Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 238

Qiu Jouxuan originally wanted to talk back, but Huang Yufeng apologized, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry."

Wiping her tears, she cautiously asked her daughter, "Qingmei, it’s almost noon. What do you want to eat?"

Qiu Qingmei felt extremely aggrieved. When she left home, her parents hid the truth from her, and only told her that she was going with relatives to see the world. She really believed it, and came happily, but once she got here, she was forced to donate a kidney. How could she face people in the future?

Now things have turned out this way. If that woman is sentenced, the promises made before will certainly fall through. How could she go to college then?

Wasn’t it like losing both the chick and the eggs? She lost a kidney for nothing, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt she’d suffered a loss. It was clearly the grudges of the elders, yet she had to suffer. The more she thought about it, the more suffocated she felt, and suddenly she started to find it difficult to breathe.

This frightened Huang Yufeng terribly, "Her father, quickly call the doctor."

At the Mechanical Factory, Yu Xinyan had been busy recently, going to school during the day to study and returning home at night to research a few books, gleefully preoccupied.

Meanwhile, those who intended harm were quietly dealt with by He Jinxuan, which brought peace to the factory.

But the next day, news spread from Xiaoqiao Village. Wang Daqing had already been beaten to the point where he couldn’t get out of bed, and now, mysteriously afflicted by some strange disease, he was scratching himself raw from itching, an unbearable sight.

And then, this morning, another message came—that Wang Lanhua, no one knew whom she had offended, but starting yesterday her skin began peeling. According to those who had seen her, it was utterly terrifying, as there wasn’t a single unscathed spot on her body, giving people the creeps.

Yu Xinyan didn’t have to worry about these matters, as Zhao Jianlan, the little loudspeaker, naturally broadcasted them.

Yu Xinyan just chuckled upon hearing it and offhandedly remarked, "It’s probably retribution for too many bad deeds, punishment from heaven."

Zhao Jianlan looked around before whispering, "Let me tell you something."

Yu Xinyan saw her doing this and chuckled lightly, "Just say it if you have something. You’re acting as if it’s something shady."

Zhao Jianlan raised her hand to give Yu Xinyan a pat, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

After the pat, she laughed again and rubbed Yinyan’s shoulder, "I heard from the aunt next door. Yao Hui has been borrowing money everywhere in the courtyard these days, and it’s become quite a spectacle. Everyone runs like they’ve seen a ghost whenever they see her."

Yu Xinyan heard this and imagined the scene, bursting out laughing, "Probably too many debts, no one dares to lend to her."

Zhao Jianlan agreed, "You’ve hit the nail on the head. That’s exactly what the wives in the courtyard are saying too. Everyone’s already stretched tight. If they lend her money, who knows when it’ll be returned."

Meanwhile, Yao Hui, whom they were talking about, was worried sick. The reason was nothing else; another telegram from Beilan Village had arrived, with one purpose—asking for money.

Yao Hui cursed those greedy people back home, but she didn’t want to lose face in front of her in-laws either. So, she’s shamelessly been asking everyone for money these past few days to the point that everyone avoids her whenever they see her.

She had become a spectacle in the compound. Wherever she went, it wouldn’t be long before people would find various excuses to leave. The scene was really quite funny.

Meanwhile, in Beilan Village, an all-out fight was unfolding, with the Yu Family and the Lyu Family clashing.

The reason was that Granny Lyu was distressed over the money given to the Yu Family and went around saying that the Yu Family was unscrupulous, living off selling adopted daughters, even revealing that the money used to build the Yu Family’s house was left by Yu Xinyan’s relatives.

This wasn’t something they made up; they heard it from the whispers in the Mechanical Factory’s family compound. They knew Yu Xinyan had cut ties with the Yu Family.

The Yu Family hadn’t said anything when they returned to the village, afraid they wouldn’t get the Lyu Family’s compensation. But unexpectedly, as soon as they got the money, before they could complain about the Lyu Family, the Lyu Family accused them of being unscrupulous.

They couldn’t tolerate it, so in less than two days, rumors about what Lyu Juncheng had done spread throughout Beilan Village, becoming a major laughing stock in the village.

The Lyu Family, upon hearing this, wouldn’t stand for it. This young lady was about to get married; how could such rumors spread at this time?

So, Old Man Lyu came early with some people to confront the Yu Family. But the Yu Family wasn’t afraid of the matter escalating, as neither family believed they were in the wrong. And just like that, they brawled with each other.
