"What a ruthless person!"
Yuan Bao listened to her second aunt’s entire swearing diatribe and truly felt that the assessnt of her second aunt had sowhat risen above the average line in her mind.
However, after hearing her second aunt’s speech, Yuan Bao also went through a deep self-reflection.
Honestly, being left behind was not really anyone else’s fault.
All three aunts had their own children.
When disaster struck, naturally, the first ones they thought of would be their own children.
One cares for one’s own children!
Being left behind herself, in the end, it was her own parents being muddled.
Even if the three aunts realized sothing or didn’t ntion a word, would they be guilty?
Moreover, this kind of suspicion was baseless in the first place.
Yue Fei, wrongfully died due to baseless accusations.
He was a hero, rembered through the ages.
But what about ordinary people?
Is soone supposed to carry the burden of a baseless accusation for an entire lifeti?
Nevertheless, the second aunt was truly driven to the edge, staking even the lives of the three cousins to prove her innocence!
At this mont, Yuan Bao’s feelings were genuinely complicated.
She even felt as if she was the root cause of all the family’s nurous troubles.
After all, the grandparents’ favoritism towards her would inevitably provoke dissatisfaction among the cousins. When her own brother grew older and more sensible, he might also feel the grandparents were partial, thereby harboring dissatisfaction towards her, his sister.
But what could she do?
Enjoying the grandparents’ favoritism, the benefits were hers; was she supposed to jump out and say the grandparents shouldn’t be biased, criticize the grandparents?
If she really did that, then she wouldn’t be human, but rather beco a Holy Mother white lotus.
"Wait, what on earth am I thinking about?"
Her mind went into a spiral for a while, and Yuan Bao suddenly snapped back to reality, nearly giving herself a smack across the face.
Damn, since when did she develop such a Holy Mother ntality?
Everything she had now was rightfully hers; was she out of her mind to think that the favoritism she received was wrong?
Even without evidence, Yuan Bao could basically be sure that the family’s prosperous life was due to her presence.
She brought benefits to this family; what’s wrong with enjoying a bit of special treatnt?
Life is so short; how could one always care about what others think?
Life is one’s own; how to live a lifeti is one’s own business, not soone else’s.
Even if others praise you a thousand tis, living a life of eating chaff and swallowing vegetables because of them ans your head’s been kicked by a donkey!
Thinking of this, Yuan Bao’s mind also settled down.
From now on, she’ll be good to whoever is good to her.
What of the cousins?
Blood relatives, so what?
...
The decision to split the family didn’t pass, but it still had so impact on the family relation.
So things were brought to light, and the relationships between each other beca hard to restore to the way they were.
Just like the saying goes, things in this world can be reconciled, but they can never be the sa again. Once a crack is ford, even if nded, it still exists.
Yuan Bao, however, ignored this impact, and continued her carefree daily life with laughter.
anwhile, Sheng Xueyi from the next village often appeared in Shiqu Village as well, bringing pastries and successfully gaining a group of children’s following.
Yuan Bao’s cousins were also followers of Sheng Xueyi.
Especially the eldest cousin Yuan Shougui, who had beco Sheng Xueyi’s protector, taking advantage of his tall and sturdy build to claim the top follower position by her side.
