Let's Get Married

When her aunt heard what she said, the smile on her face could not hold anymore. She shrugs as if she is cornered, “Bree, why do you say this, where did I upset her? How can you blame me and Ricky for Lily’s misfortune this year!”

“It’s evident who set off the provoking.” Bree is mad, but she mutters in a small voice, “You just can’t see others better than you!”

“You!” Her aunt is blocked till speechless, red and blue colored crisscross on her face.

The atmosphere is wrong here, the old people in the family also notice which make them look at the direction with dissatisfaction, “What’s wrong, why are you arguing on the Chinese New Year!”

“Mom, Dad, I didn’t say anything just now. Bree insists that I mock Lily. I know that Lily is indeed quite unhappy this year, I just mentioned it casually and she takes it seriously….”

“Are you saying casually?” Bree is honest and could not tell lies, “Your speech is full of divorce, if you didn’t upset her, then what?”

“Isn’t it true even if untold? Let alone I didn’t mean bad!” Her aunt glances at the two old people and deliberately says to provoke Bree, “Since Ricky is back with a girlfriend along, didn't it just make you jealous? Well, Lily was in the limelight before, but you also can’t stop others!”

“When did I say that?” Once she hears things she did not say, Bree loses her temper, “You’re talking nonsense!”

Her aunt does not reply positively, yet she says something to Ricky, “We’re all family. Harmony is the first thing. Ricky can hardly come back for the New Year, you’re really…”

Speaking of which, she slightly pauses as if speechless.

Little did Bree expect that giving a gift would bring her unreasonable challenge. Thus, she could not help but redden her eyes while listening to everything she said.

The two elderly in the family are both to Ricky’s favor. So they said partially, “Bree, don’t be angry. It’s New Year, polite and amiable is better!”

His words mean like Bree had just deliberately made the mess.
