At this time, the Ji Family was having a really tough time ever since Qiu Chunli was sentenced, and life was quite hard for Ji Linfeng and his two children.
In the past, with the Han Family’s support, they lived quite comfortably. Now, they’ve sold off almost everything at home, and their daughter is recuperating at home, but issues keep cropping up from time to time. On top of that, the anti-rejection medication eats up his entire monthly salary, all of which goes to the hospital.
Now without the Han Family’s help, those who used to curry favor with them couldn’t wait to distance themselves, including their own family, fearing that his family would siphon off their resources.
Even though his job has not been affected, he’s only doing some auxiliary work now. However, as long as the salary isn’t reduced, it’s not a big deal, at least he has more time to take care of the two kids.
Ji Linfeng gently knocked on his daughter’s door: "Xiaowen, it’s time for breakfast."
Ji Xiaowen came out from the room and saw the meal on the table: "The doctor said I should take good care of myself, I used to have an egg every day, now can’t we even afford eggs?"
Ji Linfeng felt ashamed: "In a few days when I get my salary, I’ll buy eggs."
Ji Xiaowen could no longer hold back: "Dad, if I had known this would be the result, I would rather have just waited for death, it’s better than living like this."
After saying that, she turned back to her room, slammed the door, and lay on the bed crying.
She just couldn’t bear it anymore, her life had gone from heaven to hell, not giving her any time to cushion the blow.
A few days ago, she secretly went to find her cousins, but they directly rejected her, wasting her money on travel, making her feel she really couldn’t endure it anymore.
Seeing her sister throw another tantrum, Ji Xiaolei sitting at the table got a bit angry and said, "Sis, you’re so unreasonable, if it weren’t because of you, this family wouldn’t be like this, and here you are, still causing trouble."
Ji Xiaowen heard what her brother said and immediately got up and opened the door: "If they had given me a healthy body, would I have ended up like this?
If mom hadn’t done those bad things, would our uncles and aunt have gone so far to completely sever ties with us?"
As soon as these words were said, the father and son outside the door both looked visibly upset.
All the neighbors passing by outside had a face of enjoying the spectacle, someone whispered: "Ji Xiaowen really takes after her mom, truly selfish."
"What kind of life did they live before, and what kind of life are they living now? It’s no wonder she can’t take it."
"Wasn’t meant to live in luxury, yet insisting on it, what a joke."
"The only ones suffering are Ji Linfeng and Ji Xiaolei."
"Suffering? Didn’t they enjoy the good life for a few years too?"
"Ah, let’s stop talking and get going, or we’ll be late for work again."
Ji Xiaolei, tears in his eyes, saw it was getting late and didn’t bother to eat. He grabbed a mixed-flour bun from the table and headed out.
This summer, he’s been out every day collecting scrap, and his presence is seen at several nearby factories.
Ji Linfeng was deeply hurt by his daughter now. Ever since the incident at home, she blamed everything and everyone, including her parents. But no matter how annoying it was, she was still his daughter, what could he do but endure? This is all a debt.
As for his wife Qiu Chunli, she still dreams that the Han Family will rescue her, no matter how he tells her, it’s like she doesn’t understand, perhaps her mind has been affected, truly leaving him helpless.
