CHAPTER 803: CHAPTER 802: MADAM LU SCHEMES AGAIN
Madam Lu was indeed eavesdropping. The Old Zhou family’s outhouse was just behind the house. She went there and then returned to her own home along the side of the house. When she walked behind her mother-in-law’s house, she heard her talking with her brother-in-law. She wanted to see if her mother-in-law was quietly giving some benefit to her second uncle again, so she started to eavesdrop.
Unexpectedly, she heard about that slutty mother and daughter, Zhou Yingmei and her daughter. Even more unexpectedly, did someone really come looking for them?
How unfair Heaven is!
That mother and daughter were living a prosperous life. Whose life in the surrounding ten miles could compare to theirs?
And as their close relatives, they were utterly destitute, unable to even eat meat.
Not to mention, her own family was also having bad luck.
If before, Madam Lu envied and admired Wufu and the others, now, because of the mess in her own family, she was filled with immense hatred towards them.
What kind of grudge, what kind of hatred, would make them harm her family like this? Just because they came to visit?
Such cruel and vicious little bitch!
Now she was disliked by her husband’s family, detested by her own family, unable to even step into her own family’s doorstep, all thanks to her.
Yet she didn’t dare confront Wufu, fearing her vicious revenge. She felt as if her throat was being choked, that breath stale and stuck, like a lump of phlegm, making her extremely irritable.
And now she heard that some wild man claiming to be Zhou Yingmei’s had come looking for them? So the family could reunite and live happily and comfortably?
Dream on!
Madam Lu bit her lip in resentment, remembering what her mother-in-law said—that man’s visit was more like a curse than a blessing.
Yes, if the man had a family and household, then he was properly married. How would that mother and daughter fit in, this illegitimate relationship? How could this not be an underhanded affair? Judging by Wufu’s personality, would he even agree? Surely it would be chaos.
Even if, stepping back, the man was alone and widowed, but if he could send a servant to search for them, being capable of employing a servant, he must have a substantial family background. Could she possibly find a way to benefit from this?
As Zhou Yingmei’s family, wouldn’t that man have to show some respect?
Thinking of this, Madam Lu felt a burning impulse inside, intuitively feeling that telling the man about Zhou Yingmei’s whereabouts would benefit her side and put all the negative consequences on that mother and daughter!
Madam Lu’s scheming entirely ignored the lessons of the past, not considering what might happen if things blew up.
After a long wait, when Zhou Xuennian returned, Madam Lu pulled him to sit by the bed.
Zhou Xuennian shook her hand off angrily and said, "What are you doing? It’s not even dark yet. I’ve been tired all day and have no mood to deal with you. Go quickly and make dinner."
Madam Lu’s face turned purple with anger upon hearing this. They hadn’t been well since the incident, and hearing his disdainful words now filled her with a desire to strangle him.
"Who has such filthy thoughts about you? I have something to say," Madam Lu scoffed.
Zhou Xuennian rolled his eyes at her, not wanting to speak, and turned over to lay on the bed.
Ignored, Madam Lu became more enraged, slapping him hard on the back. Zhou Xuennian jumped up like a grasshopper, shoving her away, "Are you done, woman? If you don’t want to be together, then get lost!"
"You think you’re so charming, damn it. If I leave, just for your looks and reputation, I’ll send an old hag to sleep with you and bring you water to wash your feet!" Madam Lu retaliated unceremoniously.
"You!"
"Stop with your ’you.’ I really have something serious to say. Let me ask you, do you want to get rich and take revenge?" Madam Lu sneered, looking at him sideways.
Zhou Xuennian was taken aback, getting rich and taking revenge? What was this woman planning now!
