Chapter 291 My Dad Was Taken Advantage of
My dad said without even thinking, "How is that possible? I gave birth to him, why wouldn't I raise him? It's not like I can't afford it."
At this time, I noticed that Deng Sisi was listening to our conversation at the door. When I asked her whether she was my parents' daughter and adopted by my aunt, she was obviously happy, but my father's denial made her face fall again.
She was used to living in my house, and in her heart she actually despised the conditions of her own family and wished she was my parents' biological child.
My mother also saw Deng Sisi and was afraid that she would be sad, so she quickly said, "Sisi has been my daughter since she was a child. She is no different from my own child."
I said quietly, "How can she be the same as your biological child? It's obvious that you have to give in to your biological child in everything."
My uncle, who was always aloof, lost all dignity when he heard what my father and I said. He yelled at Deng Sisi, "Who told you to go to your aunt's house all day? Don't you have a home yourself?"
Our family's conditions are not as good as others'. You should have integrity. If you go to someone else's house and get looked down upon, you won't feel ashamed. I still have some dignity!"
I was overjoyed when I heard that. Deng Sisi must learn from her father and be a bit more courageous. I'm almost annoyed to death every time I meet her when I go home.
Opportunity is fleeting, so I have to add fuel to the fire.
"Remember to clean up my room when you move out. My room has never been this messy in all these years!"
Deng Sisi didn't shed a tear when she was keeping vigil for her mother, but now she started crying without any pretense.
She cried all she wanted, and while crying she snuggled into my mother's arms. My mother immediately hugged her distressedly and scolded me: "Mengmeng, Sisi just lost her mother, and you still want to drive her out? How can you be so hard-hearted? Why can't you tolerate her?"
I snorted coldly, "Even though she lost her mother, she still has you to protect her. I, who has a mother, am worse off than her, who has no mother."
Between her and me, have you ever protected me once?"
I turned to my dad and said seriously, "Dad, as long as Deng Sisi stays at my house for one day, I won't go home for one day. If you and my mom want to change your daughter, then let's do it.
By the way, it’s better to give me the dowry you plan to give me as soon as possible, otherwise it will fall into my mother’s hands and become someone else’s dowry.”
Now that the conversation has come to light, I won't be polite anymore. Screw the sisterly love, I won't pretend anymore.
My mother was so angry that she couldn't speak, but with my uncle beside her, she was obviously much more restrained.
Then she said with suppressed anger: "Mengmeng, if you don't want to live at home, just rent a place by yourself after graduation. Don't threaten me with this."
My dad was unhappy, "Shuyao, why can outsiders live in my house, but my daughter can't, and has to rent a house outside?"
My mother looked at him coldly and said, "Then why can you use the common property of the couple to buy a house and a car for your nephew, but not for my niece?
How much money have you taken back to your mother and your eldest brother's family over the years? Do you think I don't know? Do you want us to go home and calculate it?
I just let Sisi live at home, and you have such a big objection? How about this, you return all the money you took out, and I will let Sisi live back in school."
I knew it was over. My dad was under control, and he was afraid that my mom would check his accounts, so he didn't check at all.
Sure enough, my dad got scared and said, "You've been buying things for Sisi and giving subsidies to your sister over the years, but I haven't said anything."
After saying that, he coughed twice and began to change the subject, "Shuyao, let's have a physical examination every two years from now on, so that we can know sooner if anything happens.
There's a high-end private hospital in City A that a friend recommended to me. He said the service there is good and they have a medical checkup package that's quite suitable. I'll go reserve three spots later. Let's find some time to go there with our whole family."
