Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 502: Chapter 503: I’m Going to Slap Her

Chiang Xiao’s anger was mounting.

Her face was devoid of a smile, and with that indifferent expression, she indifferently asked Yang Dazhi, ”Uncle, do you mean that once Auntie has settled down, you’re planning to come and ransack our home, right?”

”This child, how can you speak like that...” Ge Liutao was somewhat embarrassed and softly patted Chiang Xiao.

Yang Dazhi was even more embarrassed by her counter-question and said uneasily, ”Chiang Xiao, your aunt... she has a bad temper, she’s always quarreling at home, and I can’t calm her down. Sometimes when she causes a fuss, I just do more work in the fields; as long as I avoid her, there won’t be any major issues.”

Avoid her and there won’t be any major issues?

Chiang Xiao found it ridiculous and countered again, ”Then why should we have to avoid her?”

Yang Dazhi was taken aback.

What other reason could there be? Of course, it was to avoid loss! It was also to avoid having to listen to her nasty words, and when she asked for money, again, there would be a loss of money.

Wasn’t he just worried that Second Uncle and his family would suffer a loss, and that’s why he came hurrying over to notify them?

Second Uncle’s family’s life had been improving lately, of course, he was very happy about it, but if all the money was taken by Chiang Qingshui, wouldn’t their life fall back into the previous hardship?

Yang Dazhi looked at Chiang Xiao, thinking she was still a child and did not understand these things.

He felt it was better to speak clearly with Chiang Songhai, so he turned back to Chiang Songhai and said, ”Second Uncle, I heard mother say that you’ve recently been going up Bai Gu Mountain to gather and sell mountain goods? Money isn’t easy to earn, it’s best to save as much as possible, and in the future, you need to support Chiang Xiao’s education, too. If Qingshui comes and takes away all the money, you all...”

would surely be devastated.

To be honest, Chiang Xiao was a bit grateful for Yang Dazhi’s kindness.

But regarding his thinking, Chiang Xiao could not agree.

True, she had no right to demand that Yang Dazhi stand up to Chiang Qingshui and prevent her from coming over to make trouble and demand money. However, his behavior in itself was tolerating Chiang Qingshui’s arrogance, as it was his step-by-step yielding that led Chiang Qingshui to believe she was so great, acting bossy at home and now wanting to act the same at their house.

”Little Little, what do you say?” Chiang Songhai looked at Chiang Xiao.

He had come to a realization—whatever Chiang Xiao said, they would follow.

Yang Dazhi was taken aback again, why ask Chiang Xiao again?

Chiang Xiao was quite satisfied with her grandfather’s newfound awareness. It was not built in a day to thaw ice three feet thick, and likewise, changing a pushover personality wouldn’t happen overnight. Now that Chiang Songhai was willing to let her handle everything was already commendable.

She looked at Yang Dazhi and counter-questioned again, ”Uncle, are you saying we should avoid Auntie when she comes to ransack our home, like we’re avoiding bandits and tyrants, right?”

Ah, spit, let’s clarify that. Tyrant refers to Meng Xinian; how could Meng Xinian be compared to Chiang Qingshui? Tyrant Meng was strong-willed, liking to take charge.

What does Chiang Qingshui count for?

Before Yang Dazhi could speak, Chiang Xiao had already continued, ”Speaking of which, no offense to you, Uncle, but frankly, why should we? Why should we not stay in our home to avoid her? And if she comes, why must we give her money?”

”But...”

Chiang Xiao cut him off, ”Since Uncle has come to give us a heads up, then I’ll also give Uncle a heads up in advance. If Auntie truly comes demanding money, making trouble, or smashing things, then I will directly grab something and slap her with it! Of course, you can also go back and tell her that. If she wants to come, I’ll be waiting right here.”
