70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 33: Yin Yang’s Thanks (Happy New Year)

Xu Mumu nodded and didn’t say much more; after all, Xu Minghui going to work was quite normal.

Tutoring a few kids, with new textbooks, Xu Mumu noticed that Xu Tao and Xu Jiaojiao were even more studious.

"Sis, let’s go train." Tiedan looked at Xu Mumu expectantly; he wanted to be as strong as Mumu.

"Only after you finish all your homework." Xu Mumu said calmly, knowing well that this child just didn’t want to do homework and was full of energy all day long.

"Just a little bit left, sis, we’ll be done soon." Xu Minglei’s eyes were also shining bright; he enjoyed training with his sister.

Currently, the plans Xu Mumu set for them were still relatively easy, as she was concerned about them getting injured. Once they adapted, the training intensity would gradually increase.

Not long after, Li Caixia returned and seeing all the things that Xu Mumu brought back, she was even more thrilled. In recent days, Xu Mumu had brought back so many things, she had accumulated quite a bit.

"My daughter has skills." Li Caixia gleefully hid the things away, except for a bit she left out, which was for the old couple, and when bringing it over, she would surely speak well of her daughter.

"Of course, she’s my offspring." Xu Hai said proudly.

"Our daughter takes after me, inheriting my good traits, knowing to bring all the good stuff home." Li Caixia said with a smile.

"Take these to mom and dad, and make sure to say good things about Mumu." Li Caixia handed the small bag to Xu Hai.

"Don’t worry, I know." Xu Hai rolled his eyes at his own wife, questioning if he’d ever been unreliable.

In the evening, Xu Mumu felt the loving gaze from her grandparents and silently glanced at her parents. She didn’t need to ask to guess what had happened – when her parents brought things to her grandparents, they must have praised her to the skies, which was their usual style.

It was precisely because of this that her grandparents showed a bit more affection towards the kids in the first household.

Under her grandparents’ loving gaze, they had dinner.

After dinner, with the sky still early, Xu Mumu was teaching the kids to read.

The courtyard door was knocked, and Sun Huiping went to open it.

"Yin Zhiqing, is something the matter?" Sun Huiping looked at Yin Yang with puzzlement, wondering why he had come to the house.

"Aunt Xu, I’m here to see Comrade Xu Mumu." Yin Yang came in with a gentle smile.

"Come in, Mumu, Yin Zhiqing is here to see you." Although a bit puzzled, Sun Huiping let Yin Yang in.

"Why are you here?" Xu Mumu was a bit surprised to see Yin Yang.

"To thank you, I appreciate your help earlier. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy to resolve." Yin Yang handed the basket in his hand to Xu Mumu.

"It’s nothing. Just helping out. Take these things back." Xu Mumu said helplessly, assuring it was just a small favor.

She’d already received plenty of items recently and felt a bit embarrassed with Yin Yang bringing more.

"Just take it. Next time you need anything, just say so." Yin Yang took out items from the basket – a small piece of meat and some candies.

"Oh my, bringing so much over! Yin Zhiqing, you’re too kind." Li Caixia quickly took the items from Xu Mumu’s hands.

"Mom." Xu Mumu helplessly looked at her mom, knowing those things wouldn’t come out once in Li Caixia’s hands.

"Keep it, it’s my token of appreciation. There’s some work at the commune, so I’ll head back first." Yin Yang smiled.

"Mumu, go see Yin Zhiqing out." Li Caixia said with a smile.

"Got it, mom." Xu Mumu nodded.

Walking out of the courtyard, Xu Mumu said to Yin Yang, "No need to bring things; anyone else would have helped too."

"Hmm, Comrade Xu is just as kind-hearted as others say." Yin Yang smiled at Xu Mumu. He didn’t know much about her before but learned quite a bit recently.

Thanks to Li Caixia spreading the word, Xu Mumu had a good reputation outside.

However, he didn’t fully trust the rumors. Xu Hai was lazy, Li Caixia liked taking advantage and gossiping. Except for Xu Mumu, Old Xu Family didn’t have a good reputation. Considering the environment she grew up in, expectations weren’t high.

At least from what he had seen, the Old Xu Family matched the rumors, yet this young girl Xu Mumu seemed a bit out of the ordinary.

"Is that so?" Xu Mumu raised an eyebrow slightly, as her intention back then was just not to make an enemy of Yin Yang.

Walking him out a bit, Xu Mumu returned.

Seeing Xu Mumu, Madam Chen was very pleased; her granddaughter was quite capable, even having Yin Zhiqing bring meat over. Although not much, it was still precious at this time, and the candies were great too.

Madam Chen kept half the candies to herself and left the rest for Li Caixia to give to the grandkids in the first household.

"Mom, let’s fry this meat with scallions tomorrow." Li Caixia said with bright eyes, as this meat was obtained through her daughter, making her feel more confident speaking to her mother-in-law.

"Alright, let’s have it for dinner tomorrow." Madam Chen agreed with a smile, as Xu Mumu would be at school for lunch and naturally, they’d wait for her to come home for dinner.

"Sure, let’s do as mom says." Li Caixia was extremely satisfied, giving a proud glance at her two envious sisters-in-law.

Sun Huiping didn’t have any ill intent, just some envy with no ulterior motives, since the books given today by Xu Mumu had made her very grateful, pondering on better relations with the first household.

Qian Ying pursed her lips, taking her two daughters back to their room.

"Mom, one day I’ll ensure you have meat to eat every day." Xu Xue said earnestly.

"Mom doesn’t care much for meat, just wants you two to be happy." Qian Ying said softly.

Xu Xue pursed her lips, feeling frustrated at her parents for their lack of progress but believed it would be better after splitting the family—soon now, with something brewing on the third uncle’s side.

Regarding the third household, she didn’t mind their upcoming troubles as long as it led to the family’s separation.

Xu Xue was now more focused on the first household, which had become a bit of a mystery to her.

"Mom, I want some candy." Xu Minglei clung to Li Caixia’s arm, acting cute. He had great admiration for his sister, wanting to have many people bring him gifts someday, which he considered true ability.
