339 Don’t Have Children If You Can’t Even Take Care of Yourself
Qin Dandan sighed and handed her two pieces of napkin.
“Don’t cry. I’m not shunning you. I only want you to think it through. I just really disagree with the perspective that when you have a child, you can’t do anything but give birth and raise it. When I was a reporter, I met many women like you. They seemed to think that they were great, but they didn’t think about what their children would face in the future! Becoming a mother was great, but it was more important to raise children well. Moreover, it was precisely because women compromised for their children that men were unscrupulous and thought that they could trap women after impregnating them. Such thoughts were the root cause of tragedy in marriage. However, I don’t think this tragedy should be blamed on men. On the contrary, it’s because of women’s weakness and incompetence.”
Qin Dandan felt that since she had already said this much, she didn’t care whether it was unpleasant or not. She continued, “Do you think it’ll be a good ending if you compromise for the child? You are an example. Can you raise your child well given your parents’ disposition? If you have half of Lu Haiying’s courage, I’ll support you in giving birth to the child. But you can’t even decide your own life. What do you think you can bring to this child? Don’t ever think that the child will be grateful to you just because you’ve worked so hard to give birth. Your parents must have had a hard time raising you, but are you grateful? To be honest, you’re still holding a grudge against them, aren’t you?”
Qin Dandan was so enraged that she stopped speaking. She sat down with her back facing Huo Yijia.
If it was Qin Dandan, she would kill these two scumbags even if it meant risking her life! In short, she would definitely not suffer a loss.
Just like when she was in Osmanthus Village, Qin Dandan directly made that man lose that ability for the rest of his life! She had also cleanly miscarried the child in her stomach that was not blessed to begin with. So this time, she was the most relaxed of the three.
Huo Yijia cried for a while and looked at the sleeping child in Lu Haiying’s arms. She couldn’t help but touch the child’s little hand. Perhaps it was because she was getting older that her maternal instincts were strongly reacting. She really couldn’t bear to be cruel to her own child. She thought that since Lu Haiying had given birth to a child, she would understand her.
Huo Yijia looked at Lu Haiying with red and swollen eyes.
“Sister Lu, do you think I should keep this child?”
Lu Haiying looked at the child in her arms with a complicated expression. In the end, she nodded.
“I’m not as great as you think I am. I can’t sacrifice everything for the sake of my child. My parents raised me for so many years, left me the best things, spent a lot of money so that I could learn dancing, and sent me to the most prestigious dance academy in the country. They never wanted me to be a docile wife or mother. Instead, they wanted me to be a woman with my own career. If I hadn’t escaped from Osmanthus Village, I probably wouldn’t have regretted giving birth to him. It’s not because I like children but because I know that my survival depends on the child.”
She proceeded, “Now, I have left Osmanthus Village and chosen to continue raising him. First, it’s because of our time together, and second, it’s because I have to be responsible for him after deciding to give birth. This is my responsibility. Xiao Huo, if you really want to ask for my advice, then don’t have a baby. Think about your previous life before. This child will consume most of your energy. You’ve already fallen to the point where you have to go through blind dates to get married. What kind of man will you find if you already have a child? Of course, if you’re like Xiao Qin and can live well on your own, then I have nothing to say. But the truth is, you can’t. If you can’t even take care of yourself, then don’t let this child suffer with you.”
