“Really?” Su Wen feigned surprise. “Aunt, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have thought you dropped by with an empty bag to ask for something. So you’re here because you want to take care of me… I see. What did you bring, then?”

Su Xuefang grew flustered. She had come empty-handed. Besides, why would she buy anything for Su Wen when she could enjoy it herself?

Still, she could not let Su Wen off so easily.

Su Wen had twisted her words to suit herself, exposing her lack of manners by not bringing a gift since she was visiting her niece’s house. If this was not Su Wen slapping her in the face, she did not know what was! Su Xuefang flushed a deep purple. When she met Su Wen’s eyes, all she saw was incredulity.

Su Xuefang cursed Su Wen in her heart.

She had thought her niece was a good girl, but it seemed it had been all an act. The cunning fox was showing her true colors!

“Mayhaps you’ve forgotten to bring one?” Su Wen shook her head and sighed. “If that’s the case, I shan’t hold it against you. However, I ask that you do not try caring for us anymore. I can’t in good conscience allow Sixth Sister to go to your place only to be taken advantage of. You also don’t need to give us any hand-me-downs.”

“Big Sister, what if the dress can still be worn?” Sixth Sister interjected.

“Hush now,” Su Wen chided. “You shouldn’t interrupt people like that. It’s good enough that our dear Aunt keeps us in her thoughts and prayers, giving us the clothes we already have. Why would you ask her for more? Don’t you know our dear Aunt’s status in her family isn’t high? It’s difficult for our poor Aunt who isn’t treated right by her husband. We should not add to her burden.”

‘Humph! You’ve been spreading the word about how charitable you are or how you look after us because your situation is much better. Let’s see how you get out of this!’ Su Wen thought.

Su Wen knew Su Xuefang’s character well. She was a selfish, narcissistic woman who always put herself before others. On the one hand, she always tried to curry favor with her in-laws, and on the other, she broadcasted to the world how she was the master of the house.

Meanwhile, she had no choice but to turn to her parents and her late father, Su Xuewen, for help so that she would not starve to death because the Tian family refused to feed her. Despite her poor circumstances, Su Xuefang had allowed herself to be brainwashed by her in-laws into thinking she was above those country bumpkins that called the village their home. There was no other way to describe her except that she was a masochist.

The Tian family fed her on the nonsense that she was blessed with eight lifetimes of luck to have married into a family living in a town and that she ought to be grateful to be allowed to act as the family’s cow or horse.

The Tian family was like a bottomless pit. They kept extorting things from Su Xuewen through Su Xuefang. Now that her father was dead, Su Xuefang turned to her instead.

Su Xuewu and Su Xueqiang did not have a good relationship with their sister, Su Xuefang, and refused to give her even a grain of rice. Su Xuefang’s two-faced tendencies were revealed long ago when she fawned over Su Xuewe and Su Xueqiang in public but privately scorned them without care for prying ears. Wouldn’t anyone think she was cheap?

The better you treated her, the more she hated and looked down on you. Yet, the worse you treated her, the more she tried to curry favor, fearing to give offense.

She was a stereotypical ingrate.

“Big Sister, I was wrong,” Sixth Sister apologized sincerely. “I won’t do it again, Aunt. Don’t worry. I won’t make things difficult for you at Uncle’s house. Although Sister Jingfeng has always looked down on you and bullied you, I won’t.”

She did not forget to shoot her Aunt a sympathetic look.

Su Xuefang was mortified. “There’s no such thing! Little Wen, don’t spout nonsense. Alright, that’s enough. I’ve been here so long, yet you haven’t even offered me a glass of water.”

Su Wen asked Su Xiu to pour Su Xuefang some water, but she did not greet her as Su Xuefang expected.

“Water is fine. Just remember not to come emptv-handed next time; it is

incredibly impolite. Even some canned food or powdered milk would not be amiss,” Su Wen said..
