Chapter 178 An Unexpected Encounter with the 'Former Mother-in-Law'



"you."

Old Mrs. He felt like she was going to vomit.

I've never seen such a troublesome brat!

They won't give me money, and they won't let me buy them clothes.

Let's just kill her.

Mrs. Sheng was trying not to laugh.

I never expected my daughter to be so good at dealing with such a difficult old woman.

It seems her daughter didn't suffer any losses here, so she can rest assured.

Just then, He Yushen returned.

He came in with a loud voice, "Honey, I've bought the things."

They brought in bags and packages.

A string of children followed behind.

There were children from the He family and children from the village.

He Yushen generously gave apples and chicken cakes to all the children in the village.

The children were very happy when they took it home.

He Yushen also gave chicken cakes to the elderly people in the village, and everyone praised him for his thoughtfulness.

When Grandma He saw that a large bag of sponge cakes had been divided up, she was heartbroken.

"Alright, alright, stop taking it."

That's all money.

But the children were much faster than her, running off with sponge cakes and candies.

Seeing that the entire large bag of items had been divided up, Old Mrs. He was furious.

"You spendthrift, you're going to drive me crazy!"

He Yushen looked innocent and said, "It's just some cake. What's wrong with sharing some with everyone?"

“When I was a child, the old women in the village would give me something to eat when they saw that I was so thin and pale from hunger. It was only right for me to give them some steamed egg cake.”

Old Mrs. He poked his face with her finger, "You only remember others, what about me?"

"I even raised you."

The sponge cake wasn't given to him first; he only gave it to outsiders.

He Yushen took out another copy for her.

He even made a sarcastic remark to her, "You're so stingy. You never reciprocated when you ate other people's food. I'm the generous one; I even knew to buy you a serving."

Looking at the small square of chicken cake, Old Mrs. He became even angrier.

"You give other people such a big package, but I only get this little bit?"

He Yushen: "You're the one who said you don't like cake."

When he was a child, he craved the chicken cake used for New Year's sacrifices, but his mother said that it had to be returned to the shop owner.

She also said she didn't like the food, so she sold it all and used the money to buy them food.

But he knew that his brothers had eaten all those sponge cakes.

I never expected that he would still remember after all these years.

It seems it's not that she doesn't care, she just wants to forget so she can feel better.

Old Mrs. He didn't expect him to hold a grudge like that, and she was so angry that she couldn't speak.

Sheng Yueqing found it amusing to watch from the side.

Every time she had to outwit and outmaneuver the He family, it was more exciting than watching TV.

She stepped forward to persuade her, "Alright, stop arguing. I just gave Mom the money I was supposed to give her. We'll have dinner together tonight, but I have to go back tomorrow."

When Old Mrs. He heard about food, she couldn't bear to give them any.

I was just about to say that there was no food at home.

He Yushen said, "Mom, we've already given you money as a token of our filial piety, you won't refuse to give us a single meal, will you?"

If word got out, what a heartless mother it would be to not feed her child.

Old Mrs. He was furious. "You have money to buy food, yet you're still eyeing my food?"

He Yushen said, "I'm thinking of you."

Old Mrs. He stood there, frozen, and looked at her daughters-in-law.

The daughters-in-law turned their heads away, unwilling to agree.

They hadn't received any benefits to begin with, so it was impossible for them to provide food as well.

There was a moment of silence.

Mrs. Sheng was speechless.

I never expected He Yushen's family to be of this kind.

No wonder my daughter doesn't like to come back.

Seeing that they were not speaking, He Yushen looked out the window and saw that they were all spectators.

She sighed, "Alright, I know you guys are stingy, I know you're not nice to me, I brought my own food back."

As she spoke, she went to the door to get the takeout food she had brought back.

There's enough food for a whole table of people.

He Yushen prepared a clean boxed lunch for Mrs. Sheng first.

Although Mrs. Sheng didn't want to eat, she had to go back soon, so she ate a few bites out of politeness.

Sheng Yueqing wasn't picky and ate some boxed lunch and meat soup.

He Yushen ate all the food she couldn't finish.

The rest was placed on the table for Old Mrs. He and her sisters-in-law to eat.

For the first time, Old Mrs. He and her sisters-in-law felt ashamed.

Especially since people outside the window are watching.

They wanted to eat, but with everyone in the village watching, they were too embarrassed to touch their chopsticks.

Since He Yushen hadn't invited them to eat, they naturally felt awkward asking.

The kids at home wolfed down their food, grabbing it with their hands.

This is food from a restaurant in the city.

They usually eat corn in the countryside, so it's a rare treat to have such fragrant rice and meat dishes, so naturally they want to eat more.

Several children even got into a fight over the meat.

Because the adults in the five families were not on good terms, the children naturally fought with each other.

Seeing that things were about to get chaotic again, He Yushen said, "Alright, there's no place for us to sleep at home, so let's go back first."

"I'll come back when I have time later."

After saying that, he left with Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Yueqing.

Before leaving, they gave some candy and cookies to the onlookers.

These people felt indebted to He Yushen because they had eaten his food, and since He's mother's family had indeed treated He Yushen badly, they started pointing fingers at He's mother.

I think she's incredibly stupid; she only wants money and not her son.

He Yushen has a wealthy mother-in-law now, he's sure to prosper in the future.

That old lady He is so stupid, she doesn't know how to flatter, she won't even spend a single meal on me, she's incredibly stupid.

Old Mrs. He felt like she was going to vomit.

She even felt like she had lost out.

It's only two hundred yuan, but that's several years' worth of retirement funds.

She only got one pastry at most; she didn't earn anything else.

When He Yushen's sons returned home and learned that He Yushen had a wealthy mother-in-law, they also had their own thoughts about him.
