"No, he's passed away from kidney failure."
"oh!"
"When she passed away, I was the only one around her, she had no relatives, she was such a pitiful girl.
At least I was by her side, so her death wasn’t too tragic.”
When Wei Qiang said the last sentence, his voice was a little choked, and then he changed the subject and looked at Bai Chen, "Juanmei, family is always family, please don't be angry with your parents anymore, okay
If you have time, you should go back to the Wei family to have a look."
Bai Chen nodded, suppressed the sadness in his heart, and said nothing.
Wei Juan couldn't forgive her parents, and Bai Chen couldn't forgive them either.
It is really difficult to forgive those parents who favor boys over girls and are extremely biased.
But my eldest sister is a good person, and now it seems that my brother is also a good person, so I can’t vent my anger on them.
"Where is my little sister now? Do you know, brother?" Bai Chen asked, changing the subject.
"She is doing very well now, very busy, working at Tao Teng Antiques." When Wei Qiang talked about his younger sister, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"My younger sister once worked as a nanny in the home of an antique connoisseur. Later, the owner of the house thought that my younger sister was smart and kind-hearted, so he wanted to teach her a housekeeping skill.
A few years later, the child grew up, and the younger sister also became a master. Now she has opened her own antique shop.
Compared to her, I am too embarrassed to see anyone." Wei Qiang's tone sounded sour, but his expression showed that he was proud of it.
Recalling Wei Juan’s younger sister Wei Xiang, she was an impetuous girl. She dropped out of school at the age of ten, and then resolutely left the small mountain village and joined the team of migrant workers.
At that time, Wei Juan was still in junior high school. Before her younger sister left home, she said to Wei Juan, "Sister, don't waste your energy. Your parents can't afford to send you to college.
It is better to go out into society early and pursue a future.'
Wei Juan was disdainful of Wei Xiang's short-sightedness. If she had no education, how could she ever succeed by working outside
As a rural person at the bottom of society, the only way out is to study hard, which is what the primary school principal has repeatedly emphasized.
Without education, even if you enter a big city, won't you just be able to work as a bricklayer or a nanny
Later, Juanxiang really joined the nanny business, and Wei Juan became more convinced that studying was the only way out.
Unfortunately, Juanxiang’s prediction came true later, and her parents were indeed heartless.
Want to go to college? No way.
One year after Wei Juan left the Wei family and went to the Zhou family, the younger sister and the older sister went to the Zhou family to see her once.
That year, Wei Juan had already given birth to a child.
The first time she saw Wei Juan, Wei Xiang could hardly believe her eyes.
The girl is obviously not even 20 years old, but she is already a mother. The youthful brightness of the past is long gone.
Is that still the sister I once admired
My sister was working hard in the fields. Her face was dark and rough, and her clothes were wrinkled.
She was hunching her back, digging sweet potatoes in the soil. From a distance, she looked like a middle-aged woman.
She doesn't look like the academically gifted sister she is familiar with at all.
When her younger sister saw her, she got so angry that she scolded her for being stupid.
Her best years of youth were wasted in the Zhou family. It was obvious that the Zhou family was taking advantage of her!
How could she be so stupid!
My little sister's eyes were full of anger at her for not fighting back.
Over the years, Juanxiang has seen some of the world outside. In her sister's situation, she will definitely only do things that benefit others.
Wei Juan was extremely angry at the time, and of course she said all kinds of nasty things.
'You are so capable, why can you only be someone else's babysitter!
Being a babysitter is the most menial job, you are worse than me!'
Wei Xiang was also angry and started fighting with Wei Juan in the field. Fortunately, her eldest sister was there and persuaded the two sisters to stop.
Wei Xiang was still cursing when she left. She wanted to see what good outcome would come out of her silly sister. She would probably be abandoned by the man.
To Wei Juan, it sounded like her younger sister was cursing her.
From then on, Juanxiang never went to Zhou's house again, and Wei Juan also acted as if she had never had a sister.
The two sisters haven't been in touch for several years.
"She is now in Haicheng, and has settled down. She has even bought two houses." Wei Qiang continued, "In fact, she often mentions you. She said that she actually misses you very much.
My little sister has that kind of temper, so don't be angry with her anymore."
Bai Chen nodded, not angry with his younger sister at all.
To be honest, my younger sister was right to scold Wei Juan. If she had scolded Wei Juan soberly at that time, perhaps there would not have been a tragedy later.
But at that time, Wei Juan had already fallen into the love net that Zhou Jianlin had set up for her, and she couldn't get out for a while.
The two brothers chatted for a while and then said goodbye reluctantly.
After graduating from university, Wei Qiang came to the provincial capital, which is the closest metropolis to his hometown.
Over the years, his job has been unstable, his major is not suitable for him, and the university he graduated from is too ordinary, which are his shortcomings in finding a job.
Later, Wei Qiang simply started learning advertising art, throwing away everything he had learned before. After working for a few years, he saved some money and opened his own store.
After earning some money, I mortgaged a small apartment in the provincial capital and settled down.
He said that if his sister didn't have a job now, she could come to his shop to learn and he could teach her personally.
Bai Chen declined, saying that he had already found a job, so he didn't force it.
Two years ago, he started dating a girlfriend. Judging from the photos, she was quite attractive. Unfortunately, she had a bad life. When she was fifteen, her parents died unexpectedly, and she became an orphan.
With the help of her fellow villagers, she finished college.
Originally, she wanted to work hard and repay those who had helped her, but she suddenly developed acute uremia.
It's just one bad luck after another.
After she passed away, Wei Qiang never found a girlfriend again, saying that he had not yet gotten over the shadow of the past.
Wait a few years and look again.
Bai Chen had a very good impression of Wei Juan's brother and thought he was a good man who valued friendship and loyalty.
From now on, the two siblings can move around more often in the provincial capital, and Dongdong will have another relative to love him, which will be more beneficial to his growth.
After all, there are always drawbacks for a single mother living with her son.
A son’s physical and mental development cannot be separated from the guidance of male figures.
Bai Chen went through all the members of the Wei family. The sisters seemed to be good, but the parents were really hard to like.
Wei Juan's father is the village party secretary. He has some education, but he is a pedant and has very stubborn feudal ideas.
His belief is that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent, and that there is no need for women to read so many books.
No matter how high your cultural level is, in the end you still have to return to your family, have children and raise them, right
Furthermore, girls will eventually get married, and once they get married they belong to someone else’s family. Is it necessary for him to spend a huge amount of money to support a daughter
Wei Juan's mother was extremely biased. It was said that when her first child was a girl, she was so upset that she didn't eat for three days.
Later, when she gave birth to her second child, a son, she straightened her back.
Later, the third and fourth children became dispensable to her.
Having a child brings everything.
Even though my younger sister was the youngest daughter, she did not receive any preferential treatment in the Wei family, so she wanted to run away.
Children who grow up in such families have some psychological problems to a certain extent.
But none of them grew crooked, which is really rare.
Bai Chen really planned to meet such parents and have a good talk with them.
