Chapter 539: Smashing Her Treasures
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Such an unreasonable person was truly rare.
However, this person happened to be their own grandmother, which was quite frustrating.
Mei Yan was still young, and just the mention of the court made him nervous, rendering him unable to speak the words stuck in his throat.
The elderly lady gave them a disdainful glance, snorted triumphantly, and seemed about to move the cake in front of her to enjoy it alone.
Mei Yan was so anxious that his eyes turned red, subconsciously seeking help from his brother and sister.
Mei Jing’s fists clenched. If the person in front of them hadn’t been their elder, he would have acted already.
Mei Feng took a deep breath. Reluctant to cause trouble for Mei Shu, he softened his tone and said, “Grandma…”
Before he could finish, Mei Shu directly smashed a bowl in front of the elderly lady.
The elderly lady was startled and cursed at her, “Are you crazy? If you have the guts to smash bowls, why don’t you have the guts to smash them on me? Go ahead, hit me! If you beat me to death, the police will shoot you!”
Her unreasonable behavior was infuriating.
Mei Feng reached for a bowl, but Mei Shu snatched it away.
“This is ours, not hers,”
Confused, Mei Feng was about to ask what she meant.
But Mei Shu didn’t explain further. She went to the kitchen and living room, returning with many fragile porcelain items.
The elderly lady stared warily at the items in Mei Shu’s hands and realized they were her favorite ornaments and daily items!
When Wang Yue and Mei Mu were still around, she often stayed here. Although most of her things were not in this villa, many of her belongings were stored here.
Now, Mei Shu was holding those fragile items.
The elderly lady’s heart trembled. She raised her hand to stop her, “What are you doing? Mei Shu! You’re wasting money! Stop smashing them. That vase cost me tens of thousands of dollars!”
Mei Shu looked at the vase in her hand playfully and, when Grandma wasn’t paying attention, smashed it at her feet.
Afraid she might actually hit her, the elderly lady jumped to the other side of the dining table, wailing, “Mei Shu! Are you crazy? Are you trying to destroy the house?”
She wasn’t like other housewives who managed their homes frugally. When her son became wealthy, she, relying on Mei Yun’s filial piety, indulged in buying luxurious but useless items, which gave her a false sense of accomplishment.
It seemed that by buying these items and displaying them at home, she was no different from those wealthy women, possessing something to show off.
But in reality, she was insatiable and had nothing to do with being a noblewoman.
Seeing Mei Shu pick up another fragile celadon teacup, the elderly lady’s eyes bulged, and she threatened with authority, “You dare!”
Mei Shu didn’t care about her at all, and still smashed the cups at her feet. “You’re my own grandmother, so what if your granddaughter accidentally breaks a few cups? We’re family, we should understand and tolerate each other, don’t you think?”
This damn girl was using Feng Wei’s words to shut her up!
The old lady was furious but helpless, only able to cry out with a mournful face, “Stop smashing, stop smashing! This is simply ruining things!”
“If you don’t want me to smash them,” Mei Shu said. “Then take these things away now, or I’ll smash them every time 1 see them in the future!”
The old lady raised her eyebrows, stood with her hands on her hips, and threatened in a domineering manner, “Dare you!”
Before she could finish, another glass vase shattered on the ground.
The old woman’s face turned red with anger. Ignoring the broken pieces on the ground, she hurriedly approached Mei Shu, snatching the remaining items from her arms, holding them as if they were treasures, and left the dining room.
Mei Shu followed her out and leaned against the wall with her arms crossed. She smirked. “Be careful. Don’t take anything from our house, and don’t leave your treasures behind. After we finish dinner, if 1 see anything of yours, you know the consequences!”
The elderly lady, who was busy collecting her things from the living room, turned around and glared at her when she heard her voice. “You brat, don’t be smug. You’ll suffer when your father comes back from the hospital!”
“That I will eagerly await.” Mei Shu turned around, not talcing it seriously, and walked into the living room. As she walked, she waved her hand behind her and said, “Be careful when you move them. I’ll come out to inspect later.”
Behind her, the old lady spat fiercely at her retreating figure.
Unfortunately, Mei Shu didn’t even glance in her direction. She walked into the living room alone, leaving the old woman seething with impotent rage.
In no time, she finished tidying up the items and called a servant over, haughtily commanding, “You, help me move these things, and then have the driver take me back!”
In the past, she always behaved like this at home, because her son had the ability to earn big money and afford specialized maids to serve her.
However, this time, no one paid attention to what she said..
