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

Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Remarried Widow 17

After Yuan Chun cooled herself down with the fan, she looked at Zhao Chunhua, ”Zhao Chunhua, you suggested coming here to pick mushrooms today, right? Tell me, why did we encounter such a despicable pair of mother and son here?”

”I... I don’t know, I...”

Zhao Chunhua initially wanted to say it was Mei Yuan Chun who had arranged it with Second Cui in advance, but with Sanfeng glaring at her from the side, Zhao Chunhua didn’t dare to lie.

Zhao Chunhua dared to offend Yuan Chun but not Sanfeng; after all, she was the daughter-in-law of the team leader.

Yuan Chun cursed, ”You ’don’t know’? Your mother-in-law has tried many times to match me with the Cui family, but I’ve always refused. Today, you proposed to come to Lion Forest to pick mushrooms, you encountered Second Cui sneakily following us, and Granny Cui brought some women up the mountain to catch us. Ha! You say you don’t know?”

”Fine, then why don’t you all go to the police station and tell the truth? Let me tell you, if you want to ruin my reputation, let’s see if you have what it takes.”

”Sanfeng, let’s tie this man up and take him to the police station. He’s sneaking around following us, trying to harm me. That’s being a hooligan! Remember, being a hooligan means facing serious consequences.”

Yuan Chun took a rope from the basket and walked towards Second Cui.

Zhao Chunhua was anxious, ”Yuan Chun, you’re mistaken, truly mistaken. Second Cui wasn’t being a hooligan towards you; he was here to pick mushrooms too. We are all locals, it’s unnecessary to escalate this to the police station over such a trivial matter.”

The locals are all afraid of people in uniforms.

As soon as they heard the mention of the police station, the group became frightened.

The women who came with Granny Cui were clever; they quickly realized how they had been tricked by Granny Cui to come up the mountain and understood how malicious the Cui family was, scheming against the Red Star Team’s Mei Yuan Chun here.

They just wanted to use them as tools.

They each said, ”Granny Cui, this is a matter between your family and the people of the Red Star Team; I’m not getting involved. I have things to attend to at home, I’m leaving first.”

”My grandson is waiting for me to take care of him, I’m leaving too.”

”My grandson will come home from school soon, I need to go back and cook.”

A few women ran off quickly, fearing that if they lingered, they might also get tied up by Mei Yuan Chun and sent to the police station.

Yuan Chun, holding the rope, tied Second Cui up; Second Cui tried to resist but was pinned to the ground by Yuan Chun, who tied his hands.

Granny Cui wanted to help her son but was pulled away by Sanfeng and Wang Pan Di.

Zhao Chunhua tried to help Granny Cui and Second Cui, but Sanfeng threatened, ”Zhao Chunhua, you’re part of our Red Star Team, don’t turn against us. Otherwise, your Li family will have to move out of Red Star Village. Our village can’t tolerate traitors.”

Wang Pan Di scorned, ”Zhao Chunhua, you and your mother-in-law are too malicious, helping outsiders to scheme against Yuan Chun. Luckily, Yuan Chun wasn’t tricked; otherwise, she would be ruined by you two.”

Sanfeng chimed in, ”It’s not just ruining Yuan Chun’s life, her four children would also be harmed by you two. You don’t think about it, the Cui family is like a pit of fire. Second Cui’s previous wife was driven to death by Granny Cui’s family. Everyone knows, if Yuan Chun really married into the Cui family, would she live well? If her four children went to the Cui family, would they survive?”

Zhao Chunhua’s eyes filled with tears, ”I don’t know, I haven’t schemed against Yuan Chun, I don’t know anything. My mother-in-law said there were lots of mushrooms here, telling me to gather some today to make mushroom egg soup tonight, and said Yuan Chun is good at picking mushrooms, asking me to invite her along. I truly didn’t expect Second Cui to appear here too.”
