When I see injustice, I naturally have to intervene, especially since my father is the brigade leader. Helping my father share his burdens isn't just my duty as a son. Saving you was nothing more than a small favor, yet you've remembered it for so many years.
That makes sense. Before, when Uncle Liu was in charge, you were lucky to have food to eat. Now that he gives me those two eggs every day, it's clear that you've turned the tables and are in charge now.
However, I really can't accept these eggs. Leaving aside whether my third brother remembers his righteous words, even if he does, you're not related to us, and we haven't had any contact for years. Now you're offering me eggs, and I still don't dare accept them. After all, my parents taught us from a young age not to take anything from others, because who knows what's underneath the sugar coating?
Liu Taohua had never been to school, and Qian Duoduo's words contained idioms and hidden meanings. She looked at Qian Duoduo with some confusion.
Qian Duoduo knew she hadn't understood, but she still whispered in her ear, in a voice only the two of them could hear, "You don't need to waste your time. Not only does my third brother look down on you, but I don't like you either, and my mother dislikes your family even more."

Liu Taohua listened to her father's curses, numb and indifferent. She had once truly fantasized about Qian Mao, hoping that one day he would take her away from this family. But since then, Qian Mao had never appeared in her life again. Even when they met in the village, he would walk past her indifferently.
However, she always thought that it was because she and he were too young, and there was a difference between men and women, so they couldn't get too close. In particular, her mother had said that a woman should be reserved and protect her family in order to be valued by her husband's family.
That's what she did too. After working in the fields all day, she would still tidy up the house inside and out when she got home. She gave all the money she earned to her family and didn't keep a single penny for herself. But now she has to face the result of her hopes being shattered.
