She quickly went to the kitchen, washed last night's dishes and put them in the cupboard, then swept the floor, mopped the floor, wiped the table, etc.
After quickly finishing the above housework, I immediately found some clothes, went into the bathroom to take a shower, and washed my clothes.
Every student has two sets of summer and winter school uniforms. Meng Xi's other one is at school during the summer, and the other one was just washed.
Meng Xi thought about it and decided to put on the winter school uniform, just enough to keep out the cold morning wind. The crappy winter school uniform at A Middle School was not thick. Compared to the summer uniform, the winter school uniform pants only had an extra layer of mesh, and the top became a thin long-sleeved jacket.
She hurried, trying to finish her work before seven-thirty.
Just as she put on her shoes and was about to go out with a black plastic bag in her arms, her mother came into the living room yawning.
"Where did you go last night?"
Ms. Lin did not hide her anger and stopped her daughter who was about to go out. "You stayed out all night for the second time. Tell me honestly, did you go out with a guy?"
Meng Xi's experience from childhood to adulthood told him that if he admitted it, the consequences would be very serious.
She was just timid, not stupid, and of course she would not rush to be abused. She said vaguely:
"I had a fever last night and took a nap at school... the fever only went away today."
"Really?" Ms. Lin looked up at the girl's face and saw no signs of lying. She reluctantly believed what she said.
"Why do you have a fever for no reason? You should exercise more often, don't delay going home to do housework. If you don't learn more, you will be disliked by your in-laws in the future."
Meng Xi lowered her head, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. It was wrong for her to lie, but——
Why doesn't her mother care about her?
If it was my younger brother, let alone a fever, even a minor bump or bruise would make my mother cry with heartache.
The older she gets, the more developed her personality becomes, and the more she comes into contact with the outside world, the more Meng Xi realizes whether her mother really doesn't care about her.
turn out to be--
I really don't care.
Meng Xi smiled bitterly and nodded, "I'm sorry, I will pay attention to doing housework when I get home next time."
She didn't mention what time she would be back, she just closed the door and left.
Ms. Lin said: "Who are you smiling at like this for? Are you dissatisfied with me? Mom is doing this for you..."
The door closed gently in response to her.

Meng Xi thought she would cry, but she found her eyes were dry.
Her body got used to being treated like this before her heart did.
She rubbed her temples, trying to get rid of the negative emotions from her mind, and came to the place where she had agreed to meet Chu Qi. She saw Chu Qi squatting on the flower bed, a very big one.
"Chu Qi——" she called softly.
The latter looked up, his eyes showing a hint of smile: "Let's go."
Chu Qi put her phone back in her pocket as if nothing had happened, got on the bicycle, and let the girl sit on the back seat. She was just sending the photos she took to the original owner's mother.
No reply yet, maybe he's busy.
This time, Meng Xi didn't wait for Chu Qi to speak, but took the initiative to hug his waist, and her cheek, which was a little cold from the cold wind, gently leaned against his back.
Seven forty in the morning.
The fiery red sun rises beyond the horizon.
The sunlight fell on the two of them, casting two long shadows.
A new day begins.
