Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 1552 Good Luck Continues (42)
Actually, Li Qiuyun initially wanted her girlfriend, Li's sister-in-law, to help her take care of the child. She thought that since Li's sister-in-law was already taking care of the child, why not help her? She didn't mention money at first. Later, when she saw that Li's sister-in-law was unwilling, she brought up money, but only said ten yuan.

She thought she could get someone to help her take care of two children for just ten yuan? Did she think everyone was stupid? Later, seeing that Sister-in-law Li was unwilling, she gritted her teeth and said she would give twenty yuan, which was the most she could give. But Sister-in-law Li still refused, which naturally made Li Qiuyun angry.

—Did Li Qiuyun ever consider that, if she were in someone else's shoes, would she be willing to take care of two newborn babies for only twenty yuan? I guess she wouldn't.

Having no other choice, she had to swallow her pride and ask Li's mother, just like Li's father, if she could help take care of her child.

Although Li's mother had divorced Li's father, she and her mother had been mother and daughter for many years, and she felt that the bond between them still existed. She thought that if she asked her mother for help, perhaps the mother would help her.

—She probably forgot that she had spoken ill of Li's mother to Li's father, and Li's mother knew about it. She had already spoken ill of others, yet she still had the nerve to beg Li's mother. Li Qiuyun was really speechless. It can only be said that she had no other choice but to try anything in desperation.

Seeing that she had already divorced Li's father, Li Qiuyun still came to ask her to take care of the child, just like in her dream, Li's mother couldn't help but find the girl quite funny.

She hadn't forgotten that in her dream, she helped Li Qiuyun take care of her child and also looked after Li's grandfather. In the end, when her daughter came back after her divorce, she lost her job and was scolded by this girl and the rest of the Li family for eating at home. Even if she hadn't divorced Li's father, she would never have helped her take care of any children again.

He was wondering how this girl had the nerve to come over, considering she had already divorced Li's father and was still asking him to help take care of her two children.

And at first, he wanted to get his girlfriend for free without mentioning money, probably because he wanted her to help him carry things for free. He was really greedy.

Oh, she has nothing to do with Li Qiuyun now, yet Li Qiuyun wants her, an outsider, to quit her job and take care of her child for free. What is she thinking?

If she were still in the Li family and hadn't dreamt about what happened in her previous life, and didn't know that her daughter would suffer so much afterward—losing her job, getting divorced, and being scolded by Li Qiuyun—she might still help her take care of the child.

But now that she's no longer in the Li family, and having dreamt of what happened in her previous life, she's filled with resentment towards Li Qiuyun. How could she possibly help her take care of the children? The reason she hasn't retaliated against Li Qiuyun is because she's too weak and doesn't know how. Now that Li Qiuyun has two children and no one is helping her take care of them, she needs her help, and if she doesn't help, it will make her anxious, which can be considered a small revenge. So how could Li's mother possibly give up such a good opportunity for revenge and help her take care of the children?

In the original world, when the original owner returned, it was normal for Li Qiuyun to scold her for eating and drinking for free. By then, her child was already grown up and no longer needed Li's mother to take care of him. Li's mother was no longer useful to her, so she could scold her as she pleased. Otherwise, if she still needed Li's mother's help, she wouldn't have been so foolish as to scold her while Li's mother was helping her take care of the child. Otherwise, if Li's mother was still helping Li Qiuyun take care of the child and Li Qiuyun was still scolding Linlang, Li's mother wouldn't have been foolish enough to continue helping her take care of the child.

Li Qiuyun was displeased when her mother refused. She thought her mother had really grown too big for her britches. Before, when she was in the Li family, her stepmother, Li Qiuyun, was always pampered by her grandmother and father, and her mother was incredibly attentive. But now that they were divorced, this was her attitude—a complete change of heart. She thought, "She's no good either; all that kindness before was just an act." If Linlang knew what Li Qiuyun was thinking, she'd probably be speechless. Her mother wasn't even a member of the Li family anymore, and she had treated her badly before, constantly speaking ill of her to her father. It was a miracle her mother hadn't kicked her out. She expected someone she had previously treated so badly to treat her warmly now? How could she be so arrogant and overconfident?

Although she was unhappy with her mother's refusal, Li Qiuyun could not find a suitable person to help her, so she could only continue to beg her mother, saying, "I will give you fifteen yuan a month to help me, Auntie."

Li Qiuyun thought that if she offered ten yuan, her mother might not agree, but if she offered fifteen yuan, her mother would surely agree, since her temporary job only paid about twenty yuan a month.

The reason I didn't give Li's mother twenty yuan like I did for her was ultimately because I thought Li's mother was easy to bully, so I gave her even less than I did for Li's mother.

In fact, Li Qiuyun had considered asking her aunts, uncles, and other relatives for help, but after looking around, she felt that her mother was the most suitable because her mother was the person she knew best. She hadn't spent much time with the others, and they were just relatives who had a casual relationship. She didn't know what kind of people they were, so she didn't dare to let them take care of the child.

Like Li's mother, she dared to leave her child with her because she understood the situation.

Although Li's mother and father were divorced, it didn't matter. She wouldn't let Li's mother go to the Li family to help her take care of the child. Li's mother didn't need to worry about it being awkward to go to the Li family to help her take care of the child. She could leave the child with Li's mother and let her take care of the child because she trusted Li's mother. She would send the child to Li's mother before going to work in the morning and pick the child up from her when she came back from get off work in the afternoon. How wonderful and convenient was that? Li Qiuyun was getting happier and happier as she thought about it.

However, Li Qiuyun's dream was quickly shattered by her mother's refusal.

Even if Li Qiuyun offered money, Li's mother wouldn't agree. First, the money Li Qiuyun offered was less than what she earned at work, so why should she lose money to help her? Second, taking care of two young children was very hard work, much harder than her job, so why would she choose hard work over an easy one? Third, like Li's sister-in-law and the others, Li's mother was also afraid that if the children got sick, Li Qiuyun would risk her own health and even make her pay for the medical expenses. In that case, the money Li Qiuyun offered would be wasted, and she would have worked for nothing. Therefore, Li's mother naturally wouldn't take on this troublesome task.

Li Qiuyun was disappointed to see that her mother was still unwilling to help her even though she had finally agreed to give her the money. She asked, "What do I have to do for you to help me?"

Li's mother said indifferently, "I'm divorced from your father. We're strangers now. What reason do I have to help a stranger? Go find your new stepmother to help you."

Li Qiuyun saw that her mother was adamant about this point and refused to budge, so she had no choice but to give up.

Seeing that she couldn't get help from Li's mother, Li Qiuyun immediately changed her expression and became rude to her mother, sneering, "You're divorced now, so you really think you're all grown up. If it were before, would you dare to talk to me like that? My dad would have cursed you to death!"
