I was discharged from the hospital due to the harassment, but due to lack of rest, I developed a chronic illness and looked several years older than my peers.
When I recalled this, a dull pain in my lower abdomen brought me back to reality.
Seeing Cecilia busying around, I got furious.
In the past, she complained about her back and leg pain, and even had to wait for me to wash dishes.
The day after I was discharged from the hospital, she forced me to cook and wash clothes, and even supervised me while eating, for fear that I would be lazy.
Now Cecilia served Cynthia like a servant.
Cecilia brought fruits to Cynthia, then turned around and scolded me impatiently, "You are a city person, but have no manners at all. Cynthia is a guest. What's wrong with her sleeping in the master bedroom?
"You're so uneducated."
I'd heard this so many times.
In my previous life, Jaxon's family knew that I was concerned about reputation and soft-hearted, so they always used these words to deal with my complaints.
"Something happened at the company. I have to go out."
Not wanting to see this family causing trouble for me, I dug out my bank card from the mess on the floor and put my important documents in my bag.
"Why do you bring your documents to work? Are you going on a long trip?"
Cecilia suddenly shouted, and the whole family turned to stare at me. I smiled, "The company is giving out high temperature subsidies. I have to bring my documents to claim it."
When she heard that there was money, Cecilia's face changed immediately.
She pushed me out the door and said, "Cynthia wants to eat fruits. You can use this money to buy some for her. Get the best! Also buy some crabs. She loves them. She wants the most expensive ones!"
Before I had walked far, she chased after me. "Don't take the bus for such a short distance. Save the money. Walk there!"
...
I was not going to listen to her.
After being married for a few years, I had seen through the true colors of this family.
They always told me to save money.
Cecilia and my father-in-law brought home health products worth thousands of dollars without hesitation. Jaxon spent tens of thousands of dollars on the game. But he soon gave up the game.
Me?
I bought a bottle of water on the way up the mountain and was scolded by the family from the mountainside to the top of the mountain.
