Unlimited Resources: Raising a Minister with a Space Supermarket-Chapter 403 - 376: Have Your Mother Come Pick Me Up

Sun Manyu didn’t know what she had said wrong. Holding her painful face from being hit, she loudly retorted to Mrs. Sun, "Aunt, what did I say wrong? Everyone knows Yu Xiaolian was picked up by you and Uncle. Why can’t it be said?"

Even if it can’t be said, she had already mentioned it, at least her mother-in-law and her husband knew it.

Sun Manyu didn’t understand why Mrs. Sun was hiding this, what was the use?

Mrs. Sun was trembling with anger at Sun Manyu, and she wouldn’t explain the reason to her. Pointing angrily at Sun Manyu, she said, "What nonsense are you spouting? Xiaolian is my biological daughter, she is!"

Li Wenyuan hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the still wanting to retort Sun Manyu, somewhat roughly dragging her behind him, then apologized to Mrs. Sun full of regret, promising he wouldn’t let Sun Manyu spread Yu Xiaolian’s background everywhere.

Mrs. Sun had Madam Gao see off Sun Manyu and Li Wenyuan and let Madam Gao convey to Sun Manyu not to come again.

As soon as Sun Manyu stepped out of the Yu Family’s door, she complained to Li Wenyuan in grievance, "My cousin is capable, I guess my aunt is afraid that her biological parents would come to take her back, then she wouldn’t have anyone to earn money for her."

Li Wenyuan said nothing, got into their own carriage waiting outside the door, and shortly after, Sun Manyu also got on.

Only after getting into the carriage did Li Wenyuan caution Sun Manyu, "No matter the reason, since your aunt doesn’t want others to know about this, you should keep your mouth shut and not spread it around, understood?"

Seeing Li Wenyuan’s serious expression, Sun Manyu dared not be vague and obediently nodded her head.

Yet, she still felt puzzled and curious inside, could it be that Yu Xiaolian’s biological parents had come?

Speaking of, Yu Xiaolian is so smart, she must have inherited it from her biological parents. Who knows what her biological parents do?

Sun Manyu ran through all possible scenarios in her mind, then the carriage suddenly jolted, causing her, engrossed in her thoughts, to fall over from a small bench and land right on Li Wenyuan who was reading.

The paper tore with a ripping sound, and Li Wenyuan felt a pang in his heart.

With a smack, Sun Manyu was slapped on the face again.

"You hit me?" Tears immediately welled up in Sun Manyu’s eyes, she lifted her head in disbelief and stared at Li Wenyuan.

Since marrying Li Wenyuan, although he’s been disdainful in words, he had never laid a hand on her.

Sometimes, her mother-in-law would call her over to the main house to abide by rules to avoid disturbing Li Wenyuan’s studies, for this, Li Wenyuan had even argued with his own mother for her.

Sun Manyu was very satisfied with Li Wenyuan, her gentle and polite husband, even considering him no less than Su Jingchen at times.

"All this for these few worthless sheets of paper given by Yu Xiaolian, you hit me?

You hit me, huh? Well hit me, I dare you to hit me!" Sun Manyu went mad, snatching the papers from Li Wenyuan’s hands, tearing all of them to shreds with all her might.

Li Wenyuan flew into a rage, his eyes bloodshot, grabbed Sun Manyu by the neck, "What good does it do you if I don’t pass as a scholar, huh?"

Li Wenyuan’s fierce appearance scared Sun Manyu immensely, but although she wanted to beg for mercy, she couldn’t, only able to struggle by kicking her legs.

Just as Sun Manyu felt she was about to be strangled to death by Li Wenyuan, the coachman stopped the carriage, lifted the curtain, and pulled away the emotionally out-of-control Li Wenyuan.

Sucking in mouthfuls of fresh air, Sun Manyu felt great relief from a narrow escape, filled with dread.

"Cousin?" Just then, Sun Manjin and Sun Manyin, bringing a delivery team from Luocheng back to Taohua Village, happened to be traveling on this road.

Upon hearing Sun Manjin’s voice, it was as if Sun Manyu had seen a lifeline, "Manjin, Manyin, save me, Li Wenyuan’s trying to kill me!"

Sun Manjin and Sun Manyin dismounted at once, spotting the shocking marks on Sun Manyu’s neck.

"You despicable scoundrel, how dare you bully my cousin, Manyin, let’s beat him up!" Sun Manjin and Sun Manyin rushed forward, dragging Li Wenyuan off the carriage.

Although the Li Family’s coachman desperately protected his master, Sun Manjin and Sun Manyin had a team of men with them. Those workers responsible for escorting Sun Manjin’s goods also came forward to help when they saw their boss in conflict, easily pinning down the loyal coachman.

Sun Manjin and Sun Manyin pounded Li Wenyuan until his face was bruised and swollen.

Seeing Li Wenyuan lying on the ground groaning in pain, Sun Manyu looked pleased, thinking, let’s see if you dare hit me again in the future, humph, I too have my maternal family to rely on, not someone you can bully at will.

Sun Manyu felt relieved, venting three years’ worth of repressed anger, though the Li Family had never physically assaulted her, her mother-in-law often used upholding rules as an excuse to torment her.

Her sisters-in-law were even more snobby, constantly mocking or rolling their eyes at her. For three years, Sun Manyu had never been involved in the Li Family’s business; she didn’t even know the annual income of her own household.

"That’s enough, Manyin, teach him a lesson but don’t really injure him!" At this point, seeing Li Wenyuan lying on the ground with a bruised face and bleeding at the corners of his mouth, Sun Manjin felt they had been a bit too heavy-handed.

Manyin withdrew his hands, "Will you dare hit Sister Manyu again in the future? You call yourself a scholar, yet you hit women, you’ve got no class!"

Sun Manyu laughed, "Lucky to have run into you two, otherwise I would have been strangled to death by him."

"Sister Manyu, come home with us, let the Li Family bring gifts to apologize and fetch you, otherwise going back would definitely put you at a disadvantage," Sun Manyin said, stepping forward to pull Sun Manyu, seating her on the delivery cart.

Sitting on the cart, Sun Manyu looked at the struggling-to-rise Li Wenyuan, "I want your mother to personally come get me; otherwise, I won’t go back!"

Li Wenyuan wiped the blood from his mouth, giving Sun Manyu an inscrutable look, "Don’t worry, my mother and I will surely come personally."

Sun Manyu didn’t catch the undertone in Li Wenyuan’s words, thinking instead that Li Wenyuan was scared after the beating. Gleefully, she sat on the cart and followed Sun Manjin and Sun Manyin back to Taohua Village.

All the way, Sun Manyu kept thanking Sun Manjin and Sun Manyin, saying with them standing up for her to deter Li Wenyuan, she believed he wouldn’t dare lay hands on her so readily in the future.

Overjoyed on the way, as soon as Sun Manyu got home, she grew aggrieved, throwing herself into Sun Dalin’s wife’s arms and burst into tears.

Sun Dalin’s wife had been in a bad mood recently. Some time ago, she and Qi Dalian had a conflict, and Yu Changhe sided with his younger brother-in-law’s wife, dismissing her from the workshop.
