Chapter 91: Bad luck
Chapter 91: Bad luck
“You!” Gu Honghua pointed at Wang Huifang, unable to speak for a long time.
She was annoyed by Wang Huifang’s seemingly wronged appearance.
If it weren’t for taking advantage of her closeness to Wang Huifang, she would never have been friends with the likes of her.
Goodness, Sister Gu.
She spat disdainfully…
A person like Wang Huifang, only her two daughters could probably stand her.
Gu Honghua felt very unlucky and left.
She did not want to see Wang Huifang now.
The weeping and wailing were too annoying.
Wang Huifang watched Gu Honghua leave, her tears falling down in big droplets.
She could only cry and work at the same time.
The Supervisor saw her and was all smiles. He used to really dislike Wang Huifang, but couldn’t resist her having such a good daughter.
All that sugar had completely corrupted him.
Now he even found pleasure in Wang Huifang’s deathly pallor.
And he consoled her a few words.
Saying she was fortunate.
Upon hearing this, Wang Huifang cried even louder.
The Supervisor touched his nose and quickly slipped away. He found Wang Huifang strange; with such a capable daughter, shouldn’t she be bragging all the time? Instead, she breaks into tears.
Someone gossiped about the entire incident and ran to tell Liu Wutong.
Liu Wutong heard it without any change in expression, only gave the messenger three pieces of candy.
After receiving the candy, the informer walked away filled with gratitude.
Liu Piaoxu felt uncomfortable after hearing about it.
“Sister, why is Mom acting like this? She wasn’t like this before.” Liu Piaoxu was somewhat depressed; her mom had been increasingly off these last two years.
Turns out hanging out with bad people can turn you bad too.
“Alright, Piaoxu, be good and don’t meddle in adult matters,” Liu Wutong patted her head.
Piaoxu was also getting by better; these days she was well-fed and well-rested, her cheeks had a little flesh, and her hair had darkened.
Liu Wutong touched her own hair.
Hm…
Still so sparse.
Probably going to become even sparser in the future.
Thinking of this, Liu Wutong felt a little sad. Lucky that it was the apocalypse and no one cared about these things anymore.
After basking in the sadness, Liu Wutong went back to work.
After finishing work, and when it was time to eat, Wang Huifang held onto the portion Liu Wutong had gotten for her and watched Monkey warily.
Keeping a distance from Monkey.
Monkey, seeing this, gave her a big smile.
He still remembered, he had eaten a bowl of her rice. He needed to say thanks.
But when Wang Huifang saw that smile, she reacted as if she’d seen a ghost, stumbling and nearly spilling her food.
Fortunately, she steadied herself at the last moment; she fell, but the food didn’t spill.
Monkey: “???”
Monkey withdrew his gaze, wolfed down his meal, and in a blink, his bowl was as clean as if it had just been washed.
Wang Huifang: “!!!”
Wang Huifang gripped her bowl even tighter.
“Mom, if you want to eat, then eat. If not…”
“Eat! Mom will eat! Mom is definitely eating!” Having said that, Wang Huifang ate ravenously, wishing she could clean the bowl in one second. She ate so fast that she choked.
Liu Wutong: “…”
Liu Wutong was also eating her meal but passed a bowl of water when she saw this.
After drinking the water, Wang Huifang finally felt a little better, and then she resumed her fervent eating.
Gu Honghua, eating her flavorless mush far off, watched with envy.
Looking at the speed she was eating, the food must be delicious.
Why couldn’t she have such a daughter?
Sigh.
Bitterly, Gu Honghua took a big gulp of the mush and only realized after finishing it that she’d drank too much.
She had even drunk her son’s share.
Gu Honghua’s expression changed, and she glared at her bowl with a darkened face.
“`
It’s over.
What to do now.
It’s all Wang Huifang’s fault for eating so fragrantly, causing her to accidentally eat her son’s portion of porridge too.
Damn troublemaker.
Gu Honghua’s eyes darted around before she put on a smile and moved a few steps to the side, staring straight at a younger woman eating porridge.
“Sister Ling, the porridge today is pretty good, isn’t it?”
Seeing this, the woman quickly poured the porridge from the bowl into her mouth, finishing it in a few gulps before wiping her mouth.
“What’s up?”
Gu Honghua couldn’t keep her smile seeing how quickly she finished.
“Why did you eat so fast?” Gu Honghua said, somewhat displeased.
“I’m hungry.” The woman was crafty too, she took Gu Honghua’s hand to complain after she finished eating, “You don’t know, I have a big appetite and I’m never full, my stomach’s always growling. It hurts, oh! Sister Gu, you still have more than half a bowl left, aren’t you full? Do you want me to help you out? We shouldn’t leave porridge out for too long…”
Gu Honghua’s already unattractive complexion turned uglier, and with a swoosh, she pulled back her hand.
Cursing inside, starving ghost.
A woman eating so much.
Not enough for herself, and she still wants to snatch hers.
Starving ghost.
Gu Honghua, afraid that the woman really would grab her bowl, made some excuses and ran off with her bowl.
This was her beloved son’s food; she couldn’t let others take it.
After Gu Honghua walked far away, the woman spit out disdainfully. She wasn’t a fool like Wang Huifang, trying to take advantage of her.
Could she be any more disgusting, Gu Honghua.
…
After eating with Wang Huifang, Liu Wutong kept a close watch on her. Wang Huifang wanted to give Gu Honghua some food, but she was unable to sneak it out.
It had been a while since Gu Honghua was able to take advantage at all.
Not at all.
Not a bit!
A bit…
Furious.
Gu Honghua was fuming with helpless rage.
With Wang Huifang no longer the easy target, supporting her son was very hard. She was recently very hungry, weak, and there was so much work to do…
The Supervisor began to look at Gu Honghua with increasing disapproval.
As if looking at a lazy sloth.
Gu Honghua gritted her teeth in anger.
That look, it used to be directed at Wang Huifang!
Troubles never come alone, one day when she went to the restroom, she was kicked into the pit latrine.
Not to mention the smell.
Both her hands and feet were broken.
At that time, a broken bone meant more than just pain.
And with Gu Honghua being unpopular and covered in sewage, no one wanted to get close to her.
She managed to climb out on her own, but once she did, she couldn’t move anymore.
Wang Huifang did want to help her Sister Gu.
Liu Wutong simply knocked her out, and every time she regained consciousness, she was knocked out again, not even allowed to go work.
Simply not letting her out.
Some people couldn’t stand it and went to inform Gu Honghua’s son.
When they went, Gu Honghua’s son was sound asleep, unrousable.
Even when woken up, he refused to take care of his own mother.
Leaving Gu Honghua lying there, at the mercy of fate.
As Gu Honghua lay there, initially asking anyone passing by for help, cursing loudly at their refusal.
But being both injured and hungry, she ran out of energy after two days of cursing.
Eventually, lying on the ground, she asked anyone who passed by to seek Wang Huifang for help, to save her.
Now, who in the vicinity didn’t know Wang Huifang had a daughter, not like Wang Huifang who was clueless and had superpowers, controlling Wang Huifang not to see Gu Honghua.
No one was willing to offend a Superpower User for the sake of an old Gu Honghua.
So, after begging for a long time, those begged ran away quickly, and if it weren’t for the only restroom there, they wouldn’t even take that route.
In the end, it was unclear whether Gu Honghua died of hunger or pain.
After she died, those in charge of collecting bodies, finding her covered in excrement, did not even want to move her.
