Time Travel: The Vicious Female Supporting Character's Counterattack

There was a smell on their bodies, so Zhou's father and mother wanted to take a bath, so they asked Shen Xue to boil water for them.

Shen Xue spread her hands and said, "Mom and Dad, you don't live in the countryside, so you don't know how hard our life is.

I have to carry the firewood I usually use from far away mountains back with great effort. It’s really tiring. Look, there is not much firewood left at home, and I have to save it for cooking tomorrow.

Just bear with it tonight, and I'll take you up the mountain tomorrow. When you've brought enough firewood back, I'll boil water for you to take a bath."

People would go up the mountain to collect firewood whenever they had free time. The firewood at home was piled high, but Shen Xue's family was almost out of firewood.

She would only go up the mountain to pick up some firewood and bring it back. When she had free time, she would either think about what delicious food to buy for herself or think about having a baby with Jing Chen. There was really not much firewood in her house.

There was enough firewood to boil a pot of hot water, but Shen Xue just wouldn't let her in-laws feel comfortable.

Really, I came all this way, and I only bought a little bit of candy, and I didn't even think of bringing some nutritional supplements, snacks, cloth, or anything else.

They are so ignorant that they brought two mouths to feed and wanted her to serve them for free. How naive of them! She has never even served her own parents, so why should she serve these two pretentious old guys?

They thought she was stupid, and they didn't treat her as their daughter-in-law at all. They probably despised her in their hearts.

She had originally thought of treating them as her own parents, but after that trip to Kyoto, she realized that they were not worthy at all.

"Aren't there plenty of firewood in the corner? Why is there no firewood? Shen Xue, are you deliberately not wanting us to take a hot bath?"

Wang Fanghong had eyes and saw that there was a bundle of firewood in the corner, but she told them that they could only have a hot bath if they brought back the firewood from the mountain.

This country woman didn't treat them as her parents-in-law at all. With their status, how could they possibly go up the mountain to carry firewood like other peasants?

"Mom, I can't help you if you're like this. As a daughter-in-law, no matter how well you do, your mother-in-law will be dissatisfied. It's okay, I can bear it."

Zhou's father and mother: "..." What could she endure? Shen Xue's current attitude was just short of shitting on their heads.

Father Zhou's face was gloomy. As a grown man, it was difficult for him to say anything to Shen Xue. He could only suppress his anger and said, "Shen Xue, I'll give you fifty cents. Now boil some water for us."

As soon as Zhou's father took out the money, Shen Xue said, "Dad, look at what you said. We are all family. It's so formal to talk about money. Okay, since Dad really wants to give it, I can't refuse Dad's kindness. Thank you, Dad. I want to boil water, right? I will boil it for you right now. You just sit down and it will be ready in a while."

When Shen Xue heard that she could get money for boiling water, her attitude became extremely respectful, making Zhou's father and mother seem particularly unreasonable.

The water soon boiled, and Shen Xue even poured out the water with a smile, "Mom and Dad, the water is boiled, who wants to wash first?"

"Dad, you wash first." Zhou's mother asked her husband to wash first and she could wait for a while.

Seeing the bucket that Shen Xue was using to hold water, Wang Fanghong felt somewhat disgusted. "Shen Xue, is this bucket clean?"

He even dared to complain that her bucket was not clean. If it weren't for the money, Shen Xue would not have wanted to endure this grievance. "Clean, clean, this is the color of the wooden bucket."

"Where can I shower?"

Shen Xue pointed to the shed next to her. The shed was very simple, with a few wooden boards blocking the view. If someone really wanted to peek, they could just push the gap in the wooden door to see through.

"Where are you going to let us take a shower in this weather? Shen Xue, if you want us to catch a cold, just say so."

In this weather, they all have to wear coats. They will catch a cold if they take a shower in a drafty shed.

"It's okay to go inside and take a shower, but mom and dad, you have to be careful when you shower, don't let the water spill. Xiaojin is still young and doesn't walk very steadily. If there's water on the ground, he'll slip."

Zhou's father did not take a bath in the shed. He took the bucket into the house and called the two children out. Zhou Jin was unwilling to come out. Since he was a boy, Zhou's father did not care about him.
