Chapter 440 440. Self-righteousness is good for others

The smile and movements on Tan Guifen's face paused at the same time.

The disappointed expression on Lou Xiaoke's face when he turned to leave at the school gate appeared in his mind unconsciously.

In fact, she didn't want to create a gap with Lou Xiaoke. She also wanted to keep Lou Xiaoke by her side to make up for the maternal love she had been absent from for 18 years.

But she has never lacked maternal love since she was a child. Her biological daughter has been raised as a little princess in the hands of the Lou family since she was a child.

Even though she was not the biological daughter of the Lou family, they still treated her as before, and even deigned to come to a small place like theirs to discuss with her whether Xiao Ke could continue to stay in the Lou family.

This is such a girl who has grown up from a small star to hold the moon and is above the clouds. How can a family like theirs, which barely survives by crawling in the mud, be worthy of her?

They couldn't provide her with a decent living, and they had to rely on her to live in Nancheng.

They were already holding back, not wanting to drag Lou Xiaoke from above the clouds into the mud.

Such a dazzling Xiao Ke should have the best of everything in the world just like Xiao Wen.

Tan Guifen took her hand back, hiding the loneliness in her eyes. She sighed slightly and said, "Xiaolong, some things cannot be done according to your ideas."

"I also really want to keep your sister in our home. It would be great for our family of four to live happily together."

Jiang Xiaolong still didn’t understand: “Then why don’t you accept your sister?”

"Obviously you were so kind to her before. As the daughter of the Lou family, she doesn't mind that we live in such a corner in the countryside, and she comes back to see us from time to time."

"Why were you so cold to her in school today?"

"Like... flattery."

When Jiang Xiaolong said these four words, his voice was very soft, for fear that these four words would hurt Tan Guifen's heart.

But Tan Guifen clearly knew what she said and the tone in which she said it to Lou Xiaoke at the school gate.

Although she might have pushed Lou Xiaoke away, she didn't regret doing so.

They and Xiaoke are not the same person.

Tan Guifen changed the topic and was unwilling to continue: "You should eat first. As a child, you should not interfere too much in some things."

"Your parents will do their best to pave the way for you."

Jiang Xiaolong looked at Tan Guifen steadily, touched his upper and lower lips slightly, and said, "I'm just not an adult, it's not that I don't understand everything."

"What you did during the day hurt my sister's heart."

"You think you're treating your sister well, but maybe it's another kind of harm to her."

“Sometimes being self-righteous and kind to others may seem like a burden and encumbrance in the eyes of others.”

"Mom, I know that as a junior, I am not qualified to educate my elders verbally, but there is something I really want to say to you."

"What you think is good may not be good for others." "Just like you pushed your sister away because you wanted her to integrate into the Lou family and continue to live her life as a master, but what does she really want? I never ask."

Jiang Xiaolong didn't want to say too much, for fear that he would be displeased by Jiang Zhichao if he said too much.

"Mom, think carefully about whether you and dad are right to treat your sister like this."

After Jiang Xiaolong said these words, he turned around, took the food, walked to the desk, sat down, and started to eat hungrily.

His words seemed to wake up Tan Guifen.

Her lips moved slightly.

Only then did she realize that she was not at the school gate now, and her daughter Lou Xiaoke was not in front of them at this time. She had no way to go forward and hug Lou Xiaoke.

Tan Guifen sighed helplessly, glanced at Jiang Xiaolong who was sitting at the desk eating with distressed eyes, quietly closed the door and exited the room.

After arriving in the living room, Tan Guifen saw Jiang Zhichao sitting on the sofa and smoking a cigarette.

Jiang Zhichao raised his head when he heard the movement. In the curling smoke, its outline seemed to be blurred, making it even more unreal for Tan Guifen, who was already short-sighted.

"How is it?" Jiang Zhichao asked her, "Is that brat willing to eat?"

Tan Guifen nodded, walked into the kitchen, took out an apple and started washing it: "I'm eating in the room now."

"Just finish eating."

He was still thinking that if this kid didn't want to eat, he might have to use force again tonight to make him eat obediently.

Tan Guifen peeled the washed apples, cut them into pieces, put them on a plate and took them out.

She put the plate on the coffee table, and Tan Guifen sat next to Jiang Zhichao. She hesitated many times.

Jiang Zhichao saw this, picked up a piece of apple and put it into Tan Guifen's mouth: "Just say what you want to say."

Jiang Xiaolong's room is at the back of the living room. What he said to Tan Guifen in the room just now was not deliberately lowered, so Jiang Zhichao, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, also heard some bits and pieces.

Tan Guifen chewed the apple in her mouth, but she felt it had no taste.

Tan Guifen swallowed the apple in her mouth and then said, "When we were at school today, our attitude toward Xiao Ke was too strange, wasn't it?"

Jiang Zhichao was silent for a while, then turned around and took a piece of apple and stuffed it into his mouth, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Let's talk about this later." Jiang Zhichao couldn't explain why.

Lou Xiaoke and they only met a year ago, but they don't have close contact with each other, and the only relationship is blood.

But no matter what their attitude towards Lou Xiaoke, they had only one ultimate goal, for her own good.
