Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Wish Check-in Machine
Chapter 86 60 The Youngest Daughter of a Farming Family (19)
Liu Xue'er turned her head and gave Xia Mingwei an awkward smile. "Weiwei, don't listen to your sister-in-law! She was just talking nonsense, don't take it to heart!"
"So, Second Sister-in-law, are you saying that everything Eldest Sister-in-law said just now was a lie?"
"Yes, yes, you're so smart! That's exactly what I meant!"
"Second sister-in-law, in your heart, am I so easy to fool, so stupid?"
Liu Xue'er initially assumed Xia Mingwei had largely believed her when she spoke to her. However, she was surprised when Xia Mingwei suddenly changed her tone and appeared completely unconvinced.
She looked at Xia Mingwei's face again, and immediately met her eyes, which held a half-smile. It seemed Xia Mingwei had always known that what had just happened was merely an act!
Thinking of this, Liu Xue'er asked incredulously, "When exactly did you find out?"
Xia Ming tilted her head slightly and asked, "Second Sister-in-law, I know a lot of things. Which one are you referring to?"
As she spoke, Xia Mingwei patted her head, "Or are you saying that you all conspired to lie to me about this?"
"If you're going to bring this up, you're way too early! I knew it was a scam the moment you started talking to me!"
"Knowing it's a scam, why did you still..." Liu Xue'er's voice trailed off.
"Watching you act?" Xia Mingwei casually picked up where Liu Xueer left off.
"Now that you've set up the stage, who are you performing for without me as the audience? Besides, this play is so wonderful, wouldn't it be a waste if I didn't enjoy it?"
At the end, Xia Mingwei patted Liu Xueer's shoulder, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "Second sister-in-law, don't think you're the only smart one in the world and treat everyone else like fools! Otherwise, one day, you'll be taught a lesson by the 'fools' you think you are!"
After hearing Xia Mingwei's words, Liu Xue'er was somewhat angered. She, a city girl, had actually been lectured by this country bumpkin. One day, she'd teach her a lesson.
Xia Mingwei had originally planned to leave after saying these words, but in an instant, she felt that she had something more important to say to Liu Xueer.
She turned around, smiled, and said, "By the way, Second Sister-in-law, you did get one thing right! Whether this gets accepted or not depends entirely on my mood! And right now, I just don't want to earn this money! You and Eldest Sister-in-law had better put away your little schemes for now, otherwise I'm afraid you'll end up with nothing!"
After saying this, Xia Mingwei ignored Liu Xueer's expression and left in a good mood.
Liu Xueer was trembling with anger behind her, but there was nothing she could do at the moment, so she could only kick the table next to her to vent her frustration.
After this ordeal, Xia Mingwei knew that the time was almost right for the family to separate!
As expected, seeing that they could no longer squeeze any more money out of Xia Mingwei, the two men began to stir up trouble in front of Xia Mingwei's two older brothers, urging them to divide the family property.
"If you ask me, we should just separate the family sooner rather than later! Now that your brother and I are all married, how can we expect you to be a spoiled little sister?"
"And your sister still insists on writing articles. It's been so long, and apart from that one time at the beginning, she hasn't won any awards! We can't keep wasting our time with her!"
"If we separate the family sooner, we can work harder and save more money for Tianbao so he can get a wife in the future!"
Lin Fang painted a rosy picture for Xia Aiguo, outlining the bright future after the family split.
On Liu Xueer's side, it was more about calculating interests.
“Aimin, why don’t we just split up the family sooner rather than later! Think about it, just look at your eldest brother’s family. Only two people work, but they have so many mouths to feed! We also have two people working, but only two people eat. If you think about it this way, your eldest brother and his family are taking advantage of us a lot!”
"And your little sister, now I see it clearly. She never wanted to win the manuscript; she was just playing us for fools! She never did anything at home, just freeloading! But your parents didn't care about that. They were convinced she would amount to something, and they were determined to support her education. Just think about it, in the end, all that money will have to come from the family's savings!"
"If we don't split up sooner or later, this money will run out! In the end, how much money will we still get?"
...
And so, Xia Mingwei's two brothers each had their own plans. But these two brothers were true to their word; their thoughts immediately aligned. They ultimately agreed that their wives were right, and that the family should be divided as soon as possible.
The two had made up their minds to separate, but they hadn't found a suitable opportunity to bring it up.
But to my surprise, just as I was about to doze off, my pillow appeared.
That afternoon, the Xia family received devastating news. While working in the fields, Xia's father had accidentally injured his foot.
While Xia's father was lifting the plow with others, the part that should have been tightened somehow came loose. The sharp blade struck Xia's father's instep hard, causing a large pool of blood to flow immediately.
Xia's father fainted on the spot due to the intense pain. Seeing this, the other villagers quickly found a cart, lifted Xia's father onto the cart, and pulled him back.
Although Xia's mother was known for her fierce temper, she was still terrified by what she had just witnessed. Seeing her old man lying weakly on the cart, tears streamed down her face as if they were free.
After the initial pain subsided, Xia's father finally regained consciousness. Seeing Xia's usually strong-willed mother struggling to hold back her tears beside him, he weakly moved his lips, wanting to comfort her.
He opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't utter a sound. Xia's mother put her ear close to Xia's father's mouth and listened for a long time before she could understand that what Xia's father wanted to say was, "Honey, don't worry, I'm fine!"
Upon hearing this, Xia's mother could no longer hold back her tears. She gently pounded Xia's father's chest with her hand, "You're in this state, and you still say you're fine? Wait here, we'll go home, get the money, and take you to see a doctor!"
Mother Xia led her entourage home, weary from their journey. She found the iron box where she always kept her money, took out all the money, and stuffed it into her inner pocket.
Before she could even take a sip of water, Xia's mother was preparing to take this group and Xia's father to the hospital. Unexpectedly, she ran into Lin Fang, Liu Xue'er, and her two sons at the door.
It turned out they had heard the news and rushed back in a hurry.
However, Xia's mother was not in the mood to say anything more to them at the moment. Just as she was about to leave, Lin Fang and Liu Xue'er blocked her way.
