248 – Petty Ghost (小气鬼)
Jing Ming Kai had an attitude of taking things for granted. Thinking of what happened with today’s new toys, he was really unwilling. It was obviously something for him, but Jing Yun Zhao actually took it all away in the end, so petty!
“Mom will buy you one later, but today’s all because of you, if you hadn’t made so much trouble just to see her bag…” Wang Xin Fang was upset. She turned around and opened the door again, entering the room Jing Xiu was locked in.
“Mom…” Jing Xiu’s expression was full of caution.
On her face was a red mark. It could be seen how hard she was hit before.
Wang Xin Fang took a look outside, and when she saw the other two children playing on their own, she relaxed. Then, she started to ask, “What do you think you were talking about just now? An outsider like her is being protected by you? Has Mom raised you for nothing?!”
It was fine to think about Jing Yun Zhao, but she kept having the feeling that this daughter of hers knew something.
Jing Xiu’s expression turned into one of panic as she shook her head like a rattler, “Mom, I’m wrong…”
“Of course you are wrong! I don’t know what evil I did in my past life to give birth to all of you useless girls, you’re all money black holes!1 Let me tell you, your oldest sister is related to whether or not our family can construct a large house, and maybe you can even continue to attend school, but if you are not sensible, and you make us lose our gold mine, you’ll see how I’ll take care of you!” Wang Xinfang warned.
Hearing this, Jing Xiu started panicking and trembling.
Her tears fell to the ground as she felt scared and panicked, but even more so, she felt conflicted.。
Although I don’t know exactly what Father and Mother wanted to do, I could clearly tell that what they were doing wasn’t right. Moreover, Big Sis wasn’t happy when she recognized our family. She clearly isn’t part of our family, yet she still has to suffer like me, it’s not fair for her.
Wang Xin Fang saw her daughter’s appearance looking like a deflated balloon and felt relieved.
That year, Wang Xin Fang eagerly awaited the birth of her child, Jing Xiu, but in the end, she resented it so much.
When she married into the Jing Family, she couldn’t get pregnant even after three to four years. The pressure caused her to have several breakdowns and her neighbours all looked at her with disdain to the point where she didn’t even dare to go out. However, her mother-in-law also contributed to her suffering. She would always nag and torture her with the word ‘grandson’. In the end, she got pregnant after many difficulties and was expecting it to be a boy. She thought she could finally relax and enjoy life, but who knew she would give birth to a daughter?
The word disappointment wasn’t even enough to express her feelings at the time. If her mother-in-law hadn’t thrown that child away, she herself would’ve gone crazy and strangled the child.
At the time, her husband found the child with no signs of life and buried the child in the mountains, but her only reaction was a sigh of relief. This gave her the idea that with the death of her eldest daughter, her bad luck would finally end, and she would be able to give birth to several boys in a row.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before she became pregnant again. This time she even prepared a name for her “son”, even the surrounding people all said it would be a son, but alas it was a girl again!
At that time, her mother-in-law had already passed away, so Jing Xiu was able to live.
Afterwards, she gave birth to Jing Ling, then finally Jing Ming Kai.
The suffering she endured all those years could not be expressed with just a few words.
Therefore, Jing Ming Kai was her life, whereas Jing Xiu and Jing Ling were the debt collector ghost looking for her. They were her enemies in her previous life who were specifically reborn just to piss her off. She thanked God that her eldest daughter wasn’t here anymore, because if she was like Jing Yun Zhao, whether she could live till now was not certain
Jing Xiu lowered her head even further, but she could still perceive her mother’s unloving gaze, causing her to be scared.
“CRY CRY CRY! All you know how to do is to cry. You’ve ruined our family’s fortune with your bad luck!” Wang Xin Fang scolded and smacked Jing Xiu on the temple viciously.2
