Old Lady Zhang's Rebirth: Going Mad! Severing Ties with Family! Becoming Incredibly Rich!
Chapter 18 One plays the good cop, one plays the bad cop
When things get chaotic outside.
Song Mingyu was talking to her mother inside the house.
Hearing the commotion outside, Song Mingyu initially didn't suspect anything, until the noise grew louder and louder. Li Shufen realized something was wrong, "What's going on outside? I heard someone calling your name?"
Song Mingyu heard this too, and stood up, saying, "I'll go out and take a look."
"Be careful, your dad and brother are both out. What if someone comes to cause trouble?"
"It's alright, it's broad daylight, and the area is full of my dad's colleagues and their families from the winery. Who would dare to cause trouble?"
Li Shufen thought about it and agreed, so she let her go.
They went outside.
The crying and commotion outside became even more pronounced.
The courtyard gate was pounded on loudly, accompanied by a woman's angry shouts. Song Mingyu's heart skipped a beat, but then she remembered that she had never provoked a married man before, and she calmed down.
"Who is it!"
Song Mingyu opened the courtyard gate and was a little confused when she saw Zhang Xia standing outside looking fierce. "Who are you? Why are you knocking on my door?"
"..."
The moment Zhang Xia saw Song Mingyu, her breathing slowed down.
This was the first time she had met Song Mingyu, and at first glance she understood why Zhao Jinzhong was so devoted to her.
nice!
So beautiful.
Zhang Xia had never seen such a beautiful person before.
That's not quite right. All of Zhao's daughters are beautiful, especially Zhao Qiuzhi, who is as pretty as a flower. But Zhao Qiuzhi's beauty is different from Song Mingyu's.
Zhang Xia, with limited education, couldn't articulate exactly what was different.
All she knew was that...
Looking at Song Mingyu, she felt a little inferior and subconsciously withdrew her rough hands.
Hearing that Zhang Xia hadn't made a sound for a long time, Zhang Guiying cursed under her breath and started wailing again, "I don't want to live anymore, don't stop me, just let me die."
Zhang Xia slapped her thigh.
I almost forgot about the important matter.
No matter how pretty she is, her money is more important. Zhang Xia hugged Zhang Guiying and immediately got into character, saying, "Don't you recognize me? Don't you recognize my mother?"
Only then did Song Mingyu notice Zhang Guiying crying by the door. Seeing the neighbors gathered around, Song Mingyu's eyelids twitched, and she had a bad feeling. "I don't know you. Go away, go away, you should leave now."
He was about to close the courtyard gate when he said that.
Zhang Xia wasn't about to let her have her way. She kicked the door open and, ignoring Song Mingyu's struggles, forcibly dragged her out of the yard. "You heartless wretch, you don't even recognize your future mother-in-law!"
She then tearfully told her neighbors, "I am Song Mingyu's boyfriend's sister-in-law."
He then pointed to Zhang Guiying, "This is my mother-in-law."
Then, when talking about the whole story, he said, "My fourth son, Zhao Jinzhong, has been dating Song Mingyu for over a year. My parents-in-law have worked hard to raise their children and are hoping that each of them will get married and start a family as soon as possible."
"I heard that Lao Si is looking for a girlfriend. My mom was so happy that she couldn't sleep for several nights. Although we haven't made an engagement yet, my family has never skimped on the gifts and etiquette we should have prepared for holidays."
"But who knew the Song family would be so shameless? They see how generous my family is and we've never reciprocated. We don't care about a single bit of food or drink from them, but the Song family, seeing how good-natured my family is, have taken advantage of our kindness and started causing trouble!"
"A few days ago, Song Mingyu's mother broke her leg and was hospitalized. Li Shufen, unwilling to let her own children and husbands do anything, actually made my mother-in-law go to the hospital to take care of her!"
The neighbors were shocked.
Should your future mother-in-law serve your biological mother?
The Song family usually looks respectable, so how could they do something so rude?
Zhang Xia continued to sob, "My mother-in-law felt sorry for her son. She thought that her fourth son and Song Mingyu had been dating for more than a year and were about to get married. She was afraid that this matter would cause them to break up, so she took leave to go to the hospital to take care of her."
Although she didn't know what happened at the hospital, it didn't affect Zhang Xia's performance. "Who knew that Li Shufen was completely inhuman, deliberately tormenting my mother-in-law. Making her serve tea and water was one thing, but she also made her clean up after her excrement and urine."
"Li Shufen only broke one leg, she's not crippled. She's treating my mother-in-law like this on purpose."
"My mother-in-law isn't afraid of hardship or fatigue, but she's a person with dignity! She took care of Li Shufen in the hospital for two days, and the Song family didn't give her a kind look the entire time. My poor mother-in-law spent money and effort taking care of the patient, and she didn't even get any appreciation. How can they bully people like this!"
"Ugh!"
Zhang Guiying let out a trapped animal-like whimper, lying on the ground looking utterly pitiful.
awful!
That's horrible!
The onlookers condemned Song Mingyu with their eyes.
Song Mingyu blushed and said, "You're talking nonsense! My mother didn't ask your mother to take care of her. It was Zhao Jinzhong who told her to send her mother to take care of my mother. My mother didn't mistreat her... Uncle and Aunt, don't listen to their nonsense."
Zhang Xia angrily accused, "I knew you wouldn't admit it! If anyone doesn't believe me, they can go to the orthopedic ward of the hospital and ask around to see if Li Shufen treated my mother-in-law like this."
Zhang Xia didn't know Li Shufen.
But doesn't she understand Zhang Guiying?
Zhang Guiying was willing to do anything for her children, but after taking care of Li Shufen in the hospital for two days, no matter how much Zhao Jinzhong begged her, she refused to go back to the hospital.
It must be Li Shufen causing trouble.
Seeing that Song Mingyu was speechless, Zhang Xia continued to scold, "My mother-in-law has been swallowing all these grievances, but the Song family is utterly wicked. They demanded a dowry of five thousand yuan and three large items before they would agree to a marriage alliance with our family. Five thousand yuan in dowry and three large items! In this day and age, who asks for so much when marrying off their daughter?"
Hey!
The neighborhood erupted in uproar.
Five thousand in betrothal gifts, plus three major items?
Is this about money? This is about lives!
Song Mingyu yelled at the top of her lungs, "When did I ask for a dowry of 5,000? I want a dowry of 2,000 and three large gifts."
The words fell.
Seeing everyone casting accusing glances at her, Song Mingyu realized she had been tricked, and it was too late. Her face instantly turned bright red.
Zhang Xia did it on purpose.
He deliberately inflated the amount, just waiting for her to admit that she wanted a dowry of two thousand and three large items.
Despicable and shameless!
Zhang Xia was indeed doing it on purpose. After Song Mingyu admitted it, she immediately accused her, "Everyone heard it, right? Song Mingyu admitted that she asked for two thousand yuan in betrothal gifts and three large items. These items add up to at least five thousand yuan."
"My family is just an ordinary family. My parents-in-law have seven children, four of whom are still unmarried. They scrimped and saved to raise all seven of them. It was already very difficult for them. Where would they get so much money?"
As she spoke, she slapped her thigh and began to cry, "Heavens above, what kind of decent family would ask for such a large dowry? Even if my in-laws strangled themselves and didn't eat or drink, they couldn't save up this much money. The Song family's demands are practically forcing my in-laws to die!"
Zhang Guiying lay on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.
Zhang Guiying wore a drab gray top and black pants; she was so thin she barely had any flesh on her body, and her clothes could barely stay on. It's 86 now; where in the city could you find someone so thin?
It's obvious at a glance that they're not having an easy time.
Song Mingyu had been dating that man's son for over a year, so it was impossible for her not to know his family situation. Knowing that his family was not well-off, she still made such a demanding request.
No wonder this woman wanted to hang herself.
This is forcing people to die.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, successfully aroused public outrage.
