After transmigrating into the body of a stepmother, I led the villains in a rebellion.

Lin Shu smiled gently, "Auntie, you flatter me. This is my own secret recipe for grilled fish with banana leaves. If you don't mind, please feel free to try it."

Upon hearing that they could try it for free, everyone stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

There are still free foods in this world.

Everyone eagerly turned to Lu Junheng.

Fortunately, Lin Shu was prepared and took out small bamboo sticks made from tree branches.

Everyone took the bamboo skewers, gently picked up some fish meat to taste, and instantly, their surprise and delight were evident, their eyes wide open.

"Oh my, this taste is absolutely amazing! The outer skin is baked to perfection, crispy but not burnt, while the fish inside is tender and juicy, plus that unique banana aroma, it's simply a feast for the taste buds!"

"Indeed, the banana leaves not only lock in the freshness of the fish, but also cleverly blend in the fresh aroma of nature. This kind of deliciousness is unprecedented!"

Someone in the crowd couldn't wait to ask, "Hey girl, do you still have any grilled fish? I'm willing to pay a high price for one."

Lin Shu smiled calmly, "My raw fish originally cost fifteen coins each, but since it has been carefully grilled, let's call it twenty coins."

"Deal! I'll buy it!"

Lu Junheng had not expected that the grilled fish would be so popular. Even at a high price of twenty coins, it sold out quickly and was in short supply.

Those who failed to buy the grilled fish had regrets written all over their faces, and some even asked, "Miss, will there be this delicious food again tomorrow?"

“Of course,” Lin Shu replied with a smile.

"Then I will definitely come early tomorrow to queue up."

After seeing off the last customer, Lin Shu and Lu Junheng exchanged a smile, their hearts filled with joy.

Today's harvest far exceeded their expectations.

Lu Junheng took out all the silver from the bag and respectfully handed it to Lin Shu, "Mother, this is today's harvest."

Lin Shu took the silver, took out a hundred coins from it, and handed it back to Lu Junheng, saying, "Take this, this is the hard-earned money you deserve."

Lu Junheng quickly declined, "Mother, I'm just here to help, how can I accept your money?"

Lin Shu insisted, "This is the reward for your hard work today. If it weren't for you, how could these fish be selling so well?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Junheng finally stopped refusing.

Recalling his previous thoughts, he handed the money to Lin Shu again.

"Mother, can I use this money to ask you to treat Father and Grandmother's illnesses?"

Lin Shu smiled. "Were you thinking about this just now?"

Lu Junheng met Lin Shu's eyes and was taken aback.

So it turns out Mother knew all along.

Lin Shu gently patted Lu Junheng's head. "Aheng, we are family. There's no need to invite anyone. Whether it's your father or your grandmother, they will do their best to help if I can."

Lu Junheng's eyes gleamed with hope. "That's great, Mother. I'll definitely earn more money for you then."

"it is good."

Actually, she felt sorry for Lu Junheng. He was only eight or nine years old, but he was bearing the pressure of an adult.

A whole family, old and young, with a living dead person waiting for them, yet he bravely stood up for them.

I don't know what happened to them.

At this moment, she felt immense regret, wondering why she had skipped around while reading the book.

Now, we don't even know the backgrounds of the minor villains.

The mother and son rode in Uncle Liu's oxcart back to Qijia Village.

Before the two even entered the house, they could see from afar that the Lu family's courtyard was surrounded by people.

Lu Junheng's heart tightened suddenly, and he unconsciously tightened his grip on Lin Shu's hand.

His eyes were filled with worry and urgency. "Mother, something seems to have happened at home..."

Before Lu Junheng could finish speaking, he saw Lin Shu's figure disappear before his eyes as he ran towards the Lu family courtyard.

He quickly sped up to catch up.

When Lin Shu ran into the courtyard, it was surrounded by villagers who had come to watch the play.

Ji Shi and Lu Zijin stood in the middle, their once neat clothes now covered in mud.

Lu Zijin, in particular, seemed to have crawled out of the mud.

Chen Jiaxiu's arrogant voice still rang out, "The old ones are shameless, and the young ones are shameless too."

"You're blind and you still order your underlings to steal things. If I don't teach you a lesson today, I'll be letting down the fish you stole."

Seeing that Chen Jiaxiu was about to hit someone, Aunt Qi couldn't stand it and stepped forward to stop her, saying, "Liu family daughter-in-law, let's talk things out. Why resort to violence?"

"Speak nicely, speak nicely and this old hag will listen. Besides, they've already eaten all my fish, what's the point of talking? Today I'll make them spit it out."

“We didn’t steal it. My stepmother caught that fish,” Lu Zijing said, standing protectively in front of Ji Shi like a little leopard.

Hearing Lu Zijing's words, Chen Jiaxiu's anger burned even brighter.

She was so sure they were stealing fish because Ren Bilian came to tell her.

Even now, she still dares to argue. Does she really think she's easy to bully?

"You little bastard, you've been caught red-handed, and you still dare to argue? I'll beat you to death!" Chen Jiaxiu grabbed Lu Zijing and started hitting her.

Village head Feng Yingfa quickly intervened, saying, "Liu family daughter-in-law, how can you argue with a child like that? What could he possibly know at such a young age?"

"She doesn't know, but this blind old woman surely does. He must have ordered this little bastard to do it..."

The scene before her eyes deeply aggravated Lin Shu, causing the anger she had been suppressing to explode.

Even Lu Junheng, who arrived later, was furious, wishing he could tear Chen Jiaxiu to pieces.

However, before he could recover, Lin Shu had already picked up the sickle beside him and swung it directly at Chen Jiaxiu.

Chen Jiaxiu caught a glimpse of a dark figure out of the corner of her eye and instinctively let go of Lu Zijing to avoid it.

When she saw it clearly, a chill ran down her spine, and she looked in the direction from which the sickle had flown, her face filled with lingering fear.

Even the villagers who were watching were terrified by the sudden appearance of the sickle.

When everyone had recovered their senses, they saw Lin Shu walk in with a cold expression.

"They blatantly came to my house to bully my children and elderly people. Do they really think I have no one to rely on?"

Chen Jiaxiu stared at Lin Shu, her face deathly pale. She hadn't expected Lin Shu to want to kill her.

The villagers quickly made way for Chen Jiaxiu and Lin Shu, their eyes darting back and forth between them, creating an atmosphere of extreme tension.

Upon seeing this, Ren Bilian, who was hiding in the crowd, quickly turned around and fled from the Lu family.

"You bitch, you...you dare to do this!"

Chen Jiaxiu pointed at Lin Shu, her voice trembling, clearly terrified by Lin Shu's actions.

"What wouldn't I dare to do?" Lin Shu sneered, his eyes sharp as knives. "You came to my house to bully people, even if I kill you, it's what you deserve."

Lu Junheng quickly stepped forward and approached Ji Shi and Lu Zijin with concern, "Grandma, Zijin, are you alright?"

Lu Zijing, who was originally like a little leopard, pouted with a wronged expression when she saw Lin Shu and Lu Junheng.

Lin Shu glanced coldly at Chen Jiaxiu, picked up the sickle from the ground, and approached her step by step.

Chen Jiaxiu took a step back in fear. "What do you want to do?"

"Didn't you say you were going to vomit up the fish you ate? Perfect, I'd like to see if the fish in your stomach is the same as the fish in my house," Lin Shu said, raising his sickle and slashing at Chen Jiaxiu.
