Chapter 248: Chapter 247: It’s Not That I Won’t Listen
The next morning, just like usual, the Han Family Brothers came to pick her up for school. Following her mother’s advice, Zhen Yu asked Han Mingyue to help her take a day off.
Her cold hadn’t really improved, it was just that she no longer had a fever. Just after finishing breakfast and not feeling like studying, Zhen Yu turned on the television.
Early in the morning, naturally, there weren’t any interesting programs. Zhen Yu randomly chose a channel just for the sake of having some noise.
She then moved her pillow and blanket to the big Kang bed and lay there with her eyes closed, listening to the news.
As she listened, sleepiness crept back in. Just as Zhen Yu decided to ignore everything and go back to sleep, a very familiar melody suddenly came from the TV.
"Ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~ah~"
This string of ’ahs’ instantly cleared away all of Zhen Yu’s sleepiness! She sat up abruptly from the Kang.
Then she saw a group of Qing Soldiers riding horses across the grassland on the TV...
If Zhen Yu still wasn’t quite sure at that moment, then when she heard the lyrics of the theme song, her guess was instantly confirmed.
"When mountains no longer have edges, when rivers no longer flow..."
This is ’Princess Huanzhu’! But now it’s 1997! Everyone from her previous life knows that the first part of Princess Huanzhu was aired in 1998!
Here we go again! Another hot drama that premiered early!
Initially, Zhen Yu felt helpless, the kind of helplessness you feel when you have the exam answers beforehand, but then realize the questions have been changed when you enter the exam hall.
Then her adrenaline surged, and she suddenly got excited!
With all these unknown changes in this life, she would feel more accomplished after achieving success through her efforts, and she could have a life experience different from her previous life!
And not knowing the future might actually be a good thing for her!
If she encounters situations like with the Fu Family in the future, she doesn’t need to feel conflicted in her conscience! After all, she doesn’t know if things will actually happen!
The theme song quickly ended, and Zhen Yu hurriedly focused on watching the TV. Reliving a classic was also a nice experience.
The drama episodes during the day were generally replays of episodes aired the previous night; seeing that it was only the third episode, Zhen Yu realized instantly.
No wonder her classmates had never discussed this drama, nor had Mrs. Zhen mentioned it. It’s because the broadcast time was too short, and the popularity hadn’t picked up yet!
——
After two episodes of Princess Huanzhu ended, the TV programs became boring again, and Zhen Yu, no longer sleepy, got up to self-study today’s lessons.
Her day off was fairly fulfilling, undisturbed, which was just too good!
Zhen Yu thought Fu Yu had gone to school, but little did she know, like her, he also took a day off due to a cold, except he still had a fever and was lying on the Kang at home...
In the evening, when Mrs. Zhen came home, she was much calmer.
She gently asked her daughter how her day went, and upon understanding that nothing serious happened to Zhen Yu, she told her to go to school as usual the next day.
The next morning, Zhen Yu learned through Bai Xue that Fu Yu was sick; it was Bai Xue who brought it up herself.
If she had not spoken up, nobody would have thought to ask.
Upon hearing this, Zhen Yu suddenly had a wicked thought; if only he could be sick for half a month, then she would have some peace before the Tomb-Sweeping Festival! Moreover, she wouldn’t have to travel with him for their residential trip!
This thought was only fleeting, and then Zhen Yu felt a bit guilty...
After all, Fu Yu was just annoying, he didn’t have any sleazy intentions; compared to the man from her previous life who harassed her relentlessly, the issues created by Fu Yu were just child’s play!
The incident on Saturday was also unintentional, so hoping he would be sick for half a month seemed a bit mean.
Anyway, she would definitely recover from her cold sooner than him, and with her agility, avoiding his attempts to pull her along would be easy.
Besides, there were so many other people traveling together! He wouldn’t dare to be too outrageous.
"Just you know... a toad on the foot, it doesn’t bite people just annoys them..."
Thank goodness, just half a month more to endure, having something to look forward to makes it better!
Just stick it out for this half month! With mornings and evenings spent playing ’hide and seek’ with him, Zhen Yu could be doing something better!
——
Fu Yu took three days of sick leave in a row. It wasn’t until the day of the spring equinox that he waited at the front door, beaming as he followed Zhen Yu and the Han Family Brothers to school.
Zhen Yu tolerated him for two days, and then the weekend arrived.
Early Saturday morning, after breakfast, Zhen Yu followed Mrs. Zhen out of the house.
Regardless of whether Fu Yu jumped over the wall or not, his constant yelling from atop the wall made it impossible for Zhen Yu to stay at home!
So, she decisively decided to leave early and return late during the weekend and hide at the Han Family’s house to avoid him!
This decision was wise; after eating his meal, Fu Yu just waited and waited!
He waited until Mrs. Fu went out far enough visiting neighbors, then he immediately climbed up the wall!
First, he shouted, then he jumped.
This time Grandpa Fu stopped him, after all, just last weekend Second Fu had cursed someone’s mother and daughter terribly! Only a week had passed, it wasn’t good to stir up trouble again!
But Fu Yu, he wouldn’t listen!
After jumping over the wall, he acted just like last Saturday: peering through windows and shouting, but he made a fuss for a long time and no one paid attention to him.
Of course no one paid attention, because the Zhen Family wasn’t home! This time, really, there was no one!
His cold had just recovered, and now he had been out in the cold for a long while! When he was finally too tired and thought of jumping back home, he realized that the long bench on the Zhen Family’s side was gone, and the tree had been chopped...
"Grandpa! Grandpa! Grandpa..."
Fu Yu shouted for more than five minutes before he managed to call the hearing-impaired Grandpa Fu out of the house. After much struggle, Fu Yu finally managed to climb back over the wall to his own home.
However, the long bench of the Fu Family remained stuck at the Zhen Family’s place...
——
In the evening, Mrs. Zhen went to the Han Family to pick up her daughter, and mother and daughter returned home together.
Zhen Yu wasn’t sure if she was overthinking it, but from the moment she saw her mother, she felt that she was preoccupied with something and was distracted.
It was getting dark, Mrs. Zhen was preoccupied, and Zhen Yu constantly observed her mother. Thus, no one noticed an extra bench in the yard.
After dinner, having cleaned up, Mrs. Zhen indeed called Zhen Yu to stop.
"Xiao Yu, sit here! Mom heard something today that I guess will spread throughout the town in no time!"
Zhen Yu was extremely surprised, what could spread across the town in just a few days? Laha Town wasn’t very big, but it wasn’t small either!
Seeing her daughter’s expression, Mrs. Zhen knew what she was thinking. "Hey! Good news stays within doors, bad news travels a thousand miles! This will probably make the newspapers by the day after tomorrow! Laha Town is going to be famous now!"
"Mom! What exactly happened?" Zhen Yu was so strung along by her mother’s hints that she was getting impatient!
"It’s the town’s middle school! A thief got into the girls’ dormitory!"
"Just a thief, that’s pretty normal, isn’t it?"
In the past, cases of vendors making sales pitches and stealing things happened in various schools, and there wasn’t a university dorm that hasn’t lost a few things over time.
Then, all school dorms got security gates...
That’s hardly a big issue!
