But Fang Pingying had barely taken a step when Zhou Yuni grabbed her, "Fang Pingying, now that you’ve made so money after going out, do you think you’ve grown wings or what? You are a daughter-in-law of the Luo Family. When sothing happens to the Luo Family, you need to take care of it, and besides, Fang Xiu is your sister."
Fang Pingying hadn’t even spoken yet when Luo Zhiyong stepped forward to hold back Zhou Yuni, his face pale with anger as he looked at her, "Mom, I’ve made it very clear at ho about the money. Are you really trying to start a fight?"
He had said at ho if Zhou Yuni asked Fang Pingying for money here, it would make life impossible for him and Fang Pingying. He thought he had scared her off at ho, but as soon as they got here, she just didn’t care at all.
Such a mother really chilled Luo Zhiyong’s heart, ti and ti again it was like this, as if Zhiming was her own flesh and blood and he was just picked up sowhere.
Zhou Yuni naturally understood what Luo Zhiyong ant, but the more it was like this, the more upset she beca. Luo Zhiyong actually tried to protect Fang Pingying by scaring her.
She glanced at Luo Zhiyong with annoyance, "Don’t forget your family after you’ve married a wife. Since your wife ca, the money she sends back every month... I haven’t even settled the score with her yet."
"What score are you settling, are you short of money for the month or what?" Luo Zhiyong’s expression grew colder as he looked at her.
Zhou Yuni was too busy to look at Luo Zhiyong, instead, she turned to Fang Pingying and said, "With just that little bit of money, it’s not even enough to give to beggars, to think you even claim it was instructed by her. I think your wife has bewitched you, wishing to abandon and your dad in the countryside, while you two enjoy the high life here."
"If you keep talking like this, then I will really do it. I won’t send money anymore, do whatever you want." Luo Zhiyong, having nothing more to say, pulled Fang Pingying to leave, "Pingying, let’s go. Tomorrow go handle your own business, I’ll go back to the military, and we won’t deal with this ss anymore."
"Pingying, stop right there." Li Yuchun intervened again, blocking their way, and asked Fang Pingying, "Do you really not want to give the money for Xiu’er?"
Fang Pingying snorted coldly, "Even if I had it, I would rather give it to a beggar than help them with this kind of money."
"You..." Li Yuchun gritted her teeth, resorting to a harsh tactic, "Then consider it repaying all the years the the Fang Family supported you, for raising you until you were in your twenties, asking you for US$ 500 isn’t too much, is it?"
Although Fang Pingying had always known Li Yuchun wasn’t good to her, and could never be compared to her own daughter Fang Xiu, Li Yuchun asuring their years of relationship with money truly broke her heart.
She had initially planned to leave with Luo Zhiyong, but Li Yuchun’s words montarily stopped her in her tracks.
Then she slowly turned around, looking at Li Yuchun, "Do you really want to settle it like this?"
Seeing Fang Pingying’s expression, Fang Xiu secretly tugged at Li Yuchun, whispering, "Mom... I’m still working for my eldest sister, don’t overdo it with your words."
Li Yuchun didn’t think she was being excessive at all, she t Fang Pingying’s gaze, "What’s excessive? I’m stating facts. Our family has supported you with good food and a roof over your head for years. Now asking you for just this little bit of money, how is that considered too much?"
"If you really want to settle it like that, then let’s calculate how exactly you have provided with good food all these years." Fang Pingying began recounting her life at the Fang Family, "Since I was six, I not only had to do chores at ho but also follow you to the fields. You only handled tasks outside, while I had to manage both inside and outside, including looking after Fang Xiu."
"By the age of ten, you only let study for a little over two years before forcing to quit school, and then I was the one taking care of all the household chores and working in the fields just as well."
"At sixteen, I was basically doing all the farming work alone, even physically demanding tasks like carrying grain. You three sat at ho and waited for to co back and cook for you. Is this what you call being well taken care of?"
After Fang Pingying finished speaking, she coldly glared at Li Yuchun, "I should say I’ve been like a live-in maid for twenty-one years, with at least fifteen years of that as a maid and servant. It’s already generous of not to ask for a salary, and now you’re asking for money?"
"Let make this clear today, from now on, whether it’s the Fang Family or the Luo Family, I won’t shortchange the money that rightly belongs to , but not a di more. I would rather burn the money than let you have any part of it."
"As for the matter with Zhiming," seeing Luo Zhiming and recalling he was the one who brought all these people, including Xu He, Fang Pingying’s anger reached its peak,
She suddenly slamd the food she brought for them to eat against the wall, and then shouted furiously at Luo Zhiming, the instigator of this ss,
"Luo Zhiming, I’m giving you one night, if you don’t show up at the bus stop near the timber factory by 8 AM tomorrow, I’m going straight to the Police Station; I’m tired of dealing with these issues every day."
"The two of you do whatever you want. After I report to the Police Station tomorrow, I’ll leave, and I’ll also close up the shop. Fang Xiu, Luo Zhiming, behave yourselves. If you dare to incite them to ask for money again, Fang Xiu, don’t bother coming to work at my shop ever again. Do whatever you please; I’m cutting ties with you all."
After speaking, Fang Pingying couldn’t be bothered with the stunned crowd in the room and stord out with Luo Zhiyong.
The remaining people inside the house looked at each other, not knowing what to say, but clearly, they wouldn’t be getting any money now; things had escalated to physical actions.
After a while, Zhou Yuni, looking distressed at the ruined food, sighed, "This is truly terrible; our Luo Family married such a Biaozi."
While walking on the road, because Fang Pingying was storming ahead angrily, Luo Zhiyong did not speak and just followed behind her.
After returning to the shop, Fang Pingying’s anger finally subsided a bit. Rembering that they hadn’t eaten yet, she regretted smashing the food and muttered, "That really was a waste of temper; that food cost several dollars; we should have just brought it back to eat."
The atmosphere, initially very serious, was lightened by Fang Pingying’s comnt, prompting Luo Zhiyong to chuckle, "Should we go back and pick up the food while they haven’t recovered from the shock?"
Knowing Luo Zhiyong was trying to make her laugh, Fang Pingying glared at him, "Forget it, let’s just cook ourselves tonight. Hong Lan bought so groceries this morning; there are still so left in the kitchen."
Luo Zhiyong silently watched her, not saying a word. After a long pause, he suddenly reached out his hands to Fang Pingying and tenderly called out, "Wife, co here."
Fang Pingying, not knowing why, still walked over to him.
As soon as Fang Pingying approached, Luo Zhiyong tightly embraced her, his voice filled with deep affection, "You’ve never told before about how hard those years at your parent’s house were."
