Chapter 482: Autumn Wind
"Is your family eating meat again? Come, lend me a bowl of meat." Old Mrs. Yang handed a large bowl to Kang Mingyuan.
"Aunt Yang, we don't eat meat at home." Kang Mingyuan's face darkened when he saw the large bowl that was bigger than his head: This old woman is too greedy. Even if all the mutton in their family is given to her, it would not be enough to fill the bowl.
"You're kidding me. The smell is so strong that the neighbors can smell it, and you still tell me you didn't eat meat." Old Mrs. Yang looked at him with disdain.
"Auntie Yang, we haven't even cooked dinner yet, where does the smell come from?" Kang Mingyuan moved to the side so that Auntie Yang could see everything in the house clearly.
Old Mrs. Yang stuck her head in and saw that the house was indeed empty. The aroma of meat she had smelled downstairs was not in this house either. She couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that they really don't eat meat at home? But her nose had never been wrong, so how could it be wrong today?
"You really don't eat meat at home? Didn't you put the meat away?"
"Old lady, what does it have to do with you what my family eats? Besides, the things in my family are earned by myself. I didn't steal or rob them. I eat them honestly. Why should I put them away?" Qiao Mo couldn't help it when he saw her looking like she was interrogating a criminal.
"How can you talk like that, little girl?" Old Mrs. Yang's eyes widened into cow's.
"I'm telling the truth. What does it have to do with you what my family eats? My husband and I are not your parents. We have no responsibility to raise you. Why should I lend you my meat?" Qiao Mo said with a straight face.
"We are neighbors, and my son is a colleague of your husband. We should help each other." Old Mrs. Yang looked at Kang Mingyuan, who was standing next to Qiao Mo with a stern face, and said hesitantly.
"So you just go from house to house to borrow things?" Qiao Mo asked with a sneer, "You let others help you so much, but what have you helped them with?"
"As an old lady, what can I do to help others? How come you don't respect the elderly or love the young at all?" Old Mrs. Yang said with a specious argument.
"I have both old and young people in my family. I can't show my respect to you, nor can I show my love to your family. So, you'd better not come to my house to cause trouble. Otherwise, don't blame me for taking your son's job." Qiao Mo thought that if she didn't take drastic measures, the old lady would definitely keep pestering her, so she said viciously.
"How can you be so cruel? I just want to borrow something from you, and you want to ruin my job." When Mrs. Yang heard that she wanted to take away her son's job, she was frightened and her face turned pale. Her son was not only her pride, but also the capital for her to bully others in this residential compound.
"Am I as cruel as you? You fleece every household and beg for money, yet you still have the nerve to say that I am cruel. Besides, since your son, a cadre, can't even support his own mother, what else can he do? He might as well go back and grow sweet potatoes." Qiao Mo stripped her face off, threw it to the ground, and stomped on it a few times.
"I'm just borrowing some things, how can I be asked for money?" Old Mrs. Yang was anxious.
"You just borrowed some things? Borrowing is only done if you return them. You borrowed so many things from others, but have you ever returned them? Borrowing and not returning, isn't that extortion?" Qiao Mo thought to himself, how despicable a person is.
"Aunt Yang, I don't have any meat to lend you today, and I won't have any extra things to lend you in the future, so I hope you won't come to my house again in the future." Kang Mingyuan didn't want to get entangled with an old woman, so he unceremoniously ordered her to leave.
"Hmph." Old Mrs. Yang knew that she couldn't gain any advantage here, so she snorted heavily and left angrily.
