Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales

Chapter 114: Chapter 114: The Eldest Sister-in-Law Who Eloped with Someone Else 26

Mrs. Qin stayed at Yunqiao Team for three days before her second sister-in-law called her back, saying that her second brother had a carpentry job and needed to go out for two days, so Mrs. Qin should return home once.

After Mrs. Qin left, she didn’t come back.

Living alone, Yuan Chun felt much freer. Whenever she wanted to eat meat, she’d take some out of the Jade Gourd Space ready-made. No smell spread out, and no one knew she had meat every meal.

That day, Yuan Chun had just returned from work when she saw a large group of people gathered at the gate of her courtyard from a distance.

Before she got closer, a sharp-eyed woman noticed her and called out, ”Yuan Chun is back, come quickly, Liu Fusheng is back with his new wife to see you, saying they have come to apologize and brought a lot of gifts.”

”Yuan Chun, you’re finally back. Open the courtyard door and let everyone come in and talk. Everyone has been waiting for you for so long.”

”Yuan Chun, they say it’s better to unravel enemies than to tie new knots. Since Liu Fusheng and his wife have come to apologize, you should forgive them. From now on, you can treat each other like friends.”

”Yes, yes, we all live in the same village, there’s no deep hatred worth worrying about when you’re constantly seeing each other.”

”Although you suffered at the Liu Family for three years, Liu Fusheng compensated you with a thousand yuan, which should be enough.”

”Tsk tsk tsk, well, you’ve earned a thousand yuan from the Old Liu Family in three years. Yuan Chun, your suffering wasn’t in vain, you’ve profited.”

”Profited indeed. If someone gave me a thousand yuan, I’d be willing to take hardship for not just three, but even ten years.”

...

Those gathered to watch the spectacle were maidens and aunts who didn’t have to work, and some had particularly nasty tongues.

Yuan Chun couldn’t be bothered dealing with this group of shrews.

She moved closer, looked at Liu Fusheng, and said coldly and indifferently, ”Liu Fusheng, our affair is over. From now on, you and your wife had better not appear in front of me. As for that thousand yuan, it was your due compensation and my rightful dues. You ruined my life, my lifetime is worth more than a thousand yuan, so don’t think you’ve compensated significantly. Compared to my lifelong happiness, this money is far from enough.”

Liu Fusheng’s face turned dark green, ”Qin Yuanchun, I came to resolve your misunderstanding of me, but since you don’t want to see me, we’ll leave now.”

As Liu Fusheng said this, he placed down the gifts and started to pull Zhen Fang away.

Yuan Chun said, ”Take your things with you. I’d be afraid I’d choke to death eating them.”

The netted bag was filled with malted milk extract, canned fruit, White Rabbit milk candy, brown sugar, white sugar... all good stuff, making the eyes of the maidens and aunts watching turn red.

Someone said, ”Oh dear, Yuan Chun, are you foolish, pushing out good things delivered to your door. Do you think you’re being foolish?”

”Not foolish, feeding a thankless wolf to the Old Liu Family?”

”Hahaha...”

In the face of everyone’s ridicule, Liu Fusheng kept his face unchanged, pursed his lips, and still wanted to pull his wife away.

Zhen Fang, however, was so mad her face turned green and white. She threw off Liu Fusheng’s hand, stormed over to Yuan Chun, and scolded, ”Qin Yuanchun, Fusheng was forced to leave the military thanks to you, and you still won’t let him go. What exactly do you want?”

”I’m warning you, we came to apologize to you as a gesture of respect. Don’t be ungrateful, do you really think that if we don’t reconcile with you, we can’t live in this village?”

Yuan Chun sneered, ”Liu Fusheng leaving the military was his own doing? How did it become my fault?”

”And what have I done to not let you go?”

”Whether you can stay in the village is your business, not mine at all.”

”Liu Fusheng, Zhen Fang, I also warn you, from now on let’s keep our bridges separate and roads apart, don’t pin everything on me.”

Yuan Chun opened the courtyard door, turned back, and said to the onlookers, ”Ladies and aunts, I’ve just returned from work and I’m tired, so I won’t be inviting you all in to sit.”

Then, with a bang, the courtyard door closed.
