Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 272: 272 days of thunder and lightning

”Bullshit, aren’t all wives like this? Is she so delicate?

What retribution? Let it come at me.”

Su Yuanyuan was really pissed off, thinking about having a lightning bolt strike this old man. She couldn’t believe a grown man could say such a thing, it was truly eye-opening.

As soon as Xiang Zhiqiang’s father finished speaking, a lightning bolt struck down and directly hit him.

The scene became especially quiet. Feng Baoshan and Accountant Zhang happened to come in and witnessed the scene.

This was a bolt out of the blue, and people nowadays are very fearful of such things.

At this point, everyone in the Xiang Family was scared, especially Mrs. Xiang, who was so frightened she wet herself.

Su Yuanyuan smiled at Xiang Zhiqiang’s father.

”How is it? Isn’t it true that someone above is watching what we do?”

Xiang Zhiqiang’s father was truly scared, but he was still unyielding.

”Bullshit.”

After saying this, a second lightning bolt struck down. This time, he collapsed on the ground.

The scene became even quieter.

Feng Baoshan was truly stunned, wondering what kind of immoral things the Xiang Family had done to deserve this.

Su Yuanyuan looked at the Xiang Family, who were no longer arrogant lying on the ground, and then turned to Accountant Zhang.

”Accountant Zhang, is this the good family you were talking about?”

Zhang Haisheng felt extremely embarrassed being questioned; this cousin seemed honest and Qiangzi also seemed hardworking, but how could they be like this?

”Accountant Zhang, my daughter is also a treasure of our family, not someone to come and slave away, nor a punching bag for the Xiang Family.

When I wasn’t at home, brother, tell us how Accountant Zhang assured our family and how he described the Xiang Family.”

Zhao Qingxiang repeated Accountant Zhang’s words verbatim.

”Accountant Zhang, we don’t blame you, it’s our family’s misfortune, our eyes weren’t open. We called you here today mainly to show you what the honest and kind family you thought was really like.”

Zhang Haisheng felt utterly ashamed. ”Xiao Su, I didn’t handle things properly, I was wrong, if the Zhao Family has any requests, just say so.”

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, ”Accountant Zhang, let’s not put it that way; you’ve seen the character of the Xiang Family. We will deal with the Xiang Family directly, and not make it difficult for you.”

Feng Baoshan stood aside, looking at Su Yuanyuan. This girl was truly amazing, now Zhang Haisheng couldn’t say anything.

”Elder sister, what are your thoughts? It’s really not worth getting angry over this, it’s your fault too; if you had spoken up earlier, the Xiang Family wouldn’t have dared no matter how bold they were.”

”From now on, I, Zhao Yanping, have nothing to do with the Xiang Family.”

Zhao Yanli spoke up, ”That’s not enough; the things brought over when she got married must be fully compensated, and for my elder sister working like a horse these past two years at the Xiang Family, her wages from these two years should be compensated at one-fifth, which would be fair anywhere.

Accountant Zhang, how much money has the Xiang Family taken from the farm, you must know, right?

Also, one-fifth of the family’s grain should go to my sister.”

If it weren’t for the lightning strikes earlier, Xiang Zhiqiang’s father would have lost his temper already, but now he didn’t dare.

”Xiao Ping, Xiao Ping, don’t be like this, I don’t agree with you leaving. You are my wife.” Xiang Zhiqiang sat up, trying to stand up and go to Zhao Yanping.

Zhao Yanli hit Xiang Zhiqiang’s shoulder with a hoe handle, ”Your wife? Now you remember she’s your wife? What were you doing earlier?

You’re all dressed up but are worse than a piece of pork, heartless like a wolf.

Still dreaming of having a Zhao Family girl?”

”Xiao Li, I really know I was wrong, I swear I’ll never do it again?”

”Swear? Your swearing is no better than farting? You’re not afraid of getting struck by lightning, but I’m worried God might get tired?”

Su Yuanyuan laughed out loud, those words were powerful.

Xiang Zhiqiang recalled the lightning-strike scene and shivered with fear.

”Sister-in-law, you and Sister Xiao Jing go pack things for sister.

Accountant Zhang, do you need to go back and check how much money the Xiang Family has taken from the farm in these two years?” Su Yuanyuan said smilingly, looking at Zhang Haisheng. Though she was smiling, there was no trace of humor in her eyes.

”No need, I’ve kept track of it, the Xiang Family withdrew twelve hundred yuan the year before last. Last year, they withdrew sixteen hundred yuan.”

”Good, thanks to Accountant Zhang, this totals to two thousand eight hundred for two years, and my sister’s one-fifth share is five hundred sixty yuan.

Second Brother, go check the Xiang Family’s other room, and of course, take someone from the Xiang Family with you, then load the grain; all the grain here will include my sister’s one-fifth. Not a single bit less.”

No one mentioned the child, and Su Yuanyuan was glad. She was really worried the Xiang Family would want the little girl just to spite them.

”Haisheng?” Xiang Zhiqiang’s father didn’t expect his cousin to tell the Zhao Family everything.

Zhang Haisheng didn’t even look at his cousin; it was truly embarrassing.

Su Yuanyuan watched as Zhao Qingjie led Xiang Family’s Second away before turning to look at Xiang Zhiqiang’s father on the ground.

”Go get the money, not a penny less.”

Now, the Xiang Family head was terrified, but he was really reluctant to part with such a large sum of money.

”The money also has to cover seeds and fertilizer.”

Su Yuanyuan nodded, ”That’s right, considering all that, my sister suffered so much in your house; you should pay for mental and physical damages, add another thousand yuan.”

This time, Xiang Zhiqiang’s father was anxious, ”Who’s worth a thousand yuan like that?”

”My sister is just that priceless,” Su Yuanyuan said leisurely, not afraid he wouldn’t pay, or she’d strike him with lightning again if needed.

Xiang Zhiqiang suddenly jumped up, Zhao Yanli didn’t notice, but Zhao Qingxiang was paying attention and immediately kicked him down, pouring all his anger into that kick, leaving Xiang Zhiqiang curled on the ground clutching his stomach.

Zhao Yanping was very grateful to her family. This was what kin was for.

”Our patience is limited, we don’t have time to waste with you, hurry up and get the money before we change our minds.”

The Xiang Family was always the kind to bully the weak and fear the strong, and this incident truly intimidated them.

Though very unwilling, they didn’t dare anymore. So Xiang Zhiqiang’s father stood up and went inside.

Su Yuanyuan took the money when it was handed over, and began counting it in front of everyone. This action was like stabbing a knife into the hearts of the Xiang Family with each counted bill.

After counting, Su Yuanyuan handed it to Zhao Yanping, ”Elder sister, make sure you keep it safe.

Brother-in-law, go home and hook up the cart; we have to haul the grain back.”

Xu Hongbing had already witnessed how formidable this not-real sister-in-law was today.

This time, Feng Baoshan spoke up, ”I brought a cart, use mine.”
