Chapter 13 Home and Mother
Ming Dai walked forward unhurriedly, and the old and faded memories gradually revived.

Passing through the street full of people, turning around the alley full of sewage, the second floor of the mottled and uneven concrete wall, the field window painted light green is slightly open, and the branches and leaves of the pothos hang down from the gap, swaying lightly with the wind.

Mingdai's house is behind that green window.

Land is very expensive in Yanjing, and the Ming family can't afford a house, so Ming Dai has been renting here since she can remember.

It is eleven o'clock in the morning, when Ming Dai stepped into the house, her mother Yu Ting was choosing vegetables in the kitchen.

Hearing the creaking of the old anti-theft door, she looked over.

"Ming Dai?" Wiping her hands with her apron, she stood up, "You're back so early?"

Mingdai found her pair of pink slippers from the messy pile of shoes at the door and changed into them.

When he raised his eyes, there was a pause under his feet.

Yu Ting ten years ago did not look as young as ten years later.

Also.

Now she is still immersed in the bitter waters of life, and the heavy livelihood almost weighs on her shoulders - she has to get up before dawn every day, works as a waiter in a nearby restaurant at noon, and goes to the snack street to set up a stall at night...

Like a tireless spinning top, that pretty face when she was young has been ruined badly, making her look at least ten years older than her actual age.

It wasn't until Ming Dai gave up the college entrance examination this year and stepped into the entertainment circle that the family's financial situation improved. Yu Ting didn't have to go out to work, because Ming Dai's monthly wages were enough for the couple to live comfortably.

At the beginning, Yu Ting still had a sense of crisis, and would save most of the money, so that even if Ming Dai died and couldn't make any money, the life of the couple would not be greatly affected in their later years.

Slowly, Ming Dai became more and more popular, earning more and more money, and her sense of crisis was paralyzed. Yu Ting began to squander, asking Ming Dai for money for various reasons.

The face Ming Dai saw ten years later was the beauty piled up by countless money.

On the eve of her rebirth, Ming Dai, who was exhausted, called her adoptive parents, like a wronged child, hoping to be comforted by their parents.

Yu Ting, who was nervous and worried, asked her first question not about her condition, but——

'Will you lose money?Has work been affected?Can I still buy the villa I saw last time? '

……

"How's the audition going? Why did you come back alone? Where's your brother?"

The two voices of this life and the previous life seem to overlap.

Ming Dai was in a trance for a moment.

She avoided Yu Ting's questioning gaze, walked into the kitchen, and took the half-finished dishes from Yu Ting.

"I'm not feeling well, so I came back by myself."

Yu Ting heard this, thinking that Ming Dai had passed the audition, her face beamed with joy.

She quickly got into the kitchen and snatched the dishes from Ming Dai's hand.

"Okay, the kitchen is already small, what are you doing squeezed in? Didn't you say that you are uncomfortable? Go to rest now! Oh yes, don't forget to call and ask when your cousin can come to eat at home, this matter Thanks to him for showing the way, otherwise where did we come from to take you to audition to become a star..."

"I didn't pass the audition."

Ming Dai droops her eyelashes, interrupting Yu Ting's rambling in high spirits.

Yu Ting's words stopped abruptly.

"Have you...been?" Her voice suddenly became high-pitched, "Why haven't you been? Is it because the director didn't like you?"

"It just didn't happen."

Mingdai picked up other dishes slowly, and her handling went from rusty to proficient.

During this process, Yu Ting's breathing became heavy.

A full 1 minutes passed.

Yu Ting took a deep breath and threw the vegetables in her hand into the basin.

Her tone was cold and firm, and what she said was exactly as Ming Dai had guessed in advance:

"I've disposed of all this pot of vegetables, and I'll use them at the stall at night!"

"Oh."

"The clothes are soaking in the toilet, I'll wash them in a while!"

"Ah."

"Where are your glasses? You just came back shaking like this? I'm afraid that others won't notice you, right?"

"At my cousin's place, he took it and didn't return it to me."

Yu Ting stared at Ming Dai's delicate side face, which seemed to be coated with a layer of streamer, and became angry.

"Don't you have the glasses that were eliminated before? Put them on! You are in the third year of high school! Your grades are so bad! You still don't study well! What are you going to do when you grow up? Are you seducing men with this face? I knew you were restless of……"

Bitter and vitriolic abuse passed by her ears, but Ming Dai didn't listen, nor was she angry.

Just some emotion.

It turned out that it was not the persuasion of her cousin Kang Ren that made Yu Ting nod in her previous life.

— it's money.

Ming Dai coughed twice more in a low voice.

Yu Ting kept scolding: "What kind of Miss Jiao are you who doesn't touch Yang Chunshui? You can cough up washing vegetables! The movement is so slow! When I was your age! The housework inside and outside the mother's house is all I do it alone! It’s not like you are now! I don’t know the blessings in the blessings!”

Ming Dai casually looked down at the pair of rough hands soaked in the water. They were hands used to doing housework since childhood, and they hadn't been fresh and fair for ten years.

Which Miss Jiao has hands like this?

Yu Ting still didn't think it was enough: "Would you like to do your laundry? It's a waste of time to do something!"

How could Ming Dai do two things that Yu Ting ordered at the same time.

Imagine that there are two basins in front of her, one for washing vegetables and the other for washing clothes, she puts both hands together...

"puff."

Ming Dai felt that her head might be overwhelmed, and she could still think wildly at this moment.

Yu Ting looked at her as if she was a fool, and ordered the third thing with disgust:

"The soy sauce at home is gone! Go downstairs and buy a bottle!"

"Oh."

Ming Dai wiped her hands, took two steps, then turned around and reached out to Yu Ting.

Yu Ting glared angrily: "What are you doing!"

"money."

Yu Ting held back her anger, and it took a long time before she pulled out a ten-yuan piece and gave it to Ming Dai.

"A bottle of soy sauce is [-] yuan, remember to make up [-] yuan! No hiding!"

"know."

Ming Dai moved faster.

She put on the glasses she used to use in the drawer again, so as not to be scolded by Yu Ting again when she saw her.

Stepping on slippers, trotting downstairs, freed from Yu Ting's cursing, the whole world seemed to be refreshed.

Mingdai jumped forward step by step on the checkered bricks of the sidewalk with light steps.

She has no distracting thoughts, like a naive child immersed in a game.

All it takes is a little fun to be happy.

...A pair of feet appeared in the field of vision.

Jimmy Choo's pointed high heels, and the exquisite elegance that is incompatible with the village in the city.

Ming Dai followed those feet, looked up, and saw a slightly familiar face.

Short hair, shrewd eyes, slightly ordinary facial features, and an aggressive look.

Where have you seen it?

"Did you go to Xijiang Building just now?"

The other party spoke very fast, and there was still a faint breath.

Ming Dai tilted her head towards her.

"I saw you there just now, but you didn't wear glasses. Let me introduce again. I'm an agent. Are you interested in becoming an actor in the entertainment industry?"

The woman's bright eyes fixed on her, with an undeniable aura of oppression.

If Ming Dai was a real little girl, she might be nervous.

But she is not.
