Double Life: My whole world is you

After Cheng Qiao shouted for help three times, she heard some footsteps. As the footsteps got closer, she pulled Cheng Zhu to her knees, kowtowing as she knelt, "Help! Please stop hitting us, help! Ah! It hurts!"

"What are you doing?" Several uncles in the bay pulled the three people apart. The uncle of the family in front of my uncle is a primary school teacher. He was Cheng Qiao's class teacher in the sixth grade. His words carry a certain weight in the bay. He said with a sullen face, "It's New Year's Day, aren't you going too far? Three adults are beating up two children."

"The two little ones hit me first." The mother said quickly, "They were the first to attack."

"Yes, look at my face." My aunt said, holding her face.

"Uncle Yi." Cheng Qiao cried out, and when everyone looked at her, she said tearfully, "It's all our fault. We were wrong for not having Dad's support, for Mom being sick again, for not coming to their house for New Year's Eve dinner, for not treating them as family..."

"What are you talking about, you little bitch? It's obviously you..." The empress interrupted her loudly and angrily.

"Alright." An elderly grandfather in the bay scolded his mother, "Their family is pitiful enough. As relatives, you don't help them, and you bully them like this. You are simply not human."

Several old ladies in the bay helped Cheng Qiao and Cheng Zhu up, pulled them together, and accused them of being excessive and inhumane.

Cheng Qiao watched everything silently. She remembered that after the quarrel in 2017 in her previous life, Cheng Ma fell ill and she and Cheng Zhu lost their backbone. Cheng Qiao supported the family and took Cheng Ma to the provincial and municipal governments for treatment. Finally, after more than days, Cheng Ma returned to normal. However, when they came back, those people spread rumors that she was a shrew, saying that she and Cheng Zhu had violent tendencies and that she and Cheng Ma were not frugal. Although Cheng Ma went to Wanli to argue with others after she recovered, she still had a preconceived idea about them. At that time, Cheng Qiao was at the age of marriage. Although she didn't care, it would definitely affect her reputation. She didn't prepare to get married until she was years old. That has always been Cheng Ma's heart knot. She regretted accepting those so-called relatives...

Shi Chengqiao saw so many people around her blaming them, she knew she had won. Seeing that her mother and aunt were still arguing with the grandmothers and aunts in the bay, she pulled Chengzhu to stand in the middle and bowed to the elders in the opposite bay, "Thank you grandpa and grandma, uncle and mother, uncle and aunt, brothers and sisters for making the decision for us. Thank you very much!"

After she finished speaking, she turned around again and looked at the so-called relatives who wanted to strip them of their lives. She said calmly, "Although you are our closest relatives after my parents, my father is gone, which cuts off your affection for us. Since you have always hated us so much and have been bullying us openly and secretly since we were young, my brother and I are young, but we also have ambitions. From now on, let's sever our relationship! My father has no brothers."

"You..." The uncle gritted his teeth after hearing her words, "You have to cut off this relationship. Don't count on us if you have any problems in the future."

"Okay! Let's cut off ties from now on. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with us." My aunt also said quickly.

"You saw it, these two little bastards want to sever their relationship." The empress also said, "If anything happens to their family in the future, you must be witnesses and you are not allowed to blame us."

"This..." Everyone looked at the half-grown child and felt a little embarrassed. A grandmother pulled Cheng Qiao and advised, "Child, you should give in. You will still have to rely on them in the future."

Others also echoed. The so-called relatives looked at them proudly after hearing what everyone said. Cheng Qiao smiled sadly and shook her head. [Based on her experience in the past thirty years, people who bully you from the beginning will only bully you more severely in the future.] With tears in her eyes, she said, "Thank you for your kindness, but you can see that this is how they bully us openly. We have been bullied even more secretly since we were young. It's okay. When my father passed away, I was only five years old and my brother was less than two years old. We survived. Now I am fourteen years old and my brother is eleven years old. It's much better now than ten years ago."

If someone tried to persuade him again, Cheng Qiao and his brother would bow again, "Any of you are better to us than those so-called relatives. We are sorry to bother you today. Thank you very much for saving us from the dire situation!"

After she finished speaking, she straightened her messy hair and walked home with her brother the way they came. The crowd made way for them. After walking more than ten steps, she heard Uncle Yi say to the so-called relatives, "Since things have come to this, the child has severed ties with you, and you are not allowed to cause trouble to the child in the future."

"That's right, we will all watch it from now on." The others also echoed.

"Let's go see their mother. She's raising two children alone and she's sick. How pitiful..." an old lady suggested.

A grandmother also said, "I'll go back and get some eggs."

Cheng Qiao led Cheng Zhu, followed by five or six grandmothers and aunts. When they reached the tile kiln, Cheng Qiao stopped. She looked at Cheng Zhu's bleeding mouth and asked with tears in her eyes, "Brother, where else does it hurt besides your face?"

Hearing Cheng Qiao's words, Cheng Zhu's tense nerves snapped. He squatted down and cried silently. Cheng Qiao pulled open the clothes on his back. She looked at his entire back which was covered in bruises. She hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, brother. I still let you get hurt."

"Sister, they beat you too. Are you feeling pain all over your body like us?" Cheng Zhu raised his head and asked with heartache.

"poor child……"

"unacceptable……"

"He's not even a human being..."

"How can an adult bully a child like this, especially his own nephew..."

Several elders helped them up, comforted them while scolding the group of people. After a while, the two stopped crying and walked back home...

I remember that there were few people coming to their house. So many people came this time. Cheng's mother woke up from her deep sleep. She was surprised to see the people coming. She asked everyone to sit down. Cheng Qiao and Cheng Zhu went to the kitchen to pour water for everyone. Several elders exchanged a few words with Cheng's mother. After visiting their impoverished home, they shook their heads and sighed. Cheng's mother smiled all the time. After they left, Cheng's mother got up from the bed and looked at the canned apples and eggs on the table. Cheng's mother asked the two people, "Tell me, what happened?"

"Mom." Cheng Qiao called out softly, not knowing how to start.

Cheng's mother pulled Cheng Zhu, who was hiding with his head tilted to the side, and saw the wound on the corner of his mouth. She asked distressedly, "Did they beat you?"

When Cheng Zhu saw the tears in Cheng's mother's eyes, he quickly said, "Mom, I'm not hurt. I hit him back."
