Chapter 7731 Searching for the Clan Head
Chapter 7731 Searching for the Clan Head
The members of the direct lineage each had their own schemes and ulterior motives.
They even dared to dream of having a little bit of every kind of river delicacy.
After listening for a few minutes, Luo Jiao ran to Luo Bi and said, "Sister Luo Bi, the aunties all want the river delicacies."
Luo Bi wasn't surprised at all: "They also want high-grade ginseng."
The aunties want so many things—fish, shrimp, crabs—it would be great to give them a little of everything, but is that even possible? Ha, they're just dreaming; they're so greedy.
The head of the Luo family is not like Old Master Luo. Old Master Luo is biased and soft-hearted. As long as the clansmen flatter him a few times and open their mouths, Old Master Luo will make them happy. He has no ability to handle clan affairs at all.
Luo Jiao: "..."
"Perhaps," Luo Jiao said, "the head of the family, Uncle, will give the aunts a handful of river delicacies to try."
Luo Bi then asked her, "How many times have you eaten this?"
Luo Jiao: "...I've eaten it once."
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Luo Jiao visited relatives and friends with her parents. They made a plate of boiled river melon seeds, which Luo Jiao really wanted to eat. Liang Meng and Luo Qiang both glanced at her, worried that she was tempted.
Luo Jiao noticed her parents' gaze and only ate a few river melon seeds.
Luo Bi fell silent. Luo Jiao understood what she meant. Her parents were quite capable; her father, Luo Qiang, held the rank of lieutenant colonel in the Fengyao Empire. Even with her background, she only ate there once.
The aunties still dare to covet Hezhen? They're dreaming!
Sure enough, when Luo Chang's mother saw the head of the Luo family and Luo Tang return from the river, she hesitated for a moment, then got up and went to the living room. Luo Yini's mother was prepared to wait, and once Luo Chang's mother succeeded, she would also go to find the head of the family.
Twenty meters from the riverbank, Luo Jiao quickly called out to Luo Bi, "Go find the head of the family."
Luo Bi loved watching the excitement, and with a smile, she strode off, saying, "Let's go take a look."
Luo Jiao, ever the gossip, quickly followed. In the living room, the Luo family head and Luo Tang were discussing how to increase the fishing. Looking up, the Luo family head thought something had happened to Luo Chang's mother.
Then, Luo Bi and Luo Jiao also strolled over.
Patriarch Luo: "..."
This habit of watching the spectacle! What can I say to him?
“Tong Wan loves to eat river delicacies.” Luo Chang’s mother was quite eloquent: “I’ll tell the head of the family that I’ll take some river delicacies from the basin for Tong Wan later. The head of the family knows that I’m in a difficult position. If Tong Wan is happy with her food, she won’t find fault with me.”
It means that it wasn't that she was greedy, but that she had her own reasons and had no other choice.
Luo Bi listened with a smile, but those who knew her could tell that her smile carried disdain. They knew it was the same old trick; she never changed her approach. Luo Chang's mother was keen on exploiting personal relationships and saving face.
Luo Tang leaned back on the sofa, not wanting to say a word. It's true what they say, poor relatives are no good. They don't even know how to beg for money. She didn't want ordinary beast meat; she only asked for the ones she wanted.
She could negotiate on the scraps of river vegetables, but she actually made an outrageous demand for the whole river delicacies.
When He Zhen was first captured yesterday, the direct descendants of the clan had the wild idea of getting involved. The head of the Luo family refused, and when he saw that there was no chance, he asked He Zhen to eat it.
The head of the family has made this decision, and everything has been divided up. Luo Tang also wants to get it for free.
Doesn't Luo Tang have his reasons? He's still recovering from a genetic breakdown, so he needs to eat better. Everyone has a ton of reasons to complain, but Luo Chang's wife is the most unhappy one.
The head of the Luo family remained expressionless: "Your family's problems are nothing to brag about. Go home and sort them out yourselves."
Luo Bi: "..." (End of Chapter)
