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

Chapter 581: Chapter 581: Counterattack Against the Original Female Lead 16

Moreover, Wang Shufang is usually domineering and often bullies them; they don’t want to offend the village chief’s family because of her.

Wan Qianqian anxiously said, ”So many eyes saw Wang Shufang being held by Sha Er, her reputation is tarnished. The Wang Family will surely force her to marry Sha Er, right?”

Chen Hong chimed in, ”Wang Shufang wouldn’t be so foolish to agree, would she?”

Yuan Chun said, ”It’s no longer about whether she agrees; it’s whether the Wang Family will let her go. After Sha Er saved her from the river, she not only didn’t thank him but also slapped him, then pushed him back into the river and fought with the village chief’s wife. Because Sha Er jumped into the river to save her, the Wang Family suffered such a loss. They won’t let her off unless she marries Sha Er.”

”Oh, how come there’s so much going on.” Chen Hong regretted having napped through the afternoon and missed the scene by the river.

Cao Meng said, ”At the time, Wang Shufang and the village chief’s wife were fighting fiercely. It was so brutal; I didn’t dare go near.”

”I wonder how Wang Shufang is doing now.” Wan Qianqian worriedly said; she shared a room with Wang Shufang and was closer to her than the other female Knowledge Youth.

Cao Meng pursed her lips and said, ”You’d better stop worrying about her and worry about us instead. After this incident with Wang Shufang, the villagers will look down on us Knowledge Youth even more.”

”We have to wash mustard greens again, and my hands are already peeling.” Chen Hong looked at her chapped hands with pity, ”The weather is getting colder; how will we get through the winter?”

”We’ll get through it as we always have. I heard some Knowledge Youth assigned to the Northeast could stay indoors for half a year without working in winter. How lucky they are.”

”It’s still cold there, I heard that the breath freezes when you exhale in the Northeast. Even if there’s no work, you can’t go outside.”

”That’s still better than washing vegetables in the river in winter.”

”Stop complaining, or the villagers will say we female Knowledge Youth are being dramatic.”

At these words, the female Knowledge Youth fell silent.

In the afternoon, Yuan Chun squatted for hours, her hands numb and cold from washing vegetables, her legs stiff and unable to stand straight.

She secretly took a Revitalizing Pill, feeling much better afterward.

That night, it was vegetable porridge again. Yuan Chun drank it and went to fetch hot water to wash up.

Wan Qianqian said, ”Wang Shufang hasn’t come back yet; do you think something’s happened to her?”

”I’ll go check.” Fan Cheng put down his bowl and ran to the clinic. The old Chinese doctor there told him Wang Shufang had been carried away by Wang Daquan and his brother.

Fan Cheng, in anger, blurted out, ”Doctor Sun, how could you let the Wang Family take Wang Shufang? She’s from our Knowledge Youth Courtyard.”

Doctor Sun glared at him angrily, ”What were you people from the Knowledge Youth Courtyard doing earlier? Now that she’s been taken, why are you yelling at me? Do I owe you anything?”

Fan Cheng immediately apologized, ”Sorry, Doctor Sun, I was just upset and misspoke. I’ll go to the Wang Family and check.”

”Hmph, you Knowledge Youth are always causing trouble.”

Doctor Sun had little patience for these troublemaking outsiders. With a loud bang, he shut the clinic door.

Fan Cheng then ran to the Wang family, but once at the gate, he didn’t dare knock.

He loitered at the Wang family’s gate for a long while before sheepishly returning to the Knowledge Youth Courtyard, intending to rally the Knowledge Youth to demand Wang Shufang’s return from the Wang family.
