System: The Path of a Mortal Being Stronger Through Being a Mother
Chapter 58 The Mother of Unfilial Sons Part 58
Although Wang Shu and his wife were driven away, it did not affect the liveliness of the New Year's Eve dinner.
This year, sitting with her are two sons, two daughters, three children, and a daughter-in-law. They are a long-lasting family. The food is delicious, and the mother and children are loving and filial. If the original owner was here, she would be very pleased with this scene.
Unfortunately, the person sitting here is a soul from another world. People feel the loneliest when there are many people around. This can probably describe Lin Miao's mood.
After dinner, several of her children said they wanted to keep watch all night, so she gave each of them one or two taels of silver as New Year's money, and each of the younger children a small silver ingot of one penny as New Year's money. She also gave some money to Zhou Niangzi, Tian Ergui and his wife as rewards, then said she was tired and went back to her room.
No one else noticed the loneliness on Lin Miao's face, and they were all happily waiting for the New Year to come.
Lin Miao ignored Wang Hai's family. This family tried their best to please her today, so she just watched them perform. She didn't drive them out because she took the mission into consideration, but they didn't want to feel comfortable. They had to suffer. They could see but couldn't touch.
Wang Xiaocao was indeed more considerate. She noticed that although her mother had a smile on her face, she was not happy, and thought that her mother was thinking about her father again.
Although Dad was not very kind to Mom and the children at that time, and was only best to our oldest brother Wang Shan and oldest sister Wang Xiaohua, Mom would still miss him and feel sad every New Year during the years when Dad was away. She understood and she conceived.
Lin Miao: ??? Who would have thought that old wall lamp, she still remembered that he had beaten the original owner, she didn’t dig up his grave because she was too lazy to do anything.
Although the countryside is poor, children still like to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Not only can they eat delicious food that they can't eat at other times, but they can also set off firecrackers when the New Year arrives.
When the sound of firecrackers was heard outside, Lin Miao opened the gate and followed the children to the front door to watch them set off firecrackers.
As the saying goes, the sound of firecrackers marks the end of a new year. The haze in her heart has dissipated a lot. After a good sleep, it is another new year.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there was an endless stream of people paying New Year's greetings. Lin Miao asked Wang Sen to prepare a lot of copper coins tied with red ropes. Every child who came would receive a penny, plus a handful of dried fruits. The ropes not only looked good, but also prevented the children from swallowing and getting their throats stuck, which could cause danger.
For ancestor worship and the like, Wang Sen only needs to prepare the offerings and take them to the Wang Family Ancestral Hall. Women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall.
The lively first day of the New Year was over, and the second day was the day for the daughters to return home. Both of her daughters lived in her parents' home, so there was not much to prepare. Lin Miao gave each of them a pair of silver earrings and a pair of silver bracelets, weighing a total of 4 taels and 2 qian. Including the labor cost, the total cost was 4 taels and 4 qian of silver.
Get whatever Wang Xiaocao and Wang Xiaoli like. They have never worn these things since they were little. The reason they didn't starve to death was because the original owner was capable. Now they not only have jewelry, but also a lot of pearl flowers to wear.
Lin Miao just didn't like silver jewelry in her original world, so she made herself an ancient plain gold bracelet. Now she has a space bracelet on one hand that looks like silver and is not conspicuous at all.
When needed, Lin Miao would use a concealment talisman to hide it, like the time in the bandits' village. This space bracelet itself had no hiding function.
The New Year was lively and bustling, and on the third day of the New Year, Wang Xiaoli's man finally showed up.
I haven't had time to ask Wang Xiaoli about her plans these past two days. The girl is too busy celebrating the New Year and hasn't said anything. I don't know if she has thought about it carefully. Lin Miao doesn't ask or worry about it.
As an adult, you are responsible for your own life.
It was only when Gao Siqiang entered the village that he realized that his mother-in-law's family had become wealthy and were no longer as poor as before.
His family was from the next town and they ran a grocery store, with decent business. The reason why Wang Xiaoli was bullied by the Gao family was because her family was poor.
Gao's mother has always been dissatisfied with finding a country girl as her daughter-in-law.
Gao Siqiang is the youngest son in the family. He has been spoiled by his mother since he was young and he doesn't worry about family life.
Lin Miao looked at this boy and felt quite displeased. What kind of person is this?
He has a creamy appearance and spends his days standing behind his mother and brother, eating and waiting to die. He has never thought about the fact that his father died early. Although his mother is the head of the family now, who can he rely on when the old lady is gone in a few years?
How to arrange your life?
Rely on your brother?
How could he not be so naive? If his mother was gone, the family would surely be divided and everyone would have their own family. How long could his brother still take care of him?
Lin Miao looked at him as he bowed and apologized, but ignored him and told him to talk to Wang Xiaoli.
After some time, Wang Xiaoli came to find Lin Miao with red eyes.
Lin Miao sipped her tea and waited for her to speak.
Wang Xiaoli held it in for a long time, then said with a choking voice: "Mom, I want to separate from Siqiang and live on my own."
Lin Miao did not object, but just asked her: "Well, although the parents are still here, they will not split up the family, but if you want to split up the family, although it is not easy, we can also find a way. The key point is how do you plan to live after the split up? In addition to a grocery store, their family also has land. How much money can you give him?"
Wang Xiaoli's eyes were confused, revealing a clear sense of stupidity.
Lin Miao turned her eyes to Gao Siqiang. Gao Siqiang's eyes were filled with the same innocent light as Wang Xiaoli's.
Lin Miao.......
Lin Miao: "So, are you two planning to live on starvation? Are you planning to live on water?"
Wang Xiaoli and Gao Siqiang blushed at the same time: "Mom..."
Lin Miao..., no, why are you blushing?
Wang Xiaoli said timidly: "Then can't we live at home?"
Lin Miao.....I am totally speechless.
Do you see the words "big victim" written on my face?
She said coldly, "No."
She doesn't mind the money, but more people means trouble.
And, why?
She could help her as a mother, and she also had some responsibilities as the original owner when she got married, but she couldn't support her.
Wang Xiaoli was anxious. She had been so comfortable at home these days, so she certainly didn’t want to leave: “Mom, but, but, isn’t my sister at home? Why can’t I do that?”
Lin Miao sneered, "Yes, your sister, she lives at home, but she is divorced, and she is so filial, can you compare? She is not a young lady at home, look at how much work she does every day?"
Wang Xiaoli was not convinced: "Then I am in confinement, right? After I finish confinement, I can do chores like my second sister, and I can be filial."
Lin Miao emphasized again: "She's divorced, understand? I raise my own daughter, how can I raise a son-in-law? Why, he wants to change his surname to Wang? I don't want to change it to Wang, I have a son, Wang Sen listens to me, can run errands for me, and take care of me in the future. What do you take advantage of? And you."
She pointed at Gao Siqiang and said, "What can you do? What can you do?"
Just a few words made Gao Siqiang blush with shame.
Wang Xiaoli was not angry. In fact, she knew that her idea was unreliable and probably would not work. But she would feel unwilling if she did not mention it. Now, she did not know what to do. It seemed that the man she found was useless?
