"My mom has already started looking at potential suitors for me these past two days. They want me to get married as soon as possible. Maybe then I can even lend a hand to the family."
As Ye Shiying spoke, tears threatened to fall from her eyes.
Ye Wanwan slightly furrowed her brow, but this time it wasn’t out of impatience, rather, she thought about Ye Shiying’s marriage partner in her previous life.
In her last life, all her attention was on Shen Yi, and since she originally didn’t get along with Ye Shiying, she actually knew very little about Ye Shiying’s marital situation.
But she remembered, in her previous life, she did attend Ye Shiying’s wedding. Ye Shiying married into the Qin Family, what was that man’s name again?
Ye Wanwan couldn’t quite remember, but that wasn’t the point, the point was that the man was abusive!
Even she, who barely paid any attention to Ye Shiying, knew Ye Shiying had married an abusive man, which was enough to show the severity of the man’s abuse.
Ye Wanwan didn’t like Ye Shiying, merely because Ye Shiying had bullied her when they were children. But after all, those were matters of the past.
Compared to the much more significant matter of Ye Shiying’s future lifetime happiness, Ye Wanwan felt she should still remind her.
"Cousin, you can’t rely on our uncle and aunt, you should quickly become independent and get rid of them as soon as possible."
"Marriage is not a trivial matter, it concerns your life for the next few decades."
"You shouldn’t listen to our uncle and aunt, treating marriage like a transaction, or else you’ll only hurt yourself."
Ye Wanwan always felt that way, how could one possibly count on parents who valued sons over daughters?
As for marriage, her previous life’s misfortunes were of her own doing, but it wasn’t the same for Ye Shiying. Her marriage was inherently unlucky.
Living with a man who was abusive, just thinking about it, Ye Wanwan felt those days must have been utterly bleak.
"I don’t want to just marry anyone, but what can I do?" Ye Shiying didn’t want to either, but she had never had the right to refuse, all she could do was obediently follow orders.
"Cousin, you’re an adult now, no one can force you if you’re unwilling." Ye Wanwan didn’t understand why Ye Shiying couldn’t grasp such a simple concept.
But Ye Shiying just shook her head, "If I dare to defy them, they will surely disown me as their daughter!"
Ye Wanwan couldn’t help but laugh in exasperation, "Right now, do they even treat you like a daughter?"
Any parents with a shred of conscience wouldn’t just casually find someone to marry off their daughter, only for the sake of their son-in-law lending a hand to the family.
Isn’t that just the same as selling their daughter off?
"But if I leave the Ye Family, I will have nothing." Ye Shiying still wasn’t willing to break ties with her parents.
Ye Wanwan was stunned for a moment before she finally understood what Ye Shiying meant.
Even if she disliked Ye Shiying, Ye Wanwan couldn’t just ignore her knowledge that Ye Shiying would end up with an abusive man.
She advised Ye Shiying not to listen to our uncle and aunt, and to leave the Ye Family and become independent, all to prevent Ye Shiying from encountering that man again.
But Ye Shiying’s words implied that she couldn’t give up the relatively superior life she currently had at the Ye Family.
Indeed, the uncle and aunt truly favored boys over girls, but at the end of the day, Ye Shiying was their biological child. Although they didn’t dote on her, they never mistreated her either.
Ye Shiying’s life at the Ye Family could be described as Wuyou.
