System: The Path of a Mortal Being Stronger Through Being a Mother
Chapter 65 My Mother is a Taoist Priest Part 1
The original owner, Lin Miao, was busy cooking. The kitchen was stuffy and she was sweating all over. Lin Miao's complexion, which had just improved a little, began to deteriorate again.
The eldest daughter-in-law, Fang, and the second daughter-in-law, Zhang, were sitting in the shade of the trees in the yard to enjoy the cool air, while Tian's second wife was helplessly playing with a few children in the yard.
The two daughters-in-law no longer had the respect they had shown in front of Lin Miao, and their faces showed a domineering tone.
Wang Xiaocao accompanied her mother to cook angrily, and tried to persuade her: "Mom, why did you let them come again? Why don't you hate them for how they treated you in the past?"
"Even if you let them come to your house, can't you be more firm and let them do some housework? You can't wait for them as an old man. Wait until the third brother comes back and see if he is angry with you."
Lin Miao: "Girl, I know you have a grudge against your eldest brother. When you got married, it was all because of your mother's incompetence, not your eldest brother's fault. Besides, your second brother just likes to borrow some money, but isn't that also the hardship you have experienced since childhood? Can mother still be fussy about her own child?"
Wang Xiaocao said angrily: "You care about your son and grandson, but do they care about you?"
Lin Miao slapped her daughter and said, "You are getting too arrogant. Forget about them. What kind of person do you want to find? I will find one for you."
Wang Xiaocao turned around angrily and went back to her room. Her mother was like this again. She was so tired.
The eldest brother and the second younger brother originally looked a bit like sons, and the two sisters-in-law did not dare to act like a spoiled child in front of their mother.
But suddenly, my mother started to soften her heart again. These men became more and more tough from Gong Jin, and they wanted to eat her up.
She really wished her mother would give them a beating like she used to!
However, the mother is still the same, and the strength is still there, but she has no principles. She loves her daughter and wants to marry her off.
She forgot that she once told herself that as long as she lived comfortably, it didn't matter whether she got married or not.
Besides, women no longer marry and are no longer subject to heavy taxes. If you have land and shops, why should you get married?
Is she afraid that sleeping until she wakes up naturally is too comfortable, or is she afraid that she can't spend all her money and has to ask others to help her spend it? Anyway, she won't get married.
The eldest brother and the second younger brother watched their mother dying of illness but did not spend money to hire a doctor. Now, seeing that their lives have improved, they have come to stick with them.
If this continues, I will have to move out with my daughter. Anyway, I have the rent for the shop and the land, and I can still maintain a relatively comfortable life by making some embroidery. Why bother with this?
Keep your own property so that if your mother becomes really poor in the future, you can support her yourself.
Tian Ergui followed his third brother and worked outside, while Tian Tian took Xiaonan to learn needlework and also had to take care of his third brother's wife who had just given birth.
Tian Ersao was asked to help look after the children of the first and second wives. What could she do when her mother was busy alone? She had to help even though she was angry.
At this time, Wang Sen came back and saw that his eldest brother's family and his second brother's several people were all at home, waiting for their mother to cook like a boss. He was so angry that he drove them out with a fierce face.
His mother gave him the power of housekeeper, but now she is back to her old ways, weak and vulnerable. If he is not more powerful, this little bit of family property will not be enough for them to plunder.
Recently, my mother's temper has become gentler again, so they have lost the little filial piety they had shown before and are competing with each other to scheme against her.
When the eldest brother Wang Hai and the second brother Wang Shu saw that the Third King of Hell had returned, they didn't want to cause trouble, so they quickly ran away with their children and wives. Humph, they would come back after the Third King left. Anyway, I love them. Even this house, shop and fields are all under the Third King. I was very confused in the past few years.
Wang Sen: I’m so tired... From now on, just make sure mom has good food and drink, and don’t let her manage the money. It’s a good thing that he took most of the money from her early on.
Wang Sen felt a little sad, as if he had lost something.
Lin Miao: The third son is back. This son was corrupted by that woman and no longer listens to her. But she is also afraid of him. She just wants all her children to be around and filial to her. Am I wrong?
But, she cannot mess with the third brother. If he is not there to keep her in check, the eldest and second brothers will not be able to coax her like this and will definitely bully her.
She quickly came out with a smile and said, "Son, you're back. You must be tired. Come into the house and take a rest. I'll get you some water to wash and make you something delicious later."
Wang Sen said tiredly: "Mom, did you give the money I gave you for living expenses to your eldest and second brothers?"
Lin Miao lowered her head, as if she had made a mistake, and stammered, "Son, your elder and second brothers are having a hard time, how can I, as a mother, let my own children suffer..."
Wang Sen didn't want to say anything more, he had said enough. If his elder brother and second brother's spouses were good people, could he be so stingy as to not help his brothers?
But during this period of time, not to mention the things, just the silver, they have taken more than two hundred taels from my mother.
If he hadn't acted early, all the money my mother had would have been taken away.
However, they only want to get all the money for themselves. What about my family and my mother? Won't they skin me alive?
Oh, mother...
Lin Miao looked at Wang Sen and Xiao Cao and felt a little sad. They had lived there for more than three years and they were her beloved children.
However, everyone has their own destiny, so it’s up to you.
When I left, I thought of the original owner's character, made preparations for Wang Sen and Wang Xiaocao, and also gave them a shot of prevention.
Otherwise, who knows what kind of life Lin Miao would have. He is cowardly, confused, unable to distinguish between good and bad people, and not afraid of hurting his eldest daughter and youngest son.
I have done my best. This is the life she chose, and she has to bear the consequences herself.
Lin Miao said to the system: "Enter the next world."
After a moment's delay, Lin Miao lost consciousness.
"Mom, mom, wake up, wuwuwu..."
Lin Miao had a headache, wondering where she was this time? Was it on the train? This hum hum hum…
She slowly opened her eyes.
The dilapidated roof...
Oh, poor, she could see it, it’s not a train, it’s not modern, there shouldn’t be such shabby houses in modern times, right?
A soft body suddenly fell on top of her, and she almost held back the breath she had just breathed.
Lin Miao: .....Burp, burp, burp... (You go down)
Zhang Qinqin finally heard her mother's hiccups and realized that she had almost crushed her mother to death. She got up in panic and started to sob again: "Mom, it's all my fault. It's all my fault. Please don't be angry with me."
As he spoke, he caressed Lin Miao's chest.
Lin Miao: Even though we are both women, you can't just touch me casually, are you polite...
Lin Miao looked embarrassed.
She quickly grabbed the other person's hand and said, "Hey, kid, go make me something to eat. I need to take a rest first. I have a headache after waking up."
Zhang Qinqin finally confirmed that her mother was really awake. She burst into tears again: "Wow, mother, you take a rest first. I'll go make porridge for you. It will be ready in a while. Please don't be angry with me."
Lin Miao: I am tired. I am really hungry. My stomach is empty. I don’t know how many days I haven’t eaten. Why can I only drink porridge when I encounter a new world? “Child, please close the door for me. I want to lie down peacefully.”
Zhang Qinqin thought that her mother was acting a little strange today. Why did she keep chasing her away? Maybe she was upset and wanted to be alone?
She knew she was not smart and stopped guessing. She tucked the quilt in for Lin Miao, walked out quietly and closed the door.
Lin Miao quickly pulled the quilt to her abdomen. The smell was really too strong, moldy and sour. When it got closer to her neck, the smell was too intoxicating.
She closed her eyes and started calling the system.
System: Honey, here I come. Do you want to transfer the original owner’s memory?
Lin Miao confirmed: Yes.
System: Transfer the original owner's memory.
A series of memories came flooding back, shocking Lin Miao so much that she felt dizzy.
The original owner, Lin Dahua, is 47 years old this year. He does not have the ability to see ghosts or practice martial arts, but in order to make a living, he calls himself a Taoist priest and lives a life of pretending to be a god to cheat some money to support his family.
She was originally a good woman, but her husband Zhang Daqiang died early, leaving her with two sons and two daughters to raise alone, so she embarked on this path of making money to support her family.
But matters concerning ghosts and gods should not be taken lightly.
Using ghosts and gods to cheat will bring disaster to future generations.
Her later situation was so terrible that it was hard to say whether she had offended the gods or ghosts.
After Lin Miao read the original owner's memories, she was speechless. What a fucked up life this was.
She was so immersed in the memories of the original owner that she forgot about her rumbling stomach.
At this time, Zhang Qinqin pushed the door and walked in, holding a bowl of hot porridge in her hand.
Only then did Lin Miao remember that she was hungry.
There is food in her space, but there are people around her, so this is the only way for now.
She saw Zhang Qinqin drooling but trying hard to control it, and thought she was hungry too. She heard the rumbling of Zhang Qinqin's stomach...
Lin Miao said: "Er Ya, you haven't eaten yet, go get a bowl, let's eat together."
Zhang Qinqin waved her hands quickly: "No need, mother, you eat, I'm not hungry."
Although he said he was not hungry, he kept swallowing his saliva.
Lin Miaohu said with a stern face: "Why, in these two days, you don't listen to your mother anymore?......"
Zhang Qinqin saw that her mother was angry, and she was so scared that she quickly said, "Mom, don't be angry, I'll go get the bowl now."
Having said that, he ran away.
Lin Miao shook her head and looked at the bowl of coarse-grain porridge, gaining a deeper understanding of the poverty of this family.
To her, the original owner's memories were like watching a movie. It was hard for her to empathize with them. She had to take it slow and not be impatient.
The mother and daughter shared a bowl of porridge, and then Lin Miao asked Zhang Qinqin to do her own thing while she continued to communicate with the system.
Lin Miao: "System, do I need to maintain the original owner's Taoist character?"
System: "Please continue the original owner's Taoist character. The system will give you the basic immortal cultivation technique. You must study it carefully. After this world, the price of buying talismans will double."
Lin Miao: I am tired. Can she learn these techniques? Is it so difficult to be lazy? She has a lot of gold and silver in her space, but why does the price increase make people so unhappy? She must learn. If she succeeds, she will not only save money for herself, but also benefit Zhen Xin.
She first took out one pill each of the Power Pill and the Swiftness Pill and ate them.
Feeling the revival of her body's energy, she thought for a moment, took out a small ginseng from the space, tore off a ginseng beard and chewed it. She dug this ginseng using her space collection ability, so it was very clean, without any dirt, and did not need to be washed.
Lin Miao took out a jade slip the size of a fingernail from the system space. Is this the low-level cultivation technique?
I suspect the system is messing with me...
