I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 228: Opening the Box to Surprise

Chapter 228: Chapter 228: Opening the Box to Surprise

Caught red-handed by Yu Jingting, Yu Shuigou and his wife didn’t dare to linger in the city, and fear grew as they rushed back to the village.

The couple even started to fight on the way back, blaming each other.

If they hadn’t resorted to threats, but simply pleaded poverty to Wang Cuihua, they might have been able to borrow some money.

Yu Jingting was in trouble at the time. If Yu’s couple, as relatives, could offer some help to Wang Cuihua and Suizi, would the latter just watch them suffer?

Some things didn’t add up at the time, but the more they thought about it, the more wrong it seemed.

Yu Shuigou and his wife finally realized that they had many other options, but they chose the worst possible move.

They didn’t borrow any money and completely offended Yu Jingting.

For several days after they returned to the village, they didn’t dare to venture out.

The glass windows of their house were nailed shut with wooden bars for fear that Yu Jingting would come and break them.

They lived in fear for several days but nothing happened.

Yu Shuigou and his wife thought that Yu Jingting had let it go. Just as they breathed a sigh of relief, Yu Jingting showed up with Suizi.

Yu Jingting drove a tractor with Suizi, who was holding a cardboard box that looked like it contained gifts.

He told everyone he met that he was visiting his uncle. In a short time, the whole village knew he was there.

When Yu Shuigou and his wife heard the noise of the tractor, they saw from a distance that it was Yu Jingting. They quickly locked the front door, wanting to hide inside and pretend no one was home.

Upon entering the house, they saw Yu Jingting standing behind them.

"Oh my God!!!" They screamed in shock. Was he a ghost?

How did he get in?

Yu Jingting cheerfully pointed to the back door and commented that some people only think about the obvious and forget the hidden risks.

Suizi slowly walked in. Her walking style had changed since her pregnancy. To Yu Jingting, her slow and precarious steps were rather endearing.

"What are you two up to? In broad daylight, don’t you dare do anything outrageous!"

The uncle backed away fearfully, wishing he held a kitchen knife for defense.

"We are just visiting relatives. Don’t worry, I am not going to hit you, or scold you, nor smash your windows."

Every word from Yu Jingting makes his uncle’s heart skip a beat.

"Then why are you here?" the aunt asked apprehensively.

"We are family. The current strained relationship doesn’t suit us. So, we have come to see you and have also brought some gifts."

Suizi spoke so cordially that there was no fault in it.

The aunt looked out at Yu Jingting’s words.

Yu Jingting’s tractor was parked in front of the courtyard, clearly showing a box written "Sticky Rice Cake" on it, along with some graphics.

The aunt’s heart swelled with joy. Were they bringing a box of pastries?

"Why are you being so polite?"

"It’s nothing. It’s normal for relatives to visit each other. My wife, since becoming pregnant, has craved eggs laid by village chickens. It’s hard to find them in the city."

"We have some at home, I’ll get them for you."

The aunt hesitated, thinking that a box of Sticky Rice Cakes was more valuable than a few chicken eggs. But gritting her teeth, she went inside.

She initially wanted to grab three or five chicken eggs, but upon turning around, she found Yu Jingting had followed her in.

"Aunt, you’re too kind."

With one hand, he picked up the basket of eggs from the kang.

Aunt: ???

"So many eggs, we won’t be able to eat them all."

The aunt nodded wildly, thinking ’yeah, so put them down.’

"No worries, my wife can pickle the eggs into salted ones. Once done, they even have oil coming out of them. It’s amazing."

The aunt wanted to whack him with her shoe.

"Wife! Let’s not keep the uncle any longer. Let’s get home."

When Suizi watched him pick up the basket and run out, she held back a laugh.

He did not even spare the basket with the eggs in it.

How was this any different from a bandit?

Uncle and Auntie held their breaths of rage as they sent them off through the front door, not because of the visitors, but because of the sticky rice cake on the tracker.

Suizi got in first, Yu Jingting was waving, the vehicle started, and only then did Suizi hand over the box to auntie.

"Just a small gift, don’t scoff at it."

All the neighbors saw this.

"Tiegen, are you back to visit your uncle?"

"Yeah, uncle even gave us a basket of eggs, he’s really nice." Yu Jingting shouted this out so loud, all the neighbors heard it.

Auntie holding the box of sticky rice cake, was all smiles.

Just watch this scene, you’d think they are a happy family.

Neighbors were impressed, Tiegen is such a straightforward man.

Despite the dispute over the land division, he came back bearing gifts, this is what you get after seeing the world in the city.

After making a show with his wife, Yu Jingting drove off in his small tractor, while Suizi held the basket of eggs and roughly counted.

"Thirty eggs, even mixed in with two duck eggs, three cents each, that’s already a dollar, auntie will be in pain for a long time, don’t know if she will curse us when she sees our return gift... she may be cursing our ancestors?"

"Let her curse, we can’t hear it anyway."

Auntie, with joy in her heart, held the box and entered the house. The couple then locked the door.

Fearing the neighbors might come knocking for a share of the cake.

"Daddy, why can’t I smell the sticky rice cake?"

"It’s sealed in a plastic bag, so the smell doesn’t come out."

Ripping open the tape on the box, they opened it, but didn’t see any sticky rice cake.

All it had inside was....

"Popcorn?!!"

Auntie was in disbelief, she turned the box over with her hand.

A box full of popcorn.

It was a little stale too, not crisp at all.

Even though there seems like a lot, it’s really just a couple of cups of raw corn, popped, hell, add a little processing fee and you’d get a big pot of it!

"You tiger of a woman! The popcorn weighs so much less than the rice cake, you didn’t notice when you picked up the box?"

Uncle was angry enough to start swearing.

Aunty felt wronged.

"It felt quite heavy when I picked it up, what’s going on, huh?!"

From under the pile of popcorn, aunty found a sleek smooth stone.

The stone was palm-sized, smooth and flat with a phrase written on it by Suizi with a brush: Unbox for Joy

Joy my ass!

Uncle and Auntie were nearly pissed to death.

That pair, Yu Jingting, really can piss people off!

"No, we have to take the opportunity to go to the city, Chen Hansui has a regular job, right? Let’s stir up trouble at her workplace and make her lose her job!"

When someone gets angry, they can do things that harm others but themselves as well.

Uncle and his wife were in a daze of anger, all they thought about was beating the Yu family at their own game.

But if they could think it, how could Suizi not?

"To come all the way from the city, of course, we can’t just use a box of popcorn to upset them, it wouldn’t cover the cost of the petrol."

Suizi hugged the egg basket, saying to Yu Jingting.

"Are you sure about the thing you are handling?"

"Already settled, I’ve discovered that you are really bad."

"Well, we can’t exactly say bad, this is strategy. It’s not my intention to harm people, they’re the ones with evil intentions. In a few months, our baby will be born, and I don’t want to waste energy on fighting with them."

Suizi held her stomach, who doesn’t want a smooth sailing life, without any waves?

But a happy life doesn’t just fall into your lap, You sometimes need to use your brain too.

"Jingting, should we place a bet? Let’s bet on when uncle and aunt will come knocking on our door."
