"Mother, what's wrong with you? Did something happen at the guesthouse? If you really didn't succeed, why would you be like this?"
Zhou Miao was puzzled, very puzzled. She knew her mother's personality best: she was driven by self-interest and could turn trivial matters into major issues.
It's in her nature to make a scene even when she's being unreasonable.
If things had really gone wrong, she should have blamed heaven, earth, and her children. Her current nonchalant demeanor makes her very uncomfortable.
"What happened? I already said I didn't go into the guesthouse, what could have happened? According to you, would you be happy if I went and never came back?"
"It's my own fault that I can't find a way out for you. Think what you want. Whether you leave the island or not is your business. I'll leave on my own tomorrow."
The moment she closed her eyes, she saw those four half-human, half-demon creatures. She didn't have the courage to stay any longer. She wanted to escape, to escape far away, and never set foot in this eerie place again.
The fact that her screams didn't attract anyone shows that those four demons are very powerful; anyone who dares to have any ulterior motives will only face certain death.
She just wanted to live, and no one could stand in her way, not even her own daughter or daughter-in-law.
The more she acted this way, the stranger it seemed to the two sisters-in-law. After their mother went to sleep, the two secretly planned to confront their boss the next morning and report Xiao Dan for bullying their mother, which made Guagua laugh in exasperation.
"If Zhou Miaoniang knew that her way out was almost blocked by her own daughter and daughter-in-law, I wonder what she would think?"
"Does it matter? They don't have a chance anyway. Come on, Stinky Egg, let's go pick up Big Seven, Little Seven, and Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Let Big Brother, Second Brother, and Xie Da and Tuesday play with them again, adding a real plot to the story. Don't let it go to waste."
Shishi was calculating her plans meticulously.
She never refuses anything free.
Shen Yijin sat in the main room reading her eldest daughter's picture book, flipping through it several times, before finally waiting for the unreliable parents to arrive.
"Shen Bingshan, didn't I tell you to go to sleep?"
Shen Yijin thought to herself: You didn't say you'd be gone for this long.
He yawned. "Sister-in-law, I thought you went out with Aunt Zhang, but it turns out you and your husband went on a date."
The reason was readily available, and Shishi nodded.
"Yes, didn't you already know? Stinky Egg and I are true love, the child was just an accident."
Shen Yijin: ...Speak your mind.
Shen Yijin handed two pink little dumplings to her unreliable parents, then looked at the chicken that was pregnant and sleeping like a little piglet.
"Can we still carry them? There are two more inside. How about we leave the three chickens here and pick them up tomorrow?"
"No need." The patriarch was prepared, swinging out a long sling to carry three children on his back and holding one of his own in his arms.
Then she raised an eyebrow at Shen Yijin, "This is my burden, a sweet burden, one you can't envy."
Shen Yijin's lips twitched.
Sorry, I'm really not envious.
A big guy carrying three sleeping pet chickens on his back—it's hilarious to hear that.
Shishi diagnosed him: "Shen Bingshan, you can't have chickens, nor can you pick up such a clever chick. In short, you're incompetent."
Okay, you've confirmed it, I can't be a cross-species dad.
The couple who were showing off their child were kicked out and went to pick up their other kids while cursing.
"Huh? You mean he's gone mad?" The unexpected result left the couple momentarily speechless.
In the pitch-black family building downstairs, Guagua reported the results of the battle upstairs.
"Yes, Zhou Miao's eldest sister-in-law shouted the loudest, almost to the point of starting a rebellion, but she was the most useless. She was scared to death as soon as the eldest sister appeared, and then the second sister came along and she fainted. After being woken up by the second sister's tail, she started talking nonsense."
"What about the other two?" Shishi asked.
Is it really that boring? She hasn't even participated yet.
"Stop talking. I didn't expect the one with the strongest heart would be the oldest one. Zhou Miao also fainted and hasn't woken up yet."
“I’ll imitate my master’s voice and tell her, Zhou Miaoniang, to keep a close eye on the people. If they cause any more trouble tomorrow, I’ll throw all three of them into the sea to feed the fish.”
I always knew that two giant pythons were the most practical tool for scaring people, but I didn't expect them to be this useful.
The owner didn't even need to show up to take care of the two; now he can go home, wash up, and go to sleep.
The next day, Assistant Yao and Assistant Liu went to urge Zhou Miaoniang to pack her luggage. She didn't even need to say a word; she had already packed it all by herself.
As fate would have it, Xu Jianghai, who had gone to pick up his youngest daughter, returned home, disheartened after learning about what had happened at the cafeteria.
He thought the divorce would drag on for a while, but his mother-in-law, who valued him the most, finally relented, saying, "Let's get a divorce. I'll take Miaomiao home, and you can raise the child well."
And just like that, he got divorced without even realizing it.
One appeared calm but was inwardly terrified, another couldn't contain his fear, and the third was carefree and silly. The three of them left with their luggage, not even taking the seafood, leaving it all to Xu Jianghai.
Xu Jianghai easily became the winner.
The empty house left him feeling lost.
"Xiaohua, Daddy will ask his wife to take care of your little sister during the day. You can go to the childcare class and come back in the evening to help Daddy take care of your little sister, okay?"
Xiaohua asked back, "Can I go to the early childhood education class with my friends, Dad?"
The longing in her eyes pierced Xu Jianghai's heart, making him feel even more like a bastard.
"Of course, Dad will take you to register tomorrow. You look after your sister first, and Dad will go ask if there are any military wives willing to help..."
"Dad, can we find Lan-jie and Ying-jie's mother? She's very nice."
I'm so envious.
If I could, I'd also like to call her Mom.
Ultimately, it was just wishful thinking; I didn't have the good fortune of my two older sisters.
Xu Jianghai saw the child's dejection clearly and wanted to slap himself hard.
He has failed his child.
