In the blink of an eye, it was time to eat the New Year's Eve dinner again. Her younger brother Li Tianyou also returned home. The moment that Li Miaomiao hated had finally arrived. Her legs were still trembling. Finally, she made up her mind: An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law, so go.
The New Year’s Eve dinner has begun. Today, relatives come to his house to eat. There is a large table of dishes, and Li Tianyou eats as if everything in the outside world has nothing to do with him.
Li Miaomiao had no appetite. She was still thinking about how to deal with the gossip of her relatives.
After a while, An Ran came. He had dyed his hair yellow and wore unconventional clothes. He took off his coat as soon as he entered the house, revealing a T-shirt with obvious tattoos. Li Miaomiao almost vomited when she saw An Ran.
An Ran acted cool and sat down. Li Miaomiao lowered her head to pick up some food, and her aunt said, "Miaomiao, why did you pick up the food first without waiting for others? You were not like this when you were a child."
Li Miaomiao said: "Yes, I am impolite. I am even more impolite than the yellow-haired tattooed guy."
"Who are you talking about? What's your attitude?" An Ran was a little angry and asked Li Miaomiao loudly.
Li Miaomiao was startled, but still straightened her chest: "I'm talking about whoever likes to identify with myself." As she said that, she took another bite of fish, but accidentally pricked her tongue.
"Okay, okay, I am a great man and I don't bear grudges. A good man doesn't fight with a woman. I won't argue with you." An Ran said these words again.
Then the aunt started to educate Li Miaomiao's mother. Before Li Miaomiao could say a few words, she spoke: "Aunt, please don't blame my mother. How did you teach your children? You don't think that yellow-haired tattooed Shamatte is good-looking, do you?"
"Li Miaomiao, that's enough." An Ran threw away her chopsticks and stood up as if she wanted to tear Li Miaomiao apart.
"Cousin, didn't you just say that a good man doesn't fight with a woman and a gentleman doesn't remember the faults of a villain? How could such a magnanimous gentleman like you be afraid of these two words of mine?"
"You?" An Ran's face changed.
"Miaomiao, your brother is grown up now. He can do whatever he wants. I can't always control him." The aunt started to protect her son again.
"So, aunt, since you can't take care of me, my brother has to take care of me, right? I'm grown up now, so please don't bother me, okay?" The aunt was speechless.
Mom pinched Li Miaomiao and told her not to say anything when she was frustrated.
Li Miaomiao recalled that when she was a child, she had a period of premature graying of her hair. A relative asked her in front of a group of people, "Why are your hair gray? You've become an old lady in your teens."
Li Miaomiao had just said a few words when her mother pinched her and told her not to say anything, so she swallowed the bitterness.
Now it’s like this again, she has been diagnosed with depression because of this, and she can no longer hold it in: “Aunt, you can’t control my cousin or my uncle.
So my uncle cheated on you and found someone else, and you could only be angry in your heart and dare not say anything, otherwise my uncle would beat you, right?"
"What are you talking about, kid?" Mom was angry and slapped Li Miaomiao.
"Susu, stop hitting her. She's just a child, and you didn't say anything too harsh." The third uncle next to her pulled her mother away.
Miaomiao's face was burning with pain. She saw Anran laughing secretly and her aunt pretending to be hypocritical. She never expected that her mother would beat her for these two people.
"You hit me? You actually hit me? She said I was helping her." Li Miaomiao yelled at her mother.
"Miaomiao, how can you yell at your mother?" There was a hint of smile in my aunt's voice.
"Then I won't yell at my mom, I'll yell at your aunt. You're not very happy yourself, right?
You envy my mother for having the love that my father has for you. My father doesn't love you, my grandfather doesn't love you, my uncle doesn't love you, and now Anran doesn't love you either, and you can't control him.
You are a pitiful woman, so you can only find a little comfort in your empty heart by looking for my business. "
Li Miaomiao's words were full of wisdom, and everyone present was stunned. Then everyone fell silent, and then the third uncle broke the silence: "Miaomiao, eat your food. Uncle knows you are under a lot of pressure. Now that you are home, we are all family."
Li Miaomiao sat down and started eating, and Anran rolled her eyes at her.
The cell phone suddenly rang. Li Miaomiao took out her phone and saw that it was a message from Jiang Yin. She opened it hurriedly.
Miaomiao, it’s time to start eating the New Year’s Eve dinner. My relatives asked me to go on a blind date, but I told them I already have a boyfriend. They told me to look around a lot, and one won’t do. I’m so annoyed.
We are both wanderers in this world, so why should we know each other before we meet? Li Miaomiao felt a little better when she saw Jiang Yin, who shared the same suffering as her. However, she still felt mixed emotions and felt uncomfortable. She saw tears in Jiang Yin's eyes when he spoke.
Everyone was eating, and Mom had a gloomy face. Li Miaomiao sent a short message to Jiang Yin: My mom beat me.
Almost immediately, I received a surprised expression, followed by a sentence: You are so old, and your mother still beats you.
Li Miaomiao cried out "Wow".
"What's wrong again? Are we going to be able to eat?" An Ran said impatiently.
"I don't want to eat anymore." Li Miaomiao stood up and ran out.
"It was just like this the year before last. We had a great New Year's Eve dinner last year without her. Why did you let her come back this year? Don't let her come from next year onwards. She's so disgusting." An Ran had a look of disgust on her face.
Auntie began to pretend to be concerned: "Susu, go chase Miaomiao quickly. Don't let her get upset. If she runs away like this, we will all be worried. If something happens to her, I can't bear the consequences. Miaomiao is in trouble because of me."
Then her aunt started to cry, and An Ran immediately supported her mother: "Mom, it's not worth it. She loves me so much, it would be better if she died."
Uncle San had long seen that the mother and son were acting, and didn't want to pay attention to them. He said to Susu, "Sister-in-law, go find Miaomiao."
Under everyone's advice, Susu finally left the New Year's Eve dinner and went to the street to look for her daughter.
"Miaomiao, Miaomiao." Susu was a little angry at first, but later when she found that she couldn't find her daughter and she didn't come home, she became anxious and shouted her daughter's name.
As Li Miaomiao was walking, she bumped into three or five people.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." She apologized and wanted to take a detour.
"Li Miaomiao."
Miaomiao looked up and saw that it was her elementary school classmate Wu Li, and the two girls next to her were An Qianqian and Chen Meihong.
"Miaomiao, where are you going? Why are you outside so late?" Wu Li asked gently.
"Wandering around." Li Miaomiao answered weakly.
"Why don't you have the New Year's Eve dinner at home? Why are you wandering around? Go home quickly." An Qianqian next to her said with a smile, with a hint of schadenfreude in her smile.
Li Miaomiao didn't respond to her, just turned around and walked away.
"Miaomiao, do you want to come to my house to spend the New Year?" Wu Li asked.
Li Miaomiao was initially tempted, but when she saw the two people beside Wu Li, she didn't want to go anymore and said softly, "Next time."
"Okay, Miaomiao, remember to go home early and have the New Year's Eve dinner." Wu Li said gently.
"Yeah." Li Miaomiao responded and thought to herself: It's better not to eat this kind of New Year's Eve dinner.
