When Zhou Caixiang returned over the weekend, she learned about this from Zhou Jiahong.
Her reaction was even more intense than Zhou Jiadong's; she burst into tears, crying, "Mom, what am I going to do if you all go to Dongguan?! How could you do this? Why did you have to go to Dongguan? I still have to study!"
"Go ahead and read your book. I'm not stopping you from reading."
Zhou Caixiang choked for a moment, "But, you've all left, what am I going to eat? I don't know how to cook!"
"If you don't know how, then learn. Do you expect us to serve you for the rest of your life?"
"But how can I have time to study now? I'm taking the college entrance exam next year. Can't you wait until I finish the exam before going to Dongguan Province?!"
Yu Qiuying gave her a cold look. "Why didn't you tell me to wait until you got married before you went?"
Zhou Caixiang: "..."
Seeing Yu Qiuying's cold face, she quickly softened her tone, trying to appease her, "Mom, I'm scared to be home alone, and what will I do if I miss you when you go so far away? I beg you, please don't go to Dongguan Province, okay..."
"No good." Yu Qiuying knew her daughter well enough. All that talk about being scared at home alone and missing her was just a way to get her to stay home and take care of her.
"Mom, how can you be so heartless? I'm only seventeen years old, I'm not an adult yet, how can you abandon me!" Zhou Caixiang couldn't help but complain when she saw that no matter how much she pleaded, her mother was determined to go to Dongguan Province.
Yu Qiuying sneered, "So you know you're seventeen? I thought you were seven! What, can't you live without me? Are you useless? Do I have to stay home and serve you?"
Zhou Caixiang: "..."
"Mom, why are you saying such hurtful things!" Zhou Caixiang cried again, but this time she didn't dare to give Yu Qiuying a hard time. She just stomped her foot angrily, pouting and looking aggrieved.
Yu Qiuying didn't even bother with her and went to Wang Xiuying's house after dinner.
I already made arrangements with Wang Xiuying yesterday, and she will be allowed to cultivate all the land in my family. I came to her today to buy some radishes from her farm.
"What? You mean you want all the radishes from my house? No, aren't you going to Dongguan Province after the New Year? What do you need so many radishes for?" Wang Xiuying asked, puzzled.
"I'm going to make some dried radish." The dried radish Yu Qiuying was talking about wasn't the local kind that's just sun-dried, but the kind that's pickled with seasonings. She learned a lot of skills while working outside in her previous life, and she couldn't let them go to waste in this life. Every household in the countryside has radishes, so it doesn't cost much. She planned to make some dried radish and take it to Dongguan Province to sell. Anyway, she has a space, so she had to make good use of such a great transportation tool.
"Okay, I'll keep some for myself to dry, and the rest are yours." Wang Xiuying thought she was referring to the dried radish at home, so she didn't think much of it and just assumed that she wanted to dry more radish to take to Dongguan Province to eat.
After finishing their business, the two chatted for a while longer, and around eight o'clock, Yu Qiuying went home.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she got home, she saw a white figure standing at the foot of her wall. It was Lü Sanmei.
Ever since that damned woman came back, she's become so gloomy. She starts throwing things and cursing before dawn, and at night she wears a white dress and either stands by the wall of Yu Qiuying's house or at the gate of her yard. She's really annoying.
Yu Qiuying got itchy and said, "If you're going to go crazy, go somewhere else. Don't come to my house. You're acting crazy every day. Who are you trying to scare?"
Lü Sanmei remained silent, staring intently at Yu Qiuying.
Yu Qiuying had been really annoyed by her these past few days, and she didn't want to put up with her anymore today.
She quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lü Sanmei's hair. "Are you never going to stop? Fine, you like playing the ghosts, don't you? Come on, neither of us will sleep tonight, let's go to the graveyard!"
As he spoke, he fiercely dragged Lü Sanmei toward the cemetery on the hilltop.
Lu Sanmei stopped pretending to be mute this time, "You widow, what do you want to do?! Let me go!"
She struggled to grab Yu Qiuying's hand, trying to make her let go.
"You wretched bitch, I've put up with you for too long. Tonight I'll show you a real ghost!"
"I don't want to! I won't go! Let me go! You've gone too far! What did I do to you?! What business is it of yours if I'm standing at the gate of my yard?!" Lu Sanmei hated Yu Qiuying to death, but after being detained for half a month, she no longer dared to openly provoke Yu Qiuying.
But she couldn't swallow her anger, so every morning before dawn she would smash things, curse and swear to deliberately disturb her, and at night she would stand in white against the wall of her house to disgust her.
She thought that this would make Yu Qiuying unable to do anything to her, but that damned woman attacked again!
Lu Sanmei truly hated Yu Qiuying, but she had learned her lesson and knew that if she fought Yu Qiuying, she would always be the one who suffered in the end, so she didn't want to fight Yu Qiuying.
As the two were struggling, Zhou Cailian and Zhou Jiahong, who had heard the commotion, ran out.
Zhou Jiahong stepped forward and kicked Lü Sanmei, yelling, "You crazy old hag, you're bullying my mother again, aren't you?!"
