70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 107: Mom Got Into a Fight

Su Xiu thinks of Du Yu and Zhao Qing as a messy bunch, which makes Xu Mumu a bit displeased, but since Su Xiu’s date is here, she doesn’t want to embarrass Su Xiu.

Su Xiu led Meng Shaohua towards home, Xu Mumu gave an apologetic smile to Zhao Qing and the others.

"Mumu, does your cousin not like you?" Du Yu didn’t seem to mind.

"Is it that obvious?" Xu Mumu asked with a helpless smile.

"Very obvious." Du Yu nodded affirmatively.

"It’s been that way since we were young, never quite saw eye to eye."

Not bothering with Su Xiu’s issues anymore, Xu Mumu and Zhao Qing walked towards the brigade together.

Back home, with someone suddenly missing, Xu Mumu felt a bit unaccustomed.

"Big sis, have an egg cake." Xu Mumu put down her bag, and Xu Jiaojiao placed a piece of egg cake near Xu Mumu’s mouth.

"Where did you get the egg cake?" Xu Mumu didn’t eat it.

"My uncle gave it to us, big sis, have some." Xu Jiaojiao said with a sweet smile.

"Did you all eat?" Xu Mumu asked gently, she really liked this little girl, Jiaojiao was soft and obedient.

"We did."

Xu Mumu nodded, took the egg cake, and found it quite good, soft and fluffy.

"Sis, something’s wrong, Caixia and Mrs. Li got into a fight." Tiedan came running in from outside.

"What happened?" Xu Mumu frowned, getting up to take a look, how could her mom get into a fight with someone?

"I don’t know, I ran back as soon as I saw it, it’s at the edge of the field by the riverbank." Tiedan said anxiously.

"I’ll go have a look, you all stay at home." Xu Mumu quickly walked outside, after all, even if it’s a fight, she couldn’t let her mom suffer.

She remembered who Mrs. Li was, a widow in the village, with a son about seventeen or eighteen, much disliked in the village for petty thievery, never working, and often hanging out with hooligans in the county town.

"Sis, I want to go too." Xu Minglei immediately followed.

"We’re going too." Xu Jiaojiao and the others followed without hesitation.

Though a bit helpless, Xu Mumu let them all come along.

Reaching the spot Tiedan mentioned, Xu Mumu saw a crowd gathered from afar.

"Ah, Caixia be careful." Someone in the crowd exclaimed, and as Xu Mumu ran over, she saw her mom being pushed into a ditch by Mrs. Li, covered in mud and water.

"Mom." Xu Mumu quickly ran over to help Li Caixia up.

"Mumu, step aside, don’t get yourself dirty, watch your mom beat Li Shufen to a pulp." Li Caixia pushed Xu Mumu aside and lunged at Li Shufen.

"Come on, who’s afraid of whom." Li Shufen wasn’t backing down either, and the two soon started fighting again.

They were pulling hair, scratching, and kicking, using every move they had.

"Mom, that’s enough, stop fighting." Xu Mumu pulled the two apart with her strength.

"Mom, what exactly happened, why did you get into a fight with Mrs. Li?" Xu Mumu was getting a headache.

"It’s that foul-mouthed shrew, I’m going to rip her lips apart." Li Caixia was furious, working well but then interrupted by Li Shufen, from the same brigade as her maiden family, occasionally gossiping about others. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Just now, Li Shufen wanted her son to marry her daughter, but surely Li Shufen knew what her son was like?

Li Caixia naturally refused, bringing up all the things Li Shufen’s son had done, portraying him as worthless.

That enraged Li Shufen, and they began fighting, both not ones to mess with, making it hard for others to separate them.

Listening to everyone talk about the incident, Xu Mumu couldn’t help but twitch her mouth.

"Mrs. Li, I’m still in school, not looking for a partner just yet. Baocheng is promising, maybe he’ll find a wife from the city for you." Xu Mumu said calmly.

"Certainly, when my Baocheng finds a job, he’s moving to the city." Li Shufen eyed Xu Mumu, a bit torn. Xu Mumu’s lucky fate was well-known thanks to Li Caixia, even in nearby brigades, and being a high schooler, she sure wanted her son to marry Xu Mumu.

But Xu Mumu’s words were pleasing, marrying someone from the city would indeed be good, life would improve.

"Ah, what a daydream, still hoping to live in the city, haven’t woken up yet." With her daughter present, Li Caixia was confident, knowing her daughter was undoubtedly on her side.

"If your Xu Minghui can get into the city despite being lazy, my Baocheng can too, Li Caixia, others may fear you, but I don’t." Li Shufen braced to start fighting again, but Xu Mumu separated them, not stopping her from kicking Li Caixia.

Li Caixia wasn’t easy to bully either, as Li Shufen kicked her, she kicked back twice as hard.

"Enough, stop causing a scene." Zhao Guodong approached, constantly having to handle these minor squabbles, giving him constant headaches.

"Caixia, are you alright, are you hurt?" Xu Hai ran over from outside, wailing upon seeing his wife’s pitiful state.

"Hubby, you’re finally here, if you hadn’t come, I’d be bullied to death, she pushed me into the ditch." When Xu Hai arrived, Li Caixia suddenly acted "weak" and began complaining.

"Captain, please help us get justice, you know Caixia, she’s good-natured, never causing trouble, and now she’s being bullied like this." Xu Hai looked pained, letting Li Caixia lean on him.

"Captain, don’t listen to their nonsense, it was Li Caixia who started it." Li Shufen retorted immediately, dammit, Li Caixia and her husband were too despicable, acting as soon as the captain arrived.

Xu Mumu was also dumbfounded, never expected her parents to be like this.

Zhao Guodong took a deep breath, surely this was a test from the organization, these women constantly stirring trouble in the brigade, with a series of minor issues daily that he had to mediate.

"What exactly happened, explain it clearly." Looking at them speaking one after another, Zhao Guodong couldn’t get a word in, so he shouted, finally silencing them.

"Captain, I saw it all, let me explain." Liu Cuixia stood up without hesitation.
