320 Disappointment
Xue Yan felt that his mother was quite funny at that time, so he couldnāt help but laugh along, āWhen we were at the stall, we saw your brother sneakily hiding in a corner and watching our stall. When we came back, we heard about this and thought it couldnāt be such a coincidence. Thatās why we knew they were pretending.ā
āHe even went to town to keep an eye on our stall?!ā When Liu Guixia found out about this, she was enraged and her eyes almost turned red again. āHe only cares about the money.ā As he said that, she sniffed and laughed, āForget it. I donāt care about them. Iāve already gotten over it. Without them, Iād have a better life.ā
Speaking of this, Liu Guixia couldnāt help but recall her past. While walking back, she spoke to Jiang Yue and Xue Yan in a light manner.
āIn the past, when I was young, your grandma didnāt like me. She thought that since I was a girl, I would belong to someone elseās family sooner or later. She thought that everything good would be given to my brother. Whatever he did wrong, it would always end up as my fault. I would be the one who was beaten and scolded.
āFrom the moment I was of age, she immediately made me go to work. Even if I had a penny, it would be snatched away. He didnāt have to work a day in his life when I was around. Fortunately, when I married your dad, his father was very kind to me. ā
Liu Guixia had never talked about these things before. If she could say it, it meant that she had really gotten over it.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didnāt say anything, they just listened quietly.
āI remember that your grandma kept all the dowries for my brother,ā Liu Guixia continued. āTo be honest, I was so sad I wanted to die. I was the only one in the entire village who didnāt have a dowry. I was sold off. However, to be able to be a family like this⦠It must have been a blessing from several lifetimes. I should have cherished it earlier.ā
āIf they really treated me as their daughter or sister⦠Even if itās just a little,ā Liu Guixia said, āMaybe Iāll forget about it and make up with them one day. I can overlook many things, itās hard for me to be cruel.ā
After a pause, Liu Guixia continued, āBut they didnāt even try, not even a little bit. They just wanted our familyās money. Theyāre just like Daguiās family. I donāt expect them to be able to do it, but I wonāt let them treat our family like they did before.ā
She had been confused for the longest. She wasnāt the only one who had caused the family to suffer a lot of grievances. Finally, a burden she carried for years was finally lifted.
In the past, every time she went back to her motherās house, her husband, her son, and her daughter-in-law would suffer. They just didnāt kick up a fuss for her sake, afraid that she would be even more upset.
Only Sanfu couldnāt control his temper and almost beat up her brother a few times. That family was terrified of Sanfu.
Thinking of her third son, Liu Guixia suddenly changed the topic and asked Xue Yan, āSanfu should be back by now, right? Itās been so long since weāve met him.ā
āDidnāt he send someone back to pass a message last time? He said heāll be back by the end of the month, right? That should be within the next few days.ā Xue Yan replied.
