Chapter 335: She Would Not Waste Her Own Energy on Someone Else's Stupidity

~4 min read 773 words

Liu's mother sighed: "Think carefully and tell me if this makes sense. Apart from our own family, what has anyone else truly helped you with, or given you?"

Chunxiao actually listened this time: Yes, whether it was the eldest aunt or the third aunt, they only talked; in the end, the reason she could live well was because of her parents and her second sister.

A look of shame flashed across her face: "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have listened to others and come back to stir up trouble in the family."

Liu's father stood up, raised his hand, and patted Chunxiao's shoulder: "From now on, think things through in your mind before acting. No kind of affection can withstand repeated depletion."

Walking out of the main hall door, he glanced at his second daughter's room. He knew that if Chunxiao caused trouble like this a few more times, that sisterly bond would be reduced to mere politeness, so he had to fix Chunxiao's weakness of being easily swayed.

His second daughter not only had ability but also a hard heart; he absolutely did not want to see his daughters drifting apart.

Chuxue had not come out; they thought she was still angry and did not go to call her at the door, but in reality, after returning to her room, Chuxue had entered the space.

Starting tomorrow, she would also go to the fields to earn work points; since today was not busy, she gathered the dried red dates into the warehouse.

Looking at the lush green mountains, she couldn't let them go to waste either.

She thought about asking around tomorrow to see which family had newly hatched chickens, ducks, or geese, so she could get some to raise in the space later.

Releasing her spiritual energy, she stored all the eggs laid by the few chickens she had collected from the Ge family into the warehouse, then walked to the field edge, picked the ripe watermelons, left one outside, and stored the rest in the warehouse.

Carrying the watermelon into the kitchen of the space house, she cut it directly into four parts, kept one piece, and stored the rest in a basin in the warehouse.

She originally wanted to scoop it out with a spoon, but the spoons in the space kitchen were either made of wood or porcelain, so she had to cut it into pieces again.

One bite of watermelon down was truly refreshing; she realized: the fruit produced by the space had just the right sweetness—not bland, not cloyingly sweet, yet leaving an endless aftertaste.

She thought about finding an opportunity later to bring one back so the family could taste it too.

As for the eldest sister, it would be better to wait a while; giving things too frequently wouldn't be good either.

Dinner was made by Liu's mother; as soon as the dishes came out of the pot, she glanced at Chuxue's room, then looked at her youngest daughter who was pulling firewood out of the stove: "Go call your second sister for dinner."

Chunxiao felt a bit scared in her heart, but she stood up and replied: "Oh."

Just before Chunxiao knocked on the door, Chuxue had come out of the space; hearing the knock, she asked: "What is it?"

"Second sister, Mom has finished cooking. Come out for dinner."

"I know, I'll be right there."

Hearing the tone, Chunxiao felt relieved that her second sister must have calmed down.

Little did she know, Chuxue had never held a grudge against her at all; she would not waste her own energy on someone else's stupidity.

On the other side, Seeing Fu Yanwan had been pondering until she returned from work: "Could the figure I saw today have been my fourth brother?"

Just then, she heard some educated youths discussing: "Today, the An family's little daughter in the farm got married; the groom's family used a jeep to pick up the bride."

"Really?"

"Everyone is saying it; how could it be false?"

"What does her groom's family do?"

"Her groom's family is from Guangming Village."

"Then how could there possibly be a jeep to pick up the bride?"

"Oh, I heard; apparently, it was a relative from the wife of her brother-in-law's maiden family side."

"I know, I know; it was the car driven by the boyfriend of the wife of her brother-in-law's maiden sister. It was just good luck; the boyfriend happened to be driving over to visit his girlfriend, heard there was a wedding feast here, and came to visit his girlfriend. The Qiu family asked a question, and unexpectedly, he actually agreed."
