Upon hearing her words, Yuan Dasheng put down his cigarette, looked at her, and said, "You just go when your father tells you to. Didn't you eat any chicken?"
Yuan Mengge sneered: "I ate, so we've all fed you before. Did you feed you? You're the only one who's eating for free!"
Yuan Xiangyong was shocked that she couldn't even get him to feed the chickens, and he couldn't help but get angry. He pointed at her and yelled, "So you can't be woken up? I gave birth to you, you eat my food, live in my house, use my things, and you can't even do a little work?"
With her hands in her pockets and a blank expression, Yuan Mengge said, "If you didn't have this son who eats and drinks for free, then of course I would work even though I eat your food, live in your house, and use your things. But why is it that he eats your food, lives in your house, and uses your things, yet he doesn't have to do anything?"
“He’s my son. I’m willing to raise him, let him eat, drink, and live here for free. When we get old, he’ll take care of us. He can carry on the Yuan family line. Can you be like him?” Yuan Xiangyong glared at her and cursed.
"He'll take care of you in your old age? Carry on the family line? I don't know if our ancestors would even acknowledge him as their descendant, but I know he definitely won't take care of you in your old age! You'll just have to wait to be worn down by him when you get old. He'll be out there having a good time with his mistress and illegitimate child, hoping you die soon so he can sell your house." Yuan Mengge retorted coldly.
Yuan Xiangyong was so angry at her words that he almost died of anger.
"You brat, I bet you're hoping I die soon! Huh! How dare you talk to me like that? I'll beat you to death today!" He was so angry that he started looking for a stick all over the yard, wanting to teach this daughter who dared to talk back to him a lesson.
"You can't win an argument, so you resort to violence, huh? You're so sexist, you'll regret it in a few years! Let's see if your good son will take care of you in your old age!" Yuan Mengge saw him looking for a stick, turned and ran, still muttering to herself as she ran.
At this moment, Yuan Dasheng added fuel to the fire for Yuan Xiangyong, saying, "Dad, you can't outrun her, you shouldn't let her come back for dinner!"
Then he pointed at Yuan Mengge and cursed, "Have you been possessed these past few days? You're cursing at everyone you see? Huh? What did I do to offend you? You stole my bike yesterday, hit me last night, and are cursing me today??? Are you a mad dog? You bark at everyone you see?"
Yuan Mengge had already been chased away by her grandfather, who was still in his prime, and didn't hear what Yuan Dasheng cursed.
Li Xue'e, who was watching from the kitchen doorway, discovered that Yuan Mengge was not only skilled in martial arts, but also had an amazing tongue.
Li Xue'e laughed when she saw Yuan Xiangyong chasing her with a stick.
She wasn't worried at all that Yuan Mengge would get beaten up, but she was a little worried about her father-in-law's health, wondering if he would fall down while chasing her.
It would be terrible if he fell and got seriously injured.
Inside, Yao Dongqing was busy while listening to their argument outside. She muttered to herself, "I don't know what's wrong with Aping these past few days. She's either arguing with her brother or her dad. She never dared to talk to her dad like that before."
As if realizing something, she continued, "It's like a rebellious bone suddenly grew in her head; she just wants to go against her father and brother."
Li Xue'e smiled slightly and said softly, "This is good, we won't be bullied in the future."
"Hmph, look at her now, who would dare bully her?" Yao Dongqing said, then suddenly remembered what Yuan Dasheng had said earlier, turned to Li Xue'e and asked, "Wait a minute, her brother just said she hit him last night? When? Why did she hit him? Do you know?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xue'e immediately looked away with an unnatural expression: "Uh, that... no, Pingping didn't hit him. He's just talking nonsense. He just tripped and fell at the bar last night."
Then she said, "Mom, I'll go feed the chickens and ducks. What should I feed them with?"
Yao Dongqing said to her, "Forget it, let Dasheng go. Go and talk to Dasheng."
Li Xue'e went out and said to Yuan Dasheng, who was standing by the living room door, "Mom said you should go feed them."
Yuan Dasheng threw his cigarette butt on the ground and then said to her, "Come on, let's go together."
Li Xue'e followed behind him and they walked up the back mountain together.
On the other side, Yuan Xiangyong, carrying a stick, chased Yuan Mengge all over the village, cursing as he ran.
In the end, he was so exhausted that he could only stand by the roadside cursing.
"You brat, if you've got the guts, don't come back tonight! You can sleep in the mountains then! I'm so angry... How could I have raised such a freak... What a thing!"
Then the whole village heard him cursing and swearing, and they all peeked out to see what was going on, and saw him chasing his daughter all over the village.
The villagers found it strange to see Yuan Pingping being chased and beaten by her father like this for the first time, and a series of doubts arose in their minds.
What did Yuan Pingping do to make her father so angry?
Yuan Pingping used to be quiet and well-behaved, and she usually listened to her father. When did she become so rebellious?
This girl runs pretty fast...
Yuan Mengge stopped running when she saw that Yuan Xiangyong was no longer chasing her.
"Ah Ping, what did you do to make your dad angry?" a passing villager asked curiously.
Yuan Mengge didn't say anything, only saying, "It's nothing, he's just getting old, and his liver fire is naturally a bit too strong."
Then she went to the convenience store; she definitely can't go back now.
Since we won't be able to have dinner, we'll have to buy some snacks to tide us over.
It's a pity she didn't ride her bike out, otherwise she could have ridden it directly to town to get something to eat.
Walking there... is a bit far.
She went into the convenience store, bought a bottle of water and a piece of bread, and then sat on a chair outside the store to eat.
The person who runs the convenience store is not a relative of the Yuan family; it belongs to someone surnamed Yang.
When the shop owner saw Yuan Mengge come to buy something to eat, she smiled and asked, "What did you do? Why are you so angry with your dad?"
Yuan Mengge said, "It's nothing, I just argued with him a bit, and when he couldn't argue with me, he tried to hit me."
The proprietress said, "How dare you talk back to your father? You never used to do that!"
Yuan Mengge replied, "That was in the past. I'm all grown up now. He's not right about everything, just because he thinks he's my dad and therefore he's always right."
Hearing this, the proprietress looked at her with some surprise, and then said meaningfully, "Heh, you've grown up."
Yuan Mengge chatted with the landlady for a while, while thinking to herself what excuse she should come up with to go to her grandfather's house tomorrow.
She knew what Li Xue'e would encounter on the day she returned to her parents' home.
Because Li Xue'e had told her about this before.
