For some reason, after Aunt Zhang said it's all for your own good, Tiantian suddenly became very excited and her eyes turned red in an instant.
"When dad died, you took me to remarry and said it was for my own good! You gave all the good things to that evil-minded girl and said it was for my own good! You didn't let me go to school and said it was for my own good! You sent me to the prime minister's mansion to be a maid for my own good! Everything you did was for my own good!" Tiantian paused, her emotions stabilized a little, and tears rolled down her cheeks like beads with broken strings.
She said, "Do you know how many people pointed at my nose and scolded me after you remarried? They said you were shameless and I was shameless. The man you married died early, and they said you were a jinx and that I was a jinx. Can't you see that his daughter beats and scolds me every day? I want to go to school, but you say a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. Yet, you sent my so-called sister to school. Are you really doing this for my own good? Why are you so nice to her? If it's for your so-called reputation, then there's no need! My reputation was ruined the day you remarried!"
Tiantian choked up and sobbed, "You sent me to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be a maid. Do you know how much I suffered to go from the lowest servant to the personal maid of the Prime Minister's daughter? The eldest daughter is a good person. She said that she would take me to the palace to see the world today, but you insisted on taking me back and entrusted me to two strangers without any explanation! In fact, you did all this for yourself, right? Don't involve me..."
Tiantian's words seemed to have been held back for a long time and finally burst out. After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath, as if the thing that had been weighing on her heart disappeared in an instant, and she felt a lot more relaxed. But when she saw Aunt Zhang's hurt eyes and astonished expression, she felt a little regretful. She regretted saying these words and regretted saying them so excessively. But if she was asked to take back what she had just said, she couldn't do it.
The heavy pressure in my heart is gone, but a new kind of pressure has appeared, which is guilt.
Aunt Zhang was unable to react for a moment. Her always well-behaved daughter actually had so many complaints against her. The shock was too great. After she digested these words, her heart felt as if it was being pinched hard, and it was excruciatingly painful.
"So... this is how you think of me." Aunt Zhang's face was pale and her eyes were wet.
Tiantian bit her lower lip, unable to bear looking directly into Aunt Zhang's eyes. She looked away, trying to calm herself down, and said in a hoarse voice, "I won't listen to you this time. I'll go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first and come to see you another day."
After saying that, Tiantian turned around and left without looking back. She walked so fast that she accidentally sprained her ankle.
Aunt Zhang looked at Tiantian's departing back, took a deep breath, wiped away the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes, and forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself."
Ji Xingzhi shook her head slightly and said, "Try to understand your daughter's thoughts. What you think is good may not be what she thinks is good. How can she know some things if you don't tell her?"
After hearing Ji Xingzhi's words, Aunt Zhang was slightly startled. Did she understand Tiantian's thoughts? She had never thought about it this way. She was an experienced person and knew what was the best thing to do for Tiantian.
But she never expected that there were so many complaints about her every day, making her feel that everything she had done over the years was wrong.
"Thank you, young lady. I will talk to Tiantian more when she comes back next time." Aunt Zhang said.
Ji Xingzhi nodded slightly and looked at the sky. It was already afternoon. Aunt Zhang invited Ji Xingzhi and Xiao Moyan to have dinner. The dishes were very rich, more rich than ever in these days.
