Tang Shichu quickly took out the diapers. Mother Tang was about to change little brother Tang in the living room with a loving look on her face. Tang Shichu was stunned: "Mom, why don't you take my brother back to the bathroom and change him?"
Mother Tang said nonchalantly: "No, the child's daddy is very clean. What does it matter if you change it in the living room? There are no outsiders anyway."
Tang Shichu:...
She didn't want to quarrel with Mama Tang, who was full of motherly love, so she said, "Dad should be getting off work soon. I'll go cook first." After that, she quickly fled the living room.
As a child, the original owner really has no right to interfere with her parents' decision to have a second child, so Tang Shichu will not make a fuss with her parents like the original owner. She calmly accepts the fact that she has a younger brother, but if she wants her It was impossible to take care of her younger brother without any regrets. She was not a good person anyway.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Tang's father finally got off work. He slumped on the sofa with a tired look. But when he saw Tang's mother coming over with her son in her arms, his face suddenly filled with a smile and said: "Let me take a look." Is your son good today? No matter how hard it is for dad to work outside, when he comes home and sees his little baby, all the hard work will be gone. My baby boy is really my panacea."
When Mrs. Tang heard what he said, she said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about in front of your children?"
"I'm not talking nonsense. When I thought about having a precious son at home, I immediately became very motivated and worked extremely hard!" Tang's father retorted, then lowered his head to tease Tang.
When Tang Shichu heard these words from her parents in the kitchen, she felt completely unmoved. They were not her real parents. How could she have so much emotion to be jealous of a little baby?
"The meal is ready." Tang Shichu brought out the prepared meal, and the family quickly started eating.
At the dinner table, Tang's father, who had finished teasing his son, began to brainwash Tang Shichu again, telling her to spend more time with her brother at home, and that they would support each other in the future. Tang's mother immediately followed and said The younger brother is so cute and interesting. As long as she takes good care of him as a sister, when he grows up, he will repay her sister...
Tang Shichu didn't retort blindly, and talked to them in a perfunctory way. Anyway, she didn't intend to become Voldemort. No matter how they tried to brainwash her, it wouldn't work.
Seeing that she had no objection, Father Tang and Mother Tang thought that she had sincerely accepted the younger brother and would take good care of him as they said, so they were very happy and praised their daughter repeatedly for being sensible and filial. Compared with other families who clamored to throw away her younger brother. , the older children killed are much better...
This pair of confident parents did not know that their daughter, who they regarded as filial and sensible, only turned a deaf ear to their words. Therefore, after the meal, the couple happily played with their son again.
In the days that followed, Tang’s mother wanted her daughter to take more care of her son, in the name of cultivating the relationship between the siblings. Tang Shichu made excuses and calmly refused, either doing housework or doing homework— —My original major was an English major, but I decided to take the English test this semester as an excuse.
This finally got rid of Tang's mother's many actions to train her to be a devil, so Tang Shichu wouldn't be too bored.
But when it was time for the Chinese New Year, the relatives of the seven aunts and eight aunts gathered together, and they couldn't help but talk about Tang Shichu's new baby brother, asking Tang Shichu to take more care of his brother, and not to be as ignorant as before, and said that his parents were both As she gets older, she, as a sister, must take on the responsibilities of a sister...
When Tang Shichu listened, her head was so big that she wanted to use the rag on the table to gag their mouths, but she held back, because if she refuted, it would attract more endless reprimands, and the thoughts of these relatives had already been Stereotypes, it is natural for them to favor boys over girls; it is natural for a sister to take care of her younger brother and give everything for her younger brother. If any sister dares to resist, the whole family will besiege you and angrily scold you for how dare you do this. Such a rebellious idea?
Tang Shichu was not afraid of these people, but she was tired of this trouble. Those tough people who wanted to forcefully instill into her the zombie-like decadent feudal concepts of the previous dynasty made her involuntarily disgusted. She just wanted to endure this moment to avoid future troubles. It's impossible for them to monitor whether she will take care of her brother anyway.
As for finding out that she doesn't want to pay attention to her brother in the future, will he bother her again? It was already too late, she had already run away.
Yes, although Tang Shichu would not fall out with Tang's father and Tang's mother like the original owner, he would not obediently serve as the nanny reserve they expected.
She planned to go back to school early after the Chinese New Year and find some part-time jobs to earn money to pay tuition and support herself. Since her original major was an English major, she thought it would be easy to find a part-time job as a translator.
So after finally getting through this year and the constant bombardment from these relatives, Tang Shichu packed his luggage and told his father and mother that he was going back to school.
Mother Tang asked in shock: "Why did you go so early? It's just the eighth day of the Lunar New Year."
Tang Shichu replied: "Mom, I have to go back in advance to prepare for the exam, and I also want to see if there are any part-time jobs in school that are suitable for me. I want to work-study. After all, I have a younger brother at home, so I have more places to spend money..."
When Tang's mother heard what she said, she suddenly felt awkward on her face, and then said to Tang Shichu with a smile: "Sure enough, you will be sensible after having a younger brother. You know how difficult it is for your parents. The money at home is indeed not enough now. Your father The salary is not high, and your brother still has to drink milk powder and use diapers, so money is really tight for a while."
Tang Shichu said very understandingly: "Mom, I understand. You have raised me to adulthood and you have fulfilled your responsibilities as parents. I earn my own tuition and living expenses. You can just take care of your brother."
Tang's father was very touched when he heard that his daughter was so considerate and considerate of her parents. He looked at Tang Shichu and said with emotion: "As expected, I have grown up and know how difficult it is for parents. You have to go to school outside and have to work part-time. When making money, you must pay attention to your body and don't get exhausted, otherwise your parents will worry."
He looked at his daughter with concern, but he said so nice things, but did not mention money at all. It seemed that he planned not to give any money to Tang Shichu.
If he really cares about his daughter, it won't be just in words. Of course, he can also say that he is powerless and can only take care of his brother, and his daughter will have to rely on herself.
Tang Shichu did not expose his superficial concern. The less she spends her family's money now, the easier it will be to break away from her family in the future.
Even if Father and Mother Tang want to use the excuse of raising her up and providing her with education in the future to force her to become a supporter, it will not be convincing. After all, it is an obligation to raise a child to adulthood and provide her with nine years of education. It is also an obligation, and if Tang Shichu is responsible for the cost of going to college, then all she will need to pay back in the future is the contribution of her father and mother during the three years of high school.
Of course, Tang Shichu would not have made it clear to them that he could still support them in old age, but he could not just help them raise their son.
