A farmer has a shrewish wife; he's busy making money every day.

At this moment, Ye Qingxue was completely unaware of Lu Chuci's thoughts.

She wrapped the purple bamboo grass in layers of cloth, took a rabbit out of the basket, and brought it into the kitchen.

Ye Qingxue swiftly broke the rabbit's neck and began processing the rabbit meat.

Skewer the meat with wooden skewers, rub it with salt, light a fire, and you can start grilling.

The rabbit meat began to sizzle and release its oil, gradually releasing a delicious aroma.

After a whole day of fussing and commotion yesterday, Ye Qingxue hadn't eaten a single grain of rice yet, and her mouth was practically watering.

Rabbit meat is cooked through when it turns golden brown.

Even without any other seasonings, the rabbit meat seasoned with just homemade salt is so delicious it's almost intoxicating.

Sure enough, a short while later, there was a loud knocking on the door.

Li You, outside, started yelling again: "Hey, you inside! What are you doing?! It's suffocating! Don't burn the house down! Get out here now!"

Ye Qingxue opened the door, holding three skewers of rabbit meat.

Li You's eyes lit up instantly, revealing a longing expression.

"Where...did you get this?"

How could a little girl possibly catch a rabbit by herself?

Besides, no matter how precious this meat is, instead of taking it to the county to exchange for money, you just ate it like that!

What a waste!

Ye Qingxue smiled slightly: "What's it to you?"

Li You stomped her feet in anger: "Hey! I'm your mother-in-law, how dare you not treat me properly?"

Ye Qingxue ignored her and went straight to her parents.

"Father, Mother, eat meat."

Lin Zhi was somewhat surprised: "Xiao Xue, where did this come from?"

"I caught it on the mountain."

Li You, standing behind her, was displeased: "Stop lying! You must have tricked her off some man! I'm warning you, we don't have any unfaithful women in our family!"

Ye Qingxue glanced at it indifferently, her mind racing.

She understood that Li You did not value carrying on the family line like Lu Meng did, and only regarded her as an ordinary daughter-in-law, an outsider, and would inevitably make things difficult for her in every way.

But she's not one to give in to injustice!

Ye Qingxue suddenly collapsed onto the bed, crying out loudly, "Mother-in-law, is it necessary to be so fierce? I was just desperately trying to find some meat to offer to my parents. If you want to eat, I'll give it to you. Why do you have to make me sound so terrible?"

In the deserted village, the houses were all next to each other, and the walls were not soundproof. If there was even the slightest noise, all the neighbors could hear it.

Ye Qingxue spoke these words without lowering her voice, as loudly as possible.

Li You panicked immediately.

They have a useless son. If word gets out that they mistreated their daughter-in-law, no one will respect them anymore!

Ye Qingxue was still "crying".

"You were the one who said you wouldn't give us a single drop of food, which is why I went up the mountain. How come now that I've worked so hard to get it, you want to steal it from me?"

Li You's face paled slightly, and he hurriedly covered Ye Qingxue's mouth, saying, "You little slut, shut up right now!"

Ye Jing was furious: "How can you be like this, woman? My Xiaoxue is so heartbroken, and you're still cursing at me!"

A crowd of onlookers gradually gathered outside the Lu family's house.

"What's wrong!" Lu Meng's voice came from outside.

Li You looked over in alarm.

Her master instructed her to be patient with Ye Qingxue so that she could bear a child.

She thought that Ye's third daughter had always been timid and didn't know how to speak properly when she was out. What could she do if she was scolded a couple of times? Could she complain to her?

Besides, which wife doesn't get up before noon? Which wife doesn't share her food with her family?

Did she do anything wrong? She believes she didn't.

But unexpectedly, Ye Qingxue started crying and screaming. Who knows what the neighbors will say? If she gets hurt, her husband will definitely punish her!

And just then, Ye Qingxue clutched her stomach and collapsed!
