Chapter 244: Eat It Or Apologize

ad a set amount of food he ate at meals, ate too much.The steward was quite pleased, wiping a tear from the corner of his eye."It's been a long time since I've seen the King eat with such an appetite....Fang Jinxiu never considered herself a completely good person. She could be soft-hearted and help others, but only if she found them agreeable.

Like someone like Chunlan who deliberately picks fights and acts above her station, she doesn't need to give her any face.

Chun Lan was stunned when Fang Jinxiu asked her to pick up the bamboo shoots on the ground and eat them.

After reacting, he was furious, “What did you say Fang Jinshu, you’re just a peasant woman from this remote village. Why are you ordering me around!”

"Besides, it was your niece who insulted us first. You not only didn't have her apologize to us, but you even made me pick up the bamboo shoots from the ground and eat them"

"Heh heh, have your Spring and Autumn dream!"

Chulan kept trying to get Xiaoyue and Jinyu to come to her side.

"Xiaoyue, Jinyu, haven't you seen through Fang Jinshu's true colors yet She just gave you some food, and now you're groveling at her feet, even abandoning your dignity"

Zong Bai saw that his sister-in-law had done a good deed but was still being wronged. It was truly unbearable, so he sarcastically chided her.

"Wow, you still know idioms So you've read books."

He turned his head and pretended to be puzzled, asking Dean Qin, "Teacher, what do books write about these days Are they specifically teaching people how to be ungrateful and sow discord"

Dr. Qin actually cooperated with Zong Bai's childish behavior, shaking his head and saying,

"No, only teaching people how to be reasonable and know right from wrong."

Zong Bai nodded. "I told you, now that people who have read books have all become like this, it's not because the book teaches them this way, but because some people are born to belittle themselves."

Chunlan is not a fool like Qiujing, how could she not hear that Zongbai was sarcastically insulting her for being ungrateful

"You! You're at least an educated man, how can you bully a woman like this!"

"I bullied a woman I didn't say anything untrue, did I"

"If it weren't for my elder brother and sister-in-law saving you, you would still be in the bandit's den waiting to die right now."

"If it weren't for my sister-in-law's kindness in keeping you here for a meal, she could have sent you straight to the village head Wang's place to arrange accommodation directly."

I guarantee you won't even find a decent leaf of vegetables in this village. You're truly blissfully ignorant of your good fortune.

They thought that such food could still be eaten whenever they wanted

Besides, you've been acting shady since you walked in. I didn't like you from the start. If you don't want to eat, get lost! I'm not happy about saving you. Tomorrow morning, I'll send you back to that den of thieves.

"Those bandits probably haven't all been taken away by the authorities yet. Perhaps you might still get to see them!"

Even though Chunlan was usually strong-willed, the moment she heard the words "bandits," her face paled instantly.

"Since you're scared, just be quiet and obedient. Don't forget who rescued you and is feeding you."

Some things, when said out loud, are just unpleasant to hear, but that's the truth.

Fang Jinshu and the people from the second branch of the Zong family never expected that saving someone would require them to be repaid. They said that signing the bond was also Chunlan's own idea at first, wanting to stay behind.

Now the one who regrets is her. She's the one who can't find any pleasure when others are eating.

Fang Jinshu did not stop Zong Bai from saying these words. Sometimes, it was indeed necessary to let these girls see the situation clearly and understand that other people's kindness was not free, unlimited, or entitled.

Chunlan's whole body trembled. At this moment, Jin Yu and Xiaoyue suddenly spoke.

"We just want to stay by Elder Sister Jinxiu's side, we won't go anywhere. Chunlan, if you choose to live in the village, then you go ahead on your own. Don't drag us along."

Jin Yu was extremely disgusted by Chunlan's action of throwing bamboo shoots just now. She absolutely didn't want to live with such a girl.

Chulan pointed at them, "Good, good, you are willing to become servants and submit to others! Suit yourselves!"

She pulled on Qiujing, "Let's go!"

Just as she was about to step over the threshold, Fang Jinshu coldly called out, “Wait!”

"Who let you leave like this"

"I told you to pick up the bamboo shoots on the ground and eat them, didn't you hear me"

"It's fine if you don't care about things in our house, but I absolutely won't allow anyone to mistreat them."

"You can leave if you want, but either pick up the bamboo shoots and eat them, or apologize to Jin Yu."the carriage and left, she didn't believe Jiang Chuang's two legs could catch up to the four wheels of the carriage."Okay, second brother, be careful yourself! See you at home!"Zong Bai nodded until h...
