Chapter 43: 043 Just the Beginning
林梦以为这就是结束,她的人生会回到以前的轨迹,悄悄地去上学,但她不知道,这只是个开始!
"Are you back?"
Lin's mother's intimacy was too unusual, which made Lin Meng stunned for a long time. When Lin's mother took the travel bag from her hand again, she came back to her senses.
"I'm glad you're back. Mom will make you delicious food tonight. You are a great contributor to our family..."
The nagging words were full of praise, but it pierced Lin Meng's heart again. She said "um" softly as a response, and followed Lin's mother into her room. Lin's mother turned around and brought another fruit plate of fruit, greeting her warmly.
"Are you hungry? Eat some fruit first to fill your stomach!"
She could only nod.
Lin's mother walked out with a smile.
Lin Meng looked at the fresh fruit plate and was stunned!
From childhood to adulthood, she was an outsider in this family, the sinful product of the third party. Lin's mother rarely smiled at her. In the early years, she would beat and scold her at every turn. Later, when Lin Bao's business was prosperous and the family was a little richer, Lin's mother slowly stopped beating and scolding, and tried to move towards being a noble lady, taking a cold approach to Lin Meng.
A week ago, her attitude towards Lin Meng was still indifferent, and sometimes she just didn't exist. So Lin Meng couldn't bear this abnormal enthusiasm. If this way could get Lin's mother's kindness, then she would rather not have it!
Suddenly I felt tired, and lazily looked around. This ten-square-meter space was her little nest. The windows were closed tightly, just like when she left. There was a light dust on the table, visible to the naked eye, announcing that this little nest had been neglected because of the owner's departure. The room was small, but she decorated it little by little. On the wall was a poster of a human-shaped angel girl's heart given by the canteen. On the table was a plastic pen holder she made from a large Coke bottle, with a few plain pencils and ballpoint pens inserted in it. On one side were stacks of reference books she had accumulated since childhood. There were not many, but they were all neatly arranged. The small bed was placed next to the desk, with a bed sheet with small lace, a neatly folded square quilt, and a small pillow covered with a green pillowcase...
All of this was familiar!
Lin Meng smiled faintly, but her eyes were inexplicably sour.
"I'm back..."
She said softly, but she didn't know who she was talking to!
The nest was very quiet, and the outside of the house was a lively world!
"Mom, you really have to make her delicious food?!"
Lin's mother's biological daughter, Lin Zi, pouted at Lin's mother in dissatisfaction. She was one year older than Lin Meng, which meant that when Lin's mother was pregnant with Lin Zi, Lin Bao had another woman outside, and then gave birth to Lin Meng. As for this extra member of the family, under the influence of Lin's mother, Lin Zi disliked Lin Meng since she was a child, and she squeezed her as much as possible. When she was a child, she was beaten and scolded. When she was older and received some education in school, she restrained herself a lot!
This time, Lin Meng was sent out to sell her body, and Lin Zi was not without gloating. The daughter of a bitch should grow up to be a bitch. She naturally thought that Lin Meng should make such a sacrifice. Their family raised Lin Meng so big, so what did it matter if she sacrificed her chastity a little!
Seeing that Lin's mother was so affectionate to Lin Meng, Lin Zi immediately felt jealous.
Lin's mother glanced at her with a reproachful look, "That girl is now worth a different price, and our family will have to rely on her in the future. When you see her in the future, give her a better face and don't be hard on her!"
"How can I!" Lin Zi laughed, and the little eyes that inherited Lin Bao rolled around, with a sly look on her face. "Mom, look at that dead girl carrying a travel bag back, what's in it? Did you open it to have a look!"
"It should be clothes or something! It feels very light to me. Didn't you see that she is wearing new clothes? She must have some clothes to change after a week away!"
"She got a bargain!" Lin Zi's tone was a little sour, revealing jealousy. She just took a look, and the girl's clothes looked really good. At first glance, it must be made of good material. Lin Meng always picked up clothes that Lin Zi had worn, and now she had new clothes that did not belong to Lin Zi, and Lin Zi felt a little unhappy. Then, she thought of the silver on Lin Meng's neck.
"Mom, that girl is wearing something around her neck, probably a necklace!"
Mother Lin immediately turned around, glared at Lin Zi fiercely, and said in a low voice: "Xiaoxia, I warn you, no matter what your sister is wearing, you are not allowed to have those things now. Your father wants to use that girl to make a big business, don't hold your father back!"
Lin Zi curled her lips, "I'm just talking!"
"I don't know you yet!" Mother Lin pointed a finger and tapped Lin Zi's forehead heavily. "If I don't tell you, you will pull the necklace off your sister later!"
Lin Zi flattened her mouth, because she was said right, so she felt a little unhappy!
Seeing her like this, Mother Lin immediately coaxed: "Okay, don't worry about it. When your father's business is big and our family is rich, you can buy whatever you want. Don't be so short-sighted and just stare at the little things on your sister!"
Lin Zi then put away her expression and laughed.
But she was curious, so she walked around the kitchen and headed towards Lin Meng's room. She wanted to see what good things that damn girl had brought back after staying out for a week! Mom said it's not allowed now, but it can always be allowed in the future. When that damn girl loses her usefulness, she can choose these things at will!
. . First published in Xiaoxiang Academy. .
The dinner was very rich, with spicy chicken cubes, boiled fish, cumin beef, braised ham, cabbage and black fungus, sesame oil spinach... It was like a festival, but Lin Meng couldn't eat it.
The whole family was present. At the table, Lin Bao sipped his wine and kept exaggerating: "Meng Meng, I've wronged you this time..."
"Thanks to you, President Rong gave me a good project. Now, Dad has a little reputation in the construction industry..."
"Meng Meng, tell Dad what you want and Dad will buy it for you..."
...
In previous years, Lin Meng wanted to buy a piece of clothing, but now Lin Bao is so generous. It's like being hungry all the time, and then suddenly being given a delicious meal, how can you eat it? ! How can a stomach that is used to clear soup adapt to such greasy fish and meat! Lin Meng's heart ached, she picked at the rice in the bowl, lowered her head, and said "hmm" from time to time, but her eyes couldn't help reddening! Others may have seen it, or they may not have seen it. In short, no one expressed comfort for this.
After finally finishing the rice in the bowl, she silently pushed the chair away and went into her room. It was still bustling outside, but the bustle belonged to them, not hers.
The rain outside had slowed down a bit, and it was raining intermittently, hitting the windows, and adding a hazy glow. The small pot of lily of the valley against the window was quietly blooming, and the white flowers revealed pure thoughts. Lin Meng stared at the lily of the valley, her eyes slowly blurred, and suddenly she remembered Xiao Yi's words, her body tensed, and she quickly reached out to wipe away the wetness.
You shouldn't think about it!
She hadn't read for a long time, she should read more, otherwise she would not be able to keep up with the progress when she returned to school.
She pulled out a chair, turned on the small desk lamp, picked out the first-year mathematics, opened the calculation book, and held a pen in one hand. She began to read quietly, thinking and calculating while reading. Unconsciously, the clock quietly turned to nine o'clock. She pulled out a chair, turned on her door handle, and poked her head out. A small orange light was on in the living room, and the dark was quiet. She dragged her slippers and ran to the bathroom to see that there was no one there. So, she came back, packed her clothes, and planned to take a shower!
The showerhead dripped warm water, and she quietly washed herself in silence. Occasionally, when she touched the blue and purple kiss marks on her body, she always felt a dull pain, and for a moment, her eyes were filled with sour tears!
"Bang, bang, bang--"
Someone was knocking hard on the bathroom door. Lin Meng was startled, and hurriedly turned off the showerhead and shouted hastily. "Someone...someone!"
"I want to go to the toilet!" It was Lin Meng's elder brother Lin Dong, who was 22 years old and had graduated from college for a year. Now he was unemployed at home and followed Lin Bao to do some construction work. This person was not motivated in his studies, and he smoked, drank, and fought all the time. He was not a quiet person since he was a child. Now he has made friends with some ruffians who come in and out of the construction site. He is Lin Bao's right-hand man in removing nail households!
Lin Meng was only halfway through her bath when she heard Lin Dong yelling and got a little anxious.
"Wait a minute, I... I'm taking a bath, I'll be done soon!"
Lin Dong smiled outside, his face full of malice, his eyes stained by alcohol and lust showed a familiar tide of desire. How could he not know that Lin Meng was taking a bath inside, and saying that he needed to go to the toilet was just an excuse.
