Damn it, her fingers are killing her.
From pinching herself.
She honestly admires those white lotus types, how can they cry at the drop of a hat?
She can’t cry, all she can do is this. freewebnσvel.cѳm
"What bad luck, don’t know how the Helian Family teaches kids, no manners at all." Zhang Wanru thought it was quite liberating to say she didn’t have much time left, allowing her to do whatever she wanted.
She didn’t want to die, far from it; the doctor had said she could live a long life.
"Grandma, what are you talking about? Xiao Xi came specially to see you, she even said she’d visit you every day from now on." Gu Jin Yan felt his grandma was being a bit too much.
Xiao Xi hadn’t done anything, just asked a simple question and got all this in return.
And yet it still set her off.
Gu Jin Yan felt quite conflicted seeing Helian Xi so aggrieved.
If it weren’t for him, Helian Xi wouldn’t have to come and visit his grandma at all.
Besides, both he and Xiao Xi know that grandma doesn’t like her, which is why Xiao Xi almost never came over.
Gu Jin Yan wrapped his arm around Helian Xi’s waist, "Xiao Xi, grandma doesn’t mean anything by it, don’t take it to heart."
Helian Xi just sneered inwardly, but she merely shook her head on the outside.
"What’s wrong? Even if she were a princess, as your wife, visiting your grandma should be expected, right? But ever since I got sick, she’s only come twice. As someone’s daughter-in-law, has she ever cooked a meal for you? Washed any clothes? Done any housework?"
As soon as Zhang Wanru finished speaking, Helian Xi replied, "Grandma, our family has more money than we can spend; we have quite a few servants! Is hiring them just for enjoyment? These things have the servants do. Just like you, Grandma, after you married Grandpa, you never got involved in these things either, right?"
Zhang Wanru: "..."
"Can you really compare yourself to me?" Zhang Wanru said coldly.
"Of course I can’t compare. Before you married Grandpa, you endured a lot of hardships. I heard from my grandparents that before you married Grandpa, you worked as a waitress in a restaurant. Your family conditions were not good, you suffered a lot.
After marrying Grandpa, he cherished you and wanted you to enjoy life. I don’t have your skills; I haven’t done these things since I was young. It’s my parents’ fault; they never let me do them.
They said I was their little princess; there was no need for me to do any of that. So they raised me to be someone who can’t do anything. Naturally, my husband feels sorry for me and doesn’t want me doing them either.
That’s also what he promised my parents, and I wouldn’t want to make him go back on that!"
Helian Xi knows how to fight, and naturally, can argue too.
She’s no stranger to winding circles in speech.
What she heard was quite different—it came from the old lady who deliberately seduced Mr. Gu.
Back then, Mr. Gu’s ex-wife was still alive!
Soon after she passed away, this lady moved in.
Helian Xi knew at the time this lady was not simple.
Before Mr. Gu, she had someone else, too! To avoid hardship, she abandoned her man and married Mr. Gu.
Helian Xi always despised people like her and naturally avoided communicating with her.
The old lady probably didn’t know she’s a joke in high society.
Thinks she’s somebody who can toy with others as she pleases.
