Chapter 226 Completely Shocked
Deng Xiuzhen felt a deep sense of powerlessness: This fool wasn't thanking her at all; he was just making her the target of hatred!
"You mean when I fell down earlier? I was bumped into. Please don't mention such embarrassing things, it's too awkward." Deng Xiuzhen could only pretend to be clueless.
"Don't be so polite. Even if you didn't mean it, you still helped me. People around me told me that if it weren't for you, my money would probably have been stolen. I have to thank you..." Mao Dongzhu said persistently.
“If it was truly my fault for accidentally falling, thus preventing you from suffering any loss, then I think you should thank the person who bumped into me more. If it weren’t for that person, I wouldn’t have fallen,” Deng Xiuzhen replied calmly.
Whether the person bumped into her unintentionally or intentionally, let him bear the consequences himself. She didn't want to have anything to do with someone like Mao Dongzhu.
“Yes, how come I didn’t think of that? That person must have pushed you on purpose to remind me. Yes, he must have done it on purpose! I have to go thank him!” Mao Dongzhu said, turning and running away.
"Idiot!" Deng Xiuzhen cursed inwardly. They were still on the train, and it hadn't stopped yet; those people were definitely still on board. If Mao Dongzhu said that, wouldn't she get that person killed?
She couldn't control this matter, so she didn't bother to worry about it. Deng Xiuzhen turned around and sat down to eat steamed buns and instant noodles with Qin Yanlin.
The two were dressed in shabby clothes, and their meals consisted of nothing but boiled water and steamed buns or the cheapest instant noodles. They didn't buy anything on the train, perfectly embodying the essence of a poor person returning home destitute after working away from home.
Moreover, neither of them carried any money; their money was all on bank cards sewn into their inner linings, making them impossible for anyone to steal.
Of course, in her condition, thieves wouldn't even consider targeting her.
Mao Dongzhu...
That money is definitely not going to stay.
As darkness fell and the night deepened, the clanging sounds became a lullaby. Most passengers closed their eyes to rest or drifted off to sleep. Deng Xiuzhen and Qin Yanlin also went to meet Zhuang Zhou.
"My money! Who took my money? Railway police! Service staff, come quick, my money has been stolen!" Mao Dongzhu shrieked.
Deng Xiuzhen found two wads of toilet paper and stuffed them into her ears to block out Mao Dongzhu's high-pitched voice.
That stupid thing, Mao Dongzhu! He's over fifty years old and doesn't even know the importance of keeping your wealth hidden. He's still making a big fuss about it. He's really wasted his life!
Of course, no matter how many years pass, her stupidity will remain unchanged.
Deng Xiuzhen couldn't be bothered to watch this idiot's mad outburst of tears and snot. She'd seen too much of that in her past life, and it disgusted her now.
In this life, I'd rather not be related to such a family by marriage again. Wenjing should try to avoid going to Kyoto as much as possible.
Deng Xiuzhen covered her head and pretended to be asleep. Before long, she actually fell asleep again.
"Hey, hey, wake up." After an unknown amount of time, Deng Xiuzhen was shaken awake.
Deng Xiuzhen looked at the other person blankly and asked, "What? What happened?"
"I lost all my money. Do you have any? Can you lend me some? I promise I'll pay you back as soon as I get home..." Mao Dongzhu cried, her eyes red.
“I…I don’t know you! If you’ve lost your money, you should contact the police. You can ask the train police to help you check. Ask them to contact the police station for you. Go there as soon as you get off the train. They should be able to help you, at least they can take you home,” Deng Xiuzhen said calmly.
"Please lend me some money, I really can't go back without it, please help me." Mao Dongzhu's tears came out again.
"There are so many people on the bus, how are you going to find me? Besides, didn't I tell you to go to the police station?" Deng Xiuzhen was annoyed and spoke rudely.
“I know you’re a good person, otherwise you wouldn’t have helped me before. Don’t worry, I will repay you and thank you!” Mao Dongzhu said repeatedly.
“I want to help you, but I really don’t have any money. Look at what I’m wearing, what I’m eating, and then look at my husband. Do you think I have any money to lend?” Deng Xiuzhen would never lend money.
"You must have some compassion, right? How can you be so heartless? I thought you were a good person, that you helped me save my money, and I even thanked you before!" Mao Dongzhu raised her voice.
"I'm sorry, I've never felt like I helped you, nor have I accepted your thanks. Of course, I really don't have any money to lend you. Please go find someone who can help you, don't waste your time here!" Deng Xiuzhen's temper flared up.
She knew that her in-law from her past life was a clueless person who was adept at taking advantage of others and bullying honest people. He was especially good at bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
The reason they're contacting me now is probably because they see me as a woman with a man who has intellectual disabilities.
He probably wants to strip off everything he can to make up for her losses.
Having been in-laws for over ten years in her previous life, she knew better than anyone that Mao Dongzhu and his wife were greedy for money and never paid back what they borrowed.
In her past life, Mao Dongzhu borrowed money from several people. When they came to collect it, she said, "I borrowed the money through my own abilities, why should I pay it back?"
The onlookers were completely stunned.
