Chapter 503 - 437 Cannon Fodder Dedicated in the 90s 4
Ms. Li’s mind was also on that money.
But she was not in a hurry.
"...Who would be a thief in broad daylight? And who would dare to go to her house? Don’t forget what Qin’s profession is."
Eldest Sister-in-law Rong: ...
Indeed, her sister-in-law’s husband was not someone to mess with.
He himself was a well-known rogue in the entire town, which thief would be foolish enough to break into his house?
Ms. Li thought of that rogue son-in-law and felt even more depressed, losing any desire to cook.
And she felt even harder to calm down.
If it hadn’t been for that foolish girl making her own decision to marry such a man, how could she have lost the 300 yuan bride price?
The family originally agreed to give 300 yuan... Such an amount for a bride price was unparalleled in the entire town.
Yet, that foolish girl made it disappear.
Just thinking about it made her extremely angry.
Did that foolish girl think her mother would harm her? What’s there to fear about being older? Didn’t she know that older age could bring more affection?
What is there to be afraid of someone already having children? At least, you won’t have to bear children and can be a mother right away.
Unfortunately, that foolish girl was too willful.
If it were anyone else, she would never agree to this marriage, but Qin Ye...
Ms. Li thought of that man with a gloomy face and felt intimidated.
Since the foolish girl was so undutiful, then the money in her hands should rightfully be handed over to the family.
Seeing that her mother-in-law was in a bad mood, Eldest Sister-in-law Rong simply didn’t want to annoy her here.
After all, she had already reminded her earlier, believing her mother-in-law would visit her sister-in-law’s house later.
If the sister-in-law didn’t come by then, who would wash today’s clothes?
In the sweltering heat, if the clothes aren’t washed today, they will be ruined by tomorrow.
Half an hour later, Ms. Li made a few dishes...
When the family sat down to eat, and everyone picked up their chopsticks to start their meal... Everyone’s facial expressions turned sour.
"Mom, did you cook this afternoon? Where is Sister Yan? Didn’t she come?" Second Brother Rong, who was called Rong Kai, knew immediately from the taste that it was definitely cooked by his mother.
After all, Sister Yan was quite the cook, but the dishes their mother made were always not very appetizing.
Ms. Li had just calmed her anger.
Mentioned like this, her fury reignited.
"That foolish girl has become bold, she didn’t come at all today... When I went there this morning, she wasn’t there, and I don’t even know where she died off to."
Previously, the Rong Family knew Rong Yan’s nature well, but ever since she disrupted the family-arranged marriage and insisted on marrying Qin.
They realized she wasn’t really obedient.
If she were really obedient... how could she have done such a thing?
The whole family thought about the 300 yuan bride price, and everyone felt extremely distressed.
If it were to be divided, each of their families could get a hundred yuan.
"Mom, you should go there again this afternoon, otherwise... if Sister Yan becomes wayward, she won’t cook for us in the future. I’m not saying that the food you make isn’t tasty... I just don’t want you to work too hard."
Rong Kai knew how to speak well, delighting Ms. Li.
"It’s my son who cares for me after all. If that foolish girl had even half of your filial piety, our family wouldn’t have to endure such hardships."
"Exactly..." Rong Kai indulged his mother with pleasing words.
Others also criticized Rong Yan, thinking her behavior was unacceptable...
Rong Yan didn’t know about any of this, and even if she did, she wouldn’t care.
After drinking the medicine and sleeping in a daze, she sweated profusely.
When she woke up and checked her own pulse, she found that her slight fever had subsided, and her body felt significantly better.
It seemed that the medicine she had prepared was quite effective.
Since there was no problem with her body now, she decided not to take the remaining two doses.
Just as she was getting out of bed to take another bath and freshen up, she heard a loud knocking at the door, "You damned girl, hurry up and open the door..."
Upon hearing this, Rong Yan knew that it was the original owner’s fierce mother coming.
A chill in her eyes, she did not go looking for trouble, yet here it was delivered to her doorstep.
Thus, she got dressed, put on her shoes, and walked out of the room.
Upon opening the door... Ms. Li, who was knocking vigorously, almost fell in, unguarded.
Fortunately, she managed to stabilize herself in time.
However, this also made her incredibly angry.
"You damned girl, you are indeed at home... I’m asking you, why didn’t you go to work today? Don’t you know that the clothes at home are still unwashed?"
Ms. Li grew angrier as she spoke, initially planning to come after lunch, but was delayed by some urgent matters until now.
Rong Yan glanced at the sky, it was already four o’clock, wasn’t it? She still expected her to wash clothes?
She was rendered speechless.
Seeing her expression, Ms. Li grew even angrier, "What do you mean by not speaking? Come home with me now and wash clothes, and also, it’s time to prepare dinner."
"And, where’s the money? Give me the money."
Demanding money so boldly,
as if the money rightfully belonged to her.
"What money? If you want money, there is none," Rong Yan sneered, "Also, washing what clothes? Have the hands of everyone in your family broken? Do you still need a married daughter to come back and do laundry and cook?"
Ms. Li was shocked by her audacious words.
Immediately, her face turned livid with rage, raising her hand to strike, "What are you saying to your mother?"
Rong Yan watched the hand coming towards her, but before she could react, the hand was restrained by another large hand.
Ms. Li’s wrist was so painfully gripped and then flung away that she staggered.
"Who..." The words choked off when she saw Qin Ye’s somber face.
Qin Ye narrowed his slender eyes, his entire face dark and menacing, "What are you doing at my house?"
Rong Yan looked at Qin Ye, somewhat surprised by his return, she also realized this man exuded a strong presence, and he was quite handsome.
Especially now, with his stern face, his dangerousness seemed to increase by at least thirty percent.
Ms. Li was already somewhat intimidated by Qin Ye, and she hadn’t expected to encounter him at this moment.
Wasn’t he always away from home?
Why had he returned? Such bad luck.
"...I, I just wanted Rong Yan to come home for a bit, and she wouldn’t listen..."
Qin Ye’s mouth twitched slightly, his expression scornful, "She’s now my wife, why should she go to your house? Doesn’t she need to cook for me? Get lost... Don’t come here without reason in the future, or else don’t blame me for being unkind."
He held no respect for this mother-in-law, only disgust.
Ms. Li was infuriated, which son-in-law would treat his mother-in-law this way?
"She’s my daughter..."
"Who runs to their mother’s house all the time after getting married? Since I’m still in a good mood now, you better scram, otherwise, I won’t mind dealing with your two sons." Qin Ye’s eyes were good-looking but significantly frightening when they emitted a fierce glow.
Ms. Li was frightened.
Her two sons combined were not a match for this rogue; if it really came to a fight, her sons would only get beaten.
