Looking at the torn clothes that had only been worn twice, Zhang Sumei was furious. Was this girl doing it on purpose?

It must have been intentional, otherwise why would she choose to wash her own clothes instead of the others first?

She wanted to curse and yell, but when she thought about how unruly the brat was and the money she owed, she didn't dare.

But she couldn't swallow her anger, and in the short time she was distracted, she heard a 'ripping' sound again!

This brat has torn another pair of clothes!

She finally lost her temper and yelled, "You damned girl with the body of a young lady but the life of a maid, stop washing the clothes now! You'll ruin them all!"

If you have any complaints about me, just say so. Why take it out on my clothes?

Don't you know what's going on at home right now? You dare to tear such delicate things as clothes?

Liu Shile looked at her cheap mother with her beautiful big eyes and said innocently, "Mom, don't wrong me."

I don't know why these clothes are so fragile. They broke without me even applying any force. How can you blame me?

"The fabric of this garment must have been stored for too long, which is why it's not durable anymore."

This dress was a new one Zhang Sumei bought for herself last year, but it was made from an old fabric.

So at first glance, what she said seemed reasonable, but who doesn't understand the truth?

Zhang Sumei isn't stupid. This brat has been going against her all along. She must have deliberately torn her own clothes to avoid doing laundry!

So, will she be able to grant this brat's wish?

She really wanted to say no, but she was also heartbroken about her clothes—they were brand new clothes that she hadn't worn more than a few times!

So she felt a tightness in her chest; that brat must have figured out she wouldn't be willing to let go!

"Alright, alright, I know you did it on purpose, get out of here!"

In the end, Zhang Sumei couldn't help but feel heartbroken about the clothes, so she told Liu Shile to get lost.

Liu Shile didn't care at all. She leisurely stood up, moved to sit under the grapevine, and read a book.

That smug look only made Zhang Sumei's heart pound with anger.

If this brat weren't so hard to beat, she would have wanted to kill her with a feather duster.

Unfortunately, the little girl who used to let her beat her was gone, replaced by this sharp-tongued brat!

He really is an ungrateful wretch!

Zhang Sumei now regretted not killing the brat for fear of getting involved in someone's death.

Thinking this, she started blaming the meddlesome head maid again. If it weren't for her watching over and protecting her, that damned girl would have been dead without her even lifting a finger!

It's too late to regret it now, otherwise she wouldn't have come back this time.

Thinking that they had returned unharmed, Zhang Sumei became suspicious again. How did they get back?

Logically, this shouldn't be the case!

She was thinking about something, and her expression inevitably betrayed it, which Liu Shile, who was observing her with her spiritual power, saw clearly.

Liu Shile's gaze was fixed on the book in front of her, her expression calm and undisturbed.

However, this observation helped her to confirm some things, although she couldn't be completely sure yet, but she was not far off.

However, now that they're all back, those things probably won't happen so easily anymore, right?

After all, the public security situation is still quite good these days; people have been scared off by the ruthless measures taken in recent years.

So there aren't many people who dare to defy the rules and commit crimes.

So Liu Shile had no idea why those people on the road were courting death.

Isn't it better to just be a good person?

Zhang Sumei washed the clothes with a pained and aggrieved expression. In fact, the clothes belonged to her, her husband, and her lucky son.

So there's really nothing to feel wronged about; she just feels threatened by success!

She had never experienced this feeling in her decades of life, but this brat had managed to make her experience it.

Liu Weisong was pushed out for a stroll by Liu Shihua, so he couldn't hear or see her aggrieved expression at all.

When Liu Shihua pushed her father home right on time, the house was peaceful and quiet.

Zhang Sumei felt aggrieved, but she didn't lose her temper at the dinner table. However, she complained to Liu Weisong for a long time that night.

She had actually realized long ago that the brat was quite good to her husband; otherwise, she wouldn't have taken him to a big city to get treatment for his leg.

Therefore, she felt that having her husband suppress that brat would be more effective.

Unfortunately, Liu Weisong still had unresolved issues in his mind and was quite impatient to listen to her complaints.

It can only be said that Zhang Sumei is used to doing things her own way, so she doesn't think she has done anything wrong at all.

Because she received no response, Zhang Sumei pinched Liu Weisong a few times in anger before going to sleep.

So the next day, Liu Shihua and her brother left home empty-handed, without receiving a single grain of food.

In Zhang Sumei's words, they are also people with income. If they don't have enough food at home, let them find their own way. After all, they have income, right?

This will also ease some of the burden on the family, right?

Liu Weisong wanted to rebuke her shameless statement, but in the end he didn't say it.

Liu Shixi opened her mouth, but Zhang Sumei seized the opportunity to give her a severe scolding, which of course was meant for Liu Shihua and her brother to hear.

Too lazy to listen to her, Liu Shile directly stated that they would be responsible for their own tuition and living expenses from now on.

Thus, Zhang Sumei's pent-up resentment was successfully trapped in the mulberry's eye.

Liu Shihua and Liu Shile left decisively, but Zhang Sumei's mood was far from calm.

Are they really so confident that they can afford to send themselves to school?

Where do they get the confidence to be so tough?

"Old Liu, look at these two kids. I was just saying it casually, how could they take it so seriously?"

I'm their mother, how could I be so heartless? I just want them to bow their heads to me!

Tell me, they're just leaving like this, what are they going to do? Where will they get the money to go to school?

Don't do anything reckless outside, what will you do if you end up in jail?

As soon as they left, Zhang Sumei began her performance, and she spoke with such conviction that it seemed quite convincing.

Anyone who didn't know better would really think she was a good mother who cared deeply for her children.

Having lived together for decades, how could Liu Weisong not know his wife well?

So he said irritably, "What do you want to do now? They have their own way of life, don't worry about it."

He was so angry with his seemingly shrewd but actually stupid wife that he lost all his temper.

I wonder what her expression would be if she knew that Lele had several hundred yuan in her hand.

However, he didn't intend to tell anyone about it. He knew his wife was serious; she really didn't plan to pay for their education.

Once the wife finds out they have money, she will definitely try every means to get her hands on it, and then the two children will have no money to go to school.

Thinking of this, Liu Weisong's expression was extremely complicated, and his eyes were extremely conflicted. It took him a long time to regain his composure.

The brother and sister, who left so gracefully, were naturally unaware of all this.

Liu Shihua, however, felt that it wasn't good for them to be so confrontational with their family, and was advising her sister to be more lenient.

Liu Shile remained unmoved. It wasn't like she had provoked anyone. Since her cheap mother was determined to cause her trouble no matter what, why should she give in?
