"Got it, you stupid woman, hurry up and go!"
Mu Dazhong gritted his teeth, enduring the pain in his backside, and yelled at Mrs. Lin.
Although Mrs. Lin was sowhat unwilling, when she thought of the thing she was holding, she subconsciously sped up her pace.
Once she was out of the house, Mrs. Lin randomly found a spot and poured out the contents of the urine pot, no, the urine from the teapot.
Carrying the now-empty teapot, she hurried to the kitchen.
At this ti, there was only Mrs. Liu busy in the kitchen.
Mu Dade’s schoolmate had co over, and Mrs. Liu was assigned to the kitchen to prepare tea for them. After Mrs. Lin took the teapot, Mrs. Liu had been looking for it.
Seeing that Mr. Mu had already urged twice, if this ti, tea wasn’t served, the bla would fall heavily on Mrs. Liu!
The appearance of Mrs. Lin certainly solved Mrs. Liu’s biggest problem.
Mrs. Liu hurriedly approached Mrs. Lin and reached out to her, "Second sister-in-law, you’re finally here. I was just looking for the teapot in this kitchen!
Big brother’s classmates are here, and dad asked to prepare so tea for them. Hand the teapot, I need to boil so water!"
Without thinking, Mrs. Lin handed the teapot over to Mrs. Liu.
Eager to boil water, Mrs. Liu opened the teapot and started pouring cold water in, but didn’t notice there was sothing not fully poured out in the teapot, with a different color than the water.
After putting the teapot on the stove, Mrs. Liu left the kitchen for a while. During this ti, Mrs. Lin picked up the vinegar jar from the cupboard and quickly rushed out of the Mu Family’s kitchen.
By the ti she got ho, so vinegar had already spilled out.
But that didn’t affect what she was about to do next. Inside, Mu Dazhong was already lying on the bed.
With chicken feathers stuck to it, his red and swollen backside was exposed to the air.
"Daddy Gou Dan, are you feeling better?" Mrs. Lin asked Mu Dazhong, her gaze unconsciously falling on the plucked chicken that Mu Dazhong had placed on the table.
Looking at it like this, the chicken didn’t look dirty, and later she could just wash it by the river under the cover of night, and it could be roasted for dinner!
"You’re not the one who’s burnt, of course you’d say that, it hurts like hell! Did you bring the vinegar I asked for?" Mu Dazhong asked.
Mrs. Lin nodded quickly.
"Yes! I’ll find a cloth to wipe it!" Mrs. Lin said.
After a burn, using vinegar to clean it is a thod many people in Er Gui Village use.
Just like when there’s bleeding, grabbing a handful of ash from the stove, it’s a thod passed down for years.
"Help remove the chicken feathers from my backside first, it’s really prickly!"
"Alright!" Mrs. Lin listened to Mu Dazhong’s words, took two steps forward, extended her hand, and started plucking the chicken feathers from Mu Dazhong’s backside.
In doing so, she accidentally touched Mu Dazhong’s backside.
A wave of excruciating pain ca over him, and Mu Dazhong cried out in agony.
"Oww~ Oww~! You stupid woman, are you trying to kill !"
Clutching his backside, Mu Dazhong hopped around, no different from a monkey.
His face, from the pain, was flushed red.
Mrs. Lin was still making sarcastic comnts, "It’s just a touch on your bottom, it’s not like it’s the first ti, why scream so loud? Be careful not to draw people’s attention and let them know the wrongs we’ve done!"
Mu Dazhong quickly covered his mouth with his hand, his gaze toward Mrs. Lin still filled with resentnt.
Mu Dazhong vowed internally, when it’s ti to eat chicken, he surely won’t let Mrs. Lin have much.
So, Mrs. Lin continued cleaning the chicken feathers from Mu Dazhong’s backside.
On another front, under Mr. Mu’s urging, Mrs. Liu went to the kitchen to bring the newly boiled water kettle, along with the teacups, to the main hall.
In the main room, led by Mu Dade, the n were chatting and laughing.
Mrs. Liu poured water and made tea for them, and Mu Dade chid in: "This tea is the finest, I brought it back from the Capital. Give it a try!"
Their classmates were naturally happy, thinking Mu Dade hadn’t forgotten their camaraderie.
Little did they know, these teas were leftovers from the batch Mu Shuangshuang had brought ho last ti.
But they were carefully selected by Yu Liulang!
"Since it’s from the Capital, we must savor it properly!"
Each man held a cup of tea, first slling its aroma, then observing the color of the brewed tea.
One of them couldn’t resist and took a small sip.
After drinking, he furrowed his brow.
"What’s up? Is the tea not good?" Mu Dade noticed the man’s expression and couldn’t help but ask.
"No, the tea tastes good, but there’s sothing off about it, can’t quite put my finger on it!"
"Haha, that’s exactly why Dade brought this back. This taste is what the high-ranking officials and nobles in the Capital love the most!" Mrs. Jin chuckled, trying to smooth over the strange taste of the tea.
Not only that, she even raised a cup and took a sip, pretending to appreciate it.
"This tea, with a sweetness accompanied by a hint of astringency, stands out as top-notch compared to ordinary teas!"
Others, wanting to please Mu Dade and Mrs. Jin, quickly chid in.
"Great tea, indeed great tea!"
Just like that, each person drank a cup, and the whole pot of tea was finished clean.
...
At the Third Branch of the Mu Family, Mu Shuangshuang distributed so of the snacks she bought to the chatting won.
As they ate, inevitably, they gossiped about things Mu Shuangshuang might know.
Regarding marriage matters, they had already asked.
This ti, they inquired about Xia Guagua.
The other day, Gu Jiulian had made a bold claim in the village, saying she was going to the town to enjoy life with her daughter, acting like she wasn’t a laborer anymore, even saying her daughter had opened a restaurant.
Mu Shuangshuang reported honestly.
"Xia Guagua indeed opened a restaurant, and the location is right opposite my restaurant!" Mu Shuangshuang said.
"What? Opposite, won’t that steal your business?" one curious woman asked.
"I don’t know what to say about that! There’s definitely so impact, but everyone has the right to do business. I can’t dictate what others do or don’t do!"
Mu Shuangshuang’s calm and collected attitude won the favor of the village won.
"Shuang, there are good folks and bad folks! Good people will be blessed, bad people will face retribution!
Back then, when Xia Guagua beat Wang Fugui like that and even plotted to kill him, soone like that should face consequences.
As for why she can still open a restaurant now, I guess the heavens are leaving her for a while longer, waiting for her to commit all the misdeeds before dealing with her all at once!"
The won’s comforting words, though seemingly casual, had a semblance of reasoning.
Mu Shuangshuang felt better listening to them.
"Thank you, aunties. Tonight, stay for dinner, and I’ll make sothing delicious for you!" Mu Shuangshuang said.
The won, hearing Mu Shuangshuang’s offer, felt delighted in their hearts.
However, outwardly, they still politely declined Mu Shuangshuang’s offer.
