Chapter 1263: If You Find It Harsh, Then Don't Do Those Annoying Things

After the pleasantries came the mutual polite refusals, and naturally all the gifts were left behind.

Before leaving, the woman left a note for Liu Chuxue: "Comrade Liu Chuxue, our whole family will remember this kindness. If we ever encounter difficulties in the future, as long as it does not violate discipline and as long as we are able to do it, we will certainly give our full support."

Another round of pleasantries passed before they finally saw the person off.

Liu Chuxue only then realized that one truly cannot judge a person by appearance; it turned out the little girl rescued from the sea came from a family that was no ordinary one.

Thinking of Qi Shufang, she couldn't help but twitch at the corner of her mouth; she was truly capable of courting death.

At this very moment, Qi Shufang sat with a face ashen as death on a dilapidated Jiefang truck heading to a border farm. This time, even Qi's mother had lost all hope of saving her, because after this incident, the Qi family had also suffered consequences. Had it not been for the old master of the Qi family lowering his pride to beg everyone from grandfathers to grandmothers, the whole family might have been exiled to a remote place.

And this time, Qi Xiuyan, this cousin, did not escape either; after all, he had previously interfered in Qi Shufang's matter. The promotion that was almost in his grasp had gone up in smoke, causing the two branches of the Qi family to completely break relations over this incident.

Suddenly, the Qi family became the joke of the compound, with everyone treating Qi Shufang as a negative example to warn their own children to think thrice before acting.

The Qi family also moved out of the compound because of this incident and moved into a large courtyard of mixed tenants.

What Liu Chuxue did not know was that the matter of Qi Shufang and the Qi family, along with the reward delivery to the Fu family a few days ago, was the handiwork of Chu Hengyue, who knew the daughter-in-law of the Jiao family staying in the compound. This was because Qi Shufang was the cousin from the Hong family that the silly girl of the Jiao family mentioned as having stolen food. Because of Qi Shufang's theft, Chu Hengyue's younger sister, who had married into the Hong family, took the blame, was beaten by her mother-in-law, and on top of that, the child in her belly was miscarried a few days later. This grudge was undoubtedly immense.

Before the person even returned, he made a phone call to investigate Qi Shufang's background. Upon learning her situation, he directly intervened and sent Qi Shufang straight to the Northern Frontier, effectively avenging his sister. Truly, one does not court death if one does not provoke it.

After seeing the person off, Fu's mother and Liu Chuxue entered the courtyard and saw Hao Yanhong circling around those gifts.

Fu's mother's face immediately darkened: "These are all gifts given to the fourth brother's wife; do not set your sights on these things."

Hao Yanhong, however, grinned and said, "There are so many things; the fourth sister-in-law cannot eat them all. My Jinze..."

Before she could finish speaking, Liu Chuxue said unceremoniously, "I am pregnant now; these things are just right to nourish my body. It really was a timely gift."

Hearing this, Hao Yanhong muttered, "How can a grown woman eat alone like this? You are becoming increasingly stingy."

Liu Chuxue did not take the bait; since they had already separated households, she would not divide the goods just because of her words. Besides, for a person like her, even if you did divide them, she probably would not be satisfied, so there was no point in indulging her.

She separated some and handed them to Fu's mother: "Mom, keep these for you and Dad to eat; it is just right to nourish your bodies."

Fu's mother quickly reached out to stop her: "You are pregnant now; how can we compete with the child for food? Besides, these are gratitude gifts for you risking your life to save someone. I wonder which shameless person dares to covet them?"

Hao Yanhong could no longer bear to listen: "Mom, the way you speak is too harsh."

Fu's mother did not care what she thought: "If you find it harsh, then do not do those annoying things."

Hao Yanhong still had Liu Chuxue's job in mind and did not want to continue with her mother-in-law, so she directly changed the topic: "Fourth sister-in-law, that woman just said you resigned. Is that true or false? Do our parents-in-law know about this?"

Liu Chuxue laughed directly: "Second sister-in-law, we have already separated households."
