Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

Fang Xia was being pointed by a child and getting scolded, and she felt extremely unhappy. “Qianshu, this is what you have said. You want to teach your son, yet look at what you have taught?”

“Look at what plaything you have taught? Luckily, my mommy left the Shen family, so she could live such an exciting life. Your family’s genes are dirty, smelly, and are specialized in bloodsucking.” Little Tong Hua scolded without any mercy. He was so angry that he was trembling.

“You... ”

“Enough, Mom. I have already said that it’s impossible!” Shen Qianshu yelled, keeping all the gentleness and hopes within her. “I will never forget the 18 years of gratitude for raising me. Wait till you are old. I will not let you beg on the streets. I will give you all a statutory allowance every month. I have already said so obviously and so clearly, and don’t you bring disgrace to yourself again. Mom, you are being scolded by a child. Aren’t you ashamed?”

Even a child understands the reason, why can’t you understand!

“Qianshu, do you really have to be so ruthless?”

“Mom, you search for your conscience. You asked me to return the gratitude for 18 years of raising me. Aren’t you ruthless?”

Fang Xia did not have any way to convince Shen Qianshu, and tears fell from her eyes. Little Tong Hua was filled with anger and was about to have an outburst when Shen Qianshu stroked his head. Little Tong Hua’s heart was aching. He felt that it was not worth it for his mommy.

“Mom also doesn’t have a choice. Recently, the family business has not been good. Your dad has been so anxious that he has quite a number of strands of white hair. Xiaolin was humiliated at the jewelry competition and had been moody and always in tears. Mom doesn’t have a choice.”

Shen Qianshu sighed. Fang Xia was hateful, but she was also sad. She had been living for her family members and always protecting her family members blindly. People who were considered her family members were very blessed. She had always looked after her family members meticulously and put her family members first. She had never argued with anything that Shen Xiong said. She was a very typical woman of Confucian teaching.

Hence, when Shen Xiong chased her away, Fang Xia did not say anything and only dared to wipe her tears secretly.

“Every person has his or her own religious practice. In career, no one can help anyone. Mom, you don’t waste your effort.”

“You can help us, can help your dad, and can help Xiaolin. Your relationship with Ye Yifan is quite close, and you are also on good terms with CEO Li. As long as AG and GK can work together with our family, the Shen family’s difficulties can be overcome. As long as you can draw a picture for Xiaolin, when she wins, Xiaolin can also regain her glory. Everything will be settled. Qianshu, mom is begging you, on account of mom’s feelings... ”

Shen Qianshu smiled slightly. Her smile was sweet and happy and was like that of a naive child who had never suffered any setbacks. “Mom, there are words which I have already said. The Shen family and I have broken off all ties. Can you give up? Walk slowly, I am not sending you. My child doesn’t welcome you.”

Fang Xia stared with her eyes becoming round. It was like she was in disbelief. She did not believe that Shen Qianshu was actually so heartless and had ordered her as a guest to leave.

“Oh yes, in the future when you are old, send your post to this address. I will follow the statutory allowance and send money to you every month.” Shen Qianshu stood up, walked to the door, opened the door, and looked at her courteously. “Madam Shen, please!”

Fang Xia’s eardrums seemed to be struck by something. All the way until she came out from the door and after Shen Qianshu closed the door, she was still in a trance. Her daughter seemed to have treated her as a stranger, calling her Madam Shen.

Had she completely lost Qianshu?

But what had she done wrong? The Shen family was on the brink of bankruptcy; Xiaolin’s career had been blocked; only Qianshu could help. They had raised Qianshu for 18 years, why was she not willing to help? This was just a simple matter to Qianshu.

Shen Qianshu leaned on the door. Little Tong Hua walked over, opened both arms, and hugged Shen Qianshu’s leg. He raised his head and had the look of a little man. “Mommy, don’t be sad. You still have me.”
