Chapter 85: Elder sister is like mother

"Ashan, your mother is having a difficult birth!"

A middle-aged woman ran out of the house with blood on her hands.

The five younger brothers and sisters who were standing outside the house all burst into tears.

Including the newly born brother, the original owner had six brothers and sisters.

In the previous life, the original owner’s biological mother died during childbirth, and she gave birth to a posthumous child with great difficulty.

As the eldest sister, the original owner had to shoulder the burden of supporting the family.

The original owner had just turned sixteen, dropped out of high school, and went to work in the south to earn living expenses and tuition for his younger brothers and sisters.

The eldest brother is only two years younger than the original owner and has excellent academic performance. He is the child in the family most likely to be admitted to university. The original owner also hopes that his younger brothers and sisters will live a good life and escape from this poor place.

The original owner worked three jobs to support his younger brothers and sisters to go to college, and the worst of them only graduated from high school.

She thought her mission was accomplished, but she didn't expect to be greeted with endless demands.

The second son was getting married, and the woman required a house and a car, and he had become accustomed to asking the original owner for them.

The original owner raised money for the down payment for this most promising younger brother, and the other younger brothers followed suit, asking the original owner for this and that. When the original owner did not give them anything, they said that the original owner was biased.

The original owner could only try her best to treat everyone equally, continue to work and earn money, and after helping her brothers and sisters to start their own families, she also ended up with injuries all over her body.

The second brother was "kind-hearted" and took her home to "take care of her". The original owner lived in the second brother's house, doing laundry, cooking and taking care of their children. After raising the three children and no longer needing the original owner, the second brother sent the original owner to the seventh brother's house to continue working as a nanny.

Because the seventh child is the youngest, the resources (money) she provides are less than those of the other brothers and sisters (in the seventh child's opinion), so the seventh child doesn't like her very much, even though she has been helping the seventh child take care of the children.

When the original owner could no longer work, the seventh brother sent her back to the second brother's home. The second brother no longer needed the original owner as a burden, and the brothers and sisters blamed each other and no one was willing to support the original owner.

The original owner was driven away and died under a bridge on a cold night.

"Sister, Mom won't die, right?"

The one who spoke was the fourth one, a dark and thin girl.

"will not."

At this time, the eyes of the second and third sons, the only two boys in the family, lit up.

"Grandma Liu, my mom must be fine. You must save her. Otherwise, what will happen to us brothers and sisters?"

Midwife Liu was also in a dilemma. "Whether the baby survives or not is up to fate."

Inside the room, the original owner's mother also heard the conversation between Zhang Shan and the midwife. She raised her back slightly and shouted to the midwife, "Aunt Liu, you must save the baby. If the baby is gone, I will die!"

The younger brothers and sisters outside the house started crying again.

They have already lost the pillar of their family. What will they do in the future if Aunt Zhang also dies?

Even though they are still young, they know everything they need to know.

Zhang's mother screamed heartbreakingly inside, and soon the baby was born, "It's a boy!"

Aunt Zhang looked up at the child and nodded with satisfaction, "Where's the eldest? Ask her to come in. I have something to say to her."

Zhang Shan knew what she wanted to say?

He simply thought that he was going to die and wanted to entrust his son to someone before he died.

"Mom, how are you?"

Zhang Shan didn't get close, but looked at Zhang Ma from a distance.

"Big Boss, why are you so far away from mom? It's not easy for me to say a word to you. Do you think mom is going to die and you don't want to raise your brothers and sisters anymore?"

"How could that be? Grandma Liu said that unborn girls can't go into the delivery room, or else it will bring bad luck."

They do have such a saying here. They are mainly worried that young girls who have never given birth will affect the mother's rest. It is also to prevent girls from having a shadow of childbirth and being afraid of having children in the future.

"Those are all lies. Your father and I raised you until you were sixteen, and your brothers and sisters are still so young. Take the seventh child, for example. Your father has never even seen him. You have taken up more resources at home than them. If I die, you must not abandon them if you have a conscience. You owe it to them."

"Mom, why do you miss me so much? They are my brothers and sisters, how could I abandon them? What's more, you won't die. Grandma Liu said that mother and child are safe. She would not lie."

Whoever gives birth to the child should raise it.

Anyway, she doesn't want to be that old workhorse!

Aunt Zhang's face froze for a moment, but she reacted quickly.

"I just said that and you started to argue with me. Forget it, I'm tired. Go cook for your brothers and sisters."

After saying that, she closed her eyes and went to sleep. At this moment, she hoped very much that she would die.

Think about the children at home. What will she do in the future without their father?

She is worried!

"Sister, how is mom? What did she say?"

Zhang Shan touched Lao Wu's head and said, "Mom is fine. She gave birth to a little brother for us."

The fifth child was a little unhappy. There was one more person to eat at home, and she couldn't eat well, so she didn't want others to snatch her food.

"Come and give big sister a hand, it's time for dinner."

Zhang Shan called her younger brothers and sisters into the kitchen, but all five of them looked around. Some pretended not to hear, while others pretended that their friends were looking for them and hurried out.

In a family like this, the original owner would just foolishly serve her younger brothers and sisters. They are so young that they can't even be ordered around, so don't expect them to be supported when they are old.

Just a dream.

In order to ensure that Zhang Ma would not starve to death and that Lao Qi would not make Zhang Shan the scapegoat like his mother died in his previous life, Zhang Shan killed the old hen in the backyard and made soup for Zhang Ma.

It was just fine that her brothers and sisters didn’t come near her, she could eat alone.

Chop the hen into small pieces, add ginger slices and a little salt, and simmer for an hour. The resulting orange-yellow chicken soup will smell delicious.

Zhang Shan scooped out the most nutritious chicken oil, scooped out a large spoonful of chicken meat, put it in a bowl, and brought it into the house to Zhang's mother.

"Why did you kill the old hen? What's wrong with you, kid?"

"I just thought that you've suffered a lot this time, and you should eat something good to replenish your body." Zhang Shan said aggrievedly, with red eyes.

Aunt Zhang was angry, but she still drank up all the chicken soup and ate all the chicken.

Zhang Shan finished her portion of the chicken soup as soon as it came out of the pot. When she came out with the empty bowl left by Zhang Ma, she saw the second and third children leaving the room.

Maybe they were hungry, or maybe the chicken soup cooked by Zhang Shan was too delicious, which lured the two of them out.

"Big sis, is the chicken stewed? When are we going to eat?"

"Mom is in confinement after childbirth. We haven't had time to cook yet. Please be patient and cook when you have time."

The second child was a little unhappy, "Sister, I've been studying all day and I'm hungry. Can't you cook for us first? How can I study when I'm hungry? If I can't get into college, it's all your fault!"

"Second brother, how can you be so heartless? Mom just gave birth to the seventh child and is still weak, but you only care about yourself and don't even think about Mom. You are so unfilial."

"How can I be considered unfilial? I just asked you to cook for me. How can that be considered unfilial? I am your biological brother. If you treat me like this now, be careful that I won't help you in the future!"

As the most promising boy in the family, the second child is the most loved and favored by Zhang's father and mother, and he speaks with the loudest tone.

"Don't you have hands? Do you want me to feed you after I make it? With your current state, do I still dare to expect you to stand up for me?"

"Boss, why do you talk to your brother like that? Apologize to your brother now!"

"Mom, why are you so unreasonable?"

"Your brother is going to go to college and become a high-ranking official in the future. Are you trying to ruin your brother by saying he is unfilial? Don't let me hear such words again in the future!"

"Okay, I won't say anything more, and I won't care about you anymore!"

It just so happened that Zhang Shan didn't want to serve this family, so she pretended to be angry, slammed the door and left.

Before the second brother had time to feel proud, he realized that he had made Zhang Shan angry and ran away. Who would cook for him?

"Mom, my sister ran away."

"He ran away, and his temper is getting worse and worse."

"But I haven't eaten yet."

Zhang Ma: "..."

Do you want me to go out and cook for you?

"Tell Lao Si to come back and cook."

The fourth, fifth and sixth brothers have all disappeared, where can he find them?

In the end, it was Aunt Zhang, who had just given birth, who cooked lunch for the brothers. As for the three sisters who were out playing, the two brothers did not leave any food for them.

The three of them came back and asked Zhang Shan to cook for them again. The second sister stood at the door and said sarcastically: "How can the eldest sister's precious hands cook for you? You should cook for yourselves, otherwise she will say you are unfilial."

The three sisters were very dissatisfied. The eldest sister didn't cook for them? What does this mean?

"Why doesn't Big Sister cook for us?"

Zhang Shan came in from outside and heard them complaining, "Because I am not your servant. I have been cooking for you since I was seven years old. Now I am sixteen years old. I have been cooking for nine years. You have also eaten my cooking for nine years. I have washed clothes and cooked for the whole family and served you for nine years. Now I will enjoy your care."

"Sister, how can you do this? We are still young!"

"Not anymore. The second child is 14, the third child is 12, you are 10, the fifth child is 9, and the sixth child is 8. You are all older than I was at that time. Why is it not okay?"

"Sister, times have changed. Have you ever seen a seven-year-old child go into the kitchen to cook for the family?" The second son was also indignant. After all, it was related to his own interests, so he had to stand up and oppose it.

"Nowadays, it's the eldest sister who takes care of the whole family? It seems that this era is only pitting me."

When Aunt Zhang heard the quarrel outside, she came out carrying the seventh child. Instead of mediating the conflict between the siblings, she accused Zhang Shan of being petty.

"You have enjoyed the care of your parents before them, so you should take care of them."

"If that's the case, I only owe the second brother two years, and the third brother four years... Then what about the years I took care of them?

You told me not to be picky, but you all are picking on me. I am the eldest sister, so I will enjoy my parents' care first. But no matter who is the eldest brother or sister, it should be the same.

If I remember correctly, you and dad only took care of me for three months before leaving me to grandma. Who took care of me? Aren't you ashamed to say this?

It's not me who should take care of them, and I don't owe them anything. I should take care of my own children, and there is no reason to share the pressure with my older daughter. Don't outsource your beloved children. I find it disgusting.

Let me say this for the last time. I don’t owe you anything. Instead, you owe me. From the third child to the sixth child, I raised them all.

As long as your parents are still alive, I, as your elder sister, have no obligation to support you. You should go find whoever owes you money!

Also, I’m a sophomore in high school and my studies are very intense. Don’t come to school to see me if you have nothing to do!”

After saying that, Zhang Shan entered the room and took away the original owner's school uniform and books. She didn't plan to come back before the college entrance examination. Of course, there was no problem for brothers and sisters to take care of each other, but to be asked for things blindly, what was the difference between this and being a nanny?

"Stop! If you dare to step out of this door, you will never recognize me as your mother again!"

Zhang Shan was more than happy to do so, and left without any hesitation.
