Lín Wēi only realized when she died that having a sister-favoring mother would cause so much damage to her family.
Her father fell from a great height and died. Her younger brother went mis...
'Bang, bang'
Before he could comfort the tearful Lin Yuan, Uncle Liu knocked on her door.
"Weiwei, did your mom just leave?"
"Yes, I'm going with my uncle."
Uncle Liu said angrily, "This is too much. I saw them take a lot of things. I'm afraid the house has been completely emptied."
"Mmm." Lin Yuan nodded repeatedly, expressing the grievances in his heart.
Lin Wei comforted her, "It's okay, we can go out to eat when the kitchen is empty. I'll take you out to eat."
"Don't go out to eat, why waste the money? Your aunt cooked your meal and is packing it up for you now..."
"They're here, they're here."
The next moment, Aunt Liu handed two lunch boxes to her.
In Xin County, there's a saying that you shouldn't visit other people's homes during the mourning period. Lin Wei knew this, which is why she refused to eat at Liu's house. Unexpectedly, Aunt Liu packed up the food for them.
“Take these, girl. If you don’t have enough to eat, just tell your aunt, and I’ll pack you some more.”
Lin Wei was deeply moved. "Thank you, Auntie. By the way, Uncle and Auntie, my brother and I are planning to leave tomorrow. My mom said that I can take everything I own with me. Do you have any furniture or anything you might need? We can move it over there."
"That won't do," Uncle Liu quickly refused.
Lin Wei said, "No, you can't take it with you if you leave it in the house. Even if you sell the house together, you won't get a good price. My mother's bed is only two years old and it looks brand new, as is the wardrobe. Isn't your family just looking to buy one? As long as you don't mind that it's old, every little bit helps."
"How could I complain? Your dad spent a lot of money to get it done, and it didn't even last two years."
"Okay, let's call Uncle and Aunt over to take a look when we return the bowls after we finish dinner, and then decide what to do."
"Okay, let's discuss it."
-
Upon arriving at the dining table, Lin Wei opened her younger brother's lunchbox, handed him a spoon, and then took out paper and pen. She then used her memories from her previous life to write a letter of complaint, making five copies before finally enjoying her dinner.
Lin Yuan looked curiously at the six letters on the table. "Sister, what are these?"
“It’s something to let us vent our anger.” Lin Wei smiled and changed the subject. “I’m going out tomorrow morning. If you wake up and don’t see me, don’t panic. I’m going to buy breakfast and some food for the car. So it will take a while, but I’ll definitely be home before 9 o’clock.”
Lin Yuan blinked, but didn't respond. He just quickly finished the rest of his meal.
After the siblings finished washing the dishes, they knocked on the neighbor's door together.
"Aunt Liu, thank you so much! Your cooking is excellent, the food is delicious."
"You little rascal, you're the best at praising people." As she spoke, Aunt Liu took out the red, white, and blue snakeskin bag that was on the table.
"I don't know if you have enough packing bags, but these bags are sturdy and will be perfect for your trip."
Lin Wei didn't refuse, "Then thank you, Aunt Liu."
Lin Wei originally intended to accept the snakeskin bag so that the Liu couple would feel less burdened when moving their furniture.
To everyone's surprise, Ni Fang didn't leave them a single bag. It was all thanks to Aunt Liu's snakeskin bag that Lin Wei was able to buy her own; otherwise, she would have had to go out and buy her own.
"That Ni Fang is so unethical. Knowing the children were leaving, she used up all the bags herself. What are the children going to use?" Aunt Liu said unhappily. "And this luggage, besides the children's clothes, shoes, and daily necessities, there was still room to stuff in a set of bedding. How much she must have mistreated the children in the past."
"It's alright, I can easily carry one bag, and Aunt Liu's bag is bigger. Why are you making it sound like we don't have anything?"
Aunt Liu knew that Lin Wei was trying to comfort her, so she softened her tone to avoid upsetting her, "It's good that you've left. Since that's the case, cut off all contact with them and don't come back, lest they take advantage of you."
Seeing that Aunt Liu's words were getting increasingly outrageous, Uncle Liu shoved her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about with the child?"
“I’m not talking nonsense. Ni Fang has always been mean to the children, but I never thought she would be this mean. It only took her 20 minutes to pack all the children’s luggage and bedding. Our child’s luggage took two days to pack for college. And in the kitchen, there’s only a gas cylinder left. In the master bedroom, apart from the bed frame and the cabinets that can’t be moved, there’s nothing left.”
“Child, we’ll take the furniture in this house. It’s just going to be wasted here. But your aunt has to pay you. We can’t just take it for free.”
"Auntie, Uncle, don't mention money. It hurts feelings. It's something we don't want anyway, and I'm afraid you'll find it disgusting."
“Don’t argue with your aunt, kid. Your uncle told me that your mother took all the money and only gave you 500 yuan. 500 yuan sounds like a lot, but what can you do with that?”
"No, to be honest, I have money. My dad has given me all the money he's earned from taking on side jobs over the years. I have over 2,000 yuan on hand, plus the 500 yuan my mom gave me, so I have 3,000 yuan. That's enough for Yuanyuan and me to live on for a while. Otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to make such a decision so rashly."
"Besides, I'm worried my mom will come and cause trouble if you move this stuff away."
Aunt Liu also has a short temper, so she wasn't worried about Ni Fang causing trouble.
"That's alright, your mom can't argue with me."
"So, it's settled then. If you accept the bed frame and cabinet, I can get Uncle Liu to do some work for me. I understand the principle of 'he who takes a bribe is obligated to do it.'"
Uncle Liu smiled helplessly, "You silly child, alright, your aunt and I will shamelessly agree. When you leave tomorrow, your aunt will prepare some food for you to take with you. You can't refuse that, can you?"
