Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Emma cried as she said, “You… hold it steady. There aren’t many tears in the basin to begin with. If you spill them…” The two little guys were sweating profusely. One cried, and the other raised the basin. After a while, the basin finally received a few tears. Emma blinked and couldn’t cry anymore.
Seeing this, Amelia immediately went to get a glass of water. “Sister Emma, you have to drink water. There’s no water in your eyes.”
Emma immediately drank a large glass of water, but she still couldn’t cry.
Amelia didn’t give up and poured her another glass. “It’s okay, drink more!”

Amelia looked sympathetic. “What should we do? If the washbasin can’t be filled, will Grandma be angry and not give you food?”
Emma burst into tears! Amelia’s eyes lit up and she hurriedly raised the basin.
When George brought Lucas and William back, he saw Emma crying and hiccupping in the living room, as well as Amelia holding a basin to help Emma collect her tears. Mia was still shouting, “Fighting! Fighting! Sister Emma, fighting!
George frowned and asked, “What happened?”
Amelia turned around and quickly explained, ‘Eldest Uncle, Grandma asked Sister Emma to fill the basin with tears and to not stop until it’s full. We’re trying our best.”
George:
Emma wanted to cry again when she saw George, but she really couldn’t cry anymore. She was so tired, and her eyes hurt. She didn’t want to cry anymore.
Emma looked at George pitifully. “Eldest Uncle, in the future, I won’t cry anymore. Can you tell Grandma to change a smaller basin for me?
Amelia shook her head from the side. “No, a basin is too big. Eldest Uncle, why don’t you tell Grandma and change to a cup?” She looked down at the tears in the basin and felt that it was quite difficult to fill a cup. Sister Emma usually loved to cry, but she couldn’t even fill a cup…
George:
William was good at math. He put his hands in his pockets and explained to his two sisters, “Normal people only cry about five milliliters of tears a time. A basin needs ten liters of water, which is 10,000 milliliters. If you cry once a day, you will need to cry for 2,000 days. Not counting the amount of evaporation, you won’t be able to cry enough to fill this basin even if you cry for five years.”
Emma pouted. “Then what should I do? I really can’t cry anymore.”
Amelia thought for a moment. “Then continue crying tomorrow.” Five years was not a long time. In the blink of an eye, it would have passed! She murmured and comforted Emma.

George said, “Mia, bring Emma out to play. Eldest Uncle will tell Grandma.”
Amelia hurriedly nodded and pulled Emma upstairs. “Sister Emma, leave quickly.” She was so fast, as if she was afraid that her grandmother would go back on her word.
Lucas and William were speechless. They only felt that Emma was stupid, and Amelia was also a little stupid. Grandma had asked them to cry a basin of tears, but they really went and tried to cry a basin of tears? It would be embarrassing if word got out about such stupid sisters. In the future, they must not admit to others that they were their sisters. The two boys each carried a school bag and returned to their rooms coolly.
On the other side, Sarah was angry and disheveled. She carried her suitcase back to her parents’ house. When Emma’s maternal grandmother opened the door and saw Sarah’s bags, she asked in surprise, “What are you doing?
Sarah pushed the door open and threw everything on the ground. She completely exploded. “That damn old woman from the Walton family actually chased me out!”
Emma’s grandmother was stunned, and then she got angry right on the heels of that. “What right does she have to kick you out?”
Sarah: “What else could it be? She said that I don’t know how to educate children and asked me to divorce Dylan!” She recounted what had happened in the Walton family’s manor just now. M/hen Emma’s grandmother heard this, she was furious and immediately placed her hands on her hips and scolded, “What kind of person is this! As a mother, you don’t know how to educate children. Could it be that as a grandmother, she knows how to educate children? She even asked you to get lost in front of the children. How much damage would this do to the children?! What exactly is that old woman trying to do?! Does she think this is ancient times where parents make the decisions for marriage?! It’s a new era now! As a mother-in-law, she has to know to draw a line with her daughter-in-law. Your mother-in-law is such a sh*t stirrer!
The mother-daughter pair criticized the Walton family endlessly. After scolding this and that, it seemed like the fault belonged to everyone else. It was everyone else who had let them down..
