Yun Duo finally couldn't hold back any longer. She stood up from the small stool in front of the stove, looked at Zhang Juhua, and said in a serious tone, "Aunt Juhua, what you said is not right. Young Master Lin and Uncle County Magistrate will not ignore us, but they will only care whether anyone bullies us. If someone bullies us, even if they don't show up themselves, they will send someone to deal with it."
"But it's our own life to live. Whether we live well or not, they won't care."
"Besides, we have our own hands and feet. Even if they wanted to interfere, we wouldn't let them."
“We are all family members, and if we live well, it is our own ability. If we don’t live well, we can’t blame others. We are not beggars, and we don’t have to ask others for food. We have to have backbone. Even if we have to eat chaff and wild vegetables, we will not beg for food from others.”
Zhang Juhua's face turned ashen with anger.
Is this brat trying to say she's a beggar and wants to beg for food at their house?
“Duo’er, you’re not right to talk like that. To be honest, I even saved your life. If it weren’t for me, you would have been bullied to a pulp by that idiot Yang Erwa. You wouldn’t be where you are today. You should be thanking me properly.”
"And now you're doing this? Not only do you not know how to be grateful, but you also make veiled accusations that I'm a beggar. Go out and ask around, who treats their savior like this?"
This is... way too shameless!
Hearing Zhang Juhua's words, Yun Duo was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses. She deliberately pretended to be confused and looked at Zhang Juhua with a blank expression, asking, "Huh? Aunt Juhua, what are you saying? I don't understand."
Then, she turned to Yun Qishi and asked with a puzzled look, "Grandma, what do you mean by 'insinuating'? Also, why did Aunt Juhua say that she was Duo'er's savior? Duo'er remembers that Aunt Juhua told her that it would be better to die than to become the wife of that idiot Yang Erwa. She said that the river at the entrance of the village has no cover so that Duo'er can walk across it cleanly, otherwise, Duo'er will not be reborn into a good family in her next life."
"Did she send Duo'er to jump into the river to save her? But if Duo'er really drowns, is Aunt Juhua Duo'er's savior or her murderer?"
Upon hearing Yun Duo repeat what she had originally said, Zhang Juhua jumped up in anger, yelling, "Yun Duo, what are you saying? What do you mean I killed you? You're still standing here alive, not dead at all! How can I be the murderer who killed you?"
"Besides, did I tell you to jump into the river? That was just a metaphor, not a real request for you to jump in! My original intention was simply to tell you that falling into the hands of that idiot Yang Erwa would bring you no benefit, and to encourage you to find a way to resist."
"Didn't you rebel yourself? You ran away and made a scene, which even alarmed the county magistrate. He brought the police to arrest your parents and separated you from your family, allowing you to escape your heartless parents and live a good life."
"Tell me yourself, if I hadn't advised you to rebel, would you be living such a good life now?"
"Now that you're doing well, it's one thing to be ungrateful, but I'm letting you off the hook because you're young. How can you turn around and accuse me of trying to kill you?"
