"Maybe you're tired of eating a vegetarian diet and suddenly want to make a meat?"

"So what do we do?" My uncle subconsciously asked my aunt's opinion.

I only heard a hint of impatience in my aunt's voice: "What else can I do, we can't afford to offend this kind of person." Of course, Meng Yao was properly washed and sent to bed, so as not to offend the ancestor who couldn't be provoked. ”

"But—isn't Brother Long very cruel to women...... Meng Yao, she's frail and sickly, I'm afraid it's-"

"What does she have to do with us? I've raised a child for your unlucky sister for five years, eating and drinking for nothing, not to mention any benefits, don't say anything about it, don't let our family have an accident because of this broom star. Don't you want to think about it, if it doesn't go well with others, what if Brother Long sends a fire to our Mengyi? ”

Thinking of his biological daughter Zhao Mengyi, his uncle hurriedly nodded and responded: "Yes, yes, I didn't expect this layer, it's terrible, hurry up and send Meng Yao there." ”

"You can't send it directly, in case that Nizi doesn't obey desperately, something happens to be small, and offending Brother Long is big."

Uncle rubbed his hands anxiously, "What should I do then?" ”

The aunt glanced at him meaningfully, "Isn't there still a little sleeping pill left after you went to the hospital last time?" ”

Zhao Mengyao, who was standing outside the door, seemed to be standing naked in the ice and snow, and her heart was completely burned to ashes.

When she was fifteen years old, her mother, who had been raising her alone, had an accident and entrusted her to her aunt and uncle for adoption.

My aunt and uncle are both stable civil servants, and their families are well-off, and they treat her kindly.

didn't give a roll of eyes to a person like her who didn't leave for nothing, but in some things, it was obvious that she was close and estranged.

For example, sending their own daughter abroad for further study, but letting her go to a public school with poor reviews and low prices; never gave her pocket money, nor would she buy her clothes, Zhao Mengyao could only wear old clothes that Zhao Mengyi was tired of wearing and didn't want; When the school had to charge for materials, my aunt would always mumble that the family was not financially rich recently, and that there was really no money to support idlers and so on; When she took a shower for more than ten minutes, her aunt would pretend to go to the toilet or wash her hands, knock on her door, and after she came out in a panic to dry her body and get dressed, her aunt did not forget to count her and say, "The water bill is not cheap now, and a five-minute bath is enough."

Although there are such things, Zhao Mengyao is reminded all the time that he is just an outsider who is under the fence and unpopular.

But she was still grateful.

At least she had a home. Although my aunt and uncle are a bit of a philistine, they are not bad people.

While Zhao Mengyao went to school, she secretly worked in a bar, and did some odd jobs to earn extra money, also in order to minimize the burden on the family and make some meager contributions to the family.

She is genuine, and she sees this place as her home.

She also often thinks that her rebellious and disobedient cousin will probably not support the two old people well in the future, and then she can do everything she can to let her aunt and uncle enjoy their old age in peace.

Now all these dreams are shattered.

Or in such a tragic way.

It turned out that the so-called home was all wishful thinking on her own.

No matter how hard he has worked over the years, in the eyes of his aunt and uncle, he has always been an insignificant existence, and even a big trouble that he can't avoid.
