Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Wretched Eldest Sister 13

Mrs. Zhong stared coldly at her, her face no longer showing any kindness or love. ”Yuan Chun, you’ve changed. I never expected you to turn out like this. Before, you were responsible, you took charge, and you had the demeanor of a big sister. Your father and I praised you often. But now, you... you, to avoid work, are actually playing tricks on your mother.”

Mrs. Zhong’s eyes were red, full of disappointment.

Yuan Chun chuckled—was she trying to manipulate her again?

Too bad, she wasn’t the original host.

Yuan Chun’s tears streamed down as she cried out, ”Mom, how can you say that about me? The doctor said my health is poor and I can’t keep working like this, or it will affect my lifespan. Mom, if you don’t care about me, fine, but how can you blame me for not working? Boo-hoo, luckily I dragged you to the hospital today, otherwise I wouldn’t have known I had so many illnesses.”

”Boo-hoo, Mom, I took you to the hospital for a check-up, but I didn’t expect that you’d be healthy with no illnesses while I turned out to be full of ailments. Boo-hoo... Mom, am I not your biological child? I’ve got so many illnesses, yet you show no concern but instead blame me for not working. I... boo-hoo-hoo... Mom, I’m so disappointed in you. It turns out that all those times you said you loved me were just lies, you don’t love me at all...”

”A few days ago, Yuan Fen just coughed a few times, and you were so worried that you rushed her to the hospital. I’ve had back pain, leg pain, and stomach pain many times. Every time I told you, you brushed it off, saying everyone gets back pain, leg pain, and stomach pain from working, it’s normal. Boo-hoo, if it weren’t for your lack of concern, would I have so many illnesses?”

”Boo-hoo, Mom, in your heart, you only care about my brother and sister. I’m just the workhorse of this family, here to help the Zhong Family work and earn money. None of you care about my well-being. Boo-hoo... I’m so pitiful, Dad doesn’t care, Mom doesn’t love me. I get up early and work late, serving this big family, growing vegetables for everyone to eat, and changing Mantou for them. I’ve worked myself into sickness and what do I get? Just blame...”

”Alright, stop crying already. It’s Mom’s fault, Mom shouldn’t blame you.” Mrs. Zhong feared others would hear her elder daughter’s words and interfere, and she quickly admitted her mistake through gritted teeth, ”Look at you, I say one thing and you oppose me with ten, crying and wailing so others might think I’m bullying you again. Today was shameful enough for me, don’t make Mom lose more face.”

Yuan Chun hiccuped and looked at her pitifully, ”Mom, then don’t say anymore that being the elder sister means I should work more or give way to my siblings. Dad’s the eldest brother, yet I’ve never seen him give way to his siblings. He’s the only one in the Zhong Family who studied, and several of the aunts never even entered a school.”

”They were all useless girls, not worthy of going to school.”

”Mom, I’m also a useless girl, and sister’s a useless girl, and Mom’s a useless girl too, how did we get to study then?”

Mrs. Zhong was immediately speechless.

That remark was what her mother-in-law said.

Her mother-in-law said it often, and she remembered it, blurting it out instinctively.

Forget it, not worth talking to this stubborn girl.

Mrs. Zhong was tired and subconsciously said, ”Mom’s tired and going to lie down in the room, you make dinner and wash the clothes.”

”Mom, the doctor said I can’t work anymore, and you promised me you wouldn’t make me work. How can you go back on your word?”

Yuan Chun looked at her with disappointment.

Mrs. Zhong, infuriated, was about to bite down on her yellow teeth.

”Fine, fine, you go rest, I’ll make dinner.”

Mrs. Zhong dragged her weary body to the kitchen.

Yuan Chun smiled silently, then picked up a pile of medicine and went into her small room.

Of course, she wouldn’t take these medicines. She threw them into a box, reached into space to pull out a Revitalizing Pill and swallowed it, pulled out a bottle of fresh milk, and a novel.

She drank milk while reading the novel, quite at ease.

Yuan Chun wasn’t worried at all about anyone coming in to see. The Zhong Family all despised her small mud hut house, and no one ever came in.

Even when Mrs. Zhong came looking for her, she’d only knock on the door outside and never come in.
