Chapter 22 Liu gets beaten
Although she resented Bai Yaoyao for stealing her grandmother's love, she would never join forces with outsiders to bully her own family!
However, looking at her grandmother's serious expression, she didn't want to say anything.
He just stood there stubbornly, turned his head to the side, gritted his teeth, and held back the tears in his eyes.
Li Mingze lowered his head, stood restlessly aside, and said nothing.
"What's wrong? Are you mute? Did someone wrong you?" Seeing this, Mrs. Li became even angrier.
"Yao Jia! Li Yao Jia! Are you there?"
Suddenly, there was an angry roar outside the door, and a tall middle-aged man rushed in with a broom.
When he saw Li Yaojia, he picked up the broom and hit her!
Liu came after them and immediately protected Li Yaojia, blocking the man. "If you want to fight, then fight me too. If you have the guts, beat us both to death!"
"Get out of the way! If you hadn't spoiled her, why would she join forces with outsiders to bully her own cousin?" The man was none other than Madam Li's second son, Li Yunshan, the father of Li Yaojia and Li Mingze.
"What do you mean by joining forces with outsiders? Tongtong is her dear cousin, so how can she be an outsider?" Liu shouted.
"Just because she's not an outsider, you can't tell right from wrong and gossip about her. Is she short of food or clothes at home? Just ask the city lord's eldest daughter how much money she gets every month! What has the family done to her that you have to go and spread nonsense in front of others? And you!" Li Yunshan pointed at his wife angrily, "Yao Jia was well taken care of by her mother, but you insisted on raising her yourself. This is the daughter you raised!"
"What's wrong with me? Why do I want my daughter back? It's because my mother has someone else by her side and there is no room for our Yao Jia! As a mother, can't I bring my daughter to my side and love her?" Liu cried with tears and snot.
"Liu, you've lost your conscience when you say that!" Old Madam Li was so angry that she laughed. "When Yaoyao first came home, did I ever treat her and her sisters differently? What Yaoyao had, Yaojia also had! Even what Yaoyao didn't have, Yaojia also had!"
"Hmph! How can they be the same? Yes! What Bai Yaoyao has, Yao Jia also has! Isn't that what Bai Yaoyao gave to Yao Jia after picking out the leftovers? Our Yao Jia is not someone who loves us, so there is no need for us to use what others don't want!" Liu retorted unconvinced.
"You...you are so arrogant and unreasonable!" Old Madam Li was so angry that her eyes turned black and she almost fell down.
"Old Madam, please calm down!" Madam Hu stepped forward and calmed her down, then said to Liu, "Second Madam, when has the eldest daughter ever used Yaoyao's leftovers? Every time, the old madam would have someone carefully select two portions, one for the eldest daughter and one for Yaoyao! Later, just to make you feel comfortable, she even deliberately bought identical items, even the clothes you wore were the same. It's obvious that the old madam is well-intentioned. How can Second Madam not understand?"
"Bah! She is a wild child with no mother or father, yet she wears the same clothes as our Yao Jia. Who is she cursing? Does she want our Yao Jia to be without the love of her parents?" Liu spat on the ground and said harshly.
Bang!
In response, she was slapped by Old Lady Li.
Liu was beaten to the ground and screamed, "Ah!"
"Mom!" Li Yaojia and Li Mingze screamed, hurried forward and supported her.
