Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 771 - 766: Deep Reflection

Speaking of whether Zhou Yunmei is Luo Zhiyong’s biological mother, actually, in the current situation, Fang Pingying doesn’t mind.

On the contrary, she feels relieved. If Zhou Yunmei truly isn’t Luo Zhiyong’s biological mother, then maybe many things don’t have to be as cautiously considered as before.

Although there’s a saying that a foster mother is greater than a biological one, if a foster mother raises a child just for benefits, and after getting what she wants, she even goes on to exploit the son, then what’s there to worry about?

To be honest, even though it’s said that Luo Zhiyong was raised by her, Luo Zhiyong has grown up, and whatever debts or gratitude needed repaying, have been repaid.

Over the years, not only did he take care of his parents, but he also looked after his siblings, allowing them to eat and spend freely, while he was always frugal in the army. Thinking back to when she first married him, Luo Zhiyong truly had no decent clothes to wear, and he tried his best.

When Hui Zi went to pick up Luo Dashan, Fang Pingying instructed him to say that Luo Cuilan had returned, knowing that Luo Dashan kept missing her, and asked Luo Dashan and Luo Honglan to visit.

Fang Pingying was somewhat worried that if Luo Dashan learned that his children knew about his past affairs, he would find it hard to face Luo Zhiyong.

Coincidentally, when Hui Zi went, Luo Zhiming and Zhou Yunmei were also with Luo Dashan.

Zhou Yunmei reacted quite swiftly afterward. Once she confirmed that the child born by Xu He wasn’t Luo Zhiming’s, she took some money from Luo Zhiming and immediately went to Luo Dashan.

This time, she changed her tactics, unlike before when she was always fierce and heavy-handed. Instead, she lowered herself, and as soon as she arrived at Luo Dashan, she tearfully admitted her mistakes, saying she did so many wrong things under Xu He’s influence, which caused the family to be separated for so long, and she deserved to die.

In front of Luo Dashan, Zhou Yunmei was truly weeping bitterly, beating herself as she spoke heart-wrenching words, which deeply moved Luo Dashan, and in the end, even his eyes were red.

For Luo Dashan, although he’s lived well in the city with his son and daughter for more than a year, without worrying about food or clothing, and he never lacked money, his son and daughter ultimately have their lives. Most of the time, he’s at home alone, often without someone to talk to. In times of loneliness, he naturally thought of the days in the countryside, and the days relying on each other with Zhou Yunmei.

However, because Zhou Yunmei did so many wrong things, he couldn’t forgive her easily, so even if he had some attachments, he would never think of easily forgiving Zhou Yunmei.

Now, however, Zhou Yunmei has so completely admitted her faults in front of him, repeatedly insisting many things were not her intention, just mistakes made by believing Xu He, which softened Luo Dashan’s heart.

After all, despite everything, even though Zhou Yunmei did so many wrong things, what Luo Dashan really wanted was just a change in attitude from Zhou Yunmei. They spent a lifetime together, with his roots in the countryside. If possible, he would still prefer to return to the countryside and return to his roots.

When Hui Zi arrived at Luo Dashan, Zhou Yunmei was kneeling before Luo Dashan, deeply reflecting on the mistakes she made over the years, in a display quite capable of moving listeners to sadness and witnesses to tears. Not only Luo Dashan was moved, but even Luo Zhiming and Luo Honglan on the side were tearing up because of her.

When Hui Zi saw such a scene, he found it a bit awkward and stood by the door for a while.

Later, when the crying inside subsided, he appeared and said to Luo Dashan, "Old man, Sister Fang and Battalion Commander Luo asked me to invite you over."

Luo Dashan wasn’t aware of the matters between Fang Pingying, them, and Xu He. Upon hearing that Luo Zhiyong wanted him over, but with Zhou Yunmei there, it seemed inconvenient, so he thought of not going that day and said, "Is there something urgent with Zhiyong? Otherwise, can I come over in a few days?"

According to what Fang Pingying told him, Hui Zi said, "Sister Fang said she found Sister Cuilan and wants you to come over and see."

As soon as they heard that Luo Cuilan was found, the Luo Family was overjoyed. Luo Dashan eagerly asked, "Found Cuilan, really?"

"Is my sister alright?" Even Luo Honglan and Luo Zhiming asked in unison about Luo Cuilan’s situation.

Hui Zi didn’t know how to explain specifically, so he simply said, "Nothing much, you’ll know once you go and see."

Since it’s said that Luo Cuilan had returned, Luo Dashan also agreed to go and told Hui Zi, "Alright, we’ll go now, you wait downstairs."

Hui Zi nodded and turned around to go downstairs.

Watching Hui Zi’s back, thinking about Hui Zi’s respect for Luo Dashan, Zhou Yunmei stopped crying, puzzled, "Who’s this person from the Fang Family, why don’t I know him."

Luo Dashan replied, "He’s the Fang family’s driver, drives for Pingying, named Hui Zi, a very nice person."

Zhou Yunmei was so shocked her mouth was wide open. In her view, being able to afford a car already means being wealthy to a certain level, let alone hiring a driver. She wondered just how much money is Fang Pingying earning to live like the rich people in the city.

She looked at Luo Dashan in disbelief, "Drives for Pingying?"

Halfway through, she realized her attitude seemed off, and quickly added, "Pingying even bought a car?"

Luo Dashan understood why Zhou Yunmei was so surprised. He gave her a glance with a hint of reproach, and also with some pride for Fang Pingying, saying, "Yes, Pingying is much more capable than you think, and infinitely better than that supposedly good daughter-in-law Xu He you had in mind. You were the one blind back then, not seeing clearly."

"Yes, yes, I was blind back then to think Xu He was good." By now, Zhou Yunmei understood she couldn’t argue about these things anymore. She was well aware that if she wanted Luo Dashan to forgive her and accept her again, Luo Dashan’s attitude didn’t matter as much as that of Luo Zhiyong and Fang Pingying, who held the decisive role. If she wanted to please Luo Dashan, she must also please Luo Zhiyong and them; she wouldn’t speak ill of Fang Pingying anymore.

She thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "So, while you’re going to Pingying’s, can Zhiming and I also come along to see Haohao? After all, he’s Zhiming’s only hope now."

Luo Dashan, recalling what Zhou Yunmei had done to Haohao before, disagreed, "You’d better not go this time. Once I’m there, I’ll ask Pingying and them. If they agree, then perhaps you can find a day to visit, buy some things, and I’ll accompany you to see Haohao."

"I..." Zhou Yunmei stammered, reluctant.
