C3 Children from the Stars

Ji Xinqing returned to the Meng Clan very quickly.

She changed her shoes and went into the living room, where she found the butler standing uneasily at the foot of the stairs.

A high-pitched voice came from the second floor.

"You worry-free thing! It's not good to be reborn somewhere, but if you are not reborn in our Meng Clan, it's fine if you are a useless person, but you don't even know how to speak! "

"What are you looking at!?" "If you keep your eyes on me, I'll send you away tomorrow!"

"You and your mother are the same. You're just like a nuisance. You'll only waste our Old Meng family's food. Sooner or later, I'll send you two away!"

Ji Xinqing's expression instantly turned unsightly.

At this moment, the housekeeper said with difficulty, "I'm sorry, Young Madame. Madam seemed to have drank some wine and I was unable to stop her. The young miss, she —"

Ji Xinqing didn't say anything and walked upstairs quickly.

The bedroom door was open.

Ji Xinqing saw Meng Lanshan sitting on the edge of the bed with her head down.

There was no expression on his young face. He just stared blankly at the floor.

On the other hand, her mother-in-law, Wang Jianfen, stood in front of Meng Lanshan with a vicious face. The more Meng Lanshan remained silent, the angrier she got.

All of a sudden, she stepped forward and grabbed Meng Lanshan's hair.

"Are you going to talk or not!? You're not going to speak, right? Alright, I'll make you stay silent! I think you'll cry so much that you won't be able to cry later! "

"Mom!" Ji Xinqing shouted.

She hurried forward to push Wang Jianfen away, then tightly held Meng Lanshan in her embrace.

Ji Xinqing was so angry that her chest heaved up and down.

From the moment she gave birth to Meng Lanshan, Ji Xinqing knew that Wang Jianfen didn't like her.

However, she was only a four year old child. How could Wang Jianfen bear to be so ruthless?

Thinking back to what she had just seen, Ji Xinqing's scalp went numb. She quickly let go of Meng Lanshan and examined her scalp, but didn't find anything out of the ordinary.

Ji Xinqing, however, didn't feel reassured. She bent down and asked, "Lanshan, where's the pain? Can you tell Mom?"

However, the reply she got was a laugh.

"Ji Xinqing, you don't know that she's mute!" Wang Jianfen got up from the ground.

Ji Xinqing was afraid that Wang Jianfen would do something too excessive to Meng Lanshan again, so she quickly shielded Meng Lanshan behind her and asked, "Mom, what are you doing?! "You don't know Lanshan, she —"

"What sister-in-law should I know?" A woman suddenly walked in from outside the door.

It was Meng Qinyue's sister, Ji Xinqing's sister-in-law, Meng Qinyu.

Meng Qinyu's tone was harsh. "You know your daughter has severe autism?"

At this time, Wang Jianfen sat back down on the ground and wailed, "Aiyo, my old bones! I, Daughter-in-law, am truly an ungrateful person. Old Meng's family has fed and fed her well for six years, and she treated her mother-in-law in such a manner! Aiyo! My bones are going to break! "

Meng Qinyu stepped forward to help Wang Jianfen up, then questioned Ji Xinqing, "Sister-in-law, this is how you treat Mom! Don't you know that your mother's health is poor and she can't take the torture? "

The steward stood obediently by the bedroom door, not daring to make a sound.

This was not the first time.

She was only a servant. Although she sympathized with Ji Xinqing's plight, she didn't dare to interfere.

Ji Xinqing sat in front of the bed, closely protecting Lanshan.

Meng Qinyu's gaze was so overbearing that she could only say, "Mom, I'm sorry. It was my fault just now. I just saw you —"

Meng Qinyu immediately interrupted her. "Sister-in-law, this is not something that can be done with just a word of apology!"

Ji Xinqing paused for a moment before saying, "Butler, take Lanshan back to her room first."

After Meng Lanshan was taken away by the butler, Ji Xinqing then fished out a card from her bag in exhaustion. However, the moment she handed the card over, she was snatched away with both hands.

She was silent for a long time before she said, "Mom, this is the money Dad called me for last month. You know the password."

Grandma Wang Jianfen was fond of playing cards, and this was not a secret in the Meng Family.

However, the reason why the Meng Clan was able to reach its current status was all because of Ji Xinqing's father-in-law, Meng Qinggrong.

Meng Qinggrong had spent his whole life living frugally and naturally wouldn't allow Wang Jianfen to spend his hard-earned money at cards.

Wang Jianfen couldn't get any money from Meng Qinggrong, so she could only turn her attention to Ji Xinqing.

The way she wanted money was also becoming increasingly common.

She held onto the card tightly, not letting go of what had happened, "Ji Xinqing, I'm warning you! If that little bastard still doesn't speak, I'll send her away! Old Meng couldn't afford to raise a mental sickness! "

Ji Xinqing sat on the bed tiredly and explained once more, "Mom, Lanshan isn't sick. Believe me, I will cure her. It's only a matter of time now."

Meng Lanshan was a test tube baby she and Meng Qinyue made five years ago.

Ji Xinqing originally thought she was a healthy little girl, but a year later, before Lanshan could say a word, she realized something.

To the hospital, the doctor said, Lanshan is autistic.

Actually, it wasn't a serious illness, but Meng Lanshan had a serious mental disorder. She didn't want to communicate with others, so she confined herself to her own little world.

The doctor said there was hope, but it depended on the patience of the parent.

For four years, Ji Xinqing had never given up.

Meng Qinyu sneered. "Sister-in-law, stop lying to yourself. I advise you to work hard and give birth to a child while you're still young. Otherwise, when you're old, no one will ever send you off."

"Mom, let's go."

After the sound of footsteps faded away, Ji Xinqing pursed her lips with great effort and walked into Meng Lanshan's bedroom.

The butler had already left. Meng Lanshan lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

The face that looked very similar to Ji Xinqing's didn't have the slightest expression on it.

Ji Xinqing wanted to cry again, but she held herself back.

She sat on the edge of the bed and gently caressed Meng Lanshan's head. "Lanshan, did Grandmother just grab you here?"

Meng Lanshan's eyeballs moved, but she only glanced at Ji Xinqing once before retracting her gaze.

Ji Xinqing was used to her reaction as she continued, "Mom will massage it for you. It won't hurt anymore."

Meng Lanshan didn't have the slightest reaction.

The doctor said Meng Lanshan's autism was a bit severe, so severe that she didn't even want to talk to her closest friends.

For four years, Ji Xinqing had been hoping that Meng Lanshan would call her mother. However, every time she tried, she failed.

Ji Xinqing bent down again and smiled at Meng Lanshan. She pointed at her lips and said word by word, "Mom … Mom …"

"Mom … Mom …"

However, this time, Meng Lanshan didn't even bother to spare her a glance as she directly closed her eyes.

Once again, Ji Xinqing felt powerless. Feeling disappointed, she sat back down, pulled Lanshan's blanket over her, and left the bedroom quietly.

Back in her room, Ji Xinqing pulled out a photo from her drawer.

It was a group photo.

Ji Xinqing stood in the middle of the photo, surrounded by a dozen children.

The children were in the same situation as Meng Lanshan. They were all autistic.
