Rebirth in the 80s: Mrs. Li Is Still Setting Rules

In her previous life, old Mrs. Li wished she could pluck out her heart and liver to make soup for her children, yet in her old age, she faced indifference and evasion. Her children all kept their d...

Chapter 228 Daily Life (7)

As soon as I approached the window of the shabby house, I heard the mother and son muttering in low voices inside.

Gao Zhiqiang, with one foot on the edge of his stool, was slurring his porridge and mumbling, "Mom, aren't we rich at home? Why are we still eating this stuff?"

"Oh, the money, Mom has saved it all. If I keep going like this, I'll be able to save enough for your betrothal gift in less than three months!

When the time comes, I'll ask matchmaker Wang to find you a guy with a big butt who's good at giving birth!

"Oh! No rush!" Gao Zhiqiang was not in a hurry. He just wanted Lin Yaqin to make more money.

But when the old woman heard this, she thought Gao Zhiqiang was really planning to marry that bitch Lin Yaqin, and she quickly said, "Son, don't be confused!"

"Oh! What are you thinking?" Gao Zhiqiang slammed his bowl on the table. "How could I be interested in that kind of trash? She's our family's money-making animal!"

"Then why are you still..." Gao's mother leaned closer in confusion.

"Mom, you're really getting old and confused!" Gao Zhiqiang said with a shrewd and calculating tone, "There are always women. If you don't keep the chickens that make money hanging around, what will you do if they run away?"

Lin Yaqin had always wanted to get married with him so that she could stay in Beijing with a legitimate reason. However, he had brought her to Beijing in the first place because he thought she could have a child, so he had a little idea of ​​getting married with her.

As for now, she has gone out to make money. How could Gao Zhiqiang still marry such a dirty thing!

But if I don’t find something to keep her hanging, she will become disobedient and that will be so troublesome!

"This is a cash cow! Did you keep her household registration card safe? Don't let this goose that lays golden eggs fly away!"

Gao's mother patted the kang mat proudly and said, "Don't worry! Mom has stuffed it into the crack in the wall behind the old nanmu box.

Wrap it tightly with oil paper! I guarantee that even gods won't be able to find it!

She suddenly lowered her voice and said, "When we make enough money, we'll just kill this bastard!"

The mother and son whispered something behind her, but Lin Yaqin could no longer hear what they were saying. She only felt the blood in her body run cold.

After she came to this family, her household registration booklet was taken away, and Gao Zhiqiang even took her household registration paper and tore it up in front of her!

In order to avoid being caught as a vagrant, fined and deported, she had no choice but to follow the Gao mother and son wholeheartedly and let the two of them manipulate them at will.

In fact, she had already thought about it!

If she could really get married with Gao Zhiqiang, even without a household registration certificate, she would have a legitimate identity to stay in Beijing.

With her skills, she can definitely make a great comeback.

It was because he had no identity and wanted to make quick money and please Gao Zhiqiang that he was willing to do "business"!

But now I know that the household registration booklet was not destroyed at all! It was just hidden!

Then she can plan a lot!

Lin Yaqin quietly left the corner of the room and continued to scrub the basin of dirty clothes.

She hung out the clothes, cleaned the house, and kept all the housework in order as usual.

Days passed by, she had to do housework during the day and was forced to make money at night. She had become numb to such a life. What was so difficult about just holding on a little longer?

Ever since I found out that my household registration booklet is still there, I feel more hopeful and life doesn’t seem so difficult anymore!

But while working, I spent a little more time paying attention to the old woman's daily routine.

What annoyed her the most now was that this old witch was not a popular person.

Staying in the shabby house every day, cursing from morning to night!

As soon as he saw Lin Yaqin taking a break, he scolded her for being lazy and was on guard against her like a thief.

She also saw that the rice and oil in the house were all kept in that broken box, and she would sneakily check the old elm box every day.

As for the more important things like money, she hid them behind the elm box. The old woman somehow dug out a brick, hid the things inside, and then blocked it with the brick!

This happened just two days ago. There was no rice at home, and the old lady was seen by her when she was taking money!

As for Gao Zhiqiang, he was nowhere to be seen all day long. He was either sleeping at home until noon or going out to drink and gamble.

Lin Yaqin waited for several days but couldn't find an opportunity to take action!

I couldn’t find my household registration book or my money!

She didn't know if the old man was helping her. She couldn't believe that the opportunity came so unexpectedly.

On the low wooden table, there was a dish of black pickled vegetables and a few sore-smelling steamed buns. The old woman was chewing the buns with the pickled vegetables, cursing incoherently:

"What kind of pig food is this! The pickles are so choking, and the steamed bread makes my throat ache! What's the use of you! You can't even cook a meal!"

Lin Yaqin ate silently, her head almost buried in the bowl.

Suddenly, there was a "bang" and Gao Zhiqiang kicked the door open and walked in swaggeringly.

"Qiangzi is back!"

Gao Zhiqiang squinted his eyes, glanced at the food on the table, and said with disdain: "Is this for pigs? They eat this pig food every day?"

As he said this, he pulled out a thick stack of banknotes from his pocket and slammed it on the table. "Mom! Look at this! Is your son capable?"

The old woman's eyes suddenly widened, and the steamed bread in her hand fell onto the table with a "click".

"Oh my god!" The old woman rushed forward, grabbed the banknotes with trembling hands, and counted them one by one with saliva, "So much money! I have never seen so much money!

Son, are you robbing a bank?

"Bah! What unlucky words are you saying!" Gao Zhiqiang crossed his legs proudly, and the worn leather shoes on his feet were about to poke into the plate of pickles!

"Last night at the card table, those Southern guys with lots of money and bad luck made your son lose everything! That's exactly the amount!" He held up three fingers and shook them proudly.
