Transmigrated as My Aunt in the 70s

Chapter 606: Chapter 599: The Tang Family Comes Calling

Sisi arrived alone at the Lei family compound. Shangguan also came, also alone. It seemed their thoughts were aligned, unwilling to involve the children in these troublesome affairs.

The elderly couple of the Lei family were also there, sitting expressionless in the living room. Upon seeing Sisi and Shangguan, however, they smiled and invited them to sit, telling them to make themselves comfortable.

The people from the Tang Family who came were Liu Ping and a middle-aged woman. Zhang Jie whispered to Sisi and Shangguan that she was the mother of Tang Anzhi and Tang Anxin, hereby referred to as Mrs. Tang, known as the daughter-in-law most favored by Old Mrs. Tang in the whole Tang Family.

Mrs. Tang and Liu Ping repeatedly claimed that Old Mrs. Tang had been hurt by Lei Haiyang’s four children and was now unable to move at home, and that Lei Haiyang, being the eldest of the four children, had failed to discipline his younger siblings properly.

The implication being that the Lei family should bear the main responsibility, and the other three families could not shirk responsibility either, which was why Zhang Jie called Sisi and Shangguan to meet in person and clarify things face to face.

After listening to the grievances from the Tang family and Lei Haiyang’s additional explanation, Sisi finally understood what had happened that day.

It turned out the four children had heard Sisi mention at the Niu Family Restaurant about Old Mrs. Tang using a bowl to collect urine for her great-grandson in the hall, causing trouble at the restaurant. The four children thus planned to teach the Tang family a lesson.

To them, the Niu Family Restaurant was their own family’s property, and since outsiders had bullied them within their own family space, they felt they needed to reclaim the dignity.

Thus, the four who wanted to reclaim dignity started insisting on going to the compound to play every day, though in reality, they intended to disturb the Tang family children.

The Tang family grandson who urinated in the restaurant was named Tang Junfeng, five years old, Tang Linlang’s cousin. As one of the only two male grandchildren of the fourth generation of the Tang family, he was especially cherished by Old Mrs. Tang.

So, Du Du and his friends took a bowl and told Tang Junfeng to urinate in it. Afterward, they even made Tang Junfeng drink the urine, saying the Tang family loved drinking urine, and he would have to drink a bowl of urine every day.

The other children in the compound, fearing chaos, all joined in to urge Tang Junfeng to drink it. The child, having grown up pampered by Old Mrs. Tang, was not very bold. After being beaten by Du Du and the others, he promptly drank the urine as told.

He drank it for several days, and Old Mrs. Tang eventually learned of it. Upon hearing her beloved being bullied, she couldn’t bear it anymore. She rushed out to rescue her great-grandson, only to find Huahua standing in front of Tang Junfeng, scolding her precious great-grandson: "Tang Junfeng loves drinking urine, Tang Junfeng is a pee-drinker!"

Old Mrs. Tang then furiously ran over and slapped Huahua. Huahua, having been spoiled since childhood, with her family never touching her even with a fingertip, was stunned by the slap and broke into tears, fighting back against Old Mrs. Tang.

Thus, the chaotic brawl Sisi and the others witnessed on that day occurred.

"Not only is our old lady beaten till she can’t move, but our children are also all beaten with bruises everywhere. There should be a limit when children cause trouble, right? How could they force our Junfeng to drink urine? Isn’t it going too far?"

Mrs. Tang spoke more sensibly than Old Mrs. Tang and Liu Ping, rather tactfully, although her expression was not too courteous.

"Talking about going too far, our children surely can’t compare to Old Mrs. Tang. She, an elderly, acted without dignity, actually hitting a four-year-old child. Such good upbringing!" Sisi sneered.

Mrs. Tang felt a burst of awkwardness. Truth be told, her mother-in-law was really too foolish. The situation, originally beneficial to the Tang family, became untenable because of that slap. After all, no matter how you say it, an adult hitting a child is simply indefensible.

"That was only because your kids were too much! Forcing Junfeng to drink pee, how could the old lady hold back?" Mrs. Tang argued unreasonably.

"They weren’t being too much by forcing him to drink pee, but your Tang family has always had that tradition!"

Mrs. Tang’s expression changed, and before she could respond, Sisi continued, "I’m not the only one saying this. Many customers in the restaurant saw it that day. If Mrs. Tang isn’t clear about it, you can ask your good daughter-in-law beside you, see if what I’m saying is true."

Liu Ping was left with no choice but to whisper in Mrs. Tang’s ear what had transpired at the restaurant that day. Mrs. Tang hadn’t expected such a revelation and was inwardly furious. Old Mrs. Tang truly had embarrassed the family thoroughly.

But at this moment, she was caught in a sticky situation and had to brace herself to keep the act going. Otherwise, returning home, Old Mrs. Tang would surely make it miserable for her.

Mrs. Tang took a deep breath, feeling stifled as she saw Sisi’s mocking expression across from her. She had actually researched this He Sisi because years ago, her son An Zhi was keen on marrying this girl.

She had mentally prepared to be He Sisi’s mother-in-law and devised several strategies to intimidate He Sisi, as her son was quite infatuated with He Sisi.

She never imagined Sisi wouldn’t marry her son, because in her view, the world only had girls her son didn’t fancy. How could there be a girl who didn’t fancy her son? (Feeling rather self-assured)

Reality, however, gave her a harsh slap. He Sisi indeed didn’t fancy her precious son and didn’t show An Zhi any favorable expression, which infuriated her.

What aggravated her most was that He Sisi’s husband had been prospering in his career these years, while her son An Zhi remained stagnant. Not only couldn’t he compare with He Sisi’s husband, but even those peers in the compound who weren’t as capable or well-off as Tang’s family in the past were now doing better than An Zhi.

How could she bear it?

If he had married He Sisi, perhaps An Zhi would be the person in a leading position in the city now?

Mrs. Tang often thought so, believing He Sisi to be a woman who brought prosperity to her husband. Tian Xinhua’s career success was all thanks to He Sisi’s fortune-bringing nature. In terms of ability, her An Zhi was in no way inferior to Tian Xinhua.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Tang glanced distastefully at the daughter-in-law beside her. If it wasn’t for her family’s somewhat useful connections, she would have long made An Zhi divorce Liu Ping.

Neither bringing prosperity to her husband nor bearing a grandson, truly a useless waste!

I can only say, encountering such a bizarre mother-in-law is Liu Ping’s sad fate!

Although speechless at Old Mrs. Tang’s actions, Mrs. Tang had to grit her teeth and endure, insisting that it was wrong for several kids to beat a seventy or eighty-year-old lady, and the lady had been harmed by the kids’ beating. What will you do now?

Mrs. Tang didn’t have much choice, so she decided to act shamelessly, as taught by Old Mrs. Tang, advising her to act unruly at the Yang Family. However, she dared not do so there and instead privately switched target, coming to the Lei family.

Zhang Jie sneered: Only picking the soft targets, huh? Well, I’m not easy to mess with either.
