Chapter 7742 We Can't Let Our Value Drop
Who is Luo Heng's mother? Not only did she say she didn't know, she also felt that Luo Yan's question was very presumptuous, asking about someone's income, which showed that she had some ulterior motives.
"Why bother asking how many interstellar coins someone earns?" Luo Heng's mother felt very good about herself: "I'm not that kind of person. I always like to ask about other people's income. They don't spend any of their money on us anyway, so it's better not to ask."
Luo Yan was speechless, choked by the words.
Zhang Jiaomei had been listening intently, hoping to hear some information about Luo Bi's income from Luo Heng's mother. However, after being rebuked by Luo Heng's mother, Zhang Jiaomei reluctantly prepared the river vegetables, secretly rolling her eyes at her.
Not daring to be direct, Luo Heng's mother took a straightforward approach and actually started arguing with her.
Zhang Jiaomei didn't even want to pick out the river vegetables; she was in a terrible mood.
Luo Yan was also in a bad mood. Luo Heng's mother secretly told the other sisters-in-law, "Zhang Jiaomei's family and Luo Bi's family don't get along."
Luo Heng's mother practically laid everything bare; she had come up with great effort, but she didn't care about this or that.
In a family, bad relationships are kept secret to avoid being ridiculed by other aristocratic families. Even aristocratic families of the same rank do not get along very well and secretly compete with each other.
Don't underestimate these women just because they aren't very capable; they are extremely ambitious and don't want to be laughed at by other prominent families of the same rank.
Luo Heng's mother meant that the two families didn't get along, which was why Zhang Jiaomei was so displeased with Luo Bi for getting so many river vegetables. Did anyone not see that?
The aunties chimed in, "We're all family, why bother?"
Luo Bi isn't here, but if Luo Bi were here, she'd be furious at this idiotic remark.
Luo Heng's mother wasn't angry, nor did she think there was anything wrong with what she said. She just liked to find a gossipy occasion, and the atmosphere and timing were just right, so Luo Heng's mother started talking non-stop.
Why is the relationship bad? Whose fault is it? Nobody is entirely innocent.
The other aunties also joined in, and surprisingly, their chatter actually sped up the work. Luo Yan didn't work; she was a gifted individual and had already been upgraded to a first-level talent master, so she couldn't lower her status.
Those with no status and who are not favored in the family are skilled in doing menial tasks.
Tong Wan didn't work either, so why should she have to work when Luo Yan and the others didn't? What's so great about being a talented person? Her family is well-off. Tong Wan invited Luo Yan to go to the market.
As evening approached, Luo Bi and Wen Xiao returned again to carry river vegetables.
Luo Jiao ran over: "Tong Wan and Luo Yan went to the market again."
Upon arriving at Shuixun Star, Tong Wan and the others took every opportunity to go to the market, since they couldn't stay at the encampment any longer. Luo Bi had an idea; there were some things she didn't want to tell Luo Rui and the others.
Luo Rui comes from the Imperial Star Clan and is protective of his clan, while Luo Bi is not.
"Why aren't you going?" Luo Bi asked Luo Jiao.
Luo Jiao said, "I enjoy watching the fishing of river delicacies."
She had gone on missions with her father, Luo Qiang, before, but didn't get much. This time, however, she had caught several kinds of rare river delicacies with the family, which she usually couldn't bear to eat.
Looking at these rare river delicacies, Luo Jiao didn't want to go anywhere.
"Go and see for yourself," Luo Bi said meaningfully, smiling. "Is it for tea and shopping? Or is there something else that's attracting you? Don't you think they go to the market a little too often?"
Luo Jiao was taken aback: "What's going on?"
"Why don't you come to the market with me and you'll find out?" Luo Bi said no more.
Luo Jiao thought about it for a moment and decided to go to the market with everyone tomorrow; she loved gossip. (End of Chapter)
