Chapter 1996: not to mention
Chapter 1996 No mention
"Yes." Xiao Lishen said: "Dad and uncles really want to go out, but they can't make much money every day. There is a younger brother under me who has been frail and sick since childhood. Even if they make money, they basically give them food. The medicine is gone."
Xiao Manan frowned and said, "You still have a younger brother? How old are you this year?"
"Three years old. Born on the first day of the first lunar month, he is now three years old."
Three years old, no wonder she doesn't know.
Xiao Manan thought for a while, and then asked, "How many brothers and sisters does your father have in total?"
Xiao Lishen said: "As far as I know, there are five in total, Dad, three uncles, and a little aunt, but she died before she grew up."
Xiao Manan frowned, how could there be no her?
Could it be that her parents are always angry with her, and they don't even want to tell the juniors about her existence.
"Then didn't your father tell you that he has a sister?"
Xiao Lishen was startled, as if he had thought of something bad, his whole body began to tremble.
Murong asked: "What's wrong with you? Don't be afraid, we're just asking, it won't hurt you."
Xiao Lishen realized that he was not in Donghai Mansion, patted his chest, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do this, it's really... it's really..."
"What is it?"
Xiao Lishen said: "Let me tell you the truth, I do have an aunt, but my grandparents forbid us to mention her. Every time my daddy whispered to me, he said that the aunt is very good, but she is not there for the time being. Around us. Once my grandma heard it, she was very angry and beat me with a hundred canes, so that I had no food for two days, and I couldn't get out of bed for a long time."
No wonder he had a look of fear on his face just now.
Xiao Manan said with a sad face: "Why doesn't your grandma let you mention your aunt?"
"Grandpa said the aunt was not filial and would not listen to them, let's not mention her, they would be unhappy when we mentioned her."
Xiao Manan lowered his head lonely, his parents still hated her.
She is their biological daughter. As for treating her like an enemy?
It's not that she didn't completely ignore them all these years, and she was also brought back with money.
Murong Xuan said angrily: "Your grandma is too much. How can you treat your own daughter like this."
Murong Kuan also said: "Yes, how can there be such parents in the world!"
Murong Lingran asked again: "In the eyes of your father and your uncles, what kind of person is your aunt?"
Xiao Lishen said: "They said that the aunt was very good and took good care of them when they were young, and the family was able to live a good life because of the aunt, so let's be grateful to the aunt. But grandparents don't like big aunts. Aunt, father and uncles are afraid that we will be punished, so they usually don't let us mention the aunt."
Murong Lingran nodded secretly, thinking that those uncles had conscience.
"But..." Xiao Lishen suddenly thought of something and didn't know whether to say it or not.
Helian Rongjiu asked, "But what? Just say it if you have something to say."
Xiao Lishen said: "Perhaps it has gotten worse over the past few years. Grandpa doesn't know why. Even though the aunt is not around, they seem to hate the aunt very much. Every day, they call the aunt a short-lived ghost. It's like the aunt is no longer around. My father has already said that the good life at home was all because of the aunt."
