Old Lady Zhang's Rebirth: Going Mad! Severing Ties with Family! Becoming Incredibly Rich!
Chapter 11 Treat minor illnesses, or die from major ones.
Only then did the whole family learn what had happened during the day.
Ignoring her surprise, Zhao Xiazhi chased her older brother and his wife away. After hearing about the accident at the steel plant, she turned pale with fright.
She tossed the clothes she was washing into the basin, rushed over to check on Zhao Binghe, her voice trembling, "Dad, how are you? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Zhao Binghe felt a warmth in his heart. His daughter was the most considerate. He turned around and let Zhao Xiazhi check him over. "It's nothing, it's nothing. Luckily, your mother came to the factory to find me. I wasn't in the workshop when the accident happened."
Only after confirming that he had no injuries did Zhao Xiazhi feel relieved.
Zhao Xueyi and Zhao Qiuzhi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Only Zhao Jinzhong had a different focus than the others: "Mom, were you rushing off to the steel mill this morning? Didn't you go to the hospital?"
Zhao Jinzhong grew anxious. "Mom, why didn't you tell me you weren't going to the hospital? If you don't go, I have to. If neither of us shows up, what will Mingyu and her parents think?"
Zhang Guiying grabbed a stool and threw it at him, angrily cursing, "You little beast, I'm going to the hospital. Your father is already dead."
"..."
Clang!
The bench wall shattered into pieces in an instant.
Zhao Jinzhong jumped back in two steps, completely terrified. The force was incredible; was this for real?
Seeing that Zhang Guiying looked like she was about to hit someone at any moment, Zhao Jinzhong shrank back and didn't dare to complain.
But remembering Song Mingyu's temper, he couldn't stay at home any longer. He hurriedly went inside, put on a coat, grabbed his bicycle, and ran out. "I'm going to the hospital. I won't be eating at home tonight."
As soon as he finished speaking, he had already gotten on his bicycle and ridden away.
You bastard!
Those few worn-out shoes I hit this morning weren't enough!
Zhao Chengxin spent the whole day at the hospital running errands for the leaders and was starving.
Seeing that the food was on the table, he went inside, grabbed a steamed bun, picked up a piece of vegetables, and stuffed it into his mouth. As soon as the vegetables entered his mouth, he almost spat them out, but remembering how precious food was, he forced himself to swallow them.
"Mom, did you kill the salt seller today? This dish is so salty!"
Zhang Xia glared at her, "I cooked the dishes."
Zhao Chengxin took a look.
The large pot of potatoes, eggplant, and green beans was indeed a dish made in her wife's hometown.
They immediately stopped being picky.
Zhang Guiying, not wanting to make things difficult for herself, pulled Zhao Binghe to sit down for a meal. She took a bite of the dish, spat it out, and said, "The salt is really good; it even tastes like vegetables."
"..."
That was really filthy.
Zhang Xia retorted, "Mom, I've already told you my cooking isn't as good as yours, but you still insist I cook."
"Just because I'm a good cook doesn't mean I'm obligated to serve you!"
Zhang Guiying threw down her chopsticks and immediately launched into a tirade, "Which girl from the countryside can't cook? You've cooked the food like this and you still have the nerve to complain?"
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You deliberately made it taste bad, thinking that next time I'll be too stingy with food and won't let you cook. You heartless bastard, you only use your cunning on me, but you're never this capable with anyone else!"
The air pressure in the main room dropped instantly.
The siblings sat down and tasted the food.
Zhao Xiazhi quickly ate the vegetables with the steamed bun and then gulped down a large glass of water.
Zhao Qiuzhi sniffed it but didn't touch it at all. Zhao Xueyi reacted the same way as Zhang Guiying, spitting it out with a "Pui!" "My god! Sister-in-law, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Zhang Xia stubbornly denied it, saying, "Who did it on purpose? My hand slipped and I accidentally put in too much salt."
Zhang Guiying scolded, "I think you did it on purpose, it was an accident."
Zhang Guiying wouldn't tolerate it at all. "Go and redo it. For every ounce of food wasted, you'll have to pay me back for it tomorrow. We'll eat again when it's ready to eat!"
He then pushed the large basin on the table in front of Zhao Chengxin and Da Bao and Xiao Bao, saying, "You are the family responsible for finishing this basin. You are not allowed to eat anything fresh if you can't finish it."
Da Bao and Xiao Bao were so frightened that they burst into tears.
Zhang Xia immediately became agitated upon hearing this, "How can children eat such salty food? Mom, Da Bao and Xiao Bao are your own grandsons, how can you treat them like this!"
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings; I'll enjoy my blessings even if my grandson dies from overeating."
Zhang Xia almost choked on her breath. "Mom, can't you change your temper? It's so bad!"
"Can't you just be more tolerant if you have a good temper?"
"..."
Zhang Xia, unable to bear it any longer, said, "Mom, aren't you afraid of breaking our hearts with your harsh words? Won't you be left without anyone to care for you when you're old and sick?"
They weren't mean in their past life.
It didn't end well either.
Zhang Guiying recalled the short videos of people arguing that she had watched in her past life, and put them into practice: "Treat minor illnesses, and die from major illnesses."
"What will you do if no one waits on you?"
"What should we do? We should handle it with great fanfare and make it a grand affair."
"..."
Zhang Xia was driven to the brink of madness by his stubbornness.
Zhang Xia went to the kitchen in a huff, but this time she didn't dare to play any tricks and obediently made a stir-fried eggplant and a stir-fried green bean dish.
Zhang Guiying took a bite.
The saltiness is just right.
Although it wasn't very tasty, it wasn't unpalatable either.
But she still had a sharp tongue and criticized, "Even vegetarians can't stand the blandness in their mouths. I can say something more savory than this."
Zhang Xia, "..."
She endures!
Knowing that Zhang Guiying felt sorry for the child, after dinner Zhang Xia deliberately shouted at Zhao Chengxin to wash the dishes. Zhao Chengxin dawdled and waited for Zhang Guiying to rescue him from his predicament.
Zhang Guiying knew exactly what was going on. She kicked Zhao Chengxin in the backside and said, "Are you a tortoise? Slowing down like that. Didn't you hear your wife calling you to wash the dishes?"
Zhao Chengxin slammed onto the table, his chest hitting the edge, wincing in pain.
This time, Zhang Xia felt sorry for Zhao Chengxin. She glared at Zhang Guiying, supporting Zhao Chengxin, and said, "Mom, why did you kick my husband? The whole family depends on him to earn money and support us! What if you hurt him!"
"Are you fucking a dog? Your man's disobedient, I'm here to teach him a lesson, and instead of thanking me, you're baring your teeth at me! Don't you know what's good for you?!"
Zhang Xia, "..."
Unable to out-argue Zhang Guiying, Zhang Xia was defeated once again.
Furious, she slunk away the dishes and went to the kitchen. Zhao Chengxin quickly followed her. Once inside the kitchen, Zhao Chengxin pushed Zhang Xia aside and said, "Don't move, I'll wash them, I'll wash them."
He glanced outside furtively and, finding no one there, whispered to Zhang Xia, "My mother is notoriously shrewish; everyone within a ten-mile radius knows her. It's normal that you can't beat her; don't be angry."
Zhang Xia threw down the rag and angrily cursed, "What 'shrew'? I think she's just a shrew! Only your dad in the whole family can put up with her!"
Startled, Zhao Chengxin quickly covered her mouth, "Keep your voice down! Mom even kicked the eldest son and his wife out today, do you want to leave too? The eldest son and his wife both earn money, they can make a living anywhere, but we are different."
"I'm the only one in my family of four who earns money. Everything has gone up in price this year. If we get kicked out, just renting a place outside will cost more than ten yuan a month."
"If you really anger Mom, she'll hold us accountable too. Do you have the money to pay her back?"
Zhang Xia shut up angrily.
She endures!
Zhang Guiying will retire in a little over a year.
Once she takes over the job at Zhang Guiying's cotton mill, let's see how she settles the score with the old woman!
