Selena didn't hear him next, because Iris had already entered her room and called her twice impatiently. For fear of breaking her things, Selena had to hesitantly leave the door and walk quickly towards the house, but she was secretly worried about her parents' reaction.Before, she was extremely happy that they already broke up with her annoying relatives. Not only was the family relationship broken, but the friendship between them was gone. This was what she wanted. No matter what they would like in the future, no matter how good her family is, they don't need these relatives, because those hurtful things have been said and done, and everyone knows that a wooden stake with nails through it will leave a hole and never recover, even if you want to repent.But I didn't expect that these people were so shameless that they even came to set conditions. Selena was afraid that her parents would be kind and agree, which would cause endless problems, so she entered the house absentmindedly.As
Maria almost fainted when she saw this. If Lucia hadn't helped her from behind her, she would have fainted. A girl's face is very important. If her appearance is damaged, how can she get married? Now that her daughter's originally beautiful and tender face was covered in blood, how could Maria not faint from fear?Lucia saw that Selena was injured, and her entire face seemed to be covered in blood, and the blood on her hands continued to bleed. She immediately yelled to someone outside to find a doctor. After recovering, Maria ran to Selena's side, “Selena, tell me what happened, what was happening just now…”Selena seemed unable to hold on and dilated her pupils, grabbed Maria with her bloody hands and only said: “Auntie, she wants my base. She, she…” Before she could finish her words, he fainted in Maria's arms. As soon as Maria heard the word “aunt”, her eyes lifted and looked at Iris with hatred, like a tigress protecting the child. Before, she always bullied Selena. Now they are s
Upon returning, Iris returned to her house to rest, the old house had many rooms, it became more spacious after José's family left, Carmen lived in the one that was better located.After a while, Pablo entered her room to discuss strategies with her. Paul said: “The grocery store at home has been losing money for a long time. Now he still owes thirty silver coins for the purchase. Originally today I went to cost Joseph a deposit, but this was now impossible. If you can't solve it yourself, I'll scratch Iris's face to make amends with Selena…""You dare…"After Carmen finished speaking, she wiped away her tears: "Iris is only 14 years old. What does she know? She is still a child. She is still your sister. How could you do this? If you hadn't been so ruthless at the beginning, how could José become so indifferent? We don't even need to cut off the relationship anymore…"Seeing Pablo showing signs of anger, Carmen trembled and immediately changed her words: "Don't you think it's a little
Selena walked around the house for a while after eating. At noon, she ate two pieces of cake and a few pieces of meat, which were not much. What made her uncomfortable was that she drank two bowls of milk. Her parents don't like drinking it either, they only drink more than half a bowl at a time and the rest is hers.Seeing how Selena drank a big bowl every time, they thought she liked to drink this, but in fact, she almost vomited after drinking it, and adding sesame powder only slightly alleviated the taste, the aftertaste is really unpleasant.But there is no way, to be stronger you have to pay this price. Leaning in front of the window and looking at the scenery outside, she felt a little melancholy, wondering how long she would have to drink this milk before she could get stronger.Selena has been “recovering” at home for most of the month. Many women in the town like to gossip, openly or covertly, and ask indirectly about Selena's face. Because she fell to the ground with blood
While the people of the village are idle, Joseph's family is very busy. Maria and Selena make blush soap every day, although they are not busy from morning to night, there is no free time completely.Since the New Year is approaching, there are many people buying New Year's products, and the items in Pedro's store are also very popular. Essential oils and blushes have been reserved, so seven boxes of rouge and five jars of essential oils will be made this month, which will be enough to keep Maria and Selena busy.In the end, Selena did not sell the base made with jasmine seeds to Pedro, after all, there were few jasmine seeds, and she wanted to keep two boxes for herself and her mother.So in her spare time she used rice to make a common fragrant foundation and mixed some jasmine powder soaked with magic water into it, although it was not as good as jasmine seeds. It still smells fragrant. It is better than the common ones, and the price is more or less the same as other foundations on
In the following days, María even went to Lucía's house to chat less frequently, she was busy at home spinning like a top all day. Some people in the village felt jealous when they saw him. They saw Joseph carrying a heavy load to sell goods every day, and he even ran back and forth several times a day. Suddenly, various families also thought of selling goods.So, numerous women from the village who had plans came to Selena's house to chat and find out what José was selling on weekdays, and then asked their men to buy some products to sell.Because Maria and Selena had been making blush and foundation in the cabin behind the greenhouse, no one paid attention to it, even if they smelled the fragrance, they thought it was the smell of a blush and foundation that José sells, and didn't take it seriously. Leo and Lucía knew a little, but they were not loose-lipped, so the matter did not spread.Of course, Maria would not deliberately talk nonsense, and she would tell the things Joseph was
Joseph took a sip of water and said, “The judge finally acted fairly this time. He scolded Pablo as soon as he entered the door. Finally, Carmen's filial piety payment was set at 3 silver coins, but Pablo gave him 5 silver coins and the amount cannot be changed once stipulated…”Maria carefully read both sides of the deed and was worried when she heard it: “Doesn't Paul object? Can he agree?”“Of course he didn't agree.”Jose said: “But it's useless, he doesn't agree. The judge said that he inherited all the family assets when the family separated, and it is natural to support Carmen, so he should give more pension.”The judge said that if Pablo did not agree, he would make the final decision to redistribute the family property, giving him and me half of the property. What do you think Pablo can do? So after a big fuss, the matter is resolved and will not change in the future. If they want to default, we will take this paper to sue them, and they will have to go to jail…”After Joseph
Then I went to visit family and friends in each house in the town. There were quite a few New Year's greetings, José had completely broken off his relationship with Carmen, naturally he would not visit them this year, they just needed to give Carmen the monthly pension.When José went to give money, Lola saw that he did not bring any gifts, and she began to scold José for not being filial. José turned around and left without even entering the door. Now that he no longer takes them seriously, he feels much better.Leo's family came over in the afternoon and Maria brought out the snacks she had prepared in advance for Antonio and Sara to eat, mainly some preserved fruits, dried meat, and some homemade nuts.Antonio was completely attracted to Selena when he saw her. He felt that Selena would become very different after not seeing her for a few days. There is a soft glow on her face and her lips look moist. Wearing a pink wool cape-style coat, she looked very delicate and charming, making
