Chapter 429: Chapter 429: Sisi Gets Beaten
Even though Liu Sisi tried her best to keep her company, Ms. Yao only stayed for a short while before getting up to say goodbye.
She handed over the three lanterns, one large and two small, to Liu Sisi.
“Your father made these lanterns overnight, and I hurried to give them to you… Your brother, he… He doesn’t know how to do things in moderation, and as his younger sister, you shouldn’t be too upset with him…”
“Mom! What are you talking about?”
Without waiting for Ms. Yao to finish, Liu Sisi stood up angrily!
“Mom! If someone else were to say these things, I, Liu Sisi, would let them go, but I cannot accept it coming from you! In this world, is there any big brother like him who sells his sisters to curry favor? He sold Eldest Sister to get himself a wife, Second Sister to have a son, and me to indulge his own pleasures. In his eyes, is there any family affection left to talk about?”
Liu Sisi’s furious accusations left Ms. Yao at a loss for how to respond.
Tears streamed down her face as she quickly turned away, secretly wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes. Her voice was filled with sorrow, “Si Er, even if siblings break their bones, they’re still connected by their tendons. No matter what, you and your big brother are still siblings… Even if he’s not a good brother, he’s still your big brother! Besides, aren’t your days now getting better and better? All of this is credited to your big brother…”
“What credit does my big brother get? If ruining me can be considered a merit, then his merit is truly great!”
Liu Sisi couldn’t hold back her anger, as her tears blurred her vision.
Thinking of how she was wronged and died at the hands of her elder brother, and how this so-called mother knew nothing, how sad! How pitiful! How lamentable!
“By indulging him like this, do you think you’re spoiling him? You’re wrong! What you’re doing is harming him, do you understand? Do you know what it means to spoil someone to death? What you’re doing now is spoiling him to death! Spoiling him to the point he’s lawless, indulging him so much that he even climbs onto your heads to defecate, his excessive pampering has turned him into…”
“Stop talking! You stop talking! I told you not to talk…”
Suddenly, Ms. Yao let out a sharp cry, raised her head, and with a “smack!” slapped Liu Sisi across the face!
“I won’t allow you to speak of him like that!” Ms. Yao yelled at her!
Although the slap wasn’t heavy, it still stung her cheeks!
For a moment, she was completely stunned.
She covered her face, her eyes wide with disbelief!
It took her a long time to comprehend that she, she actually… slapped her!
Ms. Yao also slowly regained her senses, overwhelmed by what had just happened!
She raised her hand, looking at the one that had struck the slap, and slowly withdrew it, gripping it with her other hand, trembling all over.
For quite a while, her pale lips quivered, unable to offer any explanation.
“Si Er, I didn’t mean to…”
Liu Sisi didn’t speak, her eyes wide with disbelief and surprise!
This was the first time in her memory that she had been slapped, and yet the person who slapped her was her own mother, and for such a ridiculous reason!
As she thought about this, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter, which gradually grew louder and louder.
However, the grief in her laughter, inexplicably, made those who heard it feel heartache and dryness in their eyes.
“What happened? What’s going on?”
