From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Shuangshuang Is About to Do Something Bad Again (Part 1)

Lu Yuanfeng’s hand hung in mid-air, looking completely dazed.

He still seemed to have not recovered from the earlier incident.

Just as Xia Guagua rushed over, he had just reminded Shuangshuang.

She promptly sidestepped, and as Xia Guagua approached, she was directly kicked down by Shuangshuang.

”Ooh ooh ooh... help~” Xia Guagua splashed around in the water, feeling as though her waist was about to break.

Her feet felt like they were tangled in something, growing heavier and heavier.

”Help, Brother Yuanfeng, save me~ ooh... help...”

Xia Guagua’s body gradually sank, but that wasn’t the worst. The worst part was Mu Shuangshuang picked up the fallen stick and pressed it against Xia Guagua’s head.

”Glug, glug!” Xia Guagua was directly pushed down, the feeling of suffocation instantly attacked her.

At this moment, Xia Guagua was already frightened out of her wits underwater; she kept waving her hands, slapping the water’s surface. Whenever she floated up, the stick would press her down again.

After swallowing a few more mouthfuls of water, Xia Guagua finally began to wail loudly.

”The water grass of the Lotus Pond River is known for capturing souls. Today, Xia Guagua, you’ll accompany the lotuses here, making excellent fertilizer for the river,”

Mu Shuangshuang sneered at Xia Guagua.

This woman has a truly vicious heart. If she isn’t properly taught a lesson today, it’ll be her lying in the river tomorrow.

Xia Guagua cried heartbreakingly, the river water kept pouring in, causing her to cough incessantly.

”Please... don’t kill me...”

”Brother Yuanfeng, save me!”

Lu Yuanfeng stood still, showing no intention of helping. This time, Xia Guagua was truly out of line. If not for Shuangshuang’s quick reflex, it would be Shuangshuang in the river.

Xia Guagua needs to learn her lesson.

”Mu Shuangshuang... glug glug...”

Xia Guagua looked extremely pathetic now. Her newly made dress was stained dark green by the water grass, and her deliberately painted makeup was smeared all over her face.

”Do you know your mistake?”

Mu Shuangshuang squinted her eyes, exerting force with her hand, pressing Xia Guagua down again.

”I was wrong... I was wrong...”

The water grass around her legs tightened and grew heavier, and Xia Guagua gradually stopped struggling.

”Don’t show up in front of me and Lu Yuanfeng again, or I’ll toss you into the river to feed the lotus flowers.”

Just as Xia Guagua gave up resisting even with her hands, Mu Shuangshuang picked up a rope from the ground and quickly looped it around Xia Guagua.

”Lu Yuanfeng, lend a hand, pull her up.”

Xia Guagua finally breathed a sigh of relief, as Lu Yuanfeng helped pull her up. Her lower half was already covered by water grass, and pulling her up took quite a bit of effort.

Once up, Xia Guagua barely held on, gasping for air, eyes filled with terror towards Mu Shuangshuang. As Mu Shuangshuang moved closer, she whimpered loudly.

Stretching lazily, patting her shoulder, Mu Shuangshuang was in a great mood.

”Lu Yuanfeng, we should return soon? It’s about time to make lunch.”

”Hmm, let’s go!”

”But I heard, people often get pulled into this Lotus Pond River. Let’s stick closer to each other, just in case.”

These words were meant for Xia Guagua. In her current state, encountering any man would be problematic.

Though it’s just a scare, she didn’t want a life lost, nor did she want Xia Guagua to be sullied by someone. At least after she intervened, she wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen.

Hearing Mu Shuangshuang’s words, Xia Guagua couldn’t spare a breath, she climbed up, tearing off the water grass, following Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng step by step.

Half an hour later, they finally arrived at Lu Yuanfeng’s home. Exhausted, Xia Guagua collapsed directly in the courtyard.

Unlocking the door, releasing Yuanbao, Lu Yuanfeng completed all actions seamlessly, neither of them concerning themselves with Xia Guagua outside the courtyard. Once home, what happened to Xia Guagua mattered no more to them.

————

After lunch, Mu Shuangshuang, carrying ten lotus pods, returned home with Little Zhi and Xiao Han. Originally, they were walking through the side gate but happened to encounter Mu Zhenzhen who came by the outhouse.

Mu Zhenzhen naturally had sharp eyes that saw the lotus pods in Mu Shuangshuang’s hand.

Without a word, she walked over and said to Mu Shuangshuang, ”Shuangshuang, give the lotus pods to Second Aunt. I’m hungry.”

”If you’re hungry, go home and eat.” Mu Shuangshuang found it ridiculous. Feeling hungry, one can simply ask for things?

What did she take her for?

”I say, you little brat, what kind of talk is that? I’m your Second Aunt, good food and drinks should be prioritized for me. I’m telling you, if you don’t hand them over, I’ll report you to Grandma.”

”I say, Second Aunt, at your age, are you really shameless enough to snatch food from a child?”

Mu Shuangshuang sneered, looking disdainfully at Mu Zhenzhen.

Mu Zhenzhen’s face turned, reaching out to grab them, only to be pushed away by Mu Shuangshuang.

”You’ll regret it, you little brat, just wait for me, just you wait...”

Mu Zhenzhen stomped her foot, angrily heading towards the Old Mu Family direction.

Mu Zhenzhen kicked open the door of the main room, grumbling, ”Mom, that obnoxious brat bullied me, didn’t give me the lotus pods, I... I can’t live like this.”

Old Mrs. Mu, who often indulged Mu Zhenzhen, would risk anything if anyone touched her. Hearing this, she seethed, ”We don’t cry, Mom will go teach that brat a lesson now, see if I don’t beat her up today.”

”Yes, let’s beat her up.” Mu Zhenzhen waved her little fist, agreeing.

...

Just as Old Mrs. Mu was shouting outside, Mu Shuangshuang was with Mu Dashan peeling lotuses. The fragrant, sweet lotus seeds in her hands quickly turned into plump, peeled lotus seeds.

Mu Dashan laughed heartily while eating the lotus seeds peeled by Mu Shuangshuang, unable to stop grinning.

”Obnoxious brat, come out.”

”Obnoxious brat, come out!”

Old Mrs. Mu’s coarse voice rang out, already unpleasant, and now raised in volume, it sounded exceptionally harsh.

Mu Dashan looked displeased.

By rights, the third branch has split off, even though they still eat with her mother, she shouldn’t be talking about Shuangshuang like that.

”Shuangshuang, don’t come out, I’ll reason with your grandma.”

”Dad, you rest, I’ll go check.” Mu Shuangshuang shook her head quickly.

”Sister, Little Zhi will go with you.”

”Me too, I’ll go out too.” Xiao Han followed suit, both knowing Old Mrs. Mu was not easy to deal with, afraid their sister would suffer alone.

”You two take care of Dad, I’ll handle the rest.”

Punches and kicks have no aim, an injury to one of them would be unfortunate.

”Then Sister, be careful. If Grandma hits you, just run.” Little Zhi said worriedly.

Her words fell on Mu Dashan’s ears, and it made Mu Dashan extremely uncomfortable.

”Xiao Han, Little Zhi, help me up, we can’t let your sister suffer alone.”
