Chapter 741: Video Calls Must Be Made While Lying Down
My mother's logic is really comparable to that of the principal in my middle school!
When I was in the first grade of junior high school, I was responsible for pulling weeds during the school cleaning. In the second grade, we were the ones pulling weeds again. Some classmates raised objections and asked why we didn’t take turns?
The principal said that it was a rotation. Last year it was the first grade, this year it was the second grade, and next year it will be the third grade's turn to pull weeds. It's quite fair!
"Mom, now that Deng Sisi hurt you and got arrested, you're starting to think about repairing your relationship with me. This makes me feel like a spare tire. You only think of me when she's not around."
My mother couldn't hold back her tears. She sobbed softly, her voice choked. "Mengmeng, Mom didn't mean it. Mom just doesn't know how to balance the relationship between you two."
She took a breath, turned her head to the window, and said slowly: "I remember when Sisi was six years old, she told me that she envied you so much, that everyone liked you, that you had a lot of toys, a lot of snacks, a lot of beautiful clothes, and that you could live in a big house. It would be great if her mother was me.
I felt so bad when I heard that. To comfort her, I told her that she could treat this place as her own home and that her aunt would love her more than her mother. She pouted and said I was lying. I told her it was true, and she immediately asked if she wanted her sister's new toy.
At this point, I already knew what was going to happen next, “So in order to make her believe that you loved her, you used me as a sacrifice and proved your love for her by taking my things.
You see, you still treat me as a backup to complement her."
"No, no, I really just wanted to coax her at first, thinking that you have a lot of toys and you won't care about that one.
But I don’t know when it started, this kind of thing has become a habit. I always feel that you already have a lot, and you won’t care about losing a little bit... "My mother's voice became softer and softer.
"Yes, it has become a habit not only for you but also for me. Every time I lose a little bit of maternal love, it has become a habit. I really don't care anymore.
So why do you want me to believe that you love me now? What do you want me to do?"
I felt mixed emotions, but I remained calm on the surface and looked at my mother calmly.
My mother's sad and guilty look made it hard for me to say anything harsh. I softened my tone, suppressed my physical discomfort, and took her hand. "Mom, I don't need you to change anything immediately. I just hope you can understand that I am your daughter too. When my interests conflict with others, you can stand by me."
My mother opened her eyes wide, raised her head and looked at me with tears in her eyes: "Mengmeng, there will be no one else from now on. You are the only one for me."
Forget it, at least there is one thing about my mother that is worthy of praise, that is, she speaks the truth and tells the truth in a short time.
Now it's just me, and that's the point! I'm too lazy to get angry with her.
"Mom, the ice is three feet thick and it didn't freeze overnight. We can take it slowly and re-establish a more normal mother-daughter relationship, okay?" I said it sincerely, and I felt that my mother listened to me, and she nodded solemnly.
Just when my mother was about to say something to me, my father came home.
He pushed the door open and saw my mom and I sitting together, holding hands. My dad's face was filled with joy. "Hey, what are you two talking about? You look so happy."
I:"?"
Which eye of my dad saw us so happy?
When it comes to being heartless and tactless, my dad is also a good one!
My mother forced a smile and said, "I was just talking to Mengmeng about her engagement party. By the way, has her uncle been notified?"
My dad took off his coat and said, "When you told him you were injured, you also told him that Mengmeng's engagement party had to be rescheduled. He just replied, "I know," and then there was no news. You can notify him when the time is set.
If you can come, come. If you can’t, forget it.”
It seems my dad has a big problem with my uncle. I looked at my mom, and she said with an unhappy look on her face, "What's your attitude? He's my own brother. I just helped him a few times, and you've been taking money from your eldest brother's house a lot."
My father remained silent. From what my mother said, it seemed that as the eldest sister, she had a strong sense of responsibility.
I began to be glad that this uncle lived far away from us, otherwise I would have one more competitor, which would be really tiring.
At night, I lay on the bed and called Xiao Shiqiu. As for why I lay on my stomach instead of lying down, this was the result of research among the six of us.
When I'm video calling my boyfriend, I look more attractive when I'm lying down. Even those without cleavage can force it out. If I lie down, it's flat.
Sure enough, as soon as the video started, Xiao Shiqiu's eyes deepened. His performance made me very satisfied, and I was secretly proud in my heart that I was also a person with something to offer.
"Little devil, you look so beautiful when you lie down." Xiao Shiqiu never hesitates to praise me.
I clamped my throat and said, "Then they'll wait for you to come back and see them."
"Speak properly and don't imitate that Lin Ling."
I rolled my eyes, looking so unromantic. "My dad and I picked up my mom from the hospital today. My dad said we can start planning the engagement party."
Then I told him everything that had happened in the past two days, in detail.
"Who do you think had Aunt Wang's ex-husband beaten up and forced to divorce? He ended up beating Aunt Wang up again."
This was something I had thought about for a long time, so I just asked it casually, not expecting Xiao Shiqiu to know.
But for some reason, I felt a hint of guilt in his eyes. Before I could react, he said righteously, "People like Aunt Wang's ex-husband might have offended someone outside. They just found a random excuse to beat him up."
"No way! There are people who take revenge on others and use the excuse of forcing them to divorce?" Although I don't have much social experience, I still think it sounds a bit outrageous.
"Who knows? The reason isn't important. What's important is that I actually helped Aunt Wang get a divorce, right? As long as the goal is achieved, that's all that matters.
The result is good. After the divorce, can't Aunt Wang continue to work in your house? After we move, we can also let her continue to come and take care of you. How great is that? "Xiao Shiqiu's smile was a little deliberate, and I always felt that something was wrong.
But he didn't give me time to think and continued, "Baby, they're already divorced, don't think too much about it. Worrying too much is not good for your skin."
I nodded. That's right. It has already happened. There is no point in knowing who did it.
"Oh, by the way, Aunt Wang was able to get a smooth divorce this time. Luckily, she was lucky enough to meet someone from a women's rights organization who fought the lawsuit for her pro bono. Afterwards, Aunt Wang wanted to thank that person, but she didn't know where to find him."
