"I don't understand what you're talking about."
"If you don't understand, fine. You're not my good daughter!"

"If I had known earlier, I would've let you die out there. Why did I bother bringing you back home? You have not only lost face for the whole family and made our family the laughing stock but also are narrow-minded and jealous of your younger sister! Why is it that you, of all people, are my biological daughter? You can't even match one-tenth of Mooresa! I must have committed some terrible crime in my previous life to have a daughter like you. This is my retribution!"
