As she spoke, ng Han felt increasingly uncomfortable.
She took a deep breath, "Actually, when Eldest Uncle and Cousin first ca back, I didn’t like them either, I even resisted them a lot. Because we already had an uncle leeching off our family, I didn’t want another one."
"My mother kept saying in our ears that they were here to divide the inheritance and to kick us out. But later, Eldest Uncle left, and Cousin said he was going to take the imperial examinations. I felt kind of empty inside. They never intended to rely on my father, unlike Uncle. I began to wish Eldest Uncle would stay; maybe then, soone could restrain my mother, and Uncle wouldn’t always co around pretending to be poor."
But Eldest Uncle still left. As soon as Eldest Aunt was laid to rest, they couldn’t wait to leave the ng family.
Her mother was overjoyed, but she still suspected it was just a smokescreen by ng Pei and his son, rely to lower her guard. So she feverishly moved things over to the Tao family, believing that was the safest place.
If her father hadn’t been ho that ti without going out on escort missions, she would have been even more excessive.
Later, ng Yunzheng ca back, saying he was here to participate in the county exam.
No one in the ng family was optimistic, including ng Han. Because the ng family had never produced anyone good at studying for so many years.
Unexpectedly, ng Yunzheng beca the Top Scorer of the county exam, bringing great honor to the ng family.
Uncle ng was overjoyed, and the Tao family set their sights on ng Yunzheng at that ti. Ms. Tao thought it was a great idea, never even considering the fact that he already had a fiancée.
However, once ng Yunzheng’s county exam results were announced, he went directly to the prefecture, and Ms. Tao thought they might as well wait for his prefecture exam results.
Again, he beca the Top Scorer.
The Tao family was extrely excited, as if ng Yunzheng were already one of their family.
When the prefecture exam results ca out, Uncle ng ca to the prefecture. At that ti, Ms. Tao wanted to co along, but unfortunately, due to the large temperature difference between morning and evening during that period, Ms. Tao caught a cold and naturally couldn’t leave the house.
But that didn’t stop her and the Tao family’s plan, and this ti when the academy exam results were announced, she insisted on coming along no matter what.
ng Han said, "Originally, I didn’t plan to co. After all, I wasn’t very familiar with Cousin, and it felt strange to co uninvited. But my mother brought my cousin, and I was worried sothing might happen, so I insisted on coming along. Also, it was a good opportunity to ask Cousin for so advice."
Who knew, Cousin’s fiancée was also there, and my cousin ended up completely outmatched in their confrontation.
ng Han was almost happy enough to laugh out loud. She was obviously Ms. Tao’s daughter, yet she hoped Ms. Tao would ss up.
"Sister Shuyu, I’m really at my wit’s end. When I was young, she gave my food and toys to my cousin, as I grew older, my clothes and jewelry went to my cousin. I cried and made a fuss, almost ran away from ho. But my mother only saw it as being unreasonable; she thought I was childish and didn’t know how to build a good relationship with Uncle’s family. She thought Uncle would be my support in the future."
What kind of support is that? More like a parasite; whoever wants them can take them. I’d rather be on my own than have Uncle’s family.
After hearing this, Shu Yu beca contemplative, "Logically, your father should handle this. Your mother moved things from the ng family to her own family, and the person most capable of stopping her is your father, right? Telling him would be more effective than telling ."
However, as soon as this was ntioned, ng Han felt even more like crying.
