Chapter 142: Courage and Color
Old Granny Zhang looked at Lady Jiang’s behavior that seemed beneath dignity, and it frustrated her. She had been hoping to give the third branch of the family a leg up to suppress the first branch, but she didn’t expect the third branch to be so disappointing, failing to seize the opportunity given to them.
She could only wave her hands dismissively, "Forget it, forget it, just roll back to your room, you’re like the mud that won’t stick to the wall!"
As she spoke, she planned to pick up the basket packed with thank-you gifts.
However, Wang Yongzhu beat her to it. Ever since she took that Power Pill, she could even kick stones around, let alone carry a basket, a piece of cake!
A smile spread across Old Granny Zhang’s lips. Her daughter was showing her filial piety, indeed. She didn’t realize that Wang Yongzhu had become incredibly strong; she just worried that her daughter, who had always been pampered, had never done such heavy work before: "Oh my dear, I know you want to show your filial duty, but you’ve never done such heavy work. Put it down, let me do it. Don’t sprain your back!"
As she said this, she attempted to take the basket from her.
Wang Yongzhu brushed off Old Granny Zhang’s hands and stepped forward, heading outside, "Mother, it’s fine, I can carry it. Let’s go."
The mother and daughter walked away warmly arm in arm.
It wasn’t until the figures of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were out of sight that Lady Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and headed towards Laosan’s House’s side room.
