Chapter 379: Are You Harmful or Not?
Chapter 379: Chapter 379: Are You Harmful or Not?
Suizi wasn’t the type to attack without cause. She would never target someone for no reason.
So, Yu Jingting understood from her attitude that the Factory Director must have offended her.
Suizi snorted, that was exactly the case.
The new house that was allotted to her was next to the Factory Director’s.
Wang Cuihua was a warm-hearted person who loved making friends. After moving into the new house, she immediately gained a rapport with the neighbors.
She went from house to house, distributing her special homemade pickles.
She also gave some to the Factory Director’s house.
The Factory Director’s wife extravagantly praised the taste of the countryside and the superb cooking skills of Wang Cuihua.
But as soon as Wang Cuihua left, she dumped all the pickles into the trash can.
There was a cement trash bin at every street corner where everyone threw their trash.
Suizi happened to be throwing out trash when the Factory Director’s wife dumped her pickles. She was just behind her and clearly heard her say, "Heh, villagers".
This remark immediately infuriated Suizi.
The pickled cabbage the monkey-like woman dumped was carefully made by her mother-in-law. It was a delicious dish that required six complicated steps to make.
It was the taste of home that Yu Shuisheng had to try whenever he returned home.
The taste of motherly love that Yu Jingting and Jiaojiao grew up with.
And it was the dish that Suizi had worked hard to learn, attempting to carry on this culinary legacy-
What was being thrown away wasn’t just pickles.
It was her mother-in-law’s goodwill that had been thrown away.
It was unbearable.
What further irked Suizi was that after mocking the "villagers," the monkey spirit woman assumed a hypocritical expression when she saw Suizi. Pretending to be friendly, she asked from which family Suizi was related, as she had never seen her before.
"How did you answer her?" Yu Jingting asked.
"I pointed at the pickles in the trash can and said, I am from the house where you threw these pickles."
After saying that, she dumped her garbage and left without looking back.
Yu Jingting burst into laughter.
It wasn’t easy to make his gentle wife lose her temper on the spot.
When she returned home, Suizi poured out everything like spilling beans to her mother-in-law. The mother and daughter-in-law condemned them for half an hour.
After cussing, Wang Cuihua felt comfortable and dismissed them. Afterwards, she only went through the motions in her interactions with them, not willing to form deep ties once she knew what kind of people they were.
But Suizi simply couldn’t.
If her mother-in-law was like a tornado, coming and going quickly, then she was a light autumn wind that keeps going on and on, blowing every time she remembered.
To offend her was to incur a long-standing grudge, commonly known as being petty.
"We need to see the essence through the phenomenon. If the Factory Director hadn’t expressed so much animosity and spoken ill of you to his wife at home, would she ever slight us?"
Enraged over the slights, Suizi held a grudge against the entire family of the Factory Director.
"Sheesh, why do I remember that the wife I married was a gentle woman? Who is this little fairy spirit who’s possessed my wife?"
Yu Jingting teased while grabbing her little chin and tried to give her a naughty bite in order to "inspect" her more closely.
"Humph!" Suizi pushed him away, and retorted, "Gentleness and weakness are two different concepts. Being gentle means being tolerant, being reserved, but that doesn’t mean they can cross the line, and bully my family members."
"You women are incredibly petty, only somewhat larger than a soybean." Just as Yu Jingting said this, his gaze fell upon something on Suizi’s table and he immediately straightened up.
Before Suizi could cover it, he’d seen it.
They were already too late to hide it.
"What’s this?!" Yu Jingting quickly grabbed the photograph on her table.
A man’s photograph!
Yu Jingting examined the photograph critically from top to bottom, it was so sickening it could knock his teeth out.
"Where did this big square face come from? Looks like the incarnate of a Mahjong tile?"
Suizi snatched away the photo, carefully tucked it under a book.
"This is the lead actor from the popular drama, don’t you see our mom watching it every night?"
The aesthetic taste of this era was different from the future, they preferred broad-square faces and bushy eyebrows, believing that such men possessed an air of righteousness.
"What are you doing with this?" Yu Jingting remembered this Mahjong-face as soon as Suizi mentioned: indeed, a male star.
No matter what it was, there should be no photos of other males on his wife’s desk. If there were any, it should only be him and his kids!
"Doing this has my own purpose, and I won’t tell you."
Yu Jingting’s face turned green and immediately visualized his beautiful wife alone, fondling the white-faced actor’s photo, and perhaps even kissing it!
Unbelievable!
Just as he was about to give Suizi a lesson, Xiaoli knocked at the door.
"Director, it’s time for the meeting."
Suizi stood up at the call, and before leaving, she warned Yu Jingting:
"You better not touch my photo while I’m away!"
Not touch it? Yeah right!
Yu Jingting pretended to read the newspaper until Suizi left, then he revealed his jealous face.
"Thinking about ogling at this nonsense, white-faced boy, who is less handsome and surely smaller than me?"
She really thought I’m a pushover?
Yu Jingting’s eyes fell on the pen on the desk, very good.
It’s time to show some real skills!
By grabbing the pen, laughing ominously at the Mahjong-faced man in the photo:
"Don’t blame me for being ruthless, blame it on you for appearing on my wife’s desk... ha-ha..."
At night, Wang Cuihua hummed a tune while bringing the stewed fish to the table. The two-catty carp was beautifully sliced, served with eggplant, vermicelli, and potato, stewed in a slow fire with dozens of spices. It was just waiting for the daughter-in-law to finish work and have dinner.
After a while, Suizi entered with a gloomy face, carrying her bag.
"Mom, where’s Yu Jingting?!"
Wang Cuihua just raised her finger and pointed to Suizi’s room when the sound of the Suona from the bedroom reached them.
Then came the crying noise of two children.
Obviously, they were made to cry by their dad’s Suona!
As Suizi stormed into the bedroom, Wang Cuihua shook her head and reminded her:
"Just scold him a bit, the fish will taste bad once it gets cold."
Even a fool could infer that their goofball of a son must have peeved his daughter-in-law.
"Hey! Don’t be so ignorant!" Yu Jingting was lecturing his kids, hands on his hips.
Both children were lying on the bed, crying loudly.
Suizi opened the door and saw the infuriating scene.
"Hey, I didn’t annoy the kids. They started howling themselves. I only asked them to appreciate art and they don’t understand —— honey, I’ve noticed, these two kids don’t have artistic cells, so you don’t need to encourage them to pursue this path in the future."
"Yu Tiegen! Must you be so obnoxious!? Your ghastly playing sounds, is it even bearable for babies?!" Suizi picked up the two children in turns. The poor kids, so young, had to bear their unreliable dad’s noise torture!
"Just blowing a Suona, why this fury?" Yu Jingting felt wronged. His wife used to call him Tiegen only when she was really furious.
He privately thought that just a folk Suona tune shouldn’t be enough to provoke her so badly.
If he hadn’t mentioned it, all would be fine, but as soon as he did, Suizi remembered something. She took out the "crime evidence" from her bag and handed it over to the "criminal".
"What’s this?!"
