Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 1926 - 1927: Female Intellectual Youth Passerby 69
Zhang Yu was fishing by the river when she heard a familiar voice and looked up at the bridge above.
Wow, this luck is unbelievable. Came out to fish and ended up running into a few people from the Wang Family.
Seems like they are arguing. If she hadn’t encountered them, it’d be fine, but since she has, there’s no way she can miss this.
Zhang Yu, of course, couldn’t keep fishing; she immediately rushed below the bridge to listen.
Upon listening, she realized that last night Wang Yan really did leave overnight and took the rice with her before disappearing.
Hearing this, Wang Yan could immediately be certain that the guy must have gone to the black market. It’s just uncertain if she’ll be implicated.
Listening further, she grinned. The Wang Family is indeed full of selfishness, complaining about how Wang Yan could steal from the family, and the Wang Family’s eldest brother and elder sister also blamed each other, all sorts of selfishness.
Zhang Yu rolled her eyes speechlessly, wondering why they were blaming each other when they were all selfish themselves.
Never mind, it’s fine if they’re causing a ruckus. In her past life, they were more or less feeding off the original owner indirectly. This time, let’s see how they manage to stay harmonious.
As she kept listening, Zhang Yu’s expression became serious when she heard them mention her name.
Only then did she realize this wasn’t a so-called chance encounter; they’d gone to her house, wanting to ask if Wang Yan had delivered the grains there.
Wang Yan could bet they wanted to blow up the matter and make her compensate for the rice. As for where Wang Yan went, they simply didn’t care and wouldn’t be concerned.
"Really heartless." Zhang Yu originally wanted to continue listening, but Father Wang had walked a long way ahead, turned back, and found that the others hadn’t followed. He returned and heard these idiots arguing right there on the bridge.
This really pissed Father Wang off. He directly and harshly scolded them, "Do you think this is something you should be proud of?"
"Should I get each of you a loudspeaker so you can have a proper argument on the street?" Father Wang glared fiercely at Mother Wang.
It’s all this fool’s fault, otherwise, how could these kids be so stupid if they didn’t have a stupid mom?
The more Father Wang thought about it, the angrier he got, saying in front of the kids, "When you get married in the future, make sure not to marry someone as foolish as your mom."
"Otherwise, I really worry you’ll also be angered half to death by your kids in the future." Father Wang didn’t care how his words would make the kids see Mother Wang.
"Your mom is really stupid. I should have listened to your grandparents back then and not married her."
Zhang Yu almost burst out laughing. She knew how Mother Wang always went along with Father Wang’s wishes, regardless of how unreasonable he was, never saying a bad word about him.
Yet here was a man who didn’t care about giving her any face, saying such things on the main road in front of the children.
What a pity, Zhang Yu lamented, even though she was on the scene, she could only hear their voices, not see their expressions.
She really wanted to know if Mother Wang was so angry she was about to vomit blood. Probably, Wang Yan had mentioned once that every time Mother Wang got angry at Father Wang, she didn’t dare vent her anger at the rest of the kids, only taking it out on Wang Yan with various beatings and scoldings to vent her dissatisfaction.
It wasn’t the first time hearing Father Wang call her stupid, but never had he so seriously said it in front of the kids.
Mother Wang was so angry her face turned red, and Father Wang looked at her, "Why? Did I say anything wrong? Aren’t you stupid enough to die?"
Father Wang got even more agitated, "If you knew how to raise kids, would the house be in such chaos?"
"Would Wang Yan have done such a thing?"
"And you kept saying you hadn’t rested well, slept poorly. Since your rest wasn’t well, how come you didn’t hear anything when Wang Yan left last night?"
"If you had heard anything, would Wang Yan have taken the stuff?" Father Wang got angry just thinking about it.
"Yeah, Mom, didn’t you always say you don’t sleep well at night?" Eldest Brother Wang chimed in, "Mom, how come you didn’t hear anything yesterday?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"If you had heard something, this wouldn’t have happened." Upon hearing this, Sister Wang also joined in criticizing Mother Wang.
As the eldest brother and sister started blaming Mother Wang, the younger kids also began criticizing Mother Wang without holding back.
Wow, Zhang Yu really didn’t expect Mother Wang’s position in the family to be so low.
At that moment, she finally understood why Mother Wang’s attitude towards Wang Yan was the worst. The reason was simple: in the Wang Family food chain, she was the second to last.
If she didn’t blame Wang Yan, who else could she vent her dissatisfaction on and find her position in the family?
Mother Wang didn’t expect that Father Wang’s criticism of her would find agreement with the other kids, all of them criticizing her one after another.
Mother Wang became unsure, "I, I was a bit tired yesterday."
"Yes, I really was a bit tired and didn’t respond."
"I really don’t rest well usually." Mother Wang struggled to defend herself.
"Yeah, it’s never your fault when something happens." Father Wang said irritably, "Since you rest well, you find a way to cover the rice shortage at home."
"The sons and daughters all promised someone, this shortage you must cover." Father Wang recalled the matter the sons and daughters had brought up before, sigh, as tricky as can be, directly letting the wife handle it.
Mother Wang was stunned, looking incredulously at the man, "What, what did you say, asking me to cover this shortage, do you know how much money it would take?"
"How would I know?" Father Wang stated that the money had to come from Mother Wang herself.
Mother Wang was shocked, "I, I don’t have money."
Father Wang sneered, "Don’t you still have money to give to your natal family? You can go ask them for money."
Ask her natal family for money? How dare she go back to ask for money, "It wasn’t my family that had trouble, I just lent them money. You’re telling me to go ask them for money now? They can’t repay that money..."
Father Wang snorted, "Why are you telling me this? Anyway, you’ve got to sort it out."
"I’m telling you, if you keep thinking about your natal family every day, just go flat out and live back at your natal home." Father Wang had long been unwilling to tolerate it anymore.
Mother Wang immediately panicked upon hearing this, tears flowed immediately, grabbing Father Wang’s hand like when she was young, but she didn’t think, back then she was young and beautiful, and Father Wang was pleased with everything.
But now her face and hands were wrinkled, Father Wang found her disgusting to look at, "You’re really disgusting, beat it."
After saying that, Father Wang turned around and walked away, too lazy to look at her.
Mother Wang watched as the man walked away like that, constantly wiping her tears, turning to look at the eldest son and daughter, "I, your mom, have no money..."
She thought of letting the two kids help financially, otherwise, they should forget about the promised matters.
"Mom, you said you had money to give to grandpa and them, why." Sister Wang was also dissatisfied with Mother Wang’s behavior, "I already promised my partner, Mom, hurry up."
Eldest Brother Wang immediately followed up, "Mom, I’m non-negotiable if you don’t have a grandson soon; it’s all waiting on you."
