Today, she, Tian Xiaomeng, had said those words. If Mrs. Lee were to say any more excessive words in the future, don't blame her for turning hostile.
It didn't matter if you were a lord or a cow, you weren't even a fart in front of her.
To put it nicely, she was their granddaughter.
Furthermore, to put things bluntly, they didn't even think of her as their granddaughter, so who would know who they were?
Perhaps Mrs. Lee was really shocked by Tian Xiaomeng's imposing manner, but when she looked at Tian Xiaomeng's slightly childish face, she saw a trace of coldness on her face.
Yes, cold.
It was as if he wanted to cut her into a thousand pieces.
"Their wings really are hard. They don't even put us in their eyes." Tian Zongmin stood up with a limp.
"That's right, we can't keep softening our wings. Besides, your wings are already old, so if you want to fly, you won't be able to do so. In the future, you'll have to rely on our wings to do so."
His wrinkled face looked at Xiaomeng with uncertain eyes, then he let out a long sigh: "Cute girl, don't misunderstand, she has no other intentions and she was also worried. After all, ever since my foot was injured, the heavy work at home fell on her shoulders, and if it goes on for too long, she will inevitably get angry."
It had to be said that the older the better, this Tian Zongmin's speaking skills were obviously better than Mrs. Lee's.
Tian Xiaomeng snorted coldly without saying a word.
Tian Zongmin continued, "Xiaomeng, we came here today with no other intentions. We just heard that your family is hiring, so your mother and I have nothing to do at home. We want to go to the wasteland to work together."
Mrs. Lee raised her head and looked at Tian Zongmin, as if she had understood something, "That's right, Xiaomeng, your grandpa and I have been quite idle lately, so please don't go. His legs hurt, go and count me in, I'll go and earn some money for your grandpa's medicine."
The corner of Tian Xiaomeng's mouth twitched.
He couldn't help but admire the two elders' teamwork.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them started playing with each other.
"Since Master's legs are not good, then stay at home. And milk, didn't you always say that your waist is painful? Then don't go, this is heavy work, what if you break an arm and twist it?" She clearly knew what Mrs. Lee was planning in her heart.
Because of this, Tian Xiaomeng would never let them go to the fields.
With Mrs. Lee's current state, she might not even be able to come back and ask for some money.
"It won't, it won't hurt anymore. Xiaomeng, just let me go, it was my fault just now, I said something I shouldn't have said, but you know it's my mouth, I didn't even open the door. Those words just now were unintentional, don't take it to heart." Mrs. Lee's face turned even quicker.
After all these times, since he hadn't gotten anything good from Xiaomeng, he decided to change the way he did things.
"It doesn't matter if you're sincere or not. You're an elder, so you better know what you should say and what you shouldn't be." Xiaomeng didn't want to buy it from her, "Please go back. You two don't have to worry about the matters in the fields. You two can take care of your health at home, so that no one can talk about our family." Tian Zongmin's injured leg was nothing compared to her eight lifetimes ago, so Mrs. Lee couldn't help but praise him.
However, with her parents here, it was no wonder that Mrs. Lee would put a sh * tty bowl on her head.
"That's fine, then let's go back first. We can go when the work starts in the fields." Those who didn't want to go, they would wait until after work, then walk out the door.
Seeing that her wife had left, Mrs. Lee wanted to say something but eventually decided against it and followed her husband out.
"Old man, why did you leave so quickly? Are you really afraid of that damned girl?" Mrs. Lee caught up to her wife and was puzzled by her behavior.
Can't you think too much of your words and actions? Now, who is the one in charge here, it is obviously that girl, Xiaomeng. Besides, if you have a family now, they have money, land and family, but if you go against them, you might really end up cutting off all contact with us. Tian Zongmin finally understood the situation. No matter what, he was his son. As long as they didn't do too much, their son's family would not treat them unfairly sooner or later.
"He dares."
"If you say so, don't say it. But that girl Xiaomeng, it's hard to say. Didn't you see the look in her eyes just now? It's as if she wants to swallow us whole."
It was fine if Tian Zongmin didn't say anything, but when he talked about Mrs. Lee, he felt really cold.
"That's true, this family has silver coins, but they're different. They still dare to look at us in the eye. If this were in the past, she wouldn't have dared to do anything to us." Mrs. Lee snorted coldly.
"That's the truth. From now on, you have to keep your mouth shut. It's for nothing other than for the sake of Xiaomeng giving us two taels of silver. We have to be a bit more polite to her family."
"If I had to bow to that damned girl, I wouldn't be able to do it." Mrs. Lee's tone was raised to her throat. What the hell was going on? Asking her to curry favor with that girl, Xiaomeng, as a nurse, was quite a beautiful idea.
"Think about it for yourself."
"Mom, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, it's all mother that's useless, I didn't give birth to a younger brother for you, no wonder you used this matter as an excuse every day." Mrs. Liu's eyes were red, and the tears in the corner of her eyes had yet to dry.
Xiaomeng sighed.
Look, people are already scolding her, and they're still speaking up for her. Seeing her like this, it's really hard to say anything more. She only wiped Mrs. Liu's eyes and said, "Mom, don't be too sad. You and Dad are still young, so if you keep working hard, you might be able to do it."
His father was a doctor, and if his mother's body had been properly nurtured, she would have long since recovered.
Perhaps one day, he could ask a better doctor to help his mother.
In the end, he was the son of a son, and his father was not the most important person.
"It's mother's body that's disappointing." Mrs. Liu lowered her eyes, full of guilt.
Xiaomeng sighed and didn't say anything else.
How could she have forgotten that this was ancient times, and in this place, it was the era of her husband and her son.
When it was dark, the grandma rushed all the chickens outside to the henhouse and checked to make sure they were safe before returning to the house.
Mrs. Liu had already prepared dinner.
Xiaomeng and Tian Youfeng were in their room discussing the work in the wasteland.
"Dad, Li Zheng said that there are already twenty people registering. In other words, there should be around thirty people on the first day of work tomorrow."
"Around thirty people. I'm afraid we won't be able to afford more."
"Yes, I'll inform Grandpa Leezheng tomorrow. I'll tell him that I won't accept the registration for now, and that I'll work for two days first." That was what she meant as well. It was better to have more people than to have too many people.
