After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 1018

1018 Weeping Bitterly
“No! Absolutely not! I’ll give you five dollars at most. Take it or leave! If you don’t want it, then get lost! Even if you get Su Yang to come here, I can’t give you 10 dollars! I only earn very little money every month working as a salvager. You might as well become a robber! At most, I won’t do this business anymore!” the landlord said furiously.

Seeing that the landlord was so determined, Qiao Yu did not ask for anything else. Since she could not get what she wanted, she would try it another way!
“Fine! Then you should give me a refund of the rent! I’ve only lived here for about a week, so you have to give me a refund! Refund me three dollars!” Qiao Yu said self-righteously as she stuck out three fingers.

“Little girl! Can you be reasonable! When I rented the room to Su Yang, I already told him that there’s no refund. You’re being shamelessly unreasonable now! This is what we have already agreed on in the beginning. I’m not giving you any refund,” the landlord said firmly.

He was already doing a good deed by accepting the trash in Qiao Yu’s room. He did not expect this little girl to push her luck. She was really the daughter-in-law of the Su family. Could it be that Su Yang’s taste in women was based on Old Madam Fan? This girl was exactly the same as Old Madam Fan! She was another scourge!

!!
Since both threats and bribes were useless against the landlord, Qiao Yu could only use her last resort.

“Oh heavens! Open your eyes and take a look! This person is bullying me! I’m really at my wits’ end! If it’s not for that bastard, I won’t have to beg you so humbly! Please take pity on me and give me a way out!” Qiao Yu fell on the ground and started wailing. Her voice was even louder than the volume of the public loudspeaker in the district.

The landlord was most afraid of people who made a scene. Such people were always full of lies and totally not trustworthy. She was ruining his reputation by saying that. The Su family’s reputation was already completely ruined, but he could not allow Qiao Yu to drag him down with them! His salvaging business depended on the support of his neighbors!

These neighbors were not good at most things, but they were all adept at spreading gossip. If your family bought a watermelon, by the time they spread the news around for you, what others heard might be that your family bought a truckload of watermelons! This was not something to joke about!

“Alright, alright! Just shut up! I’ll give it to you! Take the money and get lost! Don’t let me see you again in the future!” The landlord threw eight dollars to the ground angrily. While Qiao Yu was picking up the money, he quickly closed his room door and put a stick against the door handle, propping the other end up on the ground.

Even if Qiao Yu kicked up a fuss again, he would not care anymore. Giving her eight dollars was already the best he could do.

Qiao Yu picked up the loose change on the ground smugly and counted it many times to confirm that the total amount was eight dollars before she was willing to leave. She did not care about her reputation at all. Money was the most important thing. She had lost all concern for her dignity a long time ago.

She hopped and skipped as she made her way back. Now, she had about 15 dollars in cash. After deducting the cost of the bus ticket, it would only be enough for her to stay in Guang City for about half a month. There was no way she would be able to survive until the day she received her salary. She needed to ask Qiao Mei for more money! She also had to get Qiao Mei to pay for the bus ticket! Anyway, Qiao Mei had so much money, so what was it to her?

Just as Qiao Yu turned a corner, she saw Su Yang from afar, rushing towards her direction with Old Madam Fan in tow. The two of them were talking to each other as they walked. Could it be that Su Yang was here to interrogate her?

Qiao Yu hurriedly ran back the way she came and turned aside to hide in a small alley beside her. She held her breath and hid from the Su family’s mother and son duo.

“Are you sure that the b*tch has come this way? Why do I feel that the news is inaccurate?” Old Madam Fan asked in puzzlement.

“It’s true! That woman living opposite us just told us about it. Why don’t you remember all of a sudden? Later, let’s make sure we talk nicely to Qiao Yu and make her believe us. Then I still have a chance to marry her! I don’t mind what happened between her and my elder brother. As long as she’s willing to stay with me, we’re a family,” Su Yang said with a smile.

The two of them chatted happily as they walked past. Qiao Yu only dared to make her way out when there was no one on the entire street. She jogged all the way back to Qiao Mei’s house. She could not stay in the capital anymore and she must ask them to arrange for her to go to Guang City immediately.
