Chapter 47: Uncovering the Truth
Although I still want to know what kind of illness my aunt has, I also know that I can't ask her any more at this time. I was still wondering whether to continue asking her about my mother, and she spoke up on her own.
She wiped her tears and said, "Linglong, anyway, I've already lived to this age, and your mother is no longer here, just ask if you have anything you want to ask." Auntie is not afraid, Auntie has such a life left, it doesn't matter if she lives or dies. ”
I just want to ask a few questions, why would my aunt say so much?
"Auntie, I'...... I'm actually just trying to ask you how many children my mom had. ”
"Before you, your mother gave birth to seven boys. All seven boys died after birth. You're the eighth, and your sister is the ninth! "My aunt didn't have any procrastination and answered me directly.
Seven boys?
No, I remember there were eight small coffins in the catacombs! "Auntie, are you mistaken?"
"How could such a thing be mistaken? Your mother gave birth to seven boys. I was always there when the first seven boys were born. Only when you were born, I didn't make it over, thinking that you would be the same as the previous children, so I didn't have much hope, but I didn't expect your mother to call me later and tell me that she had given birth to twins, and she was still alive. At that time, don't mention how happy I was...... "Auntie is sure to be seven boys!"
If it weren't for my aunt's mistake, where did the extra coffin come from? I found eight coffins at the bottom of the well, but my aunt said that my mother gave birth to a total of seven children and died!
And it just so happened that the first seven children were all boys, and my sister and I were lucky to survive after being girls!
What makes me most curious is where the extra coffin came from.
I still think it's very likely that my aunt can't remember it for a long time, but she must be so sure.
The extra coffin bothered me again, and I always felt that there must be something else in it.
I have a lot of questions, but I don't have any clues, and I don't know what to do next.
When I was extremely troubled, what my aunt said next completely gave me a clue.
"I think your father is not a person in this life, I don't tell you what he said to your mother, you know. People like him eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, if he hadn't had other women outside, your mother wouldn't have seen through him! The aunt said angrily.
"Isn't it normal for my dad to have other women outside?" I don't blame me for being so calm, but Boss Xia's past history is too rich.
He had been in prison for several years, and he heard that he had drunk alcohol and spoiled the girls in the next village, and when he came out, he and several widows did not understand.
My mom didn't feel anything about what he did, and it seemed that she was already dead, so she was so calm!
But for Boss Xia's character, those aunts and grandmothers in my family are blindly tolerant, and it can even be said that there is no bottom line at all!
Every time I had the slightest disobedience, they would say I was disobedient.
Of course, it's not just me, it's even more extreme to my sister!
I remember one time, Boss Xia asked my sister Tang Xin to sleep with an old man in the village for money, but Tang Xin refused to comply, so she ran away from home in anger.
I really think he is too disgusting, my mother has been protecting me at that time, and he didn't dare to hit me with his ideas, so he often took Tang Xin under the knife.
Yes, my mom always fought to defend me, but to my sister, she didn't.
I always feel that her feelings for her sister are very strange, as if it is a feeling of love and hate, and I feel a little distant......
Tang Xin ran away and was caught by him again. Tang Xin told her family the ins and outs of the matter, hoping that someone would make the decision for her, but what did they say?
Grandma said, "It's not easy for your father to give birth to you, he has no money, what's wrong with letting you go and sleep with others all night?" And not a pound of meat is missing. ”
My aunt said, "Dad will always be Daddy, even if it's wrong, it's still Daddy." You are a junior, forget about the past, there is nothing to worry about......"
I don't want to complain about this family.
It's just that I pity Tang Xin, and now my life and death are unknown......
My aunt sighed deeply and pulled my thoughts back, "That time was different. Your dad was going to divorce your mom for that woman at that time, saying he was going to marry that woman. ”
Forehead...... Isn't that great?
I think it's good! And that's not without what to do? What is this kind of man going to do?
No, people say that they would rather demolish three temples than a marriage, how can I think about getting them divorced? Am I evil?
"Then why didn't my mother divorce him later?"
"Because your mom liked your dad back then. Although your father is dirty, he was also a charming jade-faced boy when he was young. Plus your dad was kind to your mom at that time. Auntie said.
If it's kindness, then I won't talk about it, if it's because Boss Xia is good-looking, then it's really ...... Leave me speechless!
is good-looking, but his character is so bad, and he is also a scum when he is alive.
Actually, I don't know what's going on with me, supposedly, they all bleed the same blood as me anyway, and I should have a little bit in common with them, but my looks, temperament, and even thoughts don't match them.
And then there's ...... I don't look like Tang Xin! Even though we're twins, we still don't look alike.
And it's not a little bit like it, it's not like it.
People say that 90% of twins will look alike, but Tang Xin and I belong to the other 10%, not like!
Of course, Tang Xin is a very beautiful girl, which cannot be denied, and even her appearance is better than mine.
My mom has been defending me since I was a child, and to a certain extent. Sometimes I really wonder if Tang Xin was born to her......
Because Tang Xin really has no status in this family, but Tang Xin and Boss Xia look so similar, this genetic problem can't be a coincidence, right?
"Auntie, you said that my dad is kind to my mother, what kind of kindness?" I asked, a little curious.
What other decent things can Boss Xia do? Saying that he has a kindness to my mother, I don't believe it anyway!
"This, ah......" Speaking of this, her face changed slightly, and it seemed that it was not convenient to leak it.
Her squirming look made me a little incomprehensible. "Auntie, is there anything you can't say? I'm not an outsider, so what else do you care? ”
