Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role

Chapter 278 The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character in the Double Life Story 4

Pei Qinghui carried the bag, held Wei Lingruo's hand, and returned to where he lived.

This place was even more dilapidated than Wei Lingruo had imagined. The paint on the walls had almost fallen off, revealing the bare interior. The furniture was also older than the original room.

There are two bedrooms and one living room. The space in the two bedrooms is not big, and there are beds in both bedrooms. Although the things look a little old, they are still very clean and tidy. It can be seen that the owner cleans up frequently.

"You can live here. I'll change the sheets and everything later." This bedroom was originally Pei Qinghui's bedroom. It had good lighting. The other bedroom was not well lit and was not often used because it would leak on rainy days.

"Thank you, brother." Wei Lingruo smiled sweetly at him.

I packed the bag of things I brought and changed the bed sheets.

Pei Qinghui patted her head and said, "Xiao Ruo, go and have a rest first. I'll go make dinner and wake you up later."

The little girl is still young. After suffering such a blow today, her body must be unable to bear it.

Wei Lingruo was also a little sleepy. After all, this body was still small, and she felt that she could hardly lift her eyelids. She nodded and went to the bedroom to rest.

kitchen.

Pei Qinghui took out the bacon that he had always been reluctant to eat. Even though he was only twelve years old, his cooking skills were already very proficient.

Usually he just dealt with it casually, but today was different. The little girl was still growing and he couldn't deal with her casually.

When Wei Lingruo woke up, she saw a table full of delicious food.

"Xiao Ruo, eat more." Pei Qinghui picked up a lot of meat for her, but his own bowl was full of vegetables.

"Brother, eat too." Wei Lingruo looked at Pei Qinghui who was like a little adult. He was obviously also a child, but he acted like an adult.

After finishing the meal, Pei Qinghui cleared the things on the table and asked Wei Lingruo to sit on the sofa.

He took out his childhood toys, handed them to the little girl, and let her play with them for a while.

Wei Lingruo took the toy and fiddled with it casually.

Although Pei Qinghui is still quite poor now, Wei Lingruo knows that this is only temporary.

After staying at Pei Qinghui's home for a few days, the day of his parents' funeral soon arrived.

The bodies of the original owner's parents were sent back the day before, and the relatives scraped together enough money to hold the funeral.

Pei Qinghui held her hand the whole time, fearing that this fragile little girl would be sad.

Wei Lingruo's eyes remained red. She knelt in front of her parents' bodies without saying a word.

The relatives around were looking at the little girl and whispering.

"Without my parents, I don't know what to do next."

"Laocheng, why don't you take him home and raise him? We are relatives after all."

"I already have five children at home. I can't afford to raise them. You know the pressure I'm under. Besides, my uncle doesn't say anything, so why should I join in the fun?"

Wei Lingruo's uncle and aunt both looked unhappy. This was not just a visit to their home for a few days, but a matter of raising the child for several years. How could they afford to be treated so badly?

"I don't want to support this burden." The aunt muttered softly and tugged at her husband's sleeve.

Uncle Wei glared at his aunt, and it seemed as if he was thinking the same thing.

Others saw their reluctance and advised, "Keep her. She can do housework for you. When she grows up, you can marry her off and get a dowry. It's a good deal."

"It's easy to say, why don't you raise it?" Aunt Wei rolled her eyes viciously.

The little girl was pushed around like an unwanted thing. She held the hand of the boy beside her tightly, and the uneasy warmth in her palm was passed to Pei Qinghui.

Pei Qinghui seemed to notice her uneasiness and gave Wei Lingruo a soothing look.

"Let Lingruo follow me, I will take good care of her." Pei Qinghui stood up, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.

"Then it's settled. You raise her." Uncle Wei spoke quickly, fearing that no one would take over and he would have to raise this adopted sister's daughter himself.

The others looked at the still-young Pei Qinghui. Although some felt that it was unreliable to raise a twelve-year-old boy, no one raised any objection.

After all, no one wants to have an extra burden and another mouth to feed at home.

Wei Lingruo could actually understand them. After all, everyone has their own selfish desires. Raising a girl who is not of one's own blood is also a burden. The relatives of the original owner's parents are all living an ordinary life, so one cannot be too demanding on them to support her.

The original owner did not hate her uncles. Although they did not love her and made her do most of the work, they also gave her food and paid for her schooling.

Although her aunt cursed at her, she really adopted her and never beat or scolded her. She just didn't treat her well.

Originally, Wei Lingruo had no intention of following this group of relatives. She planned to go to a welfare institution and wait until she grew up before contacting the male and female protagonists to complete the mission.

Now she is in no mood to live in someone else's house and suffer the cold shoulder, or to chase after the male protagonist and be his nanny.

Pei Qinghui just happened to appear, and Wei Lingruo curled her lips.

I don’t want to work hard anymore, my brother supports me.

After the funeral, everyone left in a hurry. The original owner's uncle and aunt came over and stuffed a few hundred yuan into Wei Lingruo's pocket with a cold face, as a token of their relationship.

If Wei Lingruo didn't want it, and she didn't want to owe her uncle and aunt anything, she would just treat them as a familiar stranger.

After she waved her hand to refuse, Uncle Wei and Aunt Wei left quickly, fearing that she would ask for the money back.

Wei Lingruo:......

Pei Qinghui walked forward and took her hand, "Let's go home."

After returning home, Pei Qinghui solemnly said to Wei Lingruo, "From today on, you will live with me, Xiaoruo, I will take good care of you like a younger sister."

After saying that, he touched Wei Lingruo's head.

"I will be a good brother, and you will be my sister from now on."

It was obvious that with his conditions, he was not suitable to support another person, but he felt uncomfortable when he saw the little girl being rejected by others.

If she followed those people, she would definitely have a hard time.

Wei Lingruo blinked and said, "Okay, brother."

With one more person in the house, Pei Qinghui tidied up the place again, making more space. He put away all the things Wei Lingruo had brought with him one by one, and it took him a long time to tidy up the place before he stopped.

"Brother will take you out to buy daily necessities." Pei Qing looked back at her ill-fitting pink skirt, which looked like it had been worn for many years.

The two of them came to the market. The things here were cheaper than in the store. Pei Qinghui bought some daily necessities first, and then took her into a nicely decorated clothing store to buy clothes.

"Brother, this is too expensive. Just buy me two pieces at the market." Wei Lingruo stopped him.

She knew that Pei Qinghui was not rich now and had lived a very frugal life in the past.

Pei Qinghui is still wearing the washed-out shirt that he wore when they first met.

Pei Qinghui shook his head and patted himself, "Don't worry, I can still afford a few pieces of clothing."

After going in and taking a look, he thought the colorful children's clothes were so cute. When he had money, he would definitely buy them all for his sister.
