This dinner was the most satisfying meal Shumei had had in a long time.
She silently thanked Wencai and Li Yushu in her heart.
Although Li Yushu expressed his attitude, he didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment. He was definitely still a little unhappy. After all, such a good daughter-in-law was gone, and he still felt deeply lost.
Wencai also felt a sense of relief, probably because he felt relaxed that he was single again!
Wu Ju's face was so smelly, even uglier than bitter gourd.
Her heart was bleeding. How could this good God of Wealth just fly away like that?
In the afternoon, he boasted in front of so many people that this was Shumei's future father-in-law and man.
Ouch! Will people laugh at me when I go out in the future? It's all because of this jerk. He never does anything to make me worry-free.
Wu Ju gritted her teeth and complained in her heart, wishing she could kick these two people who had nothing to do with her out of the house right now.
But when she thought of the thousand yuan they gave her in the afternoon, she endured it again. She would never get the money back anyway.
Since they don't bring up the topic, I'll just bear with it for now and avoid unnecessary arguments.
Shumei arranged Wencai and Li Yushu to stay in the guest room where Xiao Shuangning usually slept, while she and Xiao Shuangning slept on the floor in the main room and barely made do for the night.
Shumei thought a lot. In addition to going to the town to get her marriage certificate with Boyi tomorrow, she also planned to arrange for Xiao Shuangning to go to school.
She also wanted to take Zhang Binglin to the town hospital for a checkup. He had been lying in bed for a month, and his condition hadn't improved. Wu Ju couldn't afford to take him to a big hospital for a checkup, so she had to do it herself.
Now that Wencai's car is in the village, she plans to trouble Wencai again and use Wencai's car to take Zhang Binglin to the town.
Little Shuangning lay in her arms and soon fell asleep.
It had been so long since she had felt her mother's embrace, and Xiao Shuangning slept particularly soundly, with a smile on her face.
Shumei tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
She had experienced so many happy moments like this before, but unfortunately, in the next second, fate would mercilessly take away the happiness that was about to come.
She was a little paranoid, like a frightened bird, afraid that something would happen suddenly tomorrow and make happiness slip away just when it was about to come.
Just as she tossed and turned, she heard a noisy sound coming from Fu Jun's house next door. Because it was late at night and there was no one around, the sound seemed particularly loud, echoing throughout the night sky.
The Zhang family was woken up, and so was another family next door to Fu Jun's.
Dim lights were on in both houses.
Shumei thought someone's house had been robbed, so she was the first to go out into the yard, dressed in her clothes, to check. Xiao Shuangning was deep in sleep and wasn't disturbed by the noise.
As soon as she reached the eaves, Wu Ju followed closely behind her and also walked under the eaves.
"Mom, something seems to have happened at Brother Fu's house next door. I wonder if there was a burglary. Let's go over and take a look!" Shumei said anxiously when she saw Wu Ju coming out.
After all, they are neighbors. If Shumei can really lend a hand, she will definitely do her best to help.
"No need. Didn't you hear that they were just arguing with each other? What's the point of you going over there so late at night? Just go back to sleep." Wu Ju said to Shumei angrily, as if she was very opposed to Shumei getting involved.
Shumei said "oh" reluctantly, but did not go back to the yard immediately. She stood under the eaves and listened attentively.
Wu Ju ignored her, went back to the main room, and walked straight into Zhang Xiaoqin's bedroom.
Zhang Xiaoqin seemed to be woken up as well. When she heard someone coming in, she turned on the light switch on the wall.
"Xiaoqin, were you woken up too?"
"It was so loud, louder than firecrackers. I've been a light sleeper lately, how could I not be woken up?"
Zhang Xiaoqin was filled with resentment and slowly sat up from the bed.
"Xiaoqin! It's no use going on like this! Look, it's getting worse and worse, and it's especially bad tonight. Will anything happen?"
Wu Ju was afraid that someone would get killed. If that happened, the truth would be exposed and Zhang Xiaoqin would be in a difficult situation.
"How big of a fuss can it get? Could someone be killed? I don't think Fu Jun's silly wife would have the guts to commit suicide. Let her make a fuss for a few days, she's already snatched the man away. So, can't you let others make a fuss for a few days to vent their anger and find a way out?"
"As for Fu Jun, can you guarantee that he will abandon his legitimate wife for you?"
"If he dares not to sell, I have something in my belly. This is the bargaining chip. Mother, don't worry about it. I'm thirsty, go get me some water!"
Zhang Xiaoqin's angry words were firm and decisive. She had clearly made the other person wear a huge cuckold, but she didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt in her heart.
Wu Ju didn't know what to say or how to persuade her. Since she was already in a difficult situation, she could only bite the bullet and cheer Zhang Xiaoqin up.
Li Yushu and Wencai were also woken up. They both put on their clothes, walked into the yard, and met Shumei who was under the eaves.
"Shumei, what are you doing in the middle of the night?" Wencai glanced towards the wall and asked Shumei in confusion.
"I don't know either, but I've been listening for a while and it seems like it's our neighbor, Big Brother Fu, getting a divorce from his wife."
"These people! They have just solved the problem of food and clothing, why are they so energetic? Why are they making noise in the middle of the night? If you have something to say, why not make noise during the day tomorrow? Can't we sleep?" Li Yushu complained mutteringly and yawned one after another.
