Chapter 605 - 605 605 Did You Eat It
Chapter 605: Chapter 605: Did You Eat It? Chapter 605: Chapter 605: Did You Eat It? “Look at yourself now, you’re a bloody mess, how are you supposed to serve me later? Huh? You idiot, you never think about the consequences of your actions. Do you expect me to tolerate your hideous face that frightens even the ghosts away?”
“I…”
If this were before, Liu Rumei would have slapped Liu Baixiao right away. But now, she dares not to say a word out of line, nor move while Liu Baixiao continues to cause bruise after bruise on her body.
“I… I don’t have the money for Yushui’s pregnancy medicine.”
She muttered softly.
“What? You want to give that dead girl medicine?” When he heard her words, Liu Baixiao was even more angry.
“I thought you were asking for money for my sake, but it turns out it’s for that wastrel. That thing in her belly should have been aborted long ago. I will kick it out myself later! She always complains of stomach pain after doing work and eats up all the food. Why hasn’t she died yet? Cheap wench, just like you, all of you are worthless!”
Liu Rumei didn’t dare to respond, she could only look pitifully at Liu Baixiao.
“Go away, and clean yourself up!”
Liu Baixiao shivered with disgust at her sight, he waved his hand to dismiss her.
“Just seeing you brings me bad luck. Look at your barren belly, Yang Lin is the same age as you and had no problem getting pregnant, but you? No matter what, your belly remains flat. What use are you?”
Liu Rumei looked at Liu Baixiao sorrowfully, with a stifled anger in her heart, having nowhere to vent.
“Are you not going yet!”
Liu Baixiao reached out and twisted her again, scolding.
“If I had known your mother-daughter duo had such nasty temperaments, why would I have brought you back? If I had that money, I could have found someone more obedient. She could even bear me more sons and handle the household chores. Look at you, you can’t do anything right!”
Liu Rumei listened to his curses and went out with the basin.
She reached the courtyard, dumped the water haphazardly, put down her basin, wiped her tears, and went to Liu Yushui’s room.
“Mother, you’re here, where’s the food?” Liu Yushui was lying in bed, holding her stomach, at a loss of what to think. Hearing the door being pushed, she hurriedly struggled to sit up.
A pair of eager eyes swept towards Liu Rumei’s arms, she asked.
“Here, we only have this one today.”
Liu Rumei handed the bread she was hiding in her arms to Liu Yushui.
“Why is there only one? Didn’t we have two the other day?”
When Liu Yushui took the bread, she frowned and muttered unhappily to Liu Rumei.
“Mom, did you eat one?”
“What if I did?” Liu Rumei was already in a bad mood today. Her mouth still hurt, and the suspicion in her daughter’s words made her face go pale.
“Do you serve this whole family all day, and you’re not even allowed to eat a full meal? You really think I’m nothing more than an old slave?”
“Um.”
Liu Yushui was taken aback by her reprimand and hung her head guiltily.
Ever since the last incident, she no longer regarded Liu Rumei as her real mother. All she wanted now was to be well-fed and for the baby in her belly to be healthy, so she can marry into the Zhou family in the future.
“Mother, what are you saying? I care for your grandson. Isn’t this child our last hope?”
While it was true that the child was her safety net, it had nothing to do with her mother. She would never want to have anything to do with the Liu family in the future, not even the slightest bit!
