It was already dark, and no one could see each other's expressions. They could only see that the person was standing in front of them, and they couldn't detect anything wrong in their tone.

Wu Sihua continued, "I say you're not as good as Du Mingxian. Look at her, she married into the Ling family, and look at the life the Ling family is living now. Even Ling Silang, a sickly man who's almost dead, passed the imperial examination. You call yourself a lucky woman? You're more like an unlucky woman."

"What? What did you say? Say it again." Du Mingwei rushed forward like a madwoman, grabbed Wu Sihua's arm and shook it violently. Her hand was so shocked by the news that she squeezed it so hard that it seemed like she could crush Wu Sihua's bones.

Wu Sihua cried out in pain, "Ah!"

Wu Erniu hurriedly stepped forward and shoved Du Mingwei away, "What are you doing? Didn't you hear Sihua cry out in pain? Why did you hurt Sihua?"

Du Mingwei had already heard nothing more. She was pushed to the ground, but she wasn't angry. As if she had lost her mind, she stood up and asked again, "What were you saying just now? That sickly guy passed the imperial examination? Who spread the rumor?"

“What rumors? It’s true. Didn’t you hear that Dahe Village has already held a ceremony at the ancestral hall? They even hosted a banquet. It’s such a big event, and the surrounding villages are all talking about it. How come you didn’t know anything about it?” Wu Erniu asked suspiciously.

Du Mingwei felt extremely guilty and could only use a shout to slightly cover up her unease, "What else can you do? Of course, you go into the mountains to find food and figure out a way to feed you bunch of good-for-nothings."

Upon hearing themselves called good-for-nothings, the younger members of the Wu family could not tolerate it.

Wu Erniu stepped forward and started cursing, "What did you just say? Who did you call trash?"

Wu Sanniu said, "When my elder brother was alive, you weren't like this. When my elder brother passed away, you told him to take good care of us. Now that he's only been gone a short time, you're treating us like this."

"Second brother, third brother, let's write to eldest brother and tell him that this woman is unruly at home and is having affairs with other men." Wu Sihua really didn't know anything, but she was angered by Du Mingwei's attitude, so she started making things up, intending to slander Du Mingwei.

Du Mingwei was furious and helpless when she heard this.

She was supposed to marry a sickly man, but for some reason he wasn't bedridden in this life; in fact, he even passed the imperial examination. She didn't like hearing this news.

But this slut dared to announce her affair and even wanted to write a letter to Wu Daniu. If Wu Daniu found out, wouldn't he divorce her immediately?

So what is she scheming for in this second life?

Out of anger and fear, she stepped forward and slapped Wu Sihua hard, saying, "Shut up."

Du Mingwei used all her strength, driven by anger and resentment, and felt particularly satisfied when she slapped Wu Sihua across the face.

Wu Sihua felt dizzy and disoriented. Her right ear, which had been hit by Du Mingwei, seemed to be blocked by a layer of something, making it difficult for her to hear. She could hear the concerned voices of her second and third brothers, but she couldn't hear them.

It was as if every sound echoed in her ears.

Wu Sihua's dazed expression made Wu Erniu and Wu Sanniu feel sorry for her. The two young boys, regardless of whether Du Mingwei was a woman or their sister-in-law, went straight up to Du Mingwei and started hitting her.

Wu Xiaohua was so frightened by the scene that she burst into tears. Hearing his sister cry, the two Wu boys beat her even harder.

Now that Du Mingwei has already made her move, she can no longer afford to be beaten.

then……

A chaotic one-on-two situation has begun.

You hit me, I hit you; neither of us will let the other get away with it.

The two boys, though younger, are still boys. Du Mingwei, even though she is an adult, is only fifteen this year, so she will suffer the most.

In the midst of the fight, suddenly Du Mingwei cried out in pain, "Ah..."

The fight stopped, and everyone stared blankly at Du Mingwei, whose face was contorted in pain as she clutched her stomach with one hand. At that moment, a pair of scissors was stuck in her stomach.

"You...you want to kill me." Du Mingwei reached out and grabbed Wu Sihua, who had stabbed someone with scissors in a fit of rage, and held her tightly.

Wu Sihua couldn't hear clearly, her whole body was trembling, she was terrified, tears streamed down her face, and when faced with Du Mingwei's questioning, she instinctively shrank back.

Du Mingwei continued, "I'm your sister-in-law. I came into your house, fed you, and clothed you, and you still want to kill me?"

Wu Sihua was still young and was quite frightened. She said in a trembling voice with tears in her eyes, "Second brother, I'm scared, I'm scared."

Wu Erniu was a boy and older, and he was also frightened by the scene. When he heard Wu Sihua's voice, he felt sorry for her and stepped forward to pull Du Mingwei's hand away from Wu Sihua.

Then he said with disgust, "You have the nerve to say that? You were the one who hit someone first, that's why Sihua is like this."

Du Mingwei felt intense pain all over her body, and blood kept flowing from between her fingers, as if her life was slipping away. She was a little scared. "I'm sorry, I was just too anxious, that's why I hit four flowers."

"Hmph, that's pretty much it."

"Can you help me find my family?"

Wu Erniu frowned, hesitating. Wu Sanniu said, "No, I can help you stop the bleeding first."

Wu Daniu was a hunter who always kept wound medicine at home.

Wu Sanniu removed the scissors and casually sprinkled the medicine powder he had taken out on Du Mingwei's body. Wu Erniu held up a lamp for him. After Wu Sanniu bandaged Du Mingwei's wounds, the two brothers left the house.

The group was in the yard, and by the light of the lamp, they could see a large pool of blood. Everyone looked grim.

"Second brother, will she die? I didn't mean to, I don't know why I did it..."

"It's alright." After comforting his sister, Wu Erniu turned to Wu Sanniu, "Sanniu, she'll be alright, won't she?"

"It's hard to say. I don't know if the bleeding can be stopped. It's best to go see a doctor."

"It's already dark, so it's not convenient to go to town."

Wu San Niu was conflicted. He shouldn't have to go, but his sister-in-law was really dead. How would he explain it to her family? His older brother could handle it.

"Should we take her to see a doctor? I saw she's bleeding a lot. Will she die?" Wu Sihua felt particularly scared at this moment. How could she have stabbed the other person?

Wu Sanniu also agreed with Wu Sihua's idea, "Actually, sending him to see a doctor is the best way. After all, people can't die. The sooner he is cured, the better it will be for us as well."
