Chapter 1716: Then This Grudge Must Be Settled Today

~4 min read 731 words

She spoke quietly, but Liu Chuxue heard it.

Zhang Yurong, who was closest to that woman, naturally heard it too and her face changed instantly: "Aunt, what are you saying?"

Liu Chuxue glanced at Fu Jinyi sleeping on the bed: "Third sister-in-law, the things have been delivered. We'll leave first; we still need to go tell Mom something."

Hearing this, Zhang Yurong also breathed a sigh of relief. Her own fourth sister-in-law was no pushover; she probably didn't want to disturb Fu Jinyi's sleep, so she hadn't directly retorted: "Fine, go ahead and get busy."

Since she was leaving, she naturally couldn't leave the triplets there: "Let's go. Your sister is tired and fell asleep. Mom will bring you over another day."

Le Bao glanced over at the bed, took a piece of chocolate from his pocket, and said: "Third aunt, give this to sister to eat."

Zhang Yurong was just about to refuse, but when she saw the chocolate in her hand, the words were stuck in her throat.

A few days ago, Fu Jinyi had mentioned wanting to eat chocolate, but not only was it ridiculously expensive, it could only be bought at the Friendship Store, and she hadn't been willing to spend the money.

Seeing that her little nephew was sincerely giving it: "Then Third aunt will thank our Le Bao. Once sister gets better, I'll take you all to play together."

Le Bao nodded: "Okay, then sister must get better soon."

Liu Chuxue smiled at her daughter, not expecting the little one to generously give her cousin the chocolate she herself couldn't bear to eat: "Our Le Bao is truly great."

After speaking, she took Le Bao's hand: "Let's go; we can't disturb sister's rest."

The triplets were quite sensible; they nodded and followed Liu Chuxue out of the room.

Seeing Grandma standing in the yard, they didn't shout. Le Bao even put a finger to his lips, signaling his own grandma to be quiet: "Grandma, cousin Fu Jinyi is asleep; let's speak quietly."

Fu's mother scooped Le Bao up in her arms and kissed his cheek: "My Le Bao is truly sensible."

Liu Chuxue glanced toward the room where the third branch lived: "Mom, who is that woman in the plaid coat inside my third sister-in-law's room?"

Hearing this, Fu's mother's heart skipped a beat; could something have just happened? She quickly feigned composure and said: "She is your third sister-in-law's aunt. What's wrong? Did she bother you?"

Liu Chuxue tested: "She just called me a fox spirit. I've never met this person before; she came to visit as a guest. I don't know why she said that about me."

Upon hearing this, anger colored Fu's mother's face: "That woman really has no shame."

She didn't lower her voice on purpose; if it weren't for the fact that her granddaughter hadn't recovered yet, she would have rushed in and torn her apart.

At that moment, people from Zhang Yurong's natal family who had come to visit the sick walked out.

Fu's mother stepped forward and chatted with those people, but she simply ignored the woman who had called Liu Chuxue a fox spirit.

Fu's mother made it so obvious that those few naturally sensed it too.

After they left, Fu's mother finally said: "That woman is your third sister-in-law's aunt, and also the mother of Jiang Xiaoya from the army's communications company."

Upon hearing this, she understood; no wonder she said that about her. It turned out she was Jiang Xiaoya's mother.

Since she dared to provoke me, this grudge must be settled today: "Mom, that's all in the past; I won't hold it against her. Please help me look after the triplets; I'm going to the toilet."

Fu's mother suspected nothing: "Go ahead; I'll take them back to the room to play right now."

Liu Chuxue asked Song Sanrui and Wei Wenbin to help watch the triplets, then turned and left through the main gate.

Wei Wenbin watched Liu Chuxue's back; that woman was surely in for trouble.

Just as he predicted, Liu Chuxue quickly followed behind those few people. A small stone flew from her hand, and the woman's bicycle tire suddenly twisted. The woman, caught off guard, fell straight to the ground. It happened to be at a corner, and she bumped directly against the curb.

Two front teeth gloriously went on leave.
