Hearing Wang Yue's words, Xiaowo was shocked and his face instantly darkened.
"Before we got married, you promised me that your daughter would not live with us. Why, after only two months of marriage, you want to go back on it?"
Wang Yue looked at the little nest, his eyes full of pleading, he pursed his lips several times, and muttered:
"Xiaowo, I...but, my daughter..."
Xiaowo had a straight face, pointed at his nose with his right index finger, and said sternly:
"Stop it! I know what you want to say. Don't kidnap me with morals.
Yes, I admit that your daughter is pitiful. She lost her mother when she was two years old. You have been busy with work and can't take care of your children. However, you have met a grandma who values boys over girls and cannot get any warmth.
This situation was not caused by me. She had always been like this before I married you, and none of you thought about changing her current situation.
Why should I take over this mess as soon as you and I get married?
I don’t want to be taken advantage of. I tell you Wang Yue, don’t even think about it! "
Wang Yue still refused to give up. He hugged Xiaowu and coaxed her flatteringly:
"Xiaowo, Qiaoqiao is very sensible and won't cause you any trouble. How about I take her over first and you two can try to get along."
Xiaowo pushed him away rudely and said sternly:
"Absolutely impossible! Wang Yue, I'm warning you, don't take your daughter over without permission, otherwise, I will never be done with you!"
The two stood face to face and were in a stalemate.
Wang Yue stared at her and saw her determined face. After being in a stalemate for a long time, he sighed helplessly, turned around, and left the house.
Xiaowo looked at his slumped shoulders and was so cruel that he didn't stop him.
With the "touch" sound of the door closing, Xiaowo also sighed heavily.
Can't blame her for being heartless.
She is only 23 years old this year, and rushing into marriage without being ready for marriage is already tiring for her.
Now, let her get along with a five-year-old girl day and night, becoming a thankless stepmother in the eyes of the world.
She was unwilling and had no confidence.
That is a living person, and you need to spend time taking care of and accompanying him.
If Wang Yue really takes the child to Hangzhou, he is so busy with work, can he be expected?
Huh, what a fool's dream.
In the end, didn't it fall on her?
Every day she has to send her child to school. When the time comes, she has to drop everything and pick her up from school.
Nowadays, schools are so demanding, and even five-year-old children have to be tutored by their parents for homework. In the end, doesn’t she still have to do this hard work?
She only has a junior high school education and a bad tutor. This is not a mistake.
In addition to these, there are also children who have headaches, brain fever, eating, drinking and diarrhea.
Just thinking about it makes my head ache.
Forget it, she didn't dare to try.
It is easy to ask God but difficult to send Him away.
Once you take your child over, if you don't get along with him and want to send him back, it won't be that easy.
No matter whether she does well or badly, or how much she pays, she will end up with nothing good and a bad reputation.
What is she planning?
However, the child's red and swollen face, eyes full of tears, and cries of fear could not disappear from her mind.
Why, why do people with miserable lives always meet together?
Her life is miserable enough.
They met a bastard father who had been beating and scolding the four sisters since childhood, and who only wanted a son.
Now that she finally got rid of him, she met someone with the same fate as her.
A five-year-old girl has been without her mother since she was two years old, and her father only knows how to work. Throwing her into a living environment where anyone can beat her and scold her, what a lot of children...
Xiaowo didn't dare to think about it anymore. He only felt bitter in his heart and tears flowed out.
She viciously wiped away the unfulfilled tears with the back of her hand, but the more she wiped away, the more tears she would get.
That night, Xiaowo lay on the bed and waited for Wang Yue.
He didn't come back until one o'clock in the morning.
She was pretending to be asleep, and when she saw him getting into bed, she turned over and fell asleep.
After that, the two never mentioned the matter again.
In early August, Xiaowo returned to Acropolis to recruit new employees for her housekeeping company.
The five of them, mother and daughter, have taken on so much work recently that they are overwhelmed and need to replenish their manpower as soon as possible.
On the first day after returning to the Acropolis, she couldn't hold it back and went to see Wang Yue's daughter Qiaoqiao first.
The next day, she went to see Xu Zhiyi.
Recently, Octavia was on a business trip, and Xu Zhiyi had been living in Mingzhai.
The selection of teachers within the Education Bureau was postponed to August 10. When Xiaowo came to see her in the afternoon, she was giving a simulated lecture for the selection interview.
When he first entered the living room and saw the scene in front of him, Xiaowo felt envious.
The heat wave was rolling outside, and passers-by were covered in sweat.
In Mingzhai Villa, the central air conditioner is always on, which is extremely cool.
Xu Zhiyi was four months pregnant with twins, and she was already pregnant.
She was wearing a loose cotton dress with excellent texture and a smile. She was standing in front of a special blackboard and was talking about the color matching of watercolor paintings.
Four people sat below, acting as her students, listening carefully to the class.
These four people are Octavia’s parents and grandparents.
Seeing Xiaowu come in, Xu Zhiyi smiled at her and motioned for her to sit down and wait for a while.
Later, the housekeeping aunt brought freshly squeezed watermelon juice to Xiaowo and whispered to her to drink.
Xiaowo picked up the watermelon juice and drank it while listening to the class.
Xu Zhiyi's Mandarin is very standard, and his lectures are very emotional, which makes people feel very comfortable.
She is smiling, calm and serious.
Xiaowo felt that she was shining as she stood there.
It seemed that she was not the only one who felt this way, from the eyes of the four elders, she also saw joy and admiration.
After finishing the theoretical knowledge, Xu Zhiyi began to guide the four "students" in painting.
The four senior students were really painting, very carefully and meticulously.
Before I knew it, I sat in the nest for half an hour and didn't feel bored.
With Xu Zhiyi's "get out of class is over", the simulation class ended.
Immediately, the four elders smiled and applauded in unison, praising her.
"Well said."
"Yeah, pretty good."
"Very vivid."
"In my opinion, my grandson's daughter-in-law has no problem at all with this selection."
Xu Zhiyi suddenly lost her teacher-like appearance in class, hugged Feng Xiaoyu, and asked softly:
"Really? Grandma, am I really good at what I say? Are you kidding me?"
Feng Xiaoyu held her hand with a kind look on her face, "That's really good. I have recorded the lessons for you. You can look back and see for yourself. If you don't believe me, ask your cousin."
Xiaowo stood up, walked over, and said with a smile:
"It's really good. People like me who don't know how to draw are fascinated by it."
Xu Zhiyi smiled like a flower and his eyes were full of joy.
It can be seen that she gets along well with the old people of the Ming family.
The old people knew that the two sisters had not seen each other for a long time, and they must have a lot to say in private, so they took the initiative to avoid it.
Before leaving, Xu Zhiyi repeatedly asked Xu Zhiyi to be careful when walking and not bumping into each other.
She seemed to be used to it. She nodded patiently to them one by one and responded coquettishly:
"I know, don't worry, I will be careful, very careful."
As soon as the old people left, the cousins drank drinks, ate fruits, and chatted affectionately.
After seeing Qiaoqiao, Xiaowo felt confused and conflicted.
She did not ask Xu Hong and her three sisters for their opinions.
She could think of what they would say without opening her mouth.
For her sake, they definitely don't agree with her being cute.
But……
Xiaowo still wants to find someone to talk to.
She told Xu Zhiyi her concerns and wanted to hear her opinion.
