Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Capítulo 2419: Chapter 2412: You’re Really Insulting People

Liu Qiaoqiao was at home with the door closed, gnawing on meat in the kitchen with her son.

The meat was originally meant to be kept for dinner. But the aroma was so tempting, the mother and son couldn’t resist it.

After a nap until mid-afternoon, they roused and rushed to the kitchen to eat meat.

They heated up a pile of ribs, and the mother and son each grabbed a piece and began eating around the table.

“Mmm! Delicious, truly delicious! So tasty!” Liu Chengcai said, mouth full and mumbling indistinctly.

“Isn’t it? That He Fusheng sure is lucky. Ever since he befriended the chief’s son, look at how he’s living, almost like a god! Eating exquisite food and drinking fine wine every day!” Liu Qiaoqiao thought of the stolen bottle of wine and quickly took it out, skipping the cup, and took a swig directly from the bottle.

The mother and son were eating heartily when suddenly they heard someone banging on the door outside.

“Who is it?” Liu Chengcai asked.

“Go check. I promised Aunt Zhang to meet at the village convenience store for some mahjong this afternoon! It’s probably her!”

“Alright.”

Liu Chengcai casually wiped the grease off his hands and looked at the last piece of meat in the bowl, saying: “Mom, leave the last piece for me.”

“Fine, fine! Go on!”

Liu Chengcai left, and within a minute, Liu Qiaoqiao heard her son shouting from the yard: “Mom! It’s Aunt Liang from next door!”

Once Liu Qiaoqiao heard it was Liang Xiuzhu, she hurried to hide the bottle of Maotai wine in her cabinet. Just as she finished, Liang Xiuzhu stomped in angrily.

The leftover ribs and gnawed bones on the table hadn’t been dealt with yet.

“Liu Qiaoqiao, aren’t you overdoing it! Enjoying the stolen meat, huh?” Liang Xiuzhu fumed at the sight of the bones on the table.

“Hey, hey, hey, Xiuzhu, what’s with this talk? Even though we’re neighbors, you can’t just make wild accusations! What do you mean I stole your meat? Call it and see if it responds!” Liu Qiaoqiao, unreasonable as ever, had prepared plenty of twisted logic.

She knew Liang Xiuzhu was tongue-tied and couldn’t argue against her.

“You… Isn’t this just nonsense? Even if you call, the meat won’t respond!” Liang Xiuzhu was enraged by her barrage of nonsense.

“This meat is in my house, so it’s mine.” Liu Qiaoqiao raised her neck, her willow-shaped eyebrows arching high. “Xiuzhu, your words are really looking down on people. What, only your family can afford meat, and mine cannot? Just because we’re eating meat, you say we stole it from you, that’s downright insulting!”

“Liu Qiaoqiao, the insulting one is you!” Liang Xiuzhu spread out her hand, revealing an old silver ring. “Tell me how your ring ended up in our big pot?”

It was then that Liu Qiaoqiao realized her ring was missing.

She guessed it must have been lost in the rush while stealing meat, accidentally flinging it into the pot while shaking off the meat broth from her hand.

The ring had been worn for quite a few years, almost ten years, and had become loose.

“I was wondering where my ring went. You brought it over, thank you!” Liu Qiaoqiao laughed, utterly shameless.
