Chapter 251: Always Looking for a Bargain
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mrs. Wang didn’t quite catch what Li Zhu’s mother was saying, but she could tell that she was being introduced to Gu Zi.
She responded more casually, saying, “Exactly! Without my old lady’s help, would your wedding ceremony have gone so smoothly? It’s just a piece of fermented cake, what’s the harm in giving me a full piece? Really.”
Gu Zi couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. This woman didn’t seem like she belonged to the same family as Aunt Yang at all.
However, Gu Zi was someone who could distinguish very clearly when it came to these matters.
Aunt Yang was Aunt Yang, and Mrs. Wang was Mrs. Wang. Yang Shenszi was the one who helped, and the Lin family had even given her a red envelope as a token of appreciation. They didn’t invite her to be the witness for free.
Gu Zi initially thought of giving some fermented cakes to the well-behaved child and out of respect for Aunt Yang. However, Mrs. Wang’s entitled attitude made Gu Zi uncomfortable.
If she gave in today, she was afraid that this woman would keep finding opportunities to take advantage in the future.
Gu Zi said to Mrs. Wang, “When you mention the ‘old lady,’ you mean your mother-in-law, Aunt Yang, right? She didn’t even ask for anything extra after receiving a red envelope from our family. So, why do you feel entitled?
Everyone is trying a small piece for tasting; why should you be an exception?” Gu Zi’s blunt words caused Mrs. Wang’s face to change. The people around remained silent, thinking that Gu Zi was making a reasonable argument. They all tasted a small piece before buying, and Mrs. Wang shouldn’t be an exception.
Gu Zi was running a business, not providing relief aid.
Moreover, they had never seen anyone so directly reject Mrs. Wang before. They all felt a sense of relief.
This Mrs. Wang had a history of asking her fellow villagers for vegetables, fruits, and even sausages and cured meat.
She would directly ask for things, and when she first asked, she seemed polite and even gave the impression of being a good person. But if others showed reluctance, she would verbally attack them, making them feel embarrassed not to comply.
