Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“But you must take it easy yourself. Don’t overwork your body. When it comes to work, solve the issues that you can. If you can’t, just leave it. Your health comes first, understand?”

“You can’t wear yourself out at such a young age. You haven’t started a family or had children of your own yet. If you fall ill from overexertion and end up becoming infertile…”

Wei Xinyue started nagging incessantly.

Her original intention was to care about Ling Xuewei and remind her not to let herself get too tired but for some reason, she went off-topic as she spoke.

Ling Xuewei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

She really didn’t expect her mother to switch a work-related topic to getting married and having children.

She even felt that in her mother’s heart, she was an item in urgent need of a sale.

If she didn’t hurry up with the sale, she might be left on the shelves.

In fact, Ling Xuewei could understand why her mother had such a thought.

After all, her mother had lived in a small and backward village since she was young. The deep-rooted belief was that a woman must marry and have children in order to have a complete life.

Moreover, she had to get married as soon as possible, otherwise, the older she got, the harder it would be for her to get married.

If she were to delay until the end and become an old woman that no one wanted, then her life would be completely ruined.

This kind of belief could be said to be absolutely true in the era when her mother was young and living in that poor and isolated village but the problem was that the era had changed a long time ago.

S City was not that backward village.

Here, women did not only have to get married and have children.?They had to do so at a young age too.

Ling Xuewei was full of words, but she did not know where to begin.

In the end, she could only smile bitterly and shut her mouth to listen to her mother urge her to get married and have children because she knew that there was a huge generation gap between her and her mother. It could not be bridged with just a few words.

How could it be so easy to change one’s inherent views?

‘Forget it, I’ll just treat it as a small price to pay for having a mother again.’

God had let her regain what she had lost, and she once again got to enjoy the motherly love that she had longed for for more than 20 years. It was only right to pay a small price.

Ling Xuewei stroked the pendant on her chest. As she thought of this, all the annoyance in her heart slowly dissipated.

Finally, Wei Xinyue said that she was tired and stopped nagging.

Ling Xuewei took the opportunity to change the topic and asked her,?“Mom, why did you wear this pendant every day in the past? Does it have any special meaning?”

Wei Xinyue shook her head and said, “I actually don’t know what this thing is.?This was left behind by your grandmother. It seems to be a love token given to her by a young man who went to the countryside in her younger days.”

“Later, the educated young man returned to the city. When he left, he said that he would come back to fetch her to the city to get married after settling down.”

“But after he left, he never came back. Your grandmother waited for many years. Later, she almost became an old lady before she married your grandfather.?But she kept this thing hidden until she was about to die. It was still tightly held in her hands.”

“We thought that since she couldn’t let it go, we might as well let her be buried with this pendant but your grandfather refused to agree to anything. He took it out of your grandmother’s hand and threw it away.?I was still young at that time and didn’t understand what it was. I simply thought that something that my grandmother cared so much about shouldn’t be thrown away.”

“So I secretly picked it up and kept it hidden.?Later, when I grew up, I pieced together the story of your grandma from the words of my relatives. I understood that this thing had deceived your grandma for half of her life.”

“But after all, this was a keepsake that she couldn’t put down until the day she died. Moreover, she didn’t leave anything decent behind, so I didn’t throw it away. I kept it as a memento.”

When Wei Xinyue talked about these things, she seemed to have recalled many unpleasant memories from her childhood. She was suddenly in low spirits.

Ling Xuewei was a little worried. She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to withstand the impact of negative emotions and fall ill again.

So she tried to stop her a few times, but in the end, she couldn’t suppress her curiosity and continued listening.

In the end, Wei Xinyue was only in a dampened mood and did not show any signs of going crazy.

Only then did Ling Xuewei feel slightly relieved. At the same time, she was more convinced that Lin Bai’s acupuncture treatment was indeed effective.

Her mother’s mental illness should not relapse.

She asked carefully, “Then do you know the name of that young man from back then? What did he do when he went to the countryside?”

Wei Xinyue shook her head and smiled bitterly. “How would I know that?”

“That young man was a thorn in your grandfather’s heart. Every time he heard others mention him, he would lose his temper.?So, the relatives only dared to talk about it behind his back when he was not at home.”

“I was just a child at that time. I just sat by the side and listened to him. I didn’t dare to interrupt him.”

Ling Xuewei asked again, “Then did he never try to contact Grandma again?”

Wei Xinyue let out a mocking chuckle and asked in return,

“Do you think that’s possible??Men are all the same. Love is just talk. Only women would take it seriously.?When he returned to the city, he could get any beautiful girl he wanted. How could he still remember your grandma, a village girl??If he had come back to look for her, then the sun will rise from the west.”

After Wei Xinyue finished speaking, she realized that her words were too disheartening.

Her daughter had yet to get married and have children. She shouldn’t have instilled such negative thoughts into her daughter.

Otherwise, if Ling Xuewei gave up on men and gave up on the idea of getting married and having children, what would she do?

Thus, Wei Xinyue quickly went back to make up for it.

“But actually, this also depends on the person. Not all men are that bad.?For example, I think that Lin Bai is pretty good. You mustn’t have any objections to Lin Bai just because of what I said, right?”

“Didn’t you guys come into contact with each other at work? In that case, you should still treat him well in the future. You can’t embarrass yourself, understand?”

Ling Xuewei said helplessly, “We’re talking about the pendant that Grandma left behind. Why are we talking about Lin Bai Again??How many times have I said it? I’m really not familiar with him.”

Wei Xinyue said, “What does it matter if you’re not familiar with him? It won’t be long before you’re familiar with him!”

“Lin Bai is so handsome and treats you well. He even knows how to treat illnesses. What a good person!?You must hold on to him!”

Seeing that Wei Xinyue was about to repeat her words, Ling Xuewei quickly changed the topic.

“Mom, it’s almost time. Your medical report should be out by now. Let’s go take a look..”
