Rebirth: My Mother is a Virgin Mary

When we got home, Ms. Lin was sitting in front of the table with a big cake on it, looking very proud of herself.

The three foodies were about to start eating when Ms. Lin stopped them: “No eating!”

"Is it a farewell?" I looked around the cake. It was not very exquisite and it was not even made of animal cream.

Ms. Lin nodded. "She sent it with money, saying that she felt sorry for Shuangshuang. The weasel has no good intentions when paying New Year's greetings to the chicken. I dare not give it to you."

The cake is dotted with scattered fruits, and there seem to be unknown crystalline objects on the surface of the fruits.

Not frosting, and at the cost of this cake there wouldn’t be any frosting.

"Cheng Huan said he will come again tomorrow," Ms. Lin said, "and I will make up the remaining money then."

"Then let's keep this cake for him. We can't let him down, right?" I poked the transparent cake box. "Don't move it. Put it in the refrigerator. I'll treat him well tomorrow..." Then I smiled and said, "Mom, believe it or not, Cheng Huan won't bring a penny tomorrow."

Ms. Lin is very confident, "He definitely won't!"

Cheng Xinyuan understood the subtext between me and Ms. Lin, "Okay, I'll put this cake in the refrigerator intact. But sister... can you buy another cake? It's making me greedy~"

Qin Luotian and Yao Yuan also nodded in agreement.

"Sister, I want to eat strawberry cake." Lin Shuang rarely made a request.

Of course I have to satisfy my brothers and sisters' wishes, "Then I'll order takeout~"

It was a ten-inch cake, a full ten inches! Ms. Lin and I didn’t take many bites before the four of them ate the whole thing.

Ms. Lin smiled and said, "It seems that Shuangshuang is in a really good mood and has a good appetite."

I thought I wouldn't have to cook in the evening, as this big cake would be enough for them to eat. But after scraping off the last layer of cream, Yao Yuan licked his lips and said, "Sister, what are we going to eat in the evening?"

I:? ? ?

In the next three years of high school, I should be able to support them...

The next day, Lin Shuang and I stayed in bed until lunchtime. Ms. Lin made hand-rolled noodles, which were so delicious that I ate two bowls in a row. The last bit left in the pot was fought over by Cheng Xinyuan and me. Cheng Xinyuan and his friends were not full, so I cooked two more packets of snail noodles.

"You have to eat enough. We have to fight in the afternoon when people come." Cheng Xinyuan stretched out his hand to me, "Give me money, I want to buy some fried skewers."

Ms. Lin slapped him and said, "The money your sister gave you is not enough!"

"I saved it, I don't have any change!" Cheng Xinyuan started to act like a spoiled brat, "When I'm old and 70, you'll still ask my sister for money to buy snacks!"

I transferred a hundred yuan to him. Ms. Lin said helplessly: "Just spoil him."

Lin Shuang looked at them eating and thought, "Sister, if I eat as much as they do, can I grow as tall as them?"

I refuted seriously: "First of all, you can't eat so much; secondly, even if you can eat so much, you won't grow taller, you will only grow horizontally; finally, don't grow any taller, leave some dignity for me, your sister..."

When Cheng Huan came in, he saw a picture of our whole family enjoying themselves. It was impossible not to be jealous. Yao Yuan and Qin Luotian, who were not related by blood, were treated as our own children, but his legitimate relative had nothing good to offer.

"Oh~ Are you here to give money?" Cheng Xinyuan took out a toothpick to pick his teeth. Qin Luotian said nothing and went into the kitchen silently.

Cheng Huan showed up empty-handed and didn't look like he was going to pay back the money.

Ms. Lin smiled and asked him, "Have you eaten?"

Cheng Huan was flattered and didn't notice that there was a knife hidden in Ms. Lin's smile.

"Not yet." Cheng Huan was rarely shy and reserved.

"That's great, I left some food for you." Ms. Lin said with a fake smile. Qin Luotian came out of the kitchen carrying a cake at the right time, and Cheng Huan took a few steps back in fear.

"I brought this for you. How can I...eat it..."

"You gave it to us, so it belongs to us. We have the right to give it to others, and you are that someone else." Ms. Lin said leisurely, "Eat it. No matter what you come here to do today, you must eat this cake."

A relaxed yet unquestionable tone.
