Chapter 2: Family Discord (1)
At dinner, Ji's father did not come back.
Twilight fell, and after eating, Ji Wei took the initiative to clean up the table, and stacked the dishes and bowls of the eaten meals together and prepared to take them to the kitchen to wash.
Mother Ji was really surprised at this time, "Weiwei, why are you suddenly so sensible today?"
Ji Wei smiled gently: "Mom's cooking is so hard, I should always express it!"
Hearing this, Ji's mother didn't know how to describe the feelings in her heart, she always felt that today's daughter was a little different, although her daughter was usually very caring, but she has always been introverted and doesn't like to talk, and after all, she is a child, basically she doesn't like to do housework, not to mention that her daughter usually hates washing dishes, and sometimes she teases it with housework, and she can almost pout her mouth into a teapot.
Seeing that Ji Wei really took the initiative to bring the dishes and rice bowls to the kitchen, Ji's mother followed with some anxiety.
Ji Wei skillfully rolled up her sleeves and turned on the faucet to put water and dish soap.
In the previous life, I was single to middle aged, and I was basically used to doing housework, and even the most hated dishwashing when I was young became insignificant in my long life.
Sensing that there was someone behind her, Ji Wei turned her head slightly, and saw that Ji's mother was still a little surprised.
"Mom, go watch TV and take a break, I'll wash this bowl." Ji Wei said thoughtfully.
She is now twelve years old, and she can do some housework, which is taught by Ji's mother on weekdays.
Mother Ji's expression was complicated and in a trance, she always had the feeling that her daughter was taking care of herself, and the tone of her daughter's voice sounded like it made people feel that the relationship between their mother and daughter was reversed.
...... It must be that there is something wrong with how I feel today!!, Mother Ji, thought.
But the daughter suddenly became so sensible, and the heart of being a mother was happier than anything else.
When Ji Wei washed the dishes, cleaned up the kitchen, and returned to the living room, she saw Ji's mother watching a TV series, which was playing a very popular costume drama that year.
Ji Wei glanced at it and shifted her gaze with little interest.
Ji's mother saw her daughter coming over and said, "Don't put the food in the refrigerator first, your father hasn't come back yet." ”
Ji Wei was stunned for a moment, and her eyes flickered slightly.
"Mom, will Dad come to dinner today? He came back after eating a few days ago. Ji Wei looked at Ji's mother's expression carefully, and asked quietly on her face.
Mother Ji frowned when she heard this, and her expression was much colder, "Then leave him alone, put the dishes in the refrigerator, you can take out the strawberries I bought today and eat them, so you don't have to spoil them." ”
"Okay. Ji Wei answered, and her eyes darkened when she turned around.
It turned out that the relationship between the parents was already bad at this time.
In the last life, Ji Wei only learned that her parents' relationship had broken down when she was eighteen years old.
In order to maintain the apparent peace, Ji's mother created an illusion of family harmony for her, and endured Ji's father behind her back for several years.
It wasn't until Ji Wei was admitted to college that she couldn't hold back and fell out completely.
Ji Wei remembered that her father and mother were arguing at home at that time, as well as the persecution of her grandmother and her father's relatives.
In the end, her mother took her out of the house, and the hard-earned money of a lifetime of hard work was put on that family, and she was penniless, so she had to leave her hometown and continue to work to barely make ends meet.
The memories of childhood are a little long ago for Ji Wei, but in the end, they were personally experienced in the previous life, and they also left a deep impression on her at that time, but they were not good memories.
Ji's mother's real name is Sun Yueping, her ancestral home is in the countryside of the mountains, her parents are simple farmers, she has a brother and a sister in the family, and her family is not rich, but fortunately, she is not hungry.
Later, Ji's mother went to the county seat to study, and went to a specialized science and technology school, and the universities at that time were rare, and Ji's mother was born in the countryside, and it was already a very hard work to be able to read a junior college.
Fortunately, at that time, the bag from the technical school was assigned to work, and Ji's mother was able to bear hardships and stand hard work, so she joined the work as soon as she graduated.
It was also at that time that Ji's mother met Ji's father, Ji Chengping.
Ji's father's family was originally in the city, and his ancestors were still big landowners, although they later declined, but the family background is somewhat bit, and the three brothers in the family have a piece of land in the center of the county, and they have built three two-story small buildings.
At that time, it was already an enviable big family.
Ji's mother and Ji's father were a family formed after meeting the free love advocated in that era, in fact, at the beginning, life was still peaceful.
But Ji's father's parents don't like Ji's mother's daughter-in-law, and Ji's father's two brothers marry daughters-in-law who are city girls with small assets in the family, and Ji's mother, who was born in the countryside, is even more unlikable to her in-laws.
Under such a family conflict, Ji's mother's life is getting worse and worse day by day.
Especially after Ji's mother gave birth to Ji Wei's daughter, her status at home was even more shaky.
The ancestors of the Ji family are big landlords, with typical patriarchal thinking, Ji's mother's two sisters-in-law gave birth to sons, so the back is straight at home, only Ji's mother only gave birth to a daughter, and at that time, the country was planning for family planning, and the city was strictly controlled, only one child was allowed, and Ji Wei was destined to be an only daughter.
This time it's even worse, in Ji Wei's impression, she has never seen her grandmother's good face!
