A group of people, full of montum, was heading towards the Old Mu Family.
But the Old Mu Family was in chaos at the mont, almost on the verge of exploding.
Mrs. Lin’s shout that Xiangxiang was dead completely touched Old Mrs. Mu’s bottom line.
She put down Mu Xiangxiang and angrily cursed Mrs. Lin with a piercing voice.
"Lin Xiaozao, you dog, how dare you curse Xiangxiang to die? Do you have any humanity left? Ungrateful wretch, why don’t you go and die yourself?"
A torrent of curses almost made the roof of the Old Mu Family’s house fly off.
Mu Shuangshuang quickly stopped Zhang Huai Shu and Mu Dashan, who were ready to rush into the central room.
"Dad, Fourth Uncle, let’s wait a bit. My grandma is furious right now, whoever approaches will die."
But since they were walking fast before, Mu Shuangshuang could now see what was happening in the central room.
Mu Xiangxiang was lying on the ground, under her was a pool of dark stuff.
Old Mrs. Mu, after cursing Mrs. Lin, still felt unsatisfied and swung a stool, hitting Mrs. Lin.
Old Mrs. Mu rushed up, grabbed Mrs. Lin’s hair and pulled like her life depended on it.
In one go, she pulled out a handful of hair.
Mrs. Lin’s scalp was almost torn off.
She wailed endlessly and astonishingly reached out to fight back against Old Mrs. Mu.
Mrs. Lin was not easy to deal with. Though lazy, she often did heavy work like carrying pig food and cleaning the pigsty.
Fighting with Old Mrs. Mu, she didn’t suffer any losses.
Old Mrs. Mu pulled her hair, she extended her dirty nails and scratched Old Mrs. Mu’s face.
In a short mont, she tore off a good chunk of Old Mrs. Mu’s skin.
When it ca to fighting, Old Mrs. Mu was the undefeated champion.
Throughout the village, regardless of age or weight, Old Mrs. Mu had fought everyone and no one was her match.
"You shaless woman, dare to fight back, I’ll kill you!"
Slap, slap, two more blows, leaving Mrs. Lin’s face distorted.
The central room was in chaos, as Mu Xiangxiang lay on the floor, barely breathing.
Suddenly, Mr. Mu, sohow filled with energy, shouted, "Everyone stop, anyone still fighting will be kicked out of the Old Mu Family."
Mrs. Lin, hearing Mr. Mu, stopped, but was instantly tricked again by Old Mrs. Mu, who pulled another bunch of her hair.
Mrs. Lin covered her head, crouched on the ground sobbing, her hair scattered all over the floor.
Mr. Mu exerted so effort and finally brought the situation under control.
Mu Shuangshuang then directed Zhang Huai Shu to look.
Upon entering the house, Mu Shuangshuang and Zhang Huai Shu were overwheld by the foul stench, forcing them back a few steps.
Seeing Mu Xiangxiang rolling her eyes and foaming at the mouth, they were even more terrified.
"Old Zhang, are you here to save my daughter?" Mr. Mu discovered Zhang Huai Shu’s presence and hurriedly approached.
Attempting to shake Zhang Huai Shu’s hand, he was quietly pushed away.
"Enough, I’m not here for your daughter, I’m here because your third and fourth sons begged .
Let’s not discuss your daughter’s matter. Find soone to clean her up and remove all the filth."
Since Old Mrs. Mu had finally stopped punishing Mrs. Lin, Mu Xiangxiang’s head was covered in filth, completely unpresentable.
Mr. Mu was stuck for a mont and could only ask Old Mrs. Mu to take care of it.
"Xiangxiang, you quickly get water ready for Xiangxiang. Second and Fifth, carry her to her room, find a woman to change Xiangxiang’s clothes."
Mr. Mu’s eyes scanned around and finally landed on Mu Shuangshuang.
"Shuang, your aunt is in this state, can you help?"
Mu Shuangshuang was shocked.
This old man was truly interesting, with Mrs. Jin right next to Mu Xiangxiang, not asking her, but going far to ask her, a granddaughter?
Really amusing.
"Grandpa, Shuangshuang’s hands aren’t gentle. If I accidentally hurt Aunt, Granny might die from heartache," said Mu Shuangshuang.
Old Mrs. Mu pointed at Mrs. Lin’s head and said, "Second daughter-in-law, this is all your fault, go heat the water, I’ll take care of my daughter personally."
While directing Mrs. Lin, Old Mrs. Mu didn’t forget to bla her, leaving Mrs. Lin feeling unjustly accused.
What did she do wrong?
Old Mrs. Mu said, "It’s all because of you, the second and fifth sons. If it weren’t for you staying in town for a night for one tael of silver, how would Shuangshuang have eaten all the breakfast herself? I won’t settle the account for two taels of silver with you now.
Rember, I won’t let you off easily."
Mrs. Lin was both angry and anxious but dared not show any dissatisfaction.
She went to the kitchen, without washing the pot, began to heat water for Mu Xiangxiang.
Feeling discontent, Mrs. Lin scooped a handful of white pepper from the jar and tossed it into the water, starting to boil it.
Boiling this water with pepper, even when heated, would be spicy.
Mrs. Lin was deep in thought, not noticing soone entering the kitchen.
Seeing soone, she was almost frightened to death.
"Mom, it’s , Qingqing!" Mu Qingqing appeared in the kitchen, whispering.
"You dead girl, scared to death." Mrs. Lin patted her chest, still shaken.
Following Mrs. Lin’s gaze, Mu Qingqing saw many white peppers floating in the pot, instantly brightening her mood.
But she soon spoke again.
"Mom, I want to marry Young Master Qin."
"What? That misshapen fruit? He’s your uncle!"
Mrs. Lin suspected she heard wrong. Although Qin Shijie was rich, he was not worthy of her daughter.
She liked n who were rich, handso, and ca from good families.
"What about an uncle? If not married, nothing matters. Besides, didn’t my brother steal Fifth Uncle’s betrothed and get engaged to Miss Huang?"
Mu Qingqing thought differently from Mrs. Lin.
She considered it clever that Miss Huang was married into their family by her brother.
The best things were those snatched from others.
"Mom, I’m not joking with you. The Qin family is rich and willing to give my aunt such freedom.
If given as much freedom, I’d definitely open several shops and buy you and Dad gold to play with," said Mu Qingqing.
Mrs. Lin was a bit tempted.
The Qin family wasn’t stingy, had they not given a tael of silver, the second family wouldn’t have enjoyed a day.
Though it looked bad now, at least they had played, better than the fourth family who had nothing.
"Qingqing, this is hard to handle. We don’t know if your aunt will die. If she does, talking to your grandma about replacing her is easy, but now..."
Mrs. Lin hadn’t gone outside yet, so she wasn’t aware of the rumors.
At this mont, she considered marrying off Mu Qingqing, especially to the Qin family, a sure win.
"Enough, Mom, the water is ready, fetch water for Aunt now, or Grandma might co asking soon."
Mrs. Lin was startled, hurriedly scooping the white pepper out of the pot...
