When Wu Yanyun didn’t speak for a long time, Grandma Wu got angry.
"You ungrateful girl! Where are the clothes? Where are the clothes? Our old Wu family has really raised a white-eyed wolf! You don’t have a shred of gratitude. You will go and live a good life at Wu Qiang’s place in the future, do you still care about those two new outfits? I raised you, and that’s certainly worth more than those two bags of clothes!"
Wu Yanyun was numb by now. She walked behind the bed, took out the two bags of new clothes, and handed them to Grandma Wu.
Seeing the new clothes, Grandma Wu’s face looked slightly more pleased as she continued, "Is this all?"
"Mhm." Wu Yanyun nodded her head.
"Did you hide any?" Grandma Wu somewhat disbelieved Wu Yanyun.
"Really none?" Such nice clothes, she just couldn’t believe Wu Yanyun didn’t keep any to herself.
Grandma Wu placed the clothes on the table, "No, I must search."
Wu Yanyun sighed and did not stop Grandma Wu.
The room was small, separated into two sections, with only a bed and a broken cabinet.
Grandma Wu searched thoroughly and, finally satisfied that Wu Yanyun had hidden nothing, she took the two bags of clothes and left.
She specifically left through the side door. If she had left through the front door, she surely would have been seen by Wu Jinshu and his wife, Yan Erju.
Wu Jinjin was already waiting for Grandma Wu in her bedroom.
Wu Jinjin was the instigator of this situation and did not dare show her face in front of Wu Jinshu and Yan Erju.
What if they decided to act ruthlessly?
"Mom!" When she saw Grandma Wu enter, Wu Jinjin immediately stood up, "Are these the new clothes you were talking about?"
"Mhm." Grandma Wu nodded her head and handed the bag to Wu Jinjin.
Wu Jinjin was like a hungry wolf spotting a lamb, her eyes sparkling as she took the bag and dumped out all the clothes, exclaiming continuously, "Oh my! Oh my! These clothes are all imported! I saw this one in the department store, it was over a hundred yuan!"
These clothes were all new, the tags still hadn’t been removed.
"I think I can wear this dress," Wu Jinjin picked up a lace-edged dress and held it up against herself, "then I’m keeping this one."
Wu Jinjin was not tall. On Wu Yanyun, it was a short skirt, but on her, it became a long dress, which looked very uncoordinated.
But she had never seen anything so fine and felt that wearing this dress would turn her into a glamor girl from a big poster.
Grandma Wu continued, "You’re so happy now, but your brother and your sister-in-law are furious with me! Especially your brother, he is really unfilial. I’ve worked so hard to raise him, and he even calls me a crazy old woman, saying I’m sick!"
"What?" Wu Jinjin immediately put down the clothes in her hand, "My brother dares to say that about you?"
"That’s right," Grandma Wu continued, "And your Yan Erju is just another outsider. She even dared to come at me with a kitchen knife wanting to kill me! Tell me, what bad karma have I created?"
Grandma Wu had been holding back her anger for days, and now with Wu Jinjin there, she surely wanted to vent.
Hearing this, Wu Jinjin was furious, "Mom! My brother is really too much! You’ve worked so hard to raise him, and this is how he treats you! Even a dog knows to wag its tail in gratitude. Besides, you’re only doing it for him and his wife! I tell you, you’ve raised a son for someone else, don’t expect him to take care of you in future! If you grow old and can’t walk, he probably won’t even glance at you!"
Grandma Wu’s brows quivered as Wu Jinjin spoke.
She was already over sixty, and it wasn’t long before she wouldn’t be able to walk. She was afraid Wu Jinshu would neglect her in the future.
Given the recent events, it was very likely that Wu Jinshu would indeed neglect her.
Wu Jinjin continued, "Mom, don’t worry, you still have a good daughter. If my brother won’t take care of you, I will in the future! Isn’t there still nineteen hundred yuan by your side? I think you should give me that money, just in case my brother and his wife trick you out of it! And that little western-style house, I don’t think you should give it to my brother anymore, give it to me instead. Our house is too small, and you can rest assured, I’ll give you the best room to live in, I’ll take good care of you."
"You see, I even scrape off a bit of meat from my own mouth to give to you, what has my brother given you? Not only does he give you nothing, but this time he’s also made such a huge fight with you!"
Grandma Wu was very tempted by what Wu Jinjin said.
