As she spoke, she tugged at her sleeves and said with a choked voice, "The clothes and shoes I'm wearing now are the old clothes and shoes that my cousin's wife gave me.

I just asked my mother, and she scolded me, saying that I already had clothes to wear but I asked her for them. She also scolded me for not knowing how expensive food and daily necessities are, and for comparing with others at such a young age. ”

At this point, Taozi felt even more wronged and kept wiping away tears, "It's all my cousin's wife, if she hadn't given me her unwanted clothes to wear, my mom would definitely buy me new clothes, it's all because of her..."

Qiao Jiangxin was stunned.

She also knew a little about the situation in her aunt's family. Both her aunt and uncle preferred boys to girls, otherwise Taozi would not have been sent to be raised in her mother's family.

Before the peaches were sent to my maternal family, it seemed that my aunt had thought about giving the peaches to someone else.

After all, he was his childhood playmate. Qiao Jiangxin asked tentatively, "Did Aunt know that you had old clothes to wear? If your cousin's wife didn't give you old clothes and Aunt didn't buy you any, what would you wear?

Besides, your aunt didn’t buy new clothes for you, but she must have bought some for your cousins, right? ”

The suggestion of this statement was strong enough, but Taozi didn't hear it. She was immersed in her own thoughts.

I even squatted on the ground and cursed out loud, "Wow, it's all my cousin's wife's fault. Wow, who told her to be so kind? If she hadn't given me old clothes, my mother would have bought me new clothes.

Woo woo woo, I haven’t had any new clothes in so many years. Many people in the village laugh at me and say no one wants me. ”

"My mom finally agreed to buy me a pair of shoes, but before that they were too small. When I sat down, a lot of my calves were exposed. Wow, it's all my cousin's wife's fault."

Forget it, Qiao Jiangxin didn’t want to mention Sister Liu anymore.

Otherwise, according to Taozi's twisted thoughts now, she would become the bad person who destroyed their mother-daughter relationship and prevented her aunt from loving her.

My uncle's family conditions are not very good, and my cousin's wife is pregnant. She has a lot of old clothes to sell, and it would be considered fake kindness now.

After thinking about it, Qiao Jiangxin couldn't help but say one more thing, "Taozi, after so many years, uncle and the others haven't..."

Taozi interrupted Qiao Jiangxin excitedly, "I know what you want to say? Do you think I want to live with my uncle? It's my parents who can't take care of me, and I don't want to live with them at all..."

“You are not me, what do you know? Everyone tells me to be grateful and repay my uncle and aunt when I grow up.

When I first came here, I already remembered it. I knew this was not my home. I knew everything. ”

Taozi choked with sobs.

Everyone else lives with their parents, but she lives with her uncle, aunt, and grandparents. Her brother, sister-in-law, and younger brother can all live in her house.

She didn't want to live in her uncle's house at all.

She knew from a young age that this was not her home. Any xenophobic sentiment from anyone in this family would leave a deep impression on her.

Over the years, what has grown in her heart is not gratitude, but a deep-seated sense of insecurity.

After hearing this, Qiao Jiangxin already warned himself in his heart.

No matter what time, never help others raise children.

She didn't know what happened afterwards, but in the first two years, Taozi was raised by her aunt, and her aunt didn't give her any food.

After thinking for a while, Qiao Jiangxin said to Taozi in a joking tone, "But your situation was caused by your aunt and uncle. You don't blame your aunt and uncle, but from what you said, why do you blame your uncle's family instead?

Just like buying new clothes, you think that the grievances you suffered were caused by your cousin's wife, but in fact, weren't these grievances caused by your aunt and uncle? ”

Taozi wiped her tears, stood up, picked up the basket and headed home, "What do you know? You don't understand at all."

The joy of meeting her childhood playmate was completely dissipated, and Qiao Jiangxin was even a little stunned.

Whether Taozi should be given away was originally a matter between the aunt and uncle and the child, but now the cause and effect has fallen on the uncle's family.

Taozi wanted new clothes, and her aunt agreed to buy them for her. This was originally a relationship between Taozi and her aunt, but now the cause and effect has fallen on her cousin's wife...
