Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies-Chapter 127 - 123: First, Get a Basin of Dishwater
Chapter 127: Chapter 123: First, Get a Basin of Dishwater
Luo Jinhua’s father was named Luo Fangzhong.
He was the personnel director of the electronic equipment factory and held significant authority.
Furthermore, Luo Jinhua’s own mother, Wan Limei, was the workshop director of the food factory, so their family always lived quite impressively, always held in high esteem wherever they went.
Even when visiting someone else’s house, they were always treated as guests of honor.
Now, unlike before, they had knocked on the door for quite some time, yet no one had come to open it.
This made the couple’s anger rise steadily.
Luo Fangzhong was just as furious as his wife if not more, but having been a leader for so long, he could still suppress his anger.
"Don’t speak carelessly, be mindful, and don’t forget what we’re here for."
If it weren’t for their only son, they would never have humbled themselves like this in their lives.
It was quite displeasing to them.
"Knock a few more times; they will definitely come to open the door."
Wan Limei thought of her son, locked up, and her rationality returned.
No matter, for her son’s sake, she would swallow this bitterness today, believing that one day, this family would beg them for favors.
Taking a deep breath, she resumed a gentle smile and knocked on the door ...
"Is Rong Family’s Sister-in-law home?"
What was Madam Rong doing? She was washing dishes!
Unhurriedly ... knowing exactly why that shameless couple was at the door, she was in no rush.
Qin Yu was helping nearby ...
Aunt Jin from next door came out first, and upon seeing Luo Fangzhong and his wife, she was ready to turn back.
However, Luo Fangzhong, quick-eyed, promptly called out to her, "Sister-in-law, do you know if the Rong Family’s elder sister-in-law is home? Why has no one come despite such long knocking?"
Although Aunt Jin disapproved of Luo Fangzhong, considering her son was still working at the same factory,
she didn’t show excessive disapproval and simply said, "I don’t know."
She then went straight back into her yard and closed the door.
Luo Fangzhong’s expression instantly darkened.
Look at the kind of people living here! A bunch of ignorant old women.
Just as Wan Limei was about to lose her temper after knocking for so long, the door suddenly opened.
"Rong Family’s Sister-in-law...." Wan Limei hadn’t even finished speaking when she saw Teng Rong turn her back and walk away.
The couple’s newly brightened smiles instantly froze on their faces.
What did this old woman mean?
They had personally come to her doorstep, and yet this old woman had the audacity to turn away dismissively.
Luo Fangzhong used a stern look to signal his wife to go in together.
They were here today to discuss matters, despite the hostile attitude, they could not leave.
Just as they were stepping into the courtyard, the offensive old woman came back, this time with a basin in her hand.
The couple suddenly had a very bad feeling.
Just as they thought to step back, it was already too late... The water from the basin was thrown directly at them.
And to think, they never expected that this old woman would dare to douse them with water.
Wait, this isn’t just ordinary water—it seems like... dishwater?
The cold and foul smell drove the couple insane.
Wan Limei screamed in agitation, "Teng Rong, you vile woman, I’ll fight you to the end..."
She recklessly charged inside... but Madam Rong had been waiting for this moment. She tossed aside the empty wooden tub and took another tub of water from Qin Yu’s hands, splashing it straight at the intruder.
"Ah..." Wan Limei screamed, then shuddered from the cold. In such freezing weather, getting doused with cold water was nearly killing her.
Madam Rong’s basin was considerately taken by Qin Yu.
With her hands now free and on her hips, she cursed fiercely,
"Get lost, you scum. Dare to show up here again, and believe it or not, I’ll break your legs?"
"Teng... Teng Rong, I... I’ll kill you... Achoo..." Wan Limei was now too frozen to utter a complete sentence.
"Kill me?" Madam Rong stood hands on hips, her presence daunting, "Come on then! I’m standing right here, let you kill me. Don’t chicken out..."
Wan Limei: ...
Luo Fangzhong looked at this arrogant figure before him, his eyes venomous, though he quickly concealed it.
"... Sister-in-law Rong, we’re here to talk..."
Madam Rong glared back, "Don’t talk to me, and I’ve got nothing to discuss with you. Whatever sentence your son deserves, he’ll receive. Don’t expect any letter of forgiveness from us. What kind of parents raise such a son? Clearly, the likes of you!"
Luo Fangzhong’s face turned ashen, "Don’t be too excessive. My son really didn’t do anything wrong... Besides, your mother-in-law accepted a marriage gift of 200 yuan from our family—that’s a fact..."
"What the hell are you bluffing about? Take your 200 yuan marriage gift and marry someone else. What does that have to do with my family? Who doesn’t know we haven’t been dealing with that side for years? And which family discusses a marriage proposal not with the girl’s parents but with another split-off family? You’re truly a piece of work!
"You gave that side the money, so go marry Rong Manman! She’s still unmarried. My daughter has nothing to do with them. And my daughter is already married. If you dare slander my daughter again, I’ll make a scene at both your workplaces and talk to your bosses, claiming you defy the police and cause trouble at our house." freewebnøvel.com
The faces of Luo Fangzhong and Wan Limei shifted from green to white.
They cared about their son, but their own jobs were even more important to them.
Madam Rong wanted to continue berating them, but considering it might outrage the old man inside to spit blood, it wasn’t worth it.
It’s really unnecessary for these black-hearted people... not worth it.
"Get out now, don’t dirty the doorstep of my house. And if you don’t leave, I’ll head to your workplace right now."
Luo Fangzhong indeed feared she’d cause a scandal at his workplace.
After all, it was a fact that his son was locked up, a fact unknown yet. If word got out, the shame and losses would be borne solely by the Luo Family.
"Sister-in-law Rong, give others a way out, and we’ll meet under better circumstances in the future. If you write a letter of understanding, we’re willing to lend you 500 dollars."
Madam Rong was livid upon hearing this, picking up a broom from the side.
"Think your rotten money makes you great? Scram now, or I’ll cause a stir at your workplace!"
She charged with the broom, ready to strike.
Seeing trouble, Qin Fangzhong turned tail and fled.
Seeing her husband run, Wan Limei hurriedly followed... Being assaulted by this madwoman would be disastrous.
Madam Rong watched their retreating figures in disarray and spat, "What trash."
The commotion attracted neighbors, with Aunt Jin asking, "What in the world happened here?"
And the others listened intently.
Madam Rong wasn’t about to hide anything.
The more she kept the story secret, the more twisted it might get.
So she somewhat embellished and shared the story.
