Chapter 313 Painful Past (20)

In the blink of an eye, it was time to go home from school in the afternoon. Ji Tingyang and his two siblings walked slowly from the school gate to their cousin's house.

It took them an hour to get back to the community building instead of just ten minutes away.

It was easy to leave my cousin's house in the morning, but I didn't dare to go back at night, for fear that I would run into my cousin and continue to be beaten.

"How about we go to the park and sleep over tonight?" Ji Zeqiu looked hesitant.

He had heard from his classmates that some people who had nowhere to go would sleep in the park, so maybe they could also go to the park to sleep.

Ji Tingyang pursed his lips and thought for a moment, "I'll sneak upstairs to take a look first. If my uncle is not here, we'll go upstairs. If he is here, we'll go to the park."

"Okay." Ji Zeqiu nodded, then took Ji Lanyue's hand and waited for him downstairs.

Fortunately, the man was not at home, and Ji Tingyang and the others returned to the house feeling relieved.

The messy furniture from last night was still lying on the floor, and the man didn't bother to clean it up.

Ji Tingyang didn't touch them. He took his younger brother and sister into the bedroom and locked the door again.

Until late at night.

Ji Tingyang was half asleep when he heard some noise in the living room.

The man was still cursing, his body swaying as he fell onto the sofa.

It was unknown how long he kept cursing, and finally he fell asleep on the sofa.

Wait until you wake up the next day.

Ji Tingyang and the others quietly slipped out of the bedroom again.

Just as he was about to reach the door, Ji Zeqiu suddenly stopped, walked carefully to the man, and took out the ten yuan that was shaky in his pocket.

After leaving the community, Ji Zeqiu shook the money in his hand and said proudly: "We have money to eat today!"

Ji Lanyue also cheered happily, "Great!"

Ji Tingyang opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but swallowed it back after a long time.

When I returned to the community in the afternoon, the man was not at home as before. He came back drunk late at night and fell asleep on the sofa.

The next day they would sneak out again before the man woke up.

If you are lucky, you can get a few dollars in the man's pocket.

They lived like this for half a year without disturbing each other.

Until one night, the man came back drunk, spitting out insults at Ji Yiyun.

"Ji Yiyun, that damn woman, has been delaying paying me this month's money. I'm almost out of money to drink."

"I called her so many times but she didn't answer. She must have done it on purpose!"

"Does she think I'm easy to bully? I'll go find her tomorrow!"

Two more days passed.

This time, it was another strange man who appeared in front of Ji Tingyang and the others.

"Your uncle said he can't afford to support you anymore, so he asked me to take you away," said the man.

"Who are you?" Ji Lanyue grabbed Ji Tingyang's clothes tightly, her voice containing a hint of fear.

"I am your uncle, although our relationship is somewhat distant." The man had a cold expression on his face, and just took the three children away.

But the place they were going this time was a bit far, and they couldn’t go back to the school here to attend classes.

The man transferred them to a new school, and their lives seemed to start all over again.

This uncle's wife had been unable to give birth to a child, so they had no offspring. When she heard about Ji Tingyang's three children from her cousin, she offered to adopt them.

Compared with Ji Yiyu and his uncle, this uncle's attitude towards them was quite good.

Although Ji Tingyang and the others also need to do housework at their uncle's house, their uncle will not scold them like their aunt, nor will he beat them like their cousin.

Ji Tingyang somewhat likes this peaceful life, except that he occasionally thinks of Wen Li.

He had transferred to another school in a hurry and had not told Wen Li. He wondered how she would react when she saw that he was not there. Time passed in a flash, and another half a year had passed.

Ji Tingyang also went to junior high school.

"Brother, what is junior high school like? Is it more fun than elementary school? Are there less homework than in elementary school?" Ji Lanyue asked curiously when Ji Tingyang took them home.

Ji Tingyang immediately understood her thoughts and said, "You still have to do homework when you go to junior high school."

Ji Lanyue's face suddenly fell.

Ji Zeqiu pinched her cheek and said, "You're dreaming, but there's no such thing as not having to do homework."

The three of them returned to their uncle's house chatting and laughing. As soon as they entered the door, they saw a strange glow on their uncle's face.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Uncle, is there anything happy?" Ji Lanyue asked.

"Your aunt is pregnant. We are finally going to have our own child." The man's face was flushed and his eyes were curved into crescents with smile.

"That's great, I can play with my younger brothers and sisters." Ji Lanyue clapped her hands happily.

"Yes, when the time comes, Lanyue must take care of the baby like her brother." Uncle said with a smile.

Ji Lanyue nodded heavily, "Yes, I will!"

However, when the uncle's child was born, he said to them with an embarrassed look on his face: "After the child was born, your aunt and I have been taking care of the baby. We really don't have the energy to take care of you."

"I have found another family for you. They said they are willing to adopt you. What do you think?"

The expression on Ji Tingyang's face suddenly froze.

Ji Zeqiu's trembling pupils were filled with disbelief.

Ji Lanyue also raised her head suddenly, looking at the man with a trace of sadness in her eyes, "Uncle, don't you want us anymore?"

The man's eyes flickered awkwardly. "Your aunt and I are already very old. We really don't have the energy to spare..."

Ji Lanyue's eyes suddenly turned red, and her voice choked up, "My brothers and I will be very obedient. Uncle doesn't need us to be taken care of. Uncle, please don't abandon us..."

The man stammered and looked away in embarrassment.

Just when Ji Lanyue wanted to say something else, Ji Tingyang stopped her and shook his head at her.

"Uncle, we understand." Ji Tingyang said calmly.

Just when they thought they had finally found a good family to adopt them, reality ruthlessly abandoned them again.

the next day.

A strange couple came to the man's house and looked Ji Tingyang and his friends up and down.

"Are these the three children you are talking about? They are so thin, do they really have the strength to work?" The woman's tone was full of disgust.

The man immediately said, "They are very well behaved and sensible, and they work very hard. Look at my house, it's so clean and hygienic, it's all cleaned by them."

"Okay." The woman sighed, "Pack your things and follow me."

that's all.

Ji Tingyang and his friends came to another strange place.
