A few of them found a place to eat something, and then Wang Ge went home.
He got home quite early, so as soon as he entered the alley he saw smoke coming out of his chimney.
He pushed the door open and saw three bowls of clear rice porridge on the table, with a plate of cornmeal cakes in the middle.
"father!"
"Dad, you're back!"
When the two children saw Wang Ge, they happily surrounded him.
At this time, Aunt Wang came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of homemade pickles and a plate of soybean paste. She was stunned to see her son coming back.
"Son, why did you come back so suddenly? Have you finished making the building blocks? How much did the Qin family pay you?"
Hearing his mother ask this, Wang Ge felt very complicated for a moment.
On the way back, he kept thinking about how to tell his mother about this.
He always felt that his mother had had a hard time over the years, and it was not a big deal if he felt sorry for his little daughter and secretly gave her some money.
But when he saw that the child had only these things to eat when he was not at home, he suddenly understood Lin Yumei's feelings.
I have only seen it a few times, but Lin Yumei has silently endured it for several years.
But every time she talked about this with me, I didn't take it seriously.
The more Wang Ge thought about it, the more sad he felt. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Mom, you feed the child these when we're not home?"
Aunt Wang didn't take it seriously and said, "As long as you're full, that's all that matters. Isn't that how you've been eating since you were a kid?"
"Besides, after Yumei finishes preparing the banquet tomorrow, she will definitely bring back some delicious food. What's wrong with eating light meals on a normal day?"
Seeing her attitude, Wang Ge couldn't help but vent the anger in his heart.
“I ate like this when I was a kid because my family was poor and there was nothing I could do!
"Do you think I like to eat? Do you think I don't want to fill my stomach, eat fish and meat?
"Do you think I want to be half a head shorter than others?
"I don't want my children to have the same hardship as me, is that okay?"
Upon hearing this, Aunt Wang's face darkened and she threw the plate in her hand onto the table.
"What do you mean by that? Did your wife say something to you again?
"Why, now that she's making more money, she starts to dislike an old woman like me, right?
"Hao'er and Ping'er are my grandchildren, how could I deliberately harm them?
"I raised my child in your care, and now that I'm finally able to get rid of him, you want to squeeze me out, right?
"If you really dislike me so much, I'm going to pack up and leave right now!"
"Leave? Where to? Go live with your gambling-addicted son-in-law? Waiting for him to sell you and my little sister for money?"
When Aunt Wang heard this, her face turned pale.
"You, you already know everything..."
"Know what? Know that you've been using the money you took from your children to support your good son-in-law?
"You knew he was gambling, but not only did you keep it a secret, you even helped him hide it and gave him money."
Aunt Wang explained anxiously, "Son, that's not the case. Your brother-in-law was actually ripped off when he was buying goods. He went to gamble out of desperation, just to try to win back the money he lost..."
Hearing that his mother, like his sister, was still defending Ge Yurong, Wang Ge angrily said, "You're still speaking for him? He's become a gambling addict. Not only is he in debt, but he's even mortgaged his house. He's almost selling his wife and daughter!"
"What?" Aunt Wang got anxious when she heard it, and she grabbed Wang Ge's hand and said, "Son, you can't ignore your sister!
"Yumei has made a lot of money recently, right? You should lend the money to your sister first, redeem the house, and pay back the loan sharks!"
"Mom, do you know what you're talking about?" Wang Ge's eyes widened in surprise. "How much money do you think Yumei and I have? How much money do we have to redeem a house in the capital?
"Besides, Ge Yurong is a gambler. No matter how much money you lend him, it won't fill his bottomless pit!"
Aunt Wang cried, "That's your own sister, you can't just stand by and watch her die!"
Wang Ge couldn't help but feel a little desperate when he heard this: "In order to save her, my mother destroyed my family and separated my wife and children, and you are willing to do that?"
"No, no, as long as you help them pay off the high-interest loan, your sister's family will be able to return to their former lives..."
"Okay, stop talking!" Wang Ge was so angry that he overturned the table.
The two children had already been frightened and huddled in a corner of the room. Seeing this, Wang Ping was so scared that she cried out "Wow".
Wang Hao hugged his sister, tears welling up in his eyes.
Wang Ge felt distressed when he saw this. He walked over, picked up the two children and said, "Come on, Dad will take you out to eat something delicious."
Before he left, he said to Aunt Wang, "Mother, you don't need to tell me how Yumei and I treated you over the years. Think about it with your own conscience.
"I am your only son. As long as you are willing, I will definitely take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life.
"But if you want to use the hard-earned money of my husband and me to support others, forget it.
"I'll take the child with me first. I hope you'll have thought it through by the time we come back at the end of the year."
After saying these words, Wang Ge turned around and left with the child in his arms.
Aunt Wang collapsed to the ground and finally burst into tears after a long while.
After Wang Ge took the two children out, he first found a small restaurant near his home and ordered several dishes that the children liked without hesitation.
Looking at the two children eating voraciously, Wang Ge felt more and more sad.
Wang Hao kept looking at the door while eating.
