The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

How did my carefree childhood turn out like this?

Li Tian felt a pang of sadness.

"Where is Nannan now?"

Yuan Jun sighed.

"She should still be in the compound. Where else could she have gone?"

My father doesn't care for me, my mother doesn't love me, and now I'm only being supported by my grandparents.

As childhood friends, there's only so much we can do, but we can't do nothing either.

Li Tian stepped forward.

"Let's go see her."

"Walk."

The three friends went straight to the Zhu family's house.

Zhu Nan's grandparents were both present, but Zhu Nan's father and a very beautiful young woman were also sitting in the living room.

Everyone looked unwell.

It seems we've come at the wrong time.

But since we're already here, it would be quite impolite to immediately back out.

Yuan Jun and Li Muchen nudged Li Tian from both sides, urging her to speak.

Those two disloyal cowards!

Li Tian managed to twist the rope herself, but she could only rush to the front.

"Grandpa Zhu, we're looking for Nannan, is she there?"

"Nannan is inside, why don't you invite her out to play?"

"Okay."

Li Tian and the others quickly went to Zhu Nan's room.

They quickly dug out Zhu Nan, who looked dejected.

Surrounded by them, she walked out of the house like a whirlwind.

However, as soon as they reached a less crowded area, Zhu Nan burst into tears, clinging to Li Tian.

She cried so sadly and helplessly.

Anyone who sees this will be somewhat at a loss.

Li Tian didn't say anything, and only helped Zhu Nan wipe away her tears after she had finished crying.

"Nannan, we're all here. Just say what you need to say."

"Tian Tian, ​​that auntie said she's pregnant with my dad's child, and that it's a boy. If she wants the child, she has to send me away."

"Did your dad agree?"

Zhu Nan nodded.

"After my mother left, my father almost never spoke to me. He hated me."

What a poor little thing.

How innocent!

What did your grandparents say?

"Grandpa said my surname is Zhu, and I am a child of the Zhu family. It's impossible for me to be thrown away. They are negotiating now."

Li Tian was unsure.

If the elderly couple in the Zhu family could have kept their son in check, none of this would have happened.

"The aunt said she would give my grandma ten yuan a month so I could go live with her."

Li Tian got a little angry when she heard that.

"No, Nan Nan, you absolutely cannot agree to this."

"Your maternal grandmother treated you so poorly, and it's even harder to say about the others. Once you go there to live, you won't be able to compare with the Zhu family in any way, and you might even have difficulty seeing us again."

Zhu Nan covered her face with her hands.

"I'm just a burden that everyone dislikes, what can I do?"

Li Tian hugged her friend.

"Go and beg the person in your family who treats you the best. In ten years, when we're adults, we won't need to rely on anyone anymore."

"If your dad refuses to budge, then demand a lot of money from him. If he doesn't give it to you, go to his workplace and cause a scene. That woman can cause a scene, so can you. Anyway, supporting you is his legal obligation, and he has to fulfill it."

Even without family ties, it's difficult no matter what you do.

But it's even harder if you don't fight for it.

"Nannan, no matter how bad things get, you must not neglect your studies. Your own abilities are the foundation for your future."

Zhu Nan started sobbing again.

"Tian Tian, ​​my mind is a mess, I can't concentrate on my studies at all, and I did terribly on my final exams."

That's normal.

This is beyond the capacity of a nine-year-old child to cope with.

Li Tian could understand, but she didn't support it.

As a friend, she felt she had to give her a heads-up.

"Zhu Nan, your despondency won't earn you their pity; they'll only despise you more. Only when you shine brightly and show them that you're worth nurturing can you gain a better life."

Without love, the only option is to tie them to interests, making them see Zhu Nan's value.

Zhu Nan looked at Li Tian with a puzzled expression.

A child who is not loved will also be left uneducated.

Since she had brought it up, Li Tian had to make it clear.

"Your grandparents must have been disappointed in your father, right? If they thought you could be the future of the family, wouldn't they be more willing to focus their energy on you?"

"The elderly are annoyed by their son, and they'll only be more annoyed by you. If they can't see a future in you, even if they keep you, they'll just take care of you casually and won't put much effort into it."

Yuan Jun and Li Muchen exchanged a glance.

Li Tian knows so much!

They were a little confused, yet they also felt that it made a lot of sense.

Zhu Nan thought for a moment.

"You mean I have to be obedient, well-behaved, and study hard for my grandparents to take good care of me?"

Li Tian nodded.

"That's the idea. If you can't get it from them, you have to fight for it yourself."

"If you don't fight, you'll have nothing left."

Zhu Nan wiped her eyes with the back of her hand; she understood.

She also knew that Li Tian was doing it all for her own good.

It was truly for her own good.

"Tian Tian, ​​I will cheer up."

Li Tian smiled.

"I was a bit blunt just now, please don't take it to heart, but I absolutely did not mean to mock you, otherwise I wouldn't have said those things."

Zhu Nan quickly pulled Li Tian back.

She can't afford to lose these friends.

"Tian Tian, ​​I'm not stupid. I know who's good to me."

"Can I come to you for lessons in the future?"

"Sure, my family isn't busy right now. You can come over as long as I'm here."

"Okay, I don't want to go out because I'm afraid people will laugh at me, but I can't always stay at home."

Li Tian nodded and gave her an encouraging hug.

Yuan Jun scratched his head.

"My home isn't really suitable for studying. My younger sister is very naughty now, and she loves to tear up my books. I've hit her several times, but she still does it again next time."

"Where's your mother? Doesn't she care?"

"My mom is very busy now, she comes home even later than my dad. She and an aunt have contracted a garment factory, and they can't take care of us anymore."

"I usually have to stay home to take care of my younger sister, so I don't have much time to go out and play."

Du Juan is skilled with her hands and has made several dresses for Li Tian.

He's very capable to dare to open a factory with someone!

Li Tian admires self-reliant people the most.

"Your mother is amazing; she'll definitely be a strong woman in the future."

"Don't you see anything wrong with running a factory? Doesn't everyone envy those who work in offices?"

Li Tian shook her head vigorously.

"No job is inherently superior or inferior. Why are you being so old-fashioned, you little kid? Earning a living through your own abilities is something to be proud of."

Yuan Jun scratched his head and laughed, his big white teeth shining brightly on his face.

"Your mother was definitely among the first to get rich, so as her son, you must support her wholeheartedly."

"Okay, I will take good care of my little sister and not distract Mom."

Li Tian looked at Yuan Jun with a hint of envy; this guy had directly become a second-generation rich kid.

I should visit Dujuan sometime; maybe she can offer some advice, and I can also learn about the current market.

Those who dare to try new things and be pioneers will always be at the forefront of the times.

With Li Tian's affirmation, Yuan Jun became much more confident.

"I also think my mom is very capable; she brings a lot of money home, more than my dad earns. It's just that my grandma doesn't really like her doing that."
