Chapter 497: Daughter Reborn After Mother's Divorce (Part 12)
Seeing how well-behaved her younger daughter was, Cheng Rong looked around but couldn't find her older daughter, so she asked her younger daughter, "Where did your sister go?"
Li Ranran quickly handed the poured water to her mother and answered crisply, "She's cooking in the kitchen."
"Start a fire? Didn't we buy an induction cooker?" Cheng Rong's jaw almost dropped in surprise. Could it be that the induction cooker we just bought is broken? It can't be that fragile, can it?
"My older sister said that we're running out of money and need to conserve electricity. We'll be living in the city, and we'll have to spend money on everything, so every little bit we can save is a blessing." That's what my older sister said.
“Even if we’re trying to save money, we can’t skimp on electricity. Let your sister use an induction cooker; it’s convenient and clean. You don’t have any firewood to start a fire right now, so how are you going to cook it?” Cheng Rong didn’t remember having any firewood in the house.
Li Ranran quickly explained, "Yes, yes, my sister chopped up the unusable furniture into small pieces and piled them up."
This was something she and her older sister cleaned up yesterday when Mom wasn't home. It was probably some old, discarded wood that the previous owner had piled up in the small coal storage shed.
"If you think it's a waste of electricity, just burn coal. Coal is cheap, only about 15 cents a pound."
As soon as Li Weiwei entered the house, she heard her mother casually say this and couldn't help but interject, "If we're going to burn coal now, you'll have to buy a blower stove first, right? And the blower stove is too hot now, so we'll have to buy a honeycomb briquette stove. Didn't you say you didn't have any money?"
Cheng Rong recalled the words she had used to deceive her two daughters, and now she felt a little guilty.
It's not that she's really broke, it's just that she doesn't have that much money.
Thinking of how much money she had won the night before, Cheng Rong quickly called to her little girl.
"Ranran, go to my room quickly and get the money from the bedside table."
Then he looked at Weiwei and smiled, "Well, not really. I had a really good run of luck last night and won quite a bit. After breakfast, I'll go buy that stove and some coal. That will make cooking much easier for you guys."
As for Cheng Rong herself, she spends most of her time either at the mahjong table or hanging out with Yang Wenjie and the others, so she rarely eats at home.
In just one afternoon, the mother and her two daughters had managed to get everything they needed for the house!
Li Weiwei looked at the new items in her home with great joy and nodded happily.
When Li Weiwei heard her mother say she was going to buy household items, she was thinking of saving her mother some money. But then she remembered that her mother was always playing mahjong.
If I lose, all these things will be gone. But it's more reassuring to keep them at home since they're still there.
"By the way, Mom? Have you inquired about the school situation?"
Speaking of this, Cheng Rong felt a little uneasy; she had completely forgotten about what happened at school.
However, "I have a friend who lives in the county town. I asked him about it, and he said it can be resolved, so don't worry."
"The friend who brought you home yesterday?"
"Yes, his family is local, and someone in his family works in a government agency, so they should be able to solve it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed so readily."
After listening to her mother's words, Weiwei seemed to be thinking. "Do you and him have a good relationship? I saw that he brought you home last night and seemed to care about you a lot."
Li Weiwei had never met this person in her previous life, but she had heard that a man had been pursuing her mother for a long time. She didn't know if it was this person, but her mother didn't agree to date him for some reason.
Cheng Rong, unaware of Li Weiwei's thoughts, said nonchalantly, "Our relationship is not bad, but among these people, he is more enthusiastic and proactive, so I've gotten closer to him."
After listening, Li Weiwei nodded thoughtfully. Although her stepfather in her previous life was a decent person, his circumstances were really not good.
He used to have a stable job, which was fine, but then something happened and he suddenly lost his job.
Her stepfather lost his job first, then got divorced, and on top of that, he had two daughters with him. Li Weiwei couldn't help but think...
Does the fact that he and his mother have come together mean they're sticking together for mutual support?
If her mother in this life could find a partner with better conditions, Li Weiwei wouldn't object.
No matter how good her stepfather was to her and Ranran, Li Weiwei had already repaid him for everything she owed him in her past life, right? Li Weiwei paid for all of his daughters' tuition fees and wedding expenses.
If Cheng Rong can live a happy life in this life, Li Weiwei wouldn't mind being a "bad person," after all, everyone looks out for themselves.
If she becomes capable in the future, and Uncle Wang needs help, Li Weiwei will definitely lend a helping hand without hesitation.
Of course, if Cheng Rong and Uncle Wang are still destined to be together, Li Weiwei will let things take their course. At worst, she can work harder herself to help Cheng Rong lighten her burden.
……
Time flies, and before we knew it, Li Weiwei was already a sixth-grade student. And now, the start of the new school year is here again.
The experimental primary school that Li Weiwei is currently attending was only because Cheng Rong asked Yang Wenjie for help; otherwise, neither Li Weiwei nor her sister would have been able to get in.
In their previous lives, the two sisters attended different schools, and those schools were among the worst in the county. However, both Li Weiwei and Li Ranran had pretty good grades.
Later, he got into a good junior high school, and then, as if he had a cheat code, he smoothly got into university.
Because both of Cheng Rong's children were admitted to university, while Li Fanfan and Li Hengsheng, who followed Li Nangu, did not even graduate from junior high school and could not continue their studies.
This made Li Weiwei's stepmother feel extremely guilty. This stepmother wasn't the woman who had been with Li Nangu from the beginning; she was someone Li Nangu met after his divorce, and she was quite virtuous.
Because her two children were not as successful as Cheng Rong's two children, she always felt that she was inferior to Cheng Rong.
Although Li Nangu is playful, he is very shrewd and knows exactly what kind of wife he should look for.
Sure enough, the wife he later married was quite nice; she was also divorced and had a child from a previous marriage.
After his wife married him, his family bought a house in the county town and she gave birth to a big, healthy son.
It's a pity that Li Nangu's life is just exceptionally unlucky.
Li Nangu's second wife gave birth to their youngest son, who was only seven or eight years old. He fell from the stairwell of their newly purchased apartment, which was on the eighth floor. After falling, there was no hope of survival.
The couple was heartbroken because of their youngest son's situation, and Li Nangu aged several years overnight.
However, the couple later had another son, but this son had autism and bipolar disorder.
This really worried the couple a lot; they were heartbroken over their son!
After Li Nangu married his second wife and had children, he developed a rift with his two children from his first marriage.
She later gave birth to a younger son, and because of this son, she completely lost touch with Li Fanfan and Li Hengsheng.
