Rebirth: My Mother is a Virgin Mary

Chapter 89: Lesson of the Counterfeit

I really find it hard to understand this kind of behavior. Doesn't this person have any self?

I have seen people who like to imitate others before. As a bystander, I feel uncomfortable watching them, let alone the person involved. Don’t say things like “someone imitating you means you are excellent”. Just imagine that no matter what you do, there is someone who wants to reproduce it one-to-one, treat your experience as his own life, and try to get similar achievements and honors as you through this means. It would be strange if you don’t feel disgusted…

I looked at the small blackboard on her stall. Isn't it... the same painting? At least change the painting around the words! People who copycat know to change similar words, such as changing "Xue Bi" to "Lei Bi", "Kang Shifu" to "Kang Shuai Fu" and so on. Hers... except that the handwriting is not as smooth as mine and the painting is not as beautiful as mine, what else is different?

I resisted the nausea and walked to her stall, staring at her with an undisguised disgust. I have a small black mole above my right eyelid, which was accidentally poked out with a ballpoint pen when I was a child. Not many people can see this mole even when I put on makeup. I felt a strong sense of discomfort in my heart. If I hadn't observed carefully, how could she also have a black mole on her right eyelid, in the same position as mine, and it looked like it was dotted with eyeliner.

"Chen Ruyue..." I closed my eyes and recalled her name, "Your name is Chen Ruyue, right?"

Chen Ruyue showed a panicked look as soon as she saw me coming, as if her secret had been exposed. She looked guilty and stood up, picking her fingers nervously. She said in a mosquito-like voice: "My name is Chen Qin..."

Cheng Xinyuan and Qin Luotian didn't hear what she said clearly, so they asked, "What did you say?"

I snorted coldly. I was closest to her, so of course I heard what she said clearly. "Chen Ruyue... Ruyue... These two words are so good as a name... Like the rising of the moon, like the constant of the sun. When your parents gave you this name, it must have contained beautiful meanings, pure, beautiful and wise. But now it seems that you have failed your parents' expectations... Do your parents know that you changed your name? If I'm not mistaken, your mother's surname is Qin, right? Why, do you even want to copy my name?"

I tilted my head and said to Qin Luotiantian: "Her mother is still your relative~"

"There are so many people with the last name Qin!" Qin Luotian's face turned pale, and he felt insulted when he looked at Chen Ruyue for even a second longer.

"Chen Ruyue, what do you want to do?" I looked at her quietly, waiting for her answer.

"I...I...I..." Chen Ruyue picked at her fingers and couldn't utter a complete sentence. It was so annoying. Why did he speak in the same tone as Cheng Xingmin?

"You look a few years older than me, so I don't know how to imitate someone younger than you. Do you really want to be a fake?" I crossed my arms, frowned, and had a powerful aura. From the outside, Chen Ruyue and I look similar. People who don't know us might really think we are sisters, but if you take a closer look, you will find that one is humble and cowardly, and the other is confident. If you don't say it's a world of difference, then it's completely different.

“I don’t mean anything else…” Chen Ruyue waved her hands hurriedly, “I just think you are very good, so good that I envy you, and so good that I also want to be someone like you, so I…” Chen Ruyue felt wronged and excited, and was about to cry.

"You have to imitate because you think it's good?! There are so many good things in this world, why do you want to imitate them?! Isn't it disgusting!" Cheng Xinyuan resisted the urge to overturn the stall. He kept reminding himself: I must never become a person like Cheng Xingmin!

But this guy was too much. He stopped as soon as he saw his sister coming. Where did his pretend strong social skills go?

"No... I really think Cheng Lin is good. She is how I imagined myself to be when I grow up. I... I think I am quite similar to her. I think... I can also become someone like her... I... I really have no ill intentions!" Chen Ruyue hurriedly tried to excuse herself.

"Don't lie with your eyes open. How dare you say that you look like my sister? You can't even compare to my sister's nail clippings!" Cheng Xinyuan had never hated a woman so much.

"Do you really want to?" I directly exposed Chen Ruyue's thoughts, "Want to be me? Or replace me directly? Chen Ruyue, we can't say we are familiar with each other, at best we are acquaintances. You often patronized my business before, I thank you, but now it seems that you also planned it. It's really weird, don't you have a self, don't you have dignity? Or is imitating others your self? I shouldn't be the first person you imitate, being imitated by someone like you really... makes me sick to the point of wanting to vomit!"

I glanced at the chicken feet in her food box, which was still full, and said contemptuously, "When I sell chicken feet, there is no soup left after forty minutes at most. On the other hand, you...even if you are imitating, you should be more careful. I will tell you the recipe without leaking any information, but looking at the quality of the chicken feet you made...tsk tsk tsk tsk, let alone whether they can be sold out, no one will want them even if they are given away for free! I use lemon for its flavor, not as a garnish like you do. Aren't you reluctant to use up all the lemons for so many chicken feet? And this pickled pepper...hiss...I always use a can, I told you that, but looking at it now, I'm afraid you won't be able to use up this can before the Chinese New Year! If you want to do business, you have to be willing to spend the cost, otherwise you will end up losing everything!"

I still looked disdainful, "Imitation is just superficial, perfunctory and impetuous. It's strange that it can attract business! Chen Ruyue, I warn you, I don't care who you pretend to be at home, but if you come out and wander around under the name of imitating me..." I waved my hands and looked at her in an "evil" way, "I'm going to get a pointy manicure tomorrow. If I see you like this again, I'll scratch your face! You want to imitate me, right? Do you know who I am? I even beat and scold my own father, who are you?"

Chen Ruyue was obviously frightened by me. She thought I was always the calm and peaceful person I was when I was setting up the stall. "It seems that you didn't see the trouble that day, otherwise you might not have the heart to imitate me. You think I'm an angel, but I'm actually a devil! Chen Ruyue, I don't care who you want to imitate, but it can't be me. You don't deserve it and I find it disgusting! I won't advise you to be yourself or anything, because you don't have it. Your life has nothing to do with me. But if you want to covet my life, then you've really kicked the steel plate. I guarantee that this steel plate will smash your head and make you bleed!"

Chen Ruyue's face was pale, and she stood there with her fists clenched, not moving at all.

I said self-deprecatingly, "What do you envy of me? Do you know how I lived through the first twenty years? Do you know how I got my name? Why do you imitate me and choose a similar one? You don't even know me, but you want to be like me based on your subjective guesses about me... Heh, Chen Ruyue, if you really plagiarized my life, I would be glad. I can survive the sufferings I've gone through, but you may not. You might die right at the beginning! Don't overestimate your own abilities!"

When I was leaving, I turned to her and said, "If you have any dignity, don't set up a stall in the future. I see no one around here welcomes you, and it will affect other people's business. You can set up a stall, but go find another one and imitate them. This is not your track and you won't be able to squeeze in even if you force your way in!" I didn't care about what others were saying and just left a cool back to everyone.

Cheng Xinyuan and Qin Luotian followed behind me a few steps slowly. When I was teaching Chen Ruyue a lesson, Dalong and Squid were not idle at all. They were busy making food for us. At this moment, Cheng Xinyuan and the others were busy receiving food. Of course, we won't eat for free. No matter how good our relationship with Dalong and Squid is, they still have to do business. Amid Dalong and Squid's "denunciation", Cheng Xinyuan and Qin Luotian still scanned the code to pay.

I looked at the food that Cheng Xinyuan and the others were carrying. They were eating one meal after another. If you ask me what I ate the most this summer, it must be octopus balls and grilled squid. Hey, are octopus and squid essentially the same thing?

I taught Chen Ruyue a lesson today, but I don’t know if it worked. If it doesn’t work, I’ll come back tomorrow to check. If she dares to come again, I’ll really beat her!

But at that time, I didn’t know that I would have so much to do with Chen Ruyue in the future.
