Chapter 9

The dream was shattered, Xia Xiaoli woke up suddenly, looked up at the little girl, this is her cousin Xia Yiqing, two years younger than her, ever since she came to her uncle's house, Xia Yiqing treated her like a foreigner Like an intruder, I am afraid that Xia Xiaoli will steal things from her, including care and attention.

Xia Xiaoli got off the bed, pulled her skirt uncomfortably, and obediently followed Xia Yiqing out. After all, she wasn't at her home, she couldn't be as casual as she was at home.

The aunt had already prepared the meals, came out with the pressure cooker in hand, and called the two children over for dinner.

Xia Yiqing jumped onto the chair immediately, picked up the spoon, and yelled with a look of starvation: "Wow, there are boiled eggs that I like. Mom, I love you so much."

Xia Xiaoli stood quietly by the side, looking at Xia Yiqing with envy that she didn't even notice. This kind of natural intimacy is not something she, an outsider, can integrate into.

In the past, she could be so casual and natural. Mom cooks the dishes that she and her father like every day. Although her cooking skills are not very good, she has been disgusted by her many times, but now thinking about it, she feels bitter. Blessed, if she can go back to that kind of life again, she will definitely not hate it anymore.

To be honest, my aunt Zhou Ru doesn't like to see her niece who came out of nowhere. Who wants to help someone raise a child for no reason, not to mention that this child has no blood relationship with her, especially she doesn't like Xia Xiaoli's appearance She looks like a wronged little daughter-in-law, she didn't give her food, or abused her, who is she showing her like this.

Xia Minghuang just came back from get off work, and saw that his wife had already set the table and chopsticks. He was in a good mood, and greeted Xiao Li cordially: "Xiao Li, sit down quickly and eat quickly. This will be your home from now on, so don't be restrained."

Xiao Li obediently sat down on the chair, picked up the chopsticks, and ate the food in small bites. She hadn’t eaten all day. She was really hungry. After all, she was a child. She wanted to eat when she was hungry. Playing hunger strikes and the like, and she has always had a belief in her heart, she firmly believes that her mother will never abandon her.

Zhou Ru took a bite of the egg, only to realize that she had only boiled three eggs. She said that she didn't do it on purpose, it was just a habit. There were four people in the family, and the youngest son was only two years old, and she ate it up early. , at the dining table, she always cooks for three people. She has been used to it for so many years. For Xia Xiaoli, an intruder from outside, she forgot for a while, isn't it quite normal.

And she took a big bite, what else can I do?
Xia Minghuang obviously noticed this problem too, and said with some displeasure: "Why did you cook three?" He knew that his wife was not happy when he brought Xiaoli home, but he couldn't do this in front of the children and let the children watch it. How sad, he really loves his niece.

"There are only three left in the kitchen." Zhou Ru just found a perfunctory excuse. Xia Minghuang usually doesn't take care of the affairs of the house. According to the usual, she can handle it with this answer, but Xia Minghuang's brain is twitching today.

Xia Minghuang put the last egg on the plate into Xia Xiaoli's bowl.

"Uncle, I don't need it, I'm not hungry." Xia Xiaoli refused in a low voice, for fear of causing trouble to others.

"It's okay, Xiaoli, you eat. Uncle doesn't like to eat this." Xia Minghuang smiled at her gently, with a consoling meaning. From the moment he took Xia Xiaoli's hand, he was determined to treat her as a Look at your own daughter.

"Then I'll eat it, I like this." Xia Yiqing said, and plunged her chopsticks into Xiaoli's bowl. She didn't think there was anything wrong. In the past, she was the only one who liked it, and her father would definitely give it to her immediately without saying a word.

Parents are often like this, reluctant to eat good things, reluctant to play fun things, wishing to give everything to their children.

But children can be pampered, not pampered, Xia Minghuang has always been taught this way, when he saw his daughter put his hand on Xia Xiaoli's bowl, he slapped Xia Yiqing's little hand off with a big slap.

Xia Yiqing suddenly screamed, it didn't hurt that much, it was just showing her grievance, this is her home, why did she eat one more, why should I give it to Xia Xiaoli.

Zhou Ru threw his chopsticks on the table angrily: "Xia Minghuang, why are you beating your daughter? What's wrong with you? Just say it, you don't need to vent your anger on your daughter. Once Xia Xiaoli comes, your daughter is not your own." ? I did it on purpose, I deliberately didn't cook her portion, what do you want?"

Xia Minghuang didn't intend to quarrel with Zhou Ru, but Zhou Ru was too domineering. Listening to what she said, Xia Minghuang was also a little angry: "Are you so fussy with the child? Xiaoli is me No matter how poor or destitute I am, Xia Minghuang, my niece is not someone else, I can't even afford an egg."

"You can do it, you have money, if you are a millionaire, even if you eat an egg, I will buy it even if she wants to eat abalone wing belly, but are you? You are a poor worker, you think you can raise a Children are easy, but if my mother’s family hadn’t paid for this house back then, it would have been a problem for you to support us, now you think you’re great, don’t you?” Zhou Ru flipped through old accounts.

"Okay, don't be bothered with me all the time, are you annoying?"

Xia Minghuang really annoyed her by saying this, yes, when he got married back then he didn't even have a house, brother Zhou Ru paid most of the money to buy it, but it's not like he didn't pay it back, he used the money for a few years It was paid back, and the interest was included. He doesn't like to take advantage of others, but every time he quarrels, Zhou Ru always uses this as an issue, as if without her elder brother, he is just a mess.

Seeing his impatient look, Zhou Ru immediately felt aggrieved, and threw the bowl in Xia Minghuang's face: "You think I'm annoying now, and you have a little money now, so you want to find a young and beautiful girl?" Is it the little girl of yours, Xia Minghuang, you don't have to be so ungrateful."

Although Xia Minghuang dodged, he was still rubbed, but this really made him angry, and his voice was raised several times: "Slut, it's unreasonable, don't eat." Picking up his coat, he kicked angrily. With a kick of the table, he slammed the door and walked out.

Zhou Ru also cried, she was used to being strong, and Xia Minghuang usually tolerated it, but today she actually blushed and got thick with her because of this crap, if she said something wrong, why not let her say it, she was also confused wronged.

The two children didn't dare to speak, so they ran back to the room obediently. As soon as they got back to the room, Xia Yiqing got angry at Xiaoli and pushed her with her hand: "It's all your fault, if it wasn't for you, my parents would have died." No quarrel, it's all about you, you are a villain, no wonder your mother doesn't want you, you are a villain, no one wants you."

Xia Xiaoli was quietly enduring Xia Yiqing's resentment, but when she heard Xia Yiqing talking about her mother, she couldn't help but retort: ​​"You are talking nonsense, my mother will not want me, she will come back to pick me up " What Xia Yiqing stepped on was her most feared vulnerability, so she resisted, deceiving herself, no matter how loudly she shouted, she felt uncertain in her heart.

"I'm not talking nonsense. My mother said that your mother is married and has a new family. She definitely doesn't want you. You are that... that oil bottle." Xia Yiqing recalled overhearing her yesterday It was very difficult for my mother to think of this word in the content of the chat with an aunt. Although she didn't quite understand the meaning of these three words, it would not be a good word after all.

"You talk nonsense, you talk nonsense, I'm not an oil bottle..." Xia Xiaoli cried out.

"If not, go find your mother, don't stay at our house, you go, you go." Xia Yiqing pushed Xia Xiaoli to the door.

Xia Xiaoli pushed Xia Yiqing away and ran outside. She was going to find her mother, she wanted to ask her why she didn't come and take her away, did she really want her?Why is everyone saying that?
