In this story of daily life during the 80s, the once fat and ugly Chu Xuan is reborn in a small fishing village in 1983. In this life, she doesn't want to cause Mu Chenze's family to be rui...
Chapter 78 Don't Let Her Down
Hua Daling's eyes widened in shock.
I reached out to touch the nine hundred yuan, two stacks of money that looked very thick.
Feng Chunhua slapped him away.
"Help me do something, and these will be yours after it's done!"
Quickly put the two stacks of money into each of your trouser pockets.
Hua Daling snorted coldly, "You're used to making empty promises for others."
Thinking of Chu Xuan's mention of Feng Chunhua's cruelty, she didn't dare to take Feng Chunhua's money, for fear that she would live to take it but not to spend it.
So he added, "I'm doing a good job at Chu Xuan's house. I'll be able to earn 900 yuan sooner or later. There's no need for me to do things for 900 yuan and then be threatened by you for the rest of my life."
I'm really fed up with the life threatened by Feng Chunhua.
Feng Chunhua looked confused. Hua Daling, who always cared about money, had changed?
"You really won't help me? This is nine hundred dollars! It's enough for your family to build a new house."
Faced with temptation, Hua Daling straightened her back and said, "That's right! I won't help you! I don't want any money! But we are still good neighbors. I won't tell anyone about this."
Although he said this, he decided in his heart that he must tell Chu Xuan privately tomorrow, as Feng Chunhua might do something strange next time.
Feng Chunhua said, "You're smart."
Turn around and go back home.
She doesn't believe that she won't be able to find help as long as she has money.
At 9:30 in the evening, Mu Chenze arrived at Chu Xuan's house to order grilled fish fillets.
Chu Xuan and he worked together to carry the wrapped grilled fish fillets onto the cart.
"Mu Chenze, I heard from your mother that you want to buy a truck?"
Mu Chenze sighed, "My mother doesn't agree. Ji Ping doesn't support me. My father and eldest brother also disagreed after they came back and heard about it. Brother, do you support me?"
Chu Xuan's first reaction was to support him, but she quickly recalled the car accident in her previous life. The car they were riding in was the truck bought by Mu Chenze.
"I don't agree. Brother Lin drives very steadily, so you can just hire his car from now on."
In his previous life, Lin Yong had never had any accidents while driving.
Mu Chenze looked disappointed. "You clearly know that the rent for the car rental can buy a truck in a year, so why are you objecting to it like them?"
Chu Xuan could tell that Mu Chenze really wanted to buy it, so she had to make up an excuse. "Because I once met a fortune teller and told him your birthday and asked him to tell my fortune. He said that you have good character and would be a good partner, but it's not suitable for you to buy a truck. You're likely to lose money and cause trouble. Mu Chenze, I hope you're well."
"You tell my fortune? You know my birthday? Why?"
"Because we're partners, I need to know if you have good fortune. If not, what's the point of working together? As for your date of birth, Feng Chunhua found out and told me before we split up."
Chu Xuan would rather be misunderstood by Mu Chenze as being greedy than tell the truth.
Mu Chenze asked with a questioning look on his face, "You're not lying to me, are you?"
"I repeat, buying a truck means financial loss and disaster. If I lie to you, you're a puppy."
Seeing that Chu Xuan didn't seem to be lying to him, Mu Chenze said, "Okay then! I won't buy a truck. I was planning to go to the bank tomorrow to ask about the loan, but now I don't have to go."
"Just don't go."
Chu Xuan watched Mu Chenze pull the cart away.
The next morning at around six o'clock, Chu Xuan had just gotten up when he heard a knock on the door.
He trotted all the way to open the gate.
When I opened the door, I saw Hua Daling holding onto the door frame, gasping for breath.
"Aunt Hua, is there something urgent?"
Hua Daling was panting heavily and her speech was incoherent. She could only nod repeatedly and took a while to speak.
"Feng...Feng Chunhua offered me...900 yuan to help her last night. I didn't agree. She must be targeting you. If she can't bribe me, she might try to bribe someone else. You better be careful recently."
Chu Xuan's expression remained calm. "She's quite generous. I want to see who she can bribe!"
There are only a few people helping her with the work.
The people most likely to be chosen by Feng Chunhua are Hua Daling, Liu Zhaodi and Niu Guafu.
These three families are not rich and need money.
Chu Xuan was very relieved that Hua Daling resisted the temptation this time and continued, "Aunt Hua, thank you for coming to tell me. I won't treat you unfairly in the future. Even if my grilled fish fillet workshop closes, I will help you find a way out. By the way, don't forget to participate in the village's fundraising for building a factory."
Hua Daling slapped her head and said, "Thanks for reminding me! I almost forgot. I guess there's someone on duty at the village office right now. I'll go over and pay first."
He ran away without a trace.
Chu Xuan washed up, said hello to his younger brother, and went out to exercise and walk briskly to lose weight.
When she walked near Widow Niu's house, she saw a figure that she disliked.
It’s Feng Chunhua.
However, Feng Chunhua was so busy knocking on Widow Niu's door that she didn't notice Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan hid beside the courtyard wall.
After a while, the door opened, followed by the voice of Widow Niu, "Feng Chunhua, why is it you?"
Feng Chunhua chuckled, "I came to see you about something. Shall we go in and talk?"
"My son is still sleeping, and we can't wake him up. If you have anything to say, just talk here."
Widow Niu didn't like Feng Chunhua very much and didn't welcome her.
Feng Chunhua still smiled and asked, "Do you want to make a lot of money?"
“How much is a lot of money?”
"One thousand yuan!"
Widow Niu immediately became interested and asked, "How do you make money?"
Feng Chunhua saw the possibility of discussing things, and the smile on her face became even wider. "Help me deal with Chu Xuan, and after the matter is done, I will give you a thousand yuan!"
When Widow Niu heard the words "deal with Chu Xuan," she couldn't contain her anger. "Bah! Get out of here, you old bear! Chu Xuan is my benefactor, and you want me to deal with her? I'll fucking stone you to death!"
He picked up a stone and scared Feng Chunhua so much that she ran away with her head in her hands.
Widow Niu threw away the stone, scolded her a few more times, then locked the door again and went back to her room to catch up on some sleep.
Chu Xuan followed Feng Chunhua quietly.
I feel like she won't give up just like that.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, Feng Chunhua stopped in front of Liu Zhaodi's house and knocked on the door.
Liu Zhaodi came out to open the door.
As soon as he saw Feng Chunhua, he immediately closed the door.
"If you have anything to say, talk through the door!"
Feng Chunhua tried hard to suppress her anger and said in a good-tempered manner, "Are you talking about a money-making business through the door? That's a thousand yuan!"
The gate was opened again.
Liu Zhaodi's family really needs money.
Chu Xuan, who was hiding aside, said silently in his heart, Liu Zhaodi, don't let me down.
Liu Zhaodi's voice rang out, "Mrs. Feng, tell me how we can earn a thousand yuan first. Should we order wicker baskets or backpacks?"
Feng Chunhua was very dissatisfied with being called Mrs. Feng, but she didn't say it directly. She took out a thick stack of money from her pocket and said, "It doesn't take much effort. As long as you help me deal with Chu Xuan, after the matter is completed, these will all be yours."
Liu Zhaodi's eyes fell on the money. "How do you want me to help you deal with her?"
Feng Chunhua smiled with wrinkles on her face, "Come to my house quietly at noon, and I will tell you in detail what to do."
"I might have to work overtime at noon, so the earliest I can come to your house is after 2 pm."
"That's fine. But make sure no one sees you."
"I know, don't worry! But do you have to keep some of the money?"
Feng Chunhua counted out ten ten-yuan bills and said, "I'll give you a hundred yuan deposit first."
He stuffed it into Liu Zhaodi's hand and was about to leave when Liu Zhaodi stopped him.
"Words are not enough, let's make a written agreement. What if I help you with the matter and you don't give me the other 900 yuan?"
There is another chapter coming up this afternoon. QQ Reading will be delayed, so it might not be updated until tomorrow afternoon. Uh...
