Hearing the voice, with the help of the dim light, I recognized that woman was my mother.
She was disheveled and a little disheveled. Her hair was sticking to her face because she had not washed for so many days.
My mother's clothes were so dirty and her sleeves had been polished. Next to her seat, a bucket of instant noodles was placed at her feet.
"Faye, look at you. Your daughter looks much better than you."
"My daughter? Is my daughter here? Where is she? "
My mom glanced around the hooligan. When she saw me carrying a paper bag, she gave me a big smile.
My mom pushed away the man's hand and ran to me with a smile. "I know you won't leave me alone."
I gritted my teeth and glared at my mother. "Didn't you say that they would chop off your fingers? Why are you still sitting here gambling? How much have you lost? Can you learn from your mistake? It would be better to spend the money on anything else. Why can't you quit gambling? "
My mother didn't want to listen to my babbling. She looked away and scratched her itchy hair.
Seeing that someone was looking back because of my voice, my mother raised her hand to greet them with a smile and said, "You go on."
My mom glared at me and grabbed the bag of money from my hand quickly, "You're too nagging at such a young age. Anyway, I've got the money. Don't talk nonsense!"
"Give me back the money." Looking at my mother, I regret giving her money.
My mom held the money tightly and said, "Really, I didn't lie to you. Without these money, my fingers would be gone. I said you would pay for me, so they allowed me to sit there and continue playing."
As soon as my mother finished speaking, the hooligan grabbed the paper bag from my mother's hand and poked his head to look at the money in it.
My mother never treated these people in the same way as she treated me. She came close to that man like a pug and said, "40000, you can take 40000, 10000 is still mine."
The hooligan gave my mother a stare, took out a pile of money from the pocket and threw it back to her. "You old bitch! You lied to your daughter!"
My mom took the money quickly and said to the hooligan, "thank you, sir."
The hooligan took the money and went into one of the inner rooms.
I glared at my mom, "what the hell is? Did you lie to me again?"
My mom was holding the money in her arms, and when she approached me, she began to touch me.
"What are you doing?"
"Do you have any more money with you?"
"How can I have money? How can I possibly have money?"
My mom rolled her eyes at me in disapproval and said, "I know you're a heartless person. You wouldn't remember to bring me some money. If I didn't ask you for another ten thousand, you would give me forty thousand. Then I'll have to live on air in the following days? I can't believe that you've married such a rich man like Robbie. Your pockets are fucking clean. "
My mom saw that nothing was found on me, so she turned around and wanted to go back to the gambling table.
I grabbed the back of my mother's collar and said, "Faye, can you quit gambling or not? Can you stop it? Now go with me. If you continue to stay, don't say they want your finger, even if want your life I also won't tube. This is the last time."
My mom shook off my hand on her collar rudely. She frowned and looked at me. "You are as shameless as your dad. You want to dump me, right? If so, just dump me. After all, he has run away with other women. I don't care about you at all. What's the use of you on me? What else can you do except for dragging me? What's wrong with you? You have just married a rich man, so you become unyielding? I only spend you a little money, you feel distressed? You are as cold as your father. "
