Chapter 240: Stepmother is also a mother
Seeing Xiaohua was so happy, Wang scolded her, "Your sister Siyu is not someone that everyone can look up to. The fact that she said this shows that she likes you."
Xiaohua's eyes instantly turned red.
"Thank you, Sister Siyu. I will definitely study hard."
Liu Siyu nodded.
"Okay, I'll start teaching you tomorrow, but I have to be frank with you. If you follow me, you have to follow my rules. No matter what you see or learn from me, you can't tell anyone without my permission, including to your family."
"If you can't control your mouth and say things you shouldn't say outside, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Xiaohua blinked her misty eyes and nodded seriously.
"Don't worry, Sister Siyu. I'm not the kind of person who talks nonsense. If you don't let me ask, I won't ask. I'll remember what you said and I won't talk nonsense outside."
Liu Siyu's lips curled up slightly. This girl is smart and teachable.
As they were talking, Lai Xi suddenly appeared in the yard.
As soon as Wang saw Lai Xi, her happy face instantly darkened.
"What are you still doing here?"
Lai Xi looked at Liu Siyu with an apologetic look on his face, "Can I have a word with you alone?"
Liu Siyu naturally knew what he wanted to say, and immediately stood up and walked out of the yard with Lai Xi.
Directly asked: "Is it almost done over there?"
Lai Xi nodded, "Well, I think..."
"Okay, I'll come tomorrow."
Liu Siyu did not give Lai Xi the chance to continue speaking. Now that things had come to this, there was no point in saying more.
A trace of pain flashed across Lai Xi's eyes, but when he thought of the plans for a few days later, he put away the hurt expression.
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home."
Back in the yard, Liu Siyu continued to work as if nothing had happened.
Wang, however, stammered, as if she had something to say.
When Xiaohua saw this, she thought it was inconvenient for her to be there, so she found an excuse and left tactfully.
Liu Siyu disliked Wang's appearance the most.
Directly said: "Just ask whatever you want to ask. It's not like we just met today."
Wang pulled the corner of her mouth slightly embarrassedly.
"Why did Lai Xi come here today?"
Liu Siyu glanced at Wang. She knew that deep down Wang still hoped that she and Lai Xi could get back together.
But now that things have come to this, reconciliation is absolutely impossible.
Instead of hiding it, it would be better to let Wang give up on it.
"He came to urge me to divorce."
Wang's hands trembled as she rubbed the jelly fruit, and anger suddenly appeared on her brows.
"What? Is he so anxious? Humph, he thinks he is such a hot commodity with his poor family that he will never be able to get out of poverty. Bah, if you leave his old Tian family, I will definitely find you a boy who is 10 times better than him..."
"Wash the old man?"
Liu Siyu interrupted Wang without waiting for her to vent her anger.
When Wang heard this, her eyes suddenly turned red.
He looked at Liu Siyu with hurt eyes.
"Do you still hate your mother?"
Liu Siyu raised her eyebrows. "I can't say I hate it, but I feel a little disappointed every time I think about it."
Wang's slightly red eyes were suddenly filled with tears.
He turned around and raised his hand to try, then spoke after a long while.
"Before, mother was afraid of poverty, and thought that you would be well fed and clothed if you went to a rich family. Mother was wrong, and you blame me, but I have nothing to say. Don't worry, I will never persuade you to give birth to a boy you don't like in the future."
Liu Siyu curled the corners of her mouth. This was exactly what she wanted to hear.
I didn't mean to make Wang angry today. I was mainly worried that Wang would often worry about this matter in the future.
She didn't want to waste her energy and time on these unimportant things.
With this assurance, I will be able to keep my ears clean in the future.
The next morning, Wang got up early and changed into new clothes. As soon as the sun rose, Liu Siyu was also caught up.
Liu Siyu pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Mom, what are you doing up so early?"
Wang picked up the clothes and put them on Liu Siyu as if she was coaxing a child.
"Mom knows you like to sleep in, but today's matter is very important to you. Get up early, eat, and dress up. You must not lose in terms of momentum."
The corners of Liu Siyu's mouth twitched. Why did it make him look like he was going to fight?
Unable to resist Wang's nagging, Liu Siyu became listless.
Just as I was about to wash my face, I saw a lot of food on the table.
I was surprised. What was Wang doing so early in the morning?
Is breakfast really that rich?
Wang didn't care about her surprised expression at all.
He quickly fetched a basin of cold water, put down the cotton cloth, and handed it to Liu Siyu.
"Hurry up and wash your face. Look how many delicious foods your mother prepared for you. You will have more energy after you eat."
Liu Siyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"We're going to resolve this peacefully. Today, we're going to sign the divorce agreement under the witness of both parties, and then get my things back. It's not like we're going to fight..."
"That's hard to say. I heard that vixen lives in his house. If you feel wronged, just slap her. Although there are no adult men in our family, my mother is no pushover. You can go and vent your anger without any worries."
Liu Siyu burst out laughing when she heard this.
"Looking at your posture, people who don't know would think it's you who's getting divorced!"
Wang raised her hand and tapped Liu Siyu hard on the forehead.
"You are still laughing, you are such a heartless girl. Yesterday I told you to call Sihan back, but you refused. However, I have already made an appointment with your Aunt Zheng and Aunt Wu. With them here, I guarantee you will not suffer any loss."
Liu Siyu was shocked.
"When did you go to look for them? If so many people go, I'm afraid that by tomorrow, the whole village will know that I'm divorced."
Wang obviously did not share the same idea as Liu Siyu.
"The villagers will know about your affair sooner or later. Instead of letting everyone talk about you behind your back, why not call a few people and let everyone see the vixen he keeps at home."
"The Tian family kid made the mistake first. You will have no reason to stand firm if you quarrel with the villagers over this matter later."
Liu Siyu didn't expect Wang to think so far ahead.
My heart felt slightly warmed and I thanked him sincerely.
Wang couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, she just felt her throat was stiff and tears were falling down.
"Although I am a late mother, I have watched you grow up. When you were a child, I wiped your poop and peed, and I did everything a mother should do. Now that you have come to this point, it would be a lie to say that I am not sad."
"But I also know that you are a person with your own opinions and don't like me to meddle in your affairs. But I feel really uncomfortable if I can't vent my anger about this matter."
Liu Siyu walked up and hugged Wang, just like she did when she coaxed her mother in her previous life.
He patted Wang's back gently.
"Mom, I know you are doing this for my own good, and I am truly grateful. As long as you don't do anything to make me sad in the future, I will treat you like my own mother for the rest of my life."
Wang's body stiffened.
This was the first time in Liu Siyu's life that he had been so close to her.
This is also the first time I have said such heartwarming words.
While I'm touched, I'd still like to remind you.
"Just accept me in your heart. Don't say this again. Otherwise, your mother will be sad if she hears it."
Liu Siyu thought of Ziyuan and her daughter, and her heart felt cold.
Fortunately, Wang still cares about them, but they have never thought about the adoptive mother who raised Liu Siyu.
Not even a word of it.
I can't help but feel a little sorry for Wang.
"Mom, in my heart, giving birth but not raising a child is worse than not giving birth at all. Since you raised me, I will treat you as my biological mother."
