Chapter 22 Farce
Of course, there are some people who really don't have money, but they also want to go out to search for supplies. What should they do? The safe zone is not so unkind. They will let people out of the safe zone again after a week of departure.
Of course, they could only collect some supplies left by the group in front.
Even though it's just what's left from the front, there are still a lot of good stuff. There are only so many people ahead, and it's impossible to search all the places, so there will always be some places that are missed.
This gave the following group an opportunity. With a little more carefulness, they could still find some of the finest, most nutritious ingredients. There were so many good things in the wild; as long as they had energy and could be eaten, they didn't mind at all and took everything in their pockets. These things were all nutritious, so what? They didn't taste good? So what? With proper preparation, they could still maintain the power level of their family's psychic warriors.
Ling Xue and Xiao Luo were resting in the hovercraft, and Xiao Luo discussed with Ling Xue:
"Dai Liu and I have spent almost all our family savings because of my injury. This time, I'm going to take advantage of you and Uncle Yong. When I return from this mission, I'll pay you all the fees I owe you, and I won't delay!"
Ling Xue was also very happy to hear Xiao Luo say this. Although she and Uncle Yong didn't care about these things, it was always comforting to see your efforts being seen by others.
Ling Xue smiled and nodded, "Okay, don't worry too much. Just think of me and Uncle Yong when you have something good. Don't worry too much about these things in the ordinary time. Uncle Yong likes you two very much!"
Xiao Luo also laughed. He said to Ling Xue, "Yes, Uncle Yong has probably been staying at home too much lately and wants to get some fresh air! When he talks about this mission, his whole body seems to be glowing."
Ling Xue thought about it and said, "Yes, he's been feeling really pent up lately. He used to go out a lot, but he hasn't been going out much lately."
The two were chatting happily when they heard a burst of shouting and cursing outside:
"Zhou Changli, let me tell you, if you don't pay me double the cost of this brat's expenses this time, I won't agree."
"That's right, sister-in-law, you've done too many things that are disloyal to your parents, haven't you?"
"That's right. She's spent a lot of our things just for that little burden from her mother's family!"
After several people had finished their accusations, Zhou Changli loudly retorted to her mother-in-law:
"Mother-in-law, I can't spend the money I earn myself. What era is this? Are you still acting like a feudal patriarch? I give you a lot of money every month, but don't expect anything else!"
Upon hearing Zhou Changli's words, her mother-in-law, Zhao Xichun, immediately burst into tears and screamed, "Zhou Changli, you are so unfilial! It's a pity that my second son died early, leaving me, an old woman, to suffer the anger of my daughter-in-law!"
"You keep repeating the same thing over and over again. I'm telling you this: I'll give you everything you're owed every month. No extra! You can make a fuss all you want!"
After saying that, Zhou Changli turned around and left with ten-year-old Zhou Baiyun.
Seriously, this old woman and her family bother me every month, every month, just to deduct more money from her to subsidize their family. They never succeed, but they still do these things without interruption. I don't know what they are thinking?
When her husband was healthy, he was a capable psychic warrior. Unfortunately, he was injured while on a mission two years ago and never recovered. As a result, the couple were kicked out by their mother-in-law. Normally, after being kicked out, they wouldn't have to pay any pension contributions. But who knew that the family members were so shameless that they would block the door every month if they didn't pay, making a scene.
For the sake of her husband, she would give some every time, but not much, after all, her burden was also heavy.
