Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 1092 - 1002: Those Years 12

During this meal, Zhou Meijuan ate with her head down, devouring half a rabbit without raising her head. Normally quite delicate and fragile, at mealtime, she showed no signs of weakness.

After Zhou Meijuan had her fill, she put down her bowl and chopsticks, puffed up her bloated belly as if pregnant, and went back to her room. Aunt Qi watched Zhou Meijuan’s back coldly and began tidying the table with Wen Shuangshuang, washing dishes and chopsticks.

As soon as the meal was over, Dang Shuzhen arrived at Aunt Qi’s small courtyard with large and small bags of things. She came to express her gratitude to Wen Shuangshuang.

Both Dang Shuzhen and Dang Aiguo were orphans, so they longed for familial affection. The two shared a particularly good relationship, and since Dang Dalong was their only child, they were heartbroken when he almost died today, almost ready to follow him to the grave.

Later, the child was saved by Wen Shuangshuang. The couple was busy taking him to the health clinic and hadn’t had time to thank Wen Shuangshuang for saving their son’s life.

Now that their son’s condition had improved, Dang Aiguo and Dang Shuzhen quickly came to thank his lifesaver.

Because the child was still at the health clinic, Dang Shuzhen only spoke a few words, left the things, and departed. Wen Shuangshuang looked at the items Dang Shuzhen had brought.

Three pieces of meat, estimated to weigh about five or six jins, and a large piece of cotton fabric, enough to make three or four outfits for someone of Wen Shuangshuang’s size.

Additionally, there was a huge jug of oil, about ten jins, and many eggs, sugar cubes, pastries, and ox-tongue pancakes.

Wen Shuangshuang took two pastries and ox-tongue pancakes for Qi Juan and handed over the oil, eggs, and meat to Aunt Qi, then packed up the remaining items.

Soon after Dang Shuzhen left, another person came with many things, loaded with large and small bags, to thank Wen Shuangshuang.

This time, the visitor was none other than Fang Damei, the wife of branch secretary Wang Baoguo, who came to thank Wen Shuangshuang for saving her husband’s life.

It turned out that the person Wen Shuangshuang saved from almost drowning due to his foot being entangled by weeds was indeed the branch secretary Wang Baoguo. At that moment, Wang Baoguo was still lying in the health clinic receiving treatment, and his wife came to express their gratitude.

Fang Damei sincerely thanked Wen Shuangshuang for saving her husband, bringing a generous gift including a stack of numerous grain tickets, seven or eight large banknotes, a basket full of eggs, and several big chunks of meat, estimated at about ten jins.

Fang Damei repeatedly expressed her gratitude to Wen Shuangshuang. Their family’s extra status in the village relied on her husband being the branch secretary. If something happened to Wang Baoguo, Fang Damei couldn’t imagine what would become of their home or how they would continue living.

As she left, Fang Damei tightly held Wen Shuangshuang’s hand, "Comrade Xiao Wen, remember to come to us with anything you need. Both my husband and I will help if we can."

With a smile, Wen Shuangshuang responded, "I only happened to save him in passing; it’s nothing. Besides, the branch secretary nearly drowned while trying to save others, which was a noble act. It was only right for me to save him."

After exchanging a few polite words, Fang Damei, who was still worried about her husband, hurriedly excused herself. Wen Shuangshuang put away the grain tickets and banknotes, along with non-edible items and snacks, leaving the eggs and meat for Aunt Qi to handle.

With so many goods suddenly at hand, Aunt Qi was all smiles. She knew Wen Shuangshuang was generous and usually indifferent to such food, likely letting her and her daughter partake in it.

Aunt Qi didn’t crave the food, but felt for her daughter. Her greatest joy was seeing her daughter have the opportunity to eat well and grow healthy.

Thanks to Wen Shuangshuang’s generosity before, her daughter had grown much paler and plumper. Now with so much food available openly, Aunt Qi expected her daughter wouldn’t miss out.

Thus, Aunt Qi treated Wen Shuangshuang particularly well. If Wen Shuangshuang hadn’t insisted on working, Aunt Qi might have just kept her at home, doing everything herself.

Unlike Wen Shuangshuang, Aunt Qi was increasingly annoyed by Zhou Meijuan’s antics. Zhou Meijuan was not only fussy and overly dramatic but also especially lazy.

She never tidied up the house, never helped with any chores, and shamelessly ate when there was good food, never offering thanks, nor even washing her own bowl. This made her a constant irritation to Aunt Qi.

Now that there was even more food at home, Aunt Qi knew the shameless Zhou Meijuan would undoubtedly join in for meals. However, Aunt Qi was unwilling to let her share.

Besides disliking Zhou Meijuan, Aunt Qi also had personal motives. Without Zhou Meijuan taking a share, her daughter could have more to eat.

Increasingly agitated, Aunt Qi approached team leader Lin Cheng’an, requesting Zhou Meijuan be moved out. Since the house was Aunt Qi’s, her unwillingness to keep Zhou Meijuan was akin to a landlord evicting a tenant.

Despite Lin Cheng’an’s reluctance to cause further disruption, Aunt Qi’s persistence as the homeowner left him with no options. Eventually, Lin Cheng’an had to make several rounds near the educated youth center and barely managed to clear a small storage room for Zhou Meijuan.

Upon learning she had to move out, Zhou Meijuan was unhappy. Living at Aunt Qi’s was very comfortable—rooms were cleaned, and she didn’t have to work, watching the influx of good food. Zhou Meijuan was simply unwilling to leave.

She initially pitifully cried to Aunt Qi, but Aunt Qi remained unmoved. Seeing Aunt Qi was determined to evict her, Zhou Meijuan clung to her luggage in protest, unwilling to depart.

Aunt Qi’s temperament was fierce. Enraged, she forcibly took Zhou Meijuan’s luggage and tossed it out of her courtyard, dragging the weak Zhou Meijuan out of her home.

Clutching her luggage, Zhou Meijuan sat at Aunt Qi’s doorstep, causing a scene and refusing to leave.

Zhou Meijuan had overheard team leader Lin Cheng’an saying there were no free houses at the youth center. If she went, she would have to stay in a cramped, dark storage room, incomparable to the neat and clean home maintained by Aunt Qi. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Thus, Zhou Meijuan sat on the ground, making a scene, unwilling to leave. Delicate as she seemed, Zhou Meijuan knew how to be truly infuriating.

She kept knocking on Aunt Qi’s door, pleading with Aunt Qi not to be so cruel as to evict her. She claimed to have nowhere else to go, earnestly promising to serve Aunt Qi diligently if only she would take her in.

Such behavior made it seem like Aunt Qi was incredibly cruel to evict someone from her home. Aunt Qi was almost driven mad by Zhou Meijuan’s shameless antics.
