Little One Tears the Villain’s Script

Apprenticeship Gift (2)

Teacher Tang had a good relationship with their family. During New Year or other festivals, they would exchange greetings and sometimes gifts.

“It’s not a thank you gift. Teacher Tang said that I can send Xiaoman to class when I have the time. We haven’t officially enrolled at school or paid the tuition, so we can’t accept his kindness for anything. We didn’t have the opportunity when your sister was around, not that it’s Xiaoman’s turn, we have to do things properly. In the old days, apprentices would kowtow to the master they’re learning from, but we don’t do that kind of thing anymore. We’re more civilized now and don’t do that kind of old tradition.”

Jiang Xing finally understood what was happening and couldn’t help glancing at Jiang Xiaoman and sighing. “Why am I not a bit more like Big Sister?”

Teacher Tang was also like this back then and was especially fond of Jiang Yue.

Jiang Xiumei kicked him angrily, “Yes, why aren’t you more like your sister? I think you’re exactly like your dad!”

“Maybe it’s exactly like you.” Jiang Xing said in a low voice.

“Begging for a beating!” Jiang Xiumei was very angry and wanted to pick up a broom and beat him up.

Jiang Xiaoman blinked her eyes when she heard what they were saying, and suddenly felt a little sad.

She had not had a mother ever since she was small, and was raised by her Grandma and Uncle. She never asked why, because without a concept of what a mother was, she thought that Grandma was also pretty good.

Even though Grandma was fierce, she loved her very much. She would not beat her if she weren’t being naughty, while Uncle would get beaten up much more often.

What a mother could do, Grandma could also do, so Jiang Xiaoman never felt that not having a mother was a particularly sad thing.

After being bonded with the system, later on, Jiang Xiaoman thought about it even less.

When Grandma couldn’t look after her, the system could accompany her, they were inseparable like a body and its shadow. The system could answer whatever question she asked and could fulfill most of her wishes. Jiang Xiaoman felt that even if she had a mother, it wouldn’t be much different than the system.

But when she heard Grandma and Uncle talk about her mother today, their proud and longing tone made her realize that her mother should be a very amazing person, even smarter than her.

Jiang Xiaoman suddenly felt that her mother should be one very warm and beautiful existence.

She kind of wanted to have a mother.

The system suddenly said, “Host, you don’t have to feel sad. Your real parents are still waiting for you at home.”

Jiang Xiaoman ignored it and was still very depressed.

She thought that the biological parents the system mentioned were not good. Otherwise, how come they still hadn’t come to find her yet?

They were not as good as Grandma and Uncle. At least when they ate, they would always leave her the good parts.

“As long as the host works hard to complete the tasks, you can be reunited with your parents as soon as possible.” The system continued trying to guide her.

Jiang Xiaoman snorted and whispered, “This wasn’t what you said last time.”

“……?” What did it say last time?

“Last time you said that as long as I complete the tasks well, I can finish the upgrade as soon as possible and return to fight for the family wealth. ”

…The system shut up.

Jiang Xiaoman wiped her eyes and softly sobbed, “I don’t want to fight for wealth, I just want my parents.”

Jiang Xiaoman cried, so Jiang Xiumei and Jiang Xing stopped and looked at her.

“Xiaoman, why are you crying?”

“Wu wu wuu…” Jiang Xiaoman’s face was full of tears, “I want Mom and Dad.”

Jiang Xiumei’s face changed and she stopped talking about Jiang Yue. She picked Jiang Xiaoman up and coaxed her.

Coaxing the child was easy. Jiang Xiumei rubbed her head and said, “Go to Teacher Tang’s house with Uncle.”

Jiang Xiaoman nodded obediently.

Teacher Tang lived in the school dormitory, and his wife took care of his meals and daily needs. His board and lodging were all done at the school. When Jiang Xing brought Jiang Xiaoman over, he was surprised. When he saw the chicken with its feathers plucked that Jiang Xing was holding, he guessed what was going on.
