Chapter 5

Father Yang was pinched on the arm several times by Zhang Shufen, and he didn’t say anything. Zhang Shufang spoke up: “Since Tiantian did this, she should take the responsibility, just like Zhiguo. They can do the work in the village. Aunt Xiyue supports you in getting justice.”

He said sarcastically, “I don’t want some people to be so timid as to want their family to pay for it. The key is how much money do you earn from the family?”

Yang Tiantian retorted, “I do all the housework. I also make matchboxes every month and earn two yuan. Don’t I give it all to you? You really are so cruel. You watch me earn ten work points a day and you’re indifferent, right?”

“Ten work points would require even a strong laborer to work for a long time. I’m afraid I’d have to work from five in the morning to eight at night.”

“People should know their own limitations. I, Zhang Shufen, haven’t treated you as well as I have my children. I admit that. I also admit that you haven’t worn new clothes, but didn’t you spend all the two dollars you earned?”

“The food at home is pretty good, right? We can have meat three times a month. I make you work, but you’re not missing out on the meat.”

“Besides, the eldest and second sons got married and bought bicycles and sewing machines, but the family is still in debt. It’s only natural that you should pay off the debt. Who says you’re such a troublemaker?”

Zhang Shufen is not stupid. How can people work if they don’t eat well? Besides, she secretly cooked a special meal for herself. She would never be so stupid as to let Yang Tiantian see all the good things.

Zhang Shufen and Yang Fu’s twin sons got married this year. In order to avoid going to the countryside as educated youth, they married villagers who knew them well.

Zhang Dagui announced, “Alright, everyone, peace brings wealth. Let’s all take a step back. I have to say this: this is a warning. If someone kidnaps someone and takes their life again, I will not let them off lightly. I will definitely send them to a farm for reformation, where they’ll eat sweet potatoes every day.”

“Tomorrow, Yang Guihua, you will transfer the work to the Zhang family. Okay, no objection. Everyone, hurry up and get to work. Don’t delay the work in the fields.”

After everyone left, Li Hongmei excitedly took Zhang Xiyue’s arm and said, “Xiyue, this is great. Now you have a job, and Wenyue doesn’t have to go to the countryside anymore. Your competitors are gone, and your job is not stable.”

Zhang Xiyue smiled contentedly: “Mom, you are happy now, right? My sister and I both have jobs and work points. With so many work points, we can exchange them for a lot of food.”

In the book, the original owner, Xijie Zhang Wenyue, was unemployed, so the Zhang family was anxious to find a marriage for her. Unexpectedly, she was tricked into becoming a stepmother. She was tortured until she was thirty years old. Unable to bear the torture, she jumped into the river with her child and died.

Now that Zhang Wenyue’s fate has changed and she has gotten married and has a job, I believe things will get better and better.

Zhang Wenyue hugged Zhang Xiyue and said sincerely, “Thank you, Xiyue. Your love for you is not in vain.”

Zhang Wenyue has blamed herself since she was a child, thinking that she was the older sister and took up too much nutrients in the womb, which led to Zhang Xiyue’s poor health since childhood. From childhood to adulthood, she has always protected Zhang Xiyue. Of course, the Zhang family all dotes on this younger sister.

Zhang Xiyue smiled sweetly: “Sister, it’s my duty. You can’t let anyone else take this job. It’s great that you don’t have to go to the countryside.”

Father Zhang waved his hand and said, “Alright, get on my back. Dad will carry you to the village doctor, Old Li, to get some medicine. He’s a very good doctor.”

“Hongmei, kill a chicken. My daughter has lost so much blood, so you need to nourish her. Buy some meat and bones and make soup for her.”

Zhang Xiyue climbed onto Zhang Tieniu’s back and said, “I’m fine, don’t worry, just go to the village doctor and apply some medicine.” She felt that there was nothing serious with her body, she just needed to take good care of herself.

Today is Sunday, a holiday, so the Zhang family stays at home.

After applying the medicine and returning to the Zhang family, Zhang Xiyue was ordered to rest in bed. Li Hongmei said lovingly, “Xiyue, have a good rest. Mom will help you wash your clothes. You should have a good sleep, hehe…”

Li Hongmei hummed a song, looked at Zhang Xiyue who was sleeping soundly, tucked in the quilt for her and went out.

After everyone left, Zhang Xiyue opened her eyes wide. The sudden change of environment made her unable to sleep, so she started to have wild thoughts.

“System, the heroine Yang Tiantian has been reborn. Can I snatch her chance? Can I snatch the hero’s chance?” Those treasures must be snatched away.

What space, money, connections, tsk tsk…

[Of course you can, host. Yang Tiantian just slipped through the cracks in time, otherwise she wouldn’t have gotten the role of heroine. It’s an opportunity, so grab it if you want.]

“That’s great. What a pity! After Yang Tiantian was reborn two months ago, she already claimed the space as her master and even bound herself to a luck system. System, is there a way to change the owner of a space that has already claimed the master? And the male protagonist, Shen He, fell in love with the daughter of a leader in the army, and he wanted to cancel the engagement. Tsk tsk, another heartless man.”

The original owner liked Shen He and wanted to get a job in the city. Just because that bastard Shen He said he would only marry a wife who worked in the city, he forced the original owner to study hard.

Don’t think that Shen He is a good person. He is a snob and raises fish in the village. The original owner and Yang Tiantian are both fish in his pond. If Zhang Xiyue could live another life, she would not be willing to be a small cannon fodder supporting role.

It was clear that not long ago, she was suing that bitch Zhang Guoqing on Blue Star, but as soon as she left the court, she was pushed into the traffic by Zhang Guoqing. She didn’t show any mercy and pulled Zhang Guoqing with her. They should have both died in the car accident.

Half a year ago, she reached an agreement with Zhang Guoqing’s mother, her eldest aunt. Her eldest aunt had brain cancer and was already in the late stage. She had been treated for half a year and did not want to receive further treatment. She only had half a year to live. As long as she took good care of her eldest aunt, after she passed away, her eldest aunt would give her a legacy of 20 million.

Why not give it to Zhang Guoqing? That man is a gambler. My aunt divorced Zhang Guoqing’s father a long time ago and didn’t even want Zhang Guoqing.

Zhang Xiyue didn’t expect that she won the lawsuit but lost her life. This was too unlucky. The person was gone, but the money was not spent. Her aunt inherited 20 million, and she still had hundreds of millions of assets. Thinking of this, she felt heartbroken and pounded her chest hard, feeling heartbroken.

Her hundreds of millions of RMB, not just a few thousand or a few hundred yuan, were gone just like that…

“Tong, I’m dead, but I haven’t spent all my money yet. I’m heartbroken. Can’t you give me the money from my previous life? Is that bitch Zhang Guoqing dead?”

[No, host, your property has been taken over by the state.]

Zhang Guoqing and you died instantly. It was a tragic death, your bodies both trapped inside the wheel.

“Well, it seems that the system is not omnipotent.”

“Tong, how many points do I need to open the system mall? Space?”

[It costs 200 points. Host, are you sure you want to open it? You don’t have space, but you can store the system rewards in the system. Things from the outside can’t enter.]

“Open, open, open. I want to see what good things I can buy.”

【OK.】

Zhang Xiyue looked at the mall on the system panel and smiled from ear to ear. “Hahaha, that’s great! I can buy some fitness pills. I have a congenital deficiency. Will this help?”

“System, can’t I buy spirit stones to cultivate?”

[Strictly prohibited. You can’t buy elixirs from the immortal realm, but you can’t buy spirit stones to cultivate immortality. It will disrupt order and have a negative impact later. If you, the host, reveal a flaw, I will hold you accountable. If you are from the immortal realm and have your own spirit stones to cultivate immortality, it is fine…]

Zhang Xiyue curled her lips and said, “Okay, Tong, can I buy a fitness pill on credit? You see, I’m sick and it’s not convenient for me, right? They want a thousand points for a fitness pill. How cruel.”
