at the same time.

Educated youth settlement.

Qin Yuzhu also moved her frozen body, wrapped herself in a quilt, and stood up from the corner of the kang (a heated brick bed).

Unlike Yu Mingxiang's family, who still maintain the habit of three meals a day in winter, the villagers and educated youth do not have to work on the ground in winter. Most of them sleep until mid-morning before getting up. In this way, they only eat two meals a day, morning and evening, which can save a meal of food.

Despite the aches and pains all over her body, Qin Yuzhu tiptoed out of the house.

Icicles were hanging from the eaves.

As soon as she stepped out of the house, she stamped her feet in the cold, wrapped the blanket around herself tighter, and went outside.

Just as Qin Yuzhu stepped out of the courtyard of the educated youth settlement, she ran into Zhao Tiezhu and his family of three.

The Zhao family of three only learned last night that Qin Yuzhu had come to Hedao Village from the countryside. The three of them suppressed the urge to come and recognize her that very night, discussed it for half the night, and finally waited until dawn. They couldn't wait to put on what they thought were decent clothes and come to the educated youth settlement to find her.

Qin Yuzhu was beaten and cried all night. She was dizzy and didn't notice the people walking towards her. She bumped into Zhao Tengfei.

When Zhao Tengfei saw the woman who had bumped into him, with a bruised and swollen face and looking disheveled, he figured she couldn't possibly be his younger sister who had married a tycoon.

"Smack!"

He raised his hand and slapped Qin Yuzhu across the face. "Can't you watch where you're going? How dare you bump into me!"

Qin Yuzhu: "!!!"

He saw stars in his eyes after being hit.

"You hit me! You all hit me!"

After being beaten yet again, her taut nerves finally snapped. She ripped off the blanket covering her and lunged at Zhao Tengfei without a second thought, yelling, "I'll fight you to the death!"

Zhao Tengfei's leg was broken by Yu Mingxiang, who put a sack over his head. Now he walks with a limp and is unsteady on his feet. He almost fell over when she pounced on him.

"You son of a bitch, how dare you hit my son!"

Seeing this, Li Guihua shouted angrily, grabbed Qin Yuzhu's hair, and slapped her face several times. "You hit someone and then hit them! If I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't know that the King of Horses has three eyes!"

Qin Yuzhu: "!!!"

She was nearly knocked off her feet by those slaps.

Zhao Tengfei steadied himself and joined the battle.

For a moment, the mother and son were fighting against one.

Qin Yuzhu was completely powerless to resist.

Zhao Tiezhu was still cheering from the sidelines.

"Ugly people are always up to no good, hit her! Hit her in the face!"

“It’s such an insult to my precious daughter to live with someone like this.”

"..."

A moment later.

After the mother and son had their fill of playing, they stomped on Qin Yuzhu's blanket a few times before turning around and leaving with Zhao Tiezhu.

Before leaving, the three of them spat at Qin Yuzhu.

Qin Yuzhu: "!!!"

She picked up the dirty blanket, hugged it to her chest, and burst into tears.

I can't live like this anymore!

I really can't live like this anymore!

If things continue like this, she, who transmigrated into cannon fodder, will really become cannon fodder much sooner.

She glared angrily at the departing figures of the Zhao family of three, then wrapped herself in the blanket and walked towards the village, sobbing uncontrollably.

The more she cried, the more aggrieved she felt.

The crying grew louder and louder.

Qin Yuzhu made up her mind to wake up the sleeping villagers.

She was in the wrong last night.

They chose to go to Yu Mingxiang's house late at night when no one was around.

This time, she's going to take the whole village with her.

Instead of sitting and waiting to die, it's better to take the initiative.

Today, she's determined to stay at Yu Mingxiang's house, eat her food, drink her drinks, and sleep at her place!

The quiet morning in the small mountain village was broken by crying and the barking of dogs.

Many people were awakened by her crying and, thinking that an elderly person had died in the village, hurriedly dressed and went out to check.

at the same time.

A courtyard at the entrance of the village, some distance from the village itself.

Yu Mingxiang had heated the oil and was about to stir-fry the shredded pork and pickled cabbage when Gu Guanhai suddenly looked up and stopped her, "Wait a bit before you stir-fry the vegetables!"

Yu Mingxiang tilted her head, looking at him with a puzzled expression, "Hmm?"
