Chapter 207 The Unjust Sister 22
Ma Xiaolan became famous again.

Notorious and infamous.

When the leader of the steel plant heard about this, he called Zhong Daming over and criticized him severely.

In the evening, Zhong Daming went home and beat Ma Xiaolan severely.

This was the first time that Ma Xiaolan was beaten by her husband after they had been married for many years.

Ma Xiaolan was not someone who would just take a beating. She was so angry that she scratched and clawed Zhong Daming, leaving his face covered with bruises.

Ma Xiaolan cried, "Who am I doing this for? It's for your two sons."

"We don't have any savings at home. They are growing up and will get married. As a father, can you afford the bride price?"

"Our house is so small, where are they going to live after they get married? You don't care about anything and I have to worry about everything. I do my best to plan, but it's all for your old Zhong family, wuwu..."

Ma Xiaolan burst into tears, feeling that she had devoted herself to the Zhong family, yet was beaten by her husband. She felt so wronged.

But in fact, she hated her sister in her heart.

She helped her sister raise the children, and also helped her to get into trouble. Her sister actually took away all her money, which her sister owed her. What's wrong with her asking Yuanchun to make money?

Yuanchun was paying off her mother's debt.

It should be.

On this day, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie came to the Zhong family. He was brought by the director of the steel plant himself.

The person who came was Zhongli Jing.

When Ma Xiaolan saw Zhong Lijing, she panicked, "Zhong... Zhong Lijing, why are you here?" Zhong Lijing laughed coldly, "If I hadn't come, I really wouldn't have known that this is how you, Ma Xiaolan, take care of the orphans of martyrs?"

"me……"

Ma Xiaolan was flustered and didn't know how to explain, nor could she explain anything.

Zhong Lijing gritted his teeth and said, "My second brother sacrificed himself for the country, leaving behind only this one drop of his blood. What did you promise me at the beginning? You said you would take good care of Wenwen and would never let her suffer any grievances. But what did you do? Wenwen was so young, how could you bear to let her do so much work and even make her sick from exhaustion."

"Ma Xiaolan, my second brother left me a legacy of more than 3,000 yuan. You said you would take good care of Wenwen, so I gave the money to you for safekeeping. You also said you would treat Wenwen well, and when Wenwen grows up, this money will be her dowry."

"My second brother owns a courtyard house in Beijing. The monthly rent is 30 yuan. I will send it to you without missing a cent as Wenwen's living expenses. Ma Xiaolan, 30 yuan a month is not enough to support my niece. You still let my niece get up early and pick up garbage to make a living?"

Zhongli Jing glared at Ma Xiaolan viciously, scaring Ma Xiaolan so much that she retreated to the door of Yuanchun's room.

Yuanchun was packing her luggage, but there was actually nothing to pack. The original owner's clothes were all tattered and there was not a single good piece. Even though the neighbor lady later accused Zhong Daming of mistreating her, Zhong Daming and Ma Xiaolan never thought of buying her new clothes.

The bedding was also tattered, thin and hard, not warm at all. Yuanchun didn't want to bring a pile of rags to school.

So she piled all her clothes on the bed.

Ma Xiaolan pushed the door open and Zhong Lijing saw her small room.

Zhong Lijing recognized her at the first sight, "Wenwen, you must be Wenwen, you look exactly like your father, especially your eyes, they are exactly the same."

Zhong Lijing didn't bother to settle accounts with Ma Xiaolan. He wanted to go into the hut, but it was too small for him to stand. He stood at the door and looked at his niece eagerly, "Wenwen, I am your uncle Zhong Lijing."
