Zhang Huanhuan spoke up, âForget it, Grandma. I donât think Auntie did it on purpose. Moreover, Iâm younger than her; how can I make an elder lower her head and apologize?â
âWe donât need you to be so hypocritical,â Zhang Nuannuan said.
Old Madam Zhang looked at Mrs. Zhang and said, âIâm already giving you face by not asking you to apologize at the hospital. Weâre all family now, so canât you just say sorry?â
âMom, I didnât push her on purpose. Why should I apologize?â Mrs. Zhang gritted her teeth.
âNo matter what, you still pushed her, right?â Old Madam Zhang said seriously.
âGrandma, you canât do this to my mother,â said Zhang Nuannuan immediately.
Old Madam Zhang ignored her and looked coldly at Mrs. Zhang.
âIf you did something wrong, then you have to admit your mistake,â she said.
Although Mrs. Zhang was unwilling, she knew the old lady still had the final say in the family.
âIâm sorry,â she apologized.
Zhang Huanhuan felt very refreshed, immediately waving her hand and replying, âAuntie, I know it was an accident. I should apologize; itâs all my fault. I couldnât hold my balance properly.â
Seeing that she didnât make things any more difficult for her, Old Madam Zhang was very satisfied.
She liked obedient people.
âYou see, Huanhuan is very sensible. Sheâs even speaking up for you now, but you were so reluctant to apologize,â she said.
Zhang Nuannuan was furious when she heard Old Madam Zhangâs words.
âGrandma, are you out of your mind?â she said in agitation. âMy mother didnât do anything wrong; this b*tch deliberately framed her.â
âPa!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
A slap landed on Zhang Nuannuanâs face.
She looked at her mother in disbelief.
âZhang Nuannuan!â Mrs. Zhangâs heart ached. âHow dare you talk to Grandma like that?!â she said sternly.
âEver since that b*tch came, there hasnât been a day of peace in the house!â Zhang Nuannuan cried.
She then ran back to the bedroom.
Mrs. Zhang didnât chase after her, not forgetting what her son had said before.
âDad, did Sister Nuannuan misunderstand me again?â Zhang Huanhuan pretended to feel guilty. âI should go explain.â
Mrs. Zhang almost couldnât hold it in when she heard Zhang Huanhuan call Mr. Zhang âDadâ.
She took a deep breath and said, âMiss Zhang, Nuannuan isnât in a good mood right now. If you go over now, youâll easily agitate her. It wonât end well, no matter which one of you gets hurt.â
Old Madam Zhang also knew her eldest granddaughterâs temper. Zhang Huanhuan wanted to go at this time, wasnât she just trying to add fuel to the fire and provoke Mr. Zhang?
At the thought of this, her face darkened.
âNo one can quell her anger,â said Old Madam Zhang. âEven she needs to learn to control her bad temper. Otherwise, how will she get married in the future?â
When Mrs. Zhang heard the old ladyâs words, she felt very awkward, but she remained silent. After all, her daughter wasnât thinking straight just now and dared to insult the old lady. How could the old lady not be angry?
âNuannuan is becoming more and more willful. Itâs all because of you!â said Mr. Zhang.
He pushed all the responsibility to Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang was furious and replied, âNuannuan has been like this since she was young; she canât change right away! You should take care of Zhang Huanhuan and make sure she doesnât always provoke Nuannuan. Sheâs much better than me!â
Zhang Huanhuan replied, âAuntie, I know you hate me. Donât worry. I will never provoke Sister Nuannuan.â
âDonât call her that,â Mrs. Zhang said. âShe wonât accept it. You can still call her Eldest Miss from now on.â
âHuanhuan calls me Dad, so is it wrong to call Nuannuan her sister?â Mr. Zhang said with a cold face.
âOr rather, you donât want Huanhuan to be my daughter at all? If Zhang Nuannuan wasnât my daughter, Huanhuan wouldnât have to call me that.â
âDonât misunderstand,â Mrs. Zhang said. âIâm just afraid that Nuannuan wonât be able to accept it.â
âDoes everyone have to yield to her just because she canât accept it?â he retorted. âSheâs so selfish and doesnât have any structure; no wonder the Lis donât like her!â
When Zhang Huanhuan heard the two of them arguing, she was overjoyed.
âDad, how can you say that?â she deliberately said. âEldest Miss will definitely find someone better.â
âIf she canât even accept her own younger sister, how can she be worthy of being our familyâs eldest daughter?â said Mr. Zhang angrily.
âDad, donât insult Eldest Miss anymore,â Zhang Huanhuan said.
He interrupted her, âHuanhuan, youâre too similar to your mother. Youâre both so kind and sensible, and thatâs why youâre always getting stepped on. From now on, you and Zhang Nuannuan are equal in this family. You donât have to call her Eldest Miss.. If you canât accept calling her your sister, just use her full name!â
