Chapter 257 How Dare He
"What on earth is this watermelon? It's so delicious!"
"Yes, Sister Fang and the others are really, really generous."
Zhou still remembered what Qiao Xuan had told her, so she didn't dare let her son eat too much. The three of them ate half of it, and the remaining half was carefully kept for later in the evening.
Qiao Xuan also said that once the melon is cut, it cannot be left overnight, otherwise it might upset your stomach if you eat it.
Just after eating watermelon, Grandma Ding Wu came.
As soon as she entered the room, the warm atmosphere in the room froze instantly. The three members of the family - including the little Ding Xiaoshi - all froze and were worried.
Grandma Ding Wu glared at him with hatred and snorted, "What? Don't you recognize me? You don't even know how to call for help!"
Zhou pursed her lips, turned her head slightly to the side stiffly, bit her lip and said nothing.
Call someone? What?
This family are all beasts, not human beings!
Ding Erzhu opened his mouth, but no sound came out of his throat.
He was used to being controlled by his mother, and subconsciously wanted to call her when she scolded him. But when he thought about what they had done to his family, how could he still call her?
"You are all ungrateful!" Grandma Ding Wu said angrily, "I still thought of you and sent you food! Is this your attitude? Second brother, what's wrong? You don't even recognize your mother?"
Ding Erzhu laughed bitterly: "I have already left the house with nothing. I have kowtowed to you, but I dare not acknowledge you anymore. I also cannot acknowledge you!"
"You——" Grandma Ding Wu was so angry that she trembled. Suddenly, she pointed at Zhou and cursed: "Was it you, a bitch, who instigated it? Hmm? It must be! The second son is such an honest man, and has always been filial. But everything is wrong after he married you! You, a wicked woman, have been instigating behind his back all these years! Now it has become like this, harming the second son, and almost harming your own son. Are you satisfied? It's still too early, you will get your retribution sooner or later!"
"I'm not afraid of retribution! I'm not afraid!" Zhou choked and screamed, "I'll take what's due to me, I'm not afraid! What about you? Are you afraid of retribution? Are you afraid?"
"Rebellion!" Grandma Ding Wu continued to rage, rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward to hit Zhou: "You evil woman——"
Ding Erzhu suddenly stopped her, his eyes solemn: "Go back, you don't have to worry about our family's affairs. We don't want your things either, you can take them back!"
Grandma Ding Wu stared at Ding Erzhu in shock and disbelief, her lips trembling, and she was unable to speak for a moment.
Her son has always been honest and filial. She would never go east or west if she said so. Even though he was kicked out of the house, she didn't take it seriously at all.
Because she really looked down on this son who was tongue-tied, timid and only knew how to work. In her eyes, he was a coward. So what if he left the house on impulse?
Sooner or later you will have to bow your head and beg to go home!
It was not until this moment that she suddenly realized that it seemed, it seemed that she was wrong.
This coward, how dare he!
"Okay, okay, I want to see how strong your bones are! How capable are you in feeding these two mouths? Ha! I'm waiting to see!"
"When the time comes, don't blame me for not giving you face!"
Ding Erzhu turned his head, his face full of pain and forbearance.
His mother has never liked him. He also knows that he is tongue-tied and unpopular, and has always felt inferior to others, but he never expected that his mother would treat him like this.
Grandma Ding Wu sneered and was about to leave when she saw Ding Xiaoshi lying on the low table, reaching out to poke at half of a melon of some unknown kind with bright red flesh and many seeds, and then she pried off a piece and put it in her mouth.
