Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 121

Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Li Hongmei’s Husband from Her Past Life

Li Hongmei rolled her eyes, and Chen Chunhua did the same where she couldn’t be seen.

Lin Chuxia saw everything clearly but said nothing.

Looking at the shopping net next to Li Hongmei and Li Dongmei, filled with quite some purchases, it seemed they now had money to spend in the city?

In her past life, it was the same—every time she and Li Guangyuan made a bit of money, these two younger sisters-in-law would find every way to pinch pennies from them and once even stole their money.

After she found out, she didn’t have an immediate outburst but had Li Guangyuan deposit their money in a term account, only to tell him the next day that the cash set aside for restocking was gone.

The clients had been arranged in advance, and failure to restock on time not only affected their business but also their relations with clients.

Just that once, they lost a considerable sum.

Having been terrified of poverty since childhood, even earning money didn’t encourage Li Guangyuan to spend, let alone how he felt about losing money.

Li Guangyuan investigated thoroughly without her needing to say anything and in the end traced it back to the two younger sisters-in-law.

Li Guangyuan flew into a rage. Despite Mrs. Li’s protection, it was to no avail; he taught the two a lesson, and they were well-behaved for quite some time afterward.

It’s unknown where Li Hongmei and Li Dongmei got the money to spend now; Lin Jiayi wasn’t that generous.

Daqing Mountain Village and Xiaoqingshan Village are adjacent; Li Hongmei was only a year younger than Lin Chuxia, and they had met before.

Worried about being recognized, Lin Chuxia didn’t go out but just watched through the glass as the two ate a bowl of pickles with eight buns and two bowls of porridge, finishing with a bowl of free plain boiled water from the restaurant.

When leaving, they didn’t go empty-handed, taking five meat-filled buns to go.

After a satisfying meal, Li Hongmei with her meat buns and Li Dongmei with her shopping net were ready to leave.

Li Hongmei was gesturing and talking about something with Li Dongmei just as they reached the entrance, they bumped into a man entering.

Li Hongmei’s meat bun was knocked out of her grip.

"Ouch! What kind of person are you? Are you blind?"

The man was not old, with tanned skin and a buzz cut, he appeared somewhat simple and sincere.

Seeing he had bumped into someone, he quickly apologized, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to..."

"Just saying sorry and that’s it? You knocked my buns onto the ground; these are freshly bought meat buns. How can we eat them after they’ve fallen? Compensate us!"

The man was just about to bend down to pick up the meat buns off the ground; it was awkward whether to pick them or not.

"Comrade, these buns aren’t dirty..."

The meat buns were in a plastic bag and even after falling to the ground, they hadn’t been touched by any dirt through the bag.

Li Hongmei didn’t even look, "Do you expect us to eat something that fell on the ground? Let me tell you, you must compensate us with new ones today, or I’ll accuse you of hooliganism—bumping into a lady in broad daylight, have you no shame?"

Zhang Guilan put down what she was doing, "I’ll go out and have a look."

The confrontation outside continued, especially after hearing Li Hongmei’s words, the man’s face turned beet red with embarrassment.
