Chapter 266 - Chapter 266 Chapter 266 Taking Advantage
Chapter 266: Chapter 266: Taking Advantage Chapter 266: Chapter 266: Taking Advantage “Mom, why did you mess with that Plague God if it wasn’t necessary?”
Mo Daoyan was a bit unhappy. His mom as well; today, the whole family had been eating and taking things from the old residence. They had taken enough advantage already. Seeing them, he didn’t know how to be tactful, to hurry and get away when they could. Now that they had torn faces, they wouldn’t be given face the next time they wanted to take advantage of others, would they? Thinking of the dishes at the old residence, he couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. He had never enjoyed eating meat as much as he had that afternoon.
“It wasn’t me who provoked him! It was clearly them bullying their way to our door! Ah woo woo woo…” Recalling the two bags of rice and flour that Big Bull had carried away, Old Lady Mo was extremely pained. Damn it, the cooked duck had actually flown away.
“Seriously, why would that idiot throw you up there?” Mo Daoyan asked, looking up.
“It’s all because of those two bags of rice and flour you guys brought back from the old residence today. Damn it, I hadn’t even had time to warm them up before they snatched them back.”
“Mom, it’s not that I want to say this, but I had advised you to leave some rice for them to eat at night. You wouldn’t listen and insisted we carry it all back. Now, see, there’s no rice to cook tonight at the old residence. Given Xuexue’s temperament, it would be odd if she didn’t come to find trouble.”
Mo Daoyan felt somewhat angry that Old Lady Mo was greedy. Xuexue was not as weak as Madam Xie. The things he and his wife had worked so hard to move from the old residence had now gone to waste, like drawing water with a bamboo basket.
“Why should those good things be eaten by those cheap characters!” Old Lady Mo became angrier as she spoke, and suddenly stood up on the roof, making the entire roof shake. Terrified, she clumsily lay down on the roof, closing her eyes and crying out in misery, “Help! Help! Someone, please help this old maid!”
The neighbors at the gate, who were watching the commotion, finally understood that Old Lady Mo had emptied the residents’ grain supplies at the old residence, and Xuexue and Big Bull were merely taking back what was theirs.
Just now, they were discussing how Xuexue was too unfilial, both beating her grandmother and stealing items. It turns out, sometimes what you see is not necessarily the truth.
Seeing Old Lady Mo crying miserably on the roof, Old Master Mo was stunned for a moment before coming to his senses and scolded Aunt Sun who was beside him, “You short-sighted thing, aren’t you going to hurry up and bring a ladder over here to get your mother-in-law down?”
While Aunt Sun was secretly delighted to see Old Lady Mo so embarrassed, she was startled by Old Master Mo’s shout. Looking at him, she was totally confused, “Huh?”
“Go get the ladder! Are you deaf or what?”
Old Master Mo was furious. He roared again. Both of his sons and daughters-in-law were idly watching the spectacle, not bothering to bring over a ladder to help the matriarch down, which was utterly absurd.
Finally, they managed to get Old Lady Mo down from the roof.
