Chapter 8: Sweet Temptation
"Well, it's not that exaggerated! Your cousin was very kind to you today! Meng Yao looked at her with some amusement, and the next moment the elevator door opened, someone came in, and the two squeezed inside.
"That's an outsider, one is you, it's not that she doesn't know who you are, not to mention that there is a handsome guy, presumably he is still rich, even if she doesn't like it, but the image is still wanted, otherwise how can she mix in the boundary of Xishi!" Chen Ke complained softly in Meng Yao's sideburns, "I'm worried that if it doesn't work out, my mother will chop me up as firewood!" ”
"The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes! How about you are all biological! Meng Yao simply admired her remarks, and at the same time, her eyes became a little dim.
"I'm sorry!" Chen Ke seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and looked at Meng Yao very nervously.
"It's okay, I'm thinking too much about myself, although she is not my own mother, but she can still be with me!" Meng Yao shook his head and said with a smile. Yes, now the woman she calls mom every day is not her own mother, her biological mother died when she was three years old, and she still doesn't know if it was an accident or an illness, and her mother was very abnormal in those days, holding her all day long, looking very sad and shedding tears, and then one day she woke up but couldn't find her mother, and the last time she saw it was at the funeral home, and all she saw was a black and white beautiful photo of a smile, and since then she knew that her mother would never hold her again.
After a few years, she spent the next few years at her grandmother's house in Kyoto, until she was about to go to elementary school, her grandmother suddenly had a high blood pressure attack and almost had a stroke, and her father took her back to Xi City, when her father was no longer as gentle as before, and he didn't love to smile at her as much as before, and he hugged her every day when he had time to tease her, and the father and daughter also had a nanny, and the days were very dull, and she lost weight day by day, and gradually stopped talking. It didn't take long for Dad to bring back a woman and ask her to call Mom.
She still remembers what she said at the time, "She's not my mom, my mom is dead and will never come back!" The father was furious, and his raised slap was stopped.
"She's still a child, she has something to say!" The woman was gentle, and she smiled like a mother with two little pear vortices, and although she didn't remember it very well, every picture of her mother helped her remember it very well. "Yaoyao, you can call me aunt, although you were not born to me, but I will love you as much as your mother!"
Children are always very easy to coax, she doesn't remember very much when she started calling her mother, maybe after her parent-teacher conference, maybe earlier, the stepmother-like plot of Snow White in Chen Ke's impression did not happen to her, even if she had her own child five years ago, she was still kind to her. It's her own father, who hasn't hugged her half-brother for more than ten years, with a warm smile and praise and encouragement, and only in front of the Jiang family did she show a fatherly expression, but she didn't say anything about it, what could she do, I heard that her father regarded her mother as a treasure back then, but since marrying that woman, everything has changed imperceptibly, and it doesn't mean that she doesn't know.
"That is, I went to your house in the morning, and Aunt He said that you were still sleeping, and whispered to your brother not to disturb you by playing in the car in the house!" Yes, what a superb acting skill, it will be like this in front of Dad, although the child is quite kind to her, but she has heard the woman she called Mom say to such a young child more than once, "Baby, don't make trouble with my sister, so that Dad will like the baby more, my sister will be someone else's sooner or later, so all the good things in the house are the baby's, but if the baby often makes her sister unhappy, Dad will be angry, then this house and the delicious and fun at home will be gone!" ”
"The baby has to kiss his sister more today and hug his sister, so that Brother Jiang will buy a lot of good things for the baby, and Dad will be very happy!"
… And so on, she would be shocked and sad at first, but when she thought about it, it was okay that this way, the family was harmonious, and she was indeed an outsider one day, although she had calculations, but it didn't hurt her, and she could pretend not to know, but her heart slowly became cold.
"yes, you know, my mom and my brother treated me so much better than my dad treated me!" Dad is a father, but the younger brother and stepmother, if there is no one, their family of three should be more harmonious, fortunately, the family conditions are okay, don't worry about her food, clothing, housing and transportation, in fact, even if the mother stays and the grandparents over the years, the aunt has given it for the New Year's holiday, she has not spent it all, she spends just a small amount of money, compared with the family, it is not worth mentioning.
"I don't know who hugged me and cried, saying that I was going to be thrown to the zoo by my stepmother to feed the wolves!" Seeing that Meng Yao's expression was the same, Chen Ke teased her, and the haze just now was swept away.
"That was more than ten years ago, children are not sensible, and I have watched too many fairy tale movies!" Still smiling, her heart was cold, what else could she care about, in fact they were able to maintain the appearance she felt was enough.
The two went out of the mall, and they didn't have the heart to go shopping, so they took a taxi home, but fortunately the two lived in the same villa area, which was convenient.
When Meng Yao returned home, someone came over very enthusiastically, naturally it was her stepmother, and her younger brother who watched her hold a big snack bag, both of them called her affectionately, and even handed her slippers. If it weren't for the overheard too many times, she would have felt that she was really her own mother and brother.
"Haohao, come, my sister bought a lot of delicious and good-looking Dongdong today, do you want it?" The little boy in front of him is also very good-looking, especially the mouth, the small thin shape is very gentle, and the nose is as small and clever as his mother, if you have to say that there is a brother and sister with her, then it is the thick, dense and thick hair inherited from her father, which is probably the most dissatisfied with her.
"Okay, okay, thank you, sister!" The little boy is Meng Yao's half-brother, called Meng Tianhao, and his name is Meng Yao, it is a distant dream, but his son is called Tianhao, how majestic.
"Baby, no, you have a cough, you can't eat sweet!" This is a fact, otherwise the child would not have been at home on a Sunday afternoon.
"It's okay Mom, I also bought loquat candy, it should be no problem to eat one or two!" Meng Yao turned it out of the bag and did not give it directly to the little boy, but gave it to the woman.
"This is okay, but babies can only eat one!" After carefully reading the ingredient description, he nodded and said.
"Don't, don't baby, the baby wants a lot, my sister buys it so beautiful, the baby wants it!" No matter how much the little boy taught, he was still too young, and naturally he would not let go when he saw these beloved things.
"Wait until you're ready, mom will buy it for you, these are my sister's!" The woman still insisted.
"No, I want it now!" Some of them started to play scoundrels, but fortunately they refused verbally.
"Why are you disobedient?" The expression began to be serious. "Tianhao, obedient, my mother stewed rock sugar pears for you, they are also sweet and beautiful!"
"No, I won't! When my cough is better, you should say that eating snacks will cause tooth decay, and you will gain weight and not tall! "It's really very organized, Meng Yao sighed in her heart, but she suddenly felt that something was wrong, she ate snacks whenever she wanted since she was a child, and the snacks at home were basically not broken, but they were not so casual in the past two years, and she couldn't help but laugh in her heart.
