Chapter 7 Mom, Get Your Weapons

The starving Ning Xiyue took a mouthful of the soft and chewy pig's trotter with satisfaction. Upon hearing the words, she immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks and excitedly told her father about her heroic deeds today. When she talked about the other two people's reactions, she even played two roles herself to ensure that the two elders could feel the atmosphere at that time as if they were there.

The two elders were also very supportive. They looked at Ning Xiyue happily with a smile and made comments from time to time.

The meal was a very enjoyable one.

During lunch break, Ning Xiyue went out to get some water. When she walked into the living room, she heard a conversation coming from the master bedroom. It was about her. She immediately lowered her footsteps and shamelessly listened in the living room.

Ning Hai's smiling voice came from the room: "Xiu Lan, I am really happy today. When Yue Yue told us about what happened in the morning this afternoon, it reminded me of when she was little. Whenever she encountered something interesting outside, she would run back and give us a vivid performance. If we didn't listen to her, she would be unhappy. Her little mouth would be so pouty that you could hang an oil bottle on it. I haven't seen Yue Yue so lively and happy for a long time. It's great."

"Who said it wasn't true? Ever since she met that son of a bitch Zhang Yuan, my Yueyue has been unhappy. Now, Yueyue has finally figured it out. Every failure makes one wiser. It can be considered a blessing in disguise, but...sigh..."

Yun Xiulan sighed sadly, "In a few days, Yueyue will go to the countryside. The work in the countryside is so tiring. Yueyue has never suffered much since she was a child. I am really worried that if something happens to her there, how will I live, Lao Ning?"

"Xiu Lan, don't worry. I think Yue Yue has grown up a lot after this incident and can take care of herself. Besides, our Yue Yue is so outstanding that she can do well anywhere."

Although Ning Hai was worried himself, he still comforted his wife.

"We should bring her some extra money and send her some money and things every month. Even if Yueyue doesn't work in the countryside, she doesn't have to worry about having no food to eat. The place where Yueyue lives in the countryside is not far from Lao Er, they are in the same county. Write a letter to Lao Er and ask him to take care of her and visit his sister from time to time. The policy has been relaxed a bit recently, we will find a chance to bring Yueyue back."

"That's all we can do. I'll take a day off tomorrow and take Yueyue to buy some things for the countryside."

"Well, go to sleep. I still have things to do in the afternoon."

Ning Xiyue, who listened to the entire conversation in the living room, went from being nervous at first because she was worried that she would be exposed, to feeling relieved, and then was shocked to hear about going to the countryside. In the end, she was just deeply moved.

The original owner's family was really nice and always considered her. Fortunately, her personality was similar to the original owner's before she became love-brained. Even their eating habits were the same, so she wasn't exposed.

She had selectively forgotten about the matter of going to the countryside. When she suddenly heard her parents talking about it, she was shocked to find that she would be going to the countryside in a week.

Although she has a sign-in system, she still needs to stock up on more things, prepare early, and make full use of the system backpack.

Fortunately, she could get some money in the afternoon. With money in hand, she would not be worried. With the money, she could go anywhere, and going to the countryside was no big deal.

Ning Xiyue is now looking forward to Zhang Yuan's arrival. She wishes she could rush to Zhang Yuan's house right now to get the money back. However, the creditor has to maintain his status as a creditor and cannot lose face, so he has to wait until the last minute for repayment.

......

In the afternoon, Ning Xiyue didn't even explore the new world. She stayed at home waiting for Zhang Yuan to come back and pay her back. Money was the most important thing now.

Yun Xiulan was worried about her daughter, so after handling an urgent task at the factory, she hurried home to accompany Ning Xiyue. No matter how much she tried to persuade her, Ning Xiyue could only let her do what she wanted. It would be good for Ning Xiyue to see with her own eyes that she was no longer love-brained and feel at ease.

There were only five minutes left until six o'clock. Ning Xiyue and her mother had cooked dinner in the kitchen. Ning's father had also returned home from get off work, but there was no sign of Zhang Yuan.

Ning Xiyue took off her waistband, returned to her room, took out a brick from her system backpack, shook it in her hand a few times, and sneered, "It's time to play your role."

He put away the smile on his face, picked up the brick and walked out of the house expressionlessly, shouting to Yun Xiulan in the kitchen: "Mom, grab your stuff and go."

"Here we go." Yun Xiulan picked up the kitchen knife from the chopping board and rushed out of the kitchen, following Ning Xiyue. At this moment, the two had identical expressions and reactions, and it was clear that they were mother and daughter.

"Hey, you two, mother and daughter, take it easy and wait for me." Ning Hai quickly put down the newspaper in his hand, looked around, ran to the kitchen and grabbed a rolling pin.

Ning Xiyue just opened the door angrily and saw Zhang Yuan raising his hand to knock on the door.

Zhang Yuan was frightened. He saw Ning Xiyue holding a brick and acting coldly. He then looked back to see Yun Xiulan wielding a kitchen knife and looking ferocious. Finally, he saw Ning Hai running towards him with a rolling pin as thick as his arm. He was so frightened that he took several steps back. His calves trembled and his voice trembled: "I..I am..I am..here..to pay back the money."

"Come in." Ning Xiyue's expression became much happier when she heard this, and she even lowered her hand holding the brick a little.

"I won't... I won't go in." Zhang Yuan's eyes passed over Ning Xiyue's family holding tools, and then looked at himself with thin arms and legs: "This place is good, right... right here."

"My daughter called you to come in, so come in." Ning Haishou walked out of the door, grabbed Zhang Yuan by the collar, and dragged him into the door like an eagle catching a chick and threw him to the ground, "Stop talking nonsense."

After Zhang Yuan came to his senses, he heard a bang and watched the door quickly close in front of him. The light outside was blocked out of the door, and his heart sank.

"Where's the money?" Ning Xiyue sat on the bench and played with a brick casually.

Ning Hai and Yun Xiulan also sat on each side, similarly fiddling with their weapons, staring at Zhang Yuan on the ground with eager eyes, providing Ning Xiyue with solid support.

Zhang Yuan, a poor boy who just graduated from high school, had never seen such a scene before. This family used to look gentle and polite, but now they looked scarier than the small bosses in the black market that he usually came into contact with.

He collapsed to the ground powerlessly, feeling that he would be severely beaten up if he did anything not to Ning Xiyue's liking today.

The original hope of coaxing Ning Xiyue and trying not to pay back the money or paying less has disappeared without a trace. The only thing left in my heart is fear, fear that my life is in danger.

Zhang Yuan took out a box from his bag with trembling hands and handed it over. He also took out stacks of banknotes from various places on his body and handed them over. There was a hint of flattery in his voice: "Six...six hundred yuan are all...here, you count...count it."
