Qiao Zijin was already forty. How shameless she was to return to her family's house to leech off them! If she was foolish enough to open the door for Qiao Zijin today and allow her to leech off them again, Ding Jiayi knew that Qiao Dongliang would never agree to meet her in the future, and she would never be able to mend their relationship ever again.
If she had to make a choice between her husband and her daughter, Ding Jiayi had already decided that she would choose Qiao Dongliang. She no longer wanted that evil and unfilial daughter, Qiao Zijin.
Having made that decision, there was no way Ding Jiayi could warmly welcome Qiao Zijin in as she had done before. It was entirely Qiao Zijin's fault that she had become a lonely old person with no children or husband by her side.
