Auntie was very pleased, patted her head, and said she was very sensible.
For many days in a row, my aunt praised her while playing mahjong with others: "My Qianqian is very sensible. She said in private that it was not easy for me to raise her and that she should be filial to me in the future. I have not raised her for nothing. She is such a good child."
"Qianqian is very sensible. She has been helping her aunt with chores since she was little. Where can you find such a good girl?"
Shi Qianqian was very happy. Although her aunt didn't praise her because of her grades, at least she praised her, cared about her, and valued her.
Even at school, she can hold her head high with dignity.
She was just like everyone else.
She has someone who loves her and a very capable older brother.
She speaks confidently with her classmates and can even loudly proclaim that her brother is a hero.
Her classmates thought she was bragging. Many of the boys in the school who played games idolized Hero and didn't believe her.
She took her brother's picture to school so everyone could see the blue rabbit.
Her classmates were stunned and started to fawn over her.
She felt like she was the center of attention.
It was all given to her by her brother.
Auntie took Shi Qianqian with her everywhere she went, and boasted about her to the neighbors, saying, "Qianqian is going to live with her brother. Do you know how amazing Fei Bai is now?"
The neighbors came up curiously: "Are you talking about Fei Bai, the nephew who survived the earthquake? How is he now? I've never heard you mention him."
My aunt said, "Just because I didn't mention him doesn't mean I don't care about him. He's very rich now. He plays esports and his name is Hero. You probably don't understand, but your kids should know. He's a top player. I checked, and the news said he's the richest professional player in the KPL."
"Wow, that's amazing! Hero's rich now, and you guys raised his sister, he'll definitely come back to take care of you!"
Auntie was pleased and very happy, and treated Shi Qianqian especially well.
No one said she was poorly raised; they only said she was very sensible.
She's more obedient than anyone else.
It seems that she was wrong in Tang Yaoyao's eyes, and even more so in her brother's eyes.
She didn't know where she went wrong.
Shi Qianqian felt wronged, and tears welled up in her eyes. She felt extremely depressed, and the feeling of being the center of attention plummeted.
She could no longer sustain her affection for her brother.
Seeing this, Xu Xingchen said, "Why don't I take Qianqian away first? Her presence here is making you all quite uncomfortable."
Tang Yaoyao saw that Shi Qianqian was silent, with her head down, wiping away her tears.
Her dress looked very new, but it didn't fit well; it was too big, like a little girl wearing adult clothes.
She is already seventeen years old. According to the Hero family's genes, she should be over 1.6 meters tall, but she is rather short.
The cause is malnutrition from childhood.
Tang Yaoyao didn't know why Xu Xingchen was so enthusiastic. She also knew that Shi Qian kept her here so that she could keep Hero under control.
If it's sent back, Shi Qianqian might send it back one day.
If Shi Qian makes a decision to let Shi Qianqian follow Hero, he will use every means at his disposal.
The troublesome one is still Xu Xingchen.
Tang Yaoyao suddenly changed her mind. She felt that Shi Qianqian's personality was not something she had developed herself, but rather something caused by Shi Qian's family.
“I know you mean well, but it’s not good to trouble you. You know Shi Qianqian’s personality; once she does it, she’ll do it again. Keeping her around will also affect your life.” Tang Yaoyao said, “We’ll handle our family matters ourselves.”
Tang Yaoyao has rejected Xu Xingchen again.
She was worried about Shi Qianqian following someone she didn't know well.
To avoid creating other hidden dangers.
Xu Xingchen kindly said, "It's okay. I think Shi Qianqian and I are both from poor families, so I'll understand her better."
Qiao Yanzhi chimed in, "How can that be the same? Character is formed from childhood. This child is only seventeen, and her mind is not fully mature. She's not easy to raise. She's Hero's sister, so we're embarrassed to trouble you to take care of her. We need to educate her properly when necessary."
Hero looked at Qiao Yanzhi, not quite understanding: "Mom."
Qiao Yanzhi waved her hand to reassure him: "Blood ties are indeed hard to sever. Shi Qian sent Shi Qianqian over because he valued that."
Then, gently, he asked Shi Qianqian, "Qianqian, what did your uncle say to you before he came?"
Shi Qianqian's eyes were filled with tears as she sobbed softly, "They raised me until I was seventeen, spending a lot of money on it. I can't forget them. Forgetting them would make me an ingrate, and my deceased parents would never forgive me."
She started crying again, saying aggrievedly, "My aunt also said that I should hold onto my brother and never let go, because one day he will like me. If I go back like this, I will be a failure, my life will have no meaning, I won't need to study anymore, I should go out and work to earn money to support the whole family."
She clenched her fingers tightly and said, "My aunt is pregnant with my brother, so they won't want me."
