"Sister, I just saw grandma stuffed some money into your pocket. How much was that? Mom also gave you a thousand. I really envy you." Jiang Lu said while keeping her eyes on the handkerchief that Grandma Jiang had just given her.

Jiang Xue put the handkerchief containing the money into her pocket and picked up the book to continue reading.

"Sister, when you make money, can you give me an MP3 player when you come back for the New Year? Many of my friends have them, but my mom won't buy one for me." Jiang Lu came over, staring at where Jiang Xue put the money, and said in a flattering tone.

"You're jealous, aren't you? In three or four years, you can graduate from junior high school, or you can go out to work like me without graduating from junior high school. Mom loves you so much, she will definitely give you more money than I do."

"I don't want to go out to work. My mom said that I have to study hard, go to college, and then work in an office." Jiang Lu said with disdain.

"You are still my sister, you are so stingy. And grandma is so partial to me." Jiang Xue was so angry that she laughed. She actually heard the word partiality from Jiang Lu's mouth.

"Yeah, go and complain to your mother and let her beat me up." Jiang Xue's words stopped Jiang Lu, who had been planning to go and complain. The scene of her sister killing a chicken two days ago was still vivid in her mind, and she was afraid that Jiang Xue would retaliate against her if she went.

"Hmph." With a disdainful tone, he went back to his bed and prepared to go to sleep.

Jiang Xue also put down her book and prepared to go to bed. She had originally planned to put the money in her schoolbag, but then she remembered that the money was lost in her previous life. She gave Jiang Lu a warning look, put the money under her pillow in front of her, turned off the lights and went to sleep.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Lu sneaked to Jiang Xue's bedside, stretched out her hand to touch the handkerchief wrapped with money on the side of the pillow, and adjusted herself to the light in the room. The moonlight outside shone into the room, and Jiang Lu realized that her sister, who she thought was asleep and breathing regularly, was now looking at her with wide eyes.

She tried to pull her hand back quickly, but Jiang Xue grabbed it with great force.

Jiang Lu was startled and her hand was grabbed again, and she screamed in fear.

In the middle of the night, the scream was particularly piercing.

The light in the next room was turned on, and after a while footsteps were heard. Jiang's father and mother pushed the door open and turned on the light in their room.

Jiang Xue also let go, and Jiang Lu hugged her wrist which was pinched so hard that it hurt, and started crying.

"What's going on, Xiaoxue, did you bully your sister?" Jiang's father asked.

"Show mom, what's wrong with your hand? Why are you pinching your sister's hand?" Jiang's mother spoke softly to Jiang Lu, and immediately changed her expression to her.

Jiang Xue sat up from the bed, looked at Jiang Lu and said, "You should ask your precious daughter about this. Why did she stand in front of my bed in the middle of the night instead of sleeping? She even touched under my pillow. I thought it was a ghost."

"I'm just curious about how much money grandma secretly gave you. I want to see how much it is. By the way, Mom, grandma came over yesterday and secretly gave money to my sister." Jiang Lu felt a little guilty at first, but when she thought of her purpose, she immediately complained to Jiang's mother.

"Did your grandma give you money? Show me how much it is."

"No need to look, two hundred. If you don't believe me, you can go ask my grandma."

"Since your grandma gave you two hundred, then you should return two hundred to me for the one thousand I gave you."

"Sure, I'll give it to you. All of it." She took out the money from under the pillow and threw it on the ground. She then ran to her schoolbag and threw the 1000 yuan that Jiang's mother had given her before into her.

"I'll give you the money back. I don't want to go out to work at such a young age anyway."

"Since you gave birth to me, it is your responsibility to pay for my education and provide me with food and drink before I turn 18. You owe me that."

"If you don't want to pay my tuition and deduct my living expenses, I will go to the police station to sue you. If the police station doesn't care, I will go to the Women's Federation, find reporters from the newspaper, and go to the vegetable market where you sell vegetables and ask everyone to help me get a good justice. Why did you give birth to a child if you don't raise it? Since you gave birth to me, it is your obligation to raise me." After Jiang Xue finished speaking, the three people present instantly lost their previous momentum.

"How did you become like this, kid?" Jiang Haiyang asked a little angrily.

Jiang Xue's quietness these two days made them forget that she had gone crazy and killed chickens two days ago.

And now her expression was exactly the same as it was that afternoon.

Jiang's father and mother were not sure whether she would go crazy again and pick up a knife or a sickle to kill something again.

"If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. You've become so capable that you can't say a word. What are you looking at in the middle of the night? What does the amount have to do with you? What's wrong with you in the middle of the night? Just go to sleep!" Jiang's mother patted Jiang Lu lightly, pretended to be calm and said those words just now, then pulled Jiang Haiyang away.

There were only two people left in the room. Jiang Xue glanced at Jiang Lu and smiled sarcastically.

"Pick up the money and turn off the lights." Jiang Lu didn't want to move, but she didn't dare to disobey. She rubbed her still painful wrist, picked up the money obediently, put it next to Jiang Xue's schoolbag, turned off the lights, and returned to her bed.

In the next room, Jiang Haiyang and Liu Yan were lying on the bed and couldn't fall asleep again for a while.

"How come your eldest daughter suddenly becomes a different person? She goes crazy all the time and is scary." Jiang's mother said with a lingering fear.

"The child is grown up now, you should be more careful and don't be so obviously partial to him. Also, you can't hit the child casually when he is grown up, and you should be more careful when you speak to him."

"Can you blame me for being partial? You saw it too. Although she is my daughter, look how close she is to me. She is worthy of being raised by your mother. Her crazy energy is exactly the same as your mother's." Jiang's mother felt a little aggrieved while speaking.

"But you're right. I have to be careful. Girls grow up and will talk about their husbands in a few years. Now she's working outside. It's really heartbreaking. If she finds a strange man and runs away with him, then I'll have raised my daughter for nothing."

"Should I say something soft to comfort her tomorrow? No, I can't afford to give up. You should comfort her tomorrow."

"Did you listen to me? You're like a pig. You fell asleep so quickly." Jiang's mother wanted to say something but got no response. She pushed Jiang's father angrily. Seeing that Jiang Haiyang didn't wake up, Jiang's mother covered herself with the quilt angrily. After a while, Jiang's mother's breathing gradually stabilized.

Father Jiang opened his eyes, looked at Mother Jiang, sighed, turned sideways and continued to close his eyes.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Jiang Xue was woken up by her father.

After waking up and washing up, Jiang's mother had already prepared breakfast.

I put two poached eggs on top of the noodles.

I cooked seven or eight hard-boiled eggs and told her to eat them on the way because the weather was hot and if she couldn't finish them, she could share them with others to prevent them from going bad.

Then she helped her fill her water bag with water and the only pair of mesh sneakers she could wear out, which had been cleaned two days ago. Jiang's mother tied the shoelaces and installed the insoles, running around. She also generously gave her several dozen yuan in change and asked her to keep the whole money.

Jiang Xue enjoyed it with peace of mind, that's just how her mother was.

She can also show maternal love if she has a purpose.

In her previous life, she had graduated and made money, and she was always so attentive when we occasionally interacted.

If you really live together, your true nature will be revealed in less than two days.

If it goes as she wishes, it's fine. But if it doesn't, she will cry and make a fuss.
