Chapter 829: Chapter 829: Substitute Bride Sister 44

For many years, the coldness of the younger daughter made Mrs. Li feel so aggrieved, so wronged.

She’s a mother, a mother who’s concerned about her eldest daughter. Was she wrong? She’s just a mother.

As a mother, caring about her daughter is perfectly natural, a matter of course.

But this natural concern, in the eyes of the younger daughter, is betrayal.

She betrayed the younger daughter for the sake of the eldest daughter.

So, not to mention the monthly pocket money, she doesn’t even buy her new clothes each season. How aggrieved she feels, who knows?

No matter how much she favors the eldest daughter, she has raised the younger daughter too. She is also the younger daughter’s mother; she has the grace of giving birth and raising her. Why does the younger daughter not respect her?

That damned girl is an unfilial daughter. Her previous filial piety was surely all an act. Now that she’s done acting, she doesn’t want to keep up the act anymore.

It must be like this.

Otherwise, why wouldn’t that damned girl, who has so much money, buy one more piece of cashmere?

Why wouldn’t she buy it for her?

In that damned girl’s heart, she doesn’t even have her as a mother.

The more Mrs. Li thought about it, the more she cried, unable to control herself.

Mr. Li took off his new clothes, changed into old ones, and said to her, "Now you’re crying. Back then, when Yuan Chun suffered so much grievance, you favored Hong Chun and still wanted Yuan Chun and Meng Fei to save her. Tell me, how could that child not feel cold-hearted toward you."

"You only see Hong Chun going to jail. Don’t you see Yuan Chun’s grievance?"

"Hong Chun going to jail is her own doing, self-inflicted, deserving what she got."

"But why should Yuan Chun suffer such grievance?"

"Thankfully, Yuan Chun was lucky and wasn’t trafficked away back then, or the grass on her grave would be very high."

"Old woman, you were wrong."

"Back then, you shouldn’t have favored Hong Chun."

Mrs. Li wailed, "I’m not biased. What should Hong Chun do?"

"The eldest and her siblings squeezed her out, despised her. If I, as a mother, didn’t favor her, wouldn’t that be forcing Hong Chun to die?"

"Hong Chun suffered so much at the Wu Family, and when she returned home, couldn’t the eldest and others make some allowances for her?"

Mr. Li snorted coldly, "Make allowances? Are you saying Yuan Chun should give up her husband, would that damned girl be satisfied then?"

"You.... you’re being unreasonable. When did I ever ask Yuan Chun to give up Meng Fei for Hong Chun? I just wanted the siblings to help Hong Chun more. After all, all three siblings have homes and businesses, living better lives than Hong Chun. I just thought everyone is family, so they should help each other, but..."

Mr. Li interrupted, "It’s Hong Chun who’s useless, willing to sell her own sister for a man. Humph, old woman, I warn you, that damned girl has been expelled from the family by me. Even if she is released from prison, don’t bring her home, or I’ll chase her out with a stick."

Mrs. Li’s eyes flickered and she started crying again, "Waa waa, you heartless old man, Hong Chun is your daughter, and you really want to throw her out, not let her return home. Waa waa, you heartless old man, how could you treat Hong Chun like this? She’s already at an age with no home or business, how can you not feel any pity for her."

"If I pity her, then who would pity Yuan Chun?"

Mr. Li glared at her, "I won’t argue with an old fool like you."

He took a shovel and went out.

Mrs. Li hurriedly got up from the ground, went to the room, found a stack of money that Mr. Li had hidden, took out two hundred yuan, and secretly tucked it away.
