Chapter 113: Chapter 112: Pay Back the Money

”Shut up. What does this have to do with Zhong Shan?”

Xu Dali grabbed his tobacco pipe and rapped it on the table, his voice laced with anger.

”My daughter-in-law isn’t well. She nearly had a miscarriage, so she should be eating a few extra eggs.”

”Zhong Shan, you two keep the eggs and eat them.”

With Xu Dali having the final say, the matter was settled. The eldest son and Chen Xiaoli said nothing, just lowered their heads and ate.

Even Wang Xiumin didn’t dare to cross Xu Dali at a time like this.

After the meal, however, Wang Xiumin felt sorry for her daughter and boiled two eggs for Xu Wenwan anyway.

These days, every household was allowed to raise two hens, so they had their own eggs at home.

Eating eggs was a luxury in this era, so they only had them on rare occasions.

Wang Xiumin unlocked the cupboard with a key, took out two eggs to boil, and prepared to go and coax her daughter in a little while.

「Inside the room.」

Xu Wenwan’s excitement had faded. Now, all she felt was a fiery gnawing in her stomach; she was starving.

Just then, Chen Xiumin walked in, carrying two eggs and a mixed-flour steamed bun.

”Wenwan, you wanted eggs, didn’t you? Mother boiled some for you!”

Xu Wenwan stared at the eggs in her mother’s hands and swallowed hard.

Seeing Xu Wenwan’s covetous gaze, Chen Xiumin handed the eggs over.

Xu Wenwan didn’t stand on ceremony; she just took them and started eating.

She was just so hungry, and she’d been craving eggs.

Seeing her daughter act this way, Chen Xiumin’s heart ached for her.

”Wenwan, Mother knows you used to have a good life, but now that you’re back home, you need to find a way to fit in with our family.”

Xu Wenwan frowned. ”Mom, how many times have I told you? It’s ’Mom.’ ’Mother, Mother’... it sounds so horrible.”

Chen Xiumin’s head throbbed.

’So many children in this village called their mothers ’Mother’ from the time they were little. Only her daughter had to be so particular about it.’

”Alright, it’s Mom’s fault.”

”But what I’m saying is for your own good. You can’t keep acting like this.”

When Xu Wenwan saw Chen Xiumin was about to lecture her, she immediately grew impatient. ”Alright, Mom, I know. I’m tired, you can leave now!”

Seeing that Xu Wenwan was being completely unreceptive, Chen Xiumin could only turn and leave.

’Give it time,’ she thought. ’My daughter will eventually come to her senses!’

Gu Jiaojiao was unaware of the commotion at the village chief’s house.

She finished brewing the herbal medicine and left it to settle. By the time she was done, it was already three in the afternoon.

She decided to go back to her room to rest for a bit.

「At the front gate.」

Li Hongmei had been loitering there for a while.

News that the scent of cooking meat was wafting from Zhao Tiezhu’s and Chen JianShe’s homes had spread throughout the entire village.

Naturally, the news reached the Educated Youth Point, and Li Hongmei heard it as well.

The ones eating meat today were all people who had helped Leng Yuan yesterday.

Everyone was saying that Leng Yuan must have encountered something big on the mountain. Otherwise, how could there be so much meat? Maybe it was a small wild boar!

Li Hongmei hadn’t eaten meat in a long time, and the craving was intense.

She snuck down the mountain while the others were out foraging to see if Gu Jiaojiao was really eating pork.

’If it’s true, then I’ll have some leverage over Gu Jiaojiao.’

’And then, I’ll be able to get some benefit from it one way or another.’

She first went to the gate of Gu Jiaojiao’s house, pressed her ear against it, and listened for a moment. Hearing nothing, she was about to push the gate open to go inside.

But she pushed, and it didn’t open.

Li Hongmei couldn’t help but mutter to herself, ’Locking the gate in broad daylight? Something’s definitely fishy.’

She couldn’t resist leaning in to peek through the crack in the gate, but at Leng Yuan’s house, the gap was too tight. The iron gate was set flush against the wall, and she couldn’t see anything.

She wouldn’t give up.

She started jumping frantically, trying to peek into the yard to see if there was any pork inside.

However, she was only 1.58 meters tall, and even when she jumped, she barely reached 1.7 meters. The iron gate at Leng Yuan’s house was over two meters high, the only one like it in the village.

After busying herself for a long while, Li Hongmei had seen nothing and only managed to work up a sweat.

She couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

In the end, she simply decided to knock on the main gate.

Gu Jiaojiao had just gotten back to her room and sat down, slumping into the armchair.

Leng Yuan had crafted the armchair himself. It was polished smooth and glossy to the touch, and carved with intricate patterns that made the otherwise ordinary chair seem exceptionally high-quality.

It used to be Leng Yuan’s throne.

Ever since Gu Jiaojiao had arrived, the seat had become hers.

The armchair was rather large, so Gu Jiaojiao had covered it with a thick cushion. Curled up in it now, she was so happy she wanted to hum a little tune.

But just as she put her feet up, someone knocked on the gate, and she couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

She went out, opened the gate, and saw Li Hongmei.

”Hong Mei, are you here to pay me back? You still owe me two yuan. Hand it over!”

Li Hongmei: ”...”
