Chapter 13 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.
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?"
In her senior year of high school, she
neglected her studies in order to take care of her father, so that she failed to get into the medical university that Maisie hoped for. She fell in love after she graduated from high school, Maisie kept scolding her.
Martin showed a smile, "You are good girl. You are filial, clever, sensible, diligent and ambitious.. Your mother just wants you to be better. After all, parents expect their children to be successful."
"Well, I see." Elizabeth eased her mood and said with a smile, "Thank you Dad."
She hoped that the reason her mother was strict to her was as her father said.
Snow sent someone to carry out investigation on Elizabeth. Knowing that she was forced to find a job, broke up with her boyfriend and left LH City back to her hometown, Snow felt relieved. Next, Snow must think of a way to let the school leaders expel Elizabeth.
Because, in this way, Elizabeth would never appear in LH City and Snow felt safe in the position as a rich lady in Marsh Family.
At the thought of this, Snow felt happy.
It had been almost two months, and her villa in hometown should be finished soon!
Snow asked Butler Lau to arrange for that she wanted to go home in style.
It was a very busy day in the small town, not only because the sky was cloudless, but also because a million-dollar cinnabar red BMW was driving slowly down the road. Everyone stood on the roadside, looking at this beautiful BMW, as if it was a treasure.
Snow originally wanted to buy a red Lamborghini worth tens of millions, but Butler Lau refused, saying that Lamborghini was not suitable for bumpy road in the countryside. In desperation, Snow had to choose BMW which was ordinary to her.
When Snow's BMW passed by the door of the pharmacy of Maisie, Maisie pulled Elizabeth mo together out of the shop, standing on the roadside to watch.
It had been nearly two months that Elizabeth had not seen Snow. Snow sat in the back seat of the driver's seat, waving to the neighborhood.
Wearing a dazzling diamond ring on her right hand and heavy make-up, Snow was dressed more fashionably than ever, and her skin was particularly fine with her bright red lips.
At first, Elizabeth thought something had happened to her. Now it seemed that she really married a rich man, just as Maisie said.
To be married to a rich man had been Snow's dream.
Her dream had come true!
Elizabeth smiled, glanced at the envious Maisie, shook her head slightly, and turned back to the store.
Martin sat in front of the revenue table to sort out the books. Seeing that Elizabeth come in, he asked, "Elizabeth, do you envy?"
"Yes, I do. I'm not a saint. But I hope
in the future, can become an excellent interior designer, and then can drive a car that I bought with my own money. That will be awesome!" Elizabeth, with a smile on herface, was full of hope for his future.
As she spoke, she picked up the basket on the ground beside her and carried it behind her back.000
