Chapter 951 - 950: Breaking Ties
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The woman frowned, looking at Guoguo’s face as she spoke.
"I’m not talking nonsense. I’m just making reasonable deductions. Otherwise, how could I know the answer? Of course, these doubts are my own. Whether you want me to solve these doubts is your freedom. I won’t force you, you can rest assured." Guoguo said with a smile.
Her words carried an implicit aura of rupture, causing the woman’s heart to sink endlessly.
Though she had given birth to two children at once, the woman was the type to just give birth and not nurture. She knew how to deliver the children but didn’t know how to raise them to grow healthily and robustly.
"Rest assured? I am at ease. You’re born from my womb after ten months of pregnancy, and you say such things to me. Did books teach you all this nonsense? I think I should send you to a class on female virtue, where you would properly learn how the younger generation should respect their elders and how children should honor their parents."
Initially, the woman blurted it out without much thought, but now the notion grew stronger and stronger in her mind. As long as she throws the children in there, once they come out, they will continue listening to her. They won’t say things like today anymore. Thinking of this brought a relaxed expression to the woman’s face.
This expression drew Guoguo’s vigilance towards the woman to the highest point. Although she never attended the female virtue class, it had significant notoriety. She heard lots of news about the class, none was good. That place is all about smothering humanity, turning people into obedient machines, regardless of whether you are willing or not, as long as the money is in place, they’ll brainwash you vigorously.
They had already planned to escape from this family completely, to let each other go, yet why did she refuse to let them go? Their relationship had already reached this point, and her mind was still not on her own mistakes but on control, she wanted to control them.
"Did we dig up your ancestors’ graves in our past lives?" Guoguo accidentally let her inner thoughts slip out.
"What did you say?" The woman did not hear Guoguo clearly, furrowing her brow and asking again.
"I said, did we dig up your ancestors’ graves in our past lives? Is that why we’re mother and daughter in this life, enslaved by you, forced to deal with you two scumbags as our parents? Do you know how many times at midnight I wished I were an orphan with no parents, that even if we were orphans our lives would be way better than they are now?" Guoguo said loudly.
Probably because things had already come to a head, Guoguo no longer held back her emotions and bluntly expressed her dissatisfaction.
"You’re really too much, truly too much. I sent you to school, and this is what you learned to repay me? Is this what school teaches you? It taught you to become so disrespectful, letting your conscience get eaten by dogs?" The woman pointed at the two sisters’ noses and shouted.
Her voice was so sharp it could pierce someone’s eardrum; it was utterly loathsome, and the faces of Tangtang and Guoguo showed disdain and disgust, looking at her as if she were mud.
"What kind of look is that? Don’t think just because you’ve climbed up on high branches you can turn from sparrows to phoenixes. Dragons birth dragons, phoenixes birth phoenixes; rats’ children dig holes. You’re his offspring, bearing his blood and genes, and will always be sparrows; no matter how pretty the feathers are, that doesn’t change this fact." The man was provoked by the sisters’ gaze into igniting his almost non-existent self-esteem, making him instantly lose composure, saying more cultured words than he ever had.
"Do you think we enjoy being your daughters? If choice were ours, we’d rather be children with no parents or simply not be born into this world at all. You’re always using our birth against us, but have you ever asked if we wanted to be born?" Tangtang raised her head from Guoguo’s embrace, widened her eyes, and shouted fiercely.
"If possible, I wish you’d strangled us at birth. If you had asked us before deciding to give birth, I guarantee we’d choose abortion, letting ourselves flow from your body, not bothering you even a little and definitely not letting you have the chance to say such words to us now." Tangtang spoke these words like venting, watching the sudden change of expressions on the couple’s faces with delight.
The family never had an argument of such magnitude, with the two daughters seemingly transformed as if possessed by some kind of evil spirit, daring to talk back, which was incredibly unbelievable, much like if someone claimed they built a villa on Mount Everest, utterly fantastical.
"You really are rebelling against the heavens. You can’t possibly think having some patron means you can sever ties with me, can you? I’m telling you it’s impossible. Don’t daydream, as long as your bodies have our blood running through them, you’ll never escape us in this lifetime, just accept your fate."
The woman’s shameless attitude infuriated Tangtang and Guoguo, causing them to tremble uncontainably, their eyes reddening purely from anger.
"You’re really shameless, I’ve always known you’re thick-skinned, and every time I think I’ve seen the limit, you surprise me by breaking through my perception of you. Truly, enough is enough." Guoguo said with a disdainful smile.
"Though blood ties screen the steps, there are plenty of ways to deal with you. As long as we’re willing, I can guarantee your old age will be quite exciting, but whether you live to see old age, who knows." Xu Ke said with a gentle smile.
"Don’t talk to them anymore, let’s go. There’s no point staying here." Xu Ke had no desire to linger and bicker, having wanted to leave for a while, staying only to let the sisters vent their dissatisfaction and longstanding grievances. Now that it’s mostly aired out, there’s no reason to stay.
