Married the Tough Guy After Transmigrating
Chapter 316 - 317: Ingrate

Chapter 316: Chapter 317: Ingrate

Xu Ying’s entire body was cold and sharp, and she kicked straight at Zhao Jiazong’s arm. Zhao Jiazong cried out in pain, his hand knocked to the side.

Taking advantage of his momentary daze, Xu Ying’s hand grasped Zhao Jiazong’s wrist, and a cracking sound followed. Zhao Jiazong let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered: "Ah~ Murder!"

Xu Ying, irritated by the noise, kicked toward Zhao Jiazong’s chest and said with slightly parted lips, "Scram."

Zhao Jiazong’s eyes were bloodshot with pain as sweat poured from his body. Meeting Xu Ying’s ice-cold gaze, he didn’t dare not to submit. After glancing at Xu Ying, he repressed his resentment and quickly fled from the terrifying woman.

The people from the Youth Corps watched this scene, their bodies froze, and they stopped charging forward, looking at Xu Ying with terror in their eyes.

"Xu Ying, what do you want to do? Do you really think you can take on all of us alone?"

Xu Ying stood in front of the Xu Family, her sharp gaze sweeping over these people. The chill she emanated made everyone shiver involuntarily.

"Daughter, you’re finally back." Mrs. Xu had been scared to the point of being soaked through, and now, seeing her daughter, her grievances burst forth as she hugged Xu Ying and started crying.

Mr. Xu’s face showed shock, looking at his daughter with renewed scrutiny.

When had his daughter become so formidable? He wasn’t even aware.

"It’s alright now!" Xu Ying looked at her mother, her heart aching, and after comforting Mrs. Xu, she quickly turned back to face the Youth Corps, her eyes filled with anger.

She looked up at the crowd, sarcasm in her eyes: "My second brother is a teacher, but just a teacher, not a bookseller. However, his students do have books. What, do you really want to fight with a group of elementary school children over books?

It turns out that educated city folks aren’t that great after all. Each of you acts like bandits. Do we owe you anything?

Now is an era of the rule of law. Do you still want to rob and kill?

With such a cancerous attitude, I think you shouldn’t even bother trying for college. If you get in, who knows, you might just become a scourge on society.

Not a bit of intelligence, and also so selfish."

As Xu Ying spoke, everyone’s face showed enraged embarrassment, glaring at Xu Ying: "We just want to borrow some books, why won’t your family lend them?"

Xu Ying curled her lips, a light laugh escaping her. Her beautiful face was full of mockery: "What does my family have to do with you?

Do we have to lend you books just because you want to borrow them? If you put it that way, I like the clothes you’re wearing. Take them off and let me wear them."

The speaker instantly blushed.

"Yes, Yingying is right. How can you Youth Corps members be so ungrateful? Look at what kind of houses the Youth Corps in other villages live in.

How has Captain Xu treated you? When you first arrived, it was snowing heavily. Captain Xu was afraid you wouldn’t adapt and would freeze, so he gathered everyone from the village to build houses for you.

Didn’t Captain Xu cover all your grain for your first year here?

A bunch of ungrateful jerks. You’re still thinking about college; you might not contribute to society at all, and who knows, you might even do something illegal."

"Yeah, why are these Youth Corps members such ingrates!"

"Even if you feed an animal, it’ll give you something in return. Captain Xu shouldn’t have been so kind and let these bastards starve back then," huffed the villagers angrily.

"Not helping you is our prerogative; helping you is out of kindness. Our family has no obligation to allocate books for you specifically.

Anyone who still wants to fight, come forward; Zhao Zhiqing’s fate will be your fate.

Oh, and by the way, this is self-defense, not illegal.

Thank you also to all the ladies and gentlemen. I actually brought back college entrance exam materials from Shanghai this time.

Originally, I was planning to distribute them in the village so that anyone who wants to take the college entrance exam could study together.

But now I feel there is no need. It will be for Xu Family Village only; anyone with a child can bring them to the wheat field, and we can study together there.

I just got back today, so I’m going to have dinner with my family. That’s all." Finishing her speech, Xu Ying led her family into the courtyard and closed the door behind her.

The few people who had come to cause trouble had flushed faces, each one full of regret, "Xu Ying was right, her family is under no obligation to help us borrow books.

We now look just like bandits, had we not made a fuss.

Xu Ying would have still given us test materials, and now we’ve lost everything," the man angrily said, now too ashamed to face the people of Xu Family Village.

Xu Ying entered the courtyard where Mrs. Xu, holding back tears, pulled her daughter close, filled with relief.

Her daughter had grown up and could protect her now.

Xu Ying smiled at Mrs. Xu, looking at the white hairs on her head, feeling a bittersweet sting in her heart, time truly spared no one.

"Mom, let’s go inside, I have something nice for you," she said, leading Mrs. Xu into the house.

She took out several stacks of ten-yuan bills.

"This is the translation money I earned from foreign trade exchanges, and some additional money for formulas."

She had gone for seven days, working as a translator for seven days.

In total, eighteen factories had sought her out for translation work, each paying two yuan a day, altogether amounting to two hundred and fifty-two yuan.

Adding several formula fees, with one at six hundred, six formulas in total, the sum came to three thousand six hundred yuan.

Seeing so much money on the table, Mrs. Xu was dumbfounded, "How can there be so much!"

Xu Ying beamed with pride, "This is nothing, this time I brought in over a million US dollars for the food factory and the textile factory. I estimate my commission will amount to several hundreds of thousands.

Once I get my salary, I’ll buy a house in the county for you and Dad to live in during your old age."

When Mrs. Xu heard that her daughter wanted to buy a house in the county, her face was immediately filled with shock and elation; however, she quickly shook her head, "Your father and I are fine just living at home, why go there?

Everything costs money in the county, buying vegetables costs money, buying grains costs money, it’s not as good as home! We can still grow our own vegetables."

Xu Ying felt that her mother was missing the point and said again, "This time, my commission might be several hundred thousand."

This time Mrs. Xu heard clearly and became so excited that she couldn’t speak coherently, "Daugh... daughter, you’re not teasing your mom, are you?

This joke isn’t funny at all."

Hundreds of thousands, good lord, she had never even seen ten thousand yuan in her lifetime.

How could it be possible to make hundreds of thousands in just half a month?

Her daughter just liked to make her happy.

With a serious face, Xu Ying asserted, "Really, Mom, and this trip, I noticed a lot of people started setting up stalls outside.

I feel like policies might change, and soon everyone will be able to do business. Moreover, I heard they are going to start distributing land.

Each person will get one mu, and whatever is grown on this land will belong to personal property, and there won’t be any need to hand it over anymore."

Mrs. Xu touched her daughter’s forehead, which wasn’t hot.

Why was she starting to talk nonsense?

"The land distribution your daughter is talking about is true! Director Gu has also started mentioning this to me, although some leaders still disagree.

But I believe it’s only a matter of time; everyone is used to living a life of idleness because they feel that the crops from the fields are not their own, fostering a lazy mindset.

Both Director Gu and I believe that once the land is in everyone’s own hands, you’ll see if those people won’t work themselves to the bone.

And those who usually like to loaf around, let’s see how they’ll continue to do so then."
