Blackening starts from the golden years

"Sister Fan, are you still going back to live with us tonight?"

Qiu Yingying asked. Guan Juer pinched her arm hard. Qiu Yingying cried out "Ouch". She looked up at Guan Juer and asked in confusion:
"Guan Guan, why are you pinching me?"

"Oh."

Guan Juer looked at Fan Shengmei's family in the back row and explained with a smile:
"My legs are a little numb."

"is it?"

Qiu Yingying said without any tact:

"Am I pressing you?"

As she spoke, she moved her body and changed her posture and smiled:
"I'll change my position. Is this better?"

"Ah."

Guan Juer nodded slightly with a bit of embarrassment and said "hmm".

Yuan Xudong took a look and saw Qiu Yingying lying in Guan Juer's arms. His eyes lit up. This posture was quite good. He could try it when he returned home in the evening. Let the two good sisters blossom together and fly together.

In the back row, Fan's mother looked at Fan Shengmei beside her and asked:

"Xiao Mei, the little girl just asked, where are you going to stay tonight?"

"I……"

Without waiting for Fan Shengmei to answer, Yuan Xudong interrupted with a smile:
"Oh, it's like this, Auntie. Today is my birthday. We were having a party. Yingying just wanted to ask Xiaomei if she wanted to go back to the hotel with us tonight."

"That's it."

Mother Fan smacked her lips and said:
"Why stay in a hotel if you don't have anything to do? It's just a waste of money."

"Yeah, it's a waste of money."

Yuan Xudong said with a smile. The car became quiet, Guan Juer gently covered Qiu Yingying's mouth with her right hand, staring at her with her beautiful eyes, signaling her not to speak anymore.

Not long after, the car drove into the Ode to Joy community. Yuan Xudong stopped the car by the roadside and said:
"arrive."

Everyone opened the car door and got out. Qiu Yingying quickly took a deep breath of fresh air. She looked at Guan Juer and said puzzledly:
"Oh my God, I'm almost suffocating. Guan Guan, what are you doing? Why do you always have to…"

Before Qiu Yingying could finish her words, Guan Juer quickly pulled her aside and whispered to her:

"You have no tact. Xudong didn't want Sister Fan's parents and her nephew to live at home, but you were still asking stupid questions. How embarrassed must Sister Fan have been just now? Do you understand now?"

"Yeah, I understand, but why?"

Looking at Guan Juer, Qiu Yingying asked in confusion:

"Why doesn't Xudong want Sister Fan's parents and her nephew to live in our house?"

"Maybe because I don't like them, I guess."

Looking at Qiu Yingying, Guan Juer whispered:

"Actually, I don't want them to live in our house. That kid is too naughty. Besides, Sister Fan's parents..."

At this point, Guan Juer suddenly stopped talking. She gently covered her mouth with her right hand, looked at Qiu Yingying and muttered:

"My dad told me not to gossip about other people, and I made the mistake again."

"It's okay, you talk, I love to listen."

Qiu Yingying gossiped and said that she loved listening to gossip, and Guan Juer just happened to like talking about other people's gossip. It was her nature, exactly the same as her mother, and her father couldn't control it.

"No, I can't say it anymore."

Guan Juer gently shook her head and said:
"If I continue talking, won't I really become a gossip?"

"Guan Guan, Xiao Qiu, what are you two doing there?"

Fan Shengmei shouted from not far behind:
"Let's go, come here quickly."

"I'm here, Sister Fan."

"immediately."

Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer trotted back, and together with Yuan Xudong, they sent Fan Shengmei and her family upstairs.

……

Along the way, Fan's mother kept scolding Fan Shengmei, and Fan Shengmei let her scold her expressionlessly without making a single statement in her defense.

"What a sin! Your brother and sister-in-law have nowhere to live, yet you live in such a high-end house. How much money do you waste every month?"

"Let me tell you, you can't be without a conscience. You said you're enjoying life in the big city while my family is suffering in our hometown. Has your conscience been taken away by stray dogs?"

"Xiao Mei, let me tell you..."

Mother Fan spoke harshly and Qiu Yingying beside her couldn't stand it anymore. She wanted to say something, but Guan Juer quickly covered her mouth with her hand. Although she also felt that what Mother Fan said was very harsh and unreasonable, she was Fan Shengmei's mother after all. Fan Shengmei, her daughter, didn't say anything, so what else could they say?

Walking behind, Qiu Yingying was a little angry, Yuan Xudong and Guan Juer also frowned slightly, and Mother Fan was still complaining:

"Why do you choose to live in such an expensive house instead of living in a free dormitory? What do you think?"

"With this money, you can leave it to your brother and sister-in-law, and improve their lives. Really, you just know how to waste money. Come on, how can you be so ignorant? I'm telling you, when the lease on this house expires, you should move into the dormitory of your company. Don't waste money. I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"

"Mom, I can't live in the company dormitory now."

As she spoke, Fan Shengmei took out the key from her bag and opened the door. She stretched out her hand and pushed the door open and said:

"Come in quickly."

"I'm dying. It's such a good house. It's a sin. Poor your brother and sister-in-law."

Mother Fan exclaimed in grief, and she pulled Lei Lei and Father Fan into the house.

At the door, looking at Fan Shengmei with a sad face, Yuan Xudong said:

"Guan Guan, Ying Ying and I will go back first. You stay with your parents."

"Ah."

Looking at Yuan Xudong, Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying, Fan Shengmei forced a smile and said:
"Be safe on the road, bye."

"Well, bye, good night."

"Sister Fan, bye."

"Bye, Sister Fan."

Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer waved and smiled at Fan Shengmei.

Looking at her, Yuan Xudong said:

"I just noticed that your father doesn't look very well, and he keeps coughing. If you have time, take him to the hospital for a checkup."

"okay."

Looking at Yuan Xudong, Fan Shengmei smiled and said:
"Thank you, you guys go back and have some rest."

"Okay, let's go. Good night."

"Good night."

After watching Yuan Xudong and Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying leave in the elevator, Fan Shengmei turned back into the room and closed the door.

Seeing her coming back, Mother Fan said:
"Xiao Mei, Lei Lei is hungry, hurry up and buy him something to eat, children can't stand being hungry."

"Got it. Xudong has already ordered takeout. Please wait a little longer. It should be here soon." After saying that, Fan Shengmei glanced into the room and asked:
"Where's my dad?"

"He's in the bathroom, leave him alone, just tell me what's going on."

Looking at Fan Shengmei in front of her, Fan's mother smiled and asked:
"The man who just drove us back, does he like you? Does he have feelings for you?"

"Mom, what are you talking about?"

Looking at her mother, Fan Shengmei said:
"He is my friend, and he already has a girlfriend, the girl with glasses just now. She and another girl are both my good friends. The three of us are besties."

After listening to Fan Shengmei, Fan's mother smacked her lips and said with a smile:
"You're still trying to deceive me. I can see at a glance that you like him. Tell me, am I right?"

"What's the use of me liking it?"

Looking at her mother, Fan Shengmei couldn't help but laugh miserably:

"With a family like me and no savings, which man would dare to marry me? I'm already thirty years old, and I still have to clean up the mess for my useless brother who only knows how to stir up trouble all day long. Why?"

"Xiao Mei, don't be like this. There's nothing we can do. We are a family. Your brother has no ability, so he can only rely on you. Xiao Mei, it's all mom's fault. You must help your brother, okay?"

Mother Fan cried bitterly and said that every time Fan Shengmei wanted to quit her job, she would cry and beg her, and it always worked. In the end, Fan Shengmei would compromise with her and clean up the mess for her loser brother.

"Mom, am I your biological daughter? Why can't you consider me even once?"

Fan Shengmei cried out in grievance:
"Have you ever thought about my future? I'm already thirty this year. I came out to work and earn money to buy a house for my brother. He married a wife, his wife gave birth to a child, his child fed milk powder, and went to school all with my money. I even asked someone to help him find a job, but he just knows how to make trouble all day long and never stays in a job for long. This has happened so many times, and every time I have to clean up his mess.

Now, even his son knows that when he grows up, he needs me to find him a job, buy him a car, and buy him a house. Is it so easy for me to make money? Or should I work like a slave for their family and work myself to death to make money for them to spend? "

"Xiao Mei, it's all your mom's fault. It's not your brother's fault. Please help him for the last time, okay?"

Looking at Fan Shengmei, Fan's mother wiped her tears and cried:

"It's all mom's fault. I've let you down. Your brother and your sister-in-law often told Lei Lei at home that when he grows up, he must make a lot of money to honor his aunt and take care of you in your old age."

As she spoke, she called Lei Lei, who was playing nearby, over and took his hand to teach him:
"Leilei, my dear grandson, tell your aunt what your parents told you at home. Did they tell you to make money and support your aunt when you grow up, and to take care of her in her old age?"

"Well, when I grow up, I will make a lot of money to honor my aunt and provide for her in her old age."

Lei Lei nodded and said, Mother Fan was very satisfied with his performance, and couldn't help but reach out and touch his head and praised:

"Leilei is so well behaved and sensible. He knows how to respect his aunt."

At this time, Lei Lei raised his head and looked at Fan Shengmei in front of him, and said arrogantly:

"My mother said that my aunt would buy me a house and a car, find me a job, and help me find a wife."

Hearing this, Fan Shengmei couldn't help laughing, but her smile was uglier than crying. She looked at Lei Lei and murmured as if talking to herself:

"No wonder everyone says that the best son is his own, what nephew? I think he is just like his loser father, both are ungrateful."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Lei Lei is the only child of the old Fan family. How can you curse your nephew like this?"

Mother Fan loves her grandson so much that she is afraid that he will melt if she holds him in her mouth, and afraid that he will fall if she holds him in her hands. Because of this, Lei Lei has developed many bad character traits at a young age. Coupled with his unreliable parents, he must have done something wrong in his previous life. Growing up in such a bad family, his future is probably half ruined. He will probably be like his good-for-nothing father, lazy and greedy, and only want to get rich.

Fan Shengmei's brother is a parasite at home and lives off his sister. Most of the responsibility lies with his parents. If the seedlings grow crookedly, the people who planted them cannot escape blame.

The child does not teach, the father too.

At this time, the bathroom door was opened from the inside, and Mr. Fan walked out of the bathroom while tying the belt on his pants. He coughed hard, and a mouthful of thick phlegm came out of his mouth. He was about to spit it directly on the ground. Fan Shengmei quickly spoke out to stop him. She immediately took two napkins and walked over. Mr. Fan spit a mouthful of thick phlegm on the napkins.

The napkin was still in Fan Shengmei's hand. She felt very disgusted and quickly wrapped it up and threw it into the trash can next to her. Then, she went to clean the bathroom and almost vomited because of nausea. Her father was very unhygienic and did whatever he wanted.

When Fan Shengmei cleaned the bathroom and returned to the living room, she saw her mother rummaging through her wallet. She took out all the money and bank cards inside, wrapped them in her own handkerchief, and put them in her coat pocket.

"Mom, what are you doing?"

Fan Shengmei said dissatisfiedly. Looking at her, Fan's mother said confidently:

"The money and bank card are all with me. If you need to spend money, come to me. Tell me the password of your bank card and I will go to the bank tomorrow to see how much money is in it and whether you have hidden any private money. Then I will transfer some money to your brother and sister-in-law. You live in such a nice house, but I pity your brother and sister-in-law. They may be starving and freezing there right now."

"mom!"

Fan Shengmei was about to collapse. She said directly:

"There's a bank card in there that's not mine. Please give it back to me. I'll return it to the owner tomorrow."

Naturally, Fan's mother didn't believe it. She thought Fan Shengmei must have hidden a lot of private money in the bank card she just mentioned. She didn't want to help her brother and sister-in-law. She was so heartless that her conscience was taken away by a dog.

"Who are you trying to fool? How could someone else's bank card be in your wallet?"

"I……"

……

On the other side, Yuan Xudong drove Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying home.

In the car, Qiu Yingying said indignantly:
"I've never seen a mother like this. Not only does she not protect her own daughter, but she also wants Sister Fan to live in the company dormitory. Why?"

"Me too."

Guan Juer said:

"If it were my mom, she would definitely tell me to eat better and live better outside, and come back to get more money if I don't have enough."

"Sister Fan is so pitiful."

"Ah."

After glancing at the chattering Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying through the rearview mirror, Yuan Xudong said:

"There must be something hateful about pitiful people. Your sister Fan is just too stupid, that's why she is like this, and she is being bullied by her family."

"What did you say?"

Looking at Yuan Xudong in front of her, Guan Juer said coquettishly with dissatisfaction:

"This is a typical victim-blaming theory. Why do pitiful people have to be hateful?"

"That's right, Guan Guan, I support you and Sister Fan."

Qiu Yingying said in a naive tone.

"Ah."

Guan Juer nodded, she and Qiu Yingying looked at each other, and then denounced Yuan Xudong together. He surrendered immediately and decided to teach them a lesson when he got back. They dared to go upstairs and tear down the roof after three days of not being beaten. How could this be tolerated?

……

After returning home, Yuan Xudong grabbed Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer in one hand each, held them in his arms and said with a smile:

"You still dare to talk back? Wait and see how I teach you two a lesson."

"Help, hehe, you big bad guy, please let us go."

Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer were playing and joking with Yuan Xudong when he carried them into the bedroom. Then he pushed them both onto the bed and pounced on them.

"Ah - help -"

"Hehe, it's so itchy, don't."

"Uh-huh……"

The bedroom became lively and full of spring atmosphere.
