Shen Chaochao was wearing a new coat, thinking about the delicious food she had eaten today, drinking soda, and holding the gift that Ji Yu bought.
His steps became lighter along the way and he looked extremely happy.
When he arrived at the door of the Shen family, he could hear the voices of Shen's father and mother talking inside, but it was not that Shen Chaochao wanted to eavesdrop on it on purpose.
The main reason was that the two of them spoke too loudly and happened to mention Shen Chaochao's own name.
"Dad, why hasn't Erya come back yet?"
"Anyway, he went with the kid from the Ji family. The betrothal gift has been received. If anything goes wrong, he will be the one who suffers. It has nothing to do with us."
When she heard the first sentence, Shen Chaochao was still a little happy in her heart. But Shen's father's words extinguished her hope.
It turns out that I am no longer a member of the Shen family. Even if something happens to me, it has nothing to do with them...
Thinking of this, Shen Chaochao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She was obviously a dispensable person in the family, so what was she missing? Why was she still sad?
"I heard that the kid from the Ji family asked for 500 yuan from the man who hit and killed his father?" Mother Shen's voice was filled with excitement.
"Five hundred is five hundred. We can't even covet this much money. Do you want money to buy your life?" Father Shen was still reasonable.
"Tell me, why did we ask for 200 yuan as a betrothal gift? If we had known, we would have asked for 350 like everyone else." Mother Shen's tone was still complaining that the money was too little.
Father Shen took a puff of his pipe and said, "You were the one who asked for 200. Anyway, we don't have any dowry, and we don't need to hold a wedding banquet. These can be counted as 150 yuan."
Mother Shen still didn’t give up: “We can still accept gifts when we hold a banquet!”
Father Shen comforted him, "Forget it, forget it. Yuanliu also paid 150 yuan for breaking off the engagement, so our compromise is enough to make up for it."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Shen Chaozhao felt his heart go cold.
Lin Yuanliu can successfully break off the engagement by spending 150 yuan, and Ji Yu can take me home by spending 200 yuan. Then what am I to my parents? Can I be sold for money like a pig at home?
After Shen Chaochao saw the two of them finished talking, he pushed the door in with a cold face.
When Shen's mother saw the new clothes on Shen Chaochao and the good things she bought, she quickly said, "It seems that the kid from the Ji family is really rich! He bought you so many good things."
After Shen's mother finished speaking, she took these things from Shen Chaochao's hand. While looking at them, she sighed: "There are some for washing hair and wiping face. He also bought vanishing cream and Olay. This kid is willing to spend money."
Mother Shen completely ignored Shen Chaochao's feelings, opened the vanishing cream, dug out a large piece, applied it on her face and neck, and finally even put some on her hands.
Shen Chaochao let her mother open the gift that she treasured, lowering her head and not daring to say a word.
In this home where no one has ever paid attention to her, it seems that she has always been an invisible person who is submissive and has no temper.
"Er Ya, your brothers and sisters have already divided up the gifts that Ji Yu brought last time. It doesn't matter if you don't eat them!" Father Shen said.
Shen Chaochao looked at the gifts that were originally on the cabinet, but now it was empty.
"It's okay, he bought it for you originally." Shen Chaochao tried his best to suppress his sadness.
Mother Shen seemed to remember something, patted her head and asked: "Does Ji Yu still have money? If he still has money, let him give some more money. Tiantian and Dabao are still studying. If they are admitted to university, you can also benefit from it!"
"He bought clothes and other things today and has almost spent all his money. And I heard him and Sister Chunlan say today that they might not have enough money for the wedding!"
This was the first time in Shen Chaochao's life that she lied, and she was also afraid to prevent her parents from asking Ji Yu for money. For the first time, she didn't want to cause trouble for Ji Yu.
"This kid spends money lavishly. 500 yuan is almost enough for a wedding. And it's such a waste to buy such a good thing for you." Mother Shen said while fiddling with the skin care products in her hands.
"Life will definitely be difficult when you get married. But a married woman must obey her husband, and there is no woman who does not suffer! Then you should go home less often, as we can't take care of three children at home by ourselves." Father Shen also said.
Father Shen's words were equally heartless. He was just worried that after his daughter got married, the other party would be too poor to drag down his family!
Shen Chaochao also nodded and said, "I know that after I get married, I will belong to someone else's family. After I get married, I will work hard and will not trouble my parents."
Shen Chaochao suddenly felt very uncomfortable. Her father had just been talking about the three children of the Shen family. It turned out that she was no longer a member of the Shen family.
Shen Chaochao said: “I won’t eat at night. I’m not feeling well. I’m going back to rest.”
Before leaving, he took away everything on the table.
"Who will cook dinner at home if you sleep?" Mother Shen said angrily.
Father Shen advised: "Forget it, just cook another meal! After she leaves, you will have to cook it in the future."
Mother Shen cursed in a low voice: "Little ungrateful wolf, he must have eaten something delicious in the city without telling us at noon. He didn't even bring some back for us to eat."
Shen Chaochao ignored their insults and walked towards his room.
It was called Shen Chaochao's room, but it was actually a room shared by Shen Chaochao and Shen Tiantian. It was just that Shen Tiantian went to school, so she was the only one living there for the time being.
Even if Shen Tiantian went to school, Shen Chaochao could only sleep in her own little bed, and most of the things in the room belonged to Shen Tiantian.
And she couldn't touch Shen Tiantian's things, otherwise when Shen Tiantian came back from vacation and found that her things had been touched, she would definitely make a fuss.
