Chapter 205: Rough Man vs. Pretty Widow 13
"Yeah, you know I'm a lunatic, but you still come to mess with me. Don't you know I just got out of a mental hospital?"
She confronted Meng Caihe angrily. The girl who followed her looked older than her. When she saw Meng Caihe being beaten, she immediately rolled up her sleeves and prepared to fight back.
But Meng Caihe stopped him, "Wait, fighting back and forth is just making a fool of yourself."
"Mom, she is being extremely rebellious! How can a daughter hit her mother? She will be struck by lightning."
After thinking for a while, Meng Jiaojiao finally remembered who this woman was.
The original owner had only met his sister-in-law, Bai Sisi, once in his previous life. At the beginning, it was because the original owner's brother wanted to marry her but did not have enough money for the bride price, so Meng Caihe hurriedly married her to the half-dead Song Daping, and used her 200 yuan bride price to marry this woman for her brother.
A typical family of vampires.
Meng Caihe was probably slapped into silence by her. She covered her face, took a step back, and said with a squinting look:
"Since you have already left Daping's house, why don't you go home? A widow running around in the middle of the night, aren't you afraid of being gossiped about?"
"You've said too much gossip about me. I don't have time to listen. Let me say it again. You sold me for two hundred dollars. Now I have nothing to do with you. Don't mess with me."
Her stomach was growling with hunger and she was in no mood to deal with these two people, so she turned her head and walked into the restaurant.
Meng Caihe followed behind and yelled, "What do you mean by 'sold'? How can you talk like that? I married you because I thought he could afford the 200 yuan gift and that his family was well off. Who knew he would be such a short-lived ghost?"
Meng Jiaojiao was too lazy to listen to her and walked straight into the restaurant.
Behind her, Bai Sisi whispered maliciously in Meng Caihe's ear: "Mom, look at the bag she's holding. It's from the clothing store next door. We've seen it. The clothes inside are at least a dozen yuan each. She bought two pieces, so she must have a lot of money."
Hearing this, Meng Caihe really looked at the bag in her hand, and then glanced at the restaurant. The villagers couldn't afford to eat there once a year, but she just walked in so casually.
She stomped her foot and followed him in, not caring who was in the restaurant and started cursing.
"You stupid girl, you have money but you don't know how to respect your mother. You just care about your own happiness."
Song Yuanzhou and the other two looked at her.
Faintly, he heard the girl next to him whisper to Song Yuanzhou: "Brother Yuanzhou, why doesn't that girl recognize her mother? Her mother is so pitiful."
Song Yuanzhou glanced at Meng Jiaojiao's impatient expression and did not answer.
Knowing that Song Yuanzhou had always wanted to draw a line between them and her, Meng Jiaojiao didn't even bother to raise her eyes. She waved to call the waiter, pointed at the delicious dishes over there and said weakly:
"Give me another portion of what that table ordered, quickly. It's bad luck for everyone if they starve to death."
The waiter was stunned for a moment before he realized what she meant and couldn't help laughing: "Okay miss, I'll serve you the food right away."
After saying this, he looked at Meng Caihe and the others who followed him in and asked, "Are they with you?"
Meng Jiaojiao waved her hand and said, "I don't know them. They can't afford it. Let them go."
Meng Caihe said "Hey" and sat down in front of her.
"I'm her mother! If she can afford it, so can I!"
Bai Sisi also sat down: "Jiaojiao, girls can't be so selfish. How come you don't even recognize your mother after getting married? Mom just didn't have a meal yet. Since we met, let's have a meal together."
Meng Jiaojiao drank some tea to fill her stomach while casually replying, "You are not selfish. Return my betrothal gift to me."
Bai Sisi's defense was instantly broken, "That was the betrothal gift my mother gave me, why should I return it to you!"
Meng Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows: "So, this is the dish I ordered and I paid for it, why should I let you eat it?" After that, she made a shameful gesture with her fingers: "Hey, how shameless."
Meng Caihe slammed the table and stood up angrily. She put her hands on her waist for a long time before she held back her anger and pointed at her:
"Meng Jiaojiao! You are so rebellious! Let me tell you, if you are a widow without your family to rely on, you will be laughed at by others in the future! Don't beg me to save face for you in the future!"
After she finished speaking, she took Bai Sisi and left. Before leaving, the two of them glared at her fiercely.
The waiter had had enough of the show and went into the kitchen with the order.
Song Yuanzhou next to her was still looking in her direction, but his eyes were out of focus and it was unclear what he was thinking.
Meng Jiaojiao glared at him unhappily and fiddled with her chopsticks angrily.
Then he heard the girl next to him whisper to him: "How rude! Why did she stare at you? You can tell at a glance that she is a country girl with no manners."
The middle-aged man next to him frowned and scolded, "Yingying! Don't talk nonsense. Every family has its own problems. Don't comment on others without knowing it."
The girl named Yingying pouted and pulled at Song Yuanzhou's clothes like a spoiled child.
"Brother Yuanzhou, look at my dad, he always speaks in favor of others!"
Song Yuanzhou pulled back his shirt hem carelessly, his expression indifferent: "Your father is right. Don't judge others casually if you don't know. This behavior is not polite."
These words surprised both of them. Song Yuanzhou usually never spoke for anyone, but a strange woman was actually worthy of his criticism.
So they all unconsciously turned their eyes to look at the girl who was eating a large table of food alone.
She didn't pay much attention to her image while eating, but she wasn't the inexperienced country girl they had just thought. Even when she was extremely hungry, she ate slowly and in small bites.
I don't care whether the dishes suit my taste or not, I just pick out all the onions and garlic, not even the finely chopped ones.
It was at this glance that Song Yuanzhou's gaze suddenly froze and his brows unconsciously frowned.
In her previous life, she obviously loved onions and garlic, and ate them almost with every meal. She always ate voraciously and would not allow others to take even a bite of the dishes she liked.
Why has everything changed in this life?
He was so preoccupied with things that he lost the appetite to eat. The two people next to him finally noticed that something was wrong with him.
"Yuanzhou, what's wrong?"
"Brother Yuanzhou, are you feeling unwell?"
Song Yuanzhou came back to his senses and looked over there again. Seeing that she was almost done eating, he curled the corners of his mouth.
"No, have you finished eating? Do you need me to take you home?"
The girl immediately spoke excitedly, but was stopped by the middle-aged man next to her.
"No need. It just happened today. You still have to go home to take care of your mother. We'll leave first."
Song Yuanzhou did not refuse, nodded, pulled out a chair and personally escorted them to the car.
Meng Jiaojiao kept waiting after she had eaten. She didn't know where they had so much to say. After the girl got in the car, she rolled down the window and kept talking to Song Yuanzhou. Looking at her from behind, Song Yuanzhou nodded from time to time.
Not knowing when she would finish, she simply leaned back in her chair and took a nap.
This was the scene Song Yuanzhou saw when he turned around and came in. She tilted her head slightly, her lips slightly parted, and her regular breathing could be heard. She was obviously asleep.
