Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

"Why did you bring back so little? It's not even enough for your two nephews to eat," Qian Dongying said to Wen Xianggu in an annoyed tone.

Wenxianggu still looked at her with a quail-like expression, "Mother, you know that Wang Hong's grandmother is keeping a close eye on me and won't let me take anything out. I've been secretly saving these things up."

After marrying Wang Hong, her life improved a lot. Wang Hong took her to eat good food and bought her new clothes, but he was stingy with money. He would only give her the money she needed immediately and wouldn't give her a penny more.

Grandma Wang kept a close eye on her, checking her carefully every time she went out to see if she had taken any of their belongings, like she was a thief. Wang's father, on the other hand, always looked at her with disgust and completely ignored her.

She took advantage of Grandma Wang's visit to her nephew to sneak back with the things. She had to hurry back later, otherwise she would be discovered and Wang Hong would not let her get any money at all.

"Mom, look at her clothes, they're really nice." Liu Ping's eyes were full of envy.

Since Chen Zhaoyuan was laid off, the family has been struggling to make ends meet, partly because buying a house in the city had exhausted all their savings.

Life was manageable, since the debt wasn't too much.

But who knew that Chen Zhaoyuan's factory would go bankrupt due to poor performance? Only a few people from the production department were left behind; Chen Zhaoyuan simply couldn't stay.

Since they hadn't finished paying off the mortgage, they had no choice but to rent out their "new house" to make ends meet.

The two men took their child and slunk back to Wenjia Village, where they constantly argued with the other two brothers' families.

Why is Wen Xianggu so lucky? She was able to marry Wang Pangzi, who used to love her to death, and her parents didn't even find it disgusting.

The textile factory was very profitable and was one of the two most famous factories in Xixian County. Fatty Wang was the only son of Factory Director Wang.

Even though he had a brief marriage and a child from a previous marriage, many people still consider him to be from a family they can't even dream of marrying.

As she spoke, she tried to rip off her clothes, and Wen Xianggu awkwardly tried to dodge.

Qian Dongying abruptly slapped Liu Ping's hand away. "What do you think you're doing? If we get caught, can you handle it when Granny Wang comes to our door and makes a scene? Don't cause trouble for our family!"

Wenxianggu is now their family's only source of income. As long as they outlive Granny Wang and Factory Director Wang, then everything in the Wang family will be theirs.

They're so easily swayed.

"Mom, I was just looking, I didn't mean anything by it." Liu Ping smiled awkwardly.

How could she have forgotten about that? She was only thinking about selling her clothes to get some money to buy food for the children.

"It's nothing." Wen Xianggu could only give an awkward smile.

She's doing well now, so of course she'll help her family. But her mother is right; if the Wang family finds out, things will get complicated.

Qian Dongying ignored Liu Ping and pulled Wen Xianggu away, seemingly to take her back to her room.

Wen Xianggu was treated better than anyone else in the Wen family. Even Wen Ji helped her, so Liu Ping naturally didn't dare to express the slightest dissatisfaction.

"What's there to be so smug about? Who knows if Fatty Wang will kick her to the curb later? Smug! Let's see how long she can be so smug!"
