Retired Villainess Transmigrates into a Cannon Fodder

The Lucky Star Control Corporation in the 70s (43)

Yang Yuelan did not want to follow mainly because she had never gone farther than the town. Moreover, she was unwell and was afraid of troubling them.

Yin Xu understood her and walked around in front of her. Yang Yuelan hurriedly stretched out her hand to help him, scolding him at the same time, “Why are you so careless? You only recovered a bit.”

Yin Xu smiled and said, “Mom, didn’t you notice that I’m getting better quickly? My recovery is much better than what the doctor said. I know my own legs, and they will both be healed soon.”

Yang Yuelan exclaimed in surprise: “Are you really going to recover? God willing, what a blessing from God indeed!”

“It’s not God, it’s Xiangxiang.” Yin Xu led Yang Yuelan and sat down together. He continued, “Mom, think about it. Since Xiangxiang married me, haven’t there been a lot of good happenings in our family? She’s the reincarnation of a lucky star. She’s leading us to change for the better.”

Yang Yuelan was stunned. “But… didn’t Xiangxiang roll down the hillside and almost get burned to death?”

Yin Xu nodded. “Yeah, on such a steep hill, others would have surely died if they rolled down. She just had scratches on her face and suffered some skin trauma. How lucky was that? Her house caught fire, and the doctor said she could never wake up, but she woke up despite the odds and got well. What kind of luck is that?”

His arguments took Yang Yuelan aback. But after careful consideration, what he said was true. Everything was completely different when viewed from another angle.

Yin Xu hugged her by the shoulders and added, “Mom, look, are you feeling better now? You worked for several hours yesterday and went to bed so late. In the past, you would have lay down for a day before recovering, right? Now, look how refreshed you look. You could even argue with people just now. Isn’t it great for us to go together as a family? You can still watch over us and take care of us.”

Yang Yuelan suddenly realized, “I’ve been wondering why I feel quite different. My body is so much better!” She stood up and walked around the room, clapping her hands and saying, “Xiangxiang may truly be blessed. I must come along. Your legs are not yet healed. Let Xiangxiang and Xiao Wen study hard, while I take care of you. Those two girls are young, and I have to watch over them as well. Then… What should we do with these things at home? When will we come back?”

“We won’t come back. Believe your son and daughter. We will let you live a good life in the future, we’re not coming back.” Yin Xu looked around and said, “I’ll ask the Captain if his family want these things in the house, then give them to him. Leave the house here and give the land to the Captain as a gratitude for all the help he gave us. I’ll take care of this, Mom. Just pack light.”

Yin Xu’s legs were much better, making moving much more convenient. After speaking, he got ready to go to the captain.

Seeing him coming out, Chu Xiang asked him, “Have you convinced her?”

Yin Xu laughed, “With good reason, it’s easy to talk her into it. I have you to thank, Little Lucky Star.”

“Huh?” Chu Xiang looked puzzled. What did it have to do with her?

“We have a Little Lucky Star at home, so everything goes smoothly. I’m going to see the Captain. How about coming with me, Little Lucky Star, and catching a couple of fish for dinner on our way back?”

“Sounds good. Let’s roast a few more sparrows.”

Inside the room, Yin Qiuwen watched the two of them walk out of the door talking and laughing. They even took a basket. Apparently, they wouldn’t be back for a while. She couldn’t help saying to Yang Yuelan, “Mom, do you think Sister Xiang will become my sister-in-law for real in the future? I like her so much. I can’t imagine anyone else being my sister-in-law.”

Yang Yuelan smiled and said, “Who doesn’t like a good girl like Xiangxiang? Let’s fate dictate it. It’s our blessing for her to stay, and even if she doesn’t, she’ll always be part of our family. Study hard in the future, and don’t let Xiangxiang down after she took you through the hard work of reviewing.”

“Don’t worry, Mom, I will definitely not disappoint Sister Xiang.”

The Yin family’s wish to move out proceeded smoothly. The land was transferred to the son of the Captain at a low price, and they also agreed that they could take whatever they wished in the house. All they needed to do was to watch the house and sweep the dust occasionally.

Nothing could be kept secret in the village. While Chu Xiang was still in the mountains catching sparrows, the news spread. A lot of the villagres sighed, regretting not establishing a good relationship with them. Now it wasn’t their turn to benefit from this good thing.

The Chu family couldn’t sit still. They had only been after Chu Xiang’s honor before, and they didn’t think of getting any tangible benefits. But now the house, the fields, the furniture, and poultry were all real good stuff!

Grandma Chu took Li Yuezhen and Chu Lan’s mother to the door. Chu Xiang and Yin Xu were not at home, and Yang Yuelan and Yin Qiuwen ignored her, so she lay at the door and clamored, “Daughter-in-law, are you going to the capital with everyone? Look at how vindictive you are. What did my family do to you, so you don’t even recognize your in-laws? Even Chu Xiang, who has now become a college student, doesn’t want to recognize her parents…”

“Shut your stinky mouth!” Yang Yuelan walked out aggressively with a broom. “Stop relying on your seniority to take advantage of us. Do you think our Yin family is easy to bully? How dare you climb Xiangxiang! Who shamelessly drove Xiangxiang out of the house in the first place? At that time, Xiangxiang just came out of the hospital and couldn’t even stand up. How dare you, a black-hearted old woman, claim to be her elder? You’d better get yourself out of here. I won’t give you a blade of grass even if you cause a ruckus and roll about today!”

Yang Yuelan picked up the broom and charged to the door. The old lady and her daughters-in-law hurriedly hid back in embarrassment only to see a bunch of spectators around, laughing at them.
