Chapter 404 - Chapter 404 Chapter 404 Pigs Trotter
Chapter 404: Chapter 404 Pig’s Trotter Chapter 404: Chapter 404 Pig’s Trotter Xuexue took strides forward, looked at the full basin of food in Old Lady Mo’s hands, and couldn’t help but sneer inwardly, thinking how this old lady really dared to go all out for the sake of some food, not even caring about losing face in such a public setting.
Several women sighed in relief as soon as they saw Xuexue approaching; Old Lady Mo was too difficult to deal with, and they were somewhat unable to cope.
“Grandmother, what are you doing?” Xuexue pushed passed a few women gently and confronted Old Lady Mo, coldly scrutinizing her.
“Xuexue, you are just in time, take a look at these foul women. They have no sense of propriety at all. What’s wrong if this old woman takes some meat? I am your own grandmother, and they dare block me. Hurry up and tell them off; their behavior is outrageous, really,” Old Lady Mo burst into complaints as soon as she saw Xuexue, acting as if the wrongdoer was not her.
A little bit of meat? It added up to several dozens of kilograms, and several women felt very unjust about it.
Seeing their hesitance to speak, Xuexue waved her hands at them, indicating she already understood the situation.
“Grandmother, look, the neighbors are still eating, they haven’t finished yet, and you’ve taken dozens of kilograms off meat all at once. What will happen if there’s not enough left for them to eat?”
“If there isn’t enough, they can go back home and eat their own food. After all, this is the Mo family’s meat. I decide how much I take, why should I give it to those wretched paupers!” Old Lady Mo shamelessly justified her actions.
Xuexue coldly smiled and said, “Grandmother, what are you saying? Our Xie family is hosting a feast, inviting all the neighbors around. How has it become the Mo family’s?”
“What Xie family?” Old Lady Mo looked confused. “You are a descendant of our Mo family.”
“My mother is a woman who was divorced by her husband; now that she has her own household, it’s only natural we use her surname.”
“That wretched woman, how dare she!”
Old Lady Mo’s face turned fierce. Now that Madam Xie had become wealthy, she was thinking about making her reconcile with Mo Xiaoqiang.
Xuexue: “Whether my mother dares or not is not for Grandmother to decide. We have a household registration, and even if it went to the Yamen, we have all the proof.”
As soon as Xuexue mentioned this, Old Lady Mo regretted letting them leave the Mo family and escaping her control. They had become wealthy, yet it had nothing to do with the Mo family now, causing the Mo family to lose out on so much silver for nothing.
“Your father even said he wants to reconcile with your mother, and you’re still talking about setting up your own household?” Old Lady Mo switched her tone of speaking.
