A Happy Event in a Farming Family: Marrying a Hunter

"Cough cough..."

Liu Mei stared intently at the man lying motionless on the ground, recalling past events. Anger and humiliation surged within her, and she stomped on him repeatedly, eliciting a pig-like scream.

"Grandma, please forgive me, I'll never do it again..."

"Xiao Luo, will you beat him to death?"

"This kind of person almost ruined your life just now. He deserves to be beaten to death. Keep hitting him!"

The two girls showed no mercy, kicking and stomping at Qin Dazhuang, who clutched his stomach tightly, his face contorted in pain.

After the two left, Qin Dazhuang slowly stood up. "You bitch, just you wait... ah..."

He was about to curse again when his foot slipped, and he tumbled down the hillside. There was a tree of moderate size in the middle of the hillside, and by sheer coincidence, Qin Dazhuang got stuck on it.

A loud bang echoed through the forest, and Qin Dazhuang clearly heard the sound of his egg breaking.

"Damn it... ah..."

Yunluo and Liumei clearly heard the heart-wrenching sound.

"Xiao Luo, did you hear me?"

"I reckon Qin Dazhuang is crying and screaming right now. Come on, let's go wash up in the stream ahead. If you keep acting like this, who knows what people will say about you when you get home!" Yun Luo said, sensing that something was wrong.

There were many bluish-purple marks below Liu Mei's neck, some deep and some shallow, which must have been there before. "Xiao Mei, who hit you?"

Liu Mei looked flustered and somewhat embarrassed, "It's alright, it's all over!"

"Was it your husband who hit you?" Yun Luo lifted her sleeve, revealing even more bruises on her arm. She was stunned. "You're his wife, how could he hit you like that?"

"Actually, it's not entirely his fault. I've gotten used to this kind of life. Let's go back quickly."

Seeing that she seemed to have taken it all in stride, Yunluo didn't know how to persuade her.

People here are very stubborn. Once they marry someone, no matter how the other person treats them, that's how it is for them for the rest of their lives.

She felt resentment, but was powerless to change anything.

On the way back, the two resumed their previous banter, as if the bad things that had happened were just illusions.

When Yunlu arrived at her doorstep, she saw that the old lady of the Yun family was waiting for her at the door.

"Luo girl, if you're going to leave, just leave. Why did you lock the door? You made me stand here for so long!"

Yun Luo curled her lips into a smile. "Of course, I'm afraid some people will steal into my house and sell my child. How did the milk come about?"

The old lady's face immediately darkened, and she muttered something under her breath, "Do you still have any rose ointment? Give me two bottles!"

Yunlu frowned immediately. Her mother wouldn't tell anyone, so how did she know?

"Didn't your mother give your aunt a bottle? I used it and it worked well. Do you have any more?" the old lady said, leaning her head over.

Yunlu took two steps back, realizing the gist of it, and guessed that her mother had been tricked again.

These greedy devils.

You want to use rose ointment, right?

Sure, it's not difficult!

Yun Luo squinted, "I've sold out. I need to make new ones, which require rose petals, but there aren't any petals left on the back mountain right now, so there's nothing I can do!"

"Wait!"

Grandma Yun immediately went back and carried a basket of flower petals, which Wang had picked and kept without throwing them away. Grandma Yun had ridiculed Wang for this.

"This much, is it enough for you to make two bottles for me? Can you finish it tonight?"

"Sure!" Yun Luo agreed. You want to take advantage of me? Let me take advantage of you all at once.

The old lady was satisfied when she saw that she had agreed and went back home. Yun Shaojie came to find Yun Luo and happened to see this. He was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick. "Sister, she is obviously trying to extort you. And that jar of rose petals that Mother had was stolen by them. Why did you agree?"

"I agreed, but I didn't say I'd make it with lard for her!"

"What kind of oil should we use?"

"For example, rat oil, or rotten oil..."

Yun Shaojie's eyes widened in disgust.

He couldn't bear to watch the rose ointment being made, so he took his two children to the river to catch fish.

Only an hour later, the old lady came again. As soon as she entered, she spotted the two pieces of green bamboo placed in the corner of the courtyard wall and immediately grabbed them into her arms. "Luo girl, I'm taking them!"

"Grandma, I'll sell this for sixty coins, but I'll give you half price, so you'll just give me sixty coins, okay?"

Grandma Yun scoffed, "It's only natural for a granddaughter to be filial to her elders. You're asking me for money? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

"By the way, milk isn't suitable for everyone; some people might be allergic to it."

The old lady didn't understand and was convinced that Yun Luo didn't want to give it to her, so she said irritably, "My allergy is my problem too!"

After she finished speaking, she left the Qin family while cursing.

Yunlu made a face at her, implying that someone was about to be in trouble.

Life went on like this. Yun Luo didn't go out these past few days, staying home to tidy up. Back at the Yun family home, the old lady received some good things and used them morning and night. Even Yun Lan benefited a little from it.

However, on this day, a sharp scream came from Yunlan's room, followed by the old lady's howl, breaking the silence.

"My face... milk..."

Yunlan ran into the yard and saw that her grandmother's face was covered with red bumps, just like hers. She felt disgusted. "Grandma, what happened? Why are our faces like this?"

Her shout immediately attracted the whole family. Xiao Cong was so frightened that he hid behind Wang Shi, crying out, "Sister and Grandma have turned into toads!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Yunlan covered her face. "Grandma, it must be Yunluo. She can't stand to see us doing well, so she put something in the things we use!"

The old lady finally understood why it was just her and Xiaolan.

That one deserves to be torn to pieces.

The grandfather and grandson stormed into Yun Luo's house and kicked the door open. Yun Luo was sweeping the floor when she saw the two men's faces covered in dark bumps and almost vomited.

"Yunluo, you heartless, black-hearted bastard, what did you put in the rose ointment? How did our faces turn like this?"

How am I supposed to go out and meet people?

Yunlu shrugged and blinked. "Grandma, the day you took it, I told you that some people might have an allergic reaction to this stuff. You even said that if someone had an allergic reaction, it would be your problem. How can you blame me now?"

"You... how am I supposed to know what an allergy means? You're just trying to harm us by making up all this nonsense. You have to find a way to get rid of these bumps on our faces today!"

"Yes, I still need to see Brother Lang!"

Yun Luo glanced at Yun Lan with a mocking expression, "Who you go to see is none of my business. It's not like I forced you to do it. If you ask me, you deserve it!"

"I'll tear you apart..." Yunlan said, lunging forward, but Yunlu nimbly dodged, hooking her foot and sending Yunlan sprawling into a mouthful of mud. She wailed, her face contorted with grotesque red pimples, "Grandma, she hit me..."

"Grandma, the pimples on your faces have nothing to do with me. I made the food. Why would I bother you with this? Maybe someone is secretly trying to harm you!"

The old lady thought about it and agreed.

Yun Luo isn't that stupid.

But the Yun family only has so many people, so who could it be?

She suddenly remembered Wang Shi. She had snatched a jar from her, and she was holding a grudge. Otherwise, why would she have stopped Yunlan from using it?

That heartless woman, she's incredibly wicked.

The old lady was furious and left in a hurry, not even caring about Yunluo.

"Grandma..." Yunlan's tears welled up. She got up on her own, her palms red, and glared fiercely at Yunluo. "You just wait!"
