I clenched my teeth and didn't say a word. My mother pumped the chicken feather duster on me until I was tired. My mother didn't want to stop. I just stared at her, tears rolling in my eyes.
Later, someone came and robbed the chicken feather duster in his mother's hand. Someone yelled. It was Zhuang Youhui. He stopped in front of me and roared, "aunt, you're too much. Are you going to kill her?"
"Hum!" An Yunying shook her hand and loosened the feather duster. When she saw that I still didn't speak, she sneered, "Tang yuan, I'll put my words here today. If you want to continue to come and go with Qiu Linyan, I'll take an Yunying as your daughter."
"Aunt ANN, don't be angry!" Yan Ruyu had seen enough of the play. She went to an Yunying, took her hand, smiled proudly at me and said, "cousin, please admit your mistake with aunt an. Don't be stubborn. You know, Qiu Linyan is your enemy. You can't even want your mother for your enemy. It's a great unfilial."
"Don't persuade her. I don't think she has my mother at all. They are all from the Qiu family. Let her be the daughter of the Qiu family." An Yunying said coldly.
"Aunt an, my cousin just can't think of it for a moment. After all, the Qiu family is also a celebrity in city A. marrying Zhuang Ershao is tantamount to rising to the sky. My cousin has been used to hard life since childhood. How can she be willing to be close to such a golden turtle son-in-law? If you give her a few more days, maybe she will figure it out, cousin, don't you think so?"
Yan Ruyu winked at me. She was clearly trying to persuade me, but there was a sarcastic tone inside and outside. I almost saw the pride in her eyes. It was like watching a clown.
"Cousin, you too. Now you have become the eldest lady of the dealer. Why do you have to hang yourself in a tree? Aunt an has introduced you to Fang Shao, which is also a kind of talent and loved by everyone. Aunt an picked it for a long time. You can't waste aunt an's kindness."
"Yan Ruyu, where can you interrupt our housework?" Zhuang Youhui interrupted Yan Ruyu's long speech and helped me up from the ground.
"I... I'm just kind!" Yan Ruyu pursed her lips wrongfully.
"Zhuang Youhui, I discipline my daughter. You have no right to interrupt. As the master of the dealer, is that how you talk to your guests? What about your upbringing?" An Yunying whispered.
"Aunt, my upbringing is obviously much better than that of Miss Yan around you. At least I'm not shameless..."
I gently pulled Zhuang Youhui's hand and didn't let him go on. I was in hot pain all over, especially on my back. I only felt numb. My heart was cool and cold into the bone marrow. Did I really do wrong?
If I do something wrong, what is right?
"Aunt ANN, you don't blame me for being talkative. I'm sorry. I just don't want you to quarrel with your cousin again." Yan Ruyu shrunk pitifully with an uneasy face.
"No, Ruyu, you're right. If she had half of your understanding and cleverness, I wouldn't have to feel so bad." An Yunying sighed, took Yan Ruyu's hand and softened her expression: "in a few days, I'll choose a good one for you. You can talk about which one you like."
Immediately, an Yunying turned her head and her expression became cold and fierce: "learn more like jade in the future and see how she is a person. From now on, you should reflect on me at home. You are not allowed to go out until you figure it out."
"Cousin, just stay at home and think about what aunt an said. Don't make her angry anymore. Aunt an does everything for you." Yan Ruyu proudly raised her chin and taunted.
I watched them stand side by side in a close atmosphere. Once again, I felt that like outsiders, my original sadness suddenly turned into uncontrollable anger.
"Mom, even you treat Yan Ruyu better than me. In your eyes, a obedient, clever and boastful woman is more intimate and meaningful than blood relationship."
