Chapter 237 Rebirth in the 70s 2
Chapter 237 Rebirth in the 70s 2
After separating from Aunt Chen, Jiayue went into her own room.
Next, it’s time for Aunt Chen to perform.
As far as I can remember, Aunt Chen’s husband and the original owner’s father were colleagues. They were at the same level and did the same job.
If she remembered correctly, the original owner's father said during dinner that he would be evaluating his professional title recently and his salary might increase.
Since there are interests involved, Aunt Chen will definitely be proactive, but will it harm her father's interests?
Anyway, she doesn’t get to spend her salary, so it’s better if she doesn’t get the evaluation!
Not long after she came back, her stepmother and brother came back. Seeing that she was awake, her brother Xu Yaodang started yelling at her: "Xu Jiayue, now that you're awake, hurry up and cook. I'm starving."
Upon hearing this, the stepmother glared at her son and said, "Don't talk about death. It's unlucky."
After that, she looked at Jiayue with a smile and said in a gentle tone: "When did Jiayue wake up?"
"I've been awake for a while."
"Your brother is hungry, and your dad will be off work soon. Mom's cooking skills are not as good as yours, so you should cook."
What this means is, hurry up and cook.
Jiayue lowered her head, just like the original owner in her memory, lowered her head, said nothing, and went to the kitchen to cook silently.
The Xu family's house is neither big nor small. This house belonged to the original owner's grandfather. At that time, the family was well off and had three large rooms. Later, it was divided into four rooms, one for Xu's father and stepmother, one for his younger brother, one for his stepsister, and one for her.
There is also a kitchen.
After the stepsister got married, her room was separated again. Her room was only big enough for a small bed and a small cabinet, and people couldn't even open it.
It is said that the separated room will be used for my brother's future children.
I don’t know how long it will take for my ten-year-old child to get married and have children.
The kitchen was much bigger than her little cubicle.
She could cook, but she was used to a life of luxury in her previous life, so she was not used to it at first. However, this was normal, and she didn't want to improve her cooking skills.
She started to play around in the kitchen, and the smell that came out was naturally fragrant, but she was sorry about the salt, her hands were shaking and she accidentally put too much salt.
She was still in the kitchen when she heard her stepmother's voice outside.
"Lao Xu is back, Jiayue is in the kitchen!"
Hearing this, Xu Jiancheng said calmly: "I said she was pretending. She survived even without being sent to the hospital. Children will not become useful without being beaten. We can't spoil them..."
"What you said makes sense. Jiayue is a sensible child and will definitely understand your painstaking efforts."
……
Jiayue listened and felt cold all over. She knew that this was the emotion left over from the original owner.
To be honest, if a person lives in an environment full of violence, verbal suppression, hypocrisy... since childhood, even if he does not die, he is very likely to become depressed.
The blow from Xu Jiancheng was the cause of the original owner's death. It is very likely that the original owner had lost the will to survive. She didn't want to live, or she didn't know what hope there was in living.
Thinking of this, Jiayue lowered her head and inadvertently "forgot" that she had already put salt in the pot, so she put it again.
Not long after, she came out of the kitchen: "The meal is ready."
Xu Jiancheng said impatiently: "The meal is ready, why don't you bring it out? I'm tired after a day's work, do you really want me to bring it to you?"
When Jiayue heard this, violent emotions grew wildly in her heart. She reminded herself that this was a society under the law and she could not kill anyone. She could not kill anyone.
He’s going to choke someone to death later!
"I'll get it right away."
After saying that, Jiayue went back into the kitchen and brought the food to the table.
Xu Jiancheng spoke again, in a gentle tone: "Mother of my child, Yao Dang, it's time to eat."
"coming."
After the three of them sat down, they started eating without waiting for Jiayue to sit down.
Xu Yaodang loves food. He took the first bite of the dish and just as it entered his mouth, he spat it out: "It's so salty! Ugh... Ugh..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jiancheng and his stepmother had already put the food into their mouths, but their mouths tasted so salty and bitter that they spat it out.
Xu Jiancheng glared at Jiayue and slammed the table with his big hand: "How did you cook such a salty meal? How can anyone eat it?"
Jiayue lowered her head, looking like she had been scolded to the point of not daring to speak. What she was thinking was that the beasts did not deserve to eat proper meals, and it was her kindness that she did not add any ingredients to the food.
Xu Yaodang pointed at Jiayue and complained: "Dad, he did it on purpose. He made the meal so unpalatable. Dad, beat her, beat her to death..."
Xu Jiancheng had a bad temper to begin with, and when he heard what his beloved son said, his hands began to itch. He then raised his hand and was about to slap her on the head, not caring at all about the wound on her head.
She quickly covered her head and started to run out, shouting: "Dad, I was wrong, please don't hit me, I was wrong, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made the food so salty, I didn't mean to, I just had a severe headache and added more salt, Dad, please don't hit me..."
He ran out, shouting loudly.
Basically, everyone knows exactly who has problems in the compound.
Hearing Jiayue's cry for help, everyone came out to watch the fun, and then saw Jiayue "fleeing" everywhere. Combined with what she said, people also remembered that Aunt Chen had been helping with publicity for half a day.
Uncle Wang stood up.
"Jiancheng, it's just a meal, the child didn't do it on purpose, how can you hit the child? Jiayue still has a wound on her head, why don't you take her to the hospital to have a look, and let the child rest? She cooked with injuries, and you are still nitpicking. Let me tell you, child abuse is not allowed in our compound."
Others echoed.
"Yes, Lao Xu, you can't hit the child. Jiayue still has a wound on her head!"
……
Everyone was talking at once. Even though Xu Jiancheng wanted to beat Jiayue to death, he didn't dare to do anything at this moment.
The house she lived in belonged to her ex-father-in-law and mother-in-law. His ex-wife passed away, leaving behind their only daughter. No matter how excessive he behaved in private, it would be fine as long as no one knew about it. But he would never dare to abuse her openly.
Jiayue lowered her head, a hint of sarcasm flashing in her eyes, but no one saw it.
Just wait, you bully, this is just the beginning.
But revenge would have to wait. She had to solve her work problems quickly, otherwise, that bastard Xu Jiancheng might try to kill her.
It is definitely not easy to say that work is difficult, but it is also easy to say that it is easy. As long as you spend the right money and find the right people, work is not a problem.
Money makes the world go round. In this era, money is not so easy to use, but also not so useless.
In a word, in one sentence, you still have to make money.
Xu Jiancheng gave Jiayue a threatening look, which frightened Jiayue so much that she lowered her head and couldn't help shaking.
Then he received a look of unkind condemnation.
Finally, Xu Jiancheng promised that Jiayue would not be allowed to work recently and would take good care of her injuries, and only then was she let go.
After re-entering the house, Xu Jiancheng said in a bad tone: "You are good at pretending to be pitiful."
Jiayue said aggrievedly: "I didn't, I didn't mean it, I was really scared, wuwuwu..."
Xu Jiancheng had a headache and yelled at her: "Stop crying, it gives me a headache. Mother, hurry up and clean up the food. If Jiayue can't even cook a good meal, then don't eat."
The stepmother advised: "How can you embarrass the child? Jiayue didn't do it on purpose."
"She did it on purpose. When I told him not to eat, I told her not to eat. Hurry up, she's starving."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away."
Then, the stepmother looked at Jiayue with disapproval: "Your father just works too hard, he is not targeting you on purpose, don't take it to heart."
Jiayue didn't say anything, lowered her head, went straight into her own cubicle, and closed the door.
Xu Jiancheng's complaining voice came from outside the door: "Look at her, what a mess she is. She dares to act out with me. I spoil her."
Then the stepmother's voice came: "You are still a child, you don't understand things, you will be fine when you grow up."
……
As they talked, Jiayue lay on the bed, ready to sleep.
