Chapter 236 – My Daughter Will Not Sacrifice Everything For Her Younger Brother (part 8)

Li Su knew that Zhang Yao was an insecure child and had high emotional needs. She didn’t know how to comfort her with words, but she believed that time would tell.

As for the prospect of remarrying, she had been single for so many years. She was very comfortable. She never thought that she needed to get married.

Since Li Su had transmigrated a lot, she had never been troubled by this.

But this time, Li Su had this particular problem.

The original owner was actually very good-looking, otherwise she wouldn’t have attracted that Zhang Wei bastard, and she would not have been able to give birth to a good-looking girl like Zhang Yao. It was just that she had lost her father and mother one after another. She was also scolded by her in-laws for not being able to give birth to a son. Not only did her husband not comfort her, but even abused alcohol and physically abused her, so the original owner had no intention of taking care of herself.

Li Su remembered the original owner. It seemed that after she divorced Zhang Wei, she remarried soon after. The marriage was not bad. Her husband was rich and powerful. Although he was a little old, he was very kind to her. Moreover, her husband had children, so she had no pressure to bear children. She could live a good life. It was just that, without children, the original owner was also quite inferior in the new family.

In addition, the original owner was also selfish, so she would rather take care of and please her children who were not related by blood, rather than take care of her own daughter. When she heard the news that her biological daughter had died, the original owner was also sad, but her sadness only lasted for a moment. She quickly went back to making up the milk powder for her granddaughter.

Now that Li Su had transmigrated over, although she didn’t wear much makeup or dresses herself, her style had changed. She had become much more confident.

It was just that Li Su had never been aware of this.

Until one day, when Li Su was standing at the gate of the kindergarten and was about to pick up her daughter… Suddenly, a woman about her age came over and said, “Hello, your child also attends school here, right?”

This woman was a bit strange. At the very least, Li Su had never seen her.

Li Su took a step back and just nodded. “Yes.”

“What a coincidence. My son also goes to school here. I often see you coming to pick up the child from school. The child’s father must be very busy with work, right? Don’t the grandparents help? There are very few elderly people who are so indifferent to their children these days. My son pleaded with me to pick him up today, otherwise his grandparents would come to pick him up,” the woman said very familiarly.

Li Su smiled and said nothing.

“Are you divorced? So it’s like this! Oh, don’t be embarrassed. Divorce is normal now!” the woman said very familiarly.

Li Su thought that this woman was probably not very smart, so she glanced at her. She then moved to the side, not wanting to be near her.

As a result, the woman came up and said in a low voice, “Let me tell you the truth, in fact, my mother-in-law has been watching you for a long time. She also went to your community to inquire about you. You are renting a house with your daughter alone. As for me, I have a younger brother who is divorced, just like you, but he has big ambitions. He doesn’t look down on those who have dated before. When he saw your photo, he was moved. As for our family, we don’t care that you are divorced with a child, and we don’t care about dowry or anything like that. But, there is only one thing, you have to promise that after you get married, you must give birth to a son for my younger brother. His previous wife left because she couldn’t give birth. But I see that you are a good breeder, so there is definitely no problem. So, today, I will introduce you to meet my younger brother! As for marriage, this is something you can talk about with him!”

Li Su rolled her eyes at the woman’s words.

“Eldest sister, I don’t know you, and I’m not interested in your younger brother who has to have a male descendant. You can find someone else! I’m not interested,” Li Su said directly. She then took earphones out from the bag and put them on. She also had the appearance of someone who was not interested in talking anymore.

The woman grabbed Li Su’s earphones and almost pulled Li Su’s phone away.

Li Su stared, grabbed the other’s hand, and squeezed it tightly. The woman’s face changed. “What are you trying to do?! Let go quickly! Otherwise, I’ll call the police!”

Li Su pushed hard, the woman staggered back a few steps, and stopped when she hit someone else. She looked at Li Su with horror. She was too strong! If her younger brother really married her, wouldn’t he be at a loss if she wanted to rebel in the future? Judging from her food and clothing expenses, she probably had some money, and she was a foreigner, so she would be easy to control. She didn’t expect her to be so strong! No!

Li Su clapped her hands in disgust. “Stay away from me! Also, don’t inquire about me in private, otherwise…”

Li Su squeezed her hands together with a cracking sound.

The woman’s complexion changed, and she ducked into the crowd with her head down.

Li Su just gave up.

Li Su didn’t take this matter to heart. She picked up her daughter. They held hands, talked, and laughed all the way home.

As soon as he walked to the door of her unit, she was suddenly blocked by a person.

“How could you do that to my older sister? Now my sister told my parents and my parents disagree with our matter. What do you have to say about this?”

Li Su looked at the man like he was a fool. “Who are you? Do I know you? Go away! Get out of the way!”

The man was about 1.7 metres tall with pimples all over his face. He didn’t look young anymore, but he was dressed like a college student in his early twenties, nondescript, and he thought he looked handsome.

When the man heard Li Su say this, he was a little angry. He came forward and wanted to hold Li Su’s hand.

Li Su quickly dodged. Zhang Yao was a little scared, and pulled Li Su’s shirt tightly, “Mum!”

Li Su patted Zhang Yao’s head soothingly. “Don’t be afraid. Mum is here.” Then, she thought of something. “Oh, you are the younger brother of the crazy woman today? What? Your older sister didn’t tell you why she objected?”

When Li Su said these words, she paid attention to her surroundings. There was no camera at the door of the unit, and no one passed by. Very good, no one would see this.

Li Su patted Zhang Yao’s hand and asked her to stand in the corner. “Be good, Cover your eyes. Only open them when mum says you can!”

Zhang Yao obediently stood in the corner and covered her eyes.

Then Li Su walked towards the man. The man thought that Li Su liked him and wanted to give him a hug. He said proudly, “I don’t mind… Ah!!!!”

Zhang Yao was startled by the screams. Just as she was about to open her eyes, Li Su said, “Yao’er is good, don’t open your eyes. This uncle is too ugly. Don’t dirty your eyes!”

When Li Su said this, she punched the man in the stomach again. The man hit the ground, and then she went to kick him a few more times.

“This is a warning. Stay away from me, otherwise, this old woman will kill you!” Li Su threatened with her foot on the man’s chest.

At this time, there were voices coming from outside the unit door. Li Su quickly removed her foot and took Zhang Yao’s hand. “Yao’er, you can open your eyes now. Let’s go quickly.” The mother and daughter quickly walked in and then got on the elevator.

The man fell to the ground, screaming in pain.

The people who came in behind were startled when they saw this. They all wondered what happened. Should they call an ambulance or something?

Although the man was ugly, he had strong self-esteem. How could he let others know that he, a dignified man, was beaten up by a weak woman? He just said that he was looking at his phone and accidentally fell. He would be fine. Then, he endured the pain, got up from the ground, and ran away in a hurry.

Someone behind him said, “This person is very eye-catching and he doesn’t seem to be from our community.”

“That’s right. I haven’t seen him either. Tomorrow we need to make a complaint to the property manager. We can’t let unknown people into the estate. It is dangerous!”

”That’s right, let’s go together after sending the kids to school tomorrow.”

The man hadn’t gone far. Hearing this, his foot slipped and he almost fell again. At the same time, he was afraid. He blamed his older sister again. This was all her fault. What kind of eyes did she have? How could she find such a person? She looked so beautiful. He never thought she would be so rude and sturdy. He liked ones that were gentle and watery.

The man went home and complained to his parents, who scolded their daughter again. The daughter went home and quarrelled with her mother-in-law again. Her mother-in-law was also aggrieved. She had looked for someone according to the conditions mentioned by her in-laws. How could she be blamed! The mother-in-law complained to her son, and the son quarrelled with his wife when he came back.

It was a great commotion1

Afterwards, Li Su and Zhang Yao returned home. Zhang Yao was obviously still a little scared.

Li Su patted her head. It seemed that in the future, when she went to buy a house, she still had to choose a high-end residential area with high-level security. It didn’t matter if the property fee was a little expensive. At least occurrences like today wouldn’t happen again.

“That person just now was a lunatic. Ignore him,” Li Su said.

“Mum, did you beat him up just now? Mum, you are amazing! But mum, if you are so powerful, why didn’t you resist when dad beat you before?” Zhang Yao asked.

Li Su stopped. How should she answer this?

“That’s because we used to be a family. Your mother thought tolerating him would bring us a stable life as a family. Then, your mother found out that she was wrong. Blindly conceding in this manner would not gain the other party’s gratitude or guilt. It would only cause the other party to unscrupulously trample on you more!” Li Su tried to find a reasonable and lofty excuse for her transformation.

Zhang Yao seemed to understand, but she suddenly raised her head and blinked her big eyes. “It was for my sake, right? Mum couldn’t bear it if it affected me, right?”

Li Su laughed and touched Zhang Yao’s hair. “Yes, your mother couldn’t bear anything happening to her good daughter!”

Zhang Yao rubbed Li Su’s head. “Mum!”

Li Su patted Zhang Yao’s butt lightly. “Okay, stop acting like a spoiled child. Go wash your hands quickly, then come to the kitchen to help mum cook.”

Zhang Yao covered her butt and jumped aside. “I know, mum. I’ll wash my hands right away.”
