"Mom, this is all your hard-earned money. Do you really expect him to repay you in the future?"
My mother was making shoes. Her eyes were getting worse and worse, and she couldn't even see the things in her hands clearly under the light.
"We're a family. I don't need him to repay me."
I sighed helplessly, "Mom, you think we're a family. Have you ever got anything from them?"
After a long silence, she said in a low voice, "Your father is gone. We have to take care of his family for him."
I knew that as long as my father didn't show up, my mother would never give up on this family.
However, I didn't know where my father lived at this point. If I directly question my grandmother, I will definitely alert her.
However, I would never let my mother give the money to them.
Early the next morning, Thomas went to work in the downtown. Because he didn't get the money, he didn't treat my mother and me well.
I didn't care, but my mother felt a little guilty and gave some allowance.
In the evening, my grandmother came to have dinner with us.
I was going to the downtown for SAT the day after tomorrow. The school booked a hotel for us.
