Although Liu Shihua was not close to the house, her five senses had become much more acute, and she could still hear what her parents were saying inside.
Looking at her calm younger sister beside her, Liu Shihua was sure she had heard the conversation inside the room.
So he could no longer suppress his doubts, "Lele, why is Dad doing this?"
Dad went to another city for treatment of his leg injury. Mom had clearly promised to send money if he could get better, but in the end she didn't!
This is outrageous! If it weren't for my sister having money, what would my father and sister do while they're away?
Did Mom consider how difficult life was for Dad and my sister when she did this?
Besides, hasn't Mom always hoped that Dad could get healthy?
But she clearly said it could be cured, so why isn't she sending money anymore?
Liu Shihua didn't believe her story at all. He wasn't really stupid; how could he believe an excuse that couldn't even fool a child?
But his dad actually believed it!
And surprisingly, he didn't blame his mother afterward?
Why is that?
The young Liu Shihua really couldn't understand it.
This is such a big deal, not like those little squabbles we used to have. Why did Dad choose not to make a fuss about it?
He was filled with doubts but couldn't find the answers, so he turned his attention to his own sister.
In his mind, his sister was smart enough to know why.
But his sister didn't give him an answer. She just told him to "think about it yourself" and turned away...
Liu Shihua: ? ? ?
I stood there blankly for a long time without moving, and I felt that my sister had changed a bit again.
But why?
Could it be that you suffered a lot on this trip, which is why you're in a bad mood?
But that doesn't make sense, because my sister was in a pretty good mood yesterday.
Little did he know that his sister was simply too lazy to deal with these trivial family matters; after all, it wasn't her concern.
In other words, Liu Shile didn't care about her in-laws' family controlling their children, so why should she care about so many things?
Is it any of an outsider's business to interfere in the affairs of this couple?
No, that's why she doesn't care and lets them do whatever they want.
"Shihua, come help me out." Liu Shixi felt uneasy and wanted to talk to someone.
She originally wanted to call her younger sister over to talk, but thinking that her sister must be very tired after being gone for so long, she had to settle for calling her younger brother instead.
Hearing her elder sister's call, Liu Shihua snapped out of her daze and strode to the kitchen.
The siblings both had things on their minds and doubts, so they were able to talk to each other.
The siblings talked for a long time but still couldn't figure out why.
Originally, it was good news that my older brother had news, and it was also good news that there was a possibility that my father's leg could be cured.
But what was the result?
"Shihua, didn't Lele say anything?" Liu Shixi thought for a moment before asking her younger brother.
She thought her younger sister was very smart and probably knew what was going on, but her expression had been very indifferent before.
Liu Shihua shook her head. "No, I asked her, and she told me to think about it myself."
As he said this, he felt that his sister might be feeling a little disheartened, since what their mother had done was indeed too much.
That's bad enough, but the most crucial thing is that Dad chose to forgive him, showing no backbone whatsoever. Under such circumstances, it's normal for my sister to ignore him.
That's why Liu Shihua is said to be the person who understands her sister the most.
His idea was pretty close to the truth, but he wasn't sure.
Liu Shixi was speechless. Well, her younger sister's temperament was a bit indifferent these days, and she didn't care about ordinary things.
"By the way, eldest sister, hasn't eldest brother written back yet?"
Since she couldn't figure out what was going on at home, Liu Shihua decided to stop thinking about it and instead started to care about her older brother.
He idolized his older brother the most, and when he first heard the news, he secretly cried for a long time.
Now that he knows Da Ke is safe and sound, if it weren't for his parents' situation, he would have been overjoyed.
Now that my attention has been diverted, my mood has lifted.
Speaking of her elder brother, Liu Shixi was in a good mood and recounted the information she knew.
However, her older brother never wrote back, so even if she wanted to study with him, there was nothing she could do.
The siblings were talking when the postman outside called out, telling them to come and collect their mail.
Liu Shile was reading a book inside when she heard the noise outside and came out of the house.
There are no distant relatives in the family. The only person who writes letters home is my eldest brother. Is this my eldest brother's letter?
She was about to go out to get the letter when someone ran past her like a gust of wind. Who else could it be but her adoptive mother?
Actually, Zhang Sumei kept the fact that Liu Shiguo was sending money home a secret from Liu Shixi.
Hearing that a letter had arrived made her a little panicked, but there was nothing she could do but run out and grab the letter.
She really didn't expect her boss to send letters so frequently. She sighed inwardly, realizing that she hadn't had much luck this year.
Judging from her adoptive mother's behavior, Liu Shile knew that the old lady was probably hiding something from everyone.
She didn't bother to guess, so she activated her mental energy and saw a remittance slip with a considerable sum of money on it, and the remitter was Liu Shiguo.
Wow, this guy is really ruthless. Not only did he receive a large sum of money, but he also didn't send any money to his father for medical treatment.
Liu Shile was truly impressed; her cheapskate mother was really something else.
Thinking about how selfish her adoptive mother was, Liu Shile suddenly didn't want to give her the benefit she was entitled to.
Okay, let's see what my brother says in his letter later. If he doesn't mention sending money, then that money belongs to her.
However, she only put the money away temporarily to support her father in his old age.
Honestly, she didn't care about the money, but she didn't approve of her mother's approach.
She's already acting like this; who knows what she might do next?
Thinking this way, Liu Shile felt no guilt whatsoever about taking the money, since she didn't need it anyway.
I'm just teaching my cheap mom a lesson. I can't let her get away with doing something disgusting and still benefit from it, can I?
There's no such thing as a perfect life!
"Mom, did my older brother write back again?" Liu Shixi asked excitedly as she came out of the kitchen.
Her eyes sparkled as she spoke.
Zhang Sumei rolled her eyes at her, but still nodded.
Seeing that she wanted to come and read the letter, she immediately told her to hurry up and leave, "Shixi, you go ahead and do your work. I'll tell you the contents of the letter in a bit."
At this point, Zhang Sumei regretted sending her children to school. If they were illiterate, wouldn't she be the one to make the decisions?
It's too late to regret it now; even Xi'er, who has the lowest level of education, has finished primary school.
Although Liu Shixi was somewhat dissatisfied, she didn't say anything and turned back to her work. Anyway, the letter was there, and she could read it later.
However, after reading the letter, she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that her son was indeed sensible and hadn't mentioned the matter in the letter.
Thinking this made her feel better, but she frowned again after seeing the address in the letter.
He glanced guiltily into the room, then thought for a moment and took the letter back to his room.
