Chapter 45 Uninvited Guest
Chapter 45 Uninvited Guest
The Luo family kitchen was almost ready, and Liu Aihong was setting the table.
Ever since Liu Chunsheng went back to Luoning's house for a free meal and then promoted it, Liu Aihong's family has had high expectations for Luoning's cooking skills.
Liu Chunsheng's cousin, Liu Donglan, was quite excited; the moment of witnessing a miracle was about to arrive.
Just then, an uninvited guest arrived.
"You damned son of a bitch, you don't even call your mother when you're eating well!" The gaunt old lady Luo moved with lightning speed and arrived at the main house in the blink of an eye.
When she saw that there was only a plate of hot and sour cabbage on the table, her lips curled up in a disgusted expression. "I'm already here, why aren't you bringing out the meat yet!"
Luo Baiwan's heart sank lower and lower, and the veins on his forehead throbbed.
Liu Aihong was extremely anxious and kept trying to calm him down.
Liu Aiguo and Liu Aijia both looked rather grim, but being younger generations, they dared not make any rash moves.
Liu Aihong's mother, Old Lady Liu, didn't believe in this superstition. She stood up abruptly, picked up her cane, and walked towards Old Lady Luo.
Liu Aiguo was startled and rushed to help her.
"Get out of the way, don't get in my way!" Old Mrs. Liu slapped him away, afraid that she might accidentally hurt him. "Keep an eye on my son-in-law, no one is allowed to come up here!"
Liu Chunsheng and his grandchildren swallowed hard. Their grandmother was really amazing; she was as energetic as ever!
Although they didn't know what the milk looked like back then, they had heard their parents mention it.
Grandma was incredibly fierce when she was young. She held the top spot among the fiercest wives in the surrounding villages for many years, always admired and never surpassed.
The briskly elderly Liu pointed at the elderly Luo's nose and yelled, "Yu Laidi, you actually came to my daughter's house to freeload! You're blind as a bat! You've miscalculated!"
Liu Aijia felt as if she had returned to her childhood, to the years after her father's death when her mother was constantly fighting with others...
The two daughters-in-law of the Liu family were a little scared, because the old lady's temperament had already become gentle when they married into the family.
They had only heard that their mother-in-law was formidable, but had never actually met her.
Old Mrs. Liu lost her husband at a young age and raised her three children alone. She was known for her fiery temper and shrewish nature.
Grandma Luo's encounter with her today was the worst luck imaginable.
Hearing the commotion, Luo Ning, a bystander who ran out of the kitchen, muttered under her breath, "Grandma, they're just relying on being my grandma—"
Old Mrs. Liu sneered, "What grandma? Your grandma is buried in the ground! Yu Laidi, you old hag, you shameless bastard, you dare to bully my daughter! I'll beat you to death today!"
Not to be outdone, Old Lady Luo retorted defiantly, "Old hag Liu, my Juan'er said that that little whore Luo Ning brought back bags and bags of things. She's a member of the Luo family, so she should be filial to me!"
Luo Juan, Luo Ning knew, was the original owner's cousin.
The story of how, when he was four years old, he fell into a latrine and ate a bellyful of excrement, but was pulled out and, while burping, was told he could have another bowl, is still told in the village today.
She must give Luo Juan, who's lost her mind, a good talking-to when she has the chance; otherwise, how can she justify instigating Old Lady Luo to cause trouble on the day of her family reunion?
"You old widow, I'll fight you to the death!" Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Old Mrs. Liu threw down her cane, rolled up her sleeves, and charged at Old Mrs. Luo.
Daya is her precious darling; you can't bully her, and you absolutely can't curse Daya!
Although Grandma Liu lost her husband early in life, her children are very filial and always give her the best things, so she is well-nourished and in good health.
Grandma Luo was the complete opposite. She would feed her sons whenever she had a bite to eat, and give food to her grandsons as well. She was reluctant to eat or drink anything for herself. She was skinny and frail, and could be blown over by a gust of wind.
Liu Chunsheng's gaze unconsciously drifted towards Luo Ning. His older cousin's ability to add fuel to the fire was truly remarkable!
However, he was a little overwhelmed by the intense atmosphere.
Both old ladies are so old, should he go up and help them?
Okay, let's pull Grandma Luo away and let her give her a good beating to vent her anger. Keeping it inside will make her sick!
"Grandma, you must be tired, take a rest!" Before Grandma Liu reached Grandma Luo, Luo Ning put his arm around her waist and handed her a bowl of sweet soup as a reward.
If she weren't worried that Old Lady Luo would try to extort money from them after being beaten, she would have been happy to watch the show unfold.
But with her grandmother's fierce spirit, living to be a hundred years old would be no problem at all.
"Good! My granddaughter is so filial." Old Mrs. Liu was a little regretful that she hadn't gotten to the point where she was going to tear down Widow Yu, but since her granddaughter had spoken up, she decided to let Widow Yu off the hook.
The Liu family members immediately surrounded her, asking her about her health.
"I'm fine, don't worry!" Old Mrs. Liu waved her hand, turned around and saw that Luo Baiwan was sitting on the kang without any abnormality, and secretly felt relieved.
Grandma Luo, who had been squeezed to the side to dry, smelled the aroma of meat coming from the kitchen and ran outside.
Liu Aihong was frantic. The food was all in the kitchen, and the old lady would have surely eaten it all if she went in. What would the whole family eat?
Grandma Luo searched the kitchen but found nothing. It was really strange; she had clearly smelled the aroma of food just now.
It must be that prostitute Liu Aihong hiding. Once we find her, we'll definitely teach her a lesson!
Grandma Liu arrived quickly, followed by a large group of people; the scene was quite spectacular.
"You old widow, how dare you steal things, Chunsheng..." Old Mrs. Liu waved her hand and directly unleashed her ultimate weapon.
Grandma Luo was startled and hurriedly walked outside.
If she were falsely accused of stealing, Liu Chunsheng would take her away on the spot.
Zhang Wanhua, who was perched on the wall, saw Old Lady Luo come out and said with a sarcastic smile, "Oh, Auntie, you're leaving before you've even eaten?"
Grandma Luo's beady eyes darted around for a moment. "My eldest daughter-in-law will take it to my house later. I need to go back and check if my precious grandson has wet the bed!"
Suddenly, Liu's powerful voice rang out from behind her, "Yu Laidi, if you dare to come here again, I'll have Chunsheng arrest you!"
Grandma Luo shuddered, so frightened that her leg limped a little, and she hurriedly left.
Grandma Xie, who had just walked near the Luo family's house, happened to witness this scene and turned away.
Xie Changmin, beaming with joy, pulled Xie's mother forward, saying, "Mom, let's hurry, or the Luo family will eat all the good stuff!"
"Eat, eat, eat! All you know is eating!" Old Mrs. Xie, who was full of resentment, picked up her cane and slapped Xie Changmin a few times to vent her anger.
The two daughters-in-law were saying that this brat insisted on bringing her along, and she almost got beaten up as a result.
Xie Changmin was furious that he not only didn't get a good meal, but was also beaten. He snatched Xie Laotai's cane, threw it on the ground, and ran out of the village.
Zhang Wanhua, who was watching the commotion from the wall, pouted. When she saw Liu Aihong coming out of the kitchen, she was overjoyed. "Auntie, your in-laws came and went. What delicious food did you make today? It smells so good! Can I have some to try?"
Liu Aihong's expression turned cold. She was secretly relieved to find that Old Lady Luo was gone, and she pretended not to know that Old Lady Xie was not coming in.
"There's nothing good to eat, we're so poor we can't even afford to cook!"
"There are only five people in my family, how much can we possibly eat! So stingy!" Zhang Wanhua sneered, clinging to the wall and refusing to come down.
In the blink of an eye, another uninvited guest arrived.
