These few words were spoken very calmly, but every word penetrated into the hearts of others.
Bai Xiumei frowned, and it took a while before she moved her crutches: "Mingjiao, what are you thinking?"
"I... I..." Cheng Mingjiao opened her mouth and looked into Gu Xuejiao's eyes, but she was speechless for a while.
"Mingjiao definitely didn't do it on purpose!" Liu Yazhen defended.
"Mingjiao, do you realize that you were wrong?" Bai Xiumei still looked at Cheng Mingjiao.
Cheng Mingjiao nodded hastily.
Bai Xiumei smiled slightly, looking very loving: "If you know what you're wrong, you can correct it, but you still have to apologize to your aunt."
Cheng Mingjiao was stunned for a moment, then turned her head stiffly to look at Li Sitong: "Auntie... I... I... "
"Mingjiao, you should apologize." Bai Xiumei tightened her cane.
"I'm sorry!" She looked at Li Sitong and spit out three words in a low voice.
Xuejiao always sat there calmly, a sneer gradually emerged from the corner of her mouth.
"Enough!" A female voice suddenly said.
This time everyone was really stunned... It was Li Sitong who made this roar!
Since she married the Cheng family, in addition to scolding Gu Xuejiao, she was a virtuous and kind woman on weekdays.
Li Sitong exhaled slightly to make herself appear calmer. Her original mentality was to reduce the big issues to the small ones, and resolve this matter as soon as possible.
But at that moment, she saw her daughter's sneer.
That kind of indifference.
Li Sitong's heart throbbed, she looked at Cheng Mingjiao: "Mingjiao, you are two months younger than Jiaojiao, but you are already sixteen, and you are not young. You can scold me for me, but you can't speak of my daughter. , she is not wrong, there is no reason to be scolded."
"You're not wrong either." Cheng Shuo said softly, stood up, and took her into his arms.
There were already tears in Li Sitong's eyes, and he looked back at Cheng Shuo with emotion.
Xue Jiao looked at this scene, expressionless.
"She hit me! She hit me!" Cheng Mingjiao's eyes widened, "She hit me and asked me to apologize first? Why are you all protecting her? Why? I'm Cheng!"
"Because you don't respect her mother! Your aunt!" Cheng Shuo put his arms around Li Sitong and looked at Cheng Mingjiao seriously.
She didn't know how that well-behaved and sensible niece became like this
"Apologize!" Cheng Kai became furious.
Cheng Mingjiao gritted her teeth and looked at Bai Xiumei, but the other party didn't speak.
His eyes moved to the old man next to him, who frowned, even with two points of disappointment.
boom…
Cheng Mingjiao's brain seemed to explode, she didn't know how it became like this
Why do these blood relatives want her to apologize to someone named Gu
"You all protect her!" she yelled, and ran out.
"Mingjiao!" Liu Yazhen said anxiously, looking at Li Sitong, "Are you satisfied?"
After she shouted and chased out, the rest were silent for a while.
Li Sitong was stunned.
Bai Xiumei sighed, stepped forward, took Li Sitong's hand, and said softly, "Mingjiao is really ignorant, I don't know what got me excited today, you are her aunt, take care, I know you are a good, good boy ."
Li Sitong has been married to Cheng's family for so many years. She is a second marriage and has children. She has no backing at home. Although Bai Xiumei didn't say anything on her face, Li Sitong knew that the old lady was always dissatisfied.
So she has been cautious all these years, just wanting to have a place in the Cheng family and let those who laughed at her know that she can also live well.
For so many years, this is the rare warmth of the old lady.
Li Sitong was quite moved and shouted, "Mom!"
Bai Xiumei couldn't help nodding her head, with a loving smile: "Good boy, good boy...Zijiao is also a good boy..."
"Ugh... I'm sorry Jiaojiao..." Li Sitong looked up at Xuejiao with a guilty face.
Xue Jiao didn't speak, she lowered her head and looked at one place with her eyes.
…
That night, Bai Xiumei comforted Li Sitong for a long time, which was a rare intimacy between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Li Sitong's originally sad mood has also improved a lot, and the expression on his face has relaxed a little.
Xuejiao didn't speak the whole time, and went back to the room early.
This was the first time she fell on the bed without reading a book, tossing and turning.
Everyone was helping her today, and even her "mother" had a rare outbreak, but for some reason, Xuejiao was not happy, not at all.
After a while, she took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Lin Zhihua...
"I never knew so clearly again that I was really an outsider."
Lin Zhihua replied quickly...
"What's wrong? What happened when you went back?"
Xue Jiao's fingers were slightly stunned. She didn't know when it started. She gradually got in touch with the person on the opposite side, and it seemed that starting today, she even felt that she could tell him anything...
This is... friend
No family... At least, she seems to have friendship...
"Cheng Mingjiao's grandparents came over. They were all asking her to apologize to me. My mother also protected me, but I don't know why... I feel very uncomfortable... "
Lin Zhihua... "What's going on tonight?"
Xuejiao told the process of returning to Old Master Cheng and their departure.
"Lin Zhihua: Cheng Shuo is fair, Cheng Kai asking Cheng Mingjiao to apologize to you is not fair, it is to educate his daughter. Your grandfather is also, but this education is because his own children made mistakes, so education, even if it is not you who beat her, the other party will also Educating Cheng Mingjiao. The old lady is only on your cousin's side. She's a smart person, and she managed it very well tonight. If Cheng Mingjiao didn't cooperate, this matter would have ended."
Xuejiao was stunned, somewhat unable to understand.
In her last life, she was a little girl who just graduated from high school. She couldn't figure it out for a while, old lady... control
Fortunately, Lin Zhihua soon sent another message...
"Your mother's outburst is short-lived. She cares too much about her family and your stepfather. In fact, this outburst is not powerful. But your stepfather is not. Your mother's outburst will touch him. Cheng Mingjiao ran out without remorse, and your grandma only needs If you appease your mother, your mother will be able to appease you and your stepfather, and she will appease the rest of the Cheng family, reluctantly put back the mask that Cheng Mingjiao took off this time, and settle this matter."
"Ok?"
"Lin Zhihua: Your mother will definitely find you tonight."
Xuejiao was stunned, how did he know
Soon, another message was received, Xuejiao read it carefully, and then fell into a daze.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Xuejiao's door rang.
She continued to read without turning her head, and soon the door was pushed open.
"Zijiao..." This was Li Sitong's voice.
Xuejiao didn't move, Li Sitong approached with a glass of milk and smiled shyly: "Zijiao, you were wronged today, rest early and study tomorrow."
"I still have to write a review."
Li Sitong's smile lingered slightly, and after a while, he said softly, "I'm sorry... Mom will never be able to..."
"Really?" Xue Jiao raised her head.
"Really! Mom promises!"
"But I don't believe it," Xue Jiao said softly, "just like you don't believe me."
"No... No..." Li Sitong stammered.
"Mom, you still have an uncle in the Cheng family, but I only have you. Cheng Mingjiao told me to drag the oil bottle, I can bear it, because I am. But it's not okay to slander. Although her surname is Cheng, she can't abuse me at will... and you ." Xuejiao's eyes were slightly moist.
"No! Jiaojiao! You're not a fuel bottle, you're mother's baby! You have a father now, and your Uncle Cheng will protect you. You are the same as Cheng Mingjiao!"
"It's not the same, at least... her mother will protect her." Xue Jiao smiled bitterly, "Mom, I still don't know where I went wrong. Do you know how uncomfortable I was when you hit me today? It's like Betrayed by the whole world, I am the only one, no one cares about me."
"Zijiao!" Li Sitong's tears flowed down instantly.
She knew that she hurt her daughter today, but she didn't expect to hurt her so much!
"Go out, I think I need to calm down." She put her hand on her heart, looking extremely uncomfortable.
"I… "
"go out."
Li Sitong turned around and walked out three steps at a time, and there was a person standing at the door of the opposite room.
She was stunned, and forced a smile: "Mingze... I haven't slept yet..."
"Auntie, you went too far today."
After Cheng Mingze finished speaking, he glanced at the girl with his back to them, sighed slightly, turned around and entered the room, closing the door.
When Li Sitong went back to the room, he cried, and almost immediately burst into tears as soon as he entered.
"Si Tong! Si Tong, what's wrong?" Cheng Shuo anxiously lifted the quilt and walked over.
"I'm sorry Jiaozi! I'm not a good mother!" Li Sitong's emotions burst out in an instant after being appeased by Bai Xiumei in the afternoon, and he cried sadly.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I know you are a good mother, let's apologize to Jiaozi!" Cheng Shuo reassured her.
"Why is Mingjiao being so extreme? How could she be like this..." Li Sitong burst into tears.
"Mingjiao has gone too far this time! This time, she must be made to realize her mistake!"
Cheng Shuo's face became serious, and thinking about the incident in the afternoon, Ming Jiao's words echoed in his heart again.
This matter can not be so simple, otherwise it will be bad for the two children!
He took his phone almost immediately and made a call...
"Akai, bring Mingjiao over tomorrow morning to apologize to Jiaozi! She hasn't apologized to Jiaojia today, this child must be in charge!"
…
Xuejiao was lying on the bed, she couldn't help but took out her mobile phone and turned to the news that Lin Zhihua sent before Li Sitong came in...
"Grandma Cheng Mingjiao will definitely look for your cousin when she goes back today. Tomorrow, your cousin will take the blame and come to apologize honestly. However, you can't let her come over by herself, she must be "passive"."
"So, you have to let your mother know she's wrong, but she'll run away, she won't think it's all her own problem, and it'll be your cousin's fault. Your mother will definitely cry to your stepfather and let him know Her grievance. Then, your stepfather will know that this matter has a great impact, so that your cousin will come to apologize and realize what he has done wrong. "
Lin Zhihua... Is it really right
She said something to her mother just now, will she really go back and cry
Uncle Cheng will also contact Cheng Mingjiao to ask her to come and apologize
Early the next morning, it was just dawn.
"Zijiao, come down quickly, Mingjiao is here." Li Sitong's voice was two points of joy.
She thought that this was mainly Cheng Mingjiao's fault. If Cheng Mingjiao apologized, her daughter would forgive herself, right
Xuejiao walked out slowly, and just reached the stairs, her eyes swept down, her brows furrowed.
Not only Cheng Mingjiao came, but Bai Xiumei also came.
She reached behind her back, took out her phone from her bag, and opened WeChat.
Sure enough, the news of Lin Zhihua has come.
"There are two situations, one is that your grandma came with you, and the other is that your grandma didn't come, did you come?"
"Here." Xue Jiao replied immediately.
Soon, several messages came in a row, Xue Jiao read it carefully, then put away the phone and walked slowly.
"Jiaojiao, have you come down?" Bai Xiumei smiled lovingly, "Ming Jiao said early in the morning that she would come to apologize to you."
Cheng Mingjiao looked up at Xuejiao who was walking down slowly. Anger flashed in her eyes, but she said...
"Cousin, you're awake, I'm here to apologize to you..."
Xue Jiao thought, this Lin Zhihua really guessed everything.
So, she looked at Cheng Mingjiao with a smile on her lips, and walked slowly to the other side.
