Chapter 137 Brother Chapter 137: Know yourself and your enemy and you will never be in danger of a hundred battles

He skillfully picked up the grate and put it into the pot, then placed the bowls of meat on the grate and covered the pot with the lid.

When Mrs. Liu saw it, she took a lot of firewood and stuffed it into the bottom of the pot, and the fire at the bottom of the pot burned even more intensely.

Xiao Xi squatted next to Mrs. Liu and said curiously: "Mom, tell me about your past."

After hearing this, Ms. Liu lowered her head and laughed bitterly at herself: "Damn, I was very stupid before."

There are some things that she cannot understand even now.

Why can some people disregard family affection for the sake of profit and treat feelings as a joke?

Compared with money, feelings are ultimately lighter in weight.

Thinking of this, Ms. Liu shook her head helplessly, and the slightly raised corners of her mouth seemed to contain countless bitterness and weathered vicissitudes.

Xiao Xi shook Ms. Liu's arm and said in a coquettish voice: "Mom, just tell me, I want to hear about grandma and a few aunts."

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. She didn't know the relationship between her mothers, aunts and grandma, and she didn't know what kind of attitude she would use to face these people in the future.

Of the two people here today, the one who can talk is my eldest sister, and the one who is more sarcastic is my second sister. The eldest sister is sweet-talking and secretive, while the second sister is a bit stupid. She talks without thinking and has a bad heart. She has not been favored at home since she was a child, and she has always been

I am jealous of me. It was not my intention to marry into the Zhang family. I have someone I like, but my second sister has been tossing in the middle. Before I got married, the second sister instigated my mother to accept the Zhang family’s betrothal gift and use it to give me money.

My brother is engaged."

Mrs. Liu smiled, raised her hand to rub her daughter's head, and said with a smile: "Mom used to be stupid and stupid, do you still want to listen to Xi'er?"

"My mother is the fifth in the Liu family. She has 11 brothers and sisters. Only five of them survived. Four sisters in the front, six sisters in the back, and one brother. However, it is difficult to raise too many children. Except for my brother, the others in the back are

Several of the girls starved to death because of their young age.

"You have to listen, of course you have to listen, and I'm not stupid, I'm very smart. I must have believed in those people before, so I was taken advantage of by those people. However, many people are like this. Who hasn't encountered this in their life?"

It’s not too late to recognize the true face of those people. We should be grateful that we have seen the true face of some people. It would be sad if we could not recognize the true face of some people for the rest of our lives."

After hearing this, Mrs. Liu smiled sincerely and touched her daughter's head: "Want to hear what happened when Mom was a daughter?"

Xiao Xi nodded: "Xi'er wants to hear about my mother, grandma, and several sisters."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Liu showed a half-smiling sarcasm and bitterness: "I wanted to break off the engagement, but my mother used the bride price for my younger brother's engagement, and our Liu family couldn't afford the few taels of silver for the engagement to break off the engagement. Everyone in the family wanted to break off the engagement."

Forcing me to marry the Zhang family, your grandma also said: 'If you want to marry someone else, you can, as long as you pay back the Zhang family's gift money, you can marry whoever you want.' But how can I, a girl, get so much money?

, and the man I like, his family is even poorer, and he can't raise the money for the gift."

Speaking of this, Ms. Liu shed a line of pure tears. After all, the love between two people was not worth the words of her parents who ordered her to be a matchmaker.

When she disagreed, everyone in the family scolded her, scolded her as a white-eyed wolf, scolded her for getting older and getting stiffer, saying that they had raised her for more than ten years, but now when the family was in trouble and needed her, she didn't want to stand up.

.

You can break off the engagement if you want, just hand over the money spent on raising her for more than ten years and the Zhang family's betrothal gift, and the Liu family will have nothing to do with her from now on.
