Chapter 985: I owe your Xiao family
Old Mrs. Xiao was slapped dizzy by Zhang Guifen.
She really didn't expect that she had said so many insulting things to Zhang Guifen before, and Zhang Guifen hadn't laid a hand on her.
She didn't expect that when she showed weakness to her, she accidentally touched her reverse scale.
Although Zhang Guifen didn't have much education, she was indeed a filial daughter.
Back then, her mother was forced to commit suicide by drinking pesticide by her sister-in-law. After hearing the news, she rushed back from her husband’s family.
At that time, her mother was already terminally ill and beyond cure.
In the hospital, Zhang Guifen’s mother said very weakly that she wanted to go home, saying she was uncomfortable staying in the hospital.
Zhang Guifen knew that she knew she was going to die, and when she was dying, she was just thinking about saving some money for the family and not letting her continue to stay in the hospital for pointless treatment.
She wanted to take her mother back to her husband’s family to be filial for a few days and let her mother finish the last part of her life.
But her husband’s family strongly opposed it, especially her mother-in-law, who cursed at her on the phone, saying that if she dared to bring her mother back, she shouldn't even enter the house herself.
Her brother, who was afraid of his wife, didn't want his mother to return because he was afraid that it would be unlucky for his mother to die in his house.
In the end, Zhang Guifen could only take her mother back to their own old house that had been abandoned for many years.
In the old house, Zhang Guifen used warm water to wipe her mother’s body clean, changed her into clean clothes, and made her a bowl of egg noodles.
Her mother finished the noodles, held her hand, and said contentedly, "Good daughter, Mom will sleep for a while," and then she never woke up again.
That day, Zhang Guifen cried all her tears.
After her mother was buried, Zhang Guifen beat up her sister-in-law, and only then was she sent to the detention center.
It was precisely because of her filial piety that when she heard that Ma Lan was very unfilial to Old Mrs. Xiao, she felt sympathy for Old Mrs. Xiao and hatred for Ma Lan.
In general, this is a vulgar, sloppy, uneducated, but always respectful of her late mother and full of awe for human nature, a rural woman.
Although her temper is hot, she is not a bad person.
She can endure Old Mrs. Xiao’s insults, but she cannot tolerate even the slightest offense to her mother.
Old Mrs. Xiao just said that only by dying in a better room could she ensure a good rebirth in her next life, which made her think of her mother who died miserably in a dilapidated tile house.
She always felt that her mother, although poor and destitute all her life, was honest and kind.
It’s just that her fate was very bumpy, she never enjoyed happiness in her life, and in the end, she was forced to a dead end by her daughter-in-law.
She also felt that such a mother, even if she died in the most broken room in the world, heaven has eyes, and she would be reborn into a good family in her next life and enjoy happiness for a lifetime.
And Old Mrs. Xiao’s words just now not only denied her consistent firm belief but also blasphemed the holy and great image of her mother in her heart.
So, she couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Old Mrs. Xiao.
At this time, Old Mrs. Xiao covered her face and looked at Zhang Guifen with resentment.
Although she was very angry in her heart, at this moment, even if she had ten thousand guts, she wouldn't dare to lay a hand on Zhang Guifen.
Wu Donghai’s men said coldly at this time, "We came here this time under Mr. Wu’s order to clear out the assets in this villa. Mr. Wu’s meaning is that from now on, except for the hard decoration, and large furniture like beds and sofas, all other appliances, all valuable decorations, and the good wine stored in the basement must be cleared out, not leaving a single piece!"
When Old Mrs. Xiao heard this, she felt utterly desperate.
Originally, she was still counting on selling the appliances in the villa, especially the stock of wine in the basement, which could sell for at least a million, but she didn't expect that someone as rich as Wu Donghai would care about such small things, and before she was ready to sell, his people had already come!
Old Mrs. Xiao said with a bitter face, "Young men, you can take the appliances, but please leave the wine for us. After all, we like to drink a few cups occasionally..."
The leader sneered, "You can barely afford to eat, and you still have the leisure to drink? If you have that energy, you’d better study how to make money to survive!"
After saying that, he immediately said to his men, "Start moving! Don't leave any valuable small items!"
"Okay!"
Several men immediately agreed, and then began to search the villa.
They even brought flatbed carts specially used for moving, put all the valuable things on the carts, and pulled them out bit by bit.
Old Mrs. Xiao didn't dare to act rashly and could only watch as they kept moving things out of the villa, not only moving all the wine out but also taking down the TV on the wall.
What was even more excessive was that the kitchen utensils, pots, and tableware were all taken away.
Old Mrs. Xiao choked, "Young men, at least leave us the pots and pans for cooking..."
The man said coldly, "These are all German-imported kitchenware, one pot is worth tens of thousands. If I leave them for you, you’ll definitely sell them all in two days!"
Old Mrs. Xiao cried, "Even if I sell them, I can't sell the pots..."
The man said with disdain, "We don't care about that. If you want to cook, find a way to buy another pot yourself!"
After saying that, he checked every room again to make sure no valuable things were left, and then said to his men, "You guys move everything to the car first!"
Several men walked out of the door, and the man said to Zhang Guifen, "From now on, you guys just live here steadily. Mr. Wu has only one requirement for you, and that is that you absolutely cannot go to the neighbor Ms. Ma Lan’s house to find any trouble for their family. Otherwise, you will never be forgiven!"
When Zhang Guifen heard this, she nodded like a garlic clove and said, "Don't worry, I will absolutely not find trouble for Ma Lan! Finding trouble for Ma Lan before was all because of this ungrateful old woman, Old Mrs. Xiao, so there will definitely be no more in the future!"
The man was satisfied and said, "Alright, aren't you going to occupy that bedroom on the third floor? Go occupy it quickly, we’re leaving."
Zhang Guifen said excitedly, "Okay! I know! Take your time!"
After these people left, Old Mrs. Xiao sat on the ground and wailed, "Oh my, my life, why is it so miserable..."
Xiao Weiwei also cried and said, "Grandma, this Wu Donghai is too much, he’s clearly trying to play with us..."
Qian Hongyan said at this time, "Mr. Wu might not really want to play with us. Originally, he wanted to arrange a few helpers for our family, but your grandma offended them to death as soon as she came up. Now, not only are there no helpers, but there are three more enemies..."
Old Mrs. Xiao asked angrily, "Qian Hongyan, you unchaste bitch, how dare you point fingers at me!"
Qian Hongyan had long had enough of the old lady’s bossiness. Seeing the old lady getting angry with her, she was also furious and cursed, "You dead old woman, don't bully people too much! Do you really think you’re still the Old Mrs. Xiao from back then?! You’re penniless now, and you’re still pointing fingers at me here. Do I owe your Xiao family?!"
