Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Paying a Visit to Settle Accounts_1 Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Paying a Visit to Settle Accounts_1 “Mom, I didn’t take your money. Could you have miscounted?” Jiang Minmin said, secretly slipping a fifty into her sock.
“Mom, I’m a nurse now, working at the county hospital. I’m earning a salary now, why would I need to take your money?”
“Hmph! You’ve got a wage, but I haven’t seen a penny come back home. You little coquette, all you know is how to spend, never thought about chipping in for the household.”
“All you care about is saving money for my brother. You never thought about giving me more pocket money,” Jiang Minmin complained.
As the two began to argue in the room, Jiang Hui ran in with his little short legs from outside, shouting at the top of his lungs, “Mom, someone’s trying to kill me, someone’s trying to kill me.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Yongxia sprang into action. Her son was her lifeline, her foothold that helped her rule the household and keep everyone under her heel. If anyone dared to harm him, she’d tear a piece of flesh from their body.
“What happened? Who bullied you?” Liu Yongxia hurriedly locked her money away, forgetting her demand for money from Jiang Minmin, and turned to rush out.
Just as she ran out of the room, Jiang Hui burst in like a small cannonball, toppling her onto the ground.
“My darling, who dared to bully you? Don’t they want a good life anymore?” Liu Yongxia cradled her son into her arms, cooing sweet words of comfort.
“Who bullied you? Tell me.”
“It was Zhang Fengmei, she hit me, and she wants to kill me,” Jiang Hui angrily tattled, pointing to his own ear, “Look, my ear is all red, it’s from Zhang Fengmei pinching it, and she pinched really hard.”
“What?” Liu Yongxia rolled up her sleeves in a fury, “What a little bitch, who gave her such audacity? She always seemed so meek, who knew she could be so malicious.”
Jiang Minmin followed up behind, enflaming the situation, “Mom, I told you, that third aunt and her family are all no-good. They’re good at playing the victim, pretending to be innocent. They like to maintain a good reputation in the village, while they sneakily cause you to get badmouthed.”
Hmph! She had warned her earlier. The grudge of being humiliated at the hospital, she intended to take revenge. She didn’t believe anyone could outshout her mother.
She couldn’t wait to see the sight of Jiang Nanfei’s family being berated and looking beaten down like a dog that lost its home.
Let them be proud, let them be arrogant, but they should consider their own moral quality first.
They deserved to be unlucky.
Jiang Minmin had some self-awareness. She knew her own mother was being badmouthed behind her back in the village.
Unfortunately, Jiang Minmin had this self-awareness, but Liu Yongxia didn’t. She always thought highly of herself, being the eldest sister-in-law of the Jiang family. Her husband was a doctor, her daughter was a nurse, her son was smart and well-behaved.
All the women in the village combined did not have as good a life as her, as popular as her.
Now, suddenly hearing her daughter speak in such a way, her glare widened so much that her white eyes overwhelmed her pupils, scaring Jiang Hui into backing away a little.
“Who is it? Who dares to badmouth me behind my back. I knew it, it must be Zhang Fengmei, I knew she was no good,” Liu Yongxia said, yanking Jiang Hui to his feet.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to seek revenge.”
Hearing the word “revenge,” the chubby kid clapped his hands in delight. “Oh! Revenge, that’s great!”
The family of three stormed out of the house towards Nanfei’s home.
