Chapter 124: Some people are bad in their bones
"Mom, we haven't eaten yet." Wen Xin and Wen Yu said in a low voice.
They really haven't eaten yet today. After the police left, they were worried for two days, but it seems that nothing is wrong.
Wen Yu went to the video game arcade again and soon spent all the money in his pocket.
Later, he begged Wenjing to give him something to eat every day and promised to pay him back when his uncle gave him the money.
As a result, my uncle's company went bankrupt, the court checked the accounts, and sealed up the house.
Wen Xin panicked. She was not stupid and she quickly figured it out: her uncle was deliberately trying to steal their family property, otherwise how could he transfer the house to his name quietly?
But it was too late to figure it out. Grandma and Qin Yanjun were arrested, the house was sealed off, and they were kicked out!
There was nothing left except an unconscious and stinking father, their clothes and a few old quilts.
Aunt Yang borrowed a cart so they could take Dad away.
After wandering around for a while and having nowhere to go, I finally thought of Deng Xiuzhen.
They felt that as long as they said something nice to their mother, she would be nice to them. After all, their mother had always considered everything for them, and even after what happened last time, she had never been mean to them.
What they didn't know was that Deng Xiuzhen was so disappointed that she didn't even bother to say anything.
"We'll talk about it after you've done it. Otherwise, get out now!" Deng Xiuzhen can see through this kind of ungrateful person and will not be soft-hearted.
Wen Jing stood beside Deng Xiuzhen, watching indifferently, saying nothing, and not checking on Tan Yanlin's condition.
Wen Xin and Wen Yu could only carry Qin Yanlin to the bathroom and adjust the water temperature.
Wen Xin came out with clothes to wash.
Wen Yu scrubbed Tan Yanlin carefully with soap.
Smell it after washing, and wash again if there is a smell.
The two of them were crying as they washed, but they didn't dare to say a word, not even to cry out loud.
After helping Qin Yanlin take a bath, the two of them took a bath themselves, washed all the clothes and quilts, and hung them out to dry in the back yard. They were both exhausted, and their stomachs were growling with hunger.
Hesitantly, he walked up to Deng Xiuzhen and asked in a low voice, "Mom, is it time to eat?"
Deng Xiuzhen laughed sarcastically and said, "You want to eat now? You cleaned up yourselves and used my water and electricity, and you want to eat my food? You wish!"
Wen Xin and Wen Yu were stunned.
"If you want to eat, go cook, and cook it cleanly and well. Only when we feel it is okay, can you eat. Do you understand?"
"Mother!"
"If you don't want to do it, get out now. The gate is over there!" Deng Xiuzhen pointed at the gate and snorted coldly.
Wen Xin and Wen Yu's faces were suddenly covered with tears, but looking at Deng Xiuzhen who was smiling at them, they had no choice but to walk towards the kitchen obediently.
"Mom, is this a bit too much? Will they hate us?" Wen Jing asked in a low voice.
"Wen Jing, have you forgotten how they harmed you? Don't think that they didn't have the intention to harm you subjectively, but they helped others to plot against you just to be able to go out and have fun. Do you think such people deserve sympathy? Do you think they can easily change for the better?
You have to remember that some people are inherently bad. If you are kind to them, they will stab you in the back. You must use your kindness on kind people! And you have to be moderate and sharp!"
"Mom, I understand. It's like the farmer and the snake. The snake bites people. Even if you save it, it will still bite you! So, we can help them, but we can't give them the chance to hurt us."
The two went to check on Tan Yanlin. He was very thin, probably due to malnutrition. Fortunately, he didn't have bedsores or anything like that. They should have been able to turn him over.
"Mom, can we ask a doctor to come and take a look?" Wen Jing asked in a low voice.
"Sure, you can go and invite them yourself in the afternoon." Deng Xiuzhen replied with a smile.
Looking at the skinny Tan Yanlin, she was like looking at a stranger, without any emotional fluctuations, let alone feelings.
But she knew in her heart that this was Wen Jing's father, and it was impossible to let him fend for himself.
Because of the arrival of Wen Xin, Wen Yu and Tan Yanlin, Deng Xiuzhen and her friends' trip to Kyoto had to be postponed.
Because of Deng Xiuzhen's insistence, Wen Xin and Wen Yu, who had no money, could only resign themselves to their fate and work like slaves. Every day they had to wash and turn over Tan Yanlin, clean the entire yard, cook for the family, and wash everyone's clothes.
Thanks to the care of professional medical staff, Qin Yanlin is in much better health than before. He has gained some weight and his complexion is rosier.
"Bang bang cha, bang bang cha, bang bang bang cha" bursts of gong and drum sounds came from the entrance of the alley, attracting everyone in the alley to look. They had no idea which wedding was being held in the alley, and they hadn't heard any news about it.
"That, that's the principal of a key high school! Wow, why is he here?" someone exclaimed.
"That's the head teacher of the Rocket Class! Oh, all the teachers of the Rocket Class are here!" someone exclaimed.
"Are you here for the top scorer in the college entrance examination?" Someone got closer to the truth.
"Is the top scorer in the college entrance examination here with us?" someone questioned.
…
The onlookers were talking about it and had different opinions; the gong and drum team was overjoyed and in high spirits.
The sound of gongs and drums went straight past the crowd and into the alley.
"That, that girl..." Someone suddenly remembered that when he was watching the fun two days ago, there was a girl who looked a little familiar.
"She is the top scorer in the college entrance examination! I've seen her photo!" Someone dropped a big bomb.
“Who is the top scorer in the college entrance examination?”
"Who is?"
“Who is the top scorer in the college entrance examination?”
…
The crowd was boiling.
After the excitement, the crowd followed the gong and drum team and rushed to Deng Xiuzhen's house like a tide.
The door was knocked open, and the whole family, led by Deng Xiuzhen, were all confused. They didn't understand why so many people were gathered at the door, making it so crowded that even the wind couldn't blow through.
"Wenjing, congratulations!" The head teacher Qian Youqing stepped forward, held Wenjing's hand, and congratulated loudly. His smile was so deep that the wrinkles on his face were as dense as walnut shells, with clear lines.
"Thank you, thank you for cultivating such outstanding children for our city!" The principal bowed slightly and nodded deeply to Deng Xiuzhen to express his deep gratitude.
"Look! Look! That's the top scorer in the college entrance examination!" someone shouted.
"Where is it? Where is it? Make way!" Some people were trying to squeeze forward.
"Don't push! Don't push! You're the only one who wants to watch? Others don't want to watch?" Some people protested and refused to let go.
"That girl is so pretty! How can there be such a pretty girl who is well-educated and pretty?" Some people sighed with envy and planned to go back and move a location for their ancestral graves to see if they could make some money.
"When did this girl move in?" someone asked.
"Alas, the information is outdated. If we had known it earlier, we would have gone to find her for advice." Someone sighed and calculated in his mind that he would be willing to pay any amount of money if Qin Wenjing could give him some advice.
