Reborn as a Tough Army Wife-Chapter 15 Green Tea. Surface

In her previous life, Fang Pingying felt merely annoyed when she found out that Xu He and Luo Zhiyong were together, as she didn't have deep feelings for him, and after all, she was already divorced from Luo Zhiyong. No matter who married him, it would be the same.

Now she realized that it wasn't that Xu He and Luo Zhiyong developed feelings over time; Xu He's family had set their sights on Luo Zhiyong when they were still in Luojia Village.

If it hadn't been for Luo Zhiyong's leg injury, with Xu He's tactics, the person marrying him would definitely have been Xu He.

After figuring out everything, Fang Pingying felt indifferent.

She couldn't blame others entirely for the outcome in her previous life; she was too foolish, inviting the wolf into the house. She had to carry most of the responsibility. This life, however, she would not allow herself to make the same mistakes.

So, she followed Luo Zhiyong and the others until they reached Zhou Yunmei and Xu He's group. Gave them a cold glance, saw that Xu He and her group were all focused on Luo Zhiyong, then scoffed with a mocking chuckle without a word.

Zhou Yun seemed to be chatting with Duan Fenghua and the others while waiting for them to return. Seeing Luo Zhiyong, she quickly approached, "Zhiyong, what did the doctor in the county say about your leg? Can it be treated? How much will it cost? And why didn't you come back yesterday?"

Luo Zhiyong frowned slightly at Zhou Yun, "Mom, we'll talk about it when we get home. We've just returned."

Zhou Yun pouted, wanting to ask more, but her expression darkened upon seeing the basin and some living supplies that Fang Pingying was carrying from yesterday's shopping, then she didn't ask further and simply called for Luo Zhiyong and the others to go home.

However, Duan Fenghua and her daughter, standing aside, seemed to be looking at Luo Zhiyong with slight tension, as if they were very keen to know the answers to the questions Zhou Yun had just asked.

Seeing that Luo Zhiyong and the others did not answer and were talking about going home, Duan Fenghua's expression tightened, she hurriedly reached out to grab Luo Zhiyong, and asked, "Zhiyong, the injury on your leg looks very serious, what exactly did the doctor in the county say? Can it be cured?"

Having been away for many years, Luo Zhiyong typically just greeted villagers and wasn't familiar with them, plus his temperament was reserved, and he wasn't fond of the closeness of strangers.

Especially Duan Fenghua, he didn't recall having much interaction with her, it wasn't proper to be this familiar.

Seeing the hand Duan Fenghua placed on his arm, he looked up at her with a trace of impatience in his eyes.

Not just Luo Zhiyong, even Luo Dashan and Luo Honglan and others were puzzled, they thought Duan Fenghua's reaction was a bit strange. Even if a fellow villager was concerned about Luo Zhiyong's injury, they would at most come by to ask. Duan Fenghua's eagerness seemed excessive.

Duan Fenghua, realizing how her actions seemed abrupt by the looks on the faces of the Luo Family, immediately let go, and gave Luo Zhiyong an embarrassed smile,

"I mean, Zhiyong, you're a soldier, and getting your leg treated sooner means you can return to the troops earlier. A soldier must always be thinking about their duties in the troops, right?"

"Heh, Aunt Fenghua really cares about our Zhiyong. You even think of these things. It's good that you get along with my mom, otherwise someone seeing how anxious you are might think you're pleading with our Zhiyong for something," said Fang Pingying, then deliberately snickered a few times as if making a jest.

But because Duan Fenghua had her own agenda, being so straightforwardly called out by Fang Pingying made her feel even more awkward, stammering, "This..."

Fang Pingying looked at Duan Fenghua, raising her eyebrows with indifference, and then glanced at Xu He standing behind her.

Xu He was still as composed as she was in the previous life. Hearing what Fang Pingying said, she showed no reaction. When Fang Pingying looked toward her, Xu He even gave Fang Pingying a faint smile, looking pure and innocent.

What a green tea bitch!

Fang Pingying didn't make a fuss either; with a faint smile, she said to the mother and daughter, "Alright, Aunt, thanks for your concern. Do come and visit when you have time. We will be heading back now; we haven't had breakfast yet." After saying this, Fang Pingying, without paying further attention to Duan Fenghua and her daughter, helped Luo Zhiyong back home.

Upon arriving home, as soon as Luo Honglan remembered that Fang Pingying had just mentioned they hadn't eaten breakfast, she immediately went to the kitchen to cook some noodles for them.

Fang Pingying supported Luo Zhiyong to sit on a wooden chair in the courtyard, preparing to help Luo Honglan in the kitchen with the noodles, when Zhou Yunmei followed and called out to her, "Yingzi, since you didn't come back yesterday, where did you stay in the county?"

"At the hospital, Zhiyong's leg..."

Before Fang Pingying could finish her sentence, Zhou Yunmei blurted out loudly, "What, you stayed in the hospital? I heard that hospitals in the county are extremely expensive. Only rich people can afford to stay there. You both stayed there; didn't that mean you spent all the money I gave you?"

"Mom, do you think we wanted to stay in the hospital or what? The doctor said Zhiyong's leg needed to be observed in the hospital, and only out of necessity did we have to stay."

Fang Pingying rolled her eyes and continued, "Besides, if we didn't stay at the hospital, we would have to find a hotel, and we couldn't just spend the night outside, could we?"

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yunmei actually spoke with conviction, "Spending the night outside is no big deal. In the past, when your dad and I went to the county, if we had nowhere to stay at night, we would always spend the night at the county's train station. It doesn't cost anything, and there's a place to sleep. It saves quite a bit of money in just one night."

Indeed, at this time, the train station was a good place to spend the night, no money needed, with a roof overhead. In her previous life, Fang Pingying had spent several nights at a train station when she had no other choice.

It's no wonder Zhou Yunmei thought of this place, but it also revealed that in Zhou Yunmei's heart, money was far more important than her son's leg. Upon returning home, she had not asked about Luo Zhiyong's leg once, just kept on asking about the money.

Thinking of how Luo Zhiyong kept saying he wanted to send more money home to lessen his parents' burden, she felt a chill.

Looking indifferent, Fang Pingying said to Zhou Yunmei, "This expense cannot be saved, Zhiyong's leg is not convenient for movement."

"Then what about you? Your leg isn't lame, is it?" Zhou Yunmei retorted without thinking.

After speaking, seeing Fang Pingying's look, Zhou Yunmei immediately knew she had gone too far with her words, she quickly waved her hands, "Forget it, forget it, what's spent is spent; no use talking about it now. How much did you two have left over from yesterday? Hand the money over to me."

Fang Pingying glanced at her, while helping Luo Honglan make noodles, she plainly stated, "Mom, the money you gave us yesterday was originally borrowed by Zhiyong for his leg treatment. Besides, even if it wasn't all used up, we would eventually have to pay it back. Moreover, we have to go to the county again next month. It's better to keep the money with Zhiyong for now, to avoid having to take money from you again."

Fang Pingying originally wanted to say the money should stay with her, but considering that they were newly married, she didn't want to cause endless arguments at home and become a laughingstock.

Saying the money was with Luo Zhiyong, she actually wanted to see how Zhiyong would feel if Zhou Yunmei went to ask him for the money.

Fang Pingying wasn't trying to stir up trouble between them, but she thought that Zhiyong was too indulgent with certain things at home because he felt that he owed his family, which was undue.
