"Hehe! Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! There's no such thing! The Mo family and the Zhao family have always been on good terms! No one owes anyone anything! I absolutely never said anything like that!"
Luo had no other choice but to play the blame game. Since there was no concrete evidence, she refused to admit it no matter what. What could anyone do to her?
"Oh!" Old Mrs. Mo raised her voice at the end, deliberately drawing it out to make it sound like she was quite interested. She even put on a curious expression. "Are you sure the Mo family doesn't owe the Zhao family anything? You should think it through, lest you say we forced you to say that later!"
Luo is greedy and prone to taking advantage of others. When faced with problems she can't solve, she's always shameless and unreasonable, refusing to admit anything. Don't even think about doing anything to her!
This time was no exception. She quickly said, "The Mo family doesn't owe the Zhao family anything! Never! Hehe, my dear in-law, you just love to joke. Nobody forced me to say this. This is what I really think. Our two families have always gotten along very well and lived in peace. Nobody owes anyone anything. It's not true!"
In short, she refuses to admit it to the death, and the truth can't be found!
Old Mrs. Mo knew who Luo was and had long expected that she wouldn't admit it. Even if she had just said it, she could deny it immediately if she wanted to!
But Old Mrs. Mo didn't want to let Luo Shi off so easily. This time, it was obvious that Luo Shi was trying to use other people's words to gain benefits for herself. She was willing to be used by others and came running over.
If we let her off easily this time, there's no guarantee there won't be a next time, and who knows what kind of trouble she'll cause next time!
Then there's no need to wait for next time. Let's teach Luo a lesson this time. Whether it will deter her or not, we don't know, but at least it will make her think twice.
When Luo comes, she usually seeks out Zhao to help, but Zhao clearly doesn't want to deal with it and refuses directly. If she refuses too many times, Luo might frame Zhao behind her back.
Therefore, the Zhao family is also a key point, and we should start from there.
Old Madam Mo sneered a few times, "Fine! Remember what you said, our Mo family has never owed your Zhao family anything, that's the truth!"
Mrs. Luo nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, yes, if anyone lies behind my back, I'll tear their mouth apart!"
In an effort to clear her name, Luo went to great lengths to speak on her behalf, which earned her the contempt of the Mo family. This woman's attitude changed faster than flipping through a book!
Grandma Mo's expression softened considerably, seemingly quite satisfied with Luo's performance, which made Luo a little arrogant again.
She felt that the Mo family just wanted an explanation, and now that Old Madam Mo seemed to be less concerned, she should take advantage of the opportunity to ask boldly if it was possible to reach an agreement. She had to give it a try!
So, Ms. Luo began to try to justify her trip, putting on what she thought was her most beautiful smile and speaking in a gentle and amicable tone.
“My dear in-laws, our two families have always gotten along very well. Huilan has been diligent and hardworking since marrying into the Mo family; she is a virtuous wife and loving mother! The prosperity of the Mo family is inseparable from Huilan’s contributions!”
Grandma Mo nodded, "Yes, that's right!"
These words were spoken sincerely, and it is indeed true. Zhao was diligent and hardworking, and the Mo family's recovery was inseparable from her efforts!
This is an acknowledgment and affirmation of the Zhao family!
Upon hearing this, Luo was delighted. This younger sister-in-law did have some advantages to offer!
Maybe the Mo family will help them out because of their sister-in-law!
Luo's joy was written all over her face. The Mo family wasn't stupid; how could they not understand what she was thinking!
But Luo didn't notice anything amiss. She praised Zhao even more enthusiastically, making Zhao's face darken and her eyes widen.
If you don't know how to give a compliment, then don't!
It's not what I really meant, it's really offensive to say it out loud!
I don't know how this person's skin is so thick, you can't even prick it with a needle!
Luo thought that such generous praise would surely make the Mo family very happy, and when people are happy, they are more likely to agree!
Luo's thinking was indeed correct, but the Mo family was not as happy as she had imagined; their reaction was rather indifferent.
After talking for a long time, they finally got to the point: "Mother-in-law, the Mo family is doing well now. They've made money and are living comfortably. Look at us, the Zhao family is still dirt poor. We haven't eaten meat for months. Our lives are miserable! Can you help us think of a business idea so we can do some business and make some money?"
Grandma Mo chuckled, "If business were that easy, there would be rich people everywhere! Do you think doing business is child's play?"
Su Nanxi and Mo Qinghe were at the back of the crowd. They heard Luo and Zhao's conversation very clearly, but they didn't go over to stop them. They had to give people a chance to speak their minds!
So the two of them walked over slowly later.
They had anticipated this situation, so they remained calm and composed.
That's just how the world is; people are not worried about scarcity but about inequality.
The most important thing is human nature. People can't stand seeing others do well, and they can't stand seeing others have the same relationships while they don't!
To put it bluntly, it's just envy and jealousy!
They even thought it was a matter of course!
That's why Madam Luo disagreed with Old Madam Mo's words. "You can't say that. Look at that mute woman, isn't she very clever? She's already come up with an idea for Wenying. Coming up with another one would just be a piece of cake. Why won't you help her out? We're all relatives of the Mo family. We can't help one and not the other!"
Grandma Mo laughed in exasperation, but she knew that Madam Luo was already trapped in the mindset she had set for herself, so saying anything more would be pointless. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
“You’re right! Here’s what we’re going to do. You see, our Mo family seems to have a lot of people, but actually, there are very few who can actually do the work. We’re very busy and tired from doing business, and we’re really short-handed. Your Zhao family has many brothers and a lot of people, so why don’t you all come to the Mo family to help out before dawn every day? Everyone come. Anyway, it’s the same whether one of you comes or not. Once you’re done, you can just go home.”
This time, Luo was furious. She jumped up and down, hands on her hips, shouting, "How can that be! You want us all to work for you for free, and come before dawn? How can you say that! Why should we, the Zhao family, do hard labor for you? You're shameless! We don't owe you anything!"
Grandma Mo chuckled and said, "That's right! So shameless! Always thinking about taking advantage without having to give anything in return, and acting so entitled! Ordering others around to do this and that!"
Luo thought that Old Madam Mo would start arguing with her, so she straightened her back, ready to unleash a torrent of abuse. But Old Madam Mo did not play by the rules, leaving her completely bewildered.
How can anyone admit to being shameless!
He even voiced his own little thoughts; isn't that insulting himself?
This completely baffled Mrs. Luo, who couldn't understand what Old Mrs. Mo was up to and didn't know how to respond.
The air was stuck in my throat, unable to go down or come out.
"What does the mother-in-law mean?"
