Chapter 88 The Unfortunate Child (Part 2)
There is nothing left to say at this point.
Song's mother finally revealed something that she had kept secret for most of her life: "Your sister... was entrusted to us for adoption by someone else. Her parents said they would come back soon to pick her up. More than 20 years have passed, and I haven't seen them come back. They definitely won't be coming back."
Mother Song took this opportunity to explain the stakes to her son: "Your sister's biological parents' family background is not good, it's a good thing for us not to have anything to do with her now. You are not biological siblings, so it's only right that you don't have any contact in the future."
In her eyes, her extremely intelligent son is a dragon that is about to take shape in the mountains!
No matter how successful Song Shengsheng was, at most she just married a good husband.
I don't have any special abilities.
When she gets old, how long can her bad temper and laziness last?
But her own son was completely different.
In the future, she will have to rely on her son to make the family proud and honorable.
Song Peiyuan felt a little strange in his heart. After a while, he said, "She will always be my sister. I will not forget to take care of her even if I become successful in the future."
Mother Song had only two words to say to her stubborn son: "speechless."
"Was she nice to you when you were little? Don't think I don't know she was secretly pinching you two behind our backs."
"I think you only know how to read a little. You are a fool when it comes to social skills."
Song Peiyuan didn't feel angry when he heard these words.
After his mother had vented her anger, he said, "Mom, I'll give you the three hundred yuan later."
Mother Song choked and was so angry that she wanted to hit him.
Song Peiyuan then said nonchalantly, "The day after tomorrow, I just happened to be back at school."
Song Ma: “%…”
What a filial son!
Who did she save all this money for? ! It was for him and his sister, but he didn't feel bad at all!
Heartless thing.
Mother Song wanted to scold him but couldn't bear to do so, and instead she became depressed.
At night, she took out the money jar hidden under her pillow and counted it. There were about five or six hundred yuan in it.
In fact, Song Shengsheng's betrothal money had already been spent by the couple.
The house was repaired and Mother Song gave her own family a few dozen yuan. Over the past few years, she has also given her family more than a hundred yuan.
As for the money in the jar, all of it was what she had asked Song Shengsheng for over the years.
Mother Song told her to save the money that she secretly squeezed out of Fu Cheng's salary so that she would not be short of money when she no longer wanted to live with Fu Cheng in the future.
This is the amount that has been added up over the past four or five years.
Mother Song couldn't come up with three hundred yuan no matter how hard she tried. Seeing the huge pile of money being handed back, she felt so heartbroken that she wanted to bang her head against the wall.
While she was still hesitating, the matchmaker came to her house again the next day.
"Shengsheng! Chen Jianguo died yesterday!"
Mother Song was so frightened that she fell off the chair, grimacing in pain from her butt.
The matchmaker lowered her voice and said, "I think this man should have died a long time ago. It was God who couldn't bear to see him die, so he took him away directly."
Song's mother suppressed her panic and asked quietly, "How could someone who seemed to be full of life just two days ago suddenly die?"
She thought of Fu Cheng and shuddered all over.
The matchmaker cried out in surprise, and she excitedly told her, "Someone recruited me the other day, saying that there is a state-owned factory in Yangcheng that is hiring, and the leader of the factory is interested in helping the people in need, so this good opportunity fell on him."
"The state-owned factory has good treatment. He can earn 40 yuan a month and has a city hukou."
"But Chen Jianguo got carried away and went out drinking with his brothers in the village. He got drunk and passed out, and no one took him home. On his way home, he was not careful and fell into a ditch and drowned."
Mother Song felt uneasy when she heard this, but she seemed to be fine.
But is there really such a coincidence in the world? Chen Jianguo, that bastard, should have died earlier or later, but at this moment.
She wouldn't believe it if there wasn't something fishy going on.
Her lips turned pale, but she didn't say anything. The matchmaker continued, "Chen Jianguo is also a stupid bastard. He was beaten up by the army officers a few days ago, but he couldn't produce any evidence, and no one saw it with their own eyes. He made trouble in the army, and the leader ordered people to shoot him out."
"No one believes what this scoundrel says anymore."
"Don't you think those officials are the same as those he bullied before?"
The more Mother Song listened, the colder her heart became. She looked so anxious as if a relative of hers had died.
The matchmaker was puzzled when she saw that her face looked strange.
"Although I shouldn't say this, but now that Chen Jianguo, the troublemaker, is dead, we can all breathe a sigh of relief, right?"
Mother Song seemed to have lost her soul. She nodded: "Yes, yes, yes."
Even after the man died, the matchmaker couldn't help but curse a few more times: "This damn bastard, I heard that he was a jerk. I wouldn't have been a matchmaker for him no matter how much money he offered me. Your family is lucky. Those who got entangled with him before would have suffered a lot."
"I saw that he had no chance of marrying Shengsheng, so I asked you for Yaoyao."
When Song's mother heard her daughter's words, her face immediately changed: "This old beast! A toad wants to eat swan flesh! He is just dreaming about his spring and autumn, he deserves to die!"
After Chen Jianguo's death, Mother Song no longer dared to haggle over this small amount of money. She took out the full three hundred yuan that night and gave it to her son the next day, asking him to deliver it to his sister.
Mother Song was really scared this time, and she didn't dare to go to Song Shengsheng again no matter what.
She hasn't lived long enough!
Next time I see that couple, I'll have to take a detour around them.
*
Song Shengsheng still didn't know what had happened.
She took half a day off that day. As soon as Fu Cheng left, she started to nag at him in her heart, whining and listing all his dissatisfactions.
Remember his hatred silently, count his sins carefully before going to sleep.
She hadn't fallen asleep yet, and her son actually came back by himself from school.
But the little guy who usually came back happily with his little schoolbag on his back was not very happy this time.
As soon as Fu Luochi left kindergarten, a loud speaker came up to him and said that his mother was sick and had been sent back from the hospital.
Children have no idea what a hospital is, but if they are sick enough to go to the hospital, it must be very serious.
They even thought that little Fu Luochi would soon be without a mother.
On the way home, Fu Luochi's eyes secretly turned red, and pearly tears fell down, with tears still hanging on his thick, long and curly black eyelashes. He cried secretly and quietly, not daring to make any sound.
He came home with eyes redder than a rabbit's.
The boy walked to the door of his mother's room, tears of grievance and fear about to fall again.
He is not a crybaby at all, he can even be considered a cold-hearted child.
But I'm just afraid right now.
I’m worried that my mom might be unwell.
He wondered if it was because he was a child not favored by God, otherwise he wouldn't have such bad dreams and would have the same repetitive dreams.
The mother in the dream looked like she was sick.
He was an unlucky child, which made his mother sick as well.
The boy clenched his fists and carefully pushed open his mother's door.
Song Shengsheng saw the aggrieved little face appearing behind the door. He stood outside the door, as if he didn't dare to approach her.
Then, Song Shengsheng heard her son whispering, "Mom, are you sick?"
