"Since everyone is here, let's go home and drink some water." Meng Li saw that the second girl couldn't say anything for a while, so he said to the woman.
The woman hesitated for a moment, then nodded. When Meng Li took the woman home, her mother-in-law gathered around and asked her who she was.
It’s been a long time since we had a guest at home. The last time anyone came was when the eldest girl’s husband’s family came to look for trouble.
Meng Li said: "It seems to be Er Yatou's biological mother."
This immediately aroused the mother-in-law's alertness. She stared at the woman and said, "What are you doing here? You have raised the child, do you want to take it away?"
"I'm telling you that there is no such thing. The government won't allow it. The second girl belongs to our family. Even if we want to sell her, it must be our family."
Second girl: "..."
Why sell her.
Meng Li: "..."
Why does this mother-in-law make people laugh so much when she talks
The woman smiled bitterly and said, "Old man, you have misunderstood. I never meant this. I just want to come back and see her. If you don't welcome her, I will leave immediately." She turned around and was about to leave.
Meng Li stretched out his hand to hold her and said, "Sister, the old man is a little more upright. Don't worry about it."
Even if this woman will definitely come back to look for Er Yatou after she leaves, it is better to say something to her this time and make her purpose clear.
Even if you take refuge with Er Yatou, you still have to look at Er Yatou's opinion.
"Sister-in-law, you are such a generous person." The woman raised her head and looked at Meng Li. She did not insist on leaving, but just stood there at a loss.
The mother-in-law asked Meng Li directly: "Why did you bring her back?"
Meng Li said: "Everyone said something happened."
"You want to give the second girl to her?" The mother-in-law was worried that the second girl would follow the woman.
Meng Li said patiently: "I didn't say I wanted to give it to her. Let's take a look first. Don't be too hasty."
The mother-in-law said angrily: "Am I anxious? I spent so much food to raise a dog and I'm afraid of losing it."
Second girl: "..."
"Anyway, in your eyes, I will lose money if I run away." She couldn't help but say.
Meng Li glanced at her indifferently, and the second girl shut her mouth. Meng Li said to her, "Even if she thinks it's normal to lose money, raising a child is also a kind of investment. Besides, she also feels reluctant to let go."
The second girl nodded dullly: "I understand."
But the mother-in-law still said stubbornly: Who can't bear to leave her? "
She turned to the woman and said: "As the saying goes, no matter what, you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace. You must have something to do when you come here. Take her away? Then you have to clean up some of the food she has eaten over the years. You have to compensate us."
The woman sighed, a little helpless, but agreed with her: "Of course it should."
Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that it was a comment in agreement with her, but her mother-in-law took it seriously and almost jumped: "Are you really planning to take her away? Do you want to buy her out?"
"Then we worked hard to raise her and expect her to be filial to us for a long time. What if we buy her out?"
The second girl's expression was very difficult to express. Although she really felt that her grandmother was reluctant to let her go, she still felt that these words were unpleasant and embarrassing. Gradually, she finally understood how unpleasant the words she had said before were.
Meng Li said: "Are you thirsty, old man? Can I bring you some water?"
The mother-in-law glared at Meng Li, who raised his eyebrows and stared at her silently for a few seconds.
Besides, if you keep talking, don’t blame me for putting you in trouble.
My mother-in-law also immediately "understood" and she fell silent.
never mind.
Seeing her shut up, Meng Li smiled and asked the woman to sit down, and then asked the third and second girls to bring water. There was nothing to eat at home to entertain the guests, only a bowl of water, which was helpless.
The woman sat down, but her mother-in-law refused to leave and stared at her warily. Even when the water was brought to her, she refused to drink it.
Meng Li took a sip of water and said, "Drink some water to quench your thirst. I've seen you lingering around here these days."
The woman glanced at Meng Li awkwardly: "You've already discovered it."
Meng Li nodded: "Yes, I always feel like someone is nearby."
"Then I should have appeared a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to be such a magnanimous person." She felt a little ashamed.
I always wanted to wait for Er Yatou to be alone, but after observing secretly for a few days, Er Yatou always went out with Ren and came back together, and there was no chance to talk to Er Yatou alone.
Before, she was afraid that Mrs. Ren would prevent them from getting to know each other as mother and daughter, but she never expected that Mrs. Ren would take the initiative to bring the second girl here, and even directly raise the topic.
Meng Li smiled and asked, "Then do you need to talk alone?"
The second girl looked at Meng Li blankly, shook her head and said, "No, if you have anything to say, just say it here."
It was obvious that she was a little repelled. She used to look forward to her biological parents appearing, rescuing her, and changing her.
Although her biological mother is not rich from the clothes she wears, she is still better dressed than anyone in the family now. Even if she is not as good as Er Yatou imagined, she is still better. If Er Yatou is really greedy for wealth, she should have a better attitude. .
Meng Li didn't know whether it was because he had changed Er Yatou, or because Er Yatou's mother did not live up to Er Yatou's expectations and she was repulsive, or because she still had some strange emotions.
The woman was a little disappointed and let out a very forced laugh. She said to Meng Li: "Forget it if the child doesn't want it."
The mother-in-law murmured beside her: "This little girl has a conscience."
No one paid any attention to her.
"Sister-in-law, you are such a kind person, would you blame me for coming back and disturbing this girl's life?" She looked at Meng Li sadly.
Meng Li shook his head: "No wonder."
It's better to be back. At least it's confirmed who Er Yatou's mother is, and it also eliminates Er Yatou's various fantasies about her biological parents.
"I have been really helpless these years. Seeing that my child is doing well with you, I don't dare to bother you." Her voice was apologetic and helpless.
The mother-in-law said: "Then why do you have the nerve to come back and make trouble now?"
The woman sighed, and the old man resented her.
"The child was abandoned like this back then. You weren't afraid of being eaten by a wolf. You didn't care about life or death at the time, but now you have deep love and righteousness?" the mother-in-law said again.
There was some truth in what the mother-in-law said, which made the woman lower her head in shame. She said:
"It was really helpless back then, but I was hiding in the dark and didn't leave until my sister-in-law took the child away. I had to protect her safety and never thought of letting her die." The woman accepted.
The mother-in-law rolled her eyes disdainfully: "It doesn't depend on what you say now. Who knows what the reality was back then."
menu Imprinted.
She just abandoned the child for some reason and hoped that someone would adopt the child. She never thought of letting the child die.
After hearing what her mother-in-law said, the woman also fell silent, and seemed unwilling to quibble or argue any more.
