Bao Min didn't say what happened next, but Cai Damei knew. There would definitely be a third time.

"Why involve outsiders in your own affairs?" Cai Damei advised Bao Min, saying that for the sake of his obsession, he was marrying an older widow and having to take care of her daughter-in-law and three grandchildren.

To be honest, Cai Damei really thinks Bao Min is crazy.

“Madam, you can’t say that,” Bao Min retorted to Cai Damei. “If I marry you, I will not only have grandchildren, but also sons and daughters-in-law. Wouldn’t it be wonderful for the whole family to be reunited?”

Bao Min's eyes welled up with tears as she spoke. "I was raised by my older brother and sister-in-law from a young age, without parents. I was very envious of other families. I wished I could have a family like that."

"How can you be so sure that Jiang Mingzhe will marry Yunniang?" Cai Damei had never imagined that Ye Yunniang would marry Jiang Mingzhe.

"Madam, I am a man. I know what it's like for a man to fall in love with a woman."

As Bao Min spoke, he took Cai Damei's hand and placed the wolf fang necklace in her palm. "Madam, would you please give me a chance to take care of you?"

Cai Damei's eyes were fixed on the wolf fang necklace on Bao Min's hand, and she didn't notice the last thing he said. When she heard "Is it good or not?", she subconsciously answered, "Yes."

"That's great." Bao Min hugged Cai Damei again.

“No, I won’t agree.” Cai Damei realized what was happening and denied it.

Bao Min pressed his lips against hers. "Madam, please don't say anything that will upset me, okay?"

Bao Min spoke gently, but the coldness in his eyes startled Cai Damei.

Cai Damei belatedly realized that the person she had been refusing was the prefect, who held the power of life and death over her family.

Bao Min pressed his lips to Cai Damei's lips, "Madam, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

“My lord,” Cai Damei opened her mouth.

This gave Bao Min a chance.

boom--

Cai Damei felt like her head was about to explode.

"Mother," Ye Yunniang called out worriedly.

Cai Damei snapped out of her daze, "What's wrong?"

"Mother, your face is so red. Do you have a fever? I'll go find Doctor Tong." Ye Yunniang said, heading to call Doctor Tong.

“No need,” Cai Damei said, pulling Ye Yunniang’s hand. “Don’t go to the doctor.”

"But,"

"obedient."

"Alright, no need to see a doctor." Ye Yunniang sat back down.

Cai Damei forced herself not to think about Bao Min.

"Yunniang, I want to discuss something with you."

"I agree."

“I haven’t even said what it is yet,” Cai Damei laughed.

"No matter what, I promise you, Mother. You can make the decision, Mother." Ye Yunniang maintained the same attitude; she believed that Cai Damei would never harm her.

Cai Damei was satisfied with Ye Yunniang's attitude.

"I want to move Jun'er's and your father's graves to Jiangcheng." The mother and daughter-in-law in Lijia Village could no longer stay there.

Li Nan's affair made it impossible for them to have any further contact with the village chief's family.

Cai Damei is thinking of moving her son's and husband's graves so that it will be more convenient to pay respects to them in the future.

"Will they agree?" Ye Yunniang worried about the people in Lijia Village.

"I will agree," Cai Damei said confidently. If she and Yunniang couldn't do it, Bao Min definitely could.

In the past few days, she has come to terms with it.

Bao Min was interested in her, so he spent some time with her. He also took the opportunity to secure some benefits for his daughter-in-law and grandsons.

As for what happens in the future, we'll talk about that later.

Two days later, Ye Yunniang, along with her child and Cai Damei, traveled to Lijia Village by horse-drawn carriage.

Unlike the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere last time, this time, both the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had somber faces.

The carriage did not go to Li Wenkuo's house, but went directly to the graves of Li Jun and Li Min.

Li Wenkuo and the elders of the Li family were all present, watching with resentment as Tong Mo directed people to dig up graves and collect bones.

“Minzi’s wife, you’ve made Minzi’s death unbearable,” a withered old man accused Cai Damei.

“Third Uncle, Minzi’s greatest concern while he’s alive is his grandson. Taking him away is the only way he can live in peace,” Cai Damei retorted.

“You, you barbarian. Li Shan, you’re the eldest in your branch. Speak up.” The withered old man said to an old man who was resting with his eyes closed.

Li Shan is the paternal uncle of Li Min and Li Wu.

Li Shan opened his eyes. "Second Uncle, Minzi is gone. Cai Shi can make all the decisions regarding his family affairs."

“You,” the withered old man pointed at Li Shan in disbelief, this was different from what he had said before.

Li Shan wasn't the most vehemently opposed, so how come he agreed after just one night?

The withered old man looked at the other elders of the Li family.

Some wanted to say something, but upon seeing a certain person, they shut their mouths.

They don't get involved in matters concerning the dead.

Tong Mo, who was directing the excavation, smiled with satisfaction. His visits to each household last night had not been in vain.

"Sister Cai, give me back my man!" a woman cried as she ran over.

The woman shouted as she attacked Cai Damei.

When Cai Damei saw the visitor, she was furious. Li Wu had not only stolen her son's belongings, but also wanted to starve her to death.

Cai Damei handed Li An, whom she was holding, to Ye Yunniang and rushed towards the woman.

He stretched out his foot, first tripping the woman Cai Hua to the ground, then punching and kicking her.

Cai Hua was being suppressed and beaten by Cai Da Mei. She struggled several times but failed to subdue Cai Da Mei. Unable to use her hands or feet, she resorted to verbal abuse.

“Cai Damei, you slut who wants men, you shameless widow, waaaah…” Cai Hua wailed, unable to speak.

"Li Min has appeared."

"It could also be that Li Jun's spirit has appeared."

These two sentences made the villagers of Lijia Village take two steps back in fear, afraid that they too would suddenly lose their ability to speak, just like Cai Hua.

Among them, the withered old man, who was being helped up, retreated the most. He wondered if the ghosts of Li Min and Li Jun were nearby.

Upon hearing this, Cai Damei's eyes lit up with joy. "Jun'er, is that you? Have you come to see your mother?"

There was no response.

Cai Damei lowered her head in disappointment.

“Sister Cai, you’ve dug up your husband’s and son’s graves, which means you’re destined to be childless. Li Jun hates you.” Cai Hua said, laughing loudly.

Cai Damei was disappointed at not being able to see her son, and ignored Cai Hua's mockery.

Ye Yunniang, who was listening nearby, couldn't bear it. She picked up a fist-sized clod of dirt and stuffed it into Cai Hua's mouth.

"Cough cough cough..." Cai Hua choked and coughed for a while, then lay on the ground and dry heaved.

Cai Hua's hand trembled as she pointed at Ye Yunniang, "You slut,"

Ye Yunniang grasped Cai Hua's hand and forcefully pried it open.

"Ah—" Cai Hua screamed.

Ye Yunniang sneered, "My family's affairs are none of the business of outsiders."

Ye Yunniang spoke first to Cai Hua, then glanced at the villagers of Lijia Village.

The villagers of the Li family, who were swept by Ye Yunniang's cold gaze, took two steps back in fear.

Ye Yunniang's fierceness frightened the villagers of the Li family.

In my memory, Ye Yunniang was a shy and timid young wife, but after two years, she has become so capable.

Cai Damei recovered and looked at the group of grave diggers who had been frightened into stopping.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and dig! Don't miss the appointed time."

Cai Damei's voice brought everyone back to reality, and they continued digging the grave.

The villagers of Li's family dared not stop them anymore.

Cai Hua was about to say something when Li Wenkuo and his men arrived and stopped her.

“Cai Hua, if you keep making trouble, your man will never be able to get out of here.”
