Chapter 105: The Truth About Parents

I met her hateful and vicious gaze, and did not deny it, "Yes, I want you to live a hard life with him, but isn't this what you asked for yourself? I have given you the opportunity to let you leave him, and I have given it many times, but you yourself don't know how to cherish it, you don't have enough hearts to swallow elephants, you want Zhou Mingchuan to raise your daughter, and you want me to leave the house, will you be too greedy?"

"Greed is human nature, do you think you have no desires and no desires? Who can you show if you pretend to be high, no one here knows you except me!" Meng Shuwei dismissed.

She is right, greed is indeed human nature, I am not greedy for money, let Zhou Mingchuan go out of the house but can't swallow that breath, unwilling to see Meng Shuwei follow him to eat and drink spicy food.

But I'm greedy, I want to be with Jin Yebai, I don't want to see him marry Song Qingya and have children for the rest of his life, I'm not a good person, I also have a selfish heart, and I also have desires.

Meng Shuwei ate this meal for a long time, from half past six to eight in the evening, and ordered a bottle of high liquor, and I sat in front of her for an hour and a half, listening to her talk about the current situation of the Zhou family and the Shu family.

During this period, she asked me for money more than once, not for the living expenses that she said before that she would return to my parents, but for the so-called thank you gift, thank her for using Zhou Mingchuan's derailment to bring me a better life today.

Am I beautiful?

Which of her eyes saw that I was beautiful?

She's got in her eyes, right?

Now my husband has become a brother-in-law, my sister has become my ex-husband's second wife, the children are gone before they are formed, my parents are still alive but they are strangers, and my friends are leaving me one after another.

If this is also called a good life, then I must wish her to live such a beautiful life and let her indulge in this beautiful life to death.

At first, I would answer a few words from her, but then I only listened to her, and I didn't plan to inquire about the current situation of the two of them, but now that there is a free announcer, I will listen to it.

Meng Shuwei told me that Zhou Mingchuan did not resign because he did not have start-up capital, basically only took money and did not work in the company, and privately opened a company with a few friends, and she did not know how much money she paid.

I was secretly frightened, I had heard of working two or even three jobs before, but I had never met anyone who worked for others and opened their own company at the same time.

Zhou Mingchuan, God!

No wonder he doesn't go home all day, isn't it time to be full?

It seems that he is really short of money now, so he doesn't dare to quit that job, after all, new companies have always lost money before they can make money.

He is in his old business, and Meng Shuwei doesn't know what the business is, but he basically doesn't see his money, and he doesn't even know where his start-up capital comes from.

Although Zhou Lijuan and Zhao Dekai got a sum of money after divorcing, they still continued to work, and Zhao Xiaoyu was still taken by her mother and lived with them.

Because Zhou Mingchuan's rented house is too small, only two bedrooms and one living room, Zhou Lijuan sleeps on the sofa when he works the day shift, and he can sleep on the bed for a few hours when his father goes out to work during the day.

Zhou Yujiao now don't say it's imported milk powder, she doesn't even drink ordinary milk powder, Zhou Xiuzhen directly cooked rice cereal for her to make do, and the child who was just over half a year old drank rice cereal to get by, I can't imagine this life.

Meng Shuwei patted her ass and left after eating and drinking, I paid the bill and followed her out, watching her stop the car and leave, I didn't know whether to go home or go to the bar.

I didn't tell Li Sisi about Meng Shuwei asking me for a debt, so as not to worry her, so I could only bear it silently, thinking about Jin Yebai, hiding under the air conditioner and crying secretly.

He has been gone for more than two months, and I miss him more and more, but I can't even see him in my dreams, so I can only take out my high school diploma and look at him like a knife.

In the photo, he didn't have a smile on his face, sandwiched between a bunch of male classmates, looking at where I was standing, while I was smiling at the camera in front of me.

People are forgetful when they are old, but they don't forget lovesickness.

I am not old yet, and my heart has been tormented by lovesickness, and life is better than death.

At the end of the week, I deliberately found the largest bag, went to the bank in the morning to withdraw 200,000 yuan in cash, and then went to the address Meng Shuwei gave me that night.

I don't know how much my dad owes to others, and he was forced to sell the house, but he didn't ask me for the debt, which surprised me.

They have now moved outside the island, and the house they live in is relatively large, my mother has long since retired, and my father has no job now, so they are all at home.

I knocked on the door and then opened the door after my mother, she was stunned when she saw me, her eyes were wide open, it can be seen that it was only Meng Shuwei who asked me to pay back, and it had nothing to do with my parents.

"You...... Why are you here?" asked my mother.

"Who? Isn't that the loser girl back? Don't let her in, tell her to get out as much as possible. Daddy's rough voice came.

I was even more surprised than my mother, thinking who my dad was scolding? With his temper, who would dare to provoke him, wouldn't he be afraid of being locked in the house and strangled to death by his big hands?

Thinking that my dad almost strangled me to death that time, I even missed half a beat of my heartbeat, and the feeling of being close to suffocation was really painful, I never want to experience it again in my life!

My mother still looked at me in a daze, looking like she wanted to say something and stopped, and she didn't dare to say anything.

"I'm looking for you something. When I saw my mother again, my eyes were a little astringent, and I asked her strangely and politely, "May I go in?"

"Please come in. My mom hurriedly stepped out of the way.

I felt that the bag in my hand was so heavy that I could barely hold it, and it contained my living expenses for more than 20 years, which I had to pay them back, and then we would never have anything to do with each other again.

This is undoubtedly a very cruel thing, but I did it, how unfilial I am? But this is also forced by Meng Shuwei, for the sake of my peaceful life in the next few decades, I must also be ruthless.

Besides, even if I regress, my parents may not recognize me, otherwise they would not have turned a blind eye to me at Meng Shuwei's wedding last time, and it was that time that made me completely desperate for them.

What about being a little cabbage? Some things can't be chosen, I think of flesh and blood, but the other party doesn't need it, even if I put a hot face on their cold buttocks, I can't get anything back.

My dad was sitting on the couch in the living room watching TV, and when he saw me come in, those eyes shot at me, and there was no temperature at all, as if I was really just an outsider.

"What are you doing here?" said my dad, still in such a tough tone.

I walked up to him with a wry smile and took out the money one by one, and put it on the coffee table, "I once said that I would return 200,000 living expenses to you." ”

My father's expression was grim, and he said disdainfully: "Do you think that you can pay off the money in two? Don't forget that you were born by us, and you gave us this life, if you really have the ability, you can return it to us directly!"

It's not that I don't know that things like bloodline can't be written off with money, but there is no turning back when they did those things for Meng Shuwei to me.

Thinking that I can't take care of them in the future, I come to see them every once in a while like before, and it's good to leave some money for them, so as not to have nothing to rely on when I am old.

"I didn't want to settle the matter with you, it was your daughter who came to the door to ask for money. I took out all the money and looked at my dad with a blank face, "You count, I think she should be in a hurry to use the money." ”

My mother heard the words and had red circles under her eyes, people are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless, my own flesh and blood are like this, I feel uncomfortable, and she may not be happy, but my dad is like that, I really can't see any hope.

"She's in a hurry to use money every day!" my dad said angrily, "This loser, I've worked hard all my life, and I've been defeated by her, and I don't know what I've done all day." ”

It turns out that the losers I just mentioned were Meng Shuwei!

Listening to my father's tone, he was full of complaints, as if he was extremely dissatisfied with Meng Shuwei, could she spend a lot of money on him?

Seeing that he was angry, I didn't dare to ask him, so I had to ask my mother, who was standing aside and rubbing her hands. "What's wrong with Meng Shuwei? She asked you for money?"

I have a very bad premonition in my heart, the so-called I won't die if I don't die, Meng Shuwei is a complete ghost, it's not enough for her to make me a husband, do you want to ruin your parents' family?

My mother nodded with red eyes, "At the beginning, Zhou Mingchuan said that he wanted to open a company and asked us to borrow money, but your father refused at the time, and it was I who made her borrow 100,000 yuan, but then I mentioned it to Zhou Mingchuan, and he said that Xiaowei didn't give him the money at all, hey...... You say she's a woman, how can she spend so much money? ”

My dad roared angrily, "Don't say it, put down the money and leave, Lao Tzu has long since lost your daughter, and there is no such daughter, Lao Tzu will treat it as if he has never given birth to a child in his life, you all get out of here." ”

He has always been short-tempered, and when I didn't fall out with him, I could still play coquettish with him with a hippie smile and persuade him, but in our current relationship, he asked me to get out, and I had to get out, otherwise I would definitely be good-looking.

I looked at my mom, her tears were already rolling in her eyes, and I whispered to her, "Mom, I'm leaving, can you send it?"

My mother immediately understood, and was about to leave with her legs, and I hurriedly followed, but after only two steps, there was a pain in my back, followed by the sound of something falling on the ground.

My father's voice was furious, "You stop me, you dare to step out of this house, and you won't come back in the future! I have no daughter, what if I have one less wife!"

I looked back and saw a broken water glass on the floor, apparently the same one that had just been smashed on my back.

I asked my mother to go out, but I just wanted to ask Meng Shuwei what good things she had done, but the purpose was so obvious that my father could naturally guess that he wouldn't let my mother go out, and I couldn't help it.

"Then you stay, I'll go by myself, and I have to go back to buy vegetables and cook." I winked at my mom as I spoke, and walked out of the room quickly.

I didn't leave immediately after going downstairs, but waited downstairs, and I had already hinted very clearly, so that my mother would come down to see me while I was shopping for groceries, hoping that she would understand what I meant.

After waiting for about half an hour, my mother really came downstairs, but there was still my father behind her, could he even hear the sound of my words? Why is it so difficult to say a word to my own mother?

I hid and watched them leave in pairs, sighed helplessly, and then went straight back to my residence, thinking about my father's words, I couldn't help but have an impulse to call Meng Shuwei and ask her what good things she had done.

But impulse is the devil, I took a few deep breaths and forcibly suppressed this impulse, ate and went to take a nap, and went out for a walk in the afternoon, buying some daily necessities by the way.

When I was in the supermarket, Meng Shuwei called me and asked me when I would return the money to my parents, I told her that it had been paid back in the morning, and she immediately hung up the phone.

I immediately called her and asked, "Meng Shuwei, how much did you spend on your parents? Don't you know that they have no other income now except for their mother's retirement salary?"

"I want you to take care of it!" Meng Shuwei snorted disdainfully, "Now they are just my parents, and they have nothing to do with you sluts, so don't meddle with rats in this dog." ”

"Don't go too far, they're all too old, how can you do it?"

"Then I was still young and ignorant, lonely and helpless, didn't they also be able to do it? It was they who were unkind first, what happened to me who was unjust? Stay where you are cool!" With a snap, Meng Shuwei hung up the phone again.

Am I really managing too much?

My parents don't recognize me, but I'm still their daughter after all, and nothing can change that, after more than half a year, I have no hatred for them, but they can't let go.

The next morning, I took a car to the outside of the island, stayed downstairs where my parents lived, and waited for my mother to come down to buy groceries, I don't think my father would follow her today.

When it was past nine o'clock, I saw my mother coming downstairs alone, but because I was hiding aside, she didn't see me, so I hurriedly followed and shouted behind her, "Mom." ”

She looked back at me and was stunned, and asked anxiously, "Why are you here?"

"I have something I want to ask you. I slowly followed behind her, asking as I went, "What has happened in the past six months? Why has my father's attitude towards Meng Shuwei become like this? Wasn't it good before?"

My mother stood still, hesitantly took my hand, and her eyes immediately turned red, "Alas, Meng Lu, it's my mother who is sorry for you, and I blame me for being confused and deceived by Xiaowei's mouth." ”

The market was noisy and not a good place to talk, so I remember there was a teahouse on the road when I came, so I said to my mother, "Why don't we find a place to sit down, there seems to be a teahouse nearby." ”

My mom nodded in agreement, and I quietly withdrew my hand and took her to the teahouse to find a place to sit down and talk slowly.

I don't hate them for the past, but I definitely can't be as intimate with them as before, feelings are such a thing, I really can't afford to toss too much, once I am hurt, the wound will also leave a scar.

I poured her a cup of tea and asked her, "How are you doing?" I heard that Dad's company not only went out of business, but he also sold the house to pay off the debt. ”

As soon as I opened my mouth, my mother's eyes turned into rabbit eyes, and she reached out to wipe her tears and whispered: "What else, I am retired, your father's company has also closed down, and now I live on my little retirement salary." ”

"Dad's company is not big, even if you lose money, how much can you lose? Didn't you sell the house? And you have always been diligent and thrifty, and you must have savings at home, I remember you said at that time that you wanted to buy a house for Meng Shuwei. "The front is what I guessed, and the back was overheard at the time.

"The previous house was sold, didn't you buy another house? Most of the rest of the money was used by your father to pay off the debt. "My mother's voice is lower.

It turned out that this house was not rented, but newly bought, but the housing prices outside the island are much worse than those on the island, and there is still some money left after buying a house.

My mother continued with red eyes: "It wouldn't be a big deal if he owed only the company's little deficit, but he actually went to gamble, borrowed from other people's loan sharks, and was forced to repay the money, so he was almost put on his neck with a knife." ”

"What? My dad still gambles?" I widened my eyes in surprise, "when did this happen?"

My mother let out a long sigh, "When you divorced Zhou Mingchuan, I didn't know at the time, and I thought it was strange that Xiaowei had not been by his side since she was a child, and he had never been very intimate, so why did she suddenly help her." ”

She took a sip of tea and said, "Later, I found out that Xiaowei already knew that she owed a loan shark, so she instigated your father to treat you like that, just to get some money from Zhou Mingchuan." ”

People die for money, birds die for food, I didn't expect the truth to be like this, my dad is not guaranteed to be late, gambling is really harmful, no wonder the country wants to crack down.

Speaking of which, my dad seems to really like to play cards and mahjong, and he used to be away from home every Chinese New Year, and even when he went to his grandmother's house in the countryside, he could find someone to build the Great Wall, play poker, and indulge in one of them.

But he was just a little trouble at that time, and if he lost a few hundred dollars, he would be upset by my mother, so he didn't dare to play too big, and this time he actually went to borrow a loan shark!

I don't need my mother to say what happened later, a lawsuit, Zhou Mingchuan's money went into my pocket, I invested in Jin Yebai's company instead, my father ended up with no personal wealth, the money was not earned, and even my daughter turned her face.
