Chapter 13 Home and Mom

Mingdai walked forward unhurriedly, and her old and faded memories gradually revived.

Passing through the bustling streets, turning through the alleys with sewage flowing across it, the second floor has uneven cement walls, slightly open windows painted in light green, and green radish branches and leaves hanging from the gaps, swaying lightly in the wind.

Mingdai's home is behind the green window.

There is a lot of money in Yanjing, and the Ming family cannot afford to buy a house, so they have been renting here since Ming Dai can remember.

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

Hearing the creaking of the old security door, she looked over.

"Mingdai?" She wiped her hands with her apron and stood up, "You're back so early?"

Ming Dai found her own pair of pink slippers from the mess of shoes at the door and put on them.

When he raised his eyes, his feet followed him.

Yu Ting ten years ago didn't look as young as she would ten years later.

Too.

Now she is still immersed in the bitterness of life, and the heavy livelihood is almost crushing her shoulders - she has to get up before dawn every day, work as a waitress in a nearby restaurant at noon, and go to the snack street to set up a stall at night...

Like a tireless spinning top, the face that was quite beautiful when she was young was ruined and looked at least ten years older than her actual age.

It wasn't until Mingdai gave up the college entrance examination and entered the entertainment industry when she was eighteen years old that her family's financial situation improved. Yu Ting did not have to go out to work because Mingdai's monthly salary was enough for the couple to live comfortably.

At the beginning, Yu Ting still had a sense of crisis and would save most of her money. This way, even if Ming Dai failed to make money, the couple's life in their later years would not be greatly affected.

Slowly, Mingdai became more and more popular and earned more and more money. The sense of crisis was numbed, and Yu Ting began to squander money and asked Mingdai for money for various reasons.

The face Mingdai saw ten years later was a beauty built up of countless money.

On the eve of her rebirth, Ming Dai, who was exhausted, called her adoptive parents, like an aggrieved child looking for comfort from their parents.

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

'Will I lose money? Is my job affected? Can I still buy the villa I looked at last time?'

"How was the audition? Why are you back alone? Where is your brother?"

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

Mingdai was in a daze for a moment.

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

"I didn't feel well, so I came back on my own."

When Yu Ting heard this, she thought Ming Dai had passed the audition and she looked happy.

She quickly got into the kitchen and took the food from Mingdai's hand.

"Okay, the kitchen is already small, why are you squeezing in? Don't you say you feel uncomfortable? Go and have a rest! Oh, by the way, don't forget to call and ask when your cousin can come to the house for dinner.

Thanks to his guidance, otherwise how would we have found the way to take you to audition to become a star..."

"Failed the audition."

Ming Dai lowered her eyelashes, interrupting Yu Ting's enthusiastic chatter.

Yu Ting's words stopped abruptly.

"Didn't... pass?" Her voice suddenly became shriller, "Why didn't you pass? Is it because the director didn't like you?"

"I just didn't pass."

Mingdai picked up other dishes slowly, her handling movements changing from unfamiliar to skillful.

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

A full minute passed.

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

Her tone was cold and hard, and what she said was just as Ming Dai had guessed beforehand:

"Get rid of all this pot of vegetables. We need it for the stall tonight!"

"oh."

"There are clothes soaking in the toilet, I'll go wash them later!"

"Um."

"Where are your glasses? Are you swinging them back like this? Are you afraid that others won't notice you?"

"It was at my cousin's place. He took it away and didn't give it back to me."

Yu Ting stared at Ming Dai's side face, which was so delicate that it seemed to be automatically coated with a layer of light, and her anger suddenly rose.

"Don't you have glasses that were eliminated in the past? Put them on! You are already in the third year of high school! Your grades are so bad! You haven't studied hard yet! What are you going to do when you grow up? Are you going to seduce men with this face? I knew you were restless.

of……"

Harsh insults passed past her ears, but Mingdai didn't listen and wasn't angry.

Just a little emotional.

It turns out that it was not cousin Kang Ren's persuasion that made Yu Ting nod in her previous life.

——It’s money.

Mingdai coughed twice again.

Yu Ting kept scolding: "Are you some kind of sweet lady who doesn't touch the spring water with her fingers? You can cough even if you wash vegetables! You move so slowly! When I was your age, I had to do all the housework in my mother's house.

I'll do it alone! How can you be like you now? You're in the midst of all the blessings and you don't know how blessed you are!"

Ming Dai casually lowered her eyes and looked at the rough hands soaked in the water. They were hands that had been used to do housework since she was a child, and they had not maintained their freshness and whiteness for ten years.

Which charming lady has such long hands?

Yu Ting still felt that it was not enough: "Should I ask you to wash clothes? Do something for me!"

How could Mingdai do two things at the same time as Yu Ting ordered.

Thinking about the two basins placed in front of her, one for washing vegetables and the other for washing clothes, she put both hands together...

"puff."

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

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

"There is no soy sauce at home! Go downstairs and buy a bottle and bring it back!"

"oh."

Mingdai wiped her hands, took two steps, turned back, and stretched out her hand towards Yu Ting.

Yu Ting glared: "What to do!"

"money."

Yu Ting held back her anger and took a long time to pull out a ten-dollar note and give it to Mingdai.

"Soy sauce is eight yuan a bottle, remember to replenish two yuan! No hiding!"

"Know."

Mingdai moved faster.

She put on the glasses she used before in the drawer again to avoid being scolded by Yu Ting again.

I put on my slippers and trotted downstairs. I was away from Yu Ting's scolding, and the whole world seemed to feel refreshed.

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

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

All you need is a little fun to be happy.

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

Jimmy Choo's pointy-toe high heels, as well as the exquisite elegance that is incompatible with the urban village.

Mingdai followed the feet and looked up, seeing a slightly familiar face.

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

Where have you seen it?

"You have been to Xijiang Building just now, right?"

The other person spoke very quickly and was slightly out of breath.

Ming Dai tilted her head towards her.

"I saw you there just now, but you were without glasses. Let me introduce you again, I am an agent. Are you interested in entering the entertainment industry as an actor?"

The woman's bright eyes were fixed on her, and there was no doubt that her aura was oppressive.

If Mingdai was a real eighteen-year-old girl, she might be nervous.

But she's not.
