Chapter 419 Strong Cactus
As my cousin spoke, a hint of grievance unconsciously appeared in her voice.
The distressed brother-in-law quickly took her hand and comforted her, "Baby, my mother said that you are her biological daughter, I will be her son-in-law, and most of my mother will belong to you in the future."
My cousin, who was just beginning to feel sad, burst out laughing when her brother-in-law made her laugh, and the sad atmosphere that had just emerged was instantly destroyed.
My father put on the attitude of an elder at the right moment, and his tone was as compassionate as that of the old abbot of Lingyin Temple: "Okay, your second aunt and I will definitely come.
Jundi, your father did something wrong and he has to pay the price for it. As his younger brother, I really can't say anything.
But no matter what, you are my niece, and your second uncle and your younger uncle are still your maternal family. You can come to us if you have any difficulties.
You and Mengmeng are sisters, so please keep in touch with each other in the future."
My father tried to comfort my cousin with the attitude of an elder. Regardless of whether he was sincere or not, at least his attitude was there to let my brother-in-law know that his wife's family was not without support.
But I know that my father paid for my cousin's high school tuition, and my grandmother originally didn't even plan to let her go to high school.
It was my father who persuaded my grandmother that it was useful for girls to study. Factories would not dare to hire girls who had graduated from junior high school but were not yet adults, and it was too early for them to get married. It would be better for them to go to high school, and it would be much easier to find a partner after graduation.
Grandma reluctantly agreed and asked my dad to guarantee to cover my cousin's high school tuition and living expenses.
When my cousin went to high school, my grandmother said that my father should not favor one over the other, so my cousin's tuition and living expenses should also be paid by my father.
Moreover, since my cousin is the eldest grandson of the Xia family and is relatively precious, he not only has to pay money, but also double the amount.
My father, a filial son, accepted it because the cost was not too high.
I have always been glad that I did not live with my grandmother. I am not as strong as my cousin.
If it were me, with parents like that and a mean grandmother, life would be unbearable and I would have to die.
My cousin was like a cactus. Not only did she survive to adulthood, but she also had thorns all over her body that would prick anyone who tried to hurt her, causing them to bleed.
However, after she met her brother-in-law, the cactus covered with thorns changed its style and became a silly and cute succulent that needed care.
I am just the opposite of her. Before I met Xiao Shiqiu, I was a softie who would just endure being bullied. I only wanted to perform better to win my mother's favor.
For that little bit of pitiful maternal love, I am willing to try my best to please my mother.
But Xiao Shiqiu made me feel like a little princess who was held in the palm of his hand. I didn't need to swallow my anger or compromise myself for a little living expenses. He gave me enough confidence to face the injustice I suffered.
It’s really strange that although they were both in love, my cousin felt relieved when she met my brother-in-law.
But because of Xiao Shiqiu, I became strong inside.
So good love will fill in the gaps and make you a better and more perfect person.
When I returned to the apartment in the evening, I asked Xiao Shiqiu to watch TV with me. He kindly brought a basin of fresh longan and prepared to peel it for me to eat.
I turned on the TV and Bluetooth speaker, found the most popular Korean drama and started playing it, but found that there was only picture but no sound.
"Why don't you try turning up the volume?" Xiao Shiqiu peeled a longan and fed it to me.
Before I could adjust the volume, an indescribable sound suddenly came from inside. Looking at the TV screen, the hero and heroine were clearly just holding hands, there was no reason to make such a noise.
