Chapter 392: Chapter 395 Acknowledging the Mistake_1
Bao’s felt prideful for so long, suddenly being made to lower her head filled her heart with resentment, almost tearing her clothes apart.
But the circumstances were pressing, her natal family was absent, and the Huang Family members were united in heart; if she didn’t want to become a divorced woman, she had no choice but to bow her head and admit her wrongs.
The three members of the Huang Family all looked at Bao’s, and this sudden change surprised them greatly.
Bao’s actually apologizing? How could this be possible?
Seeing their disbelief, Bao’s continued, "It’s just that these past few days I lost money playing mahjong, I was so frustrated. If I didn’t let it out, I felt like I would be stifled to death, so I really didn’t know what I was doing."
"I truly didn’t do it on purpose, please forgive me this once. I swear I’ll never do this again!"
"I gave birth to Big Dog and Second Dog for the Huang Family, besides me, who would give their whole heart for their well-being? My methods may not be upright, but which of my actions wasn’t meant to save more for them? I don’t want them to have to work as hard as you in the future," she said.
Bao’s, with tears streaming down her face, spoke with utmost sincerity, and the Huang Family members calmed down.
Because the mention of Big Dog and Second Dog struck a chord in their hearts.
The matter of stepmothers harshly treating children happened often, how could they bear to let their treasures endure such hardship? 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Thus, the Huang Family’s hearts softened.
Suddenly, Chen Yiling spoke up, "Since your words alone lack credibility, how about I write a written pledge for you?"
"Uncle, Aunt, I think Ling’er is making sense," Qiao Duo’er voiced her opinion.
This was someone else’s family matter, and she shouldn’t interfere, but the Huang couple had been wholeheartedly kind to her and Tan Zhenghong, how could she stand idly by?
Huang Zhong looked at his parents before saying, "If you dare to make a written pledge, we will let this go, but if you don’t, we will sever ties."
Bao’s clenched her teeth, "I’ll make the written pledge."
They reached a unanimous decision, and Uncle Huang brought out paper and pen.
They were inferior goods, kept for keeping accounts.
Chen Yiling didn’t mind, and regardless of the poor quality of the paper and pen, she could still write a beautiful script. It wasn’t long before she finished writing the guarantee.
The gist of it was that if Bao’s showed any disobedience towards her in-laws again, she would be sent immediately to the Government Office to be punished for filial impiety.
Bao’s pressed her thumbprint, Chen Yiling checked it before handing it over to Aunt Huang, "Aunt, keep this safe. If she breaks her promise, you can take this to the Government Office and accuse her!"
"Thank you!" Aunt Huang hastened to say.
Bao’s hung her head, her eyes filled with hatred, giving her a somewhat fierce look.
Bao’s was dissatisfied, but with the written pledge, this issue was temporarily resolved.
But nobody was in the mood for eating anymore, and Aunt Huang forced herself to go to the kitchen.
The guests had all been invited; they couldn’t just send them back without a meal.
"Aunt, although she has admitted her wrongs, you still need to be cautious," Qiao Duo’er said softly.
Bao’s was aggressive when causing trouble and did not hesitate to admit defeat, demonstrating how shrewd and ruthless this woman was.
Aunt Huang nodded, "Good child, don’t worry, we’ll see how she behaves."
"Actually, I think there was no need to even write that pledge. Just divorcing her would bring peace. My husband says that the nature of a person is hard to change. Once someone makes a mistake, they can’t be trusted again," Chen Yiling earnestly voiced her thoughts.
However, she also understood the Huang Family’s perspective.
It was not easy for ordinary folks to marry off a daughter, and even harder to become a family, which should be cherished.
But the key point was that some people are simply not worth it!
Aunt Huang slowly said, "How can one simply condemn someone to death like that? Since she has written the pledge, let’s give her a chance. Perhaps she will truly reform."
