Quick Wear: Don't Follow the Plot and Feel Good
Chapter 69 The Holy Mother Queen Mother
"Are there really saints in the world? Who would sacrifice everything for their family for others?" Zhang Xiaohua asked.
"Are you talking about your mother?" Sheng Jiang asked the eleven or twelve-year-old child in front of him.
"Yes. Others praised her, saying she was a very kind person. But I didn't feel any kindness from her at all. From childhood to adulthood, whenever a child snatched my toys, she would make me give them away, otherwise she would scold me for being ignorant, ungrateful, and having no manners.
She even gave away my favorite snacks and took my pocket money, saying it was to be donated to the disaster area..."
"Then this isn't a saint, this is a fake saint," Sheng Jiang said. "A saint would only do her best to help others. She would never kidnap others or sacrifice their interests to gain a good reputation for herself."
"Then I don't want to be her daughter."
"Okay, as you wish, wait a moment," said Sheng Jiang, and then disappeared.
"Xiaohua, you are the older sister, can you let this doll play with your younger sister?" Wei Shengmu said.
Ginger: "Why? This doll is a relic my father gave me. If she had told me nicely, I would have let her play with it. But why did she come up and snatch it away?"
Before the girl's mother could say anything, Wei Shengmu became furious, feeling that her authority as the queen mother was being challenged. "Xiaohua, why are you so ignorant? Tingting is still young, what's wrong with you giving in to her? Hurry and give her the baby!"
"I won't give it to you! This doll is the only toy my father gave me. Do you still want me to give it to someone else? Do you have any heart?" Sheng Jiang cried loudly.
The neighbors heard it and opened their windows to listen to the gossip.
Wei Shengmu was furious. "What nonsense are you talking about? Tingting is your sister, not a stranger. Give this to her, and I'll buy you a new one later."
"No! How many toys has Tingting taken from me? If you don't know, you would think she is your illegitimate daughter, and I was picked up.
Besides, you always said you would buy it for me, but when did you ever deliver? Didn't you say you didn't have the money? I haven't even asked you yet, where did all that money from my dad's compensation go?
Tingting, who was only four years old, knew that the word "illegitimate daughter" was offensive and burst into tears. Her mother also roared, "Wei Shengmu, is this the good daughter you taught her? She's so young and doesn't learn good things. She only learns how to curse! Humph! Tingting, go away! Don't play with her anymore!"
After saying that, he took Tingting and pretended to leave.
This made Wei Shengmu very anxious. "I'm sorry, Mom Tingting. Our Xiaohua is ignorant. I asked her to apologize to you! That toy is your compensation."
Tingting's mother put away the smugness in her eyes and pretended to be annoyed and said, "Don't do that. That's the legacy that Xiaohua's father left her. If you really give it to us, your daughter will hate us in the future."
"Then...then I'll buy Tingting a new toy that looks just like this one, okay?"
"No!" Sheng Jiang yelled, "Mom, you've never worked in all these years and haven't earned a penny. Dad gives you the money to manage the household expenses, and I have no control over how you spend it.
Now that he's gone, I have a share of his compensation. You can't spend this money on outsiders! Unless you divide the money into two parts. One for each of us. You can spend your share however you want, I don't care!
Wei Shengmu was about to explode, "What did you say? You want to break up with me? I'm your mother!"
"I don't want a mother like you anymore! How could there be a mother like you in this world? If you want to do good things, be a saint, be a virgin, and earn a good reputation, that's your own business. Please don't drag me along with you.
Besides, I know how my dad died! If you hadn't lied to him tearfully, saying that my second uncle was sick and needed a lot of money, my dad wouldn't have worked overtime day and night, and finally, when the coal mine collapsed, he wouldn't have been too exhausted to run away. So, what was the truth? Who did you give that money to? Wasn't it just that gambling addict you only knew for a few days?
You're a murderer! You killed my father just to be called a good person by a stranger. You even took the compensation and didn't even bother to give him a proper funeral, all because you said, "Save the money for those in need." Am I not someone in need? Am I not your biological daughter?
Look at the clothes I'm wearing. The arms and legs are so short. Look at the patches! It's winter, and what am I wearing? A sweater that's almost falling apart. Look at how much I weigh now? I'm five years old, did you know? Only 20 pounds. I'm just skinny!
Don't you know how to raise a child? Don't you know that children grow up quickly? Don't you know that winter is cold? You know everything. But you just won't show any concern for your loved ones.
You are always so kind, gentle, and gentle to outsiders, but what about your own family? You are always mean, sarcastic, and mocking.
Because relatives, whether it's me or dad, will not be like outsiders who hypocritically compliment you and flatter you every day in order to gain benefits from you.
You're such a hypocritical, face-conscious, and selfish person. You live for two words: "reputation"! And the reputation you've cultivated has been earned entirely at the expense of your own family!
So, I don’t want a saintly mother like you anymore! From now on, we’ll separate, you live your life, I live mine! Saintly mother! No, you’re the saint of saints, called the Saintly Queen Mother! "
Wei Shengmu looked at Sheng Jiang in disbelief, "You! You rebellious girl!"
Then something came to mind, "Huh! You want to cut off ties with me? No way! Your father is gone, and I'm the only one who's your guardian. Do you understand?"
"You don't want to give up custody because you're afraid I'll take a share of my dad's inheritance, right?" Jiang taunted.
"What nonsense? That money is for your future schooling."
"Really? But I'm already five years old and should have started kindergarten long ago, but you never let me go. Your excuse is always that you don't have money. Now my dad has been gone for more than half a year, and you still don't let me go to school?"
Ginger's loud voice caused everyone in the community to talk about it.
"I never thought that Wei Shengmu looked gentle and kind, but was actually so vicious in his heart."
"That's what I was saying. Although she's famous, everyone who mentions her always praises her. But looking at her face, she seems so mean."
"People in this world are truly all kinds of people. Some live for money, some for power, and some for fame. They can harm the interests of others for the sake of their own pursuits."
"The world is bustling with people, all for profit. The world is in turmoil, all for profit. Aren't fame and fortune what everyone pursues? It's just that people like her are rare."
Sheng Jiang was arguing with Wei Shengmu, and Tingting's mother saw no benefit in it, so she just gave a few words of advice and then slipped away.
At this time, Zhang Guowei came in, and Sheng Jiang's eyes lit up, "Second Uncle, I will be your daughter."
My second uncle had been injured while working. The doctor said he might never have children again. Grandpa Zhang and Grandma Zhang had initially advised him to keep his condition a secret and get married, just in case he could have children.
Zhang Guowei said, "I'm already in this state, so I'd better not bring trouble to other people's good girls. It's okay if I don't get married. Doesn't my eldest brother have children? There is no heir to the throne in our family, so let it be."
Zhang Guowei was indeed kind to Zhang Xiaohua. Seeing that she was hungry every day, he would often come over to give her things and buy her new clothes. He really treated her like his own daughter. Unfortunately, all those things were given away by Wei Shengmu to gain fame.
At this moment, Zhang Guowei learned the cause of his elder brother's death from Duoduo, and immediately ran to his elder brother's house. When he heard what Sheng Jiang said, he was so angry that he wanted to take Sheng Jiang away.
Wei Shengmu still refused to let go, so Zhang Guowei punched him.
"I'm telling you, Wei Shengmu, I've tolerated you for a long time! When my eldest brother was still alive, I didn't hit you because I was doing it for his sake and hoping you'd treat Xiaohua better. Now that my eldest brother is gone, you're still treating Xiaohua like this? She's your daughter, sure, but she's also the bloodline of my Zhang family!"
Before Wei Shengmu could say anything, she saw Sheng Jiang staring at her with eyes that made her hair stand on end. Then she couldn't help but say, "If that's the case, then you can take it away! Her father's compensation is 20 yuan in total. She can take half of it."
"Okay, since you agree, let's go through the formalities now! Move Xiaohua's household registration out."
The matter was settled smoothly. Sheng Jiang thought about it and took out the 10 yuan from Wei Shengmu.
Humph! Consider this money as my compensation.
Zhang Guowei quickly arranged for Jiang to go to kindergarten.
Ginger: ...I hate going to school!
[Duoduo, hurry up and get Zhang Xiaohua back. She has to go to school on her own.]
"Xiaohua, this is a pill. Do you want to cure your uncle's illness? Let him get married and have children like a normal person? If you want, give it to your uncle."
"think."
Not long after, Zhang Guowei went for a physical examination and found that his physical indicators seemed to be normal. This made him very happy, thinking that it was all good luck brought by Xiaohua and that it was better for her.
On Wei Shengmu's side, life was becoming increasingly difficult.
At the beginning, everyone knew that she had money, and people would lend her money whenever they had the chance.
"Xiao Mu, look, my daughter is going abroad soon, and she's short of a little money. Can you lend me some? It's not much, just 5 yuan will do."
"Xiao Wei, I know you're a good person. I'm renovating my house in my hometown, and I'm still short of money. Can you lend me some money for the emergency? Don't worry, I'll write you an IOU for 3 yuan. When I have the money, I'll definitely pay you back first."
"Sheng Mu, everyone knows that you have good character and are kind. My mother was sick and hospitalized this time, and it cost a lot of money. But you know our family, we can't raise that much money no matter how hard we try. We are still short of 2..."
Well, 10 yuan, the arrangement is clear.
If Wei Shengmu hesitated even a little, those people would start to be sarcastic, "Xiao Mu, look, this little money is nothing to you. Besides, it's not like we won't pay it back."
"That's right, Xiao Wei. We came to you because of your character. You won't let us down, right?"
"Sheng Mu, please lend it to us? My family can't wait any longer. I'm kneeling down for you, begging you!"
Wei Shengmu finally couldn't stand this moral kidnapping anymore, "Okay, wait a minute, I'll go to the bank to withdraw money"
The three men stood up quickly, afraid that the duck at their mouths would fly away, and said, "We will go to the bank with you. There are many robbers on the road these days. If there are more people, we will be safer."
"Right? Right, right."
When a few people arrived at the bank and checked their card, they were stunned: "Why is there not a penny on this card?"
I went to the bank to check, but couldn't find the reason.
The police were called but could not find the cause.
The three men's expressions suddenly changed. "Xiao Mu, you don't want to lend us money, so you probably took the money away in advance, right?"
"That's right. We don't have to lend you money. If you don't want to lend it to us, just say so. Are you kidding us?"
"What great benefactor? The Virgin Mary? The Virgin Queen Mother? I think they're all fake, right?"
Wei Shengmu kept explaining anxiously, but those people didn't listen at all. They left cursing at him. From then on, they said everywhere that Wei Shengmu was actually a fake saint.
Wei Shengmu's reputation plummeted.
And the people she had helped in the past, seeing that they could no longer gain benefits from her, stopped saying good things about her and started saying bad things about her instead.
No matter how Wei Shengmu explained to others that those people were slandering her, no one listened to her anymore.
Finally, she had no choice but to say, "If you slander me like this, I don't know what to say. I believe that the innocent will be cleared."
Or it could be "I have no way to defend myself."
Wei Shengmu had no money and no source of income, so she was still renting a house. The rent was due soon and she couldn't pay it.
When she approached people she had helped before, they either made excuses like they were not at home, or said, "Wei Shengmu, you have to be honest when you speak. I didn't ask you to borrow money back then. I just said I needed money, and you forced it into my hands. I said I couldn't pay it back, and you said you didn't have to pay it back. Now you're asking for money again. What kind of person are you? I don't have money, but I have my life. Take it!"
Finally, she was kicked out. With nowhere to go, she went to find Zhang Xiaohua. However, she only saw a cold expression on Zhang Xiaohua's face.
Zhang Xiaohua: I am no longer a delicate girl. I am Zhang Niuhulu Xiaohua, a man with plenty of strength and means!
"Go away! Where did you come from, beggar? How dare you come to my house!"
"Xiaohua, you! Don't you recognize me?" Wei Shengmu grabbed the broom Zhang Xiaohua threw at him, "You're rebelling!"
"Second Uncle! There's a lunatic in our family!" Zhang Xiaohua shouted at Zhang Guowei.
When Wei Shengmu saw Uncle Zhang running towards him angrily, he was so scared that he ran away.
Zhang Xiaohua: You run pretty fast! If I hadn't ruined my image as a good girl in front of my uncle, I'd have beaten you up!
At night, he secretly found the bridge hole where Wei Shengmu was staying, put a sack on her, and beat her up beyond recognition.
Being a homeless woman is dangerous. Wei Shengmu, unable to compete for territory or steal goods, went hungry, becoming emaciated. Finally, she was tricked into a remote mountain village by a sesame bun, and this marked the beginning of a new life for her.
I wonder if she feels a little regretful when she wakes up in the middle of the night and thinks of her once warm family?
But it didn't matter anymore. Zhang Xiaohua didn't care either. She just wanted Duoduo to take her soul away when she came back.
In this life, Second Uncle is in good health and has not chosen to get married. He lives with Xiaohua alone and is quite content.
