"Warm Light in the Palm" - Who Will Redeem the Entertainment Godmother (Part 7)...
Qiu's father's attitude seemed tough, but his words were gentle: "What do you mean by not paying me back? You're my own daughter, isn't it right for me to raise you? I just want to show you that your father didn't raise you for nothing, you little ungrateful wretch!"
Qiu Yi hummed casually, taking it as a polite acceptance.
The reason she's so arrogant and confident is because her father, Qiu, has been longing for his son for a long time, but he still hasn't made any money.
When Qiu Yi first came home, it was fine to get a feel for the situation, but watching it all the time would be boring. Ye Xiqing's childhood went through another small acceleration.
After the acceleration, viewers were particularly puzzled by the updated interactions between the Shen family members.
Qiu's father had mentioned having a son earlier, but this plot point wasn't added. When did the system become so friendly to Qing Shen, actually reducing the number of levels for her?
Viewers who have seen the original story recall that the female lead in this world should have a younger brother, which would make her already difficult situation even worse.
The audience was curious about the missing younger brother, but the system remained silent.
As a fictional world, every plot point serves a purpose. Since the Shen family's preference for sons over daughters has been mentioned, there will definitely be corresponding plot developments later on. Since the son's money hasn't arrived, it's natural that someone is making efforts to help.
Ma Cixin returned from her parents' home with her child, her attitude becoming even more assertive. The Shen family couldn't do without her, so she naturally gained the confidence to control everyone.
Children forget things easily. Ma Tingting had already forgotten how Qiu Tianyi had manipulated her after she had been wronged once, and only remembered the grudge of being kicked out.
While at her maternal grandmother's house, Ma Tingting was terrified, worried that she and her mother would really be kicked out.
Now that nothing has happened, Ma Tingting has even more reason to pick a fight with Qiu Tianyi.
Qiu Yi had changed her clothes. Since her mother passed away, few people cared about her basic needs. After Grandma Jiang took over, even though she only had a cheap white short-sleeved shirt and gray pants, it was still much better than before.
Looking at Ma Tingting, who was deliberately picking a fight, Qiu Yi was not afraid of her before, and after gaining a status in the family, she was even less afraid.
Without a trace of remorse, she continued her attack on Ma Tingting: "Don't be so smug. Right now, your mother doesn't have a younger brother. Once she does, you'll be the only one kicked out. By then, your mother won't be your mother anymore. Will she still take you back?"
Ma Tingting: ...
Sometimes, extreme anger stems from extreme fear. The things children fear most are "Your mom doesn't want you anymore" or "We're throwing you away."
Ma Tingting is so bothered by this because it touches on her deepest fear. Once someone brings up this concept to her, she will always be concerned about the "younger brother".
When Ma Tingting was at her maternal grandmother's house, her aunt was a very outgoing person. She had given birth to three sons for the Ma family and was quite proud of herself, so she liked to steer the conversation toward that topic.
After saying this, seeing Ma Tingting standing to the side with a bewildered look, he would laugh and joke, "What are you looking at? When your mom has a little brother, she won't want you anymore~"
Remembering her aunt's words, Ma Tingting burst into tears. This time, without Qiu Yiyi having to beat her, she cried and went to find her mother on her own.
The Shen family didn't have a good impression of the child brought by their new daughter-in-law, and Ma Cixin wasn't the kind of caring mother who took care of everything.
This brat keeps going to find Qiu Tianyi every day, and you can't win an argument with him or beat him up. He's so pathetic that it makes you angry.
He got angry and lost his patience, so he grabbed her and pulled her into the house: "Stop crying! See if you'll ever want to play with her again!"
Ma Cixin's behavior seemed normal to adults, but children have their own value system. Ma Tingting cried even more desperately, thinking that her mother really didn't want her anymore!
Ma Tingting was so frightened that she couldn't eat and thought about it every day. Unfortunately, no one paid attention to her, but Qiu Tianyi quietly slipped behind her.
"Do you want to kick your brother out?"
Ma Tingting was terrified of Qiu Tianyi, but her fear of her "younger brother" was even greater, and she nodded almost unconsciously.
Qiu Tianyi said mysteriously, "Then give me some money and I'll help you."
Ma Tingting: ...
She really did give Qiu Tianyi money...
The Shen family's home is located in a semi-urban area. Following the small path to the main road, you find that there are many more things available. Qiu Tianyi mustered up her courage and ran into a pharmacy, clearly and distinctly repeating the medicine she wanted to the aunt selling medicine.
When Qiu Yi received the medicine box from the boss, the system was momentarily stunned. As a system, it had a large database, and even without a large database, it could read, so it knew that this was a male contraceptive pill.
If it were next to Ye Xiqing before she lost her memory, it would have screamed long ago: "Host! What do you want to do!"
But this was Ye Xiqing with amnesia, so it could only hold back its cries: Amnesiac host! What are you doing?!
When Qiu Yi received the medicine from the pharmacy, the pharmacy owner was speechless. How could the adults send such a child to buy this kind of medicine? But it was just a fleeting thought, and most people wouldn't pursue such a matter.
Listening to the child repeatedly confirm, "Is this medicine that prevents Dad from having babies?"
The pharmacy owner was embarrassed for her father and repeatedly assured him, "Yes, yes, yes!"
And she was made to remember how to take the medicine.
In the autumn, Yi returned home satisfied. She carefully memorized the name of the medicine, and fearing she would forget it, she tore open the packaging, leaving behind a small piece of the cardboard with the name printed on it.
As for why she knew such advanced pharmacological knowledge at such a young age, we have to mention the "commission fee" she gave to He Xinxin back then.
He Xinxin went back and looked at the panda-shaped children's watch, not knowing what expression to make. What use did she have for this thing?
Although it is said that thieves never leave empty-handed, even thieves would not steal this kind of thing. So, during their last meeting, he slipped the watch back to Qiu Yi and casually included a business card.
How much of it can be used depends on how smart the child is.
After pressing the button on her watch, Qiu Yi shook her wrist, but there was no response. So she held up her wrist and ran to show Shen Junjiao: "I can't make a phone call!"
While Shen Junjiao was watching the video and enjoying it, he said without looking up, "It's out of money, huh?"
Qiu Yi's phone card was Qiu Hui's supplementary card, and it was naturally deactivated after Qiu Hui's death.
For Shen Junjiao, this was easy to guess; for Qiu Tianyi, it was also very simple.
Looking at the unmoved Shen Junjiao, Qiu Yi burst into tears without saying a word.
Shen Junjiao: ...
After she went to university, Grandma Jiang ordered Qiu's father to pay her living expenses as a condition for handing over the hardware store to them.
Although Qiu's father was unwilling, he certainly dared not say it on his face and could only pay money every month.
Shen Junjiao is a very frugal person. She usually only subscribes to video streaming services and doesn't have any high-end spending. She saves a lot of money every month.
But as a student who always had to ask her family for money, she must have cherished every penny of her savings. She wouldn't have been so foolish as to not waste money on others, and she turned away without hesitation, pretending not to hear.
Qiu Yi probably knew by nature who to ask for favors from, so she immediately hugged her leg and cried uncontrollably.
Unable to bear the annoyance any longer, Shen Junjiao finally came up with a compromise.
She was the one who installed the Wi-Fi in their house, using her phone number. It seems like a supplementary SIM card was given as a gift when they got the card, and they shared the data and call minutes.
She hadn't thought she'd use a secondary SIM card, so she didn't know where she'd put it. She probably couldn't find it now, but it didn't matter. As a college student, she knew that if something happened, she could go to the service center. If a phone number could be replaced, why couldn't a secondary SIM card?
Shen Junjiao put Qiu Tianyi in front of him, drove his electric scooter to the business hall, and applied for a replacement SIM card.
I was prepared to grit my teeth and pay a sum of money if they asked for it, but not only did they not ask for a penny, they also handled it very quickly. How wonderful!
Feeling better, Shen Junjiao put the SIM card in Qiu Tianyi's hand and dialed her own cell phone.
Looking at her smartwatch, now fully functional, Qiu Tianyi smiled through her tears: "Thank you, Auntie!"
Since Qiu Tianyi came to the house, she hadn't called anyone else. The first person she called out was her, which made Shen Junjiao quite proud.
She's quite popular with kids!
As for who came in and smashed her computer, no one knows.
In a better mood, Shen Junjiao not only got Qiu Tianyi a membership card, but also made an exception and asked her if there was anything she wanted to eat. After getting her answer, he bought her a box of strawberries.
Of course, it's not just for Qiu Yi; it's a gift to show filial piety to her mother, and I'll have some too.
The old lady still loved her daughter, and seeing that her new granddaughter and daughter got along well, her attitude softened a bit.
Qiu Yi was given the biggest and reddest strawberry. She ate it carefully, and when no one was around, she immediately dialed He Xinxin's number.
My dad is going to have a baby brother with my stepmother. They'll definitely treat me like Cinderella after the baby is born. How can I stop them?
He Xinxin: ...
Am I your fairy godmother?
He Xinxin is exhausted from dealing with complicated work while also explaining the meaning of life to a child.
Qiu Tianyi listened to her detailed explanation, tilted her head to think, and after a while, said to He Xinxin, "Then can I secretly give that medicine that prevents me from having babies to my dad?"
He Xinxin: ...
He glanced around, then pressed the receiver: "What phone did you use to call me?"
"That watch from before."
He Xinxin immediately opened a webpage and searched for that brand of phone watch to see if it could record audio.
After searching, I realized I was crazy. What does a little kid know about recordings?
So she said directly to Qiu Tianyi, "You wouldn't understand if I told you this, but you need to know that what you're thinking about right now isn't anything else, but that your dad found out and you're going to get a spanking."
Qiu Yi looked up in thought, unsure if she had taken the words to heart.
When Ma Tingting returned, I immediately handed her the medicine that I had gone through so much trouble to buy, and told her to take action.
Even though Ma Tingting was young, she knew this was not a good thing and was terrified.
Qiu Tianyi mimicked He Xinxin's tone and patted her shoulder earnestly: "It's okay, you're just a kid. Even if you're found out, nothing will happen."
Ma Tingting: Really?
While most people wouldn't listen to their enemies, what can you do when children aren't so bright?
The Shen family has a habit of drinking water after meals. In the past, they would let it cool down and then drink it separately. Now, Ma Tingting has suddenly become very proactive and takes the initiative to bring water to everyone.
Qiu's father never imagined that his two little ones would dare to do such a thing, drinking it down without any scruples, and saying sarcastically as they drank, "Look at this girl, and then look at someone else."
Qiu Tianyi knew that these words were directed at her, but she wasn't angry. She just looked at Ma Tingting.
Ma Tingting: ...
"Awooo!"
She was so scared she wanted to cry, and then she actually cried. No one knew she was scared, and Qiu's father immediately blamed Qiu Yi.
Look how scared you've made your sister!
Extremely frightened, Ma Tingting was left to stay overnight with her biological mother, which meant the couple had no nightlife at all, and all the medication she took that night was wasted.
But it didn't matter. The next day, Ma Tingting was no longer afraid and started to become a skilled worker.
Because of Qiu Yi's domineering attitude, she occupied her aunt's room and wouldn't let anyone in, so Ma Tingting had to sleep in Qiu's parents' room.
But things couldn't stay like this forever. After elementary school started, Ma Tingting also started school. Taking advantage of the time she was at school, Qiu's parents forced the two girls to reconcile and sleep in the same room again.
Before this, Qiu Yi and Ma Tingting had a tense relationship, but afterwards, things inexplicably got better.
It's terrifying when two children are making a scene together. It's a blessing that they can get along peacefully. Everyone in the Shen family is thankful.
That's true. Kids don't hold grudges overnight. They'll be fine once they start school and the teacher teaches them a lesson.
Although Qiu Yi and Ma Tingting were in different grades, they went to and from school together.
When they got to the school and no one was around, Ma Tingting jogged up to Qiu Tianyi: "Tianyi, will we get caught...?"
Qiu Tianyi replied without hesitation, "If you don't tell me, then you won't know."
"Will Daddy be alright? Mom said you can't take medicine randomly..."
"Don't worry, he's my biological father, not yours. Would I harm him? Ask your mother for more money later. I don't have any money to buy the new medicine."
Ma Tingting: ...
With Ma's mother in charge of the hardware store, it was impossible for her not to secretly subsidize her daughter. Ma Tingting still had many opportunities to ask for money and save it.
But money is a good thing, and even a child knows that. Ma Tingting said unhappily, "Didn't you say you had enough money to buy an entire school? Why do you keep asking me for money..."
Qiu Yi said in a serious tone, "My money is all frozen. I'll only get it back when I grow up."
"After you give me the money, will you pay me back?"
"Yes, yes, I'll pay you back an extra hundred yuan then."
One hundred yuan is an astronomical figure for a child, and Ma Tingting's eyes lit up immediately.
But as a villainous supporting character, she wasn't so easily appeased: "No, I want ten hundred dollars each!"
Then Qiu Yi would definitely say without hesitation, "Okay, okay, okay."
Driven by a desire for ten hundred-yuan bills, Ma Tingting diligently helped Qiu Tianyi with the dirty work. Only when Ma Tingting grew up did she realize what she had done as a child...
Over the years, no matter how hard Ma's mother and Qiu's father tried, they had no children. Ma Cixin had undergone countless checkups, but there were no problems.
She wasn't good-tempered and retorted to Qiu's father, "How could it be my problem? I already have a daughter!"
Qiu's father didn't think it was his fault either; after all, everyone has a daughter!
I went for the checkup full of confidence, but the results came back: azoospermia.
Qiu's father felt like the sky had fallen. How could this be? Where did his daughter come from? Could it be that his ex-wife, who was such an honest person, would also cheat on him?
Enraged, he immediately had a paternity test done with Qiu Tianyi: they were biologically related.
The doctor comforted him, saying that although the probability of natural conception with azoospermia is extremely low, it is not zero, and he was probably young at the time and it was not so serious. He should be very happy to have a child under these circumstances.
In fact, if Qiu's father were willing to cooperate with the hospital and undergo in-depth treatment, it might be possible to discover the cause of his azoospermia, which is that he had been taking long-acting contraceptives. In that case, Qiu Yi and Ma Tingting would both be in serious trouble.
But a man's pride is sometimes more important than anything else.
He had previously sworn to Ma Cixin that it was her problem, so how could he dare to admit it was his own problem now? Wouldn't he be unable to hold his head up high for the rest of his life?
After receiving the results, she immediately hid the diagnosis report, turned around and scolded Ma Cixin, "I'm fine too! It must be that you damaged your body when you had your first child. The problem couldn't be with me!"
It's impossible for couples not to argue after being together for a long time. The two of them had already had a tense relationship due to various conflicts over the years, and now this incident has made their argument even more intense.
Seeing this, Ma Tingting was almost in tears; it was all her fault.
She timidly said to her mother, "Mom, do you want to try dating Uncle Shen again...?"
It's not too late for her to survive; she's stopped taking the medication!
