Ma Xiangmei was stunned.
She knew her mother had changed, but didn't expect her personality had completely transformed.
It's simply a complete turnaround.
The son she previously adored, now she couldn't wait to drive him to desperation.
The son she previously couldn't wait to drive to desperation, now she's doting on.
Ma Xiangmei wanted to laugh, she was happy for her big brother and sister-in-law, but she had no sympathy for Laosan. When Laosan was favored, he leveraged his mother's bias to bully the other siblings.
Because she was close in age with him, Ma Xiangmei was bullied by him from childhood to adulthood. Even in school, she had to act like a servant, following behind him, carrying his backpack, doing homework, and doing chores.
Ma Xiangmei dropped out after graduating from primary school because Ma Laosan said she was a worthless investment, and even her mother agreed that schooling was a waste of money.
