Mabel Quinn washed her hands and sat down in her seat. Her mother took the initiative to pick some food into her bowl, which made Mabel feel a little flattered and somewhat surreal.
From childhood to adulthood, in her memory, her mother had hardly ever picked food for her, even during family meals, which were always indifferent and cold.
"A few days ago, because of your brother's situation, I blamed you. Don't take it to heart, dear. I was just worried for him and spoke out of urgency," Evelina said.
Mabel shook her head and replied, "Mom, I understand."
"As long as you understand. At the end of the day, a family still relies on the man to support it and carry on the family line. I pay more attention to your brother because I hope he can hold up this family. That way, you and I won't be looked down upon in the future."
