Looking up, Shen Nian saw Miao Cuifen standing before her, an angry expression on her face. The thump on her forehead just now had clearly been Miao Cuifen's doing.
"Mom, why did you hit me?"
Shen Nian looked at Miao Cuifen with a pitiful look of grievance. 'I thought I did a great job today. I even scared Eldest Aunt away!'
"You silly girl, don't you know what kind of person your eldest aunt is? What did you think you were doing, trying to be a hero? Your father, mother, older brother, and younger brother are all here. Did you think we couldn't handle this and needed you to step up? You should have just stayed quietly to the side and left these things to us. I mean, honestly! What if your aunt had gotten furious and given you a beating? What then?"
Shen Nian was still rubbing her aching forehead as Miao Cuifen gave her a thorough scolding.
