Rebirth in the 80s: Old Mrs. Tao, Abandoned Son, Dotes on Daughter to Become the Richest Woman

Old Mrs. Tao was cowardly and troublesome. After her husband died in middle age, she raised three ungrateful sons, helping them get married and have children. In her old age, no one took care of he...

Chapter 41 Mother-in-law's Mother-in-law

"Chunli, did you hear that? Your grandma doesn't want to buy you anything. Study hard in the future, and when you earn money, be sure to take good care of your aunt and your parents." Tao Ying didn't spoil Zhou Daya at all.

The old lady just loves doing annoying things.

“Be filial to your grandfather,” Old Master Wang added from the side.

"You old geezer, are you trying to poison my mind?" Zhou Daya didn't dare to say anything to Tao Ying, but she wouldn't tolerate Old Master Wang either.

Grandpa Wang didn't reply, pretending not to hear.

"So you're not being filial to me? I've had the worst luck in my life..."

"Mom, what do you want to eat tonight?" Tao Ying interrupted the magic spell the moment the old lady opened her mouth.

"Anything is fine with me, you decide." Zhou Daya immediately composed herself and stopped cursing the Wang family's ancestors.

"It's quite hot today, let's have some mixed noodles, how about noodles with egg sauce?" Thinking that the old lady had eaten pig's trotters for lunch, it wouldn't be good for her to eat something too greasy for dinner.

"Okay, I'll do as you say." The old lady immediately agreed.

When Tao Ying got home, she went back to her room and started writing her business plan.

After retiring, Tao Ying wants to travel all over the country, especially to Beijing and the south.

Without understanding the market, it's impossible to determine a development path.

Wang Chunli and the old lady sorted out the fabric together. After they decided on the design of the clothes, Zhou Daya went to sit by the door, while Wang Chunli began to cut.

Zhou Daya, holding a palm-leaf fan, sat on a recliner under the big willow tree, happily thinking about when Li Caixia would come knocking on her door. She thought that if she behaved well, she could get her eldest son's wife to take the recliner back to her.

Then I'll have the second son carry me to the village entrance every day, wearing the new clothes and shoes that the eldest son's wife bought for him, which will make those old men and women furious.

Just thinking about it makes me feel that life is wonderful.

"Grandma~" Zhao Shuangfeng arrived and saw this scene of Zhou Daya. She thought that Zhou Daya had been kicked out by her mother-in-law. She had heard Wang Baojun say before that her mother-in-law and grandmother did not get along.

Suddenly, I felt an opportunity had come. If I teamed up with my mother-in-law's mother-in-law, let's see what that old hag can do now.

"Are you trying to kill me? You scared the hell out of me!" Zhou Daya thought that if she weren't so physically weak, she would have been startled by Zhao Shuangfeng.

"Grandma, did my mother-in-law bully you?" Zhao Shuangfeng was also startled by the old lady. Who would have thought that this little old lady was so energetic?

"What's wrong?" Zhou Daya rolled her eyes and glanced at Zhao Shuangfeng out of the corner of her eye.

"I was just saying, how could my mother-in-law be like this? It's one thing for her to bully me, but how could she bully you? You're her mother-in-law, her elder." Zhao Shuangfeng's eyes lit up as she thought, "The old lady must hate Tao Ying to death."

“Your mother-in-law is such a wicked person, and she has such a sharp tongue. I’m an old lady who’s almost in my grave, and she bullies me every day. Granddaughter-in-law, why don’t you come and stay at my house? I won’t bring your old man with me. I feel like I’ll be closer to you the moment I see you. I’m sure you’re not as unfilial as your mother-in-law.” Zhou Daya looked at Zhao Shuangfeng with hopeful eyes.

"That won't do, Grandma. My house is too small to accommodate everyone." Zhao Shuangfeng was taken aback and quickly refused.

“I’m just an old lady who’s about to die, how much space do I need? You and Baojun can just sleep on the floor when the time comes. Don’t worry, Grandma is easy to take care of, just two meals of meat a day will do,” Zhou Daya said cheerfully.

"You still want to eat meat?!" Zhao Shuangfeng looked at Zhou Daya in disbelief. How could this old lady be so shameless? She still dared to ask for meat, and even twice a day. She must be out of her mind.

“Granddaughter-in-law, I just wanted to eat some meat, I didn’t say I was going to kill anyone, why are you so agitated?” Zhou Daya asked, glaring at Zhao Shuangfeng.

"Grandma, where would I get that much money?" Zhao Shuangfeng realized she was getting emotional, mainly because things hadn't been going well for her lately.

She didn't have a penny to her name, her parents scolded her every day, and Wang Baojun ignored her. Wang Baojun was eating in the canteen every day and didn't care whether she lived or died. Zhao Shuangfeng could only cook some cornmeal porridge, rice porridge, or noodles every day. These were the family's leftover food, and there wasn't much of it. The main problem was that she could only add a little salt each time. She didn't even have money to buy vegetables.

"No money? No money? What are you doing here? Do you think I'm all free? Go away and play somewhere else." Zhou Daya immediately ignored Zhao Shuangfeng.

"Grandma, I'm carrying the eldest grandson of your Wang family in my belly. My mother-in-law has taken all the money in my family. I haven't eaten for days. It's okay if I don't eat, but the baby can't go without food." Zhao Shuangfeng cried as she spoke.

"You're kidding me. What good people could the Wang family have? And what good is a grandson? Am I the Empress Dowager who has a throne left for him, or a fortune waiting for him to inherit? I'm just a famine-stricken old man with my life on my hands, and even that might not be long enough to see him. Go away and stay somewhere cool." Zhou Daya said, glaring at him unhappily.

"Grandma, this child's surname is Wang." Zhao Shuangfeng said again, unwilling to give up. Zhao Shuangfeng was about to collapse. Why were these two old ladies different from others? If it were others, they would treat her like royalty.

“My goodness, whatever surname your child wants is fine with me. Anyway, he can’t be surnamed Zhou. Why don’t you two take the surname Tao? Your husband should have been surnamed Tao, but his in-laws disliked him and wouldn’t let him have that surname. Otherwise, he could take the surname Zhao with you.” Zhou Daya kindly suggested.

Actually, when Wang Baojun was born, Wang Dazhu wanted him to take the surname Tao. However, Tao Ying's parents were afraid that Wang Dazhu and Wang Baojun would be ashamed in the future, so they insisted on not doing so.

Wang Dazhu and Grandpa Wang were very grateful, but Zhou Daya didn't take it to heart at all.

Zhao Shuangfeng was so angry that she trembled and glared at Zhou Daya.

Zhou Daya wasn't scared at all. She closed her eyes and felt very comfortable. She even fell asleep without realizing it.

Meanwhile, things weren't peaceful on Wang Baomin's side either.

Li Caixia waited for several days but Wang Baomin didn't come to see her, so she couldn't help but get impatient. She put on her newly bought dress and leather shoes and went to find Wang Baomin.

Li Caixia frequently visited Wang Baomin, so everyone at the supply and marketing cooperative knew about it.

"Baomin, why haven't you come to see me for days? I'm angry." Li Caixia stomped her foot lightly when she saw Wang Baomin, looking at him unhappily.

“Baomin, we men should be more considerate of women, then life will be more comfortable,” Wang Baomin’s master advised him.

“Li Caixia, didn’t we break up? My mother’s job can’t be given to your younger brother, and my family can’t afford the 500 yuan dowry or the three turns and one ring.” Wang Baomin ignored Li Caixia’s little gestures and looked at her very seriously as he spoke.

In fact, when Li Baomin saw the dress and leather shoes Li Caixia was wearing, he had an urge to make Li Caixia pay back the money.
