Chapter 41 The package arrives, the Yuan family falls.



With Gu Tingzhi's words, Meng Fuyan was certain that she wouldn't have to do any fieldwork anymore, not even pretending. If anyone made sarcastic remarks, the brigade leader would probably handle it without her even lifting a finger.

Not bad, not bad!

In a good mood, Meng Fuyan went into her virtual space that evening and browsed through her vegetable garden.

On the 100-square-meter patch of black soil, a small amount of medicinal herbs, vegetables, and fruits are grown.

Because of this, when she was stocking up, she only bought a little bit of fruit and didn't buy any vegetables at all, so as not to take up space.

I picked the ripe vegetables and fruits and put them into my space, and then fed the fish and shrimp in the aquarium.

There are about 100 pounds of fish, which are the smaller ones that I caught myself. Some were thrown back into the river, and some were kept to raise. There are also eels, about 50 pounds, which have grown quite a bit.

Once they were almost fully grown, she would scoop them up, kill them, chop them into pieces, put them in a basin, and throw them into her spatial dimension. The same went for the river shrimp; once they grew up, she would clean them and put them into her spatial dimension.

Anyway, the space can keep things fresh; whatever you put in will come out the same way, making it even better than a refrigerator.

This kind of wild stuff tastes amazing!

Originally, her storage space was only 100 square meters, which she had crammed full. Now the space has expanded to 500 square meters. The treasures and things she had looted in Changning City still don't fill the 100 square meters. Looking at the remaining 300 square meters of space, which is empty, Meng Fuyan, who likes to hoard things, has an urge to fill it up little by little.

After tidying everything up, Meng Fuyan went back to sleep.

The next day, Gu Tingzhi indeed brought her packages over—five packages of various sizes, quite a sight.

Three of them were sent by her herself, two larger ones were sent by Lu Jianjun, and the other one was sent by Sun Jianguo's family.

Also brought along was a letter from Meng Fuyan, written by Lu Jianjun.

Meng Fuyan read the letter first.

The letter contained a list of supplies, along with information about Changning City, Wu Guozhu's current situation, and so on. It assured her that he would arrange a job for her and transfer her back after a maximum of six months.

Meng Fuyan wasn't worried about returning to the city; what shocked her was that the Yuan family had fallen.

The second son of the Yuan family died vomiting blood. He was the head of the Yuan family in Changning City. With the second son of the Yuan family down, and some serious things being found out, he was completely brought down.

All their family property was stolen.

However, it was precisely because their family fortune was stolen overnight that the Yuan family found an excuse to claim that the so-called evidence was planted in their home by thieves and that they were framing them.

Currently, key figures in the Yuan family lineage have been dismissed from their posts and are still under investigation; the branch in Beijing has also been affected.

Seeing this, Meng Fuyan knew that it was probably impossible for the Yuan family in Changning City to turn things around.

They're not exactly clean to begin with, so it shouldn't be too difficult to find out anything wrong with them.

In other words, the Yuan family, at least the Yuan family branch in Changning City, is out of the game in this lifetime.

No wonder Yuan Yi went to the countryside!

Meng Fuyan frowned. Of course she was happy that the Yuan family had fallen.

But everything happened too fast in this life, completely different from my previous life.

The situation changed too quickly, so quickly that she didn't even have a chance to participate. Now, she can't change anything at all, and all she can do is seek revenge.

Let's deal with the three siblings from the Wu family first.

However, overnight, all their assets were stolen...

Meng Fuyan thought of her bracelet...

Could it have been obtained by the murderer? Does he have a grudge against the Yuan family?

Gu Tingzhi helped her carry all the packages inside. Seeing her staring blankly at a letter, he asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Huh?" Meng Fuyan came back to her senses. "It's nothing. It's a letter Uncle Lu sent me. A lot of things happened in Changning City. Something happened to the Yuan family. They were all dismissed and are under investigation. Their family property was also stolen."

Gu Tingzhi remained calm and nodded. "Yes, I know. Yuan Bo was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted on the spot. He was rushed to the hospital but died despite all efforts to save him. It is said that someone dug a big pit in the Yuan family's yard, and Yuan Bo vomited blood and fainted in front of that pit that day."

Meng Fuyan blinked. "A huge pit? Spitting blood?"

Gu Tingzhi nodded, "Mm!"

Meng Fuyan: "..."

Why does this feel a bit like fantasy?

Although things got out of control, it was still a happy thing overall.

Gu Tingzhi was somewhat surprised to see so many packages, and they were all quite large. "You... have so much stuff?"

Meng Fuyan glanced at them and smiled, "They're alright. I packed and sent these three over myself. You know my family's situation. I brought all of my and my brother's belongings with me back then."

Gu Tingzhi nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He secretly glanced at her and found that the girl was indeed very happy.

It seems that the Yuan family's misfortune has indeed made her happy.

Gu Tingzhi went to attend to his own business.

Meng Fuyan was in a good mood and decided to go up the mountain to take her younger brother to school, prepare his lunch, and tell him not to come back at noon.

The commune primary school was quite far away, and some children brought their own lunches, which they could heat up at school at noon. So Meng Fuyan didn't need to worry about her younger brother's lunch.

Back at the educated youth settlement, Meng Fuyan saw the three Wu siblings and Yuan Yi in the courtyard. Suddenly, she stopped in a hurry to leave, opened the door, and started unpacking packages inside the house.

The houses in the educated youth settlement were all open-plan, and you could see almost to the end from the doorway.

Meng Fuyan was not far from the entrance, with five large packages that were quite conspicuous.

Her own belongings were mostly cotton-padded clothes and quilts.

Winters in the south aren't as cold as in the north, so cotton-padded clothes aren't very thick. But in this day and age, many things depend on conditions, not the environment.

In the north, there are countless children from poor families whose cotton-padded clothes are not as thick as hers.

Meng Fuyan had a lot of cotton clothes and quilts, which were more than enough. If the quilts weren't thick enough, she could just put on two layers!

Watching her take out those cotton-padded clothes and quilts one by one, Wu Siyu and Wu Meixiang in the yard were so jealous that their eyes turned red.

Meng Fuyan's luggage was sent out early, so it wasn't stolen. These were all things she used to own. As they also lived in the Meng family, they naturally knew how many good things Meng Fuyan had.

Those quilts are all new, even the worst ones are at least 60% new.

Don't ask, the answer is that Meng Fuyan likes to spend money and has never known the meaning of thrift.

Other families don't have many quilts, but she uses several and alternates between them. Others can use a quilt for more than ten years, even when it turns yellow, black, clumps, or hardens, they still keep it and continue to use it. But what about Meng Fuyan?

She would replace a cotton quilt after only a few years, and never wore a cotton-padded coat for more than three years. Even though the clothes were not damaged, she would sell them to buy new ones. She never thought about being frugal. She just deliberately made excuses to spend money, as if she was afraid that they would steal the money from the family. It was as if she would be losing out if she didn't spend money.

What Wu Siyu hated most was Meng Fuyan's self-righteous attitude. They were both her father's daughters, so why could she rightfully be the young lady?
