Chapter 155:

Originally, there was an evidence, but unfortunately, there is nothing now. It only proved that she is wise and lucky!

Old Lady Bai became more and more proud of herself. Her face brightens up, and those ugly wrinkles on her face seem became less.

Mrs. Zhang’s lips twitched, the disdain in her face couldn’t be concealed. Recently, this old lady more and more lose her self-awareness. She thought everyone in this world was a fool, only she had a brain.

Mrs. Zhang doesn’t care how much Old Lady Bai feel proud of herself. All she wanted to know right now is, where will she get rice for lunch: “There is no food in the house. Since everyone is not busy, let’s divide the workload. There is no rice at home, someone needs to go to buy or borrow it.”

Old Lady Bai was still thinking about this issue. But since Mrs. Zhang had mentioned it, she said: “Shumei, you go to your brother’s house and borrow 2 buckets of rice. Tell him we will repay him once we harvest in our field.”

Mrs. Zhang’s face immediately turned black: “Mother-in-law, you also said the same thing last year and last last year. I haven’t seen you repaying my brother. But now, you want to borrow again? Do you think our family is a bunch of fools?”

Old Lady Bai’s face drastically changed. She angrily said: “You lowly wench, what are you talking about? Is our Bai Family the kind of people who don’t pay back food?”

Mrs. Zhang sneered: “Are you not? You borrowed foods in my Zhang’s family not just once or twice, right? But, did you pay it back?” Didn’t she just tore the IOU of Doctor Lu, and yet she forgot about it already?

Yesterday, Bai Erzhu was reprimanded by his wife, and he understood it by heart. So, he helped his wife: “Niang, why don’t you go to second uncle’s house, I heard second uncle has been living a good life recently. I’m sure borrowing 2 buckets of rice will not be a problem for him. If you can’t go, why don’t you let first sister-in-law go back to the Liu Family to borrow some rice? First sister-in-law never visited her maternal family to borrow things, I’m sure they won’t refuse to help her this time, right?”

Old Lady Bai’s face became more and more ugly. She and her maternal family have long severe ties. When she married to the Bai Family, the Bai Family’s condition was much better than her Wu Family. When her husband welcomed her through his door, he gave her a pair of silver coins as gift money. That year, 2 silver coins were not a small amount. Her husband also gave her a new dress. It was her first time to wear a new dress in her entire life.

When her mother saw her living a good life, she visited her to borrow rice and oil from time to time. The Bai Family’s life condition was better than the Wu Family, but she couldn’t withstand what they were doing.

Slowly, she alienated herself from her family, but at that time, it was only alienating. She hasn’t severe ties with them until her second brother’s son suddenly became ill. When her second brother had no money to bring his son to the doctor, he came to her. She just recently got married, she doesn’t want to lend him her 2 silver coins. So, she lied and said that she has no money. And she doesn’t have anything that he could borrow.

Later, her second brother’s son died from illness. Since then, the Wu Family didn’t come to the Bai Family. And she, she also never visited the Wu Family.

Mrs. Liu’s face was even more ugly. Although she and her family were exchanging words, it was only because her family was asking for help.

Her maternal family was very poor to the point that they can’t even afford to buy a meal for themselves, so what will they lend her?
