Chapter Sixteen Fu Qingye: Fish, I'll provide plenty.
She originally intended to kill Rong Nanxi! However, because Shen Yuanzhi protected her with his life, Rong Nanxi did not die, but she was executed for malicious murder and was reborn at the age of eight!
Lu Zirou's first thought was to go straight back to the Lu family to acknowledge her relatives! But she discovered that without a letter of introduction, she, a child, couldn't possibly go to the provincial capital alone!
But it doesn't matter. In her memory, Rong Nanxi went missing when she was eight years old and came to Bafang Village.
Thus, Lu Zirou began her scheme when she was eight years old!
Although Rong Nanxi had already been taken back to the provincial capital when Lu Zirou was reborn, as long as she came, Lu Zirou would find a way to pin the blame on Rong Nanxi!
A thread buried for ten years! Upon turning eighteen, Lu Zirou immediately went to the provincial capital and exposed the truth! This brought fate back to its original trajectory!
Now, Lu Zirou is overjoyed whenever she thinks about Rong Nanxi living a hard life in the countryside!
tomorrow!
Once tomorrow arrives, Rong Nanxi will live under her control forever!
Lu Zirou's eyes were filled with intense madness!
...
Bafang Village.
Zhong Xiuniang slapped her thigh as she looked at the half-bucket of fish that Rong Nanxi was carrying!
"Wow, that's amazing! You actually caught a fish!"
When Rong Nanxi borrowed a fishing rod from Zhong Xiuniang in the morning, Zhong Xiuniang didn't take it seriously, thinking that Rong Nanxi was just acting on a whim. Who would have thought that she would actually catch so many fish?
"Xiao Ye, what are you standing there for? Xi Xi must want to eat fish. Go and scrape off the scales and take out the innards. We're making fish for Xi Xi for lunch today!"
"As for the rest, go to the supply and marketing cooperative and sell the fish. These days, fish don't keep well. Bring the money back to Xixi, and don't you dare keep it!"
After saying that, Zhong Xiuniang suddenly remembered something, paused, and became somewhat uneasy.
"Xixi, I'm so sorry, I forgot this is your fish. What should I do with it?"
It was because Rong Nanxi had been so kind to her yesterday that she had almost forgotten that Rong Nanxi never liked being told what to do.
"It's fine!"
Rong Nanxi shook her head, "However, my arrangements do differ somewhat from yours, Aunt. We will still eat the fish, but as for the other things, besides the barter I promised to give to my sisters-in-law, I would like to trouble you to deliver them to the Fu family and all the elders, relatives and friends of the Rong family on my behalf."
Rong Nanxi could go herself, but that's a matter of saving face.
Let Zhong Xiuniang make the trip; consider it compensation.
Although Zhong Xiuniang didn't understand why Rong Nanxi would give her such a good opportunity to gain favors, she still went without much enthusiasm.
It's not that I don't want to go, it's just that my daughter-in-law won't call her "Mom" anymore...
Bafang Village is named so because decades ago, during a time of great chaos, refugees from all directions came together to build the village by chance. As a result, Bafang Village has people of all surnames, making it the most rare multi-surname village among the surrounding villages.
Among them, the Guo family, because of their honesty and kindness, were recommended to be village chiefs, a position they hold to this day.
The village chief's house.
Aunt Guo was washing clothes. Because she had a well at home, she didn't need to go to the river to wash clothes.
The family has a son and a daughter. The son, Guo Xiangrong, went to the fields early in the morning, while the daughter, Guo Xinxin, was hanging clothes out to dry. When she saw Zhong Xiuniang walking towards them with a basket in the distance, her expression changed drastically, and she started shouting at the top of her lungs.
"Mom, Aunt Zhong is here again! She's probably here again to exchange things for our daughter-in-law! Close the door quickly!"
Last time she came, she took away the dressing table that her father had just had made for her!
Aunt Guo glared at Guo Xinxin. This child really doesn't know how to speak!
Zhong Xiuniang vaguely knew why Xixi had called her here. Before, Xixi was picky and wanted the best of everything. If something couldn't be made in a short time, she would have to exchange it with the villagers.
At first it was fine, but as time went on, the villagers didn't want to give away what they had worked so hard for, but they had to do so out of consideration for others' feelings.
Take Guo Xinxin for example. She showed off that dressing table for two months! She even invited her girlfriends to come over to see it, but as soon as it was finished, she only met them once before it was taken away.
In truth, Zhong Xiuniang was aware that the villagers harbored some resentment, but there was nothing she could do...
As she thought about it, Zhong Xiuniang felt a pang of sadness. Her Xixi never used to have to worry about these kinds of social interactions. She wondered what had happened after her trip to the provincial capital.
"Sister Guo, this is a fish that my Xixi caught this morning. It's very fresh. She specifically asked me to bring it here for you to try."
Aunt Guo glanced at it subconsciously, and wow, this carp is huge!
This should cost a few dollars!
It has to be said that the young ladies in the city are very generous.
"What are you here to exchange this time? I don't have anything to exchange. You're acting like you've never eaten fish before. Take it away, take it away!" Guo Xinxin started being sarcastic before Aunt Guo could even speak.
Zhong Xiuniang didn't argue with the younger generation and said with a smile, "I'm really not here to exchange anything! I'm just giving it to Sister Guo to eat!"
“My Xixi caught a whole bucketful, and we can’t possibly finish it all. Sister Guo is always so helpful to my family, so Xixi specially asked me to bring it over for Sister Guo and the children to try!”
Seeing Guo Xinxin's shocked expression, Zhong Xiuniang felt extremely relieved.
That morning, Zhong Xiuniang carried the fish around the village, but she didn't feel tired at all; in fact, she felt particularly pleased with herself.
When he returned to the Fu family home, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
During the meal, he was more attentive than ever to putting fish pieces on Rong Nanxi's plate, as if he wanted to stuff the whole fish into Rong Nanxi's bowl.
Fu Qingchen and her brother were practically spitting fire in their eyes.
Although this kind of scene happens every day, they just can't stand it!
Fortunately, Rong Nanxi was perceptive enough to leave some for them.
Rong Nanxi couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at the two sulking siblings. If she had known that they liked to eat fish, she should have saved more for her family next time, one for each of them.
In the afternoon, Rong Nanxi went to the riverbank again. She wanted to take a good look at the terrain and the course of the river, as she hadn't had time to do so in the morning due to the rush.
After confirming the location, Rong Nanxi went back and made some more mud balls to fill them.
After estimating the time, Rong Nanxi returned to the Fu family.
As soon as she entered, Zhong Xiuniang called out, "Xixi is back! I made you some fish soup. You're carrying two people now, so you need to nourish yourself properly."
He then placed a large bowl of fish soup on the table and urged her to eat it quickly.
Rong Nanxi glanced at the whole fish in the bowl, her brows furrowing imperceptibly, before her gaze met Fu Qingyue's resentful eyes.
"Auntie, I can't finish all of this by myself, let's share it!"
Fu Qingyue's eyes suddenly lit up.
However, the next second, Zhong Xiuniang's dissatisfied voice came from the kitchen: "You girl, you don't know how to take care of yourself! These are the fish you caught, and besides, you're pregnant. Why are you always thinking about making us eat them!"
Fu Qingyue's eyes twitched violently!
Does Rong Nanxi not know how to take care of herself?
She knows all too well!
Little did she know, Rong Nanxi had almost squandered the family's fortune!
What's wrong with eating one of her fish?!
Fu Qingchen was also angry, but he wouldn't show it as openly as his younger sister.
"Mom's right! Anyway, it's not like it's the first time for my sister-in-law. Eat up! Eat more, don't go hungry, my brother will be worried about you!"
Those sarcastic words paired with a sincere expression left one speechless, unsure of where to begin in rebuttal.
"It's just fish, I'll give you plenty!"
Fu Qingye's clear voice suddenly rang out from behind, like a cold spring breaking through the stuffy air.
Rong Nanxi suddenly turned around.
