Chapter 204 Hidden Memories 3
She was dirty and her trouser legs were too long and hung at her feet.
"Where have you been?" Grandma waved, "Sit down and eat."
Xiaojiu's dull eyes slowly fell on the table, and his throat visibly slid.
"...No, I'm not hungry."
Liu Qin stopped glaring and said happily, "She must have eaten outside. Let's eat. Duoxian, come over and eat quickly. My son is exhausted today."
Anfeng picked up the wine cup in front of him and took a sip, as if he was drinking some fine liquor.
He couldn't wait to pick up the small piece of dried fish and put it in his mouth, squinting his eyes and enjoying it.
Liu Qin was afraid that Andoxian would not get any food, so he kept putting food in front of him.
Grandma looked back at Xiaojiu who was huddled in the corner and said in a strong voice: "Xiaojiu, come and eat!"
Everyone at the table was stunned.
"Don't you even listen to what I say? Come here!"
Xiaojiu raised her head slowly. Hunger made her head a little dizzy. After she came to her senses, she stood up with the help of the wall. Despite the pressure, she walked slowly to her grandmother's side and sat down.
Grandma reached out and touched her stomach. It was so dry and shriveled. It didn’t look like she had eaten anything at all.
She suppressed her anger, stood up and took a small portion of the food in front of Andoxian.
"Eat. No one will dare to say anything to you with grandma here."
Grandma's words were meaningful, and Liu Qin could naturally hear it.
She looked at the man who was busy eating and drinking, and tactfully swallowed back what she wanted to say.
The little dimple sat beside her grandma, eating the hard-earned food in small bites.
She didn't know what happened at home, but found out a few days later that her grandmother was no longer at work.
Those who go out to work become mothers.
The atmosphere at home began to become tense, and my parents surrounded my younger brother more exaggeratedly than usual, until one night, my younger brother put his hands on his hips and announced.
"I passed the test!"
The family was immediately filled with joy. Even the father, who never praised anyone, said that the child came to repay his gratitude and that it was his blessing.
Xiaojiu was afraid of being compared, so she huddled in a corner and prayed that no one would notice her.
Looking at my younger brother who was surrounded in the middle, I felt a little envious.
An Feng raised his hands above his head, "I never thought that I would have the opportunity to be a third-class citizen in this life. It is really a blessing from God!"
An Duoxian reminded: "Dad, it's me, not you. You can only be fourth-class."
"Fourth grade... Fourth grade is fine! That's better than sixth grade! When can I upgrade my grade?"
For this family that has been unable to make ends meet for the rest of their lives, upgrading their citizenship status is like pie in the sky, and they certainly hope it will be implemented as soon as possible.
So as to completely get rid of the status of sixth-class citizen.
An Duoxian looked around and said deliberately, "Then here comes the problem. The school only gave me two places... I think they should be given to my parents. After all, they love me very much."
An Feng: "Good son! You are worthy of being your father's good boy! I love you for a good reason."
Liu Qin was so moved that she burst into tears. "Mom knew that you are the only one we can count on in this family!"
The three of them were having a great time together, hugging each other and crying.
The grandmother next to her: “…”
The expression is extremely complex.
This is... click on her?
"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing." Andoxian let go of her hand, "Mom, our house is too far from the school now, and we are not allowed to have too much authority. We have to move downstairs. It just so happens that I can rent a house as a student, and the rent can be cheaper."
"Move, move?" Liu Qin was stunned. "How many contribution points will that require?!"
Andoxian frowned.
An Feng was also unhappy: "What are you talking about? The children's schooling is the most important thing. We rent a house here and we rent a house downstairs. It just costs a little more. What are you afraid of?!"
Liu Qin shrank back at the scolding, but still mustered up the courage to say, "Then I'm worried that I don't have enough contribution points. Even if it's cheaper, can it be cheaper than this?"
"You want to be beaten, don't you? You say something against me? I'm telling you now, no matter what, just do as the child asks and move! If your contribution is not enough, you go and think of a way, don't tell me, I don't have any tricks."
After saying this, An Feng lay down on the bed, spread out his limbs, and ignored everything.
"Then where can I go—"
"Mom, please think of a solution. I have passed the assessment. I can't be rejected because of the house issue, right?"
Liu Qin gritted her teeth and said, "Don't worry, Mom will definitely let you go to school! Let Mom think of a way..."
Her eyes moved around the house and suddenly fell on Xiaojiu.
Grandma's heart skipped a beat and she stretched out her hand to stop him: "How dare you!"
As a woman, she naturally knew what Liu Qin was planning. It was important to contribute more money to school, but she must not cheat on him with wine!
"Mom, you just heard it, didn't you? Duoxian's school asked him to move downstairs. I have used up all my contribution points. What do you think we should do? If you have a solution, that's fine too."
Andoxian was already angry because his grandmother didn't favor him, and now she was stopping him from going to school, which made him even more unhappy.
"Grandma, I really don't understand. What's so great about my sister that you have to protect her? She can't even get a fart out of her even if you beat her with three sticks. She's also wasting the family's food. I'm much more useful than her and have a better future. Why can't you figure it out, grandma?"
Facing her grandson's accusations, the grandmother had no choice but to tell the truth: "You have your mother who loves you, and your father who doesn't care about you at all. What about your sister? She is either beaten or scolded, and she can't even eat.
"You are from the same mother. Look at your size and your sister's size. She is two years older than you, but she looks five years younger than you! If I hadn't kept an eye on her, would she have survived until now?"
An Duoxian wanted to argue, but was stopped by Liu Qin.
"Stop talking. In your grandma's eyes, whatever mom does is wrong. She doesn't think about the fact that a girl will always belong to someone else. When she gets married, will she be able to take care of her parents' home?"
"Liu Qin, what are you talking about? Aren't you also a girl? When you went back to your parents' home, did I ever stop you?"
An Duoxian couldn't stand it anymore and yelled, "Stop arguing! Mom, since grandma loves my sister, let her take care of her. The three of us will live downstairs! If the contribution points are really not enough, I'll go to the school to borrow some from the teacher!"
Liu Qin turned around and said, "It is a foregone conclusion that Duoxian will go to school. We absolutely cannot support Xiaojiu. We only need one promising child in the family. No one can afford to support more."
She said it very bluntly.
Grandma gasped and called out to Anfeng, "Look at what your wife is saying! What do you mean you don't want to support me anymore?"
An Feng sat up and spread his hands helplessly: "Mom, I mean the same thing as her. You see, I don't have a long-term job. The family is now relying on Liu Qin to earn contribution points. Duo Xian has a promising future. I can only take care of my son first.
"As for Xiaojiu, you can either go to someone else's house to be a daughter-in-law, or it depends on your own luck. Come on, make your own choice, or you will blame me as a father for being partial in the future."
Liu Qin was anxious, "Dad, that's not what you said at that time!"
