Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

"Enjoying a life of luxury? I take care of two children all day long. I handle all the social obligations back home, the housework, laundry, and cooking. I do it all myself."

"When the child is sick, gets vaccinated, or is picked up from school, I'm the one who does all of that!"

"And you? You were too busy when Xiaoyu had a fever, you were too busy when Xiaoyou got vaccinated, and I was sick last week, getting an IV drip and still had to take care of two kids! Am I supposed to be enjoying myself?"

"What good fortune have I enjoyed?"

The heart-wrenching cries were like a sharp blade, shattering the peace maintained in the home.

"Do you think it's easy for me? Zhou Wanyi, ask yourself honestly, if I didn't earn any money, what would you eat and drink?"

“Your parents had an accident, and you gave them your money. Since you lost your job, I've been covering all the household expenses!”

"I leave early and come home late every day, working myself to the bone to create proposals and talk to clients. Do you know that I'm treated like a dog outside? Do you know that?"

"When I was drinking until I had stomach cramps, you were at home sleeping with the kids. I was under a lot of pressure, and I needed to release that pressure. What's wrong with going to a prostitute?"

The sound of a slap rang out.

"Si Yucheng, you are shameless! Was I the only one who decided to keep the child?"

You said you could raise two children, and if it weren't for Xiaoyou, my position wouldn't be lower than yours, I wouldn't do any worse work, and I wouldn't earn less money!

"What right do you have to say I can't make money? You're just taking advantage of the fact that I can't work right now!"

Si Yucheng's head was knocked to the side, the vase smashed directly onto the television, and he pointed at Zhou Wanyi, cursing angrily:

"It's a fact that you don't have a job. Everything in the family is earned by me. If you feel wronged, why are you with me?"

I'm just incapable. I don't have the ability to earn money and support two children. So why didn't you find a rich person in the first place?

Why did you want to get back together with me? You're living in my house, using my money, and even interfering in my life. Do I owe you anything?

Zhou Wanyi was so angry that she trembled all over, and swept the things off the cabinet next to her:

"Didn't you beg me to marry you? Si Yucheng, you were the one who knelt on the ground and begged me to marry you. Don't you have any responsibility for leaving behind two children?"

You want to start a family and build a career, but you can't handle the responsibility, so you blame me? All you want is a divorce, right? All you want is to avoid responsibility, right?

"If it's so hard, why don't you get a divorce? The child isn't just mine."

Si Yucheng was also furious: "Divorce, then divorce! Let's see how you live without income."

"Fine, Li, let's see if you can hire a free nanny!"

Little Si Youning didn't understand what they were saying, he only knew that his parents were arguing fiercely, and he was so frightened that he asked Si Ningyu in a tearful voice:

"Brother, do Mom and Dad not want us anymore?"

Si Ningyu held him in her arms, hiding the tears in her eyes, and whispered words of comfort:

"They won't abandon us."

He knew in his heart that his parents didn't like his younger brother very much, and he would do his best to protect him. He lowered his head and said to Si Youning:

"Your brother wants you, don't be afraid."

Si Ningyu gently covered one of Si Youning's ears with her hand and whispered:

"Brother will protect you, Youyou, don't be afraid."

When Si Ningyu uttered those familiar words to comfort the child again, Si Youning couldn't help but choke up:

“Brother, Youyou has grown up and can protect you.”

Si Ningyu felt that the argument outside was very loud, so she covered Si Youning's ears with both hands and whispered comforting words.

Si Youning's tears seemed endless, and no one argued with her.

Even though the arguing had stopped, my brother could still hear it.

With a pained expression, he reached out to wipe away Si Ningyu's tears. The wind and rain outside continued, but he dared not leave. He climbed onto the bed to stay with Si Ningyu.

It wasn't until late at night, when the rain subsided considerably, that the exhausted Si Ningyu slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Si Youning gently lifted the blanket a little to keep him from feeling stuffy, and then took out the ointment she had brought with her and gently applied it to the knuckles that he had injured at school.

Ever since Si Ningyu started self-harming, Si Youning has kept these ointments on hand, which can heal wounds and remove scars.

This is how Si Ningyu's wrist scars healed.

Previously, Si Ningyu wore long sleeves in the summer and didn't notice anything wrong at first, until Si Youning accidentally lifted his sleeve and saw the scab on his wrist that had been picked off.

He knew his brother was sick, so he arranged for a psychologist to come to his home to treat him.

But that doctor was no good; he almost caused Si Ningyu to be harmed.

Later, he consulted several psychologists, but it didn't help. It wasn't until Si Ningyu committed suicide by overdosing on medication that he rearranged his brother's room, took away all the metal sharp objects, and never let him use rubber bands again.

Gradually, we thought he was slowly getting better, and he continued taking his medication.

However, after another dose of medication, they almost failed to wake their brother. Several stomach pumping procedures caused significant damage to his body, so they dared not give Si Ningyu any more medication.

As the days went by, Si Ningyu's attitude towards him changed. She stopped calling him Youyou and even ignored him.

The way he called his father "uncle" changed directly. Si Youning didn't care how his father called him, he was just worried about his brother's health.

Now that he's remembered it again, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing. What if my brother remembers those bad things and can't think straight?

Si Youning didn't sleep a wink all night, but still left the room before Si Ningyu woke up.

After going downstairs, I talked to Si Yucheng and his wife about Si Ningyu, but they both remained silent.

Zhou Wanyi silently shed tears, while Si Yucheng looked guilty.

With the experience they've gained over the years, the two of them realize how terribly wrong they were in the past, and can only try their best to make amends.

They have plenty of money now, so naturally they want to give their two children the best.

Even so, it still couldn't cure Si Ningyu's illness, nor could it bring her youngest son closer to them.

Yes, all the warmth they had shown as a family before was fake. If it weren't for Si Ningyu's illness, they probably wouldn't have spoken to the two of them at all.

They are trying their best to pretend to be a loving family, and the couple's concern for Si Youning is all for Si Ningyu's illness.

Knowing that Si Ningyu cherished her younger brother, they pretended to love Si Youning very much.

Only the three of them knew that they only acted warmly in front of Si Ningyu. Once Si Ningyu went upstairs, the only sound on the dining table was the clinking of bowls and chopsticks. Where was the laughter and joy?

What they didn't know was that it was precisely because of these things that Si Ningyu found it increasingly difficult to survive.

Si Ningyu, who was crying in bed, had woken up before Si Youning left. Discomfort spread throughout her body, and she felt like she was suffocating.

But why isn't he dead yet?

Why is he still alive? Why is he dragging his brother down with him for life?

Covering her head with the blanket, Si Ningyu's tears fell even more fiercely.

These days, everyone in my family is putting on an act; they're all deceiving themselves.
