"Second sister-in-law, do you believe in karma?"
A cold wind blew in the courtyard.
The wind blew up her coat and onto her face.
Mu Lian felt that everything outside seemed to have changed since she hadn't been out for a while.
It got darker, and the temperature got colder.
Rong Shang turned her head and glanced at her when she heard her words. Having not slept for several days and nights, Mu Lian now had deep dark circles under her eyes.
She looked very tired and weak.
It looked as if she could collapse at any moment if the wind blew.
Rong Shang knew that Madam Mu's death had been a great blow to her.
The reason she is still immersed in grief is simply because... she has placed all the blame on herself.
Just like the question she asked at this moment, "Do you believe in karma?"
"I believe you." As if she didn't need to think about anything, Rong Chang answered truthfully.
Because she came to punish those who have committed many evil deeds.
Mu Lian had expected to hear this.
She forced a slight smile, but couldn't help hugging herself tightly.
"Yes, good deeds are rewarded and evil deeds are punished."
It's not that retribution won't come, it's just that the time hasn't arrived yet.
She couldn't understand it either. Her mother had never done anything immoral or immoral, so why was this happening?
After thinking about it, I realized it was because she had a vicious daughter.
Mu Lian took a deep breath, but when she exhaled, she realized that it still hurt so much.
She laughed, but tears welled up in her eyes. "Second sister-in-law, do you know? Back then, I cursed you every single day. I cursed you to get hit by a car when you went out, and to drown at sea..."
She really...
Besides verbal curses, she also tripped her upstairs, and she remembers having to go to the hospital and get several stitches.
She even hired some thugs to bully her, cornering her at the alley entrance and scaring her so much that she didn't dare to leave the house for days and nights.
Rong Shang didn't know what the point of recalling these things today was.
"If you truly feel that you were wrong, if you truly believe that it was your fault that caused God to punish you, causing your loved ones to leave you one by one, then please pull yourself together."
"If you make a mistake, then make amends."
She looked at her with a very cold gaze.
They didn't make any concessions for her just because she was in a bad mood.
This is also why Mu Lian wanted to talk to her tonight.
Because she knew that only she would tell her the truth.
"Make amends." Mu Lian repeated what she had just said, turning her face away and looking at the pond in front of her, her eyes gleaming. "Is it still possible to make amends?"
Her mother is dead, and her older brother is dead too.
"Then what do you want to do?" Rong Shang asked coldly, because she had heard what was on her mind.
"You feel you can't make amends, and you want to die?"
"..." Mu Lian was shocked.
"Mu Lian, have you thought about Grandma?" Rong Shang sneered. "To put it bluntly, you're just selfish."
She locks herself in her room all day and only talks about how her family members died because of her.
Then what?
No action was taken.
She did these things as if she was moved by her own actions.
But they forgot that an old man was already standing on the edge of the cliff.
She lost her grandson and daughter-in-law. Her only son is now in a wheelchair, and her granddaughter is numbing herself with thoughts of herself, living a life like a walking corpse.
Mu Lian did not receive any comfort from Rong Chang during their conversation tonight.
Instead, she was severely reprimanded.
As night deepened, Mu Lian returned home.
