Lu Wanqing ignored her completely, which immediately caused a ferocious expression to appear on her face.
She grabbed Lu Wanqing's arm and knocked over a clay pot in her hand, spilling the cool mung bean soup all over the ground, including a lot of it on her skirt.
"Don't even think about leaving. If you don't return the money to me today, I'll make you regret it!" Anyway, Lin Ye, that rude and barbaric guy, went out to work. His father would always send him to work far from home, and he wouldn't be back for a while.
Lu Wanqing looks delicate and frail; if a fight were to break out, she would be no match for her.
Just as Zhou Ling was about to make a move, Snowball rushed out of the house and began tearing at Zhou Ling's pants with its tiny mouth.
Zhou Ling came today with a grudge, and kicked the snowball far away.
Just then, Lin Xiaocui returned home to get a drink of water and saw Zhou Ling trying to hit her sister-in-law. She stepped forward and shoved her, angrily saying:
"You old hag, you've come to bully us in our own home! Do you think we're pushovers?!"
Zhou Ling stumbled and regained her balance. She saw that it was Lin Xiaocui, that little blonde girl who was usually quiet, but she didn't expect her to be so strong.
"You'd better not interfere in my feud with this bitch, or don't blame me for being impolite!" Zhou Ling said sharply.
"I'm not afraid of you!"
Lin Xiaocui wasn't intimidated at all and slapped her across the face.
Zhou Ling was stunned for a moment, then pounced on Lin Xiaocui like a madwoman, and the two wrestled together.
Snowball circled around the two rolling on the ground, trying to find an opportunity to help Lin Xiaocui. However, two minutes later, Lin Xiaocui had already pinned Zhou Ling down and was attacking her from both sides.
Zhou Ling left dejectedly, and even tripped and fell into an anthill on the way. Ants crawled up her trouser leg, onto her body, and gnawed at her skin, causing her unbearable itching for several days.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiaocui beat Zhou Ling up, then acted as if nothing had happened and went home to get a drink of water.
Lu Wanqing called her to her own stove and served her a bowl of mung bean soup.
"Sister-in-law, this water is so sweet. I feel so light after drinking it," Lin Xiaocui said with a smile.
School was out for break, but Lin Xiaocui was forced to work in the fields every day by Wang Xiuqin. She was so exhausted that her body was almost falling apart, and her skin was almost tanned to a dark brown.
"It's delicious, so drink more. I made a lot. Oh, and you can use this face cream; it's good for sun protection." Lu Wanqing smiled warmly, giving off a very approachable vibe.
Lin Xiaocui carefully accepted it, saying, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Normally, she never dared to speak to Lu Wanqing in front of Wang Xiuqin, for fear of being scolded.
In front of her biological mother, she tried her best to minimize her presence, just to avoid doing anything wrong and attracting scolding and being prevented from continuing her schooling.
Actually, the first time she met Lu Wanqing, she was particularly envious of her clothes and appearance. She secretly went to chat with her several times. Back then, when she ran away from the wedding, it was Lu Wanqing who kept watch.
Lu Wanqing gave her face cream, which flattered her. She had never used such a high-end product before!
Knowing that Lu Wanqing was about to deliver mung bean soup to Lin Ye, she offered to help deliver it.
Lu Wanqing's dress was dirty, so I decided to let her deliver it on her way.
"This jar is for your brother Lin Ye. You can do whatever you want with this jar." Lu Wanqing filled another jar and handed both jars of mung bean soup to Lin Xiaocui.
The little girl ran off, her long braid swaying in the wind.
Lu Wanqing watched her retreating figure, gently pursing her lips. The young girl usually doesn't concern herself with worldly affairs, but she is a sensible person and will surely achieve great things in the future. It would be best if she wasn't held back by her mother.
......
The golden fields were bustling with people. Some were harvesting rice, others were threshing rice on threshing machines, and the strongest laborers were carrying loads of two hundred pounds, swaying leisurely along the ridges of the fields.
Lin Ye was busy on a threshing machine. His long legs made the machine spin rapidly, and he was the fastest in the team at threshing grain.
Luo Chunlei handed him the bundle of rice.
After his holiday, he wanted to earn more work points for his family, so he went out to work with Luo Hao.
Lin Xiaocui came over, called out "Big Brother", and told him to rest for a while and that there was mung bean soup to drink.
While resting in the woods, Luo Chunlei followed and walked to the edge of the field, plopping down on the ridge.
I'm usually studying, so suddenly doing such high-intensity work is really tiring.
Lin Ye drank his special pot of mung bean soup, feeling a little disappointed, as the soup didn't taste as sweet as usual.
"Why didn't your sister-in-law come?" Lin Ye asked casually, but he had been thinking for several minutes before finally asking.
"My sister-in-law's dress got dirty, so I volunteered to bring it over." Lin Xiaocui looked like she wanted praise. As for Zhou Ling's matter, she didn't mention it; it would be more appropriate for her sister-in-law to say it herself.
Lin Ye glanced at her, forced a smile, and said, "Thank you so much, but don't help me next time!"
Seeing his wife is his source of strength; if he can't see her, he really feels restless and anxious!
Lin Xiaocui was pleased to see Lin Ye smiling at her, even though she had ended up making things worse.
At this moment, Luo Hao smelled the aroma and came over to ask Lin Ye for some mung bean soup.
Lin Ye held onto the can of mung bean soup tightly, saying, "My wife gave this to me. I want to drink another can."
Lin Xiaocui quickly poured him a bowl, "Brother Hao, you drink this bowl."
After she finished speaking, she poured a bowl for several people working nearby.
With only a little left, she held the earthenware pot out to Luo Chunlei, who was playing with mud with his head down: "There's still a little bit left, you can drink it all."
The boy looked up blankly. A few days ago, Lin Xiaocui had argued loudly with the teacher because her final exam results were one point lower than his, saying she wanted to check his test paper and couldn't believe that she was one point short!
At school, they were mortal enemies who looked down on each other among the top students!
The fact that she offered him mung bean soup shows that she knew she was inferior and was willing to humble herself before him.
Thinking this, Luo Chunlei reached out to take the earthenware pot, but said coolly, "Don't think that just because I drank some mung bean soup, I won't..."
Before he could even utter the word "calculate," the earthenware pot slipped from his hand, spilling all the mung bean soup onto his crotch.
Luo Chunlei felt a cool sensation in the groin of his thigh, and suddenly stood up, but his foot slipped and he almost fell.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiaocui had already stuck her tongue out at him and run away.
Enraged, he gritted his teeth and punched wildly in the air as he watched her retreating figure.
"Chunlei, what are you doing?" Luo Hao saw him like this after finishing his soup.
The boy had no choice but to resume his cool expression and said in a deep voice, "It's nothing."
For some reason, the work efficiency of Lin Ye's group has been declining sharply ever since they drank the mung bean soup.
It wasn't until he got home and saw Lu Wanqing again that Lin Ye seemed to come alive, happily starting to cook.
