Chapter 123: 077: A slap in the face, turns out Ni Yan was not bragging! _6
Translator: 549690339
Could this really be Ni Yang, the rustic bumpkin?
Why would she be selling noodles here?
Liu Juan felt her worldview slowly crumbling.
How much did Sun Chunxiang say this bumpkin could earn in a day again?
Was it three hundred?
Three hundred!
That’s three hundred!
She and Ni Dazhu worked in the factory, toiling to the point of exhaustion, only to earn 40 yuan a month.
Together, they made 80 yuan a month.
But good ol’ bumpkin Ni Yang could make two months’ worth of their wage in a day.
Liu Juan was practically green with envy!
At the same time, she deeply regretted not taking this country buffoon in initially. Maybe all the money this hayseed was making could’ve been hers!
Just the thought of it made her heart ache!
But it wasn’t too late to realize this now. After all, she was Ni Yang’s aunt, her elder! Ni Yang should hand over the money she earned for safekeeping!
What on earth does this rustic who knows nothing want with so much money? She probably doesn’t even know how to put it aside much less guard it. What if she loses it?
Liu Juan took a deep breath, walked up to Ni Yang with a smile and affectionately greeted, “Yangyang!”
Ni Yang handed her last bowl of noodles to a customer, looked up, and saw’ Liu Juan’s ingratiating face.
A look of indifference crossed Ni Yang’s face, “Comrade, do I know you?”
Caught off guard, Liu Juan chuckled: “Yangyang, look at the way you talk. I’m your aunt, how could you not recognize me after just a few days?”
Ni Yang had thought Sun Chunxiang was already brazen enough, turns out, Liu Juan put her to shame.
“My mom is an orphan who doesn’t even know who her parents are. Are you claiming to be an aunt who sprouted from a rock?” Ni Yang retorted.
With a thick skin, Liu Juan smiled: “Yangyang, your aunt knows you’re still angry about that day. But your uncle only spoke rashly out of anger! Your mother is his biological sister after all!”
Without a word, Ni Yang began clearing the stove and the bucket, ignoring Liu Juan.
Liu Juan immediately started helping, smiling obsequiously: “Yangyang, this strenuous manual labor isn’t suitable for a young girl like you. Let your aunt handle it, go have a rest.”
“Put it down.” Ni Yang’s voice was composed.
“What?” Liu Juan blinked in surprise, her smile slightly forced. If Ni Yang was not rolling in money, she would not stoop so low as to fawn over her!
What a disgusting act!
Does she think she’s something special?
“I’m asking you to put it down!” Ni Yang repeated. Her tone was calm, but carried an undercurrent that cut deep.
The hand Liu Juan was using to hold the large iron spoon trembled involuntarily, “Ya- Yangyang, y-you don’t need to be polite with your aunt. I’m not tired.”
Ni Yang continued, “Miss, if you don’t put my stuff down, 1’11 be contacting the police for robbery! There are patrolling officers right over there!”
Robbery!
