The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Role Strikes Back

C27

Aunt Li didn't hear it, but Ma Yan did. She rolled her eyes at Zhou Yu and said, "If you want rice, go buy it from somewhere else."

    Zhou Yu still acted as if she didn't see Ma Yan and called out again, "Aunt Li!"

    Ma Yan was infuriated by Zhou Yu's arrogant attitude. She stood up and wanted to tell Zhou Yu to get out, but she was suddenly hit on the back of her head.

    It was Uncle Ma who came. He glared at Ma Yan and said, "Do your homework! You have only written one page since school ended. I don't know what you will achieve in the future!"

    Ma Yan felt that not only had she been slapped for no reason, but she also received the slap in front of Zhou Yu. Moreover, Zhou Yu had just acted as if she didn't see her, but now she suddenly looked at her with sympathy, which made her feel ashamed and angry.

    She also glared at Uncle Ma and said angrily, "I am just like you because I am useless! I have lived most of my life just unloading and delivering goods! I have done some lowly jobs!"

    "How can you talk like that!" Uncle Ma was so angry that he wanted to hit Ma Yan again.

    Ma Yan even looked up as if she wanted Uncle Ma to hit her, "Hit me, hit me! If you have the guts, just beat me to death!"

    After she finished speaking, she felt a little scared again. Her father was very strong and he beat her severely last time. The swelling on her face hadn't gone down for three days.

    But in front of Zhou Yu, she didn't want to beg for mercy.

    Aunt Li heard the noise and trotted over. She pulled away Uncle Ma's hand and said anxiously, "Why are you hitting my daughter again? What's going on?!"

    Uncle Ma angrily shook off Aunt Li's hand and said, "Ask her what she just said!"

    Then he looked at Zhou Yu, looking apologetic, "I'm sorry, I made you laugh. Two bags of rice, right? I'll send them to you in the evening."

    Zhou Yu didn't want to watch the fun anymore, so she told Uncle Ma all the things she needed, such as oil and spices, and paid the money before leaving.

    Before leaving, she looked at Ma Yan again, then turned back with a sigh in her heart.

    How could Uncle Ma and Aunt Li, two such gentle and kind people, give birth to a child like Ma Yan who has a violent and bad temper?

    She touched her belly fearfully, thinking that she must never spoil her child in the future.

    When she returned home after buying food, Gu Ye was already home. She felt guilty and retracted her hand holding the vegetables, then walked home carefully.

    After all, which good person would buy so many vegetables every day for no reason?

    But as soon as she closed the door, Gu Ye came out. He saw Zhou Yu carrying a large bag and walked over with her long legs. He took the bag from Zhou Yu and asked, "Why are you buying so many vegetables again?"

    Zhou Yu's heart paused, but he still found out. When she was thinking about how to explain, Gu Ye whispered again: "I know that the vegetables are cheaper in the afternoon, but you don't need to buy so much."

    He originally wanted to say that it would be better to eat more meat.

    But when he caught a glimpse of Zhou Yu's pair of almond-shaped eyes looking at him, which looked like autumn water, Gu Ye's heart suddenly started beating uncontrollably and he couldn't utter a word.
