Ke Meiyu puffed out her cheeks and said confidently, "You said it yourself!"
"For example, I'm just giving an example," Qin Yuanjiu casually pulled her into his arms and patted her shoulder perfunctorily, "Is this alright now? I don't want to die young from your anger!"
Just then, Ke's mother called out for dinner, and he pushed her away and strode off.
Ke Meiyu gritted her teeth, "Very well, you've successfully caught my attention!"
Qin Yuanjiu, who had already turned the corner, paused, his eyes deep as he rubbed his fingertips, which still held a warm, soft scent.
Ke Meiyu took a sip of the milk tea she had placed in her space to calm her anger, and then couldn't wait to open the peace value exchange panel. Although the villain's actions were perfunctory, they were still more than pulling on her clothes, right?
One hundred? One hundred and fifty? But at most two hundred, right?
She needs to refresh the page one, two, or three more times today to reach the 500 limit.
Huh? Ke Meiyu looked at the panel and saw that the daily task limit for today had been reached?!
What did she miss?
Completely bewildered, Ke Meiyu took another sip of her milk tea and went to eat breakfast.
Having finished her task early in the morning, eaten chocolate, and drunk milk tea, she was in a great mood, smiling broadly at everyone she met.
Peace points can be exchanged for food, and Ke Meiyu has a physique that she never dared to dream of before the apocalypse—she can eat whatever she wants without gaining weight—and a stomach that always seems to be full. Right now, she's not as eager to eat as she used to be.
However, the food made at home never gets old, and she still happily ate quite a lot.
I had just put down my chopsticks when I heard a commotion in the yard.
Ke Meiyu and the children scurried under the eaves and stood in a row.
Unexpectedly, the second wife started moving out in just a short while!
The second son of the Ke family walked to the front of the main room, but did not go inside. He said to the old lady, "Mother, I have exchanged houses with the Qiao family at the entrance of the village. I will move out today so that I won't be in your way."
"Go, go, go! Hurry up and leave. Don't call me 'mother' anymore," the old lady said impatiently, not even sparing him a glance.
Ke Meiyu knew that the old lady was truly heartbroken.
Even if you only have a cat or a dog at home, you still know how to be grateful.
In her early years, the old lady raised four sons and two daughters on her own. It was already a feat to be able to support them, so how could she possibly have the energy to care about the children's mental health?
In which family doesn't the adults do the work and the older kids take care of the younger ones?
Ke Meiyu suddenly took out a piece of chocolate, peeled off the coating, and put it in the old lady's mouth. "Grandma, have a piece of candy to sweeten your mouth. Doesn't that make you feel better?"
The old lady smacked her lips, tasted the chocolate, and held it in her mouth, reluctant to let it melt, wanting to spit it out for the children.
"Here, have some more," Ke Meiyu said, taking a handful of peeled chocolates and popping one into each child's mouth. "Kids, you must remember that our happy life now is given to us by the organization, protected by many good soldiers like grandfathers with their own flesh and blood, and maintained by many hardworking women like grandmothers."
"Our family's circumstances are what they are, but your happiness is in your own hands. Study hard and get into a good school. Don't waste the opportunity and then turn around and complain about your parents. Only a fool would do that!"
The children, who knew nothing about it, were completely confused. Wasn't it Aunt Yu who wasted their learning opportunities?
The second son of the Ke family glared angrily at Ke Meiyu.
Ke Meiyu, not to be outdone, raised her chin and said, "Uncle, let me give you a piece of advice: be down-to-earth and do what you are capable of. Being overly ambitious will ultimately harm yourself and others!"
"I don't need a junior like you to lecture me," the second son of the Ke family said through gritted teeth. "But you're right, it's better to rely on yourself than on others. In the end, the 'lucky bag' is just a leech that sucks the blood of its own kind!"
Ke Meiyu chuckled, "Uncle, that's just you trying to comfort yourself. Just wait and see how powerful my 'lucky charm' really is."
There weren't many things in the second house. The four of them, plus two other families with close ties, moved everything in one trip.
The children, being very curious, followed him from a distance and then came back chattering excitedly as they relayed the news.
The Qiao family's original house was located at the entrance of the village. Later, they moved to the center of the village. The old house was abandoned, and half of the roof collapsed. At most, there was only one room that could barely keep out the wind and rain.
It was Ke Enshu who insisted on paying sixty yuan to exchange houses with the Qiao family, and she also gave them the twenty or so saplings that she had planted on her own house.
The house that Ke's second wife received was one-third larger than the one that Qiao's family received!
The villagers who were watching the spectacle all scoffed and said that the Ke family's second branch was a rat's nest, unable to hold a single fried dough stick. They had just received a hundred yuan, and then immediately spent it to exchange it with the Qiao family for such a small and dilapidated house.
However, Ke Meiyu raised an eyebrow slightly; she knew what Ke Enshu was planning.
More than a decade later, a large amount of high-quality coal was discovered in Luofeng Village. Soon, a coal mining company was established, enclosing Luofeng Village and building a large living and working area. A provincial highway was built in front of the village, and many vehicles came and went. Even people living at the entrance of the village made a lot of money just by selling tea eggs!
Not to mention that more than 30 years later, this area was also included in the demolition zone, and the families at the entrance of the village not only got new houses, but also one or two shops.
The reason why Ke Meiyu, as a reader, is so clear about this matter is because the Qiao family likes to kick someone when they're down and is greedy for small gains, and they once offended Ke Enshu.
Enraged, Ke Enshu directly persuaded her eldest sister, Ke Yongjun, who had divorced and returned home with her child, to buy the Qiao family's old house.
After the coal mine was built, the Qiao family caused a lot of trouble, so much so that although the place was a prime location, no one dared to buy anything from it. Enraged, Ke Yongjun sold the house and shop to someone else at a low price.
Decades later, when the relocation was carried out, before Ke Yongjun could even feel regret, the Qiao family came knocking on his door again.
Tsk tsk, the Ke family's actions now are tantamount to cutting off someone's livelihood; they'll be in big trouble later...
The place where the second branch of the Ke family used to live was vacated and made suitable for the growing younger generation to live in. The large room slept a large number of boys, while the small cubicles housed a few girls.
Ke Meiyu thought the female lead's family had left and everyone would go to bed early without any worries, but who knew that the children had found a place to go and the young couple would start farming.
She looked at the roof and sighed softly. Fortunately, the new house was in the back hill, with its own courtyard and no neighbors in front, behind, or on the side. It was very spacious.
Otherwise, with a sound that even an ordinary person could hear, it's hard to guarantee that the villain wouldn't have some ideas, and then her innocence would be jeopardized...
As Ke Meiyu inscribed the talisman, she marveled at how strong the men were during the off-season. Then, she scanned her five older brothers, who were snoring loudly, with her divine sense and suddenly felt the weight of the task on her shoulders had increased!
Once the village had completely fallen silent, she quietly jumped out of the window and leaped towards the back mountain.
Along the way, she caught three litters of rabbits and stuffed them into her spatial bamboo basket.
