Chapter 525 does not see the dawn.
A week later.
Yan Yutong, a cousin of the Yan family, came to Yangcheng not for the first time. She had invested in business with her ex-husband in Yangcheng and bought a small foreign house here. After the divorce, the house naturally belonged to her. After settling down at home, she called Sun Bingqing and asked her to meet her at the cafe outside.
Sun Bingqing arrived ten minutes before the appointed time. He found a seat by the window and ordered a cup of coffee.
After waiting for five or six minutes, Yan Yutong took a taxi and the two cousins, who had not seen each other for more than a decade, met again with mixed feelings, as if they had not seen each other for a century.
Yan Yutong was three or four years older than sun bingqing. In singapore, she should have been happier and smoother. Her figure and face were well maintained, and she looked in her early thirties. She was also dressed in bright and charming clothes.
The two sisters exchanged small talk for a long time before Sun Bingqing asked about her. "Sister yu tong, you have two sons and one daughter over there. The ex-brother-in-law seems to be nice to you too. Why do you want a divorce?"
"He's really good to me, but there's a very difficult mother-in-law at home, and she's an old playwright. She plays all kinds of tricks at home every day, making our good life impossible. As for him, being sandwiched between two women was also difficult. For the sake of a quieter life and study environment for the three children, I took the initiative to propose a divorce. So, he felt bad for me. He gave me a lot of money, a house in Yangcheng, and all the business in Yangcheng was transferred to me." When Yan Yutong talked about himself, he seemed very free and easy, but there was sadness in his eyes.
"But that's not good for the three children." Sun Bingqing frowned.
"Yes, but there's no other way. It would be equally bad for them to continue living in a stalemate, so I chose to take a step back. I'm planning to develop in Yangcheng now, and it's close to going back to singapore. I'll take more time to visit them every year in the future."
Yan Yutong took a sip of coffee, looked at his slightly haggard cousin and sighed, "Before I came, I went to see aunt xiaoyun and heard about you from her. Bing qing, don't blame being a cousin for being straight. You're in a bad state right now. If you continue like this, it won't do you any good, and you won't be able to save father of Aunt and your cousin."
Sun Bingqing smiled bitterly and sighed as well, "It's dark in front of me. I can't see the dawn."
"I can understand you. The burden of the whole family is on you. You're tired. However, your family's situation is much worse than mine. Even if your printing factory is successful, how much money can you earn all year round? How many years can you fill your brother's hole?"
Besides, no one or any law stipulates that you, your sister, have to pay off the debts caused by your brother. And your father gave birth to you and raised you. You have to repay him for his kindness. You should try your best to earn money to help him come out as soon as possible. What you should do now is to save father of Aunt. Put everything else aside. When he comes out, your help will come, and you will see the light of day."
Yan Yutong's words were heard in Sun Bingqing's heart, and there was still a bitter smile on his lips, "It will be two or three years before dad comes out."
"It's been more than seven years since something happened at home. Two or three years is nothing compared to seven years."
"Yeah, two or three years is actually just a blink of an eye." Sun Bingqing thought that he had been out for more than two years, but nothing happened, and he became more and more powerless and confused.
Yan Yutong felt bad looking at her dejected and confused look. She remembered that this cousin was very energetic when she was young, and she loved to laugh, but now the smile on her face was no longer pure and clean. She should have had enough suffering over the years.
"Bingqing, you are in your thirties this year. For women, you are not young. Don't you plan to find someone to live with?"
No one has asked her this question since she was released from prison. She knew that her mother and her sister and brother-in-law wanted to ask, but she was afraid that she would not say anything. Today, when she heard her cousin ask, Sun Bingqing shook his head, "I didn't think about it."
"It's time for you to think about this. It's unrealistic for a woman not to get married in her life. You won't be so tired with a man with you. With a child around you, your life will be more fun."
Sun bingqing took a sip of bitter coffee and said wearily, "I'm not what I used to be. There's a stain on my resume. This is still the case at home. Which man would consider me?"
"How do you know if you haven't? Not every man cares about this."
Sun Bingqing smiled coldly. "Even if they don't care, I'm cheap in their eyes." When she saw He Weixuan's face that day, she realized it more clearly.
Yan Yutong was also uncomfortable with the word "Cheap." Once upon a time, the Yan family was high and the daughter of the Yan family was held in high regard everywhere she went, but now it was hard to find a decent man.
Once attached to their home, they lived proudly and confidently. Without the help of their home, they became nothing.
"Bingqing, I know you are stubborn and arrogant in your bones, but now that your grandfather and father and brother who are protecting you have fallen, no one will appreciate your arrogance, on the contrary, it will provoke everyone's ridicule and ridicule. If you continue to carry it like this, you yourself are actually tired of living. Why do you force yourself to be so tired? The capital you have now is not money, but your looks and educational abilities. You should put down your body and make good use of it so that you can live more easily." Yan Yutong actually said the same thing to Yan Xiaoyun. Yan Xiaoyun didn't say anything at the time. She knew that this cousin was still too proud to let go of her dignity.
Sun Bingqing understood the meaning of her cousin's words. She had reflected on herself, but she really couldn't.
"Your cousin, I, was once a proud person, and my conditions were no worse than yours. When I first went to singapore, the Yan family was in its prime and my parents-in-law treated me like a daughter. Ah, when the Yan family fell, their faces immediately changed, especially their mother-in-law. All kinds of vicious words could be scolded from her mouth, and the nature of the shrew was revealed."
"My grandfather, the pillar of heaven, fell down, and my father was locked up. My brother was not very capable. He was the one who supported all the troubles in the family. I couldn't support me when I was married to a foreign country. I had to endure it. At a time like this, arrogance is nothing. The more proud you are, the more people laugh at you. Instead of pestering you like this, it's better to use your beauty and ability to get more money. Money is the most practical thing. With money in hand, you don't have to be afraid that you can't afford to eat, buy good clothes, use high-end cosmetics, drive a luxury car, and live in a villa. You can buy all these external things with money."
