Chapter 1201: Want to be lazy
Second Aunt Yu was stunned when she heard Yu Dong say that she wanted her to hand her more than three hundred taels.
" Three hundred taels! Why don't you just go ahead and rob the bank?" Second Aunt Yu was sure that Yu Dong was making fun of her but Yu Dong only sneered and then said, " What do you know? Ever since Yu Tong has been living in my house, she has been eating high-quality meat and wearing clothes that are not less than two taels. She works at the docks so it's normal for her clothes to be tattered.
Do you even have any idea how many pairs of clothes she has ruined?"
" There is also the matter of her getting sick along with the money that she takes in advance for Li Hanjing and his daughter. Who is going to pay the money back if she leaves? It's either you or her! Now please clear up the matter. Are you going to give me the money or not?"
When Second Aunt Yu heard how Yu Tong had wasted the money that was handed to her on Li Hanjing and his daughter, she was furious. She wanted to drag Yu Tong out and beat her up while asking who was her family, she was her mother and raised her until she became tall and strong, yet that woman did not care about her and was only thinking of those treacherous father and daughter.
What was more she was also eating and drinking well while her mother was having a hard time saving every penny that she earned. With Lin Tianhui living in their house, Second Aunt Yu felt like she was living a life worse than death.
How could this daughter of hers be like this?
When Yu Dong saw that Second Aunt Yu was not saying anything, she curled her lips in a disdainful smile and then said, " You see? You don't have the money nor the means to pay me back, Second Aunt. If that is the case then let your daughter work for me and pay me back on her own, once she is done paying back, then let's talk again?"
Second Aunt Yu pursed her lips, she wished she could throw three hundred taels on Yu Dong's face but Second Aunt Yu knew that it was impossible. At this moment she did not even have thirty taels much less three hundred!
" Don't be so happy! The higher one climbs the harder they fall!" Second Aunt Yu sneered coldly as she turned on her feet and then stormed away. Her expression was twisted and malevolent like she wanted to kill someone.
Many villagers took a look at Second Aunt Yu and then turned on their heels before rushing away.
They did not know who provoked Second Aunt Yu but they did not want to get entangled with that woman especially not when she looked like she wanted to eat someone.
Yu Dong saw the woman leave a storm of fury behind her and snorted in disdain. She had seen many women like Second Aunt Yu and knew how to deal with her because her mother in the apocalypse world was the same. She liked taking small advantage by using Yu Dong's identity but at the same time, she did not want to suffer any disadvantages.
She was greedy for small benefits and at the same time, she was strict with her children even when that woman was absent all the time while they were growing up.
Many times Yu Dong caught her mother telling her brothers that they should be filial to her even if she was not the one raising them. Her mother used all her money on research and things that she cared about but she did not take out a single penny for her and her brothers.
But when the time came she would stomp her foot and pretend to be their loving mother while suppressing Yu Dong. Explore more at empire
Yu Dong despised her mother and it wasn't long before she learned how to deal with that shameless woman.
Since Second Aunt Yu was the same, it was not difficult for Yu Dong to deal with her either.
" I am sorry, cousin Dong," Yu Tong was really embarrassed when she thought about how her mother caused trouble for Yu Dong and everyone else. They were supposed to leave fifteen minutes ago but because of her mother, they had to delay their work.
" It's fine," Yu Dong shook her head and patted Yu Tong on the back but then Yu Dong paused and she raised her head before taking a look at the back of Yu Tong's head. " Did I hit you too hard just now?"
Yu Dong knew that if she hadn't treated Yu Tong harshly then Second Aunt Yu would have never left in fact she would have used filial piety to suppress Yu Tong if that happened then her cousin would have to lower her head and listen to Second Aunt Yu no matter what.
Yu Tong shook her head. In fact, she was glad that Yu Dong had slapped her if she hadn't done that then her mother would have never left. Yu Tong knew how stubborn Second Aunt Yu could be when she wanted to act up.
Thus, Yu Dong's way of dealing with her mother was right.
" Let's go and finish the remaining work, cousin Dong. I am sure that our customers are waiting for us."
" You are thinking too much. How can the big officials wait for us?" Yu Dong tittered lightly as she walked inside the courtyard.
However, for the first time, she was very wrong.
" Hmm.. why isn't the mall open yet?"
A large group of customers were gathered outside the mall early in the morning.
Someone raised her head and then looked at the sky which was slowly brightening and then said, "What's going on? After the big opening does the boss want to get lazy? The other vegetable vendors are all up and about from five in the morning yet our boss is missing even when it is going to be eight."
