Jiang Lang looked at her mother.
She watched as Madam Bai wiped away the tears on her face and strode toward the front gate with overwhelming momentum and imposing fury.
Jiang Lang: …
Should she politely advise Madam Bai not to be impulsive?
Forget it.
After all, she also really wanted to beat up that awful family. Letting Madam Bai personally deal with them was for the best.
Hearing the commotion, the father and son also ran out.
The whole family headed toward the iron gate together.
Aunt Bai and Bai Xiuxiu were standing outside.
“Bai Mingzhen, what’s the meaning of changing the locks? You’re not letting us in anymore?” The moment they saw her, they immediately began aggressively questioning her. x33xs.
Unfortunately, Madam Bai was no longer the same person who still felt indebted to them for raising her.
The heartache and pity she felt for her daughter had transformed into blazing fury toward this disgusting family.
Her gaze was cold.
“You’re asking while knowing the answer. I really don’t welcome you. I’ll give you one chance—get lost.”
Aunt Bai looked incredulous.
“What did you say?! Bai Mingzhen, are you trying to be an ungrateful wretch?!”
“First of all, regarding your so-called favor of raising me, over the years I’ve already repaid it all many times over with houses and money. In fact, you people owe me far more! Don’t push me, or I’ll make every single one of you spit everything back out!”
The mother and daughter were stunned.
What kind of stimulation had Bai Mingzhen suffered to suddenly dare talk back to them?
“Auntie, don’t be angry. We just came to visit. Let us inside first so we can talk. It’s not good to argue at the gate.” Bai Xiuxiu tried to smooth things over.
But Aunt Bai completely ignored her.
She had never suffered treatment like this before.
“Bai Mingzhen, if not for my husband and my parents-in-law, who knows in which gutter you would’ve died long ago! The kindness of raising someone is greater than heaven, yet you dare say such things? You shameless bitch! And you even gave birth to two little bastards!”
Madam Bai’s anger visibly surged.
Insulting her was one thing.
Insulting her children?
She really had a death wish.
“You want to come inside, right?”
Madam Bai took out the key and opened the gate.
Aunt Bai immediately felt that Bai Mingzhen was just a paper tiger.
Look at that—after a few insults, she folded. Wasn’t she still obediently letting them in?
But the moment she stepped inside, she saw Madam Bai pull out a thick stick from the corner.
It was the handle of an old mop, about as thick as a baby’s arm.
Madam Bai walked toward her with it.
“What are you trying to do?!”
Madam Bai swung the stick and smashed it onto her back with full force.
This heartless family had caused the deaths of her and her husband, and forced her poor daughter to suffer through the apocalypse alone in loneliness and pain.
They deserved death!
This was merely collecting a bit of interest!
“AHH! Bai Mingzhen! Have you gone crazy?!” Aunt Bai screamed in agony, her face twisting in pain.
“I’ve never been more clear-headed than I am now!”
Madam Bai struck her again, beating her until she shrieked nonstop while running around the yard.
Bai Xiuxiu was stunned beside them.
After snapping back to her senses, she cried out, “Mom! Auntie, stop fighting!”
Aunt Bai was used to physical labor and was quite strong herself. She seized an opportunity to snatch the stick away and throw it aside before lunging viciously at Madam Bai.
“I’ll scratch your face off!”
Jiang Lang had been enjoying the show immensely, but seeing Aunt Bai gradually gain the upper hand, she immediately rushed over to help.
“Mom! Auntie, stop fighting!”
The father and son also reacted and hurried over to break them apart.
Together they tightly restrained Aunt Bai, allowing Madam Bai to slap her several times.
“You! You bunch of bastards!”
Aunt Bai was practically going insane from rage. Her face was covered in handprints, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.
Only after venting her anger did Madam Bai finally let her go, allowing Bai Xiuxiu to tearfully help her leave.
“Mom, you were amazing!”
The workouts really had been effective. Her stamina had clearly improved a lot.
Madam Bai let out a long breath.
After suppressing herself for so many years, beating that woman up felt absolutely refreshing and satisfying.
“The uncle will definitely come later.”
Madam Bai had now completely regarded the Bai family as enemies.
“He’s definitely coming to question me about selling my shares, help that fat pig seek justice, and squeeze benefits out of me. Don’t pay him any attention, and don’t hold back either. If you want to hit him, hit him. If you want to curse him, curse him.”
“I hereby declare that from this moment onward, their family is our number one enemy! Even beating them to death wouldn’t be excessive.”
Professor Jiang and Jiang Gan had no idea what exactly had happened.
Madam Bai’s drastic personality change left them stunned.
Still, this was a good thing.
They had long been fed up with the Bai family anyway. They clung like leeches and were endlessly irritating.
Afterward, the family simply returned to their rooms to rest.
What, were they supposed to sit around waiting for those people to come back? They weren’t worthy of that.
After having a wonderfully comfortable sleep, Jiang Lang stretched lazily before entering her space.
The space was piled full of supplies, giving her an overwhelming sense of security.
She walked to the one-square-meter planting area in the corner.
Compared to the huge storage area, this tiny patch of farmland looked pitifully shabby.
She really hoped the roulette wheel would be generous and let her win a few more square meters of farming space.
The cucumber seedlings were tender and green like jade.
They had already grown to finger-length, seemingly much faster than ordinary plants, and they completely ignored environmental factors like temperature and humidity.
It was truly amazing!
