Chapter 148: You solve the trouble you caused yourself

~4 min read 705 words

Hearing the words of the onlookers, the people from the main branch no longer had the courage to persist.

Liu Shangang knew their family had truly failed this time; no one in the village respected them. He shouted angrily at Ge Xiulan: "Why aren't you helping her back?"

He didn't even care about his grandson who was still crying, turning around and heading back into the courtyard first.

Ge Xiulan glared at Chuxue, thinking to herself: Don't be too smug too soon.

She thought that even if they were wrong, after such an incident, the Chen family wouldn't let Chuxue off easily in the future. She was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

It was a pity she thought too much.

Mother Liu had gone to the new house and returned to see a crowd gathered in front of her gate. When she squeezed in, she saw Ge Xiulan and Liu Ruhua helping a grimacing Liu Ruxiang into the courtyard.

A dark-faced Liu Jianqiang carried his crying nephew and followed them into the courtyard.

When Mother Liu saw her daughter standing there, she hurried forward, first looking her up and down. Seeing she was fine, she asked: "What happened?"

Chuxue didn't want to talk about what just happened in front of outsiders: "Let’s go in first. Dad is alone at home; I’m afraid he’s worried."

Sure enough, when they entered, they saw Liu Shanliang lying on the edge of the kang.

This gave Mother Liu a fright: "Why did you get down?"

Father Liu had sweat on his forehead: "I heard the arguing outside and wanted to go out to see."

Fu Yan Cheng, who had followed them in, hurriedly stepped forward and carried him back onto the kang.

He didn't show a hint of disgust. Chuxue saw it and kept it in her heart.

Mother Liu said gratefully: "Oh my, I’ve really troubled you."

Looking at Fu Yan Cheng again, she couldn't help but have some thoughts, but thinking of their family’s situation, she ultimately suppressed them.

The meal was already prepared and soon served on the table. At this time, Chunxiao also ran back.

Father and Mother Liu greeted him: "Comrade Fu, it’s just a home-cooked meal. Please don't mind it; eat more."

At first, Fu Yan Cheng was a bit reserved. Chuxue took a two-flour flower roll in her hand: "Eat quickly. We’re all going to the new house later."

Fu Yan Cheng didn't quite understand at first, but then he heard Chuxue say: "The verdict for the Chen and Ge families has come down. I’m afraid the Ge family will come looking for us soon."

Fu Yan Cheng had been paying attention to this matter all along. As soon as Chuxue said it, he understood. This matter could have been handled leniently, but there was no way Fu Yan Cheng would let them off easily; he had naturally intervened.

Chunxiao naturally knew what had happened before. Hearing this, she said: "My second sister already let them off once. Not only are they ungrateful, but they’re also causing trouble. Now it’s fine; the Ge family isn't easy to deal with. They’re going to have a hard time."

Now, none of them spoke; only the sound of chewing could be heard.

Fortunately, they were quick. After eating, they didn't even clean up the bowls and chopsticks, locking the door and heading straight to the new house.

Not long after they left, the Ge family arrived like a storm: "Ge Xiulan, Liu Shangang, get out here!"

As soon as Ge Xiulan heard this voice, she shivered and said in a panic: "It’s over. My sister-in-law is back."

Liu Shangang naturally recognized it too: "You solve the trouble you caused yourself."

Ge Xiulan hadn't expected Liu Shangang to be so irresponsible: "Liu Shangang, are you even a man? How can you have the face to say that?"

Liu Shangang said in a deep voice: "You know what kind of person your sister-in-law is. With her fighting style, do you expect me, a grown man, to fight with her?"

But the Ge family didn't give them much time. Before the two could go out, the Ge family had already rushed into the courtyard.
