Chapter 85: Chapter 84: Intention

Seeing Auntie Xu coming, Yang Cuihua gave a direct cold snort.

Auntie Xu originally came to join in the excitement, and her eyes lit up at the sight of the pork and piles of gifts on the table.

She knew right away that these were brought by Xu Niannian; she had seen the girl carrying a big basket earlier.

She hadn’t expected the girl to be so generous.

Where did this girl get so much money from?

Auntie Xu squinted her eyes, could it really be that she earned it through her own business?

All these good things, they must have cost tens of yuan, right?

Does Xu Niannian have the ability to do that?

Hmph, what business, I guess it’s probably from her wealthy husband’s family.

In the end, it’s still selling one’s daughter.

Though she said so, Xu Guilan still eyed the bounty on the table with envy.

And there’s even high-gluten flour.

"Guilan, what brings you here?"

Seeing that no one in the family spoke up, Liu Guimei reluctantly had to be the one to initiate the greeting.

After all, she and Xu Guilan had the closest relationship here.

Auntie Xu was just waiting for someone to pick up the conversation, and as soon as Liu Guimei spoke, a smile immediately bloomed on her face.

"Oh, our Dongzi has run out of milk, and he’s still so young. I was thinking of coming over to borrow some grain from your place, and I’ll return it to you later," Auntie Xu said while her eyes were fixated on the milk powder on the table, her intentions clearly showing.

Liu Guimei also saw what she was up to, but since the items were brought by Xu Niannian and she was still there, it didn’t seem right to lend them out.

Moreover, she knew exactly what kind of person Xu Guilan was.

If she borrowed, there was no guarantee she would return it.

Yang Cuihua couldn’t stand Xu Guilan the most, and upon hearing her, she directly said, "Guilan, what are you joking about? My second brother’s family has both elderly and children to take care of, they have no grain to lend you. I advise you to find somewhere else to borrow from."

Her words immediately shut Xu Guilan up, but Xu Guilan wasn’t one to take things lying down.

She shot back right away, "Yo, Cuihua, you’re pretty capable, aren’t you? Knowing exactly how much grain your little brother-in-law has. Who says there’s no grain? Isn’t there milk powder on the table? What’s wrong with lending a bit to our family? We’re neighbors, are you afraid I won’t be able to return it or what?"

With that, she walked over, intending to grab the milk powder.

But Yang Cuihua was one step ahead of her, swiftly sweeping everything on the table into her basket.

The speed was so impressive that Xu Niannian suddenly thought her mother’s agility was quite remarkable.

Auntie Xu immediately became unhappy, her face stretching long, "Cuihua, what do you mean by this?"

"What do I mean? This is my stuff, I’ll do what I want with it, what, you have a problem with that?"

"You..."

"What about me? I can do as I please with my stuff?" Yang Cuihua immediately grabbed Xu Niannian’s hand, "Let’s go, Baby Nian, we’re heading home."

Yang Cuihua carried the basket with one hand and pulled Xu Niannian with the other. Auntie Xu and Yang Cuihua were not on good terms, so naturally she wouldn’t offer to lend anything to her.

All she could do was fume with frustration.

Don’t think she didn’t know the stuff was brought for Xu Erhong’s home by Xu Niannian.

Hmph, she had a good relationship with Guimei; she didn’t believe she wouldn’t be able to borrow later.

Xu Niannian, being dragged away by Yang Cuihua for quite a distance, couldn’t help but say, "Mom, are we really taking it back home? We’ve already given it away."

Knowing Yang Cuihua’s stingy nature, Xu Niannian was really worried she would take this opportunity to take the goods home.

Yang Cuihua exclaimed, "How could we? Am I that type of person?"

Xu Niannian instinctively nodded, almost blurting out a "yes".

Seeing her reaction, Yang Cuihua grinned, "You clever devil, you know your mom best. I am quite reluctant, but we really can’t take these things home. I’m just using this as an excuse, so that Xu Guilan, that old woman, won’t get any ideas about targeting your auntie."
