Wu Mei shook her head. "There are no perfect parents in the world. Maybe in my parents' eyes, I'm not good enough."
Hu Ling held Wu Mei's hand with heartache. In her heart, all the talk about excellence was bullshit. No one is born excellent. It all comes down to cultivation.
In the final analysis, the elders of the Wu family are biased, and Wu Jing is a scheming person. It is because Wu Mei is so kind that she is bullied and wronged.
Of course, Hu Ling couldn't say this too blatantly in the Wei family. If someone heard it, it would not be good for her.
After all, both the Wu family and Wei Chengzhi were deceived by the scheming woman Wu Jing and were on her side.
Wu Mei looked at Hu Ling's reaction and knew what she was thinking, so she continued, "After all these years, I'm lucky to have a good friend like you by my side, otherwise my life would really be meaningless. Don't look at me now that I'm married to Wei Chengzhi and sit on the position of the mistress of the Wei family. However, how much pain I feel in my heart is unknown to others, and perhaps only you know it best."
Hu Ling nodded with empathy, and her eyes became moist as she looked at Wu Mei like this.
Wu Mei continued, "You also know how I married Wei Chengzhi back then."
Back then, Wei Chengzhi got drunk and raped Wu Mei, who came to the Wei family to take care of the children. Wu Mei was a clean girl, so after being bullied like this, she had no choice but to marry Wei Chengzhi.
Seeing Hu Ling nod, Wu Mei continued, "For so many years, I thought I had done everything, taking care of this family in an orderly manner, and even gave birth to a son for Wei Chengzhi. However, from him, I still could not get the respect and warmth that a wife should have."
Sometimes I have to admit that Wu Jing is quite capable. Even after being dead for so long, she still makes Wei Chengzhi miss her so much. How could Wu Mei, who is so simple, be her opponent?
Hu Ling thought so in her heart.
"Wei Chengzhi has always been indifferent to me, and I have tried really hard to make him happy. I believe you have also heard from Meisha that the relationship between Wei Chengzhi and me has been very tense recently. It's not because of anything else, but because of my sister's son Wei Chen and his wife Ye Qin.
Wei Chen was in that situation. He'd gotten into a lot of trouble since he was little, and I'd always been there to help him sort it out, but it was always a thankless task. Because of his sister, Wei Chengzhi didn't want to see the child, so I had no choice but to put him in the west courtyard, where he couldn't see him. But then, Wei Chengzhi thought I was abusing him. Really, they say being a stepmother is tough, but being one for me is especially tough..."
As Wu Mei spoke, she shed two tears. Seeing this, Hu Ling felt distressed and reached out to wipe Wu Mei's tears. "Don't cry now. Tell me, there are so many grievances in your heart. If I hadn't come, you still wouldn't say it. How uncomfortable it must be to hold it in."
Wu Mei shook her head and said, "I've gotten used to it after all these years."
"Mom, it's not just that stupid idiot Wei Chen, but also that girl called Ye Qin. She always irritates me. Last time, she even beat me up. Don't you know that?"
When Hu Ling mentioned the incident of Wang Meisha being beaten, her face darkened and she became even more angry.
Wu Mei said, "This is also due to my incompetence. I failed to protect our Meisha. Ye Qin used to be very nice. I don't know what happened to her recently. I can't control her at all."
"What's good about that? Godmother, why are you still speaking for that bitch? Have you forgotten how she seduced Brother Yan and did those shameless things?" Wang Meisha looked at Hu Ling and said, "Mom, that woman just saw that she couldn't get any benefits from Godmother, so she bullied me and pissed me off!"
Hu Ling's eyes darkened as she gritted her teeth and said, "That little bitch!"
