Chapter 156 - 158: Ungrateful Wolf



Obviously, the three of them couldn’t possibly include Tang Yuxin in their family. What did Tang Yuxin count as? If she weren’t somewhat useful, if she couldn’t nanny for Wei Jiani, cook and wash their clothes, she might have been kicked out of the Wei Family long ago.

With a push of the small of her doghouse-like room door, Tang Yuxin stepped out, only to find the table cluttered with bowls and plates. So, this is the current Sang Zhilan; she doesn’t even need to clear the dishes anymore. This is because she knows Tang Yuxin will tidy up and clean the dishes.

Tang Yuxin walked over, opened the pot lid, finding there was not even a grain of rice left, while the dishes on the table were also leftovers. She carried all the bowls to the kitchen, then secretly cooked instant noodles for herself. Last lifetime, it was like this too. Their family would sometimes eat all the rice. Even if they didn’t finish it, they would dump the rest away, whether deliberately or unintentionally, always seeming to want to starve her. Despite her meekness, she never stole food. This time around, it’s different. No matter how aggrieved she feels, she will not starve herself.

The next morning, when she had just woken up, the sky was already beginning to brighten. Sang Zhilan had laid down the rule that she had to wake up early because she had to cook breakfast. The adults might not eat, but Wei Jiani absolutely needed to. Wei Jiani still had to go to school, but she didn’t. She didn’t know if Sang Zhilan had intentionally forgotten about her schooling or if it had simply never occurred to her.

Tang Yuxin rolled up her sleeves and silently went to the kitchen to cook porridge and steam the buns from a few days ago.

Sometime later, she heard the sounds of people talking outside and Wei Jiani crying.

She didn’t know how Sang Zhilan had finally managed to pacify her this time, but Wei Jiani’s crying time was shorter. Wei Jiani is a pampered girl, and everything she wants, she gets. Her temper is bad as well. Every morning when she wakes up, she cries. One can only wonder at what age she will stop.

When Tang Yuxin emerged from the kitchen and saw Sang Zhilan, her small lips immediately tightened.

On seeing her, Sang Zhilan awkwardly shielded Wei Jiani behind her, “Yuxin, your little sister wants to wear this set of clothes you have. I think they are too small for you now. Let your sister wear them. In a few days when Mom gets her salary, she will buy you new clothes, okay?”

“Mom, I want new clothes too,” Wei Jiani pitched a fit as she demanded new clothes for herself too.

“Okay, Mom will buy them for you,” Sang Zhilan kissed her daughter’s face. Seeing Wei Jiani wearing the clothes made her look even more radiant. Sang Zhilan felt that the clothes really suited Jiani.

Tang Yuxin’s dark complexion didn’t look good in red, so it was better that she didn’t wear it. Besides, the outfit was indeed too small for her and fit Nini just right.

Tang Yuxin clenched the corner of her clothes. She had the urge to kick Wei Jiani to death, but in the end, she held herself back.

This set of clothes were bought specially for her by Tang Zhinian during the New Year. Although she didn’t bring a lot of things with her, all her clothes were new. Her father always feared that she would be bullied and discriminated against at someone else’s home. So he always told her to keep herself clean and frequently change her clothes. Before she left, he also gave Sang Zhilan two hundred yuan, hoping that Sang Zhilan would take care of his child better.

Now her clothes were being worn by Wei Jiani. First, it’s her clothes, next it will be her shoes, then the money she earns, later her husband, and finally the house for which she worked herself to death to repay the loan.

Still, Tang Yuxin remained silent, appearing to be fearful. She was so obedient that she had no temper of her own. And everyone thought she was naive and easy to bully.

Little do they know, that what they have trapped in their home isn’t a sheep, but a wolf.

That day, Sang Zhilan and Wei Tian went to work, leaving the whole house to Tang Yuxin. Of course, Wei Jiani was home too.

Tang Yuxin has shown the greatest forbearance towards Wei Jiani. She has held herself back from choking her, from poisoning her, and from killing her. She would even help her put on spare clothes, brush her teeth, and wash her face. The only thing she hasn’t done yet is to eat for her.

She pushed open the door and went inside.

As soon as she stepped in, she heard the sound of heavy, gasping breaths.

She walked over to Wei Jiani, turned on the light, and sure enough found Wei Jiani down with an illness. Her face was red from fever, and her lips were parched and cracked.

Tang Yuxin simply watched coldly, then turned and left, showing no intention to interfere. It had nothing to do with her, and besides, Wei Jiani wouldn’t die.

Should she tell her to have the sympathy of a mother?

She would save anyone except Wei Jiani.

She was simply waiting, waiting for Wei Tian and his wife to come home.

By noon, the Wei couple would naturally come home for lunch. With a prepared meal at home, they could work a little longer at the factory. They could simply come home and eat without having to fuss about it themselves.

“Nini, daddy is home!”

As soon as Wei Tian stepped in, he called his daughter. But after waiting for a while, no one came out to greet him.

“Nini?” Wei Tian frowned. What happened to the child today? Every time he came home, she would always run over to greet him. What’s gotten into her today?

“Nini, daddy is home.”

Wei Tian called again, but Wei Jiani still didn’t come out.

“Yuxin, where’s Nini?”

Wei Tian asked in a dark tone, directing his question to Tang Yuxin, who was serving the food.

Tang Yuxin pointed to the room inside, “She didn’t get up.”

On hearing this, Wei Tian’s heart gave a leap. He had a bad feeling. He rushed into the room, turned the handle, and a moment later he dashed out, carrying Wei Jiani in his arms.

Wei Jiani was already delirious from the fever. Her face, fevered to a deep red, looked like it was on fire and she was crying intermittently.

“What happened?” Sang Zhilan also came out from the kitchen with a bowl of noodles. She saw Wei Tian running out with Wei Jiani in his arms, his face fraught with worry.

She quickly put the bowl aside and rushed over. But catching sight of Wei Jiani, she received a terrible shock. She put her hand onto Wei Jiani’s forehead, her touch so hot that Sang Zhilan quickly pulled her hand back.

Wei Tian glared fiercely at Tang Yuxin in the kitchen. “What happened?! Just look at what your daughter has done! Can’t she even provide basic care? Didn’t you say she studied medicine from others? Even if she can’t treat illnesses, she should at least have some common sense. Nini had such a high fever and all she could think of doing was eating?! Sang Zhilan, see what a white-eyed wolf you have raised. If anything happens to my Nini, I will kill your illegitimate child.”

Having said that, he hurriedly carried Wei Jiani out of the house.
