Chapter 646 Lu Jiangting Ran Away
“But didn’t Dad say he’s gone mad?”
"..."
"He's insane... Even a madman wouldn't randomly kill people. Look at all these people on the street, why isn't he just attacking everyone he sees?"
Jiang Mei: "Yes, yes, he might only be targeting people with the surname Wang. Since you're not surnamed Wang, he won't target you. Go ahead and ask him what happened."
Tang Xiaofen: "Mom, you don't have the surname Wang either, why aren't you going?"
Jiang Mei: "..."
"Tang Xiaofen, I'm your mother-in-law. You whine and complain when I ask you to do something. Don't you want to live a peaceful life anymore?"
Wang Jianguo: "Don't go looking for trouble when things are going well. Do you only feel happy when you've made a mess of things and caused chaos in the family?"
Wang Zhong: "Go ahead, old woman, give her two yuan so she can take a ride."
"It wouldn't cost more than two yuan to take a ride, just two mao..."
Wang Zhong glared at her, and she finally shut up.
"Okay, okay, two yuan it is."
But at this moment, Tang Xiaofen said, "I want ten yuan."
The whole family: "..."
"Are you crazy? What do you need ten dollars for?"
Tang Xiaofen said, "None of us are sure if Lu Jiangting will randomly attack people. I'm risking my life to go there. What if he kills me? I can't just starve to death. I've never had a decent meal in my life. I need to go downstairs to the restaurant for a good meal before I go."
"You shameless woman, you've never had a decent meal? Are you implying we've mistreated you? When you were in postpartum confinement after giving birth to these two kids, you ate eight large pumpkins in a month, almost choking to death. And you still dare to say you've never had a good meal? You're the only one in the family without income, and we haven't let you go hungry. You feel cheated, huh? Where do you get the nerve?"
Tang Xiaofen gave a bitter smile. Yes, she was the only one in the family without any income.
Wang Jianguo is at work, and his parents-in-law are receiving pensions thanks to their sacrificed elder brother.
That's because she's the only one in the family without income.
Having no income is like eating for free. No matter how much work she does, it's all her duty, since she has no income and has to rely on others to survive.
She had been a coward for so many years, and now that she was going to see that madman, her life was uncertain. Suddenly, she didn't want to be a coward anymore.
"Whatever, or you can go, Mother. Anyway, he only kills people with the surname Wang, and you don't have the surname Wang."
"Oh dear, this is outrageous..."
Jiang Mei was about to curse again, but Wang Zhong quickly stopped her, "Alright, although Xiao Fang doesn't have any income, she gave birth to a boy and a girl for our Wang family, so she's a great contributor to the family. Here's ten yuan, it's rightfully hers, go and get it."
Jiang Mei endured it for a while, but in the end she still went to get the money while cursing.
As Tang Xiaofen was about to leave with the money, Wang Jianguo suddenly felt a little uneasy.
She wondered if Lu Jiangting was really going to kill her.
If she dies, who will do the housework? Who will take care of the children?
The more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes.
He hurriedly chased after her, calling out, "Hey, wife."
Tang Xiaofen turned her head and looked at him indifferently, "Is there anything else?"
"Oh, there's no rush to ask about Lu Jiangting. Go ask for leave for me first. Then don't rush to ask him. Walk around the neighborhood first, and if he seems to be acting normally, then go ask him."
Tang Xiaofen nodded, "Okay, I understand."
After saying that, Tang Xiaofen turned and left.
Wang Jianguo closed the door and returned to the dining table. Jiang Mei said with a disdainful look, "Xiao Fen is getting more and more pretentious. All we asked her to do was some chores, and she's already acting all high and mighty. She even said she hasn't eaten well in our family for years. And she wants ten yuan. Humph, has she ever seen ten yuan? She's asking for an exorbitant amount."
Wang Zhong: "Alright, say less for the sake of the two children."
"What? So she's the only one who can have children? What woman can't have children? Any woman can give birth by simply spreading her legs. What's so special about that?"
"That's different. They gave birth to twins for our family. Go ask them, they say that only one in tens of thousands of pregnant women can produce a pair of twins."
Jiang Mei remained unconvinced, saying, "Twins are just a boy and a girl. She gave birth to two at once, and others gave birth to a boy and a girl twice, and that's the same. What? Are twins not human? Do twins have extra wings or something? If they really do have extra wings, I'd give her a hundred yuan, let alone ten."
In the past, when Jiang Mei spoke ill of Tang Xiaofen, Wang Jianguo always kept quiet and didn't care. But this time, for the first time ever, he spoke up for her.
"Mom, with the family planning policy being so strict now, do you know how much the fine is for having a second child?"
Jiang Mei: "..."
"It's not just about money. Do you think about how much trouble it caused by hiding and running around? Putting everything else aside, my wife gave me both a son and a daughter in one go. Didn't that save our family money?"
"Well..." Jiang Mei still stubbornly said, "That's because you're amazing. You're the one who got her pregnant."
The family dared not go out. Wang Zhong had promised to help Fang Qing take Wang Chenchen to school, but he broke his promise.
Wang Chenchen came downstairs to ask his grandfather to take him to school, but Wang Zhong didn't dare to go out and just let Wang Chenchen go by himself.
This family is now counting on Tang Xiaofen to save them.
On the other side, after leaving, Lu Jiangting wandered aimlessly through the streets, heading towards home.
His two older sisters didn't dare to urge him either; they were so worried that their hair was turning white.
They guarded him like his left and right protectors, not daring to urge him to walk faster, not daring to ask questions, and even less daring to leave his side for a moment.
Lu Jiangting suddenly spoke up when they reached the entrance of a public restroom.
"I'm going to make it easier."
He finally spoke last night, his voice was frighteningly hoarse.
The two older sisters were moved to tears, feeling both heartache and relief.
"Alright, go ahead, we'll wait for you here."
Lu Jiangting nodded and went inside.
Then the two older sisters waited and waited, but after half an hour they still didn't see anyone.
They had no choice but to grab a passerby and ask him to go in and find out how long he would take to come out.
The other party readily agreed and, after entering the restroom, loudly asked who Lu Jiangting was.
Of the few people scattered around, none of them were named Lu Jiangting.
After the other party finished relieving himself, he came out and said, "There's no one named Lu Jiangting. He's probably gone."
The two men's expressions changed drastically.
"Gone? We've been keeping watch here, but we haven't seen anyone come out. Brother, are you sure you didn't see clearly? Could you please check again for us?"
There were only three people inside. I asked them one by one, so there's no way I could have made a mistake.
"This...how is this possible? We've been keeping watch, and we really haven't seen him come out."
"Hey ladies, there's another door opposite this restroom. Is it possible they left from the other side?"
What?
There's another sect?
Only two words remained in their minds: 'It's over.'
"Sis, what should we do? He's not going to go back and fight again, is he?"
"I don't know. I'll go back and look for it. Don't just sit there; go ask Fu Huaiyi for help again."
"People are probably at work by now."
