Chapter 1250 - 1269: Taking Advantage
Zhang Fengmei listened for a while and couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh. No wonder she could make the mother-in-law curse up a storm! It turned out to be her sister-in-law.
Speaking of Jiang Meili, the elder sister-in-law of the Jiang family, she was definitely a more formidable character than Auntie Zhou Yongxia. As a child, she was always flirting and enticing the local village boys, and there were hardly any young men she hadn’t been involved with.
Later, she even ran away with the son of the neighboring village’s head, only coming back after giving birth to her eldest daughter. Zhang Fengmei, having married into the family later, heard all about this from her aunt-in-law who frequently cursed in the village when she had nothing else to do.
Anyway, when she entered the family, Jiang Meili often brought her daughter back home to take advantage, taking both food and goods. Later, to evade the birth control policy, her husband and she entrusted their second child to her sister-in-law to help raise, sending nearly half of their annual income as nutrition fees.
There were always supplies like milk powder and malted milk food cans; they always arrived carrying large and small packages.
Yet when Zhuanzhuan was brought back home, she was still thin as a monkey. Jiang Meili went around spreading that they were ingratitude personified, clueless about good deeds, taking massive advantage of their family.
The two families quarreled frequently over this, and coupled with their own extreme poverty, Jiang Meili stopped any exchanges once she saw no more benefits to gain. However, over the past year, Jiang Meili had started to shamelessly show up again, wailing and making scenes.
Zhang Fengmei was annoyed whenever she saw her.
The commotion at the door continued, Jiang Meili’s thick-skinned antics astonishing, drawing quite a crowd. Unable to bear listening further, and fearful that her mother-in-law might be at a disadvantage, Zhang Fengmei could only go outside. Once there, not only was Jiang Meili present, but her eldest daughter Wang Yunyun was there too.
