Old Lady Zhang's Rebirth: Going Mad! Severing Ties with Family! Becoming Incredibly Rich!

"What's wrong?"

"I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong, but it just feels off." Zhao Xueyi scratched his head. "I spoke to him in our hometown dialect earlier. He understands it, but he's not very good at speaking it."

"He said his grandparents came here as refugees from famine, so they don't speak our local dialect... According to Yu Cheng, he spent several years in the countryside in Guizhou and even learned the Guizhou dialect. He grew up in our city, so how could he not speak our city dialect?"

"Yu Cheng said he returned to the city in 82. He only took over his mother's job this year. He said he did temporary work in the city for the four years in between. When I asked him where he did it, he immediately changed the subject."

"Anyway, I don't think it's quite right."

He dared to say he was a woman.

What's the difference between this and pointing your finger at someone and cursing their mother?

Zhao Xueyi was furious, saying, "Xia Zhi even said his family was well-off. Well-off family, and she brought a bag of apples on her first visit? I don't know if she's stingy or just looking down on people."

"If she were stingy, she wouldn't have spent any money on Xia Zhi before marriage, let alone after marriage."

"Looking down on people is even worse! With Yu Chengzhang's pathetic state, if our family doesn't despise him, then let him go burn incense and pray to Buddha. Why does he have the right to look down on people?!"

Zhao Xueyi got angrier and angrier as he spoke, "Whoever peees yellow, wake him up and let him know why he's 26 and still can't get married."

Don't say it.

Zhao Xueyi is quite perceptive.

Yu Cheng is indeed not a local; his hometown is in Guizhou. He is not an only child; he has four younger siblings, and he is the eldest.

Yu Cheng's uncle was sent to the countryside in Guizhou. Two years ago, he returned to the city. As the eldest son who was the most valued in the family, Yu Cheng went to the city with his aunt and uncle.

The "mom" he was referring to was his aunt.

The house in Chengdong Street was bought by his aunt and uncle for their son, and has nothing to do with him.

That scumbag.

He's a complete fraud!

Zhang Guiying cursed angrily, "We should find someone to slap him awake, but remember to find someone who doesn't have diabetes to slap him."

Why?

"What if we let him get a taste of success?"

Zhao Xueyi paused for a second, then realized what Zhang Guiying had said, burst into laughter, and pounded the stove until tears welled up in his eyes.

Oh my god!

His mother's insults are getting increasingly scathing.

Zhang Guiying pushed him away, "Go away, go away, you're laughing like a kettle has come to life. Go outside and try to get more information out of him."

Zhao Xueyi could no longer laugh.

yard.

Zhao Xiazhi led Yu Cheng to familiarize himself with the courtyard, and Yu Cheng was finally able to openly look around.

The more I look at it, the more my heart flutters.

The Zhao family has so many houses!

Housing is scarce in the city. Some families squeeze into a single room allocated by their work unit, so crowded that there's barely room to step. Yet, families like the Zhao family, with many children, are able to provide each child with their own room.

"Xia Zhi, don't you have four older brothers? Where are the other three?" The new son-in-law has come to visit, and none of his other three brothers have shown up. They really don't value him.

"My eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother have moved out."

Zhao Xiazhi wasn't completely naive; she knew that family scandals shouldn't be aired in public. She didn't mention that her three older brothers had been kicked out by their parents. She only said that they all had jobs outside and it was inconvenient for them to live at home, so they all moved out.

Yu Cheng's heart stirred upon hearing this.

Moving out is a good idea.

It would be even better if Zhao Xueyi moved out as well, so that after he and Xia Zhi got married, he could move into the Zhao family home under the pretext of taking care of the two elderly people.

Xia Zhi's older brothers are all capable.

He and Zhao Xiazhi took the initiative to take care of their parents. How could her brothers possibly compete with her for the house?

After the old couple passes away.

Doesn't this house belong to him?

Then he can bring his parents and younger siblings to the city, and the whole family will no longer have to get up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs to work, and still not have enough to eat.

Yu Cheng became happier and happier as he thought about it.

At lunchtime, seeing the table full of dishes, Yu Cheng silently took a breath.

Braised pork belly, steamed spare ribs with glutinous rice, braised beef, braised chicken legs, boiled shrimp, stewed chicken... The only vegetarian dish was a cold cucumber salad.

waste.

Such a waste.

If he gives all this meat to his parents, they could feed the whole family in all sorts of different ways for two months.

Yu Cheng was heartbroken.

The Zhao family really doesn't know how to manage their money.

They say a daughter is like her mother. Once he marries Xia Zhi, he'll definitely teach her how to be thrifty and manage a household well.

"Yu Cheng, what are you standing there for? Sit down and eat."

"Why."

Zhang Guiying greeted them, "Don't be shy, make yourself at home."

"Thank you, Auntie."

Yu Cheng originally intended to be reserved, but after tasting a bite of braised pork, the aroma almost brought tears to his eyes.

good to eat!

too delicious!

It's no exaggeration to say that he had never eaten such delicious meat in his entire life.

Pretense can't compete with instinct. Yu Cheng couldn't control himself at all, wolfing down his food with grease dripping from his mouth.

Zhao Xueyi was stunned.

This guy must be a reincarnated starving ghost.

Zhao Xiazhi also felt ashamed and kicked Yu Cheng hard under the table.

Yu Cheng then realized that everyone in the Zhao family was looking at him. His face flushed red, and he quickly put down his chopsticks. "Auntie, your cooking is so delicious, I couldn't resist..."

Zhang Guiying was eager for him to reveal his true nature, so she said politely, "It's alright, food is meant to be eaten, so please eat."

They were being very polite.

But he couldn't take it seriously.

Yu Cheng restrained himself and slowed down the speed at which he picked up food. "Auntie, there's something else I'd like to discuss with you and Uncle."

"I've known Xia Zhi for more than half a year and we've been dating for more than three months. My parents are very satisfied with Xia Zhi. I'm not young anymore, and my parents want me and Xia Zhi to get married as soon as possible."

"My mom is retired now and wants to help us take care of the kids while she's still young, to ease our burden."

Zhang Guiying instantly flew into a rage.

You bastard.

They're really pushing their luck!

Zhang Guiying glanced at Zhao Xiazhi, seeing her head bowed and face flushed, which only fueled her anger. She slammed down her chopsticks and her expression suddenly changed. "Are you saying you're here today to propose marriage?"

Yu Cheng was a little flustered, not knowing why Zhang Guiying had become so famous. "Auntie, my parents just want me to get married soon..."

"Shut up!"

Zhang Guiying slammed her hand on the table and stood up, cursing, "Who comes here to propose marriage with just a bag of apples? Are you looking down on Zhao Xiazhi, or on my whole family?"

"Your parents want it? Just because your parents want it, we have to marry our daughter off to them? What? I raised this daughter, and I can't make that decision? I should just listen to your parents?"

Zhao Xiazhi was startled, first stunned, then fell into deep thought.

Yu Chengfan quickly put down his chopsticks and stood up to explain, "No, Auntie, I was young and ignorant and said the wrong thing. I didn't come here today to propose marriage. I just wanted to say that you have raised Xia Zhi very well, and our whole family likes her very much."

She further explained, "Our whole family values ​​Xia Zhi very much. We prepare everything that other women would need for their weddings."

"Okay, Uncle and Aunt, please choose a time, and I'll have my parents come with me to our house to formally propose marriage. We'll make sure Xiazhi has all the proper pomp and circumstance; she'll definitely not be treated any worse than anyone else!"
