Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 849 - 6: Extra Story 6
Zhou Yunmei came this time with the genuine intention of admitting her mistakes. She hoped that her family would forgive her and accept her, considering that she had already been punished. She promised that she would never make mistakes again and would live an honest life with her family.
This time, Zhou Yunmei did not dare to have any more schemes. She had thoroughly realized that if she played any more tricks, she possibly wouldn't even know how she died.
Today's Fang Pingying was not the same as before. In the past, she at least considered that Zhou Yunmei was Luo Zhiyong's mother. Now, she didn't need to care about any of that.
Besides, given her current situation, what kind of schemes could she possibly manage?
Unfortunately, even though Zhou Yunmei had finally come to her senses, it was too late. After all, after a person has committed too many wrongs, it's impossible to simply start over. Life never offers a second chance, and everyone should face the consequences of their actions.
Especially for someone like Zhou Yunmei, whose biggest mistake was destroying her relationships with her children and Luo Dashan for the sake of money and her own benefits, ultimately leading to her being completely isolated and abandoned by everyone.
Therefore, no matter how tearfully Zhou Yunmei spoke this time, Fang Pingying and the others listening on the side were indifferent.
When she finished speaking, Fang Pingying calmly said, "Zhou Yunmei, you are suffering now because of the seeds you sowed in the past. If I were you, I wouldn't have the face to come here asking for sympathy. I don't understand why you thought we would forgive you."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunmei immediately started crying again, pitiably pleading with Fang Pingying, "Pingying, I truly realize my mistakes this time, I know I'm wrong."
Fang Pingying was already tired of hearing Zhou Yunmei say she knows her mistakes. She frowned, took a step back, and made it clear that even if Zhou Yunmei died here today, she wouldn't care.
Seeing this, Zhou Yunmei had no choice but to turn to Luo Dashan, "Dashan, I..."
Luo Dashan looked at Zhou Yunmei and sighed, but in the end, he spoke to her with an emotionless tone, "Yunmei, we divorced when you were imprisoned. Legally, we have no relation anymore. You shouldn't have come to me today, I can't help you."
"Da..."
Seeing Zhou Yunmei trying to persist, Luo Dashan shook his head at her and simply laid it out, "I am old now, and with all the recent family issues, I've come to realize many things. Whether or not I have someone by my side doesn't matter anymore. I can live well by myself, especially since I have many filial children around me. I am very content."
However, being soft-hearted, Luo Dashan finally said, "For the sake of us once being married, Yunmei, I advise you, don't linger around the city. Go back to the countryside. No matter what, the family still has a few acres of land, you can still grow some things yourself, plus the money you carry with you, you can live a good life."
Speaking of money, Zhou Yunmei seemed even more saddened, "What money, I don't have any money, haven't you heard Zhiming tell you?"
"What?" Luo Dashan and the others found these words strange, as Zhou Yunmei had quite a bit of money back then.
Very soon, Zhou Yunmei explained, "Not long after I went to prison, that damned Xu He, to get back at me, deliberately said he wanted to see Shuanzi, then told Shuanzi that all the money from selling the child was with me. He asked Shuanzi to demand money from Zhiming."
"When I went to prison, I gave all the money to Zhiming, asking him to keep it for me, but Zhiming, being honest, said the money wasn't ours to begin with. As soon as Shuanzi asked for it, he gave all the money to Shuanzi. When I got out and went to Zhiming for money, Zhiming only gave me US$ 100 to travel back to the countryside. I can now say I have nothing, and in a few days, I might not even have food to eat..."
Before Zhou Yunmei could finish speaking, Fang Pingying knew she was about to start lamenting about her pitiful state again, so she simply interrupted her words, saying, "Since even Zhiming doesn't intend to take care of you anymore and wants you to go home, I think you should go. Stop begging this one and that one. If begging was useful, you wouldn't be in this situation."
Having said that, Fang Pingying then called out to Luo Dashan and Luo Honglan, "Dad, pack your things, I'll take you to my place for the New Year."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunmei's eyes lit up, and she moved her lips, seeming about to speak, but Fang Pingying beat her to it, looking at her and saying, "Zhou Yunmei, I warn you, don't even think about making trouble at our house like before. We have very strict security, and if you cause too much trouble, you'll definitely be sent back to the Police Station again, and by then, as a repeat offender, it might not just be a six-month sentence."
"Perhaps for you, that might be the best outcome. You reap what you sow. Think about everything you've done before. This isn't the worst that could happen to you. If I truly wanted you to suffer more, I could totally make it happen."
"Dad, let's go." With that, Fang Pingying called for Luo Dashan and Luo Honglan to pack their things, close the door, and head downstairs.
Left behind was Zhou Yunmei, alone, leaning on her cane, standing in front of Luo Dashan's door, unable to come to her senses for a long time.
Indeed, at this moment, Zhou Yunmei truly regretted it. She regretted why she made so many mistakes in the past, why she disregarded family ties, behaving as if possessed, causing so much harm to her family.
Back then, she didn't even know what she was thinking, mingling with someone like Xu He and willing to offend Fang Pingying.
She felt like she was truly bewitched by someone back then, leading to her current state, with no one to rely on.
Even her only beloved, Luo Zhiming, was very cold towards her because of the situation with Haohao. Although not to the point of abandoning her, Luo Zhiming made it very clear that in the future, besides sending her some living expenses monthly, he wouldn't do anything else.
As for her wanting to see Haohao or anything, that was out of the question, as even he himself didn't want to see Zhou Yunmei anymore.
So the only thing Zhou Yunmei could do was drag her disabled leg back to the countryside, and then wait for the little money Luo Zhiming sent back every month and live life frugally. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
No matter if she got sick or couldn't manage on her own, no one would care anymore.
And all of this was her own doing, no one else could be blamed.
No matter if she cried and wailed or screamed in regret, it didn't matter anymore; it was already too late.
