Ugly girl only wants to farm

Xu Chaoyan frowned when she heard this from outside. The old woman's words were extremely sarcastic and mean, and she even insulted her own granddaughter.

As she entered the courtyard, she saw another group of people from the Li family, who surrounded the old lady and her family. Zhang Xuyang had gone to school that day, so only the mother and daughter were there. Uncle Zhang was nowhere to be found. The old lady looked very nervous and quickly protected her granddaughter behind her.

She yelled at the arrogant old woman, "What exactly do you want? My perfectly good daughter married you, and you've tortured her to the point of being unrecognizable. And my granddaughter, don't you know what you've done? What's with the embroidery needle in her hair? I'm telling you, this is abuse of my granddaughter. I'm reporting this to the authorities and letting them handle it."

The old woman scoffed dismissively, "My dear in-law, what are you saying? I would mistreat my own granddaughter if I didn't love her. Which eye of yours saw me mistreating her? I haven't even falsely accused you of abducting my granddaughter's wife. As the saying goes, a married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl. What are you trying to do? Have you already found her a new husband? Now that my son is in trouble, you want to abandon us? Let me tell you, no way."

Zhang Yueniang was much braver than before. She stepped forward and gently comforted her mother, saying, "Mother, why don't you go sit down and warm yourself by the fire? It's very cold in winter. Why argue with these people? I've already started the fire. Don't let you and Yaya get cold."

When Li Dazhu's mother saw that her daughter-in-law treated her like air and ignored her, even telling her to go warm herself by the fire, and that after they all came in, they weren't even offered a chair, let alone a cup of hot tea, her anger flared up.

“Zhang Yueniang, you’ve really grown up now, and you’ve become quite bold. Your mother-in-law is here and you can’t even offer her a bowl of hot water. Is this what you’re called, Zhang family’s daughter? Get home right now and stop embarrassing yourself here. I’ve let it go as you were being silly while you were away from home, but now that you’re back with me, I’ll let this matter drop for the time being.”

After the old woman finished speaking, she called over the three aunts and six maternal aunts who had come with her to try and pull Zhang Yueniang away.

Zhang Yueniang was no pushover either; she grabbed a stick from the side and started waving it around wildly.

"Let's see who dares to do this today. This is the Zhang family's courtyard, not a place for you to run wild."

Then she began her accusations, her words filled with sobs and tears: "You've bullied me all these years, and you actually stabbed your granddaughter in the head with your own hands! How dare you, with such a filthy and vicious mind, live in this world? Don't you want a grandson? Didn't that widow want to have one for you? I'll make room for your son. Don't say I've polluted your family's feng shui or that I'm taking your daughter-in-law's place. Let me tell you, I don't care about your mung bean son. He's eager to be a cuckold and be someone's father, wearing one green hat after another. If he's willing, I'll make room for you."

The old woman raised her hand to slap him: "Zhang Yueniang, have you gone too far? Has it been a long time since I've slapped you?"

Although the old woman was warming herself by the fire with Ya Ya, she was also paying attention to what was happening here. When she heard those words, her expression changed, and she grabbed the small stool she was sitting on and threw it at the woman.

"My pampered daughter is here for you to humiliate and beat. Open your dog eyes and see clearly whose territory this is."

Li Dazhu's mother was caught off guard and a stool was thrown at her, hitting her foot. She jumped up and down in pain, yelling furiously.

"Are you all blind? Can't you see I'm being bullied? Hurry up and arrest her! I don't believe the Zhang family can do anything. Since no one's around today, take this bitch back and teach her a lesson. If she doesn't behave, drown her in a pig cage."

Xu Chaoyan and Meng Jiuxia picked up door-blocking sticks from the side and stopped them.

"What do you want to do? Break into a private residence and abduct a woman, is that it? Let me tell you, I've already asked someone to report it to the authorities. If you don't want to face legal trouble, you'd better get out of here and keep a low profile from now on."

When Li Dazhu's mother came, she heard from her son that his brother-in-law was very good at studying and had a classmate who was a scholar.

These peasants are not to be trifled with. They just happened to come over today and found out that there were only a few weak women in the family, so they took this opportunity to forcibly take the mother and daughter back.

The women who accompanied her were still hesitant. After all, this wasn't their own business; they were just there to help. What if they got into trouble? They didn't want to cause any trouble for themselves, so they hesitated and didn't dare to go up.

Last time it was Li Dazhu's eldest aunt who came, this time it was his second aunt. She had heard from her eldest sister about the Zhang family's situation and that a scholar lived next door.

She didn't want to get herself into trouble, but her sister-in-law was too domineering, and with her brother's coercion and enticement, she had no choice but to come and make up the numbers, shouting a few times to try and get away with it.

She grabbed her tall, burly sister-in-law and went over to discuss the matter: "Sister-in-law, I think you should have a proper talk with your mother-in-law about this. You barged into someone else's house so unreasonably, and started hitting and killing people. Who's going to talk to you properly? What's the difference between you and a bandit?"

Da Zhu's mother slapped her hand away, her face full of disdain: "Second brother, get out of my way! Is this how you always side with outsiders? Your nephew is still lying in bed waiting for this slut to come back and serve him, and you still want to stir up trouble here? Are you that cowardly?"

After being pushed, Dazhu's second aunt stumbled and fell to the ground with a thud. She was already quite thin, and it took her a while to get up from the fall.

She pounded the ground several times in anger, but still couldn't help but offer a few words of advice: "Sister-in-law, don't blame me for not telling you in advance. If you want to take your nephew's wife back, you should talk to her properly. With your threats and threats, who would want to go back with you? And the way you treat your in-laws' mother, they're being kind by not beating you out with a few sticks. I'm too lazy to deal with you today. I'm going to the market in town to buy some things and then I'll go back. Don't bother me with any more troubles in the future."

The two groups remained locked in a stalemate when Zhang Yueniang suddenly ran back into the house, retrieved a divorce agreement from her brother's study, and threw it at her mother-in-law's face.

“I’ve already sent the divorce papers back. I want to divorce your son. If you don’t get your son to sign and put his fingerprint on them, I’ll tell everyone about my father-in-law’s illicit relationship with your sister-in-law, and about your affair with the old widower in the village. Don’t think I don’t know.”

Dazhu's mother felt a little guilty after her daughter-in-law said that, and her expression changed slightly. However, she didn't want to be controlled by her daughter-in-law in front of so many relatives.

She pretended to be calm, put her hands on her hips, pointed at Yue Niang, and started cursing: "You slut, you did something wrong and you still want to smear your mother-in-law. I'm telling you, don't try to change the subject. You still want a divorce. I'm being kind by not letting my son divorce you. You've violated all seven grounds for divorce. Which one haven't you violated? A harlot like you should be drowned in a pig cage."

Zhang Yueniang tapped the area around her feet a few times with the stick in her hand.

"Don't come near me, I find you disgusting. People are watching what you do, and heaven is watching too. Don't think that no one knows about the filthy things you've done. The cellar behind your house is practically your hideout, and that dilapidated hunting lodge on the mountain isn't your other hideout either."

Dazhu's mother's face turned pale and then red, and she was embarrassed. She squatted down, grabbed a handful of mud, and threw it at Yueniang's face.

"You bitch, you're talking nonsense! I'll beat you to death today!"

Xu Chaoyan quickly stopped her with a stick: "Crazy woman, don't act wildly here. Some people have done something wrong and are still resisting to the death. I think you are just disrespectful to your elders. Like mother, like son. You're even trying to be a cunning rabbit with three burrows? You're quite fashionable, old man. You're really playing tricks."

Dazhu's mother was pale at this moment. Her mouth moved a few times, and then she suddenly went crazy. She snatched a basket from a woman behind her and ran to Zhang Yueniang in a few steps, which frightened Xu Chaoyan and the other woman, who quickly stepped back.

She suddenly knelt on the ground with a thud, kowtowed violently, and muttered incantations.

This left Xu Chaoyan and Zhang Yueniang completely bewildered, unsure of what she was up to, and they were forced to retreat repeatedly.

“Zhang Yueniang, please come back with me. Please forgive us this time. If there is anything wrong with our family, we will try our best to correct it in the future. I will kowtow to you and apologize.”

Xu Chaoyan was completely bewildered by what she had just said. Then Xu Chaoyan noticed that although the woman was kowtowing to them, she was trying to kowtow to the damp parts of the soil.

It had rained a few days ago, and there was still some mud in the yard. A mocking smile appeared in her eyes. This old woman wasn't kindly admitting her mistake; it turned out she knew how to hurt herself after a fall.
