Let's just drift through life together in this quick transmigration story.

Xiaoying and Cui Daqiang were exchanging glances, while Xiong Bufan quietly watched the scene unfold, occasionally complaining to Kongkong.

Liu Jianping went to work in a factory to earn money. Xiong Bufan said, "We can't keep an idle person in the family forever. If there is an idle person, that person must be ourselves."

In order to increase his chances of spending time alone with Xiaoying, Cui Daqiang agreed to let Liu Jianping work in the factory, since he no longer needed her to take care of him at home, and he could manage with Xiaoying by his side.

Liu Jianping could only pack his things and go to work in the factory, doing the simplest jobs that didn't require much brainpower or physical exertion—cleaning the factory.

There was hardly anyone at home. Xiong Bufan followed behind them the whole time. When Cui Daqiang tried to kiss Xiaoying, he saw Xiong Bufan peeking out from behind the sofa. Under Kongkong's command, Xiong Bufan's eyes turned fierce, and Cui Daqiang could only run away in fear.

Xiaoying, unaware of what was going on, could only continue cleaning. Kongkong didn't like those intimate scenes from TV dramas appearing in real life, as they would corrupt Xiong Bufan.

When the TV series started airing that evening, Xiong Bufan stayed in front of the TV, while his two sons went back to their rooms to study. Xiong Ronghua was still away on a business trip and hadn't come home yet. Xiaoying quietly ran to Cui Daqiang's room.

Xiaoying started wiping away her tears, "Brother Daqiang, what happened to you? I'm so worried about you. Xiong Bufan is keeping a close eye on you, sob sob sob."

Cui Daqiang stretched out his injured arm to put his arm around Xiaoying's shoulder, but Xiaoying subtly dodged him. Xiaoying continued, "Brother Daqiang, I really feel sorry for you."

"I'll just watch you from afar. I'm so afraid that Daqiang will get hurt because of me." As she spoke, Xiaoying started to sob again.

Cui Daqiang didn't care about anything else now, and forcefully pulled Xiaoying into his arms. "Don't worry, once I'm healed, I'll take you out to live alone, just the two of us."

Where Cui Daqiang couldn't see, Xiaoying showed a look of disgust, but cried even harder, and continued, "That Xiong Bufan tricked me into signing an IOU. She actually said I owed her four thousand yuan. My life is so miserable, Brother Daqiang. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do."

Cui Daqiang felt his blood boil. This Xiong Bufan was really going too far. Cui Daqiang let go of Xiaoying and started rummaging around his bedside. He found a bankbook and said, "Xiaoying, let's go somewhere where no one knows us. I'll take you to live a good life. I'll keep this bankbook safe for now."

Xiaoying was happy when she heard the first half of the sentence, but her face darkened when she heard the second half. Who would want to spend their life with him? But she calmed herself down and said, "Brother Daqiang, Xiong Bufan keeps asking me for money. What should I do? He said he would beat me if I didn't pay."

Xiong Bufan, who was watching TV, sneezed. It sounded like someone was talking badly about him. He must be itching for a beating.

Cui Daqiang took out some money from elsewhere and gave it to Xiaoying, saying, "Use this money to deal with her first, and use the rest to buy some food to nourish yourself. You've lost weight recently."

Xiaoying was so moved that tears streamed down her face. "Brother Daqiang, you're so good to me."

"Don't cry, don't cry,"

After Xiaoying finished crying, Cui Daqiang wanted to kiss and hug her again, but Xiaoying quickly left. "Brother Daqiang, I have to go out and tidy up quickly, otherwise Xiong Bufan will beat me again."

Cui Daqiang waved his hand, "Go, go." Xiaoying, this weak woman, needed his protection. Cui Daqiang seemed to have found his own value in Xiaoying.

As soon as Xiaoying stepped out the door, she wiped away her tears, counted the money—just over two hundred yuan, a month's wages for an ordinary worker. Even a small amount is still money. Xiaoying stuffed the money into her pocket and continued packing her things.

Xiong Bufan was still watching TV in his room. Xiaoying felt guilty, so she went to the kitchen and brought some fruit and snacks upstairs to Xiong Bufan. Xiong Bufan gave her a knowing look.

To save food for his family, Liu Jianping ate and slept at the factory, living in the staff dormitory. He slept in a simple dormitory at night, and tears streamed down his face. His son and daughter-in-law were both infatuated with Xiaoying. His son was disobedient, and his daughter-in-law kicked her out to work. "How can she suffer so much?" he lamented. "She lost her husband when she was young, and she barely managed to raise her son alone. She begged and pleaded to find a wife, but she hasn't even given birth to a son yet..."

Liu Jianping's roommates gradually distanced themselves from her, and even spoke ill of her behind her back. They were all working together, so who was she crying for? An old woman crying at a funeral is a very unlucky thing, and her crying would dissipate all her good fortune.

Liu Jianping was completely unaware of his surroundings until he heard the calls of cuckoos outside the dormitory. Only then did he gradually stop crying, comb his hair, put on a padded jacket, and go out.

One of the workers, Guo Xiaofeng, winked at another worker, Zhang Xiaoxia, saying, "Look, she's gone out again."

Zhang Xiaoxia scoffed, "If you're so capable, why don't you go find one yourself?"

Guo Xiaofeng gently nudged Zhang Xiaoxia and said, "You're such a chatterbox. Go to sleep. We have work to do tomorrow morning."

Liu Jianping went out, and the village chief was waiting for her in the shared area of ​​the male and female dormitories. There were also several couples living together temporarily, but the village chief and Liu Jianping were the oldest.

After the village chief learned that Liu Jianping had gone to work in the factory, he told his wife Zhao Shuxian that he had to work overtime at night and that it was too troublesome to travel back and forth in the cold weather, so he wouldn't go home at night. In reality, he was having an affair with Liu Jianping. The two of them would stay together for a while at night and then go back to their respective dormitories. Both families kept it a secret.

Life went on like this. Every three or four days, Xiaoying would ask Cui Daqiang for money and deliberately provoke Xiong Bufan so that Cui Daqiang would see Xiaoying being beaten. Cui Daqiang wanted to give Xiaoying money to pay off her debts, but his savings were dwindling. The amount he gave Xiaoying went from over two hundred yuan to one hundred yuan, then to several tens of yuan, and now he would only give her a few yuan when she asked for money.

The good news is that Cui Daqiang is recovering well under Xiaoying's care and can now get out of bed to do some work. Xiong Bufan has seen all of this.

So one morning, Xiong Bufan packed up Cui Daqiang and sent him to work at the factory. He also took the opportunity to rob Xiaoying of the money she had swindled. Cui Daqiang had given her so much money, it was time for her to pay back her debts.

Xiaoying thought she had done everything perfectly, but when Xiong Bufan robbed her, she was stunned. It turned out that Xiong Bufan had known all along that he had cheated Cui Daqiang out of money and had even used Xiong Bufan as an excuse.

A scene from a TV series perfectly describes Xiaoying and Xiong Bufan: Xiong Bufan is like the Buddha, and Xiaoying is like Sun Wukong; no matter what, Xiaoying can't escape Xiong Bufan's grasp.

Xiong Bufan sat happily on the sofa counting her money. This kind of life, supported by her husband and his mistress, was truly blissful.

Xiaoying wasn't so happy. After being slapped twice, she continued cleaning the house, serving Xiong Bufan food, and doing laundry.

After Cui Daqiang and Liu Jianping left home, time flew by, and a new year passed in the blink of an eye. During the New Year, Cui Daqiang and Liu Jianping only returned home on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Correspondingly, the village chief also did not return home. Zhao Shuxian even went to Xiong Ronghua's house, hoping that Xiong Ronghua could take care of the village chief. He is so old, and she hoped that he could be given a few more days off during the New Year. She was too busy to be at home every day, and his son and daughter-in-law would not see him when they came back.

Xiong Ronghua asked someone to call the village chief back, but after staying at home for a day, the village chief went back to the factory. Before leaving, he scolded Zhao Shuxian, saying that he was dedicated to his job and that Zhao Shuxian should not disturb his work.

Xiong Bufan watched all this as if it were a show. Anyway, Cui Daqiang and Liu Jianping's salaries were handed directly to her every month. If the two of them dared to slack off, Xiong Bufan would slap them across the face, which made them dare not stop.

With Xiaoying taking care of things at home, even when Xiong Bufan goes out on missions, Xiaoying will still cook meals for the family on time and tidy up the house. The two kids are also gradually accepting Xiaoying's presence.

Rumors about the village chief and Liu Jianping's affair spread throughout the factory. The main reason was that as the weather warmed up, Liu Jianping and Guo Xiaofeng saw the whole thing when they went into the woods together. Moreover, they found out that the village chief had a wife. Gossip is always exciting, especially when it involves romantic matters.

The rumors eventually reached Zhao Shuxian's ears. After sending Cui Hong to her maternal grandmother's house, Zhao Shuxian rushed to the factory and saw the village chief helping Liu Jianping clean up. The rumors were probably true.
