Anyone could tell that things were not going well at Gao Yuan's family.
She went to college solely because she was the top scorer in the local area and received a lot of bonuses.
But even so, she was still short of money, so the village held a banquet because she was studying in college, and every family donated money.
But there seemed to be a patient at home. When Manshu first saw the plateau, he could smell the medicinal smell on her body.
Either she was taking medicine herself, or she contracted it from taking care of patients for a long time.
Manshu thought that she was quite healthy, but there were patients at home.
"Is there any patient in your family?" Manshu asked.
Gao Yuan did not hide anything: "Yes, my dad broke his leg when he went up the mountain."
"Then it's too difficult for your family." Miao Miao sighed, "My brother and I are the only two children in my family, and my mother often complains that we don't have enough money."
Manshu: "..." You are not very fancy, and you are very different from others.
Manshu remembered someone whose family situation was very similar to Gao Yuan's.
Yang Lili.
Her class teacher, Lao Liu, helped her a lot at the time, but she was not very capable of showing off, so she was eventually dismissed from the school.
It is said that she transferred to another school and then disappeared.
Miao Miao didn't pay attention to these small details at all.
She had already brought the topic to Xi Yue.
"Where are you, Xi Yue? Tell me about your family. When you first came in, we thought you were bringing your aunt to school. You must be someone's daughter!"
"My family, our family's conditions are pretty good, but my parents divorced when I was very young. My mother went abroad and already has a new husband and children."
"My dad is usually very busy, so he found an aunt to take care of me."
"That aunt is still responsible for my studies. Oh, she is now my stepmother."
The dormitory fell silent for a moment.
After saying it out loud, Xi Yue felt even better.
"Why are you so quiet?"
Only then did Miao Miao dare to speak: "I'm sorry, I thought she was your aunt."
Xi Yue sneered: "She's not just my aunt, and the reason why my dad invited her is not only to take care of me, but also to take care of her."
"Why do you want to take care of her?" Miao Miao didn't quite understand. Is there any other origin?
"My father was a soldier and turned into a businessman. Her husband was my father's former comrade in arms."
Xi Yue paused for a moment before continuing: "Later, during a mission, a comrade-in-arms died, and the few of them who survived helped take care of my sister-in-law."
"My dad said it's not easy for someone to take care of a child and work alone, so he asked her to come to my house to take care of me and be my tutor, and her son could also live here."
"She was very smart. She left her son in the countryside with her grandparents and came to play for a few days during the winter and summer vacations. My father treated her son like his own son."
"When I was in junior high school, my dad said that she had been taking care of me. As time passed, there would inevitably be rumors outside, so it would be better to marry her directly."
"Give her a title and a family, and take care of the son left behind by her comrades."
Xi Yue is obviously very resentful towards his father.
"You should have liked that aunt very much at first, right?" Manshu asked suddenly.
If she didn't like it, her father probably wouldn't have married her aunt.
There are many ways to take care of the wives and children of your comrades, and there is no need to sacrifice your own marriage.
What's more, with Xi Yue's appearance, one knows that her father is not bad looking.
That aunt just looks like a gentle little woman, but she may not be as good as Xi Yue's mother.
After all, Xi Yue's father may also be doing it for his daughter.
