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

Chapter 578: Chapter 574: Mrs. Li Biting the Hand That Feeds (Fourth Update)

”Of course, you yourself said that Luo Xiuxiu is now old and ugly. Putting aside your feelings for my uncle, just based on appearance, my uncle wouldn’t possibly choose her, right?”

Mu Shuangshuang knows how miserable women tortured by their husband’s family can be.

Just like Mrs. Liu from the fourth branch.

She’s not very old, but the wrinkles on her face are almost catching up to Old Mrs. Mu.

Mrs. Lin is different. Although she’s older than Mrs. Liu and typically messy, she has no wrinkles on her face.

Mu Shuangshuang continued, ”Sixth Aunt, what kind of person is my Sixth Uncle? Others might not know, but you do. Since he’s married to you, his heart chose you. No matter what happens, that won’t change.”

”Luo Xiuxiu coming back, Shuangshuang doesn’t see it as a bad thing. Sixth Aunt, you probably still have unresolved feelings. Why don’t we take this opportunity to deal with them and clear the misunderstandings in your heart?”

Mu Shuangshuang’s dark eyes fixed on Feng Xiaohua.

The words she spoke weren’t to excuse Yu Liulang; it’s truly how she feels.

Yu Liulang is trustworthy.

Perhaps these words had an effect, and Feng Xiaohua finally stopped crying.

Yu Si Niang prepared a basin of warm water for Feng Xiaohua to wash her face.

”Xiaohua, let’s not think about anything, let’s eat first. After eating, I’ll go with you to Yu Family Village.”

The matter with her brother and sister-in-law is important; Yu Si Niang believes in dealing with it directly.

”Mom, let me go. I’ll go check things out and come back tonight.”

Mu Shuangshuang didn’t want Yu Si Niang having to make a round trip, as Yu Family Village isn’t exactly nearby, and Yu Si Niang just got out of jail, her body not yet fully recovered...

”That’s good too, I’m relieved if you go!” Yu Si Niang said.

”I’ll go with Shuangshuang. I don’t have anything to do right now.” Lu Yuanfeng offered.

The autumn harvest is around October, so it’s about time to clear the channels and dry the fields, to avoid rice plants getting blown over by cold winds.

But Lu Yuanfeng can spare a day to accompany Shuangshuang.

”Alright then, let’s move the remaining corn back since we haven’t finalized any business deals yet.”

Regarding business matters, even Yu Si Niang and Mu Dashan aren’t clear; they never ask, fearing that knowing anything might lead to trouble.

But this is not a long-term solution, and Mu Shuangshuang plans to earn money together!

After lunch, Lu Yuanfeng got a cow from the village and drove a cart to Yu Family Village.

As soon as they reached the village entrance, they saw Yu Liulang looking eagerly in their direction.

Mu Shuangshuang said, ”It seems my uncle still cares about Aunt; he must have heard Aunt wasn’t there, so he’s been waiting!”

”How could he care about me? Waiting is because he feels guilty!” Feng Xiaohua retorted.

But the smile at the corner of her mouth betrayed her.

Women love to say the opposite of what they feel.

Mu Shuangshuang and the cart-driving Lu Yuanfeng exchanged knowing smiles, silently watching Feng Xiaohua and Yu Liulang.

Once the bullock cart stopped, Yu Liulang came rushing over.

”I knew you went to my Fourth Sister’s place. I’ve scolded my Second Sister-in-law. It was my fault, I apologize, please don’t leave, okay?”

Yu Liulang’s eyes were filled with pleading.

Seeing this, Feng Xiaohua softened.

”Fine, I won’t leave!”

Joy and gratitude intertwined; Yu Liulang was so happy he was nearly jumping.

He didn’t even notice Mu Shuangshuang behind him as he spun Feng Xiaohua around in place.

Women’s screams and men’s happy shouts mingled together.

It’s evident they are quite happy.

”It’s resolved so simply, Fengzi, I guess we don’t have to wait till tonight to go back.” Mu Shuangshuang laughed.

Lu Yuanfeng thought so too; he believed arguments were normal and resolved quickly.

But when the four of them returned together, Feng Xiaohua saw Luo Xiuxiu at her own home, and her face instantly turned pale.

The sweet words earlier felt like slaps on her face, painful and stinging.

”I have things to do, so I won’t entertain guests!” She said, and without caring about anything else, Feng Xiaohua went into her room alone.

Yu Liulang was both angry and anxious.

Angry because Luo Xiuxiu came uninvited, anxious because Feng Xiaohua probably misunderstood again.

”Xiaohua, wait for me, I’ll go with you...”

Yu Liulang had just spoken when Luo Xiuxiu rushed over, saying, ”Brother Liu Lang, I remember what you said to me this morning. I will live my life well from now on. In the future...

Can I trouble you to help me with some things? I had a falling out with my family, found an abandoned house in the village, and heard that the roof leaks when it rains...”

Luo Xiuxiu’s gaze was sincere, but her words were somewhat unreasonable.

Yu Liulang, having married, shouldn’t be helping another woman.

Especially not a woman he was once engaged to.

Yu Liulang shook his head, ”I might not be able to. I’m married, so with you...”

His words were interrupted by Mrs. Li.

”Why not? You used to help her family before you married Feng Xiaohua, didn’t you work on that roof?”

Mrs. Li was determined to match Yu Liulang with Luo Xiuxiu.

Not for anything else, but because Luo Xiuxiu gave her a bracelet yesterday and promised her that if she became Yu Liulang’s wife, her family’s tea plantation would belong to Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li had firmly decided to cooperate with Luo Xiuxiu; she brought Luo Xiuxiu here today precisely to upset Feng Xiaohua.

”It’s different!” Yu Liulang said.

”How is it different? People are people, Feng Xiaohua’s father is crippled, and Xiuxiu is alone!”

Mrs. Li spat on the ground and continued, ”Sixth Son, I know you’re afraid others will misunderstand you and Xiuxiu, but things have passed for so many years, you yourself said to face them. Avoiding now is clearly lying, isn’t it?”

Listening to this, Mu Shuangshuang realized a bit of the situation.

She guessed correctly; Mrs. Li is behind this mess.

This woman is like a troublemaker, wanting to break up her Sixth Uncle and Feng Xiaohua!

”Second Aunt, you can’t say things like that. We still need to avoid suspicion in this matter. As the saying goes, don’t bend over in melon fields, don’t raise your head under peach trees. These are lessons from the past.”

”Considering the previous relationship between my Sixth Uncle and Miss Luo, if they get too close, people will definitely misunderstand, so we should avoid suspicion. Miss Xiuxiu probably doesn’t want my Sixth Uncle to be misunderstood, doesn’t want my Sixth Aunt to feel hurt, right?” Mu Shuangshuang’s mouth curved gently into a smile.

The smile was beautiful, but the words were forceful.

Luo Xiuxiu didn’t want her uncle then, and now she thinks she can come back? Too late!

Luo Xiuxiu was stunned; she never imagined someone would speak to her like this so directly, even though she had anticipated the Yu family would be cold toward her.

This girl is powerful!
