The twelve-year-old girl's face swelled after being hit, and a glaring imprint of five fingers could be seen.
Sabrina was so scared she did not even dare to cry.
She only looked at Mary's parents with shock and horror.
She did not want to come to a rich person's house.
She needed to take care of her father after school every day and carry water for her mother on top of all her homework.
However, that family chose her. If she did not attend that experiential activity, she would not even be able t o hand in her homework. On top of that, her father would not obtain the thirty bucks that were handed out to the poor for medical expenses every month.
Sabrina came under her mother’s advice.
She did not think that the family would be so fierce, but Sabrina did not dare to tell her parents out of worry that she would hurt them.
After Mary's mother slapped her, she was consoled," Little girl, I'm doing this for your own good. You're a little girl from the countryside. You don't understand anything. The journalists wanted to publicize you to improve your situation. It's not appropriate for you to d o this. It's very rude." 1
"I always hit big sister Mary just as sternly. I couldn't control myself for a moment, so don’t blame me, okay?"
Sabrina nodded, "It's okay, I won’t fault you. I’ll be very obedient. I don’t know how to cook, but I know how to wash the clothes, sweep the room and fold the blankets. I know everything."
Sabrina was a smart child.
Sabrina used every trick in the book to smoothly live i n that house for a week and avoid getting hit again.
In the morning, she would wake up and clean the guest room before boiling water in the house. She did not even wait for Mary's mother to wake up to cook for her. She would get some bread and have it with jam and water before carrying her bag and heading to school.
When she returned from school, she even washed Mary's parents' clothes and stinky socks.
Mary's mother even praised her.
Sabrina was very happy.
Mary's mother smiled when she saw how obedient Sabrina was. She smiled as she told Sabrina, "Sabbie, good girl. We'll have some guests at home today, so you don't have to do all the chores. You should see how I receive my guests later. It would be something you country kids wouldn’t be able to see. You would be able to expand your horizons that way."
