. Zhou had brought her.
Zhou Shiya thus became the person she trusted and relied on the most.
When Han Mubai held his sincere heart and presented his youthful love to her without any concealment, her heart beat wildly. She thought that there should be no other man in the world who loved her more than this man.
So she gave her whole heart to Han Mubai.
She did everything she could to be with him.
