Also, Lu Huaijiao and Lao Si need to eat, right? They don't go to work every day, so where does their money come from?
There is only one explanation.
That means the elderly couple secretly subsidized their fourth son and his wife.
Don't think she didn't know. A few days ago, after the family split up, she saw Lu Huaijiao come out of the old couple's room with a thick wad of money in her hand.
At the time, she didn't think much of it, but now that she thinks about it carefully, she realizes that it was the old couple who were secretly subsidizing the fourth son and his wife.
No wonder, no wonder they live such carefree lives. While others are at work, they're sleeping in at home, and they even have the audacity to do such shameless things...
Xu Honglian grew angrier the more she thought about it. Her gaze fell on a wood-chopping knife placed under the eaves. She walked over, picked it up, and deliberately went to the room closest to Lu Huaijiao and the others, where she started banging it loudly.
If she were just giving me a nudge, that would be fine.
The problem was that she was muttering something while she was banging on the keys.
"Damn stinking rats, lazy and good-for-nothing, stealing things from the house. Don't think I didn't see it, the old man gave you all the food..."
Xu Honglian's voice was not quiet.
Therefore, even if Lu Huaijiao was drowsy, she would be woken up by this noisy voice.
Lu Huaijiao, who was woken up, was quite impatient.
She was about to sit up and start yelling at someone when Gu Changzheng went out first.
Lu Huaijiao: ? ? ?
Even the opportunity to swear is being stolen?
Outside the door.
Gu Changzheng opened the door, his face radiating a chilling aura, his entire body seemingly covered in a thin layer of ice.
He didn't say anything, but instead raised his foot and kicked a wooden bucket by the door.
The wooden bucket crashed straight down at Xu Honglian's feet, startling her so much that she immediately shut her mouth, which had been wide open as if about to curse.
"you……"
She turned her head and looked at Gu Changzheng, who was staring in disbelief. She had originally intended to use her status as his sister-in-law to put pressure on him.
But when she saw Gu Changzheng's gloomy face, which looked like it could squeeze water out of it, Xu Honglian trembled all over, and all the words she had prepared for her speech were forgotten.
He could only stare blankly at Gu Changzheng.
"Fourth brother...you..."
"Xu Honglian, do you believe I'll kill you?"
Don't think Gu Changzheng doesn't know that Xu Honglian was just making veiled accusations against his parents and Jiaojiao for being with him.
At this moment, Gu Changzheng's face was as cold as a demon about to devour people.
Xu Honglian was startled and took a step back. She stepped on the wooden bucket that had fallen to the ground next to her feet, lost her balance, and fell backward with a thud.
"Bang..."
A not-so-loud sound rang out.
Xu Honglian's bottom almost got bruised and battered.
She looked up and saw Gu Changzheng's indifferent expression, then suddenly opened her mouth wide and howled.
"Wow! I can't live anymore! My brother-in-law hit my sister-in-law!"
Xu Honglian is a typical shrew, narrow-minded, and when something happens, she immediately starts yelling, calling a deer a horse, and wrongly accusing others.
Gu Changzheng was a man, and also her brother-in-law, and Xu Honglian took advantage of this to relentlessly smear him. She refused to believe that Gu Changzheng would actually dare to lay a hand on her.
Gu Changzheng scoffed.
With his arms crossed over his chest, he sneered and strode off toward Xu Honglian.
Xu Honglian was a little scared.
But she still clung to a last sliver of hope, thinking that Gu Changzheng wouldn't dare to lay a hand on her, his sister-in-law.
"Gu Changzheng, move aside."
Lu Huaijiao's sharp, delicate voice rang out from the side. Gu Changzheng sensed the wind behind him and his steps naturally swayed to the side.
Lu Huaijiao carried a basin of red water of unknown origin and splashed it vertically onto Xu Honglian, who was sitting on the ground and had not yet had time to get up.
Xu Honglian was soaked to the bone. She looked up and saw that the water dripping from her hair was sticky and smelled of paint.
She touched it and found that her hand was also covered in red.
"Lu Huaijiao, you threw paint on me?"
"So what? I'll not only throw paint on you, I'll beat you up too."
As soon as she finished speaking, she grabbed a broom from the wall and rushed over to give Xu Honglian a good beating.
"I'll teach you to be sarcastic and mean, to be jealous and speak veiledly, to call your parents old people. I'll teach you to curse, I'll teach you to curse."
Lu Huaijiao is petite, but she has quite a bit of strength when she hits someone.
The broom struck Xu Honglian repeatedly, each blow landing on her body, causing her to howl in pain. She tried to get up but couldn't stand steadily, and Lu Huaijiao also lashed her hands twice with the broom while she was supporting herself on the ground.
"ah……"
Xu Honglian let out a scream.
"Lu Huaijiao, I'm going to fight you to the death."
With bloodshot eyes, Xu Honglian snatched the broom from Lu Huaijiao's hands, stood up forcefully, and swung the broom at Lu Huaijiao.
"Gu Changzheng!"
Lu Huaijiao ran up behind Gu Changzheng, who was walking up, and hid behind him, tugging at his clothes and peeking out to look at Xu Honglian opposite them.
Xu Honglian's broom fell to the ground, but Gu Changzheng caught it with one hand and snatched it away.
He tossed it casually, and it slammed hard onto the ground to the side.
"Xu Honglian, don't push your luck."
Xu Honglian: ? ? ?
Who is really going too far here?
"Fourth brother, didn't you see that bitch Lu Huaijiao..." Before she could finish saying "bitch," Xu Honglian was slapped across the face by Gu Changzheng, making her face contort.
Her ears were ringing.
For a moment, I couldn't hear anything in my left ear.
"Gu Changzheng!!"
