Chapter 344: This Can’t Be Let Go
Jiang Huan finished scolding, then looked at Shen Meng again, reaching out to hold her hand, with a somewhat reluctant expression on her face.
"Girl, let me tell you the truth, your brother-in-law’s sister got married in the west of the city, right next to Lu Zhengya’s place. She often comes over to visit our family and talks about Lu Zhengya. Oh my, that woman, she’s not easy to deal with. Her husband has been gone for four or five years. Initially, everyone felt sorry for her and helped her out a lot by doing chores and giving her things, but later on, people realized she wasn’t grateful at all and took their kindness for granted. Actually, we could overlook these things since, after all, she’s a widow and life is hard for her. Everyone bears with it for the sake of her deceased husband, but, alas, that woman is extravagant. She spent all her husband’s pension on dressing up, buying new clothes, new shoes, facial cream, hair oil, and lipstick; she buys whatever she sees. Life just couldn’t be more lush for her, but her poor kids, they can’t even get a sip of hot water."
Shen Meng: "....."
What a horrifying, selfish, hypocritical woman!!!
"That’s just it......"
"That’s not it at all, sister. This is more than just harsh for the kids; she doesn’t treat her children like humans at all."
"What can you do, that’s just how the woman is, always dolling herself up and flirting with men, telling her kids to go eat at her mom’s house every day. And her mom is biased, exploiting her daughter-in-law to support her own daughter. I heard that Lu Zhengya’s elder sister-in-law went back to work just a few days after giving birth, working hard in the workshop just to earn some extra cash to buy some nutrients to feed the children. My sister-in-law even met Lu Zhengya’s sister-in-law; oh, she’s just a bag of bones. Sometimes when neighbors see the children starving, they give them some food. Lu Zhengya doesn’t appreciate this, saying that the neighbors are laughing at her, and often beats her children. What kind of behavior is that!"
Shen Meng nodded her head in distress, but couldn’t feel any sympathy for the children. She clearly remembered what Ya Fei told Mingyang’s children back then. That person truly is Lu Zhengya’s breed, deeply scheming, trying to trip up her children, as if they could overpower those raised by her.
"Girl, these years, Lu Zhengya has messed around with many men. One of them even got sent to Northwestern labor reform due to counterfeit tickets. The man was only twenty-two when he was taken away, sentenced to forty years of reform. It’s pitiful, you tell me, Lu Zhengya’s almost thirty, how could she go after such a young guy! When I found out, I wanted to slap that shameless woman to death."
Shen Meng: "...."
She’s living so recklessly; if this were in the future, she might even become a popular figure admired by the youth, especially this older woman-younger man thing, who doesn’t like a younger brother, young and energetic.
