Chapter 211: “211 A Mouthful of Dog Shit (First Update)”Xiaofeng walked back holding her items, and the villagers, seeing that Xiaofeng was unwilling to give anything to Su Guisheng’s family, partly understood her decision. However, some shared Su Guisheng’s thoughts—that since they were all family, and the items were given by someone else, there was no harm in sharing just one piece. In the village, there is a saying: kindness should stay within the family, as it won’t do good to outsiders anyway. Even if Xiaofeng did decide to give Guisheng a valuable item, it would only benefit Guisheng and no one else. But some people thought that these were gifts from Su Dada meant for Xiaofeng. What was given to Xiaofeng was hers to do with as she pleased. If Xiaofeng wanted to keep them for herself, what could anyone else say? Xiaofeng’s attitude was clear; she plainly didn’t want to deal with it and preferred to keep everything for herself. With a will in her hand, even if she wanted to keep everything to herself, what could the others say? Thinking about this, they couldn’t reproach Xiaofeng. Seeing that there was no more drama to watch, everyone prepared to go back home to make dinner. Both families had been arguing for most of the afternoon here, and they had followed along, watching the spectacle for half a day. Ma Donghua watched Xiaofeng’s retreating back, and, without a thought, her body fell forward. It was as though she had accidentally tripped over something and then, off-balance, bumped into someone else. Ma Donghua let out a cry as her body fell forwards, reaching out to grab Xiaofeng’s clothes. Xiaofeng, as if she had eyes in the back of her head, deftly dodged to the side, avoiding the outstretched hands and stood aside. "Ow!" Ma Donghua, failing to catch Xiaofeng, grabbed He Ximei instead. He Ximei, being pulled, stumbled and fell backward. Ma Donghua, not standing properly, tumbled to the ground, while He Ximei, having been grabbed from behind, fell backward as well. He Ximei’s sturdy body landed squarely on Ma Donghua with a resounding thud. Ma Donghua’s situation was not much better; her face was down, mouth directly in contact with a pile of something soft and foul-smelling. Moreover, with He Ximei sitting directly on her back, Ma Donghua’s back nearly broke. Just as she was about to cry out, the soft stuff in front of her entered her mouth. She felt like vomiting— He Ximei stood up, "I say, Donghua, what’s the matter with you? Have you grown too fond of sitting at the entrance of my pigsty and don’t want to leave? Missed out on the golden teapot, and your soul has flown away, has it?" seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ma Donghua certainly couldn’t say that she intended to grab Xiaofeng and her attempt had failed, leaving her unable to straighten her aching back. Xiaofeng watched Ma Donghua on the ground with cold indifference. If Xiaoqi hadn’t alerted her in time to step aside, Ma Donghua’s attempt to take advantage would not have gone in vain. It’s one thing to take a small advantage, but when greed leads to other deviant intentions, it is no longer good. "Ha ha." Ma Donghua sat up, hoping for Su Guisheng to help her up, but as soon as she looked up, everyone seeing her state burst into laughter. The children nearby laughed even louder. "Ha ha, Aunt Donghua ate a mouthful of dog poop, ha ha. "Someone really took a ’dog eating shit’ fall, ha ha, how funny." The adults quickly covered their noses, "Guisheng, take your wife home. With a mouthful of dog poop, she won’t be able to eat for days." Disgusting, just thinking about it is truly revolting. Su Guisheng, seeing Ma Donghua’s state, hurried over, "You see, you can’t even walk without falling over." "People reap what they sow; wishing ill on others will only backfire," Xiaofeng glanced at Ma Donghua’s mouth and quickly looked away. Better not to watch; otherwise, she might lose her appetite for dinner. Ma Donghua, hearing Xiaofeng’s words and realizing she couldn’t protest, followed Su Guisheng home. Everyone else watched Ma Donghua’s departing figure and laughed heartily, "Ma Dongsheng has had quite the relationship with shit this year; first, the red envelope fell into the latrine, and now he’s got a mouthful of dog poop directly. I must ask her tomorrow how dog poop tastes. Is it fragrant?" "Probably didn’t get a share of the things and felt disgruntled," joked a villager, "The golden teapot slipped through her fingers; of course, she’s furious." "Guess she was so mad she blinded herself with rage, that’s why she took a spill." The voices of the villagers gradually faded away as each returned to their own home. Xiaofeng, holding her items, returned home and placed them on the dining table. He Ximei looked outside and closed the front door, "Xiaofeng, now everyone in the village knows you have treasures on you. By tomorrow, the news will certainly spread to nearby villages. You must hide these things well and not let anyone get their eyes on them." The other items might not interest people much, but what everyone is probably interested in is this gold teapot, made of real gold and silver. "Auntie, what’s going to come will come, and there’s no use being afraid now." The items had been discovered, whether hidden or not, people would think they were with her. "Do you have any plans?" Even if you sold them for cash, you wouldn’t find a buyer right away, right? Xiaofeng certainly had plans; she intended to put everything into her storage space, "Let’s just play it by ear. I truly didn’t expect Su Dada to leave everything to me." Who could have thought of this. The original owner hadn’t thought about it, nor had she. "Making you study hard was also Su Dada’s wish. He had wanted you to get into college, but your grades fell too sharply in high school, and you didn’t get in." If Xiaofeng had really been admitted to college, he would have definitely supported her through it. Xiaofeng remembered the formidable-looking, yet kind old man with a multitude of emotions, "Back then, I really didn’t understand much." If the original owner had really wanted to get in, it wouldn’t have been impossible with her grades. "You take the items to the city. No one in the village knows where we live in the city. It should be safe to keep them there." Guaizi also lacked any better ideas at the moment. "Okay." Of course, the good stuff must be taken along, "Only, I still haven’t figured out what these three items are." Xiaofeng looked curiously at the other three identical items, whose shape and substance she couldn’t make out. They looked like iron but weren’t quite iron, like spheres but not quite spheres; surely they couldn’t be land mines. "They look like land mines." He Ximei was somewhat trembling. "It can’t really be land mines, can it?" Guaizi’s voice quivered slightly. Thinking about Su Dada having been on the battlefield, the idea of them being actual land mines seemed almost plausible. "They’re not land mines." Xiaofeng shook her head, "They just resemble them somewhat; I can’t tell what they are right now. When we get the chance, we’ll have to find a professional to see if they can identify them?" "As long as they’re not land mines, that’s a relief." He Ximei breathed a sigh of relief, "I was thinking, if they really were three land mines, what would we do?" A single explosion might blow them to pieces, she supposed. ... After clearing the rubbish from her mouth, Ma Donghua felt like retching; she was just too unlucky. Even when settling down to sleep, she could still imagine the cool touch of that gold teapot, feeling exceptionally nice in the hand, "Guisheng, big brother’s family is really stingy. They got four items and couldn’t even share one with us. The more I think about it, the angrier I get." "My big brother is useless, too timid to decide for Xiaofeng. If he had been a bit more useful, thought more about his brother, and asked Xiaofeng to give one gold teapot to me, could she have refused?" In the end, it was always about the big brother being useless, not keeping his brother in his heart. "What else is there to say?" Ma Donghua agreed, "Xiaofeng won’t give, and big brother won’t ask. It’s really hard for us to get a share. What should we do?" "What can we do? Everyone heard, those were Su Dada’s items left for Xiaofeng." Who could have anticipated that letter? Su Dada was no ordinary person; his letter, if taken to the county, would be recognized. "I wasn’t really interested in the other items, just that gold teapot. If it were given to our family, would we have to worry about our two sons’ education expenses in the future?" Ma Donghua thought about it with a heavy heart. "Those are Xiaofeng’s dowry, if it really can’t be helped, we could introduce her to someone. I remember your aunt’s eldest grandson is still unmarried, why don’t you introduce him?" After all, Xiaofeng would have to get married someday. "She’s got a kid, my aunt would kill me if she found out." "Then what do you suggest we do?" Su Guisheng was out of ideas. Ma Donghua, in fact, had another plan in mind, "Let’s wait and see, I guess Xiaofeng definitely won’t keep the items at home, she must find another place to store them." Anyone with a brain would never keep them at home, not with everyone knowing, it was such a dangerous thing. "Don’t bring her up to me, look at her attitude today, she really thinks she’s something special because she got a few treasures, right? If she angers me, I’ll banish her from the village." Now she was living in her maternal home, and while living there, she ought to properly respect the family elders. As long as her own family supported her, others wouldn’t dare gossip.
