Chapter 196 The Unjust Sister 10
She couldn't tell her elder daughter that she had been pretending to be sick just to get her to do more work.

"Mom, let's go. If you don't bring any money, we'll put it on Dad's account."

The steel plant has its own hospital, so family members don’t have to bring money to see a doctor. They can just put the bill on the steel plant employee’s bill.

Yuanchun dragged Zhong Ma away.

Someone saw this and asked, "Yuanchun, where are you taking your mother?"

"It's Aunt Zhao. My mom has always been in poor health. She can't even do basic tasks like cooking, washing clothes, or sweeping the floor. You said my mom is still so young, not even 40 years old, and her health is so bad. I feel so bad that I want to take her to the hospital for a checkup, but she doesn't want to go."

"Sister Ma, this is your fault. You are not in good health. Your child is so filial to you, you should go see him. But, Sister Ma, I see that you are in good health. Are you really so weak that you can't even do housework?"

"Yes, Aunt Zhao, ever since I was eight years old, I have been doing all the housework in my family. My mother said that she was too weak to do it and would get sick if she did it."

"Oh, why don't you go to the hospital for a checkup right away? It's been so many years, what if you delay and develop a serious illness?"

Aunt Zhao is also a kind-hearted person and wants to go with the mother and daughter.

Yuanchun was willing to do so. "Thank you, Aunt Zhao."

"What are you thanking me for? We are neighbors in the same factory, so we should help each other."

In fact, Aunt Zhao just wanted to watch the fun.

Sister Ma had a rosy complexion and looked extremely healthy, but she lied to her children, saying she was sick and coaxed her eight-year-old child into doing all the housework.

It's really wicked. Yuanchun, on the other hand, had a sallow complexion, was skinny, and looked very unwell.

Yuanchun deliberately dragged Zhong's mother and took a detour to crowded places, which attracted several talkative and nosy aunts and sisters to go to the hospital to join in the fun.

So, a huge group of people rushed to the hospital and, despite Zhong's mother's refusal, insisted on giving her a full-body examination.

The result, of course, is good health.

Yuanchun immediately started to act.

She cried out in grievance, "Mom, you lied to me, you have been lying to me all along, you said you were in poor health and couldn't do housework, so you made me wash clothes at the age of five, learn to cook at the age of six, and do all the housework at the age of eight, wuwu...Mom, how could you lie to your own daughter like this? I was only eight years old at that time, I had to take care of my brother and do housework. I was busy until late at night every day before I could go to bed. Mom, how could you bear it?"

"For your health, I have been doing all the housework by myself for nine years. I have to go to school, take care of my younger brothers and sisters, pick up garbage and coal slag to buy vegetables and steamed buns for the family, and help you make matchboxes. I get up at four in the morning and work until the evening. For ten years, I have been spinning like a top every day. It has been nine years. Mom, look at me, I am so tired and thin. Don't you feel sorry for me? I am your own daughter, Mom..."

Mother Zhong was questioned by her daughter in public, and a group of acquaintances were watching with gloating joy. She was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to dig a cellar and crawl into it.

"No, Yuanchun, I...my body has only recovered in the past two years. I was really weak before that. Yuanchun, you believe me."

Mother Zhong can only try hard to restore her image in the eyes of her daughter and neighbors.

But who would believe it?

An old lady said, "Yuanchun's mother, you always look very healthy and never look sick. How could you lie to your daughter just to be lazy?"
