Chapter 12: Chaos
Su's mother saw that her son and daughter-in-law were both eating vegetables: "Jiaojiao, don't worry, our family can afford to support you."
I will raise her well even if I have to sell everything I have.
"I know, but I just woke up, so it's better for my health to eat something light."
"Ah, then Ci, you should eat more meat. It's so hot today that it will go bad tomorrow."
"Mom, don't worry about your food. I'll take Jiaojiao to a restaurant for a good meal tomorrow. Your son has plenty of money."
The Su family still has great faith in Su Shuoci and will do whatever he says.
But ever since he was injured, he has been unwilling to talk, and all the family savings were used to hold the wedding banquet.
The last bit of money I had was used up in the past two days to pay for Jiaojiao's nutrient solution, and I have to wait ten days before I can get my salary.
Su's mother had originally planned to sell the ancestral gold bracelet, but now that her son said he was rich, she felt relieved.
So Su's father and the other two ate the meat with relish, with happy smiles on their faces.
Su Shuoci looked at their happy faces and his lips curled up, which was rare.
The Sheng family’s dinner was not so harmonious. No one ate with much appetite.
Sheng Shijing didn't leave after all because his mother had a fight with the aunt next door.
What happened was that Sheng Xinglian insisted on seeing her elder brother off, and on the way she heard the women talking about Gu Jiaojiao and became angry and fainted.
The eldest son of the Sheng family was really worried about Gu Jiaojiao, so he wanted to go to the Su family to see Gu Jiaojiao.
How could Sheng Xinglian allow her elder brother to support Gu Jiaojiao? So she cried and argued with those women, and finally had a fierce quarrel.
Miraculously, she was safe and sound, but their elegant and generous mother got into a fight with the aunt, and both of them were injured in the end.
So no one had to pay for the medical expenses, and everyone went home to eat their meals in disappointment.
No one dared to speak at the dinner table. The restaurant was completely silent. The family members sat on their chairs and ate in silence. The atmosphere was depressing.
If it were before today, Sheng Shiwu would definitely have been talking about Gu Jiaojiao's faults because he had a grudge against her.
At this time, he changed his opinion of Gu Jiaojiao. He knew that the whole family would be unhappy if Gu Jiaojiao was mentioned at home.
He also didn't know why their family had become like this.
Sheng Shijing was a little worried about Gu Jiaojiao. He was pissed off by the gossipy woman in the compound and didn't know if she had woken up yet.
Although she is not his biological sister, she has been raised in their family for many years. He has poured all his brotherly love into her and he cannot just give up on her.
Gu Jiaojiao is innocent. Her biggest mistake is that she spent eighteen happy years in the Sheng family.
But their own sister was suffering on the farm. If they continued to be nice to Gu Jiaojiao, it would be like stabbing his own sister in the heart.
Ever since his younger sister came home, he has tried not to be so nice to Gu Jiaojiao so as to avoid his younger sister thinking too much.
Sheng Shijing found it hard to accept that they suddenly became unkind to Gu Jiaojiao, let alone Jiaojiao, who was innocent and had been brought up in their care.
Jiaojiao was already in poor health due to congenital deficiencies caused by premature birth, and she couldn't stand their sudden neglect and often fell ill.
Even though they didn't want to hurt their sister's feelings, they couldn't just watch Jiaojiao suffer from illness.
As long as they show a little concern for Jiaojiao, Xingxing will get jealous and make trouble, and the two silly brothers will get more and more disgusted with Jiaojiao.
The family had been in chaos for more than half a year. He and his father really hoped that Jiaojiao's family would come and take her back soon, but no one was seen at the Gu family.
He and his father were not paying attention, and the two idiots at home got into a fight with their two younger sisters and caused such a big trouble.
His father could only helplessly ask the disabled Su Shuoci to marry Jiaojiao. It was normal for Jiaojiao to be unhappy and lose her temper.
Neither Su Shuoci nor any of them were wrong. If anyone was to blame, it was his own sister.
If she was a little more generous and didn't care about or target Jiaojiao, he and his father would love her more and would continue to love her and compensate her for the rest of their lives.
Then, no one would be as miserable as they are now. My younger sister has suffered a lot, but Gu Jiaojiao is also innocent.
They didn't say they wouldn't send Gu Jiaojiao away, they were just waiting for her family to come and claim her.
Sheng Shijing was so intolerant of his own sister that he glared at Sheng Xinglian with disgust as she was eating quietly.
This look was more piercing than a knife. Sheng Xinglian's grievance instantly doubled. She pouted her mouth and tears of sadness flowed down.
The elder brother in her previous life was so good to her, but now he is not only not good to her, but also so vicious! That bitch Gu Jiaojiao is just pretending to be pitiful. She fainted again, so she might as well die.
The Gu family will soon be broken up.
Sheng Xinglian's crying attracted the attention of the Sheng family. Mother Sheng asked anxiously, "Xingxing, what's wrong with you?"
I don’t know how the Gu family raised their daughter to be so timid and sensitive.
Not only did she raise the Gu family's premature daughter back to normal, she also gave her eighteen years of maternal love.
"Mom~ I'm fine, I just heard that my sister fainted from anger again... She's so pitiful~"

"Why should she be pitiful? Our Sheng family has taken good care of her for eighteen years."
"What's so pitiful about this ungrateful person? Were we not nice to her before?"
Mother Sheng and Mr. Sheng shouted at the same time.
Sheng Lao San: ...
He did not start the war this time, so he just focused on eating.
Unable to bear it any longer, Sheng's father threw his chopsticks on the table and said, "She has already married Su Shuoci. What else do you want?"
Although Father Sheng did not mention Sheng Xinglian by name, his knife-like eyes shot at her.
"Dad, how can you say that? How can my mother be unwilling? I know you can't bear to part with your sister, and we can't bear to part with her either."
"Xingxing, I really don't miss her. I'm just waiting for her family to take her back. How many times do I need Dad to tell me this?"
Sheng Xinglian was so angry that she couldn't help shaking. She had suffered so much injustice, but her father cleared it all with just a few words.
She only felt a burst of darkness in front of her eyes and her body swayed a few times. She shook her head in disbelief.
"Or, I'll go kill Jiaojiao to make you feel better!" Sheng Lao San muttered softly when he saw her pitiful look.
He has now come to his senses and realized that all this is caused by Xingxing's inability to tolerate Jiaojiao.
"Third brother, Jiaojiao is also one of you who dotes on Eighteen with all your heart, how can you be so sinister and vicious?"
Sheng Lao San: ...
Did my dear sister really not understand or did she do it on purpose? He had never thought about this question before.
Seeing her children like this, Mother Sheng didn't know who to blame, so she could only blame all the mistakes on Gu Jiaojiao.
"It's all because of that scourge Gu Jiaojiao. If it weren't for her, would our family be like this now?"
When Sheng Shijing looked at his biological mother and sister like this, he felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Jiaojiao is so considerate, sensible and well-behaved, but it turns out that she is not his biological sister. Just because she is not his biological sister, they ignore her.
This caused Jiaojiao, who was originally well-behaved and sensible, to become unreasonable, and her health deteriorated...
