With Chen Hong’s advice, Mu Danian imdiately had an idea; he needed to teach that brat a lesson.
After chatting, Mu Danian processed the chicken he had stolen from ho and had a feast with Chen Hong before returning ho.
It was already noon, just the right ti for lunch.
Mu Danian hadn’t done any work the whole morning, ca back ho and started eating, and his eating manner was quite ugly, inevitably getting scolded by Old Mrs. Mu.
"Fifth, you’re treating my words like wind beside your ears, aren’t you? At such a critical ti, you dare to slack off; why don’t you just die?"
These venomous words spewed from Old Mrs. Mu’s mouth.
Mu Danian didn’t mind much, it’s not like he hadn’t been scolded before; being scolded, so what? It wouldn’t make him lose a piece of flesh.
"Fifth, tell , where exactly did you go?" Mr. Mu was furious; everyone had been working hard all morning, except for Fifth, who went off to slack sowhere.
It caused the Old Mu Family to have no one to carry the burden, so he had to do it himself.
In the entire Er Gui Village, whose sons don’t do the heavy work while the fathers give instructions? Only he, the old man, had to do such heavy labor.
"No need for to talk about you, Fifth brother, you’re already grown up without a wife; do you know why you don’t have a wife? Because you’re lazy! If you were as hardworking as our dad, you would have married several concubines, not to ntion a wife."
Mu Zhenzhen didn’t mind stirring the pot, she mixed in from the start, getting involved in Old Mu Family’s business; her manner was exactly like Old Mrs. Mu, utterly annoying.
But there was no choice, Old Mrs. Mu liked Mu Zhenzhen, even Zhenzhen’s shit was better than others’.
"Zhenzhen’s right, Fifth, don’t eat today, don’t waste food!"
This whole family was noisy, and even eating Mu Shuangshuang felt a little like laughing.
Back then, before the family split, Old Mrs. Mu’s attention was all on her, but now the family split, plus Zhenzhen ca, Old Mrs. Mu’s attention turned away from her.
But Mu Shuangshuang hadn’t enjoyed it for long before Mu Danian pointed at her nose in shock.
"Mom, I know, the chicken thief must be a family thief, it’s probably this brat."
Yu Si Niang stood up right away. "Fifth brother, don’t speak nonsense, how’s our Shuang a thief, and our family also lost sothing."
"Mom, listen, the third branch lost sothing too, isn’t that absurd?"
Mu Danian behaved like a clown, his words were utterly disgusting.
Mu Shuangshuang waited coldly for him to finish speaking before reacting.
"Uncle, accusing soone requires evidence, just because you say I stole the chicken, does that an I stole it? Then I could say that the wealthier family in town lost sothing and bla it on you too, did you do that?"
"Also, it’s a fact that our third branch lost sothing, why do you claim we didn’t lose anything?"
"I can’t argue with you, brat; anyway, your third branch stole it; hadn’t you brought beef back yesterday, maybe you sold the chicken to exchange for beef, otherwise where would your third branch get money?"
Mu Danian continued to throw dirt on Mu Shuangshuang, speaking more enthusiastically.
"Where did our third branch get money, we earned it; does Uncle think our third branch can’t earn money? Or do you think, after splitting, our third branch deserves to starve?"
Inside the house, the tension was mounting, Old Mrs. Mu didn’t believe Mu Shuangshuang stole the chicken, as she thought the third branch didn’t have the guts.
But when Mu Danian talked about the third branch not handing over the beef they bought, she was unhappy.
"Okay then, I was wondering why our family’s chicken disappeared so early, turned out it was you all, even turning my chicken into beef, I’ll go search the third branch now; if the evidence is clear, let’s see how you continue to deny it."
Old Mrs. Mu rolled up her sleeves with the intent to search the third branch.
Mr. Mu was watching nearby, when it ca ti to take charge, he didn’t step in.
Mu Shuangshuang sneered, directly blocking Mrs. Mu’s path.
"Grandma, our third branch already split, how we earn and how much has nothing to do with you, right?"
"Moreover, we had a contract back then, all the silver Shuangshuang earned is hers."
The people of Old Mu Family were unsure of exactly how much Mu Shuangshuang had earned or the thod used, but seeing the third branch suddenly having money and eating beef, they all wanted a bite.
Unfortunately, they underestimated Mu Shuangshuang.
Ever since she openly didn’t do work, she had thought about her path ahead; if Old Mrs. Mu directly stopped the third branch from eating at the Mu Family, she could have her mother and younger siblings stop working, since the stove was already set.
"You..." Old Mrs. Mu was furious and looked for a stick to beat Mu Shuangshuang, Yu Si Niang got frightened, grabbed Mu Shuangshuang and wanted to run.
"Shuangshuang, let’s go quickly, your grandma is going to hit people." Yu Si Niang couldn’t move Shuangshuang and got anxious, her words were trembling.
Escape wasn’t a solution, sooner or later, the Old Mu Family will know she is earning money now, and they would co for it; might as well let them know now, show them she’s not soone easy to bully.
"Mom, please go back first, so things need to be clarified; Grandpa, you’ve seen these things, won’t you intervene?
Didn’t we initially have a contract, and Uncle saw us having beef at dinner, while the family’s chicken was stolen later, could such reasoning beco the evidence of blaming ?"
Mu Shuangshuang was sowhat aggressive, yet Mr. Mu still said nothing.
Since this was the case, Mu Shuangshuang wasn’t polite anymore; she stepped out and shouted towards the outside of the yard.
"Co and see, Old Mu Family is bullying the third branch, my grandparents are being unreasonable, co watch the excitent..."
With one shout from Mu Shuangshuang, several villagers who liked excitent ca out, each moving towards Old Mu Family’s direction, Mr. Mu couldn’t remain seated any longer.
"Alright, everyone stop talking; I know about this matter, Shuangshuang didn’t steal the chicken, as for... the silver earned by the third branch, that belongs to the third branch."
Mr. Mu was originally pressed by Mu Dade’s expenses, hearing from Mu Danian that the third branch had money, for a mont he even considered having the third branch produce the money, hence allowing the commotion.
But now, Shuang started calling outsiders; the Old Mu Family couldn’t lose face!
"With Grandpa’s words, I’m relieved, don’t worry Grandpa, once Shuang’s work with snatching is done, our third branch won’t eat here, we’ll eat in our own kitchen."
(I’m stocking up on Chapters recently, those hoping for more updates can look forward, the upcoming plot is even more exciting~)
