Perhaps my words made my mother feel guilty, so she went to scold Lena Brown.

Not long after, Lena Brown came upstairs angrily, broke into my room, tore off her previous disguise, pointed at me and cursed.

"Serena Smith, you are nothing but a poor, stinky pig feeder! If you know what's good for you, get out of here, otherwise, I will definitely kick you out! I am my parents' only daughter, and all the family property will belong to me in the future. My parents won't like you! You don't know yet, in order to appease my emotions, my parents give me more pocket money than you every week. They only love me!"

I caught the key word - more pocket money than me?

“How much pocket money do they give you?”

Lena Brown said proudly, "Give me two thousand a week!"

I held my phone tightly. On WeChat, my mother sent me a message telling me my weekly pocket money, which was only five hundred yuan.

I used to think that five hundred dollars a week was an astronomical sum, but it turns out that Lena Brown's pocket money is four times as much as mine.

And it was given quietly to appease Lena Brown. I can't stand partiality, but I can't stand partiality for money.

So, when I collected my pocket money in the second week, I pretended to be surprised and said, "Huh? Mom, you gave me 500 again? Lena Brown said she always got 2,000. I thought Mom would give me the same amount fairly."

The mother smiled awkwardly, "Serena Smith, I'm just worried that you'll spend so much pocket money for the first time..."

After that, she gave me all the money, including the 1500 that she didn't give me last week.

I smiled at my mother and said, "Thank you, Mom. I thought you only liked Lena Brown and didn't like me, so you were partial. It turns out that's not the case!"

My mother repeatedly assured us that she treated both of us equally.

I just smiled faintly, but my heart was as clear as a mirror.

In their minds, Lena Brown was spoiled since she was a child, so it was natural for her to spend more money. But I was used to being poor, so 500 yuan was a huge sum of money for me.

Two thousand dollars, I don't deserve it.

I studied very hard, and my test scores improved each time.

Lena Brown tried her best to make trouble, trying to win the favor of her parents and drive me away.

With her intelligence, she has no other tricks except crying and pretending to be weak. She is clumsy and can't beat me.

I just regarded her as a clown. I should immerse myself in the ocean of knowledge instead of competing with a pretentious person.

However, it was not until my freshman year in high school that she touched my bottom line and hurt my family, the people I cared about most.
