Du Mingxian didn't bring anything into the house; she just wandered around, her purpose being to let Du Mingcheng know that she wasn't sharing a room with Ling Silang.

She knew the Du family's character; Du Mingcheng was a treasure at home, so how could they send someone like him to deliver such a message?

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

She didn't rush to catch the carriage, and just walked with Du Mingcheng towards Kaoshan Village. However, the two took a small path, which was difficult to walk on, but they were fast.

When they were all alone, Du Mingcheng called out to her, "Du Mingxian, you're the one who made Mingcai disappear, aren't you?"

Du Mingxian turned around, frowning as she pondered how to bring up the matter.

Du Mingcheng thought she was afraid to admit it and said directly, "Mingcai left with you that day, and then Mingcai never came home. You must have done something to make Mingcai stay away from home."

Du Mingcai was not as popular as Du Mingcheng at home because Du Mingcai was naughty and liked to hang out with hooligans. He often didn't come home, and his family treated him like a child who was out playing.

It's normal to not see someone for two or three days.

But this time was different. Du Mingcai hadn't come home for the past two days. No one else in the Du family noticed anything was wrong, but Du Mingcheng did. He was the one who orchestrated everything behind the scenes, and his younger brother had disappeared.

Five days later, when his family still hadn't seen his younger brother, they tried to inquire about him, but no one saw him. He had his own selfish reasons and didn't tell his family that Du Mingcai had disappeared because he was following Du Mingxian.

With his younger brother gone, everything in the family will belong to him alone from now on.

He did hope that his useless older sister would clear the way for him, but he needed to be sure, to be sure that his younger brother was really gone.

"It must be because you resent your sister for changing her marriage, that's why you attacked Mingcai, right? You did it, didn't you?"

Du Mingxian realized this man was bluffing, and she herself became somewhat flustered. "Do you have evidence? Or are you expecting something?"

In that lifetime, she failed to see this person clearly.

Du Mingcheng vehemently objected, "You're talking nonsense. What do I have to expect? Let me tell you, you're the one who did all this. The family doesn't know yet. If you give me some money, I won't tell the family about this, and Mingcai's matter will have nothing to do with you."

Du Mingxian sneered, not intending to waste words with him, and walked straight ahead.

Du Mingcheng became anxious as he watched her leave. "Why are you leaving? Are you feeling guilty? Let me tell you, feeling guilty won't help now. You have to give me the money, or I'll tell my family when we get home that you hid Mingcai or that Mingcai is dead. You did it."

Du Mingxian stopped, staring straight at him, and finally seemed to realize something, "Oh, I see, you want your only brother to die so that everything in the family will be yours, how interesting."

In that lifetime, Du Mingcai also seemed to die in the end, but it was a few years later.

Du Mingxian ignored Du Mingcheng's barking and walked away, finding his voice annoying.

All the way to Kaoshan Village, Du Mingxian walked extremely fast. Du Mingcheng, who rarely worked in the fields, couldn't keep up. After entering the village, he naturally couldn't call out anymore, and his eyes were filled with resentment as he looked at Du Mingxian.

When Du Mingxian entered the Du family home, it was very lively.

There were several people in the courtyard, including the two relatives of her husband's family whom she had invited, as well as all the members of the Du family.

When Old Lady Du saw her enter, she immediately shouted at the big man, "Go with her, she's your niece, she's not allowed to stay in our house."

Du Mingxian feigned a hint of surprise, "Who is this?"

Upon seeing her, the burly man immediately adopted a fawning expression. "You must be Mingxian? I'm your uncle, Xu Dazhuang."

Previously, we only discussed the surname Xu and didn't care about the given name, Du Mingxian. But now that we hear the name Xu Dazhuang, it feels very down-to-earth.

"Uncle? But my mother has no brothers." After saying that, she seemed to realize something, "You are my mother's relatives?"

"Yes." Xu Dazhuang had been thinking about how to act these past two days, and now that he saw Du Mingxian, he acted even more hard. "We searched so hard for your mother, but her family has all scattered. Now it's just me, your cousin, and your bedridden grandmother left."

Xu Tingting also hurried over, acting all excited, and directly grabbed Du Mingxian's hand, "Oh my, you are my cousin, but you are... too thin. Are you having a hard time at home? Tell your cousin, and your cousin will stand up for you."

“She’s already married. If she’s not doing well, it’s because her wife is treating her badly. You can go to the Ling family and cause trouble.”

"You got married? You're so young to get married, you must have been forced into it."

Du Mingxian then put on a look that seemed to say something she couldn't quite put into words, saying nothing at the same time, yet as if she had already expressed all her grievances.

Xu Tingting immediately went berserk, "Well, your Du family is really despicable! How dare you mistreat my cousin! I won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't swallow this malice."

Then Du Mingxian saw Xu Tingting perform a magic trick, holding an axe in her hand, and go straight into the house and smash things in the main room, not even sparing the doors and windows.

The Du family members seemed to be terrified, and none of them dared to utter a single word.

Finally, Xu Yulan came to her senses and shouted to Du Mingcheng, who had just entered the room, "Mingcheng, quickly go and call the clan chief and village chief over, and let them judge this matter."

Du Mingcheng turned and ran. No one else in the courtyard moved. Du Youliang wanted to stop him, but he was too weak to do so. After being hit by Du Mingxian, he was not injured, but he had not been able to get out of bed for a long time.

The only reason I'm in the yard today is because that brute Xu Dazhuang dragged me there.

"You've gone too far! My Du family is incredibly unlucky to have married such a woman. We want a divorce! We want a divorce!" Old Mrs. Du was also dragged out. Now she sat weakly on the ground, pounding the ground and kicking up dust.

Xu Tingting smashed things and cursed, "Fine, fine, you bullied us first, and now you want to divorce your wife? Let me tell you, you want to divorce your wife? No way! And if you want to divorce your husband, my aunt has suffered all kinds of humiliation in your house. If we want to divorce our husbands, your family has to compensate us."

A large crowd had already gathered outside to watch the commotion. Everyone was staring at the door, whispering among themselves, but no one came out to ask why.

The main reason is that although Xu Dazhuang is disabled, he came from the battlefield, where he had actually killed people and seen blood. Although life had smoothed out some of his rough edges, he was still releasing his killing intent without restraint, which made the ordinary people in the village somewhat afraid.

The word "divorce" left everyone speechless.

I've only ever heard of sons-in-law being divorced before, never of a wife divorcing her husband after marrying into the family. That would be a huge joke if it got out.
