Chapter 60: Your Mother-in-law Is Fighting with Others!
Yang Guihua seemed to suddenly hit the sore spot of the Bai family and Yun Qinghuan, and her words became more and more unpleasant.
“You…” Jiang Wenshuo’s anger rose.
Not understanding why she spoke so rudely, Jiang Wenshuo quickly went to check on Liu Yuzhi.
Liu Yuzhi’s smile faded, and she waved her hand at Jiang Wenshuo, indicating that she would handle it herself. Then, she slowly sat up from the ground, looked at Yang Guihua, and raised her hand directly.
Yang Guihua shrank back in fear, “What’s wrong? Did I hit a nerve and make you so angry that you want to hit someone?”
Liu Yuzhi sneered, “I’m just adjusting my clothes. If you don’t do anything wrong, you don’t have to worry about getting caught. Are you afraid I’ll hit you?”
Lowering her raised hand, she calmly straightened out the hem of her clothes, “So you know your words were out of line, afraid I’ll hit you?”
Yang Guihua retorted stubbornly, “How did I speak out of line? I can’t reason with unreasonable people like you.”
“Tsk!” Liu Yuzhi wasn’t going to let her off easily. She walked directly to Yang Guihua’s mother-in-law. Yang Guihua’s mother-in-law also couldn’t stand seeing others do well. When her own daughter-in-law spoke ill of Yun Qinghuan earlier, she didn’t say a word, but instead watched with great interest.
Now seeing Liu Yuzhi approaching, she became somewhat embarrassed, “Yuzhi, my daughter-in-law is just like that, she doesn’t have a filter, easily offending people. But what she says is based on what she hears from others. If your daughter-in-law didn’t do those things, why would people spread rumors? Don’t you agree?
“I suggest you quickly find a daughter-in-law for your son. I heard that Xia Tiejun at the village entrance recently lost his wife. They have two children, and he’s looking for a wife to take care of them. Their family conditions are decent. Although your daughter-in-law is no longer young, the dowry she’ll receive will certainly be considerable. It’s a perfect match, a widow for a widower.
“Plus, you’ll earn some money. Your daughter-in-law won’t be far away, she can come back to visit you and your grandson from time to time. Once your daughter-in-law is married, and your son doesn’t live in the same courtyard as you anymore, there won’t be so much gossip in the village.”
“Pah!” Liu Yuzhi was furious, “You heartless person! You dare to suggest anyone to me. How did Xia Tiejun’s wife die? Everyone knows. She was beaten to death by him, and she was still in her postpartum period. How pitiful! Who would willingly push their daughter into such a fiery pit?”
Yang Guihua’s mother-in-law argued cunningly, “But she’s not your daughter!”
“Yun Qinghuan is like my own daughter, you heartless woman. Why don’t you suggest marrying yourself off? Although you’re a bit older, but didn’t you say it’s to take care of the two children, without having to bear any yourself? I’m sure Xia Tiejun wouldn’t mind your age for childbearing. Plus, you can earn some money for your son. How convenient!”
“Pfft!”
The people around burst into laughter.
“Yeah, Aunt Wang, you should marry over there!”
Aunt Wang was Yang Guihua’s mother-in-law, and people in the village liked to call her Aunt Wang.
Aunt Wang’s face turned green with anger. She stood up and rushed towards Liu Yuzhi, “You bitch, your mouth is foul. I’ll tear it apart!”
Howling, she attempted to attack Liu Yuzhi.
Liu Yuzhi wasn’t one to mess with either. While she had tempered her temper now, not wanting to cause trouble, she had never lost a fight with the villagers when she was younger.
Yang Guihua’s insults towards Yun Qinghuan angered her, but she didn’t want to start a fight with someone younger. The villagers would talk. However, she could fight Yang Guihua’s mother-in-law. Who knows if those words were fed to Yang Guihua by Aunt Wang.
Moreover, Aunt Wang was smiling as Yang Guihua spoke. She clearly wasn’t a good person.
If she fought Aunt Wang today, tomorrow Aunt Wang would take out her anger on her daughter-in-law, Yang Guihua. All in all, it would be avenging Qinghuan. In an instant, Liu Yuzhi fought even more fiercely.
She fought with skill, immediately grabbing Aunt Wang’s hair and scratching her face with her other hand. Instantly, a large bloodstain appeared, flowing down Aunt Wang’s face.
“Ahhh!” Aunt Wang went mad with rage and immediately grabbed Liu Yuzhi’s hair. The two of them instantly started fighting.
However, Aunt Wang had lost the initiative and was always at a disadvantage.
Everything happened too quickly, and the people around hadn’t even reacted yet.
Yang Guihua was the first to react. Her face turned pale. Although she couldn’t stand seeing others doing well, she wasn’t too foolish. She knew that if her mother-in-law was bullied too badly, she wouldn’t have an easy time at home either. So, she hurried over to help her mother-in-law fight Liu Yuzhi.
Jiang Wenshu’s eyebrows raised when she saw this. Seeing it was two against one, with Liu Yuzhi about to be overwhelmed, she quickly stepped in to help. “Yang Guihua, what are you doing? Why are you getting involved in the affairs of your elders?”
She grabbed Yang Guihua and pulled her back firmly.
Jiang Wenshu didn’t fight, but just by holding onto Yang Guihua, she was helping Liu Yuzhi.
The people around quickly responded to Jiang Wenshu’s call and stepped forward to separate Aunt Wang and Liu Yuzhi.
“What’s wrong with you two? You were just talking, why are you suddenly fighting?”
“You’re both grandmothers now, making a scene like this is embarrassing. Stop fighting.”
The onlookers instantly became peacemakers and managed to separate the two.
“Liu Yuzhi, you wicked woman, you deserve to go hungry till now. Your daughter-in-law has been pretending for the past few days, hasn’t she? It’s only been a few days, and she’s already slacking off!”
“One old widow and one young widow, I say it’s because your Bai family has done too many wicked deeds, and now it’s karma catching up!”
Aunt Wang’s face was heavily scratched by Liu Yuzhi, and her body was covered in bruises. Since becoming a mother-in-law, she had never suffered such a grievance before. In an instant, she went around biting people like a mad dog.
Yun Qinghuan was delivering food to Liu Yuzhi. Because she had been delayed by harvesting locust flowers today, and seeing everyone else returning with empty lunch boxes, she was starting to feel anxious.
She was worried that Liu Yuzhi might be getting impatient, especially after working hard all morning, mostly doing physical labor. Her stomach must be empty by now.
As she was halfway there, a woman carrying a lunchbox from the field saw her and hurried over with shining eyes. “Yun Qinghuan, hurry up and go see, your mother-in-law got into a fight with someone!”
“What?”
Yun Qinghuan hadn’t reacted yet when the woman continued, “Don’t ask too many questions, just go quickly. I saw they were fighting fiercely, and there’s blood!”
Terrified, Yun Qinghuan immediately started running. Halfway there, she saw a big stick on the ground. She picked it up and continued running, displaying a somewhat fierce demeanor.
Meanwhile, bystanders who were initially unaware of what was happening caught wind of the gossip and quickly followed behind her.
And so, a group of people marched towards the upper field in a grand procession.
Before they even arrived, Yun Qinghuan saw a dense crowd of people surrounding the area, making it impossible to see what was happening inside.
