After receiving the assurance of the highest authority in the family, Tian Minyan was immediately deflated like a ball with a hole in it, and collapsed on the ground. At her feet, the worn-out kitchen knife lay there brightly, emitting an eerie cold light.
"Nanny, stop crying, my mother is here."
Luo Shi hugged her daughter and saw the tears on her face. She was so heartbroken that she picked up the hem of her clothes and wiped them for her.
In her previous life, Tian Minyan was an orphan. She was raised by the director of the orphanage and had never enjoyed maternal love. Now, she suddenly had a pair of parents who were so close to each other. However, she was not used to such intimacy and felt something strange on her face.
Only then did I realize that I was crying.
"Good girl." Tian Huairen called out nonchalantly, his face full of anxiety, but he didn't know how to comfort her.
"You damn girl, she's so brave. She dares to take a knife. Let her go. I'll see if she dares to wipe her neck."
Just as the three of them looked happy to have survived the disaster, an inappropriate voice suddenly sounded. Tian Minyan looked over with cold eyes and felt a chill in her heart.
The voice belonged to Mrs. Tian. It turned out that she had not planned to speak when the old man agreed to break off the engagement. She knew that the man in charge of the house was a man, so she did not intend to refute. But after receiving the news from her eldest son,
With a suggestive look, her mind immediately changed.
She had not forgotten what her eldest son had said at the time, that the betrothal gift given by her family was too much, two hundred taels of silver alone, not to mention other pieces of cloth.
To say that two hundred taels is not much money for a wealthy family, but for a banker family, especially a middle- and lower-class family like the Tian family, it is an astronomical sum of money.
Everyone said that Yaoer was a sweetheart, and every family favored Yaoer. However, Mrs. Tian was famous in Yangmei Village for being partial, but she did not favor Yaoer, but her eldest son and two daughters.
Mrs. Tian gave birth to three sons and two daughters in total. Both daughters were married. The eldest daughter married a shopkeeper and lived the life of a wife. She also had a maid to serve her. The second daughter also married a shopkeeper whose family owned a cloth shop.
When I got back to my daughter, I cried to her and told her that I had lost a lot of money because a batch of goods had been sold to Kang, and my life was very tight now. I hinted to her overtly and secretly to get some private help.
If Yan Yatou gets married, with those two hundred taels, not only will her family be able to live well, but she will also be able to support her daughter. The most important thing is that her son's official career will depend on that governor.
No, when she received the boss's look, she changed her face, and her words were harsh and ruthless. In her opinion, Tian Minyan, a money-loser, was born to lose money. After raising her so big, she should make some contributions to the family.
.
Tian Minyan knew the plot of the book "Sorrowful Poor Girl" written by the author of the stepmother. This old lady was the best among the best. There is no best, only the best.
In her previous life, when she was reading a book, she felt ashamed and scolded the old lady and her family at the same time. What kind of author was this? What she wrote was a complete tragedy.
And now, thanks to God's teasing, she has become the tragic heroine in the book. She is expected to follow the plot set by the stepmother? Bah! It's okay if she doesn't know, but she won't reverse this damn fate if she knows?
She can die again.
Thinking of this, Tian Minyan secretly pinched her tender thigh hard and snorted weakly: "Mom, Dad, I'm dizzy, am I going to die?"
It’s called being cruel when you are cruel to yourself, pretending, who can’t do that!
"My poor little girl, mother is going to make some medicine right now. Her father, please take her back and lie down." Upon hearing this, Luo Shi immediately waved to Tian Huairen.
"Why."
Tian Huairen responded, hurriedly bent down, picked up Tian Minyan, and ran out of the main room.
