Because they were leaving early tomorrow morning, the two of them still had to pack their luggage, so they didn’t talk much and returned home.

As soon as Yu Bing entered, he realized that there were only Mrs. Yu and Yu Pan in the living room. The atmosphere was a little off. Mrs. Yu leaned against the sofa and crossed her arms in front of her chest with anger in her eyes.

“Yu Bing, you slut! I was wondering why you were so proactive in volunteering to build the village. So you only took the initiative to mention it because you knew that Yao Nian would also go! To think that I even gave you so much money and stamps since I was afraid that you would suffer. Take out half of all the stamps and leave them at home. You can only bring five yuan with you!” Mrs. Yu sat up straight and pointed at Yu Bing.

Yu Bing looked at Yu Pan, who was sitting beside Mrs. Yu with her legs crossed while munching on melon seeds, as if she was watching a good show.

She understood that Yu Pan must have started to sow discord again. Although Yu Pan was just over 20 years old, she was famous for being a gossipy woman in the neighborhood.

Yu Bing had died once before, so how could she be afraid of Mrs. Yu’s threat? He said helplessly, “Since Mom thinks that my motive for going to the countryside is not pure, I won’t go. I’ll take out the money and food stamps later.”

Mrs. Yu froze, and Yu Pan, who was eating melon seeds, also stopped.

In fact, this was indeed Yu Pan’s doing. She just felt that if Yu Bing left home, there would be no one for her to bully anymore. She just made up some lies in front of her mother in order to see Yu Bing being scolded.

Mrs. Yu wanted to use this as an excuse to deduct more money and stamps.

Unfortunately, what they didn’t know was that the Yu Bing in front of them was no longer the person they were familiar with. She wasn’t someone who the Yu family could make suffer and mercilessly exploit. She was no longer someone who silently endured and didn’t dare to resist.

Mrs. Yu slammed the table and roared, “You wretched girl! Are you threatening me?!”

Yu Bing walked to the armchair and sat down. She held her chest and said with an uncomfortable expression, “Mom, I haven’t gone to the countryside yet. It’s not too late for me to give up the spot now. I suddenly feel a little pain in my chest.”

Yu Pan widened her eyes. From the looks of it, the situation was a little out of control. She was afraid that something unexpected would happen. Yu Wu definitely wouldn’t go. In the end, it would be over for her if she went.

Yu Pan hurriedly held Mrs. Yu’s arm and whispered into her ear, “Mom, she might not be able to return for the rest of her life. She’s a sickly person. Our family won’t have to pay for her food anymore. No matter what, these stamps and money are worth it!”

Mrs. Yu was also scheming. In this era, it was indeed difficult to find a job through connections. Her son had yet to find a job. This time, she could send off this sickly person with an excuse. Not only could she fill the spot, but this could also save them money. It was indeed a profitable deal.

“Yu Bing, don’t think that we can’t control you. If you dare to do anything embarrassing, I’ll break your legs! I’ll sever all ties with you!” Mrs. Yu threatened.

In the past, Yu Bing would panic and be afraid that her parents would be angry. However, at this moment, she only felt calm and didn’t want to pretend to be polite with them anymore. She only said calmly, “I’m setting off tomorrow. I’ll pack my things first.”

With that, she returned to her room, leaving the two of them looking at each other.

The next morning, just after seven o’clock, Yu Bing took two large bags containing clothes, a net bag containing a hot water bottle, a basin, a lunch box, and some food that she had fought for from her mother in the morning. She set off alone on the journey to build the village.

The train station.

The train station was bustling. They were all parents who were sending their children off. The Yu family was still angry about what happened last night and morning, so they didn’t send her off.

Yu Bing squeezed into the car with all his might and looked for her seat. She saw that Jiang Chun, who wasn’t far away, had already seen her. Afraid that Jiang Chun wouldn’t see her, Yu Bing stood up and waved her hands vigorously.

Yu Bing smiled for the first time today. “Chun Chun!”

“Come, give me the heavy one.” Jiang Chun took a few steps forward and brought the clothes to the seat. She turned around and took the net before placing it under the seat. She pulled Yu Bing to sit in the inner seat.
