Witty Wife, Better Life

Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Crossing Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Crossing “…Stop lying in bed already, you want to eat your fill and not do any work? Where do you find such a good deal? I have endless chores every day, worrying about this and that, and here you are, playing mind games with me. Isn’t it enough already…”

Shen Feiyang clenched her teeth, the pain in her head intensifying non-stop, bursting as though it was going to explode. She groaned, wanting to clutch her head with her hands, but she couldn’t lift them. Thankfully, after that most severe bout, the headache slowly subsided, and then she heard the noisy voice beside her.

“…I’m telling you, your mother was just no good. So self-absorbed, how could she raise a proper child… A girl your age, good for nothing, eats everything and leaves nothing behind. Your mother spoiled you before, but our family can’t afford to spoil you now…”

Shen Feiyang felt someone yank her arm fiercely. Her body, without consciousness, skewed with the force, almost tumbling off the kang. With such strength, if she didn’t die, she’d have to open her eyes.

“You’ve finally woken up, hurry down to the production team. Your uncle asked me to call you. Those old sheep have been penned up and starving. If something happens to them, even selling you wouldn’t cover the loss,” Shen Fuzhen said, hands on her hips and eyes glaring at her niece with displeasure.

“Second Aunt, I feel terrible, no strength in my body.” Shen Feiyang, upon seeing who had come, was very certain she didn’t recognize the woman in front of her, but somehow she could call out that the visitor was the Second Aunt…
Shen Fuzhen looked disdainfully at her niece, “Feel terrible? Who doesn’t? Just because you feel terrible, you think you can lie on the kang and sleep all day? Great, I should feel terrible every day then, and let your little brother and uncle starve, huh? Not to criticize you, but at your age, what are you thinking, not doing anything all day but waiting for a meal to fall from the sky.”
