Quick Wear: Reversing Life

Chapter 6: Desperate Housewives’ Counterattack (06)

Although Qi Mingyue is a spoiled young lady, she also knows who she can offend and who she cannot offend.

She had also heard her mother talk a lot about the wife of Ruida President at home, and she always thought that Liu Xinyan was just a nouveau riche who had gotten lucky.

When Qi Mingyue heard she was asked to apologize, her expression quickly changed. Apologizing to Jiang Yu was even more unacceptable than a slap in the face, so she subconsciously retorted, "Why should I apologize? Low-class people shouldn't come to Saisi!"

Hearing this, the principal sweated even more. He was just an agent and couldn't afford to offend either side.

Liu Xinyan sneered, "Inferior people? Forget about tracing your family back several generations. Your father's grandfather was just an ordinary farmer who knew a little about herbs. If you divide people that way, then you are also a descendant of the inferior people. You are just standing on the shoulders of the so-called inferior people to see the world. How can you be qualified to categorize people into upper, middle, and lower classes?"

Qi Mingyue, who had never been spoken to so harshly before, turned pale instantly, but she didn't know how to refute.

At this time, some students from Class A who had finished their extracurricular extension classes had returned and were blocking the door to watch. Qi Mingyue felt embarrassed and pushed the principal and Liu Xinyan away and ran out.

The remaining two girls' family backgrounds were not as good as Qi Mingyue's. They were her little followers and ran out when they saw this.

After watching the whole thing, Jiang Yu walked up to Liu Xinyan. Her face was pale, but her eyes were bright. She was grateful to Liu Xinyan, but she didn't know how to address her, so she said, "Thank you, Madam..."

Liu Xinyan glanced at her wet clothes and said, "Hurry up and change your clothes, don't catch a cold."

The two walked out, and the students gathered at the door automatically made way for them. The beautiful young woman said to Jiang Yu, "If someone bullies you again, go find the principal and he will take care of you."

The principal, who was following behind, said, "Yes, yes, Jiang, if you encounter something like this in the future, you must report it to the teacher."

Not far away, the first-year high school parent-teacher meeting had just concluded. Many people noticed the situation here. After recognizing Cheng Yu’s wife, they gathered in the corridor to ask what had happened.

Jiang Yu followed the teacher called by the principal to change clothes. Liu Xinyan didn't want to say much and just made a few excuses.

The principal seemed to be hesitant to speak to Liu Xinyan. Liu Xinyan knew what he wanted to say. She told the principal that the Cheng family would sponsor the girl in the future and hoped that similar things would not happen again.

The principal nodded repeatedly in agreement.

...

After the parent-teacher meeting, Liu Xinyan took Cheng Hao out of the school gate. The family driver was already waiting at the school gate.

Cheng Hao just wanted to go home and play video games, so he got on the car in a hurry.

At this time, a figure ran out from the gate and called out to Liu Xinyan who was about to get in the car.

"Mrs. Cheng——"

Liu Xinyan turned around and saw that it was Jiang Yu.

She changed into a T-shirt that had been washed so much that it turned white, and jogged over with her schoolbag on her back, with sweat beading on her smooth forehead.

Jiang Yu handed Liu Xinyan a bag of apples: "These are apples that my parents grew themselves. I'm giving you a bag. Thank you for helping me out just now."

Liu Xinyan raised her eyebrows, thinking that this child understood the ways of the world at such a young age.

Jiang Yu thought she minded, so he quickly said, "This one isn't sprayed with pesticides."

Liu Xinyan took it and said, "Thank you, Jiang, you are so polite. Just call me Auntie from now on."

Jiang Yu readily agreed: "Okay Auntie, I won't disturb you, I'll leave first."

Liu Xinyan looked at her. Jiang Yu lived on campus, but she had changed out of her school uniform and was carrying her schoolbag. She asked, "Where are you going?"

"I work part-time as a tutor," said Jiang Yu.

In order to reduce the burden on her family, she found a tutoring class outside to teach elementary school students math and English. The tuition was 50 yuan an hour, and two hours of tutoring was enough for her food expenses for several days.

Liu Xinyan looked at Jiang Yu's thin arms, then at her son's sturdy body, and sighed: "Where is the address? Auntie will take you there."

Jiang Yu quickly refused: "No need, Auntie, it's near the school, very close."

Seeing that she felt embarrassed, Liu Xinyan didn't force her.

After the car drove away, Cheng Hao said, "The girl just now is quite famous in Seth. She is very good at studying and has participated in many competitions and won awards."

Liu Xinyan snorted and glanced at him sideways: "I'm only one year older than you. Look at me and then look at you. I go tutoring after school, and you play with your dog at home after school."

Cheng Hao was unconvinced: "What's wrong with playing with a dog? She is a tutor because she is short of money, but I am not short of money."

Liu Xinyan thought for a moment and said, "Your words have enlightened me."

-

After a week of classes, Cheng Hao came home from playing basketball with Lin Yusheng on the weekend. He immediately took off his jersey as soon as he entered the house. He heard his mother yelling, "Cheng Hao, put your clothes on!"

Cheng Hao was startled and put his clothes back on reflexively without reacting. He looked towards the living room in confusion and saw a girl sitting next to his mother.

It’s Jiang Yu!

Cheng Hao blushed instantly, feeling a little embarrassed and a little surprised when he asked, "Why did she come to our house?"

Liu Xinyan cleared her throat and announced, "Set aside three hours on weekends from now on and have Jiang Yu watch you finish your homework. She will check it for you."

Cheng Hao paused as he was about to drink some water. He turned around in disbelief and said, "Mom, are you crazy? She's only one grade higher than me."

Liu Xinyan didn't care: "What's wrong with being a grade ahead of you? His knowledge reserves are more than a grade ahead of yours, and he's just watching you do your homework. Let Jiang Yu help you correct your habit of procrastinating and playing around while writing."

Cheng Hao couldn't get over his mother's grievances, so he led Jiang Yu into his study room with a grudge. He threw the ball to the ground, sat down on the computer chair, and asked with an unhappy look on his face, "How much does my mother pay you?"

Realizing that Aunt Liu's son wasn't as easy to get along with as she was, Jiang Yu felt a little uncomfortable, but he still put down his schoolbag, took out the books inside, and answered him honestly, "Two hundred an hour."

"Okay, I'll give you double the price. Don't come here again. If my mother asks you to come, just politely decline." Cheng Hao said impatiently.

Jiang Yu: ...

Jiang Yu: "No, I've already promised Aunt Liu."

Cheng Hao: ...

Jiang Yu: "Take out your homework, what else is left to do?"

Cheng Hao was angry.

Cheng Hao spread out his homework while cursing.

...

After being forced to finish his homework and check it again, Jiang Yu left on time.

Three hours of agony.

Cheng Hao angrily took out his cell phone and complained to Lin Yusheng.

【c】: My mom is crazy!!!

【狗雨】:?

[狗雨]: You disappeared for three hours just to deal with this matter?

【c】:Do you know the special assistant student in the second year of high school who always gets scholarships?

[狗雨]: Oh, that girl?

【c】: My mom! I actually asked her to help me with my homework!

【c】: She’s only a sophomore in high school! She’s only one year older than us!

【狗雨】: So what?

【c】:?

[狗雨]: Don't you know? She participated in the high school math competition in junior high. My teacher said she had the potential to be the top scorer. Otherwise, why do you think the school recruited her as a special assistant?

[Dog Rain]: The future top scorer in the college entrance examination will help you with your homework

【狗雨】: I think it’s worth it

Can't chat at all!

Cheng Hao went mad silently. He threw his phone onto the bed and leaned back, looking at the ceiling.

Do I really have to be tutored by her until graduation?

No, he's going to complain to his dad.

As soon as I went out, I ran into my beautiful mother coming down from upstairs.

Cheng Hao felt a little guilty. Liu Xinyan glanced at him up and down, squinting her eyes and asked, "What are you standing there for? Pack up and go back to the old house for dinner."

-

Cheng Yu hadn't finished get off work yet, so Liu Xinyan and Cheng Hao went back to the old house first.

Perhaps the old lady heard that Cheng Yu had returned from a business trip, so she called and asked the whole family to come back for dinner.

The old house is on the outskirts of the city, more than an hour away from the city center.

In the car, Cheng Hao was playing on a tablet, but he was a little absent-minded and looked at Liu Xinyan from time to time.

What the original owner hated most was going back to the old house to eat. Every time he heard about going back to the old house, he would feel panic and anxious.

Cheng Yu's father passed away a few years ago, and now only his mother and grandmother are left in the old house. Cheng Yu's mother is a highly educated person. She was re-hired by a well-known university as a lecturer a few years ago, and later she stayed at home to write textbooks.

His mother was quite open-minded about this upstart daughter-in-law. She knew that neither she nor Cheng Yu could influence the marriage, so she was the first person in the family to be open-minded. Their relationship after the marriage was neither close nor distant. It wasn't like she loved him at all, but at least she was kind to him on the surface.

But Cheng Yu’s grandmother was not so easy to get along with.

This old lady was called Madam Cheng Zeng, and in the old days she was considered a noble lady. It would not be an exaggeration to say that her fate was smooth sailing.

When war broke out, Mrs. Cheng Zeng's father decisively donated money and supplies. After the victory, he was considered a great hero, and the whole family moved to Xindu. She was born in an era when foot binding was no longer required, and her open-minded father sent her to school when she was young.

Even during the Cultural Revolution, her donations helped them escape disaster. Although most of her remaining property was confiscated, at least she didn't suffer much. In that era when many people died, her parents were still healthy and married her off to an equally well-off family.

With her husband Mr. Cheng's considerable assets and sharp vision, and with the guidance of her father, his business is growing bigger and bigger.

The Cheng family had a very good family tradition, and the two were very loving after they got married. As a result, Mrs. Cheng Zeng enjoyed a life of happiness and was praised by others. This also led to her looking down on her granddaughter-in-law who had little education and a low family background.

Every time the original owner returned to the old house, the old lady would find fault with her, saying her nose wasn't a nose and her eyes weren't eyes. This made the original owner always timid in front of her, which made the old lady even more annoyed.

Fortunately, the old lady likes Cheng Hao, her energetic great-grandson, very much, which can be regarded as a merit of the original owner.

"Mom, if the old lady bothers you again, just hide behind me."

Hearing this, Liu Xinyan said with a half-smile, "If she scolds me, I will tell her your high school entrance exam scores."

Although most of Seth's students do not plan to take the path of examinations to enter higher education, they still have to take the regular exams as usual. Although Cheng Hao is smart, he is lazy. In the past, Liu Xinyan forced him to study. During the high school entrance examination, Liu Xinyan was busy with her own things and relaxed her supervision of him a lot. This guy began to get arrogant, and his scores in the high school entrance examination were completely not up to his previous level.

Cheng Hao knew he was in the wrong, so he shrank his neck awkwardly and kept silent. At home, the only people who cared about his grades were his mother and his grandmother, who used to be an educated person.

...

The affluent life has kept Mrs. Cheng Zeng, who is 75 years old, in good health. She sits on a rosewood chair in the living room, her silver hair combed into the same old bun from decades ago as usual, she wears a beautiful gown, and is resting with her eyes closed.

"Grandma! Grandma! I'm back." Cheng Hao, who is responsible for creating the atmosphere, ran in happily like a cannonball.

"Haohao is here." The old lady finally opened her eyes and greeted him with a smile.

Gao Shujun happened to walk into the living room from the corridor garden and saw Cheng Hao with a smile on his face.

Liu Xinyan came in from behind and greeted everyone like the original owner did, but she found that there were several guests sitting in the living room.

"Haohao, call someone. You know Grandpa Chang and Grandma Chang. This is Aunt Chang, and this is Aunt Chang's daughter Xin'er. She is the same age as you and goes to the same school as you." Gao Shujun said.

Cheng Hao had met Grandpa Chang and Grandma Chang before, and Chang Ling and Chang Xiner had just met them in class. He didn't expect that they were the daughter and granddaughter of the Chang family.

Cheng Hao greeted him obediently.

The original owner knew the Chang family, so she smiled, nodded, and greeted them.

Gao Shujun glanced at Liu Xinyan. After not seeing her for a long time, she looked much prettier and her temperament was more pleasing to the eye than before.

"Where is Cheng Yu? Not with you?" Gao Shujun asked.

"He is still in the company and will come back when he finishes his work." Liu Xinyan said.

Chang Ling heard it and breathed in and out without leaving a trace. She was a little nervous. She glanced at Chang Xiner who was quietly eating fruit beside her, and raised her hand to smooth her hair.
