Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 239 Quarrel

Even though Lin Anna was not happy about it, she signed all the IOUs due to Zhuang Shouren's insistence and the villagers' eager eyes.

As for the compensations for Xue Li and Luo Chengli, they had already been received, and the reason for keeping them was just to see more of Lin Anna's angry but speechless face.

"She deserves it." Luo Xinci said in a low voice. It was really satisfying to see this woman in trouble.

Xue Li took a deep breath, put his hands on his knees and rubbed them gently twice, a meaningless smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

Wait until my leg heals, Lin Anna, and we'll settle the accounts.

Lin Anna stood dazed beside the wooden table. In front of her was Zhuang Shouren sorting out IOUs, while the villagers around her were chatting and laughing.

She raised her eyes slightly and looked at the people leaning against the wall. Chen Jinghan was bending over and talking to Xue Li with his head down. His eyes were so gentle, and Xue Li's fair face was glowing in the sunlight. They were really a perfect match.

Hehe! Bullshit! Chen Jinghan is mine! He can only be mine! Xue Li, you were lucky last time, but that doesn't mean you will always have such good luck!

And...Lin Anna's gaze shifted to Jiang Yu who was standing behind Xue Li. The man was in a daze with boredom, and his slender figure made him look like a handsome young boy.

You will all pay the price, otherwise how can you justify my loss this time! Lin Anna calculated silently in her heart.

Jiang Yu's sharp eyes pierced her, and Lin Anna lowered her head in just a moment.

A clown. Jiang Yu thought that this person must be planning something shady again, so let's give it a try and see who will be unlucky!

The wooden door was opened from the inside, and the villagers who had resolved the compensation issue were very happy. They came out in twos and threes, chatting and laughing, and rushed home, ready to share the good news with their families.

Although they have not received cash yet, they have used Lin Anna's work points to pay off the debt, 2 points per work point, so they have earned it, right? It's just a matter of waiting.

Anyway, the team leader said that no matter how many work points Lin Anna earned, he would share them equally with everyone. Every year, we could earn more work points. What's wrong with that? Anyway, the family situation is still acceptable now, and we haven't really reached the point where we can't make ends meet.

Cui Xiaofen stood aside and watched them leave talking and laughing, the anger in her heart burning fiercely.

Chen Jinghan pushed Xue Li out, and together with Jiang Yu, they saw Cui Xiaofen with a gloomy face, and they were immediately shocked.

This was the first time they saw Cui Xiaofen in person after returning to the team. She had lost a lot of weight.

The face that had been fairly well maintained now had a black scar the length of a finger across it, and coupled with the unfriendly look in his eyes, it looked extremely frightening.

Xue Li and Jiang Yu were both stunned for a moment, then silently withdrew their gaze and left quietly.

Cui Xiaofen knew she had to avoid the crowd, but her anger overcame her rationality at the time, so she forgot about it. Now, the wound that she had concealed was exposed.

Without waiting until dark, everyone in the team would know how horrific her wound was. By the time Cui Xiaofen realized this, her rationality had completely left home.

Zhuang Shouren sat in the room for a long time and didn't want to go out because he didn't want to face Cui Xiaofen.

But there is no use hiding, what needs to be faced will eventually come.

After Cui Xiaofen chased Zhuang Aimin out, she slammed the door shut and rushed to Zhuang Shouren, her pointed fingers about to poke him in the eyes, "Zhuang Shouren! Why don't you come out? Didn't I tell you I have something to talk to you about? Why don't you come out!!"

The sharp sound seemed to pierce Zhuang Shouren's ears directly, making the back of his head numb.

Zhuang Shouren closed his eyes, and finally looked at his wife tiredly and said, "What do you want to talk to me about? Can't you wait until I get home?"

"No!!" If Zhuang Shouren couldn't be stopped at that time, then everything would be meaningless! Just like now, Cui Xiaofen could only roar at him angrily, but there was no other way.

"What did Dahe tell you?" Zhuang Shouren guessed that he was willing to lend money to Cui Xiaofen to get her face treated, otherwise why would she be so anxious for Lin Anna's money?

Seeing his nonchalant look, Cui Xiaofen became even angrier. She slammed the table hard, "It's all your fault, it's all your fault! Otherwise, Lin Anna's money would be mine! You knew I needed money now, why didn't you come out?! Zhuang Shouren, you bastard!"

"Who doesn't need money?" Zhuang Shouren smiled. Is there anyone who doesn't need money these days?

"Xue Li doesn't need it! Luo Chengli doesn't need it either! They are obviously so rich, why are they still targeting Lin Anna and asking her to pay compensation!?" Cui Xiaofen growled.

She is the one who needs the money the most, why not let her use it? Why can't she use it first? Her face can't wait any longer...

Zhuang Shouren nodded. "Yes, they have money, but the compensation should have been given to them. What does it have to do with you?"

"Lin Anna said she could lend me the money first! She said I could pay it back slowly... If Dahe and her... are together in the future, I won't even have to pay it back! Zhuang Shouren, it's all your fault, you hypocritical guy! It's your fault! It's all your fault!" Cui Xiaofen glared at Zhuang Shouren with red eyes, as if she was looking at someone with whom she had a deep hatred.

Zhuang Shouren sneered, "You don't have to pay it back yet... She can find a way to get you to hold me back today and not pay back the villagers' money. Tomorrow she can make you suffer in silence and have you pay back the money!"

"Do you think I'm a fool? Ah! Zhuang Shouren, if it weren't for you!! If you hadn't given all the money to your mother, would I have coveted Lin Anna's hundred dollars? It's nothing that you give money to your parents every year, it's as you should, but before you gave away all the family money this time, have you ever thought about me? Have you ever thought about our whole family? The second child hasn't married yet, and the boy in the eldest family is still breastfeeding, have you ever thought about how we are going to live?" Cui Xiaofen questioned him hysterically. She couldn't understand why she was never the first person he considered when he did things, even though she was the one who was going to spend her whole life with him.

Zhuang Shouren frowned when he heard this, "My father is in poor health, shouldn't I help him?"

“Do I have to empty my family’s pockets to help you? Do I have to disregard the lives of other family members to help you? Zhuang Shouren, I am your wife, the wife who will be with you until death!!” Cui Xiaofen held onto the table, her eyes filled with uncontrollable disappointment and madness.

Zhuang Shouren waved his hand, "This is not an accident. I didn't say I wouldn't let you see a doctor. It's just that my family is in financial difficulty right now. Can't you wait a little longer?"
