Chapter 11 You Did It Again
She did not know why Snow broke up with her before, now, she finally understood.
Everyone in this village knew what kind of person her mother was.
“Don’t you understand what I’m talking about? Simple! I will not support you to the junior college. If you want to finish college, you can earn your tuition and living expenses. I know you worked while you were in school. Where is the money you earn through your work-study program? Where is it?” Maisie asked angrily.
Elizabeth was silent.
Maisie gushed again, “You probably gave the money to that poor boy Conor! Learn from Snow, have a rich boyfriend! Since you have low degree in school and do not have ability to make big money, you should know someone rich! What’s the use of your beauty? You don’t even take advantage of it!”
Elizabeth was speechless.
She didn’t agree with her mother, so she said nothing.
Martin sat aside and could not get a word in edgewise.
Elizabeth was silent for a moment. Although her eyes were full of sadness, anger and hatred, she said with ambition, “I will not learn from Snow to pick on rich men. I won’t learn Conor who dislikes the poor but loves the rich. So what with my junior college degree? I am not capable now, it does not mean that I will be incapable forever. I will earn money by myself, at least I fell at ease to spend them!”
“Elizabeth, I support you! You will have a promising future!” Martin thumbed up immediately to Elizabeth.
Her father was the only one understood her in the family.
Maisie no longer argued with Elizabeth.
Anyway, what was the point of just bickering?
When Maisie had finished her meal, she put the chopsticks on the table and stood up, giving an impatient order, “Wash the bowls as soon as possible, and then go to the mountains to pick up some herbs.”
“Fine!” Elizabeth responded lightly.
Maisie was not satisfied again and began to chatter, “You did not go home every time you have a holiday. Now that you’re home, go to work! Score, washed and air-dry the herbs after you.collect them. I wanted you to learn some medicine from your grandmother, hoping that you would become a doctor in the future. However, you failed to go to a medical university, but study in an architecture school to learn interior design. I wonder what’s going on in your head!”
Maisie’s words had always been unpleasant to hear.
Although Elizabeth had been accustomed to it, occasionally she talked back.
Martin was always a good man beside him, trying to ease the anger of the mother and daughter.
Maisie went to the pharmacy downstairs. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
After Martin finished eating, Elizabeth got up to clear the table.
Seeing she was unhappy at home, Martin said to her, “Elizabeth! Why don’t you go to work in your brother’s city this summer vacation? With your brother to be with you, at least I feel relieved!”
“Dad, am I really as bad as Mama says?” Elizabeth asked with a dejected heart, “Why does mom always have so much dissatisfaction with me?”
