While Qiao Qingqing was talking to Xiaoxiao in the house, her mother-in-law outside suddenly started talking to someone again.
She carefully identified the voice and found it was a strange old man's voice.
But looking at Xiaoxiao's expression, Qiao Qingqing realized that it might be Zhuang's mother.
"Xiaoxiao, don't cry."
She ignored the noise outside and wiped Xiaoxiao's tears.
Qiao Qingqing asked her: "Do you know why mom has to go to school?"
Unexpectedly, Xiaoxiao nodded.
"My mother said that only by making yourself strong can you take control of your life."
"Yes." Qiao Qingqing said firmly, "Given your family's current situation, only if your mother improves herself can she provide for you and Tiantian's future life."
"Even though if mom doesn't go to school, she can stay with you and take good care of you. But your grandparents are sons-centric, and your mom is worried that if she and your dad don't have children together, they might have other ideas."
"Your mother was abandoned by your maternal grandmother before. She doesn't want to be the one chosen again. She wants to take the initiative into her own hands."
"Only by going to school can her future be bright. That way, no matter what your grandparents do in the future, it will not affect her and her two daughters."
"But your mother can't bear to leave you and is worried that you will suffer here. So she has been trying every way to make money. As long as she makes enough money, she will take you to Kyoto instead of waiting until you graduate from university to bring you with her."
"That's why your mother and Aunt Xiaoman both go for internships every summer. This is a very rare opportunity that can help them realize their dream of reuniting with their children as soon as possible."
Xiaoxiao listened and cried and laughed at the same time.
No matter how much grievance I feel in my heart, it doesn't matter at this moment.
She raised her hand to wipe away her tears and begged earnestly: "Godmother, please don't tell mom what I said the other day. I don't want her to worry and be sad."
Qiao Qingqing rubbed her head and said, "I think your mother knows what's going on, otherwise she wouldn't be so desperate."
Zhou Lanfang's level of hard work is almost catching up with hers.
But you have to know that she has a small cabin with still time to catch up on her sleep, and also has spiritual spring water to replenish her body's energy.
Zhou Lanfang, however, managed to endure it with her whole body.
She only slept three or four hours a day. The last time I saw her, I was shocked by the haggardness on her face and the darkness under her eyes.
"By the way, when I came back this time, your mother also asked me to bring something for you and Tiantian."
Qiao Qingqing comforted her, "Just stay at your godmother's house this summer. In a few days, your godmother will go to the county town to pick up the package. The things your mother prepared for you are in there."
Hearing this, Xiaoxiao was overjoyed and quickly said, "I can do housework now, godmother, you can rest assured to take care of my sisters, I will help with the housework!"
Qiao Qingqing felt sad. When Lan Fang was around, Xiao Xiao was never like this. Now she was afraid that she would be kicked out because she had no value.
"With godmother, you can live peacefully even if you don't do anything."
Thinking that she might not be able to live comfortably like this, Qiao Qingqing added: "But if you don't mind, you can accompany the sisters more often for godmother, teach them to read and write, so that godmother can spare time to do other things."
When Xiaoxiao heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and her smile became brighter than before.
When Qiao Qingqing and Xiaoxiao walked out of the room, Zhuang's mother, who was sitting in the pavilion drinking water, quickly stood up.
She had a flattering smile on her face, bent over, and greeted in broken Mandarin with a rural accent: "Hello..."
Looking at Zhuang's mother, she seems to be quite honest and simple.
