The mother and daughter joined forces, hitting each other while hurling insults back.
"You shameless beast, you're even trying to play the victim! You're the one who bullied my daughter, exploited her for so many years, and didn't treat her like a human being at all. How dare you lay a hand on her?!"
“My daughter was perfectly healthy, but after being raised in your home for over ten years, she’s become so thin that she’s just skin and bones.”
“She worked like a slave for your family every day, doing laundry and cooking without complaint, and in the end you still married her off to such a family, leaving her to live in a pigsty and cowshed, where she was bullied and abused by such beasts!”
"You really think our biological parents are dead, don't you?!"
"If we hadn't discovered her in time and reunited with my daughter, would you still have wanted to torture her to death!"
"You heartless beast, I wouldn't be too much for you to beat to death right here today. People like you deserve to go to hell!"
Huang Meiling had always been kind and gentle to everyone and had never argued with anyone before; this was the first time she had ever lost her temper like this.
Huang Meiling was also surprised to find that she could speak for so long without taking a breath when she was angry.
After recognizing his daughter, all the anger that had been building up inside him was released at that moment.
Huang Meiling knew that Xie Mingzhu was even more frustrated than she was, so while cursing, she gave her daughter an encouraging look.
Xie Mingzhu took a deep breath and could no longer hold back. Years of pent-up anger and resentment were unleashed on He Caixia with each question and punch.
“From childhood to adulthood, you have never treated me as your family’s daughter. From the time I could walk, I was forced to do all sorts of chores for your family.”
“I was only five years old that year, just five years old! And you made me go to the fields to help you carry grain and carry bundles that were taller than me.”
“The harvest in the fields is not good, and not much grain has been harvested. It is clearly your own fault for being lazy and not farming properly and not watering the crops on time. Yet you are blaming me for this, saying that I am bad luck and that it has affected your family’s harvest.”
“You blamed all of this on me. For a whole year after that, I never got a share of the meals at home. I could only eat leftovers to fill my stomach.”
Even so, I will still continue to help you with your work.
"During that year, I fainted from hunger several times. It was only thanks to the kindness of my neighbors that I was given some food and water to drink, and the wild vegetables I dug up outside to fill my stomach, that I managed to get through it."
Xie Mingzhu became increasingly distressed as she spoke, her voice choked with sobs.
"Back then, I often thought, you've never fulfilled your responsibilities as parents, so what right do you have to decide my life as parents and marry me off to such scum?"
"Everyone says that even tigers don't eat their cubs, but you are more vicious than tigers and other wild beasts."
"Later I realized, because I'm not your biological daughter at all!"
“From beginning to end, you only treated me as a tool that you could exploit and humiliate at will!”
"He Caixia, I don't owe you anything, you owe me, and today I'm going to pay it all back!"
This was the first time Huang Meiling and Xie Wenyuan had heard Xie Mingzhu mention this matter.
The thought of his daughter suffering so much and almost starving to death ignited a fire in his heart.
But Song Yongfu, oblivious to his own mortality, got up from the side, found a large rock somewhere, and was about to throw it at Xie Mingzhu and Huang Meiling.
Xie Wenyuan usually appears gentle and refined, only good at writing and never even touching a stick. But at this moment, he rushed forward without hesitation and threw a punch that hit Song Yongfu squarely in the face.
Song Yongfu cried out in pain and fell to the ground, staring at Xie Wenyuan with wide eyes, as if he never expected that such a refined-looking person would actually resort to violence.
