Sitting in the dim room, Gu Mo's eyes roamed around the room.

The walls have begun to peel because they can't stand the moisture with low-quality plaster, and large patches of powder have fallen on the rough concrete floor, and the white ash is all over the floor.

On all sides of the room were decayed wooden cabinets, but even then the room was still clean, and there was no dust on the tabletop when your hands touched it.

It was rainy at night in spring, and there was a sound of ticking water outside the roller shutter door, and the cold wind mixed with water vapor penetrated from under the half-open roller shutter door, which was so cold that Gu Mo couldn't help but shiver.

It's not a house that people live in at all! It's clearly a shop, a dilapidated shop abandoned at the end of an alley with no commercial value!

The scene in front of him diluted the joy of reunion after a long absence, Gu Mo looked at Meng Yue across the table, and said distressedly:

"Mom, tell me what the hell is going on?"

Meng Yue poured some hot water from the thermos flask into the glass, sighed and slowly sat down in front of Gu Mo, the mouth of the glass was still notched.

Seeing that he couldn't hide his daughter, he had to tell what happened two years ago.

Two years ago, she was hospitalized for more than half a year after surgery, and when she returned home half a year later, she found that the house she had lived in for more than ten years was actually occupied by her sister-in-law Gu Mei's family!

At that time, Meng Yue had just been discharged from the hospital, her husband had died and her daughter was in prison, and the neighbors around her looked at her like a plague god, and helped Gu Mei's family say that she was the mother of a murderer.

Gu Mei, who was supported by someone, was naturally even more arrogant, and directly pushed Meng Yue out of the community in front of a bunch of neighbors, and the onlookers kept applauding.

Meng Yue had to rely on the little money left to find a place to live, and he also needed to spend money to buy medicine, which was simply broken into two pieces for one dollar. In the end, in order to be cheap, I only rented this dilapidated shop in the corner, although it was cold in winter and hot in summer, but fortunately, it could shelter from the wind and rain.

Speaking of this, Meng Yue's tone was still very calm, his rough peeling hand covered the back of Gu Mo's hand, and he slowly spoke: "I also went out to look for a job, but who would dare to hire me if I am still sick in my fifties?" In the end, I had to go out of the stall to sell oden to make ends meet. ”

The hand holding the cup tightened, and the nails were white from the exertion, but in a trance, it seemed that something had been thought.

"By the way, Mom, where's your pension?!"

Even if she is bullied by Gu Mei and has no place to live, at least having a pension will not make life so tight now.

"Pension?"

Meng Yue looked dazed, as if he had heard of this thing for the first time, "That thing is going to be handled, right?" I don't know how. ”

Wrong!

She had already helped her mother get a pension before she went in, and the bank card had not come down yet, so she asked her best friend Fan Jing to get the card when the time came. She believes in Fan Jing's character, but why didn't she receive it?

Immediately called Fan Jing to ask about the pension.

"I'll give it to my aunt!"

Fan Jing said with certainty on the phone, and the next second she changed her words, "No! I remembered that my aunt was resting in the hospital at the time, so I gave it to a relative who was present at the time and asked that person to help hand it over. ”

"Who did you give it to?"

"That person said it was Auntie's sister-in-law, what is it called?"

Gu Mei!!

It's her again!

In the past, when my father was alive, this aunt took advantage of her family, and later bullied my mother to occupy the house honestly, but I didn't expect that even my mother's pension would be accounted for, which was the money for my mother's life! It's just intolerable!

Fan Jing on the phone also sensed that something was wrong, and asked anxiously: "Didn't that person give the bank card to Auntie?" ”

Gu Mo didn't answer, originally Fan Jing was also helping her, there was no reason for her to be affected, "There's no such thing, I'm just here to ask you, you can rest quickly, good night, let's have a good time together." ”

Hung up the phone in a hurry, Gu Mo's face gradually became gloomy, if people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, if people offend me, I will pay it back a hundred times.

Meng Yue was a little worried, and stretched out her hand and gently covered the back of Gu Mo's hand.

"Momo, I support you in whatever you do, but you must pay attention to safety, you are your mother's only hope."

The rough hand radiated warmth, warming the broken heart.

At night, Gu Mo couldn't sleep for a long time.

There is a window above the room, and even if you use window paper, the room is still as bright as day.

suddenly felt that in the past two years, her mother had not necessarily lived better outside than she had been in prison, at least she didn't have to worry about eating and sleeping.

In the darkness, her eyes were sour again, and she quickly turned her head for fear of making a movement that would wake up the person sleeping next to her.

The afterglow swept to the photograph on the bedside table, and the energetic eighteen-year-old girl was smiling brightly.

She remembers that she participated in a modeling competition in college, and she was desperately practicing her steps in order to get a scholarship, but she didn't have much hope, but she didn't expect to win the first place in the end.

Look up at the small window above and look at the light that is shining in.

Her life is in tatters, but she always has to sew and mend it, otherwise how can she become a pillar for her mother?

Now it is becoming more and more urgent to find a job and start earning money......

Drowsiness crept in until dawn broke, and the light from the small overhead window changed from street lamps to morning light.

Every morning at half past six o'clock in the morning, she woke up without moving, and suddenly she didn't have to run morning exercises, so that Gu Mo couldn't adapt to it, and folded the quilt on the bed back and forth three times, until the quilt became a standard tofu block without a trace of wrinkles, and she went to breakfast satisfied.

Breakfast is no longer porridge without rice and dry steamed buns, but Meng Yue's fried fritters and freshly cooked soy milk.

Gu Mo sat next to the open roller shutter door, watching the people outside chewing fritters in their mouths, and many unread messages on the mobile phone were sent by Fang Zhixu last night:

[My mother asked you to go to the old mansion for a party tomorrow. 】

[Reply to the message.] 】

Gu Mo snorted coldly, and was about to turn off the screen, when another message flashed on his phone.

[Three million don't want? 】

Holding the fritter's hand, she knew what it meant to be a junjie who knew the times, and hurriedly clicked twice on the screen.

[I'm sorry Mr. Fang, there was no signal on my mobile phone just now, what time is it today? ] I'll just go to the old house by myself. 】

[Send me your address.] 】

Just as he was about to reply to the message, he heard a sound outside the rolling shutter door.

"Yo, isn't this Momo?! Did you come back early? ”

"Why don't you tell my aunt, don't you treat me as your own family?"

Gu Mo raised her head and looked at the visitor, a sneer appeared on her face, and before she could make a move, she took the initiative to send it to the door.

Gu Mei outside the roller shutter door was walking to the shop with a bag of vegetables, the gold bracelet in her hand was shining, and there were gold pendants as big as thumbs hanging on both ears, which were a little deformed from the piercings of her ears.

"Momo, let my aunt see, you've been suffering in it these days, hey......"

Gu Mei sighed, stretched out her left hand to wrap it on Gu Mo's arm, and grabbed the leftover sugar from last night on the table directly into her pocket with her right hand.

It's a lotus, it's very expensive outside.

When his left hand touched the rough fabric, he immediately let go, rubbing his thumb and forefinger in disgust, as if he had touched something dirty.

"Momo, why have you lost weight like this? My aunt is really distressed, go to my house for dinner another day, and I'll get you something to eat. ”

Gu Mo stared at her coldly, and didn't smile, "It's still not good, so disturb my aunt." ”

Out of politeness, Meng Yue brought a glass of water and put it in front of Gu Mei.

"Thank you, sister-in-law, Momo, what are you polite to me, everyone is a family."

Picking up the cup, he swept the gap on it, and immediately pushed the cup farther away in disgust.

Every move was looked at by Gu Mo, and the sneer on the corner of his mouth deepened.

"I didn't expect my aunt to come today."

As soon as Gu Mei mentioned this, she immediately became energetic, "Hey, isn't this Yulin going to get married?" I'm here today to deliver a wedding card. ”

"Oh, I see, then congratulations to my aunt for finding a good son-in-law."

Gu Mei loved to listen to this, and there was a smugness in her eyebrows, "That's not it, that is, my family's rainforest luck is good, and I just happened to find a rich husband!" ”

As soon as the box is opened, it can't be closed at all.

"It's a small business owner, and the company has more than a dozen employees! The projects are tens of millions, and the dowry for the rainforest is hundreds of thousands! ”

is so rich, so what are you doing with her house?

Gu Mo lowered his head and replied to the message that he hadn't finished just now, and soon replied to the message over there.

[Fang Zhixu: I'll pick you up later. 】

Gu Mei saw that Gu Mo didn't say anything, thinking that the other party was surprised by those numbers, and she was even more proud, so she pretended to look at the shop curiously.

"Momo, didn't your husband accompany you? You've just come out, and it's time when you need company! ”

Seeing that there was really no one else in the shop, I was happy in my heart.

"I haven't seen him show up before you got married."

"I haven't seen your husband pick up my sister-in-law in the past two years, so I won't ......"

The words of concern were spoken, and the look in his eyes was completely gloating.

"It's not going to be a divorce, is it?"

She would have liked, but the contract wouldn't allow it.

Gu Mo drank the last bit of soy milk in the bowl and wiped his mouth, "I haven't left yet." ”

But it's also fast.

Gu Mei was obviously a little disappointed that she didn't hear the answer she wanted, but after thinking about it, this Gu Mo has never brought her husband out to meet relatives since she got married, that person must be ugly and poor, and he can't do it at all, so he will applaud if he doesn't leave!

In the past, her family Yulin and Gu Mo were in the same class, one went to 985 after the college entrance examination, and the other went to a junior college.

Now it's different, 985's life is over when he goes to prison, and the college has the glory and wealth after marrying a rich man.

This confirms the old saying, "If you learn well, you might as well marry well." ”

Now that Gu Mo's family can be trampled under her feet, Gu Mei doesn't want to mention it in her heart, "Momo, if you can't find a job, just tell me, I'll go and say something good to my son-in-law, and let you go to work in his garment factory." ”

"My son-in-law's factory is still very good, and there are dozens of workers!"
