This is shown when the tale states, "They were beautiful, with fair faces, but evil and dark hearts." Before long, they begin to treat Cinderellavery poorly. "They took her beautiful clothes away from her, dressed her in an old gray smock, and gave her wooden shoes.
The stepmother and stepsisters treat Cinderella poorly and make her do all the chores (Cinderella is a rude nickname her sisters came up with, based on the cinders from the fireplace, where she would go to rest after she finishing cleaning). Conversely, Cinderella treats others with kindness.
The sisters are extremely jealous of Cinderella, as she is very beautiful and they are very ugly. In order to ensure no man will want to marry her, they reduce her to their maidservant and force her into waiting on them non-stop and doing all the dirtiest kitchen jobs.
After an unspecified amount of time living happily together as a family, Cinderella's father tragically died and Lady Tremaine revealed her true colors. She lets the chateau fall into disrepair while pampering her own selfishly spoiled daughters and forcing Cinderella to become a maid in her own home.
Why Cinderella was ill treated by her step mother and step sister?
It was mostly because of jealousy. The stepsisters were jealous of Cinderella because she was everything they weren't; beautiful, talented, kind, made friends easily, etc. The Stepmother was jealous because Cinderella's dad loved her more than his second wife, and for the same reasons the stepsisters didn't like her.

Why was Cinderella treated like a servant in her own house?
After her father dies, she is forced into servitude in her own home and is tormented by her evil stepmother, Lady Tremaine, and two stepsisters, Anastasia and Drizella. Lady Tremaine's hatred stems from the fact that Cinderella is more beautiful than her own daughters.
She was a young child whose parents had recently died. It would be tragic for anyone to lose their parents at a young age, but Cinderella also had an abusive stepfamily. Her stepmother verbally abused her and practically enslaved her for years, and Cinderella dealt with this because she didn't have another option.
Rather, she seeks to punish and abuse her psychologically, motivated by her jealousy of Cinderella being far more beautiful than her own awkward daughters, Anastasia and Drizella (although her abuse later extends towards them).
She can now forever turn her back on them without another word. And yet, before she leaves, she addresses her stepmother, the woman who has treated her so terribly, and says three simple but incredibly powerful words: “I forgive you.”
The ending stresses her virtue in not only forgiving her stepsisters but improving the conditions of their lives, unlike in other versions of the tale, where they are punished for their behavior.

Cinderella wants to attend, but her stepmother makes her stay home to clean the whole house. Cinderella cries as her stepsisters leave, but then is surprised by the appearance of her fairy godmother.
Cinderella had been suffering under the supervision of her stepmother ever since her father passed. In addition to dealing with her demanding stepsisters, the maiden was forced to care for a giant manor by doing all the cooking and cleaning.
Unfortunately for Cinderella, her beloved father passed away leaving her in the care and custody of Lady Tremaine (a.k.a. the evil stepmother). Lady Tremaine forces Cinderella to cook, clean, and serve her and her two daughters. It is obvious in the story that Cinderella and Lady Tremaine despise each other.
How was Cinderella's life different from the lives of her stepsisters?
While Cinderella is kind, patient, and sweet, her stepsisters are cruel and selfish. What is presented through these female characters, Cinderella being the central character, is a conflict between what personal traits are associated with physical traits.
Despite this, at least in the 2015 live-action remake, it's stated that Cinderella's father didn't die due to Lady Tremaine's fault and rather contracted an illness and passed away.
