Chapter 146 Xu Wanrong's Obsession
Xu Wanrong pursed her lips, suppressed the anger in her heart, walked into the bedroom with her mother, and began to pack her luggage.
Xu Wanrong opened the closet and looked at the once luxurious clothes. Her hands could not help but tremble slightly. She gritted her teeth, picked up a skirt, and was about to put it in the box, but was snatched away by a servant beside her.
"You are not allowed to take any of these clothes!" The servant's voice was sharp and harsh.
Xu Wanrong raised her head and glared at him, "These are my clothes, why can't I take them away?"
The servant sneered, "Humph, do you really take yourself seriously? These things were bought by the master, and now that the master is gone, the lady said that you are not qualified to take any of them away!"
Xu Wanrong was so angry that her face turned pale. She clenched her fists tightly, her nails almost digging into her flesh. "Don't go too far!"
At this time, Xu's mother hurried over and held Xu Wanrong, tears in her eyes, "Wanrong, don't fight with them, we can't afford to offend them."
Xu Wanrong looked at her mother's haggard face, her heart ached, tears welled up in her eyes. She took a deep breath, turned around and continued to clean up.
"Oh, a pheasant, you really think you are a phoenix? You don't even look at your own identity, you really have no self-awareness at all." Another servant said sarcastically.
Xu Wanrong ignored their ridicule and quietly put some daily necessities into the box. When she picked up a small jewelry box, the servant rushed over again and snatched it away.
"Don't even think about these jewels!"
"This is what my father gave me!" Xu Wanrong couldn't help but shout.
"Haha, your father? Don't be naive. Your father is just a son-in-law who lives off his wife. Everything he has was given by our madam. That's all? He even dared to betray our madam and keep a shameless mistress! Bah, what a pair of scum and bitch!" The servant's face was full of contempt.
If the son-in-law hadn't infiltrated the family business too deeply and their wives hadn't realized it too late, how could they have allowed the mother and daughter to live comfortably!
When Xu Wanrong heard this, the anger in her heart erupted like a volcano. She rushed towards the servant and wanted to attack him, but was stopped by other servants.
"Wanrong, don't be impulsive!" Xu's mother cried and hugged Xu Wanrong.
Xu Wanrong broke free from her mother's embrace, her eyes red, "You bastards, I won't let you go!"
The servants laughed. "You? Don't you even consider your own worth?"
Xu Wanrong looked at these ugly faces, her heart filled with despair and hatred. She collapsed on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
Mother Xu helped Xu Wanrong up and said softly, "Wanrong, don't be sad. As long as we are together, we will always find a way to survive."
Xu Wanrong wiped her tears, stood up, and gritted her teeth to continue packing. Her hands kept shaking, and the pain in her heart increased with each item she packed.
"Tsk tsk tsk, look at how miserable he is. So pitiful!" The servants sneered.
Xu Wanrong glared at them fiercely, "You will be punished!"
After packing for a while, Xu Wanrong found that they could take almost nothing away except some worn-out clothes and simple daily necessities. The once luxurious jewelry and brand-name bags could only be left in this place full of memories.
Xu Wanrong walked to the dressing table and picked up a photo frame, which contained a photo of the three of them. At that time, her father had a happy smile on his face, but now, everything has changed.
"Dad, it would be great if you were still here..." Xu Wanrong murmured to herself.
At this time, a servant came over and snatched the photo frame, "You are not allowed to bring such things!"
Xu Wanrong rushed over like crazy, trying to snatch the photo frame back, "Give it back to me, it's mine! Mine!"
As they were fighting for it, the photo frame fell to the ground, and the glass shattered all over the floor. Xu Wanrong looked at the broken photo frame, feeling heartbroken.
"No!" she cried desperately.
Xu's mother came over quickly and hugged Xu Wanrong, "Wanrong, forget it, forget it..."
Xu Wanrong squatted on the ground and burst into tears, while the servants watched from the side without a trace of pity.
After a long time, Xu Wanrong slowly stopped crying. She wiped her face with her hands, slowly stood up, and said stubbornly: "Mom, let's go, let's leave this damn place."
Xu's mother nodded timidly, looking sad. The mother and daughter each carried a simple luggage bag and walked out of the villa with heavy steps under the supervision of the servants.
Xu Wanrong held her mother's hand tightly and said fiercely: "From now on, we must live well!"
Mother Xu looked up at her daughter, her eyes full of mixed emotions, including love, guilt, and more confusion about the future, but she still responded, "Well, we will definitely get through this."
The sun shines brightly on them, but it can't warm their cold and desperate hearts. The future is confusing, and they really don't know where to go next!
"Mom, let's find a cheap rental house to live in first." Xu Wanrong said as she pulled her mother's arm, her steps slightly hurried.
The mother didn't say anything, but nodded silently. The mother and daughter dragged their simple luggage and asked everyone they met for information on renting a house.
After much effort, I finally found a dilapidated rental house. The environment of the house was terrible, dirty and messy.
Xu Wanrong took a deep breath, forced herself to open the door despite the discomfort, and a pungent musty smell immediately hit her in the face.
The mother looked at the shabby room and couldn't stop her tears from flowing down again. She choked up and said, "It's all my fault. I made you live like this with me."
Xu Wanrong quickly hugged her mother and comforted her gently, "Mom, don't say that. As long as we work hard, things will get better." After hearing her daughter's words, Xu's mother couldn't stop sobbing, "My poor daughter, you have never suffered this kind of hardship before."
Xu Wanrong bit her lip and pretended to be strong and said, "Mom, don't cry. What's the point of relying on others in the past? From now on, we have to rely on ourselves." As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and began to clean the room.
Xu's mother stood aside, at a loss, muttering: "How can I clean this? It's so dirty."
Xu Wanrong looked back at her mother and frowned, "Mom, don't just stand there, come and clean up together. Do you still want a place to sleep?"
Although Xu's mother was somewhat reluctant, she still took the rag and started to work. The mother and daughter began to clean up busily. Xu Wanrong was so tired that she was out of breath, but she held her breath and worked without stopping. Xu's mother stopped from time to time to rest and secretly wiped away her tears.
Xu Wanrong was flustered and slammed the rag in her hand onto the table, shouting, "Mom, are you annoying?" Xu's mother was startled. She stared at Xu Wanrong with wide eyes and was speechless for a long time.
Xu Wanrong realized that there was something wrong with her attitude, but she was in such an irritable mood that she didn't want to apologize at all. She picked up the rag angrily and wiped the table hard with her hands, making a "sizzling" sound!
Mother Xu knew that her daughter was in a bad mood, so she wiped the tears from her face and started working silently!
After the efforts of the mother and daughter, the room finally took shape. Xu Wanrong sat down on the shabby bed, breathing heavily, and said, "Mom, let's leave it at that for today. I'll find a way to do some work to earn money tomorrow."
Xu's mother sat down next to her and did not mention what happened just now. Instead, she asked with a worried look on her face: "What can we do?"
Xu Wanrong kept fanning herself with her hands, her eyes revealing a hint of stubbornness: "There is always a way out, we can always find it!"
At night, the mother and daughter lay on the uncomfortable bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time. Xu Wanrong looked at the dark ceiling and said to herself: She, Xu Wanrong, is a time traveler who traveled back to ancient times and back again. She is not so easy to be defeated. Just wait and see, one day, she will continue to live a good life that everyone envies!
……
After settling down, Xu Wanrong began to look for a job, but because she did not have a high degree and outstanding skills, she encountered obstacles everywhere.
One day, Xu Wanrong returned to her rental house exhausted. Her mother asked, "Wanrong, how is your job search going?"
Xu Wanrong shook her head. "Mom, I haven't found the right one yet."
The mother said worriedly: "What should we do? We are running out of money."
Xu Wanrong gritted her teeth. "Mom, don't worry, I'll think of a way."
At this moment, Xu Wanrong's cell phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number. "Hello?"
"Xu Wanrong, I'm Zhang Li. I heard that your current situation is not very good? I have a job that is particularly suitable for you, but the nature of the job is a bit special. Do you want to come and try it?"
Xu Wanrong heard these words that seemed to show concern but were actually ill-intentioned, but she seemed to be completely unaware of the deep meaning behind them. She was so excited that her voice became a little higher: "I'm willing, Zhang Li, thank you! After all, you are better! Mumumumu!"
After hanging up the phone, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, and she smiled coldly in her heart: Oh, you are so bold to even think about me! But if you use it well, it might be a way out!
