Xu Xinrou's gifts lay broken and ruined on the floor. Su Rui stood up angrily, putting on the demeanor of the stern mistress of the house.
"Xu Xiyan, what are you doing? Do you know how expensive those gifts are? Look at yourself! You haven't brought anything home, not even a single blade of grass! Your sister is far better than you, far more thoughtful!"
Madam Xu frowned. "Why!? This girl's temper is just as bad as before! Hasn't she grown up at all?"
Xu Xiyan's chest puffed up and down in anger. She ignored the old lady and spoke to Su Rui directly.
"Tell me, Su Rui! Why do you keep Grandpa in the shed in corner of the yard? Why do you abuse him like this? Can you really believe that's a proper place for a human to live?"
"Who's abusing him?" asked Su Rui. "The old man is already senile. He's always confused and doesn't recognize anyone anymore. We can't let him move around freely. What if he wandered off and got himself lost?"
