Armed with a machete and a gun, armed with a system, they fled the famine.

Half an hour ago, Yang Erlang was found unconscious on the official road leading to Yong'an County by Yang Zhangshi.

At this moment, he was lying weakly in bed, letting the village doctor, Dr. Hu, take his pulse and examine him.

Zhao Yan's slash caused him to lose two large bowls of blood.

He didn't faint at first because Zhao Yan, that madwoman, was watching him like a hawk, so he didn't dare to faint.

As soon as Zhao Yan left, he forced himself to move towards the official road, but before he could take two steps, he collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness.

If it weren't for Yang Zhangshi's eyelids twitching uncontrollably at home, fearing something might happen to her second son, and her rushing to the official road in Yong'an County to check on the situation, it's uncertain whether Yang Erlang would have returned alive.

"Dr. Hu, when will my Erlang wake up? Is his leg injury serious? Will he become lame?"

Yang Zhangshi asked in a sullen tone, her eyes drooping, though she was actually furious.

Without a doubt, this was definitely done by that idiot Zhao Yan.

Well, she even dared to use a knife on her second son!

When she gets back, I'm going to break her legs!

Wang Feng, her face contorted with grief and tears welling in her eyes, followed up, "Yes, Doctor Hu, Erlang's face is so pale. He won't... never wake up again, will he? Waaah..."

Upon hearing her second son's wife's words, Yang Zhangshi's face immediately darkened.

"Pah! What nonsense are you talking about? Erlang is fine, he'll definitely wake up, right, Doctor Hu?"

Hu Yongkang had just finished bandaging Yang Erlang's thigh wound when he heard this and was about to speak when a loud thud came from outside.

Zhao Yan, with a composed and pretty face, arrived at Old Yang's house and kicked open the wooden door.

With a loud bang, the wooden door was kicked away and crashed heavily onto the yellow earth, raising a cloud of dust.

A fierce glint flashed in Zhao Yan's eyes. Without saying a word, she rushed into the kitchen on the right and started smashing and beating things.

"boom--"

"Wow--"

"Boom-"

She would throw whatever she saw on the ground.

Pots, bowls, ladles, basins, a low table with a limp leg, and several chipped earthenware urns...

She would smash anything that could be broken.

A barrage of output followed.

In an instant, the small kitchen was transformed into a garbage dump.

"Hey! You damned bitch! Look what you've done!"

Hearing the sounds of things being smashed coming from the kitchen, Yang Zhangshi hurriedly ran out of the west wing.

Looking at the messy kitchen and the piles of smashed pots and pans on the floor, her anger was about to burst out.

She took small, quick steps to Zhao Yan and raised her arm to hit her in the face.

"I'll beat you to death, you slut!"

Zhao Yan naturally wouldn't let her hurt herself.

The moment Yang Zhangshi's arm swung over, her eyes suddenly turned cold. She reached out her left hand, grabbed the old witch's wrist, and while the old witch was stunned, her right hand struck her face like lightning.

"Clap clap-"

After hitting the right side, hit the left side.

"Clap clap-"

Zhao Yan used great force, hitting the old hag so hard she screamed and swayed from side to side, but she couldn't break free from Zhao Yan's grasp.

After slapping her countless times, Zhao Yan vented her anger and threw Yang Zhangshi into the yard like trash.

Yang Zhangshi was beaten until her face was bruised and swollen, with blood all over her nose and mouth. Her already small, triangular eyes were now forced to squint into slits.

She sat on the ground, her eyes filled with venom as she looked at Zhao Yan, her teeth itching with hatred.

"You...you just wait! How dare you hit your mother-in-law! I'll divorce you, you vicious woman!"

Whoops.

Zhao Yan couldn't wait to leave, and said nonchalantly, "Okay, hurry up and write the letter of divorce, I'll wait here."

"you--"

Yang Zhangshi was only trying to scare Zhao Yan.

She's an idiot; without the Yang family's protection, she simply couldn't survive.

To her surprise, Zhao Yan not only responded to her words, but also spoke them clearly and articulately, completely different from her previous taciturn and silent self.

Looking at it, it's like suddenly not being stupid anymore.

"W-what did you say?" she asked uncertainly.

Zhao Yan was impatient and glanced at her casually.

"Stop talking nonsense! Didn't you say you were going to divorce me? Hurry up and find someone to write the divorce papers."

Now Yang Zhangshi was certain: the seemingly foolish wife she had spent two taels of silver to marry for her third son had suddenly become intelligent!

She suddenly screamed, "Who are you? You're not Zhao Yan!"

Zhao Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and she said with a smirk, "Don't you know whether I'm Zhao Yan or not? If you hadn't pushed me down, would I have hit my head?"

"However, I have to thank you for that push. If you hadn't pushed me and made me hit my head, I would still be mentally impaired."

Only then did Madam Yang recall that a couple of days ago, when she was about to sell Yang Xiaomi, Zhao Yan came over and started a struggle with her. During the struggle, she did push Zhao Yan.

After that, Zhao Yan went crazy, chasing her all over the village with a wood-chopping knife.

No wonder.

No wonder she hasn't seen Zhao Yan and her daughter out for meals these past two days, and she hasn't seen them at all.

It turns out it's not stupid anymore; it can find food on its own.

But when she thought about what Zhao Yan had done to her earlier, she was immediately filled with anger.

"You idiot, Zhao Yan! You're not stupid anymore, are you? You beat me up like this! You—you—"

"What's wrong with me? Huh?"

Zhao Yan blinked her peach blossom eyes and asked deliberately.

Yes, she did it on purpose.

Who told Yang Zhangshi to be so inhumane?

It's not excessive for her to teach the wicked mother-in-law a lesson on behalf of the original owner.

Yang Zhangshi's tiny, bean-sized eyes rolled back and forth.

Zhao Yan suddenly stopped being stupid, which put her in a bit of a predicament.

He wanted to divorce her, but he was also reluctant.

Zhao Yan may look thin, but she's incredibly strong and a skilled worker.

But if I don't divorce her, she's not stupid anymore and will obviously not listen to her mother-in-law anymore.

“I’m just kidding. You are Sanlang’s lawfully wedded wife. Even though he’s gone, you still have Xiao Mi, right? As long as you two stay at home and behave yourselves, I won’t divorce you.”

Ha ha.

I knew that old hag wouldn't agree so readily.

When the original owner was mentally challenged, she did all the heavy housework.

How could that old hag let her go so easily?

Suddenly feeling disheartened, she gave the old hag a cold smile, turned around, and left.

Now that we've had our fun, it's time to pick up Xiaomi and take her home.

She had only taken a few steps when, through the window, she caught a glimpse of Wang Feng's resentful and venomous face in the west wing.

She deliberately stopped and gave Wang Feng a provocative look.

Then, she turned and walked away with a leisurely air.

"You bitch! Why didn't I just smash your head against a wall and kill you!"

Wang Feng hid in the house, staring at Zhao Yan's departing figure, gritting her teeth and growling.

Erlang still hasn't woken up.

Dr. Hu said that the wound on his leg was too deep and had not been treated in time, so he would probably get a fever that night.

When Zhao Yan caught her mother-in-law and beat her severely, she was terrified and could only hide under the window and secretly curse.

Now that she has heard Zhao Yan admit that she is no longer stupid, she dares not go out and confront Zhao Yan directly.

Even if Zhao Yan were lucid, she would still be a madwoman with brute strength.

If she wants to avenge Erlang, she will probably have to find another way.
