ARC 1: The Blackened Step-Brother (7)

She looked at Tang Wan in disapproval, “Although I don’t know what’s happened in your family, your stepmother obviously cares about you. She heard that you had an accident and rushed over in a hurry. When she arrived here, she was so panicked that she almost fell down! How could she be so flustered if she wasn’t nervous? Your stepmother is not all bad. Little girl, I think you can try to open your heart to her.”

Zhao Xia shook her head as soon as she heard that, as if she was afraid of angering Tang Wan, “Stop it. I don’t care about this! It’s enough for me as long as she grows up safely!”

After listening to this, the nurse increasingly felt that it wasn’t easy for Zhao Xia as a stepmother.

Tang Wan suddenly pointed to Tang Yitong who was standing to the side with a deeply sarcastic expression on her face, “Big Sister, do you know that this child… is her biological son? Have you ever seen a mother who’s raised her own son with such a skinny look but was dripping in gold and silver herself?1 If she can’t even take care of her own son, will she treat her stepdaughter well? She should be tired of pretending, but if she’s going to pretend them she should do it correctly. Don’t give anyone a handle to hold onto!”

Zhao Xia’s expression drastically changed. The nurse stared at Tang Yitong in a daze.

This child…she remembered that he had no injuries, but he was severely malnourished. She didn’t expect that he was actually the son of this rich wife.

Looking at Zhao Xia’s expression again, the expression of the nurse, who enjoyed watching palace drama’s, suddenly sank.  

How good can you be to your stepdaughter if you do this to your own son? What she said just now was a clear attempt to mislead her, so that she would think the girl lying in bed was an unreasonable master! But these are all lies she deliberately told in order to destroy the girl’s image, right?

Oh, that woman has a pretty appearance. It’s a pity that this girl is also a smart one, and directly exposed that woman’s true face.

…

“Madam, I shouldn’t care about your family’s affairs, but you are wearing pigeon eggs. Why don’t you give your son a few bites of food? Even if you re-married, you don’t have to starve your own son like this. Don’t you feel like you’re losing your conscious?” The nurse had an ugly expression on her face.

No one likes to be exposed.

Zhao Xia hurriedly said, “This is all a misunderstanding. You also know that I am re-married. If I treat my son well, my husband might have opinions…”

“But Tang Yitong is also my father’s biological son, isn’t he? My father is so rich, why should he treat his own son poorly?” Tang Wan said immediately.

As soon as Tang Wan finished speaking, the nurse’s eyes filled with contempt when looking at Zhao Xia.  

This boy is so pitiful. His mother married into a wealthy family, but she’s so stingy with him that she doesn’t even give him a meal.

This shows how selfish this woman is!

Zhao Xia was a little embarrassed to see Tang Wan exposing her without giving her any face, but soon she said, “Didn’t you keep bullying Tong Tong and keep him from eating?”

As soon as she said this, Tang Wan suddenly smiled, “So you knew about it, but deliberately didn’t do anything about it.”

Tang Wan looked at Tang Yitong, “Tang Yitong, it seems that even if you are a boy, you have no place in the family. It turns out that I was really wrong before. I thought that by bullying you, I could avenge my mother. Do you see? Your mother doesn’t care about you at all, just like my father doesn’t care about me!”
