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

Chapter 93: Chapter 93: The Eldest Sister-in-law Who Eloped with Someone Else (Part 5)

”You... what nonsense are you speaking, my elder brother hasn’t contacted me.” A hint of panic flashed in Liu Baozhu’s eyes.

Could it be that this vile woman found out about her elder brother sending letters to her school, and that’s why she suddenly changed so much?

No, that’s impossible.

The letters were addressed to her teacher, it was because she asked the teacher that the teacher agreed, even classmates from the same village didn’t know her elder brother actually wrote to her and her younger brother every month.

He even sent ten yuan to her.

How did this vile woman find out?

Yuan Chun snorted coldly, pulled out a locked small box from a large box in the corner, ”You said this small box contains gifts from your classmates, mementos from them, and you never let me see it, I’m really curious, what’s inside?”

”Ah... You can’t touch my small box, give it back to me, hurry up, give it back.”

Liu Baozhu, in shock, rushed over, trying to snatch back the box.

Yuan Chun held the small box and ran out.

Liu Baozhu hurriedly chased after her, ”Vile woman, return my box to me, it’s my box. Vile woman, if you dare open my box, I’ll drive you out of the Liu Family, I’ll have my elder brother divorce you.”

Yuan Chun ran out of the Liu Family’s yard, and outside the gate, several women listening to the commotion had already gathered.

These past few days, with no farm work, the villagers rested at home.

The neighboring aunts and uncles had already heard the sounds of the Liu family’s quarrel, but the Liu family’s courtyard gate was closed, so they couldn’t enter and just stayed at the gate to listen.

However, what they didn’t know was that what they could hear was what Yuan Chun allowed them to hear.

What Yuan Chun didn’t allow, they wouldn’t be able to hear.

As Yuan Chun ran towards the gate, the lock on the small box fell off just as she exited the courtyard gate.

From the box, dozens of letters, dozens of remittance slips, and a stack of ten yuan bills fell out.

The address on them was all from a certain military unit.

Yuan Chun looked in disbelief, then was struck with grief and tears streamed down her face, ”Baozhu, are all these letters sent by your elder brother from the army?”

”For these three years, your elder brother has been out of touch, not writing me a single letter, and I thought he... sob, sob, how hard I’ve worked to support you two siblings in eating, clothing, and studying. Since he’s alive, how can he not think of me at all, secretly sending you letters and money behind my back?”

Yuan Chun feigned heartbreak, ”To allow him to have no burdens in the military, I gave up the opportunity to attend high school, coming to the Liu family to support his younger siblings, but how could your elder brother do something so ungrateful?”

”When your elder brother left, he repeatedly asked me to ensure you and Fuchai went to school, even though he knew I’d never done farm work at my own home, how difficult and hard it would be for me to support you two siblings with food, clothing, and education, he knew, yet he still demanded this of me... sob, sob...”

”But then, he secretly sends you letters and money without telling me, making me think that you and Fuchai would have no money for schooling, so I worked myself to earn work points. Look at me, since marrying into your Liu family, I’ve become emaciated, while you and Fuchai haven’t lost weight, even getting fatter than before. Why is that? It’s because even when I drank dishwater, I made sure you and Fuchai could eat their fill.”

”Sob, sob... But you and Fuchai, how could you be such thankless wretches, not mentioning a single word about your elder brother sending you money and letters, watching me faint from hunger and exhaustion, and not taking out the money to pay for school fees.”

”Do you all see me as an outsider, or as a free beast of burden?”
