Chapter 290: Chapter 290: The Farmer and the Snake Reminder
In early October, Yue Jiandong brought back news.
He confirmed multiple times that there was no odd smell left in both houses.
Lin Chunju formally announced that they would move in two days.
In fact, aside from clothes, there was not much luggage. Most of it had been left in the old house, and they would buy new cooking utensils and the like once they got to the new house.
These two days were mainly for bidding farewell.
After all, having lived in Daye Village for so long, whether they bore gratitude or grudges, leaving was still going to be sentimental.
Quite a few villagers brought gifts to visit, keeping Lin Chunju incredibly busy.
Yue Qingqing and Yue Xingxing also took this opportunity to act like older sisters in front of Yue Xiaohu.
Telling him to study hard.
Yue Xiaohu’s face twisted like a bitter melon, resigned to bow his head and take the lecture.
Butcher Zhang also visited with his two children, carrying several pounds of pork in his hands.
Zhang Caidie followed demurely behind her father and brother. Her eyes, however, were cast towards Yue Qingqing and Yue Xingxing.
Yue Xingxing frowned and turned her face away.
Seeing Zhang Qianhai, who was currently exchanging pleasantries with grandmother with a simple smile on his face, Yue Qingqing decided to make one last effort.
"Xiaohu, come here. Sister will tell you a story."
Yue Xiaohu scurried over, dragging a stool to sit down.
Listening to a story was always better than getting lectured.
"Once upon a time, there was a farmer..."
Yue Qingqing began to tell the story of the farmer and the snake, as well as the story of Master Dongguo.
Yue Xiaohu looked up, "Sister Qingqing, grandma has already told these stories."
Yue Xingxing pressed Yue Xiaohu back onto the stool, "If it’s been told, consider it a review. Just listen obediently."
Yue Xiaohu hung his head dejectedly. This was a story, not a study session. Why was there a need to review it?
Zhang Qianhai and his son, of course, also heard Yue Qingqing’s voice.
Far from being moved, the father and son showed the exact same simple smiles.
"Caidie, you should go and play with them too."
Zhang Caidie smiled sweetly, looking up, "Alright."
After she turned her back, however, her expression changed instantly.
She wasn’t fooled; she knew Yue Qingqing was deliberately teaching her family a lesson.
She had always disliked the Yue Family, and the incidents that followed only deepened her hatred for the Yue children.
Zhang Caidie walked over, causing Yue Xiaohu and Yue Xingxing to feel uncomfortable.
One excused themselves to read inside; the other said they were going to play in the backyard. Both children left.
Yue Qingqing still stood in place, not even glancing at Zhang Caidie.
Zhang Caidie grew even more resentful. Her gaze shifted to the stone mill nearby.
Yue Qingqing wasn’t far from the stone mill, and from the height, if she were to fall over there, she would definitely hit her head.
Zhang Caidie let out a cry, pretending to stagger as if about to fall.
Her hands shoved fiercely towards Yue Qingqing.
Unexpectedly, before she could touch her, Yue Qingqing stepped aside as if she had eyes behind her head.
Zhang Caidie missed and clumsily fell to the ground herself.
"Caidie!" The Zhang father and son, hearing the commotion, rushed over to help.
Zhang Xingjie dusted off his sister.
"How did you suddenly fall, did it hurt?"
Tears welled up in Zhang Caidie’s eyes, "I’m fine; I was just careless, it has nothing to do with Qingqing."
Yue Qingqing looked at her in surprise, "Of course, didn’t you fall by yourself?"
Zhang Caidie kept her head down and remained silent. The Zhang father and son, thinking she had taken a hard fall, were instantly distressed.
After saying a quick goodbye to Lin Chunju, they hurried off, intending to take Zhang Caidie home for treatment.
Watching their retreating figures, Yue Qingqing helplessly shook her head.
Some things are just destiny.
Perhaps this was a calamity fated for the Zhang father and son.
Lin Chunju noticed something and couldn’t help but feel emotional, "She’s not that old, but why is she so scheming, like a sieve full of holes?"
Yue Qingqing withdrew her gaze, thinking it over. After all, she just needed to take care of her own family members.
She couldn’t manage, nor should she interfere with, the affairs of other families.
