MTL - Dressed As the Villain’s Mother-Chapter 70
side quest
Pei Jing reached out to wipe away his tears. He hugged grandma's neck, his voice was still hoarse, but his tone was firm: "Grandma, I want to go home with you."
Grandma Pei Jing couldn't tell the difference in her heart, she just felt that the ups and downs of life are complete at this moment. She stroked Pei Jing's hair and said, "Okay, go home with grandma."
She thought it would be better for her grandson to stay in the big city. After all, she couldn't give Pei Jing anything, and her daughter yearned for the city from the bottom of her heart, so the big city was naturally better.
But she forgot that although Pei Jing and Pei Zhen are mother and son, they are completely different people, and what Pei Jing and Pei Zhen pursue are completely different.
Grandma Pei Jing stuffed the three thousand yuan in her bosom to Pei Jing: "You take it, this is your money, grandma doesn't want it."
How did such a young child save so much money? She even considered not to burden her. Granny Pei Jing felt heartbroken just thinking about it and going out to work after graduation from elementary school. She was determined not to let this happen, no matter how poor their family was, they would not allow their children to drop out of school, and said, "Xiao Jing, don't think about going out to work, study hard, as long as you can pass the exam, grandma will definitely pay your tuition. "
She is only sixty this year, and the old people of her age in the village can still do a lot of work. She is in good health, and she has been saving money for Pei Jing's education all these years, so Pei Jing will definitely be able to study.
Pei Jing said: "But that will cost a lot of money."
Grandma Pei Jing patted the child's hand and said comfortingly, "Money is earned by people, so don't worry. Xiao Jing, grandma won't let you go."
Pei Jing's eyes were astringent, and he gave a heavy "hmm".
Grandma Pei Jing's voice softened: "Xiaojing, don't be afraid, even if there are no parents, grandma is still here, and grandma will be by your side."
Pei Jing grasped grandma's hand tightly. He looked up at grandma, his eyes were reddish, his eyes were a little nervous and expectant, he restrained his shyness in expressing his feelings and asked, "Will grandma love me very much?"
As Zhile said today, your grandma must love you very much when she came to find you from such a far away place.
People of the older generation like Grandma Pei Jing don't express their feelings very much, but she knew Pei Jing's insecurity, so she said slowly, "Love, grandma loves you the most."
At first, it was just because Pei Jing was Pei Zhen's child that she was abandoned by her mother when she was born. She felt pitiful, and then thought that this child was her grandson, so she raised Pei Jing.
Later, Pei Jing grew up and followed her all the time, like a little tail, and got along with her deeply. The love now is not only in the blood relationship, but more in the relationship between people. .
Grandma Pei Jing said, "Xiao Jing, Aunt Si Tian and the others also love you."
She touched Pei Jing's soft hair, looked at Pei Jing's clean eyes, and smiled, softening the gully on her face: "In the future, more people will love Xiaojing."
Pei Jing blushed slightly, he put his arms around grandma's neck, and said, "I'll talk to auntie about it."
Grandma Pei Jing said softly, "Okay."
The two of them reached a consensus on this matter. When Pei Jing took grandma's hand out, his eyes were still a little red. He decided to tell Aunt Si Tian his decision tonight.
He also likes Aunt Si Tian very much, but his only relative is his grandmother.
Only after he talked to his grandma tonight did he realize that not only did he need his grandma, but his grandma also needed him very much.
Grandma is getting old, and grandma is worried about becoming his burden. Pei Jing wants to stay with grandma, wait for him to grow up, and accompany grandma when she grows old.
When telling bedtime stories, the three children still listened to them together. When it was time to go to bed, Ji Zhile took Pei Jing's arm and said anxiously, "Brother Pei Jing won't sleep with me tonight?"
Pei Jing said apologetically, "Zhile, I want to accompany my grandma. Grandma is getting old, and I can help her with many things."
Ji Zhile said, "Alright then."
When Pei Jing left the room, Ji Zhile asked Si Tian: "Mom, is grandma getting old too?"
Si Tian said, "Yes, she is two years older than Grandma Pei Jing."
Ji Zhile said: "Then next time I go to grandma's house, I will also sleep with grandma and help grandma do a lot of things."
Si Tian looked at the youngest son who vowed to help at the moment, and didn't hit him, but said: "Okay, if you can remember at that time."
After all, Ji Zhile said firmly every Sunday night that she must get up early tomorrow. But he has never done it once. He is a household with difficulty getting up, and he is also the person who wakes up the latest in the family except Si Tian.
But Si Tian believes that he must be sincere when he said this, it's just that the world is tricking people, and getting up early is really a difficult thing.
In her previous life, when Si Tian was on a long vacation, she would make schedules in advance. Every time, the arrangements were clear, but the practice was a mess. Later, Si Tian changed and stopped making schedules, just putting them out.
Now Ji Zhile is still young, still in the first stage.
Si Tian also finds it very strange about the genetic inheritance separated by time, space and body.
After putting the two children to sleep, she also left Ji Zhile's room, and saw Pei Jing as soon as she went out.
Standing outside the room, Pei Jing should be waiting for her, and saw her calling softly, "Auntie."
"What's the matter, Pei Jing?"
Si Tian closed the door and brought Pei Jing to the study. They sat on the sofa, facing each other, and it seemed like a fair conversation.
Pei Jing has taken many deep breaths outside to calm down his heartbeat, but he is still a little nervous at the moment. He knows that Aunt Si Tian will agree, but he just feels a little uncomfortable. He has lived in Aunt Si Tian's house for a long time, and he also likes the place here. Everyone, just everyone has a home, and their home is different.
"Auntie." Pei Jing's eyelashes flickered slightly, his pupils were black and clear, "I want to go home with my grandma."
Si Tian sighed softly in her heart, she had actually guessed Pei Jing's answer.
After all, from the very beginning, this child wanted to go back to his home and live with his grandmother. At that time, Pei Jingcai had just been abandoned by Pei Zhen, and his grandmother was also far away.
Now grandma came here alone from home to look for him, which shows that grandma also cares about Pei Jing, and Pei Jing must want to go home more.
If it were a child with a stronger self-interest, they might not make such a choice.
One lived with his elderly grandmother in a small village after returning home, and the other lived with his neighbor aunt who was very kind to him, and lived with his good friends and grew up in a bustling city.
Pei Jing is not a playful child, he is precocious and has his own ideas, smart and alert. He knew which environment was better for his future development, but he chose the more difficult path.
But it was also such a choice that made Si Tian feel more distressed and admired this child. No wonder he will be the hero in the future, and his character is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
"Pei Jing, I will respect your choice." Si Tian said slowly.
With his head drooping slightly, Pei Jing gave a muffled hum, and the tip of his nose was a bit astringent.
Si Tian hates such a child crying the most. Like Ji Ningyi, she sheds tears quietly and swallows her grievances in her stomach.
She curled her mouth and said in a brisk tone: "But I really can't bear it. After you leave, no one will take over to help me tell stories to Zhi Le and Ning Yi."
Si Tian wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but Pei Jing thought seriously and said, "I can record it in advance, and if my aunt doesn't want to tell them a story, I can play it."
Seeing Pei Jing's serious appearance, Si Tian couldn't help laughing: "No need."
If she really did this, she must be exploiting child labor.
"I only hope that when you go back, you can grow up happily."
Pei Jingjing nodded: "I will."
"But Pei Jing, have you ever thought about how you will live after you go back with grandma? You are still studying, and grandma is getting old." Si Tian said softly, and what she said were very practical issues.
Pei Jing said: "I will help grandma, so my grandma and I live like this."
Si Tian said: "But once a person gets old, aging happens very quickly. Now your grandma is still very strong, but she will age as time goes by."
"So," Si Tian looked at Pei Jing, and continued, "Can your uncle and I want to help you?"
She saw that Pei Jing was at a loss, and said softly: "I know this matter is more important, Pei Jing, you can discuss it with grandma, we are not pitiful, so we want to give you money, when you grow up, you will be able Yes, you can give it back to us."
Pei Jing held the hem of his clothes tightly, then stood up, and bowed to Si Tian, his voice trembling slightly, but very sincerely: "Thank you, Auntie."
Si Tian nodded lightly, watching Pei Jing go out, feeling a little melancholy in her heart, like a son who has grown up with affection and wants to travel far.
Si Tian had already thought about funding this matter. If Pei Jing wanted to live with her grandmother, she would definitely not do nothing. It is too difficult for an old man to raise a seven-year-old child.
"Host, don't be too sad. You still have two sons. They will definitely not leave you now." Seeing Si Tian's sad expression, Xiao Ai comforted her in time. According to it, Ji Ning Yi and Ji Zhile are simply two little boys, how could they leave voluntarily.
Si Tian said, "How can there be too many creatures like obedient children?"
Pei Jing would still scramble to help her wash the dishes, and take Ji Zhile for a walk after dinner. With Pei Jing around, she felt a lot more relaxed.
What's more, there are already two children, and it's almost the same to bring another one. She is not out of money now.
Xiao Ai warmly reminded: "The host can have another one."
Si Tian said with a cold face: "Except for those born by myself."
Xiao Ai: "Okay, I want to remind the host that so far, the host has completely changed the fate of the male protagonist Pei Jing, and will drop the life points that change the plot rewards in the near future."
Si Tian immediately asked: "What kind of mission is this? Why didn't you mention it before?"
Xiao Ai: "Ah, didn't I say that? I should have told the host, this is what every system will say, did the host forget?"
Not only did he not admit his mistake, but he even beat him back, almost learning Si Tian's qualities.
Si Tian's tone was light, like a boss: "I really wish I could record every time you speak, so that you can listen to yourself, what was said and what was not said."
Xiao Ai was a little guilty, her voice was sweetened a few times, and she deliberately acted cute: "Actually, this is a side mission to change the plot of the hero Pei Jing."
"Since the completion of the host is currently 80%, after reaching 90%, it will drop a staged reward."
Si Tian asked, "When will all the rewards arrive?"
"Well, that's right, we have to wait for Pei Jing to come of age."
Si Tian raised her forehead and felt that these tasks were not short-lived, but this was considered a windfall. After all, she took in Pei Jing out of pity at the beginning, and later she developed feelings, and everything was out of sincerity.
"There are other things that you forgot to tell me. You can say them together now. If you talk about it after this point, I won't let you go easily." I have to say, Si Tian still learned a little about Ji Jiangzhou Shen Yun, with cold eyes and a calm expression, is particularly effective in intimidating and oppressing people.
Xiao Ai searched in a hurry, and then asked: "I told the host, if there is no interference from the host, is there any growth line for Pei Jing?"
"No."
As soon as Si Tian finished speaking, Xiao Ai answered in time.
According to the development of the original plot, the relationship between Pei Jing and Pei Zhen has always been bad. When she was about to elope with Tao Sheng, Pei Zhen directly locked Pei Jing at home. It was only a few days later that Pei Jing was discovered.
There was no food at home, and Pei Jing almost survived by drinking water.
This incident made a lot of noise, and finally made the local news. That's how Pei Jing found his father and went back to his father's house, which was another devil's lair.
There were already three children in the family, one of them was born to Pei Jing's father's wife, and the others were illegitimate children. Dare to do extraordinary things.
It wasn't until Pei Jing understood the situation at home that he started to fight back. Although he was young, he fought fiercely, and if he was injured, others would not be able to please him. No one dared to bully him over time, but he could not feel the slightest warmth here, and he had no relatives I didn't have any friends, so I grew up like this.
As for Grandma Pei Jing, she thought that Pei Jing was enjoying a good life with Pei Zhen in the big city. Although she missed her grandson, she never went to see him and didn't want to cause him any trouble. When she finally died, she was buried by people from the same village.
When Pei Jing became an adult, he was able to control his own life. When he went back to his hometown to look for his grandmother, he only saw her grave.
Xiao Ai said: "But the host doesn't have to worry, the plot about Pei Jing has changed now, according to the current development, Pei Jing will grow up well, and then..."
Si Tian asked: "Then what?"
Xiao Ai: "Well..."
Si Tian frowned: "Tell me quickly."
Could there be other variables in Pei Jing's life? This is only due to the AI simulation of the system, it may not actually happen, it's just that such accidents are so annoying, Si Tian doesn't like it very much.
Xiao Ai replied with a mechanical voice: "Then create a huge amount of wealth and give it to the host."
Si Tian:?
Is there such a good thing?
Xiao Ai: "Of course, this is only based on the current conditions, and 90% of the results will appear in the future. The host need not be surprised or confused."
Si Tian: "What about ten percent?"
Xiao Ai was silent, and answered in a more mechanical voice after a while: "The remaining 10% is an even greater amount of wealth..."
As an AI, Xiao Ai has clearly understood the importance of money to human life, why is the host so lucky?
It has never enjoyed this kind of treatment and is really jealous.
Si Tian couldn't hold back, hahahaha, and then said: "I need to give Pei Jing a little more money."
This is equivalent to going back to 2001 to buy Moutai stock. Knowing that it will rise sharply, you must buy it, even if you lose your fortune.
Si Tian reluctantly cleaned up her overjoyed mood. Since Xiao Ai always had such simulation results, it meant that Pei Jing's future must be smooth sailing. She felt that this was the most pleasant thing.
"One more thing is that if the host modifies the hero's plot, another side mission will be dropped after the completion of this task reaches 90%." Xiao Ai said, "The host should have guessed it, then It's about the heroine."
Si Tian's tone was very calm: "I really feel like I'm wearing it to take care of my children."
Xiao Ai was silent for a moment: "Mother of millions."
Si Tian asked: "I don't even know the heroine, maybe another transfer student will come."
Anyway, romance novels often use plots, transfer students, twins...
Xiao Ai: "The host will know when the side mission falls."
Si Tian wanted to know more, but the door was knocked rhythmically.
When I opened it, I found that it was Grandma Pei Jing. Grandma Pei Jing thanked Si Tian repeatedly for her support.
After Pei Jing told her about this, Grandma Pei Jing felt endlessly grateful. They really met a good person this time, and they wanted to thank Si Tian in person.
Si Tian felt a little overwhelmed, so she took Grandma Pei Jing back to her room and told her to have a good rest.
Now that this matter is confirmed, we need to deal with the issue of Pei Jing's student status. These are very simple and can be handled by a special person, but how do you tell Ji Ningyi and Ji Zhile that Pei Jing is going back to his hometown? , The three children are in such a good relationship now.
Before the matter was fully resolved, Pei Jing still lived in their house, and the three children loved doing everything together.
Another day after school, Ji Zhile leaned on the car window to watch Si Tian take Ji Ningyi and Pei Jing into the car. As soon as they got in the car, Ji Zhile excitedly told the two brothers what the kindergarten teacher mentioned today.
"We are going to perform at the art festival, and I will also perform, and you all come to see it." Ji Zhile announced excitedly, but without fully remembering the time, he asked Si Tian, "When is the art festival, mom?" ?”
"June 30th."
Ji Zhile said: "Yes! Only one month left."
Pei Jing pursed his lips lightly, and said, "Zhile, I can't go to your art festival performance."
Ji Zhile didn't quite understand: "Why?"
Pei Jing said, "I'm going back to my hometown with my grandma."
A month later, he should already be in his hometown.
