Quick Transmigration Hoarding: My Selfishness Leads to a Killing Frenzy

Chapter 104 The Four-Courtyard House: Widow Qin (Part 3)

What should we do if we run out of money but still have to make a living?

Madam Jia could only urge Qingmo to go to work. Qingmo smiled but didn't say anything. She picked up a bowl of tea and handed it to Madam Jia, who assumed that Qingmo had listened to her.

After she finished drinking, Qingmo went back to her room to sleep. The next day, Qingmo put on a pale face, making herself look frail and weak.

They took Jia Zhangshi to the factory to take over her job. Jia Zhangshi was already 50 years old. At that age, how could the factory let her take over the job? Besides, she was a fitter, which was a skilled job.

If Qingmo's body is damaged during production, he can't go to work. If he doesn't go to work, he won't have food to eat. If he doesn't have food to eat, his whole family will starve to death, and if his whole family starves to death, it will be the factory's responsibility.

Anyway, she doesn't care; her mother-in-law has to take this class.

Qingmo stood weakly to the side, pretending to wipe away tears.

Jia Zhangshi sat down on the ground and started wailing. Since the factory wouldn't let her take over the job, it was like forcing her whole family to die and starve. So she decided to bring her two children to the factory to eat and live.

"Waaah! Leader, please have pity on us, a widow and her orphan! My daughter-in-law is a bad wife. If you don't let me take over the job, what will happen to this family? We won't be able to afford food. Does the factory not care about us? We at Dongxu have risked our lives for the factory! My poor son!"

There was nothing the factory could do but agree to let Jia Zhangshi take over the job, given how unreasonable her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were. However, she might be reassigned later.

After all, it's unrealistic for Jia Zhangshi to be a fitter at her age. She might be transferred to work as a boiler operator or help in the kitchen. But this cleaning job doesn't matter, since she doesn't have to do it anyway.

The reason why Jia Zhangshi was so obedient was due to the effect of the Loyalty Pill, which guaranteed 100% obedience, even to the point that she would be willing to die immediately.

If it weren't for the need for someone to go to work and earn money, Qingmo really wouldn't be willing to feed her. After all, that would make her a servant, which would be so boring and not fun at all.

Besides becoming obedient, eating this doesn't change anything else; the personality remains the same as before, nothing changes.

Now Qingmo can finally relax and be a good daughter-in-law who's supported by her mother-in-law. She feels sorry for her mother-in-law, but what can she do? Her health is so poor, sob sob.

When they got home, they asked Jia Zhangshi to tidy up the room and move the two eldest sons' belongings to Jia Zhangshi's room, so that the two eldest sons could live with their mother-in-law.

She's not in good health and needs to have her own room. It would be terrible if she passed on her illness to the child.

Have Jia Zhangshi clean the room spotless and change the sheets; perfect.

From now on, the household chores will be handed over to her dear mother-in-law. There's no way around it; her mother-in-law just spoils her and dotes on her.

He insisted on handing over 15 yuan of his monthly salary to her, and the rest was used for the family's living expenses.

The mother-in-law is in charge of earning money, and she's in charge of providing for her parents. Nice.

Banggeng came back and started yelling for food. Qingmo grabbed a broom and started hitting him. "That brat! He's like a starving ghost every day. He comes back and yells that he's hungry."

"Waaaaah, bad mommy, I want to eat, I want to eat meat, grandma, grandma, help, come and hit mommy, she hit me."

Qingmo showed no mercy, beating Banggeng so badly his buttocks were bruised and battered. Trying to run away? Not a chance.

Seeing Xiao Dang terrified and too scared to utter a sound, he picked up a broom and gave him a good beating. Children should be treated fairly and justly.

Xiao Dang: ...There's absolutely no need for that!!!

Inside the house, Madam Jia was extremely anxious. Her grandson was breaking her heart, but even though she was heartbroken, it was the master who had hit him, so she dared not utter a sound.

Children who are disobedient often lack proper education. How should they be educated? The saying goes, "Spare the rod and spoil the child," but the rod itself is not a good thing.

What can be done? The only thing she can do is to discipline him more.

Every day before dawn, Jia Zhangshi would get up to prepare meals, then rush to work at the factory. She would come back at noon to cook for the children, and return in the evening to continue cooking.

Of course, the food didn't improve much either. She was always hungry. Qingmo didn't care, so she would just eat a little something at mealtimes and then cook for herself in her room.

Banggeng and Xiaodang can't even get into her room now. Qingmo has nothing to do but beat the kids all day. The neighbors have tried to persuade her, but it's no use.

You can try to persuade me, but I won't listen. I won't listen, you're just spouting nonsense.

Qingmo was leisurely and carefree all day long, which surprised the neighbors. When did Jia Zhangshi become so good to Qin Huairu?

But this is none of their business. If Jia Zhangshi has no objection, what can they say?

"Sister Qin, this is the food I brought for you."

Sha Zhu handed the lunchbox to Qing Mo with a simple and honest look on his face. Although Sister Qin no longer washes clothes for him every day, Sha Zhu still wanted to be good to her.

It takes two to tango. If Sha Zhu didn't have any ideas of his own, even if Qin Huairu scrubbed his clothes to pieces every day, it wouldn't make a difference.

Even though Qingmo stopped doing laundry, Shazhu would still try to bring her some food every now and then, though not as frequently as Qin Huairu asking for it every day.

Qingmo didn't take it. She didn't need that little thing, and there was no need to keep this big oaf hanging on. She didn't even look at him; she was just a sucker for good looks.

"Thank you, but please take it back. Don't send it to us again. We won't starve. Sha Zhu, you're not young anymore. You should find a wife. You should care more about your sister than me."

Sha Zhu was a little surprised. Sister Qin wasn't like this before. Now she looks down on his little things?

However, since the other person didn't want it, he wasn't particularly insistent on giving it to them. He simply nodded and went home.

Without Qin Huairu keeping him hanging on, even if Sha Zhu had some feelings for her, he wouldn't go after her, since he wasn't bad off either.

Qingmo doesn't cause trouble, but she won't stop others from causing trouble either. As long as it doesn't bother her, they can cause as much trouble as they want.

Jia Zhangshi simply obeyed Qingmo's every word, but her personality remained unchanged. She still went to Yi Zhonghai every day to complain about being poor and to Sha Zhu to take advantage of him.

However, without Qin Huairu, she couldn't get any advantage from Sha Zhu anymore. When she couldn't get anything, she would make a scene and instigate Bang Geng to make a scene as well. Every day, she would shout and curse people all over the courtyard.

Qingmo didn't care; she just wanted to watch the excitement. She loved watching excitement because they all had to behave when they got home, and anyone who disobeyed would be beaten.

The courtyard house was in constant chaos. Several old men loved to meddle and put on airs, while several old women enjoyed gossiping. In addition, her eldest son was a petty thief.

They're all incredibly talented!

They all speak eloquently, and their insults are equally powerful. Everyone has a talent; none of them are just there for show. A true "6"!
