Era: The naive beauty charmed the villain!

Gu Qingsong couldn't let her leave just like that.

He grabbed the basket Xu Fengjuan was carrying and stopped her, saying, "Hey, what do you mean? What do you take this place for? You think you can just come and go as you please?"

Xu Fengjuan was initially hesitant, having gone to great lengths to come all this way, only to gain nothing in return.

She was somewhat unwilling to go back so dejectedly.

But Gu Qingsong's pulling only strengthened Xu Fengjuan's resolve to get away as soon as possible.

Although her son came from her womb, he was never close to her from a young age.

Now, suddenly, they've changed their usual attitude towards her, pulling her around and preventing her from leaving.

Xu Fengjuan's alarm bells rang loudly, feeling that Gu Qingsong was definitely up to no good and might really be planning to take her to the city to do hard labor to pay off his debts.

Xu Fengjuan tried her best to shake off Gu Qingsong's hand, but Gu Qingsong held on tightly and she couldn't shake it off no matter how many times she tried.

"I have things to do at home, don't hold me!"

Gu Qingsong held onto the basket tightly: "Is there anything else you need to do? I also have something I need your help with."

Lin An'an chimed in, "Yes, we used all the money and coupons we brought back to buy meat, and we don't even know where our next meal is coming from."

Xu Fengjuan felt a chill in her heart. It seemed she would have to leave something behind to appease these two debt collectors.

With a gritted tooth, he slipped the basket off his arm and said angrily, "Shameless bastards! This much cornbread is enough to shut you up. Don't come looking for me again!"

After saying that, Xu Fengjuan took advantage of the moment when Gu Qingsong was holding the basket and couldn't reach out to grab her, and quickly ran away.

Sure enough, although Xu Fengjuan is old, she is very nimble and runs very fast.

In the blink of an eye, Lin An'an was already outside the courtyard.

Xu Fengjuan didn't dare look back the whole way, and hurried back to the Li family home.

Only after entering his own yard did he have time to stop and catch his breath.

Xu Fengjuan glanced behind her and thankfully wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Those who become landlords are indeed no good; even if they are removed from their positions now, they will not change their nature.

They don't even take a piss to see what they look like, yet they dare to eat meat every meal! Bah!

Luckily she ran fast, otherwise she would have been stuck with them.

After confirming that Gu Qingsong and Lin An'an had not caught up, Xu Fengjuan finally felt a little relieved.

She secretly resolved to avoid going in the Gu family's direction as much as possible in the future, lest she get entangled with them.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The sound of Li Yongfa coughing could be heard from inside the room.

Xu Fengjuan frowned. That old geezer had been lying in the house for quite some time now, using his broken leg as an excuse.

She was burdened with all the responsibilities both at home and outside, which nearly exhausted her.

Hearing the incessant coughing from inside the room, Xu Fengjuan was furious. She strode forward, pushed open the door, and shouted angrily, "Cough cough cough, I wish I hadn't coughed you to death!"

"All you do is lie in bed and be lazy all day..."

Before Xu Fengjuan could finish speaking, she stepped into the room and was immediately hit by a pipe.

Xu Fengjuan narrowly dodged to the side, almost twisting her back in the process.

Composing herself, she looked into the room and saw Li Yongfa half-lying on the bed, coughing and glaring at her with a flushed face. His eyes looked like he wanted to devour her alive.

Xu Fengjuan instinctively flinched, but once she realized that Li Yong couldn't do anything to her, she immediately stood up straight.

"You damned coffin head! I work myself to the bone to support you, and you dare to smash my things? Today I'll show you what I'm made of!"

Xu Fengjuan rolled up her sleeves and pounced on Li Yongfa, determined to scratch his face until it was covered in welts.

Although Li Yongfa's leg was broken and he did not receive proper treatment, his body became increasingly weak as he spent more time in bed.

But he was still a man, and his upper body strength had not completely deteriorated.

Seeing Xu Fengjuan rushing towards him, Li Yongfa was not afraid at all; he had had enough of this for some time now.

He tolerated Xu Fengjuan's open and subtle sarcasm after he lay down in bed, but what he couldn't stand the most was Xu Fengjuan's behavior.

Men are like this; they come home from work and don't take good care of their families, instead they're always running around outside.

The hat on his head must be so green it's practically glowing!

If it weren't for him, Xu Fengjuan would never have been able to remarry. And now she dares to treat him like this.

Li Yongfa grew increasingly resentful. He was bad at swearing, so he just hit him harder.

Xu Fengjuan was caught off guard and was hit by him several times, which made her even angrier.

For a time, the two fought fiercely, neither gaining the upper hand.
