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

Chapter 277: Chapter 276: Visit Fengzi’s House More Often (Third Night)

”Pah, me seducing you? I must be blind. Even if I chose a pig, it would be better than choosing someone as ugly as you!”

Liu Wangcai’s word ”bitch” thoroughly angered Mu Zhenzhen, and she cursed at Liu Wangcai without holding back.

Liu Wangcai also got angry. He rushed towards Mu Zhenzhen step by step, drool already dripping from his mouth.

Mu Zhenzhen hurriedly retreated, and suddenly she was next to the dining table, where she saw the big soup bowl she had eaten from earlier.

She put down the piece of meat in her hand, picked up the big soup bowl, and fiercely smashed it on Liu Wangcai’s head.

With a ”clang,” Liu Wangcai’s head was broken, and blood flowed profusely.

He looked at Mu Zhenzhen in disbelief, opened his mouth, and felt dizzy, before ultimately collapsing in front of Mu Zhenzhen.

Mu Zhenzhen was startled, her hands trembling uncontrollably. If people found out that she beat someone like this, she wouldn’t be able to escape responsibility.

If he died, she might even face a lawsuit.

”What do I do now? What do I do?” Mu Zhenzhen fretted in circles, her hands, feet, and body shaking simultaneously, her mind a complete muddle.

Just then, outside the courtyard, Liu Wangcai’s mother suddenly called his name.

”Wangcai, when Guihua left, she wanted me to remind you to prepare dinner for her return. Also, remember the kids need to eat meat, so don’t forget to get some!”

Hearing Old Mrs. Liu’s words outside, Mu Zhenzhen realized Liu Wangcai never had good intentions from the start; he wasn’t being sincere or kind to her.

”Liu Wangcai, Liu Wangcai, turns out you’re just a fraud. You made me think this beast really had feelings for me.”

The immediate consequence of anger being replaced by fright was Mu Zhenzhen crouching down and slapping Liu Wangcai’s face viciously. With a series of slaps, her hand was covered in blood before she released him.

After cleaning her hands, Mu Zhenzhen grabbed the money jar and the meat from the table and rushed out of Liu Wangcai’s house.

When she returned home, Old Mrs. Mu greeted her with concern.

”Zhenzhen, where did you go? Why are you only coming back now? I’ve saved some food for you, it’s in the pot. Do you want me to bring it out?”

”Mom, I’m not hungry. This is the meat I bought; cook it tonight and save some for me. I’ll eat it when I come back.”

Only then did Old Mrs. Mu notice the meat in Mu Zhenzhen’s hand, and she immediately started salivating.

”This must have cost a lot, Zhenzhen. Where did you get the money to buy meat?”

Old Mrs. Mu remembered when her daughter was sent home, she hadn’t brought back even a single piece of clothing. If she hadn’t saved some clothes before leaving to wear later, she probably wouldn’t have any now.

”Mom, what do you mean, can’t I have money? Only that brat from the third branch gets to eat well while I have to eat scraps?”

Mu Zhenzhen got angry, glared at Old Mrs. Mu with discontent, tossed the meat onto her lap, and went into her room.

Back in her room, she poured out all the money from the money jar and counted it carefully.

Oh my, with the silver and copper coins alone, there’s as much as three taels. Mu Zhenzhen thought about how she hadn’t bought clothes or rouge in a long time, quickly tidied herself up, found a cow cart at the village entrance, and went to town for shopping.

...

...

After lunch, Mu Shuangshuang and Yu Si Niang were busy tidying the kitchen, while Lu Yuanfeng helped to bring the drunken Yu Liulang into Mu Dashan’s room.

There weren’t enough rooms at Shuangshuang’s house, so at night, Mu Dashan and Yu Liulang would sleep together, while Yu Si Niang squeezed in bed with Mu Shuangshuang.

Once Lu Yuanfeng settled Yu Liulang, and came out, Mu Shuangshuang had finished cleaning up the dishes and was making pig feed.

Half a bucket of pig feed was prepared; Lu Yuanfeng noticed there were wild vegetables, rice bran, and some leftover food from lunch.

He quickly went up to help Mu Shuangshuang lift the pig feed bucket.

”Shuangshuang, go rest. Cooking and working must have made you tired.”

Mu Shuangshuang was indeed a bit tired, but she didn’t rest and followed Lu Yuanfeng to the pigsty.

In the pigsty, the piglets were already squealing non-stop from hunger.

As soon as Lu Yuanfeng approached, the piglets started climbing the pen. Unfortunately, their bodies were too small, and after several attempts, they couldn’t get up, making Mu Shuangshuang burst out laughing.

”You know what, raising pigs is quite amusing,” Mu Shuangshuang said with a sigh. ”Though three meals a day must be on time.”

When she’s home, Mu Shuangshuang doesn’t spend much time there; usually, it’s Yu Si Niang feeding them.

”If you don’t have time, I’ll come and feed them!” Lu Yuanfeng said directly without thinking.

”Haha, Fengzi, what silly things are you saying? Feeding the pigs is just a few steps away; you have to walk much farther. Don’t worry, I can handle this.”

”Okay!”

While the two were chatting enthusiastically, Yu Si Niang suddenly appeared and said to Mu Shuangshuang, ”Shuangshuang, didn’t you say you needed to help Fengzi with something? Why haven’t you gone? Don’t keep him waiting.”

Lu Yuanfeng quickly waved his hand: ”Aunt Four, I’m not in a hurry, Shuangshuang is tired, let her rest.”

”Fengzi, don’t worry about Shuangshuang. She can rest at your place too,” Yu Si Niang said, sounding a bit impatient, as if she couldn’t wait for Mu Shuangshuang to leave.

Lu Yuanfeng stood awkwardly, not knowing how to react, and looked at Mu Shuangshuang for help.

”Since Mom wants me to go out, I’ll go. Anyway, Mom can’t wait for me to leave,” Mu Shuangshuang said, pouting with a sad look.

Yu Si Niang was alarmed and quickly explained, ”I didn’t mean it like that, I just don’t want Fengzi waiting too long. Why would you misunderstand me, child?”

”Mom, I’m just joking!” Mu Shuangshuang, seeing Yu Si Niang worried, quickly grinned widely and reassured her.

Yu Si Niang glared at Mu Shuangshuang, but she was no longer panicked.

This girl simply doesn’t understand her thoughts; she just wants her daughter to spend more time with Fengzi, since feelings need time to grow. If they never stay together, how could a relationship possibly develop?

”Mom, go take a nap. I’m off to Fengzi’s. When Uncle wakes up, ask him to drink more water and don’t let him go far; I have matters to discuss with him.”

”Alright, you and Fengzi be safe on the road, walk under the shade and don’t get sunburned.”

Yu Si Niang tirelessly instructed Mu Shuangshuang, walking alongside her and Lu Yuanfeng for quite a while, only returning when their silhouettes faded in the distance.

Yu Si Niang sighed, ”These blockheads, who knows if it’ll work out. If it does, I can start preparing early!”
