In her previous life, Ye Jin was pure and kind, but she was schemed against by her stepmother and stepsister, which led to her losing her eyesight and being forced to marry the neighborhood rogue.<...
Ye Jin strolled outside and pretended to pick up some dry firewood and drag it back.
Xiaohuo first stood on her shoulder, then picked a leaf and hid mischievously in the firewood pile.
Wang Fengqin squatted in the yard, stretched her neck and looked in one direction.
Now, whenever Ye Jin goes out, her heart tightens, fearing that she will never come back.
"Girl, where have you been in such a cold weather?"
Wang Fengqin rubbed her hands and blew air into her palms continuously.
"I was bored at home, so I went up the mountain to collect firewood."
Ye Jin casually threw the firewood into the corner, and Wang Fengqin frowned tightly.
"You went out for an afternoon and picked up these few pieces of firewood?"
"Collecting firewood is too tiring. I just treat it as exercise."
Ye Jin took away the largest leaf, and a small fire suddenly came out.
Wang Fengqin just walked up to scold her, and was frightened by the fiery red little thing and almost lost her soul.
"Ah—what is this?"
Xiaohuo jumped onto Wang Fengqin and tried to pull at her sleeve.
"It's just a little squirrel. Xiao Huo is so cute, how could Mommy find it scary?"
Wang Fengqin slapped Xiaohuo on the head, and Ye Jin quickly held Xiaohuo in her arms.
"You naughty little thing, who told you to run out on your own?"
Wang Fengqin's slap missed and she stopped in mid-air awkwardly.
Ye Jin teased Xiaohuo, took it back to her room, and locked the door habitually.
"You don't have many days left to live, and you still have the leisure to keep a pet! It's good this way, so when you die, you'll have someone to accompany you, and you won't be so lonely."
Wang Fengqin gritted her teeth and cursed softly.
"I won't live anymore, I won't live anymore!"
The sound of something falling was heard in the room again, and Wang Fengqin strode into the room.
Ever since Zhang Duo had eye problems, she has become very irritable.
She knew that a stable mood would help her recover from her illness, but she still went crazy at home at any time.
Wang Fengqin sometimes feels annoyed. No one wants to become blind, and her daughter's behavior at this time is making her feel embarrassed.
"Stop messing around! The wound will start bleeding again soon, and we'll have to wait a few more days!"
"I won't make a fuss. How could I not make a fuss? You don't know the pain of a blind person. Every day when I open my eyes, it's pitch black. I can't see a thing!"
"I don't know what my bed looks like, I don't know if it's day or night, I don't even know you put something in the eggs I ate! Mom! How could you do such a disgusting thing? I want to vomit just thinking about it now!"
Zhang Duo started to dry heave as she spoke. She could never get over this incident, and it would be a psychological trauma for her for the rest of her life.
"I was wrong to do this, but I didn't mean to pick on you. I just wanted to disgust that little bitch. Who knew you would snatch the egg away? You were so quick. What could I do?"
Wang Fengqin sighed and Zhang Duo became angrier the more she listened.
"Don't you know how to tell me when you see me eating? You want to hurt me like this, are you really my biological mother?"
"I've already apologized to you and told you that this was an accident. What else do you want from me?"
"What do I want you to do? If Ye Jin refuses to give me her cornea, you give me one!"
Zhang Duo finally spoke out her true feelings: it doesn’t matter who becomes blind, as long as it’s not her!
Wang Fengqin panicked immediately when she heard this. Her daughter didn't want to be blind, and she didn't want to be blind even more!
Although only one cornea was removed, leaving the person half blind, how can what two eyes can see be compared to what one eye can see?
"Don't think too much, she will give it to you!"
"She said no in front of so many people, haven't you noticed? She's different now! You can't control her anymore!"
"You didn't go out that day, how did you know?"
Wang Fengqin felt puzzled. Her daughter rarely went out since her eye problems began, and she had no idea where she had heard the rumor.
"Don't worry about how I know this, I just know it. If you can't control Ye Jin, just give me a cornea!"
Zhang Duo said viciously, and Wang Fengqin looked at her like a stranger.
I am so devoted to this daughter, I give her all the delicious food, and I have done so many immoral things for her. How could she say such things?
"Doctor Liu said that I'm old and my cornea is not good. If I give it to you, it won't last long. By then, we'll both be blind, and that won't be worth it."
Wang Fengqin had already thought of a countermeasure, but Zhang Duo didn't believe even a single punctuation mark.
"These are all excuses. I know you don't want to give me your cornea, but I'm your biological daughter! I'm only 19 years old and will be graduating from technical secondary school soon. I can't live without my eyes!"
"I'll find a way. Don't worry. It won't solve the problem. Isn't there still a month left?"
"I can't wait any longer. I can't wait even for a day. If this goes on, I'm going to go crazy!"
Zhang Duo originally only had one eye damaged, but during the operation, the other eye became infected. Now she has to cover both eyes with gauze, causing her to be unable to see with both eyes, which made her very angry.
Ye Jin stood at the door, listening to their conversation with a smile on her face. This was the result she had guessed a long time ago.
Zhang Duo will not let her go, and Wang Fengqin will not let her go even more. They keep her and tolerate her only because she is still useful.
In her previous life, she was fooled by their sweet words, which eventually led to her losing her eyes and dying alone and miserably.
Ye Jin clenched her fists. As long as she found her sister's whereabouts, the mother and daughter would no longer be of any use to her and could be abandoned at any time.
Guessing that the two were almost done talking, Ye Jin walked to the counter, poured a glass of boiled water, and drank it calmly.
Wang Fengqin was so frightened that sweat broke out on her forehead. After comforting Zhang Duo, she quickly retreated from her room.
She used to think that her daughter was her hope and her expectation for the next life, but now she realizes that she is a blood-feeding leech, selfish and without any conscience.
Compared to this disobedient daughter, Ye Jin in the past was really well-behaved. She would not dare to go against the rules when Ye Jin pointed east, and she would keep the house tidy every day.
But no matter how good Ye Jin is or how bad Zhang Duo is, Zhang Duo is her daughter who she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy. They are connected by blood, and she will never give up on her no matter what!
"Mom, why do you look unhappy? Did my sister make you angry again?"
Afraid that Wang Fengqin didn't notice him, Ye Jin took the initiative to say hello.
Wang Fengqin, who had done something wrong, was so frightened by the sudden sound that she did a standing long jump on flat ground.
"You, you, when were you here?"
"Don't worry, Mom. I just came out of the room to drink some water. I didn't hear a word you and sister said."
Ye Jin's smile grew brighter, and Wang Fengqin stared at Ye Jin's smiling face with a look of surprise and doubt.
