The human heart is greedy.
Tian Mi was no exception.
From childhood to adulthood, she has never felt much love from her family.
After coming to this world unexpectedly, although she encountered various hardships in life, she inherited the memories and emotions of her original body, and inevitably developed a certain dependence on the Tian family.
This dependence comes from the love of parents and the ties between blood brothers and sisters.
No matter which one it is, Tian Mi thinks it is fresh and worth cherishing.
But, the weak reliance that had just sprouted seemed to be broken by someone.
Just as Tian Mi put up his guard and considered retreating, he was pulled away by a sudden force.
She was caught off guard and staggered after the person for several steps before she realized that the person who was pulling her was her fourth sister Pan Di.
The villagers' attention was all drawn to the farce of the Tian family and they did not notice this scene.
Tian Mi's eyes were cold and her pretty face was tense. She followed Pan Di, turned left and circled, and soon hid in a dilapidated mud-brick house two hundred meters away from the Tian family.
The owner of the house was an elderly widower who passed away a few years ago. Because the house was too dilapidated, small and closed, no one was willing to live in it for several years.
However, although no one lived there, the neighbors piled a lot of straw there, so at least it was a house that could shelter from the wind and rain.
After entering the house, Tian Mi discovered that her third sister Lai Di and her younger brother Xiang Yang were hiding in the dirty room full of straw.
They both stared at him worriedly.
Tian Mi looked at them, opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.
However, it was obvious that Pan Di didn't need her to say anything. She just tightened her face, took out a piece of paper from her pocket and stuffed it into Tian Mi's hand.
Then, regardless of her reaction, he turned around and pulled a small package from the third sister's hand and stuffed it into hers, then he said anxiously, "Second sister, please leave quickly."
Hearing this, Tian Mi felt a burning sensation in his heart. He suddenly stared at the little girl and asked in a whisper, "Where are you going?"
"Go find your high school classmate? Or your eldest sister? Or your third aunt? Oh, never mind, just go. I've already got you a letter of introduction to your second sister. Don't delay any longer. If your grandparents see you, you won't be able to leave."
The little girl seemed to have magical powers, otherwise how could her cold body slowly warm up after all the crackling
Tian Mi did not answer immediately, but lowered his eyes and opened the letter of introduction in his hand.
It was a certificate with a red seal from the brigade. With this, she could stay away from here and avoid the miserable fate of the heroine in the original book.
But can she really leave without any worries
If it were a few minutes ago, Tian Mi might have ignored it.
But now, after her brothers and sisters had shown all their sincerity, she was like a hedgehog that had lost its protective shell, with only its soft inner part left, and she could not move a step at all.
"Second sister, don't worry about us. We all have the surname Tian. Even if grandpa and grandma favor eldest brother, they won't do anything to us. Anyway, our parents are still here. Just go your way." Lai Di has always been honest and timid. At this moment, her sallow complexion can't hide the paleness of fear.
However, even though she was very scared, she still held her younger brother's hand and was determined to help her sister leave.
After hearing what her third sister said, Pan Di subconsciously rolled her eyes and thought that her father was okay, but it was better to forget about her mother, as she would become unreasonable whenever something happened to her eldest brother.
But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back, not wanting to say them out loud and make her second sister worry.
Tian Mi's eyes wandered over the faces of his younger brother and sister. In their eyes, there were the purest and cleanest emotions.
After a while, she suddenly raised her head without any warning and took a deep breath.
"Second sister." Tian Xiangyang was only 10 years old. Although he was smart, he was still young and didn't understand many things. Seeing that his second sister seemed to be about to cry, he also pursed his lips and wanted to cry.
Tian Mi immediately lowered her head, raised her hand and touched the little girl's head, smiled briefly, and comforted her: "Sister is fine, don't worry."
After saying this, she took another deep breath.
As the last bit of depression in her lungs was exhaled, her brows became completely firm.
Tian Mi put down the lobster on his back, held the package, and walked to the straw pile in the corner. After asking his younger brothers and sisters to sit down, he shared the few wedding candies in his pocket with them. Then he looked at his fourth sister and asked, "Pandi, tell me what happened? The more detailed the better. Also, where did you get this letter of introduction?"
"Sister, these things are not urgent. You leave first. I will write to you when you are settled." Although Pan Di is young, she has a clear mind and knows what is the most important thing at the moment.
Tian Mi shook her head. She couldn't leave yet.
Although she still hadn't figured out what exactly happened, she had a hunch that it had something to do with that scumbag Liu Xiangdong.
That bastard was dirty and cruel. If she left alone, she believed that he would definitely take revenge on the entire Tian family.
She doesn't care about the selfish old man Tian Xixin, the old lady Cao Dahong, and the idiot Tian Changqing.
But she couldn't ignore Tian Hongxing, and she couldn't bear to let her brothers and sisters who were dedicated to protecting her get hurt.
Therefore, even if he left, he had to find out what happened and make sure that he would not bring trouble to the Tian family: "First, tell me clearly where the letter of introduction came from."
Pan Di turned her head away and refused to answer.
At this moment, Tian Mi had recovered to full health. Seeing the little girl like this, she was amused. She did not force her, but looked at her third sister.
Lai Di's scalp was numb from being stared at by her second sister. She stammered for a long time without being able to say anything: "I, I."
"That's enough! I bought two packs of cigarettes and asked Accountant Zhang to help me." Seeing the honest look of the third sister, Pan Di was very disappointed. She stared at the second sister fiercely and raised her chin slightly: "Why? Is it not okay?"
Is this something that can be done
Tian Mi was quite surprised. The little girl was only about 13 years old. "Why did you think of asking Accountant Zhang for help?"
Perhaps influenced by her sister's attitude, seeing that she was not in a hurry, Pan Di was not so anxious anymore. She lay down on the haystack behind her leisurely, with a calm face: "Do I still need to think about this? Accountant Zhang's youngest son plays well with me. He tells Xiang Yang everything. Although he is greedy, he will do things for gifts. I can still afford two packs of cigarettes."
Very good logic.
Tian Mi once again felt the sense of being crushed by her fourth sister in terms of IQ.
This girl, in such an era, without the guidance of adults, actually thought of giving gifts to ask people to do things for her.
I have to say that little Pandi is amazing. It really broadened my horizons.
She even suspected that Accountant Zhang was also shocked. Who would have thought that a primary school student could be so fashionable
"What's going on at home? What does it have to do with me?"
It’s not that I trust my eldest brother’s character, but Tian Changqing is just a coward who only cares about his own business.
Tian Mi frowned: "Who is the woman?"
Hearing this, Tian Pandi got excited. She held down her third sister who wanted to interrupt, sat up, and started talking: "It's the woman from Shengli Village, the one named Wang Hongyan. Second sister, do you remember her? She was the one who reported our eldest brother for being a hooligan. Her family is so shameless that they even sent someone to tell grandpa and grandma that if you want them not to report our eldest brother, you have to marry her stupid brother and exchange your marriage with them."
"Is it her?!" Tian Mi frowned subconsciously.
Wang Hongyan has a good reputation in several nearby villages, but most of it is a bad reputation.
She was the village beauty of Shengli Village. Different from her original delicate and sweet appearance, the girl was tall, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and round and smooth face.
Although her family conditions were very ordinary, even poor, she was good-looking, so in the past few years she had been thinking about marrying into the city.
This is nothing. Tian Mi doesn’t think there is anything wrong with people striving for higher positions.
But what she was criticized for was that she was unwilling to marry the men in the village, but she did not reject their pursuit and accepted all the gifts.
This kind of thing will be talked about in an open future, let alone in such a conservative era.
Life is hard for every family in the countryside. Those young people who are pursuing their loved ones give them an egg today and two steamed buns tomorrow.
The parents at home are not well fed, but they feed a stranger so that he becomes plump and white. Isn't this like a hornet's nest
After several people came to her house to argue and reason, Wang Hongyan's reputation in several nearby villages could be described as notorious.
But she was indeed the most beautiful girl in the nearby villages, except Tian Mi.
Half a year ago, Tian Changqing fell in love with her for some reason and was determined to marry her.
It is not known whether she really fell in love with Tian Changqing or because she had not been able to marry into the city as she wished after all these years, but 23-year-old Wang Hongyan suddenly took a step back and was willing to marry into the countryside.
Of course, there are conditions.
For example, if Tian Changqing wants to marry her, he must have a formal job, and being a temporary worker is not enough.
In fact, according to Wang Hongyan's original intention, she wanted the Tian family to find her a formal job.
But she also knew that it was impossible to marry into the Tian family, so she did not ask for anything. She only planned to wait until she gave birth to a grandson for the Tian family, and then she would control the child and force the Tian family to buy her a job.
The Tian family naturally didn't know about Wang Hongyan's little thoughts, nor were they interested in knowing them, because this time, the elders in the family rarely formed a united front, and no matter how Tian Changqing made a fuss, they would not agree to Wang Hongyan entering the family.
In the eyes of the old man and his wife, their precious grandson, who is excellent in every way, absolutely cannot marry a country girl.
This commotion lasted for half a year.
No one expected that Wang Hongyan would sue Tian Hongxing for hooliganism at this time. After all, this was a conservative era, and as a woman, Wang Hongyan would be subjected to many strange looks and insults.
Tian Mi didn't think that such a smart woman would be unaware of her future situation.
Unless she has enough confidence to guarantee that she can marry into the Tian family with her head held high.
For example, this is the play she and Tian Changqing performed.
For example, there is Liu Xiangdong who supports the two of them.
After sorting out the twists and turns, Tian Mi was already 90% sure that this incident was a trap set by Liu Xiangdong for him.
Wang Hongyan is definitely not clean, but as for her cheap and stupid elder brother, that needs to be confirmed further.
No wonder.
No wonder he hasn't come around to hang around these days.
She had thought that what she said that day had made people fearful.
Unexpectedly, Anfen had been spending these days just to lay a big net.
It is not difficult to guess the dirty thoughts behind this. Doesn't he just want me to abandon my dignity and beg for mercy from him
Marrying Wang Hongyan's stupid brother was fake. Her real purpose was to marry Liu Xiangdong, which forced her to come to him and beg him to marry her.
Fuck! He probably wants to eat fart!
Tian Mi cursed in her heart, changed her sitting position irritably, and asked again: "What is my parents' attitude?"
Hearing this, Pan Di sighed and said, "Don't think about mom. The five of us Yihua brothers and sisters put together are not as good as Tian Changqing. As for our dad..."
"How is our dad?"
"Dad hasn't agreed yet, so grandpa and grandma came here crying, but they can't beat them. You know, sister, that over the years, whenever grandpa and grandma really made a fuss, it was always dad who gave in." This was also the reason why Pan Di tried to find a way to get her sister to leave. She couldn't bear to let her second sister marry a fool, a fool who would beat people.
Tian Mi pursed her lips. She had the memories of her original self. In this era, Tian Hongxing was indeed a good father, but he was too foolish and confused in his treatment of his parents.
However, she is not completely hopeless. At least when it comes to fighting crime, Tian Hongxing will not tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes.
She needs help now, so her father must stand on her side.
As long as the entry point is found well, then there is room for maneuver.
Moreover, Liu Xiangdong went through so much trouble and also revealed a piece of information in disguise.
Her last threat did work. There were indeed people in the county or urban area that the Liu family was afraid of.
Thinking of this, Tian Mi looked at her youngest brother and said, "Xiangyang, go and help your sister bring our dad here. Do it quietly."
