It was a small mountain village, not far from the city of Brayden, but here the city people rarely go.
The old woman surnamed Lin, the village people like to call her Mrs. Knight, formerly a noble lady, then framed and forced to stay in the small mountain village.
And then because of dissatisfaction with the outside world and worldly strife and do not want to leave the simple and loyal villagers stay here, never married, but did take in a child, named Franklin.
“Franklin, get a cup of water for auntie, auntie now has a body injury, not convenient to move.” Mrs. Knight said softly, stroking the child’s hair.
“Grandma, do you want some water then? I’ll pour you one too.” Franklin tilted his head innocently.
Looking at the child’s kind and lovely appearance, Mrs. Knight smiled with satisfaction.
Franklin was also abandoned by his parents at the river in the mountain village, and was adopted by Mrs. Knight.
“Auntie, here’s your water.” Franklin carefully handed the water to Dolly.
After lying in bed for so long, Dolly sometimes really thought she would never get up, but she would never give in to fate. Somehow, vaguely, she always felt that a very magical power was calling her.
“Okay, thanks Franklin,” Dolly said, pinching the child’s cheek.
The child was very attractive to Dolly, and she had wanted to adopt him as her godson several times, but she was not completely well yet, and her memories were all gone, so she had no way to mention this to Mrs. Knight.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, day and night alternate constantly, and the days pass day by day, gradually, Dolly’s health has improved.
However, she still could not remember her name, so she was no longer called Dolly, but took Mrs. Knight’s last name, Myra Knight.
“Myra, how is it?” Mrs. Knight looked at the woman in front of her with worry.
“Ma’am, it’s okay, you see, I can do it.” Myra spun around in place a few times.
Looking at Myra’s quick recovery, Mrs. Knight’s mouth curled up in a satisfied curve.
It’s time to find a job after so long. These days, eating and living in Mrs. Knight’s house must have cost her a lot of money.
“Madam, I want to find a job.” Myra suddenly spoke up and looked at Mrs. Knight seriously.
Mrs. Knight did not feel surprised by this sudden statement.
“Okay, I’ll keep an eye out for you, but where do you want to work? In our place or somewhere else? Not far from the mountain village, there is a prosperous city with more opportunities, but I suggest you stay here first, after all, your body has just recently recovered.” Mrs. Knight replied.
She was right, in that so-called prosperous city, one was unfamiliar with the place, and the memory was already missing, even survival was a problem, so it was better to exercise here first.
“Good.”
The two of them hit it off and soon Myra entered a supermarket as a cashier.
“Mom!” Franklin suddenly shouted.
When she looked up, Mrs. Knight and Franklin were looking at Myra at the door of the supermarket.
“Hey, you guys are here.” Myra shouted excitedly.
Myra had wanted to adopt Franklin as her godson, and Franklin had called Myra his godmother at first, but later realized that Franklin did not have a real mother anyway, so she just let him call her “mom” instead.
Mrs. Knight had concerns about how this would affect Myra’s future, especially her marriage, but Myra didn’t care.
“Yo, Myra, you’re having a baby so young?” A new supervisor said deliberately, glancing at her.
She was jealous of Myra, not because she had offended her, but because she was too good.
“Yes, this is my son.” Myra laughed awkwardly.
“So what does your husband do?” The supervisor asked deliberately.
She hadn’t heard that this Myra was married.
“Uh, I’m not married.” Myra smiled.
Instantly, the supervisor walked away smiling as if she had gotten some great news.
“Mom, who is that person? Did she bully you?” Franklin looked seriously at the woman in front of him.
“No, mommy is fine. How does Franklin feel about school today? Did you listen to the teacher?” Myra gently stroked the child’s head.
Today was Franklin’s first day of school, and for work reasons, Myra could not send him to school.
“Fine, Mom, don’t worry, I’m your son!” Franklin patted his chest, a big man sweat air.
“Hey, did you guys hear? That Myra actually has a son, really, and she is not married, God, how can we have such a woman in the supermarket, no self-love at all, how humiliating it must be …”
The supervisor exaggerated her sarcasm in front of the other leaders.
The small mountain village is a relatively conservative and traditional village, so the woman’s innocence and marriage is particularly important.
Now, Myra, a woman who is not yet married, suddenly has a child, and naturally there is no shortage of gossip from others. However, when they knew that the child was Franklin, all of them admired Myra’s courage.
“Oh, come on, Franklin is Myra’s godson.” Suddenly, a leader said directly.
Instantly, the supervisor froze for a moment.
But she had just heard the child call her “mom”, not “godmother”!
Franklin had been calling Myra “Godmother” before, but the child had never met his own mother since he was born, so Myra simply let him call herself “Mom”. Another leader explained.
Looking at the two leaders in the office who spoke for Myra, the supervisor suddenly felt a little ashamed.
It seems that this Myra, in the eyes of these leaders, is really not low status!
The supervisor’s eyes flashed a cold light.
But on what basis? She is just a small cashier, why would she be liked by so many people?
The supervisor’s aura was a bit bitter.
In a collective, if a woman stands out, it will definitely cause some other people to be jealous. This is an immutable truth. Even in the simplest of villages, there are a few rats that spoil the congee.
Myra, how hypocritical you are to have fooled all the people! I will definitely make you show yourself!
The supervisor’s fist, clenched tightly.
“Mom, what’s wrong with you? Are you very tired?” Franklin rushed over to help Myra, who was having trouble walking.
Myra was also curious, how the supermarket leader suddenly asked her to unload the goods today, that is not at all her work scope.
“It’s okay, mommy will be fine after resting for a while.” Myra gently stroked the child’s hair.
