Woven Second Threads Novel Chapter 13
Marinda Qingping's face was expressionless, "The biscuits were bought by Chengzi for Eli to eat."
"You girl, why don't you understand?" Her mother looked at her as if she was looking at a fool, "This little wild brat deserves to eat such good food? What good can an outsider do if he eats you? What can he do when he grows up? Don’t you remember me?"
When Marinda Qingping heard this, the ferocious face of his nephew before his death reappeared before his eyes.
Yes, an outsider.
But, when she was about to die, it was this outsider who remembered her...
Well, of course, people who she devoted everything to treat her also remember her, but what they remember is her property...
She saw Eli turn his head to the side when he heard the words "little wild boy".
Marinda Qingping immediately took the milk cup from her brother's hand and put it away together with the biscuits on the table.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Her mother was unhappy.
Marinda Qingping picked up the things cleanly, turned around and said sternly, "I don't want to hear the word Xiaoyezi again! He is the child that our Chengzi raised as his own son! He is the biological son of me and Chengzi!"
Her mother said coquettishly, "That's not what I said. Aren't acquaintances in the surrounding villages all saying that? Can you still control what others say?"
Marinda Qingping sneered, "I really can't control what other people say! However, such a person never wants to enter my house! Anyone who dares to speak in front of me will be slapped in the mouth!"
Her mother got angry, "So, you're going to hit me in the mouth today? Hit me in the mouth for a little wild guy...an outsider?"
Marinda Qingping paused and asked Eli to go out to play first. After he was far away, he said, "Because you are my mother, forget it today, but next time, you don't want to come."
This kind of mother-daughter relationship is not positive, and she doesn't want her children to see it.
Her mother was so angry that she stood up and wanted to leave, but her brother grabbed her clothes and held her back.
Her mother then sat down again and said calmly, "Forget it, who made me your mother? There is no overnight feud between mother and daughter."
Marinda Qingping knew that her mother would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and she would not ask questions, just wait.
Her mother started to talk. It turned out that she had listened to someone's instigation and wanted her brother to join the army. She talked about how good the army was and asked Justin Gu to help him get it in.
She glanced at her brother. To be honest, her brother was always ambitious and capable, and she also hoped that he would be successful. However, it was rare to see such a delicate boy in the countryside. Her mother had spoiled her since she was a child. , her father dotes on her, and she and her second sister support the family. Her brother doesn't even know how to do farm work. When the farming is busy, he goes to the fields to cut wheat, and then he is so tired that he goes to sleep under the shade of the trees.
Just like this, can you afford the hardships of the army?
She just said, "Okay, this is a good way out, let's go."
"Then Chengzi..." Her mother beamed with joy.
"Sign up by yourself. You can't mention Chengzi's name anywhere. You can't go around using Chengzi's name to build relationships. Let me know. You won't have to enter the Gu family's door in the future."
Her mother's face changed, "How can that be done? If Nariko doesn't take care of you, won't the training be very hard after entering? When did your brother ever have to work hard..."
Marinda Qingping knew what was going on, "You mean you want him to join the army and enjoy the benefits?"
"Of course, we have a relationship like Nariko, why do we need to endure hardship? Let him be placed next to Nariko, and he will be treated like a little officer..."
What is her mother dreaming about!
"What are you thinking? Chengzi has no such ability, he is just an ordinary soldier! Moreover, no one can enter without suffering, and no one has such a precedent. It is fair and just. It is impossible to go through the back door!" Marinda Qingping said rudely .
These words made her mother-in-law angry.
"Okay, I think I raised you in vain!" Her mother stood up and pulled her brother to leave, "Now that you are well married, you won't take your mother's family seriously anymore. Don't forget, we can't help you." How can you be so good with this family relationship? Okay, we can't afford your family relationship, and we won't do it anymore!"
Marinda Qingping felt very sad when she saw her mother's furious look. This was her own mother!
"Mom, let your brother study, study for two or three years, and try to get into college."
Marinda Qingping knew her brother's path in this life.
Later, she forced Justin Gu to find comrades in arms and found a factory for her brother to work. Her brother was hanging around in the factory all day long. Later, when she started her business, her brother came out of the factory and asked her for money to invest. Basically, She was a prodigal who lost everything she did. Later, she simply raised her brother. She raised her brother for the rest of her life, and also raised her brother's children...
"Hmph! If you don't help, I won't help! Why are you pretending to be a cultured person! Okay, now that you are noble and educated, we rural people are no longer worthy of you! Isn't it okay if this relative doesn't leave in the future?" Her mother asked her brother Pulled away.
Marinda Qingping sighed secretly, this was her last advice to her brother.
Her younger brother can't pick his shoulders or lift his hands. It hasn't been difficult to get into college in the past few years. If he can find a way through studying, he may be able to change his life, but...
She shook her head. No matter what, she must pull her sister out of her miserable life!
I thought about it in my mind and decided to cook first and then go to the town to buy some things. I wonder how my sister's school supplies are prepared, so I have to go and see.
When she went to the yard to get vegetables, she realized that the basket of vegetables she had just picked from the ground was gone...
She smiled bitterly.
Her mother's love for petty gains will never change in her lifetime.
She cooked the meal quickly, and she was also thinking about the future little by little. When the meal was ready, she also had a rough plan.
In her previous life, she met so many people, some of whom she didn't want to see again, and some of whom she still wanted to find back.
Thinking that Eli had been wronged again today, when cooking, he made his favorite pumpkin pie again.
After it was done, I filled the rice bowl, went to the fields to deliver food to my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and then asked Eli to come back to eat.
But after searching around, Eli was not found.
Thinking that Eli had run away from home, she panicked and shouted throughout the village. A neighbor heard her and told her, "Isn't Eli lying down in your yard? Why are you shouting outside?"
Marinda Qingping hurried back, and sure enough, he found an old tree stump behind the house.
He was lying on it writing.
Marinda Qingping approached gently. He had already written the numbers on the first page, and was writing the last row of pinyin letters on the second page.
The immature notes were written with great effort... crookedly.
She watched Eli finish writing the last letter and squatted down.
She first praised him for writing seriously, then squatted and looked into his bright eyes.
"Eli." Her voice was soft, "Eli, can you help me from now on?"
It was obvious that Eli's dark eyes were filled with surprise.
"Look, your Uncle Gu is in the army and is often away from home. Grandpa is getting older and has to work in the fields every day. You are the youngest and most useful man in the family. Can you join me and help Uncle Gu guard this home?
