The young couple from the farm fights back

Chapter 2: The scheming stepmother-in-law

Lin's shrewd old eyes seemed to see through Jiang Li's abnormality. She curled her lips in disapproval, "What's the matter? Don't you see how shameless you are? After the family was divided, you just wanted to take advantage of me. If I hadn't been able to stand on my own, I would have been skinned and sucked dry by you, the eldest branch of the family."

Wang also nodded indignantly: "That's right, sister-in-law, don't blame our mother for not helping your first wife. Where in the world can you find a mother-in-law as good as our mother? On the day the family was divided, she gave the only five taels of silver left in the family to your first wife."

"You, the eldest branch, always come to me to ask for help whenever you have problems. Why don't you think about how we managed before we were separated?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li glanced at Wang indifferently. Wang was stupid, so he didn't bother with her for the time being.

It’s Lin.

When Old Man Zhou left, he had clearly written the documents for the division of the family property, and each family member would receive 20 taels of silver and two acres of good farmland.

Lin took all these things for granted and kept crying and showing off her poverty in front of her son and daughter-in-law all day long, making the whole family really believe that the Zhou family was so poor that they couldn't even make ends meet.

It is not unreasonable to say that Wang is stupid. If the Zhou family is having a hard time, where do they get the steamed buns for two meals a day?

Jiang Li smiled contemptuously, changed her attitude, and helped the two babies get up from the ground.

Seeing this, Lin couldn't help but frown, but she didn't agree in her heart.

Jiang Li naturally guessed what was in Lin's mind. In the past, Jiang never dared to act arrogantly in front of her, and even when she looked up she stuttered when speaking. No wonder Lin didn't take the eldest wife seriously.

"My second sister-in-law means that our eldest branch has taken advantage of the family since the division?" Jiang Li glanced at Lin meaningfully, but asked Wang.

Wang frowned in confusion. Why did this sound strange?

"Isn't it true that everyone in the whole Shili Village knows that your eldest branch split up the family and took away the last five taels of silver that our Zhou family had left? Don't act like a slut after getting a good thing." Wang thought, since she was right anyway, she had nothing to be afraid of.

Lin's face darkened a little as she thought to herself, the eldest couple, who had been suppressed by her before, were trying to stir up trouble today!

Although she felt uneasy, she had to pretend to be calm: "Huh~, Jiang, what do you mean by that? I advise you to speak according to your conscience."

"You two said at the beginning that you only wanted the money and not the family land. I agreed to your request. Now, do you think you can deny it?"

When Jiang Li mentioned this, she felt furious. Her original body and her husband were brainless. Five taels of silver seemed like a lot, but how could it be compared with two acres of land?

Only with land can you have roots, and only with roots can you have foundations. How can you support a family without roots and foundations?

He took five taels of silver and spent three taels to borrow a few acres of land from others for farming. It was a complete waste.

Jiang Li glanced at Lin, with a faint smile on her lips. She was not like those girls who traveled through books in other novels and were afraid that their personalities would change and they would be mistaken for monsters.

"Look at what you're saying, mother-in-law. How dare I, as your daughter-in-law, have any objections to you, my elder? But I did hear from my head of the family that before my father-in-law passed away, he signed two documents dividing the family property. One is in your hands, mother-in-law, and the other is in my uncle's hands."

Ding~

Lin's heart trembled, and his old eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Jiang Li fiercely.

In recent years, her uncle was taken to the city by his promising children to enjoy a good life, and she had the opportunity to cover up the matter.

How did Jiang and the boss know about it?

Wang was confused when she heard this. She had just married into the family the year her father-in-law passed away.

The original intention was to bring good luck to the Zhou family, but in the end the happiness failed.

God knows how scared Wang was at that time, fearing that people would say she was unlucky. She almost kept her tail between her legs in front of her mother-in-law, Lin.

Not to mention whether she had heard of any documents on the division of the family property, she never dared to ask about her mother-in-law's management of the family.

"Heh." Lin quickly calmed down and adopted her usual dignified demeanor as an elder. "Jiang, do you think I'm easy to bully? What's the point of making up stories with empty words? Where did you get the documents for dividing the family? The old man never even mentioned dividing the family before he died."

"If you two hadn't been so exhausted and sullen all the time in front of me during those years, making the villagers think that I, as your stepmother, was mean to you two, how could I have endured the loss of the family division?"

"it is good!"

As soon as Lin finished speaking, Jiang Li nodded happily and took over the conversation: "Since you said so, mother-in-law, your daughter-in-law naturally has nothing more to say to you. But I heard that my uncle will return to the village to worship the ancestors the day after tomorrow. How about this, I will take the children to ask my uncle if this is true."

Lin's face immediately turned as black as ink. She was so angry that she jumped three feet high and cursed at Jiang Li.

"You are so good, Jiang. I was wrong before. I didn't expect you to be such a black-hearted woman. I have to ask myself, since I married into the Zhou family, I have worked hard for the eldest brother, and I was afraid that the eldest brother would think that I, his stepmother, treated him badly. In the end, you two black-hearted couple have to slander me as a vicious stepmother."

"Oh my god, please open your eyes and take a look~"

"Plop!" As Lin was talking, she sat down on the ground, kicked her legs, and started to make a scene.

Wang was horrified and hurriedly helped her mother-in-law up: "Mother, mother, please get up quickly~"

"Sister-in-law, look how angry you've made our mother. If anything happens to her, my boss, my third brother, and my fourth sister will never let it go."

Wang was righteous and looked like a good daughter-in-law, caring for and protecting her mother-in-law.

Jiang Li chuckled coldly and said silently, "I don't know if she can be so angry that she can do good or evil. Since my mother-in-law doesn't recognize the original document of division of the family, we can ask my uncle the day after tomorrow."

Jiang Li knew clearly that Lin would not give in easily until the last moment.

After saying that, Liangliang glanced at Wang and said, "Second sister-in-law, you can rest assured. Mother-in-law is in good health and will live a long life."

But she didn't live to be a hundred years old. In the book, Lin lived to the point where she and her daughter were taken to Beijing to enjoy a comfortable life. Over the years, all the money Lin had embezzled was for her beautiful little daughter, fourteen-year-old Zhou Xingyue.

Zhou Xingyue is the heroine of "The Farmer Girl Becomes a Princess", the treasure and the apple of Lin's eye.

It is said that when Zhou Xingyue was born, a fortune teller passed by Shilitun and asked for a drink of water at Old Zhou's house.

In order to thank Old Man Zhou for his words, the old charlatan calculated Zhou Xingyue's fortune and said that this girl would be rich or noble in the future and would be the lucky star of the Zhou family.

For this reason, Zhou Xingyue was held in Lin's palm for fear of dropping her, and held in his mouth for fear of melting her. In the whole family, the little girl was the only one who was Lin's lifeblood.

After Jiang Li finished speaking, she turned around holding the two babies and noticed Xiao Lin standing at the door of the third room.

Xiao Lin is Lin's niece. She just married the third brother Zhou Yunfu last year. The couple got pregnant right after their marriage, but gave birth to a girl whom Lin did not like.

After all, she was her own niece. No matter how much Lin disliked her, she was still nice to Xiao Lin, even better than to Wang, her second son's loyal daughter-in-law.

Xiao Lin held her three-month-old daughter in her arms and looked timidly at her sister-in-law who was different from before.

Xiao Lin has a gentle personality, but is extremely sensitive, and Jiang Li knows that.

I think Kobayashi should have noticed her changes.

It doesn't matter. Jiang Li is fearless and even traveled through a book. Now she is living a happy life with the bones of the people in the book.

"Brother Heng, Brother Jing, let's go home."

Jiang Li lowered her head and looked at the two babies. Her eldest son, Zhou Yiheng, was only four years old, but he was old enough to be sensible.

At this moment, he opened his round eyes and looked at her with a strange look.

Look how scared the child is, it's so fucking awful.
