Yu Shuang has now traveled to the point in time where her eldest daughter, Xia Nuan, is graduating from junior high school during the summer vacation.
After being manipulated by the original owner's sympathy and emotional manipulation, she agreed to drop out of school to earn money to support her younger siblings.
This was a turning point in my eldest daughter's life.
"Mom, we're all packed. Let's go home."
Yu Shuang came to her senses and saw that her eldest daughter had already tidied up the roadside stall, so she nodded in satisfaction.
She finds this child pleasing to the eye and doesn't need any reformation or education.
Suddenly, I noticed that the other person's eyes were a little red and swollen, and knowing the answer, I asked:
Why are your eyes red?
"It's nothing, it just got some sand in, but it's all better now."
The young girl always shoulders her own burdens and never expresses her grievances unless she can't help it anymore.
It's not that I don't know how to fight for my own interests, but I feel sorry for the original owner of this body.
Because in her eyes, her mother had already done a great job running a roadside stall from dawn till dusk every day to support the family.
She didn't need to cause her mother any trouble over something so trivial.
Yu Shuang looked worried.
"Getting sand in is no small matter; it could easily cause infection. You should rest at home for the next few days and don't need to come and help."
Xia Nuan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
"How can that be? You're all alone..."
Yu Shuang interrupted without allowing any room for argument:
"Didn't your mother get through all those years alone? Listen to your mother."
The young girl still felt a little guilty.
After all, she wasn't really blind; she never expected that such a small lie would attract her mother's attention so much.
"But…"
"No buts. It's a good opportunity to keep a closer eye on your younger siblings at home. They're not little anymore; it's time to cultivate their practical skills. Don't let them develop lazy habits that will be hard to break later."
The little girl looked shocked, as if she couldn't quite believe these words came from her mother's mouth.
You know, Mom didn't have such a forward-thinking mindset.
All she knew was to work hard to earn money, exhausting herself to give her younger siblings the best she could.
But is it too late to correct my younger siblings' bad habits now?
"Mom, my younger brother and sister are going through a rebellious phase right now, and they might be a bit difficult to manage."
I vaguely remember that a few days ago, my younger brother was so engrossed in watching TV that Mom forcibly turned it off and threw a huge tantrum.
He even punched and kicked his mother.
My younger sister was trying to outdo the girls in her class, so she stole money from my mother to buy pretty and expensive dolls.
After being caught, instead of admitting his mistake, he blamed his mother for being incompetent.
Hysteria: If you can't give me a good life, why did you bring me into this world?!
The habit of being lazy and gluttonous has long been ingrained. Changing it would definitely require a huge uproar.
"Take it slow, you'll eventually be able to control them. Just don't spoil them in the future."
Xia Nuan hesitated, then said: ……
Is it because she spoils her younger siblings?
It's clearly Mom who's always spoiled them...
...
The mother and daughter returned to their old, dilapidated apartment at 10 p.m.
Xia Xiaotian was still watching TV in the living room.
Hearing a noise from the doorway, he didn't even lift his eyelids, and even uttered a complaint.
"Mom, eldest sister, could you please keep your voices down? You're disturbing my TV viewing."
Yu Shuang paused in her shoe-changing motion. Why did she suddenly feel such an itch to change her shoes?
Xia Nuan's movements became gentler and slower.
He gave Yu Shuang a look.
It's as if it's saying: See? I told you it wouldn't be easy to manage.
Yu Shuang changed her shoes, strode over, and grabbed the little brat by the ear.
"How many times have I told you? Don't watch TV so late! Have you been ignoring me all this time? If I see you still watching TV before 9 pm, don't blame me for being rude!"
As she spoke, she forcefully snatched the remote control from the little boy's hand and turned off the TV.
The moment the little kid's ear was grabbed, he put on a mask of pain and screamed:
"Ah! Ah! Mom, you're crazy! Let go! Let go! Ah... Why are you doing this to me?! You don't have money to take me out, so what's wrong with me watching TV at home?! Ah... Waaah... I won't watch anymore, okay?!"
He tried desperately to save his ear and argued his case, but all he could do was endure even more intense pain.
He only gave in when he realized that Yu Shuang was determined to turn off the TV.
However, one could still detect anger and resentment in his tone.
This was the first time his mother had ever been so cruel to him.
It's just watching TV! He's always stayed up this late before. I would have just told him to turn it off. Was it really necessary to hit him? Waaah…
"What kind of look is that? Am I your mother or your enemy?"
Yu Shuang showed no intention of letting go; instead, she increased her grip.
The original owner was a terrible mother; this little brat didn't acknowledge her as his mother from the bottom of his heart.
The little brat, feeling the pain, immediately gave in.
"Mom...you're my own mother, please let go first!?"
Once the pressure on his ear disappeared, the little brat pounced on Yu Shuang like a madman:
"I hate you, I hate you! What right did you have to hit me?! What right do you have... ah..."
The words came to an abrupt halt.
Fate's ear was once again in Yu Shuang's hands, causing her to grimace in pain.
He was puzzled. How could his mother so accurately grab his ear in this situation?
"Smack!"
A crisp, loud slap left someone stunned, covering their face in disbelief.
"You...you hit me?!"
Yu Shuang said confidently:
"I didn't beat you enough before, which is why you've become such a spoiled brat. If you don't change these bad habits, I'll beat you every single day!"
