Chapter 120: Zhou Weidong exposes the hypocritical adoptive parents of the original owner!
The two looked at each other, thought for a long time and just said: "In the countryside, it's just steamed bread and pickles. She eats these every day, what else can she like to eat?"
Zhou Weidong originally wanted to test how much they cared about Su Mengxue, but after listening to their words, he realized what kind of life Su Mengxue was living in the countryside.
He asked seriously, "It's not the same era anymore, and life in the countryside isn't that hard anymore. Let me ask you, she eats steamed bread and pickles at home, but what do her two brothers eat at home? Do they also eat steamed bread and pickles?"
"Her two brothers?" Wu Xianghong was stunned for a moment and muttered softly, "His two brothers have to work in the fields. They are the main laborers of the family. Of course, they eat better than him."
Zhou Weidong suppressed his inner anger and asked, "So what do they eat?"
Wu Xianghong lowered her voice: "They, they eat steamed buns and eggs, and occasionally a little meat."
Zhou Weidong knew she wasn't telling the truth, but he couldn't bear to ask any more questions. He turned to look at Su Mengxue, her rough hands that didn't look good for her age, and softened his voice to ask, "Girl, what do you usually do at home?"
Su Mengxue thought of the contents of the book, looked at the couple with hatred, and said, "When I get up in the morning, I go to feed the pigs first, then go to the fields to do some farm work, then come back to make breakfast and wash clothes. After breakfast, I go back to the fields to do farm work. I work until the sun goes down in the afternoon, then I come home to make dinner and clean the house."
After she finished speaking, the couple lowered their heads even more and said nothing.
Disgust flashed in her eyes, and she added slowly, "As for my two brothers, they're both lazy and idle. Expecting them to work in the fields is like the sun rising from the west."
After hearing this, Zhou Weidong felt sorry for Su Mengxue, and the anger on his face suddenly increased a bit. He glanced at the couple, then turned to Su Mengxue and said, "Good child, you suffered in the past, but now that you have come to the city, you will never have that kind of life again. Whether you continue to stay with me or choose to go somewhere else, as long as you need anything, come to me anytime."
After he finished speaking, he sighed heavily with a sad look on his face and whispered, "Okay, take them both out to eat. I should take a nap."
After he finished speaking, he thought for a moment and added, "Girl, don't blame Grandpa for not giving you face. Don't let them come to my place again in the future, so as not to make me upset when they see me."
The couple pursed their lips, wanting to retort but not knowing what to say, and in the end they could only remain silent.
Su Mengxue thought so too, but she said it would be more effective if these words came from the master's mouth. After all, the store belonged to the master. Now that he had said so, the couple would not be willing to come again even if they were shameless.
She also knew that the old master was a reasonable and respectable man. He said this entirely out of consideration for her. Her heart warmed, and she replied readily, "I understand, Grandpa." After saying this, she glanced at the couple and said meaningfully, "You don't need to tell me. Anyone with any shame will probably not come here again."
Wu Xianghong got anxious when she heard this. After all, they took the old man's money. They tolerated whatever he said, but they would never allow this damn girl to ride on their heads and shit. She wanted to scold her, but considering that the old man was still there, she could only whisper and scold: "You damn girl, is that how you say your parents? If it weren't for us, would you have grown up like this? Do you still have a conscience? If you keep talking nonsense, we will not recognize you as our daughter."
Su Mengxue chuckled and replied, "You don't acknowledge me? Didn't you raise me so you could marry into the Gu family? Now that you haven't received the betrothal gift, how can you be willing to do a losing business?"
Su Mengxue deliberately made this sentence vague, and the couple seemed to have sensed something from her words and panicked for a moment. Su Daqiang suddenly widened his eyes and asked, "You, you, do you know something?"
Su Mengxue looked straight at him and asked coldly: "What do you mean by this? What should I know?"
Just as Su Daqiang was about to speak, Wu Dahong grabbed his arm. She took a few steps forward and approached Su Mengxue, and said angrily: "You little bitch, you should know that you should be filial to us in the future, and don't be so mean as to bully us with others. Otherwise, what else can you do?"
Zhou Weidong, who was about to walk to the backyard, naturally noticed something from their conversation. His eyes darkened, and he guessed about 70% of it. Then he left calmly and called Chunhua, who was busy in the backyard, to take over.
Su Daqiang reacted and echoed: "Silly girl, your mother is right, you must be obedient and filial to us in the future, otherwise the saliva of the folks will drown you."
Su Mengxue knew that Wu Xianghong was much more cunning and quicker to react than Su Daqiang, but she didn't want to expose them at the moment, so she just watched them sing the same tune here.
She said calmly, "Mom and Dad, since you've said that, what else can I say? Let's go eat quickly, so you don't have to accuse me of being unfilial."
Su Daqiang snorted and replied, "It's good that you know, you little bitch. Okay, your mother and I are hungry too, so we won't talk nonsense with you anymore. Let's go eat quickly."
When Chunhua arrived, Su Mengxue took them out and went straight to the state-owned restaurant. When they got there, Su Mengxue ordered three bowls of noodles from the waiter, and then let her go.
The couple immediately became anxious. Su Daqiang said, "We finally made it to the city, and you're giving us this to eat?"
Wu Xianghong curled her lips, looked at Su Mengxue and said, "Humph, are you sending me away like a beggar? I want to eat meat." Then she called out to the waiter who was walking away, "Wait, we haven't ordered yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
The waiter came over and handed them the menu again, smiling and asking, "What else would you like to order?"
"We can't read, so just remember what I say. Give me one portion of braised pork, and another portion of braised spareribs..."
"Let's make it clear in advance. I haven't received my salary yet. I don't have that much money. If you want to eat, you have to pay for it yourself."
Before Wu Xianghong finished speaking, Su Mengxue interrupted.
"Hey, you damn girl, I finally come to the city, and you dare to ask us to pay?" Su Daqiang was so anxious that he almost jumped up and down, and his voice suddenly became much higher.
Without waiting for Wu Xianghong to intervene, Su Mengxue spoke up, "You only gave me a few dollars when I came to the city. How can I have any money left?"
Su Daqiang frowned and asked, "Stop pretending here. I don't believe that the Gu family didn't give you money."
Su Mengxue looked at the two of them and suddenly had an idea. After a few seconds of silence, she slowly said, "Give it to me."
