Chapter 49 Xue'e's Hesitation



The two chatted and read books. Before long, the water boiled. Yuan Mengge poured the hot water into the bucket, then added cold water, and then pushed the full bucket of bathwater into the bathroom to take a bath.

Li Xue'e sat there and waited for her.

Yuan Mengge took a quick shower, finishing in three minutes and getting dressed.

Then the two turned off the kitchen light and closed the door, went back to their room, and lay down to sleep.

Looking at the time, it was already past 1 a.m.

The two lay down on the bed and slept for a while. The next morning, they both woke up a little late.

Yuan Mengge goes to bed late, so she also woke up a little later than the previous two days.

Around 7 a.m., Yuan Mengge and Li Xue'e got up together.

Yuan Mengge changed her clothes and prepared to go for a run.

Li Xue'e watched as she put on her clothes and shoes, looking like she was about to go out for exercise.

I asked her, "Are you going for a run again? Do you really go every day?"

Yuan Mengge nodded: "Mm."

Then, looking at her, he asked, "Do you want to come with me?"

Li Xue'e shook her head: "No, I'll stay and see what your mother wants me to do..."

Now that she has married into the Yuan family, no matter how unwilling she is to stay in this home, she cannot leave for the time being.

We can only take it one step at a time.

As a newlywed, she always had to help her mother-in-law with housework.

So when Yuan Mengge was getting ready to go for a run in the morning, she could only cook breakfast at home.

Seeing that she said that, Yuan Mengge didn't say anything, so she asked, "Okay, what kind of breakfast do you want to eat? I'll bring it back for you."

Li Xue'e shook her head: "No need, you can eat it yourself. I can just eat porridge at home."

Yuan Mengge said, "Okay, then I'm leaving."

After she finished her warm-up exercises, she called out to Duo Duo, "Duo Duo, let's go."

Then I took Duoduo out for a morning run.

I got up late today, and when I got to the village, I saw that all the other villagers had already gotten up and started making breakfast.

Some people also spotted Yuan Mengge running.

Today is her third day of running. Because her overall physical fitness has improved by one level, she is running faster.

She used to run the whole way to town in 30 minutes, but she finished it today.

And I don't feel as tired as I did the previous two days.

After finishing her run, she went back to the breakfast shop to buy breakfast, which consisted of steamed buns, eggs, and milk—the standard combination.

Duoduo ran alongside them all the way, and when they arrived in town, she was panting heavily from exhaustion.

The breakfast shop owner already knew her well and knew what she wanted to order as soon as she saw her.

After eating and drinking her fill, she strolled home.

When they arrived home, Yuan's parents were already up, and Li Xue'e had prepared breakfast.

They are having breakfast.

The dishes were the same as before, leftovers from a few days ago.

It had already gone bad, but Yao Dongqing just couldn't bear to throw it away and continued to eat it.

When Yuan Mengge returned, she saw that they were still eating the leftovers that had been sitting for several days.

"These dishes have been sitting for so many days, are you still eating them? Aren't you afraid of getting sick?" She couldn't help but say after glancing at the three of them from the kitchen doorway.

Then he said to Li Xue'e, "Sister Xue'e, don't eat it. They're not afraid of getting sick, so let them eat it."

Li Xue'e glanced at her, then at Yuan's parents, and saw that their faces had darkened, so she remained silent.

"If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. Why do you care what others think?" Yao Dongqing glared at Yuan Mengge in annoyance.

Then he added, "If you have nothing to do, go wash the clothes."

Yuan Mengge didn't respond and turned to go back to her room.

Yuan Xiangyong then said, "She hasn't eaten at home for the past two days. I don't know where she's been eating out."

Thinking about it, it seems like she hasn't eaten at home at all these past two days.

Yao Dongqing said, "She won't starve to death, judging from her appearance."

Yuan Mengge returned to her room, changed her clothes, and then sat at her desk to read her winter vacation homework.

Yuan Pingping herself doesn't like studying, so she only did a little bit of her winter vacation homework.

Now Yuan Mengge is about to start school for her, and she has to finish her homework for her.

As for washing clothes, it's quite cold now, so I'll wait until noon to do it.

After a while, Li Xue'e came into the room after breakfast. Seeing that she was doing her homework, she asked, "Do you still need me to teach you?"

Yuan Mengge nodded: "Of course! Come help me!"

Although her comprehension has improved a lot, she still needs someone to explain things to her.

She could only understand about half of what was in the book, and there were still parts she didn't understand.

I looked through Yuan Pingping's previous notes, but they weren't very detailed, and some important points were missing.

After writing for two hours, Yuan Mengge looked outside and saw that the sun was already quite high, so she stretched.

"Alright, let's take a break. I'm going to do some laundry," Yuan Mengge said, standing up before turning and leaving the room.

"I'll help you wash," Li Xue'e said as she came out.

He said, "If you continue to improve at this rate, I think you will make great progress next semester and have a very good chance of getting into high school."

"Of course, I have to pass the exam," Yuan Mengge replied firmly.

The two went to the bathroom and took the dirty clothes and bucket to the well.

Seeing that she had taken out all the family's clothes to wash, Yuan Mengge said irritably, "Just wash your own clothes. Are you going to wash that trash Yuan Dasheng's clothes too? Are you stupid?"

Hearing her say that, Li Xue'e was stunned.

Seeing Yuan Dasheng's clothes and remembering what happened last night, her face immediately darkened.

Yuan Mengge: "What are you still looking at? Throw his clothes aside."

Li Xue'e silently threw Yuan Dasheng's clothes on the ground to the side.

Yuan Mengge picked up her clothes and rubbed them while asking her, "Have you thought about what we talked about last night? You need to make a decision soon, otherwise when I go to school, there will be no one to protect you."

After hearing this, Li Xue'e said in a low voice, "I don't know where I can go... What if your parents don't agree? If I just leave like this, won't your parents come to my house and make a scene with my dad?"

Yuan Mengge said, "Didn't I tell you, don't worry about this? If you want to leave, I'll make sure they can't find you. And they won't dare to look for you again."

Li Xue'e looked at her, puzzled, and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Yuan Mengge said to her, "It's easy to make them unable to find you. First, change your appearance. Then I'll take you out of the province, and I can help you find a factory to work in. That way, they won't be able to find you."

She's rich; she can secretly hire a few people to protect her later.

I'll deal with the Yuan and Li families when I have more time.

The Yuan family is easy to deal with; just return the betrothal gifts to them.

It's mainly the Li family's side.

They certainly wouldn't be willing to let Li Xue'e disappear like this, after all, they still wanted to continue to leech off her and take advantage of the Yuan family through her.
