Chapter 7: The Dancing Girl of Paramount (6)

In the past two months, the three members of the Li family have lived a very miserable life. Every time Li's mother begged for money from July, she had to work hard, low for three or four, and serve for half a day, and only in July did she be satisfied with a little living expenses to ensure that the three of them would not starve to death.

Li's mother originally saved the money in her hand to pay for Li Yufeng's transfer as errands, but the school was completed, and Li Yufeng could go to school as long as she paid the money, but she didn't give her the 100 yuan she said in July. Mother Li quarreled with July, and she didn't even give her living expenses in July, no matter if she cried, made trouble, or rolled around, July didn't give her a penny. In the end, Li Yue'er gave Li's mother an idea and asked her to find a neighbor to persuade Qiyue to be filial. There is really that nosy person to come, first said that Mother Li is not easy, and children must be filial, and when she saw that Qiyue ignored her, she jumped up and scolded Qiyue for being a pig and dog, and was beaten out by a broom in July.

In July of the same day, she went to the newspaper office to make a name for herself, and severed her relationship with Li's mother, Li Yufeng, and Li Yueer, and these three people had nothing to do with her in the future.

Mother Li didn't expect her eldest daughter to do so much, and she couldn't help but regret it, but if a person is out of the way, there is really no way to take him, and Mother Li can only be careful to please him.

Li Yufeng and Li Yue'er said very backbone at the beginning that they asked Li's mother not to want the money in July, but after only one week, they knew how difficult life was.

Mother Li didn't care about asking for money in July, but the family only had a few cents, so she could only find a job to paste paper boxes. But she has been pampered for many years, where can she endure this hardship, and after a week, the money she earns is only enough to eat some vegetable leaves. Li Yufeng and Li Yue'er just ate vegetable leaves at home, but in the past they had a good life at school, but now they feel that they can't hold their heads up at school.

Li Min'er really raised them too comfortably, they didn't suffer when Li's father didn't die, and after Li's father died, because Li Min'er still didn't suffer, so they felt that this sister was a shame, and whenever others asked about the family, they would automatically avoid having a sister, so that their classmates thought that the Li family only had two children.

Now, the school has to pay for the books, and they don't have the money to pay. When school classmates go out to play or have birthdays, they don't dare to go, this kind of embarrassing day makes Li Yufeng and Li Yueer, who have always lived like the eldest young master and eldest lady, miserable.

As soon as Feng Qi entered the yard, he saw that Li's mother was sitting on a stool in the yard and napping, and the night was very cold, so Li's mother could only wear a bed quilt on her body. In the past, Mother Li was waiting for her in July's room, but on the second day of July, she went to ask the locksmith to install a lock for her, and Mother Li didn't break it at all. Mother Li secretly rummaged through July's room before, trying to steal some money, but July had already deposited all the money in the bank, and the passbook was with her, and Mother Li found nothing.

"Min'er is back?" Mother Li woke up when she heard the sound of the courtyard door, and came over with a smile on her face.

July snorted, didn't look at her, and went straight into his house.

"Min'er, are you tired from work, have you eaten?" Mother Li followed into the room and asked with a shy smile.

"That's it!" July said coldly as she took off her shoes, "Is there anything wrong?"

"That Min'er, Xiaofeng's school has been run, he studies well, he must have a big chance to go, your Aunt Xu is also very hard, I have spent the forty yuan I have saved, if Xiaofeng does not go to it, this money will be spent in vain." Mother Li pleaded in a low voice, her voice was very pitiful, if she didn't know what happened to Li Min'er, July might have sympathized, but now, July hooked the corners of her lips and smiled.

"I can give you money," she said, pausing.

Mother Li's face was overjoyed.

"However, I can only give you fifty dollars. July smiled and leaned on the quilt on the bed and looked at Mother Li and said.

"Fifty is not enough! Min'er! Mom beg, for the sake of your brother, you have to think of a way!" Mother Li's tears flowed, and she knelt down.

July raised her eyebrows, if it was really Li Min'er, maybe this trick would have been successful, when the mother knelt down for her daughter, there were a few who could not agree to her request. However, July just looked at her, didn't speak, and didn't even help. At that time, when she kicked Li Min'er out, Li Min'er still had a high fever, and Li Min'er took all guests in order to make money for the family, and finally got flower willow disease, and Li's mother didn't even allow her to see the doctor in order to save money. Li Min'er was kneeling on the ground and crying and begging her not to drive her away, but Li Yue'er said that Li Yufeng was going to get married, in case the woman knew that there was such a sister, Li Yufeng would not be able to raise her head in front of her daughter-in-law, so Li's mother ruthlessly threw Li Min'er out.

Mother Li really didn't expect that she was already out of the way, thinking that this would make Li Min'er soft-hearted, but the other party just watched, and even took out a melon seed from the small bag to look at it. This made Mother Li suddenly not know how to continue.

After a long time, Mother Li could only stand up trembling by herself.

"Come on, don't act here, it's useless to me. I'll give you fifty, don't you still have a daughter? Let her earn you another fifty, won't it be a hundred! This is also fair, don't just point to a daughter to live!" As he spoke, July threw the melon seed skin in his hand towards Li's mother's face, looking at her embarrassed appearance, July giggled.

Mother Li clenched her hands tightly, and her nails were pinched into the flesh. Originally, she was reluctant to let Li Yue'er go, but this kind of humiliation in July made her realize that this eldest daughter couldn't be counted on, and the days that had passed during this time made her understand that if Li Min'er completely cut off their money, the whole family would drink the northwest wind.

The house must not be sold, it is reserved for her son. The daughters are all from other people's families, and it is useless to wait for them to get married, and what does a woman rely on, isn't it her son who she relies on? It is not impossible to give up another daughter for the sake of her son.

"However, Xiaofeng's tuition will be in a few days, even if Yue'er goes to dance, she won't be able to earn it back in the next few days. After a while, Mother Li raised her head with red eyes and said to July.

The corners of July's mouth curled up sarcastically, Li Min'er's previous life, Li Yue'er's mother loved Li Yue'er and was reluctant to let her suffer a little grievance, eat well, use it well, in order to let Li Yue'er live this kind of life, Li Min'er simply didn't treat herself as a person, and the child alone beat three times, and went to pick up customers on the third day of the abortion. It turns out that this kind of love also has a prerequisite, that is, it is not Mother Li herself who is dedicated.

"Didn't you say that Jiaojiao made a lot of money! She can learn from Jiaojiao in the backstreet! I can help find customers, she is still a yellow flower girl, with her appearance, it is not a problem to sell for a hundred yuan. July took out three silver dollars and threw them in front of Li's mother, and continued, "For the food money in the past few days, you can find a Western doctor and buy some sleeping pills, don't let her make trouble, otherwise your money will be wasted, and with a hundred yuan, your son's book money will also come out." ”

Mother Li picked up the money on the ground one by one, turned around and went out with a pale face.
