Chapter 203 Mom, You Are Too Partial
Chapter 203 Mom, You Are Too Partial
When Lin Xiaodou and others arrived at the Kerr tribe, it was the busiest time.
A few people presented small gifts and congratulations, and then sat down on one side of the campfire.
As soon as he sat down, Lin Xiaodou felt two pairs of intensely resentful gazes.
One of them came from Miss Mingzhu who was sitting in the upper seat.
Lin Xiaodou sneered. He would be even more angry later, and he hoped that this young lady could bear it.
And the other one...
Lin Xiaodou followed the line of sight and looked across, where she made eye contact with the elegantly dressed lady.
It’s Chen Ju, Xiao Jingyao’s mother.
This old woman's desire for control is so strong that she even chased her son all the way to the prairie.
Xiao Jingyao is really miserable to have a mother like this.
"Son, why is Lin Xiaodou here? Don't you think you should explain it to me?"
Chen Ju said this with gritted teeth, her face full of resentment.
She wondered why he came to the prairie for no reason, and it turned out that it was the vixen Lin Xiaodou who was there.
Needless to say, she must have seduced him!
"It's up to Comrade Lin to choose where she wants to be. I don't need to explain it to you."
Xiao Jingyao's face couldn't be any darker.
The scars on my mother's face from being whipped by Mingzhu a few days ago have not yet healed completely.
So she requested again and again, and Xiao Jingyao finally agreed to let her heal the wound on her face before returning to Beijing.
This time when the leader of the Kor tribe celebrated his birthday, Xiao Jingyao didn't even want his mother to come.
But he didn't expect that she was hiding in the back of the car, and he didn't find her until he got out of the car.
"Mom, you keep challenging my bottom line. I am so disappointed in you. You must take the train back to Beijing tomorrow morning!"
Chen Ju's eyes widened: "You actually want to drive me away for an outsider?"
This was the second time her son asked her to return to Beijing.
The reason why she kept delaying and didn't want to go back was because she wanted to see why her son stayed here.
This time the tribal leader was celebrating his birthday, and she secretly followed him here, also wanting to see if there would be anything to be gained from the event.
But unexpectedly I met Lin Xiaodou.
When they were in your province before, my son made it clear that they were just friends.
But looking at his son's anxious look now, it is obvious that he cares a lot about that dead girl.
Chen Ju took a deep breath and said, "Tell mom if you are dating her?"
"No." Xiao Jingyao's words made Chen Ju feel relieved, but his next sentence almost made her angry to death:
"I would like to date someone, but they may not be interested in me."
Chen Ju: "....What are you talking about? How dare she despise you? Who the hell does she think she is!"
Although she felt sad about her son's behavior, he was still her son that she was proud of.
Hearing that he was actually despised by that damn girl Lin Xiaodou, Chen Ju was really furious.
"Can you be more ambitious? You gave up your bright future and ran to the border for a shameless girl. What on earth are you thinking?"
"This is my own decision. Don't blame others." Xiao Jingyao looked solemnly:
"In addition, as an armed police officer, it doesn't matter where I work, as it's all for the people, and it's all worth it."
"I think you are possessed by a ghost!" Chen Ju snorted coldly:
"I can't control you, but I'm your mother!
If this woman Lin Xiaodou wants to enter my Xiao family, I will kill her!"
This damn girl has caused so much trouble before she even entered the house. If she does enter the house, she will cause unrest to the whole family.
She would never allow such a thing to happen!
Xiao Jingyao was also annoyed: "Mom, if you force me like this, then I won't go back in the future, and you can just treat me as if you don't have a son!"
After he finished speaking, he stood up and left.
"You!...You unfilial son, you really want to piss me off to death!"
Chen Ju's teeth were chattering and she looked at Lin Xiaodou with even more anger.
The damn girl is such a vixen, causing the discord between mother and son.
......
Xiao Jingyao went to a nearby place to get some fresh air.
The sun was setting at this time, and the whole prairie was shrouded in orange.
Looking at the horses running around happily not far away, envy rose in his eyes.
If possible, I would rather not be a human in my next life, but a carefree and free horse.
Xiao Jingyao has never been a sentimental person.
But what his mother said today really made him feel very uncomfortable.
As an armed police officer, it is my duty to be loyal to the country and filial to my parents.
But it seems he is going to break his oath.
He couldn't obey his mother and give up the person he loved.
He didn't even confess his feelings, how could I give up halfway!
"What are you thinking about?" At this moment, a clear voice sounded beside him.
It was Zhou Qinglang. He didn’t even realize that he had been behind him!
Xiao Jingyao frowned: "Did you hear what I said to my mother just now?"
Otherwise he wouldn't have followed him.
Zhou Qinglang was sitting not far from him, so if his hearing was better he would be able to hear it.
"Yeah." Zhou Qinglang admitted directly: "I didn't eavesdrop on you on purpose, it's just that your voices were a little too loud."
Zhou Qinglang rarely admires people, and Xiao Jingyao is one of them.
But I didn't expect that such an outstanding person like Xiao Jingyao would have such a unreasonable mother.
Before, he was a little worried that Xiao Jingyao would snatch Lin Xiaodou away, but now that is not the case.
With Lin Xiaodou's violent temper, he absolutely can't stand someone like Chen Ju.
So it is definitely impossible for Lin Xiaodou and Xiao Jingyao to be together.
But he is different. Both his parents have passed away and his family is wealthy, so he has no burden.
My only relative, my aunt, is a very sensible person.
He had previously said that he didn't want to get married and wanted to devote his life to scientific research. His aunt didn't say anything and was very supportive of him.
In a couple of days, my aunt will bring my cousin to the prairie to see him.
Then he can introduce her to Lin Xiaodou.
My aunt has a very bad temper and speaks quickly, and few people dare to provoke her.
Her personality is somewhat similar to Lin Xiaodou's, and when they meet, they will probably have a pleasant chat.
With his aunt's help, maybe he could get together with Lin Xiaodou sooner.
Zhou Qinglang has also decided that he will confess his feelings after the bonfire party is over tonight!
......
Compared to Zhou Qinglang's expectant expression, Xiao Jingyao looked much more lonely.
He is a little hesitant now, wondering whether he should confess his feelings to Lin Xiaodou.
If it succeeds, but my mother doesn't agree in the end, it would be a waste of time.
But if you don't express it, you will regret it.
After thinking about it, Xiao Jingyao decided to speak out what was in his heart.
If the situation really came to a head with his mother, then he would just not go home and work outside all year round.
......
Lin Xiaodou, whom Zhou Qinglang and Xiao Jingyao are both thinking about, is doing something important at this moment.
She left her seat, using the excuse of going to the bathroom.
This was the most lively time of the bonfire party, and many servants were busy in the kitchen. Even the grandma who was guarding the gate was not surprised.
When Lin Xiaodou found her, she was cutting vegetables with her head down.
Lin Xiaodou hid in a corner not far away and flicked his finger.
A small piece of paper in my hand bounced onto the wooden board where grandma was cutting vegetables.
A note suddenly appeared and grandma was a little confused.
But when she opened it out of curiosity and saw what was inside, her head buzzed.
It clearly reads:
[I already know that you exchanged your daughter with the leader's daughter. If you don't take the initiative to admit to everyone tonight what you did back then, then I will make sure Mingzhu is killed without a burial place!]
"No...who is it...who is it! You are not allowed to hurt my child!"
Grandma held the note tightly, her face suddenly turned ferocious, and she looked for someone frantically everywhere.
As soon as Lin Xiaodou flicked out the note, he jumped onto the beam.
She lay quietly above and watched all this, with a sarcastic smile on her lips.
Sure enough, her guess was correct. Grandma was the biological mother of the fake daughter Mingzhu.
Haha, just because we are not allowed to hurt her child, does that mean she can hurt other people’s children without restraint?
Thinking of Huanhuan recalling the tragic experiences of her childhood, Lin Xiaodou looked at her grandma as if she were a dead person.
This woman is so selfish and cruel.
He let his daughter live a good life in the master's house, but abandoned the master's own child in the mountains to feed the wolves.
Don't say that she has maternal love. Such a person who is worse than a beast deserves no pity to die.
Lin Xiaodou did this on purpose.
She really wanted to see what decision Chief Boggart and Lady Rita would make in public.
If it is true as stated in the original book's introduction, they do not care about Mingzhu's identity as a fake daughter and still love her as before.
Then she would take Huanhuan away on the spot, even if such crappy parents refused to recognize her.
If there is something else going on, let Huanhuan make her own decision.
As mentioned before, Huanhuan is a girl with a very strong opinion and a stubborn personality.
Although she is only 16 years old, she is very independent because she has lived in the mountains for many years.
But she is much more rational and sensible than the arrogant Miss Mingzhu.
The grandma downstairs was still frantically looking for someone.
The other servants looked at each other, not knowing what she was going crazy about.
Someone went to find Su Ya who was busy in the front and asked her to come over quickly.
When Su Ya hurried over, she saw her grandma squatting on the ground crying with her face covered.
Su Ya was a little anxious: "Mom, what's wrong, what happened?"
Although her mother was usually a little partial, she was still very good to her.
Seeing her like this, Suya was also worried.
Someone nearby said, "Grandma just said something about not hurting her child. Did she think of something bad? Suya, please try to persuade her."
Hearing this, Su Ya felt a little touched.
I didn't expect that grandma was still thinking about her while she was working.
Su Ya walked forward, squatted down, hugged her mother, and said in a soothing voice:
"Mom, don't cry. I'm fine here. Don't worry."
"No...it's not you..." Grandma's face was covered with tears and she shook her head in pain.
"What do you mean?" Su Ya was completely confused.
Grandma lowered her head and wiped away her tears.
He raised his head, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "Come with me."
After saying this, she stood up and walked towards the small house nearby.
Although Su Ya was a little surprised, she still followed.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaodou jumped down from the beam and followed secretly.
......
"Mom, why did you bring me here?"
Su Ya looked around.
This place is in the most remote place and usually few people come here.
"Yaya, I'm going to tell you something next. I hope you won't get too excited after hearing it, and don't blame your mother."
Grandma said in a hoarse voice, somewhat guilty.
Su Ya became more and more curious: "What is it? Tell me!"
Grandma glanced at her, gritted her teeth, and said with determination:
"In fact, Miss Mingzhu is your biological sister. She was too weak when she was born, and the doctor said she would not live for more than a few days.
It happened that Mrs. Rita gave birth the next day, and when I went to serve her, I took the opportunity to switch the two children...”
"Wait!" Su Ya's face changed drastically and she interrupted her:
"Mom, what do you mean by that? What do you mean Miss Mingzhu is my sister?
If she is my sister, then the sister who was lost when I was 8 years old must be Mrs. Rita's biological daughter!"
"Yes, that's right." Grandma's eyes flickered twice guiltily.
Su Ya looked incredulous and shook her body twice:
"So you and your father often beat and scolded her because you knew she was not your biological daughter, and later deliberately let her get lost?"
"Your father didn't know about this. He was too anxious to have a son. When he saw that I gave birth to another daughter, he treated her so badly.
As for her getting lost, I really didn't know about it. I also owe this child something, and I didn't want this to happen."
Grandma said the most insincere words with an innocent expression on her face.
Anyway, the girl disappeared for 10 years and she must have died outside a long time ago.
No one can tell whether she got lost on her own or was abandoned by her.
"Mom, why? Why are you doing this? The chief and Lady Rita have been so kind to us!"
Suya collapsed. She never expected that her mother, who was always kind and gentle, would do such a thing.
Grandma wiped her tears and said, "I didn't want to do that either. Our family was so poor at that time that we couldn't save your sister.
Your father is an alcoholic and doesn't care about me, so I can only do this against my conscience."
If that were not the case, why would she have told her eldest daughter the truth?
She is the only one who can help her now.
"You told me all this for what? You've been through all these years, why are you telling me now..."
Su Ya glared at her with red eyes.
No wonder the mother has favored Mingzhu since she was a child. There are traces of this.
Saying this now, something must have happened.
As expected, grandma handed her a note and said:
"Just now I suddenly received a note..."
After reading the contents of the paper, Su Ya sneered and said, "That's good. Just admit it. It was your fault in the first place."
Grandma's face was gloomy: "I know it's my fault, but Mingzhu is innocent!
When I confess, the chief and Lady Rita may not tolerate her, so I hope you can take care of your sister."
"I take care of it?" Su Ya seemed to have heard a huge joke, and asked sarcastically: "What about you, where did you go?"
Grandma looked at her guiltily and said with a determined look:
"I plan to commit suicide on the spot after telling the truth. Maybe because of my death, the leader and his men won't blame Mingzhu."
"Haha! Haha! Mom, you are so biased! This is so funny!"
Su Ya was so angry at her words that she trembled all over and couldn't stop laughing crazily...
