Chapter 270: The Shrew
This is about her precious daughter earning money for the Wang Family her whole life, serving as their lifelong maid! Pah! In their dreams!
"Hiss—You, what are you doing... Let go..." If it had been before Wang Laozhu had the stroke, Old Granny Zhang definitely wouldn’t have dared to lay a hand on him; she couldn’t beat him.
But now, even though Wang Laozhu had recovered somewhat, he was no match for Old Granny Zhang, who still did manual work every day. Before he knew it, he had two bloody scratches on his face and neck.
"You... You shrew!" Wang Laozhu, weak, could only try his best to protect his face.
"Yes! I am a shrew! Let me tell you, Wang Laozhu, you better abandon this notion quick. If I ever hear such talk again, expect a scratching every time!" Old Granny Zhang pinched Wang Laozhu a few more times before finally retracting her hand and standing with hands on hips.
"You..." Wang Laozhu wanted to say something, but moving made both his waist and face hurt.
Moreover, he did feel somewhat guilty. It was a bit of selfishness on his part; if his daughter was so capable, then she should stay with the Wang Family her whole life, assisting the Eldest Brother and the kids, making their lives prosperous, and bringing prosperity to the Wang Family. In the future, his ancestors would remember her contributions!
But after being scolded and scratched by Old Granny Zhang, he also felt this was indeed unreasonable, and most importantly, if he pushed his wife and daughter too far, they might just decide to separate from the family and live independently.
At that moment, Wang Laozhu recalled the look his daughter gave him, that mocking smile when he unconsciously frowned in disapproval; he couldn’t help but shiver.
Alas, I am old! Children and grandchildren have their own luck, and even if I plan for them my whole life, it’s no use if I can’t stand up for myself! Not to mention my daughter’s temperament and strength, cough cough, I should just focus on taking care of my health from now on!
Having thought this, Wang Laozhu grimaced, gingerly rubbing the bluish spot where his wife had pinched him, washed up haphazardly, and went to sleep.
