Chapter 60: Scared to death
"What happened? Mom, why did you quarrel with my aunt?" Cen Yan asked as soon as he walked outside.
"I, I..." Li seemed to be extremely angry at being bullied by Cen Ying and was speechless for a while.
"Why are you arguing? Cen Yan, your stepmother is not as hardworking as your biological mother. She is just a lazy bum!" Cen Ying said sarcastically.
"Really? I think my mother is very hardworking." Cen Yan's face darkened when she heard her mention her biological mother's hardworking. Wasn't it because her biological mother was too hardworking that she died so early?
It is not an exaggeration to say that she was worked to death by the people of the old Cen family!
"Hehe." It was dark, and Cen Ying didn't notice that Cen Yan's face had changed. He just continued, "I just saw your mother washing clothes here, so I brought out my clothes for the past two days and wanted her to help me wash them. Who knew that she was unwilling? Tell me, what's the reason for this?"
"Yes, I also want to ask, why doesn't my aunt wash her clothes herself, but asks my mother to wash them? What's the reason?" Cen Yan asked quietly.
"you!"
Cen Ying then realized that Cen Yan was not on her side at all, and her tone immediately became fierce, "What's the reason? Then I'll tell you! You, the second branch, have to work for the old Cen family. That's what your grandmother said! I told your mother to wash my clothes, and she has to wash them for me! If she doesn't, I'll go to your grandmother and complain. Do you think she will get away with it!"
"What? So not only does my aunt not have to cook or do housework on weekdays, but even her own underwear has to be washed by our second room? I remember that there seems to be no such rule in the old Cen family? Each room only helps grandpa and grandma to wash clothes. Grandpa once said that you have to wash your clothes yourself. After all, you are just a farm girl, not a rich girl. If you can't even wash your own clothes, you will be disliked by your husband's family if you can't do housework after you get married."
Cen Yan was not afraid of Cen Ying's bad temper at all, and she immediately retorted, "Besides, if it gets out that you are so old and still let your sister-in-law wash your clothes, I'm afraid no one will be willing to marry you!"
"You, you actually still say that to me?" Not being able to get married has always been a thorn in Cen Ying's heart. She was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"Aunt, don't be angry when I say this. I'm just thinking about you."
Cen Yan smiled at her, deliberately trying to piss her off. "After all, I'm already engaged, and Wei Zan keeps saying he'll marry me, so I don't have to worry about getting married."
"Cen Yan! Stop showing off here! It's not certain whether she will marry you or not!" Cen Ying was so angry that his forehead was smoking and he yelled at Cen Yan at the top of his voice.
"At least he came to tell me today that he would definitely marry me. What about you, aunt? Up to now, has any young man from any family come to my grandparents to propose to you?" Cen Yan said, frowning and thinking, "It seems that there has not been any?"
"You, you, you you you you..." Cen Ying was so angry that he was incoherent.
She kept saying "you" for a long time but couldn't say anything to refute it effectively.
But Cen Ying never needed to be reasoned with.
In this family, when the eldest sister is not around, she is her mother's most beloved daughter. Could it be that she is afraid of someone from the unfavored second wife?
"I tell you, no matter what you say here, if I tell you, the second room, to wash my clothes, you have to do it whether you want to or not! Believe it or not, I only need to tell grandma a word, and if you, the second room, dare not wash my clothes again, grandma will definitely punish you! What status do you, the second room, have in this family? And you dare to confront me here, who do you think you are!" Cen Ying put his hands on his waist and kicked the basin with his foot, knocking the two pieces of clothes that Li had just washed to the ground.
The clean clothes were immediately covered with mud again.
Li was so angry that she trembled all over.
"Little aunt, you are so domineering. Okay, it's just washing clothes, right? I'll wash them for you right away, and I guarantee they will be washed 'clean'!" Seeing this, Cen Yan knew that to deal with such a fierce girl, she could only be more ruthless than her. She immediately kicked over the basin that Cen Ying used to put clothes in, and raised one foot. She first stomped hard a few times in the sewage pit in the yard, and then stomped hard on Cen Ying's dirty clothes a few more times.
"Ah——" Cen Ying let out an ear-piercing scream, "Cen Yan, you little bitch! If you dare to dirty my clothes, I will fight you!"
As she said that, she raised her hand and started fighting with Cen Yan.
Cen Yan curled his lips and sneered quickly, then dodged while shouting, "Dad! Dad, please show up and save me! Your daughter is about to be beaten to death by the cruel and unreasonable aunt-in-law!"
"You, stop scaring me with your father's spirit!"
When Cen Ying heard this, he remembered what happened in the past two days regarding Cen Dahai's soul, and immediately stopped in fear, not daring to chase Cen Yan anymore.
But she still said stubbornly, "Don't think I'm afraid of your father! You dare to treat me like this now, believe it or not, when your father gets better, I will make him kneel down and admit his fault! You should know that your father is a slave who loves to act servilely in front of me! If I tell him to go east, he will never dare to go west! He has to give me whatever I want!"
"Dad...you, you're up?" At this time, Cen Yan pointed behind Cen Ying and said with surprise.
"What do you mean your father is awake? Don't bluff me!" Cen Ying had her back to the door of the second room and couldn't see what was happening behind her. She thought Cen Yan was lying to her. "Did you hear what I said? You from the second room are to be servants of our Cen family! Why don't you apologize to me quickly? Then when your father wakes up, I can say a few good words for you in front of him. Otherwise, if I let him beat you up, do you think you'll avoid being beaten?"
"You don't have to say anything for her in front of me. I heard everything you said." However, this time, as soon as Cen Ying finished her arrogant words, a weak and familiar male voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
Cen Ying's whole body stiffened and he slowly turned his head.
Cen Dahai appeared in clothes like a ghost.
At this moment, he was holding the door frame with one hand, his face was pale, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his sharp black eyes were flashing with a cold light as he just looked at himself.
“Ghost, ghost!” Cen Ying thought it was Cen Dahai’s spirit that had really come out. She was so scared that she ran to the main room as if to escape for her life. She cried and screamed, “Dad! Mom! My second brother is dead! He’s dead! Please save me! Wuuuuu!”
