Landlady who likes to hoard land

Chapter 1 The Seed of the Poor

"You're really obsessed with money, no wonder you're from a poor family."

The sharp and sarcastic words that came out of Xu Qian's mouth, which opened and closed like two sausages, pierced Wang Chengyu's inferiority complex like sharp swords.

Feelings of inferiority, shame, and anger overwhelmed her in an instant. She felt cold all over, her mind went blank, and her lips trembled, but she couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.

The phrase "the seed of the poor" kept swirling in my mind, refusing to leave.

All she could see was Xu Qian's sausage-like mouth, which was painted with a beautiful bright red lipstick and was opening and closing.

Her lips, which had been painted with such a beautiful lipstick color, now seemed to have turned into a gaping maw, as if it were about to swallow Wang Chengyu whole.

Wang Chengyu is usually unassuming and appears gentle and kind, which gives her in-laws the impression that she is easy to bully.

They forgot that even the gentlest and kindest person has their bottom line. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered!

Wang Chengyu's family is her bottom line. Xu Qian's use of the phrase "poor seedling" clearly includes her parents as well.

She took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, and her icy gaze suddenly fixed on her sister-in-law Xu Qian's contemptuous and arrogant eyes. Her words were equally devoid of warmth.

What did you just say?

Xu Qian was startled by her sister-in-law's sudden assertiveness, which had always made her weak and easily bullied. Her layers of fat trembled.

Xu Qian is seven years older than Wang Chengyu's husband, Xu Jianren. Her temperament and personality are very similar to Wang Chengyu's father-in-law, Xu Chenxing: domineering, controlling, and extremely controlling.

Relying on her status as the eldest sister in the family, she always acted arrogantly and domineeringly in her parents' home, not allowing her younger siblings to resist in the slightest.

Now she knows that what she said is wrong, but she will not allow anyone to refute it, especially her sister-in-law Wang Chengyu, whom she has always disliked. Not only did Wang Chengyu repeatedly talk back to her today, but she also dares to question her with such a terrible attitude.

Words uttered without thinking slipped out of his mouth again.

"What did I say wrong? Your parents were poor, so aren't you a poor person too?"

Before the words had even finished...

"Snapped"

A crisp slap instantly silenced the noise in the room. A bright red handprint quickly appeared on Xu Qian's chubby left cheek, which matched the color of her lipstick quite well.

"If you can't speak properly, shut your stinking mouth. My family may be poor, but we've never eaten a single grain of rice or drunk a drop of water from you. Who are you to judge us? If you say another word, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Wang Chengyu angrily warned her, his right hand, which had just hit her, hanging at his side, trembling slightly from exhaustion due to the excessive force.

The room was unusually quiet. Everyone else was shocked by the slap. How could someone who was usually so timid dare to hit someone?

Xu Qian never expected that her usually weak and easily bullied sister-in-law would not only talk back to her, but also dare to hit her. She was furious and embarrassed as soon as she realized what was happening.

With her eyes wide open, she let out a howl and charged at Wang Chengyu like a mad mother bear, her 200-pound body surging forward.

"You son of a bitch, you dare hit me? I'll tear you apart first!"

"Ah~ I'll fight you to the death!"

Wang Chengyu's anger completely erupted. Provoked by Xu Qian's repeated vicious words, he lost his mind and started wrestling with his sister-in-law Xu Qian, using both hands and feet without any fighting skills.

Chaos erupted instantly inside the room. Wang Chengyu's husband, Xu Jianren, quickly got up to break up the fight, and the stool he was sitting on was thrown far away, crashing to the ground with a thud.

……

Wang Chengyu is a housewife who met her husband Xu Jianren through a blind date. From meeting to engagement to marriage, it only took a year, which can be considered a whirlwind marriage.

After getting married, they had two sons. The eldest son, Xu Wen, is twelve years old and has just entered the first year of junior high school. The younger son, Xu Yao, is ten years old and has just entered the fourth grade.

As her child grew up, Wang Chengyu also transformed from a beautiful young woman into a 35-year-old middle-aged housewife.

Xu Jianren is one year older than Wang Chengyu and is the second oldest in his family. Under the strong suppression of his father Xu Chenxing and his sister Xu Qian, he is not only timid but also a quiet and reserved person.

Xu Chenxing and his wife had Xu Qian seven years before having Xu Jianren. Although Xu Chenxing was strong-willed and selfish, she doted on Xu Jianren when he was young. As a result, Xu Jianren developed a weak personality in front of his parents and sisters, but a very irritable temper towards others. He would yell and shout to express his dissatisfaction at the slightest inconvenience.

Xu Qian is seven years older than Xu Jianren. They also have two sons. The eldest son, Zhao Long, is fifteen years old and in the third year of junior high school, while the younger son, Zhao Chen, is three years old and has not yet started kindergarten.

Xu Shan, Wang Chengyu's sister-in-law, is three years younger than Xu Jianren. She also has two children: a nine-year-old daughter, Zhu Zhu, who is in the same school as Wang Chengyu's youngest son but in a different class in the fourth grade; and a seven-year-old son, Zhu Xing, who has just entered the second grade.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is just a few days away. Today, Xu Qian and Xu Shan, along with their husbands and children, came to Xu Qian's parents' home to deliver Mid-Autumn Festival gifts.

Each of their families consisted of four people, plus Xu Chenxing and his wife, making a total of fourteen people. They ate at two separate tables, one for the children and one for the adults.

The incident began when Xu Shan's son, Zhu Xing, took a liking to Wang Chengyu's younger son, Xu Yao's, toy robot. Zhu Xing made a fuss about taking the robot from Xu Yao, but Xu Yao, who cherished the robot, refused to give it up and instead took the toy and made Zhu Xing run around the house.

Xu Shan felt sorry for her son, so she called out to Xu Yao.

"Xu Yao, let Xingxing play with your toys. Your aunt will buy you lots of delicious food next time she comes."

Xu Yao has a good appetite and is not picky about food. He is a chubby boy, and Wang Chengyu rarely buys him snacks. So Susan's snack temptation is exactly what Xu Yao was looking for.

This robot was his most treasured toy, but he also really wanted to eat snacks. After hesitating for a while, he finally couldn't resist the temptation of snacks and handed the toy to Zhu Xing.

Regarding Xu Yao's practice of exchanging toys for snacks, Wang Chengyu believed that the toys were his own and he had the right to make his own decisions, so he remained silent.

To everyone's surprise, Zhu Xing, who had been spoiled since childhood, was still relentless after getting the toy. Holding the toy in her hand, she continued to chase after Xu Yao while crying.

"I'll beat you to death, so you won't let me play with my toys!"

Xu Yao only knew how to run in circles and didn't fight back.

Xu Shan completely ignored Zhu Xing's behavior.

"Xu Yao, come to Mommy's." Wang Chengyu couldn't stand it anymore and called her son over.

Xu Yao suddenly threw himself into Wang Chengyu's arms. Zhu Xing was not afraid of Wang Chengyu, her gentle aunt, and chased after her to continue hitting Xu Yao.

"Zhu Xing, stop! Your brother has already given you the toys to play with. Why are you still chasing after your brother and hitting him?" Wang Chengyu grabbed Zhu Xing's arm to stop him from getting closer.

"It's his own fault for not giving it to me sooner, making me chase after him for so long. I'm going to hit him!"

With a sob in her voice, Zhu Xing acted unreasonably, constantly reaching out to grab Xu Yao.

"Yaoyao, be good. Xingxing is not good. Yaoyao, stop running. Let Xingxing hit you a few times and he will stop chasing you. Otherwise, he will never stop."

Wang Chengyu's mother-in-law said slowly.

Xu Shan and her husband did not react to her words, clearly having become accustomed to this kind of treatment.
