Chapter 906 With his brain...

Jiang Yeming was taken aback by the shout, then quickly nodded and shouted back, "I heard you!"

Song Chunxue stood up. "Kneel properly. I'll go settle you in. We'll get up early tomorrow."

“Then I’ll clear out a room so the child can sleep on the kang (heated brick bed) here. We’ll add a kang to the three rooms.” Jiang Yeming turned around while kneeling.

"Fine, I'm not sleeping on a cold kang anyway." She wasn't willing to consider others now, it would be a waste of effort.

In the end, Song Chunxue slept on one kang with her two children, Li Dazui slept on another kang, Xu Dahong and her sister slept in one room with their youngest child, and Jiang Yeming knelt on the ground, not knowing where to sleep.

Anyway, the "sleeping donkey circle" (a derogatory term for a group of people who sleep in donkeys) brought this

When the rooster crowed three times, Song Chunxue pulled her legs back, opened her eyes, got off the heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed), went outside, and washed her face with cold water to wake herself up.

Xu Dahong was already up, starting a fire in the kitchen to make egg drop soup. Xu Jiao sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), her eyes red, and she was sobbing intermittently.

Song Chunxue was so angry she wanted to kick her.

What can a coward like that do besides cause trouble?

Having lived for over eighty years, she could see right through Xu Jiao with just a glance.

As the saying goes, she can tell what a person's true intentions are just by looking at their mouth.

She casually asked Xu Dahong why she was so badly beaten and couldn't go on living. She learned that Xu Jiao's husband's family wasn't the type to mistreat their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. It was just that Xu Jiao had been taken care of by Xu Dahong since she was little, and she had a wicked heart. Now that she saw that Xu Dahong was living a good life, she always looked down on her husband and complained all day long.

No one is perfect, and Xu Jiao is considered quite opinionated among her sisters. She is not submissive to her parents and met her husband before the wedding. It was her own choice to get married.

But as life went on, he always felt inferior to others and started to have wicked thoughts.

If she hadn't accidentally caught a glimpse of Xu Jiao's gaze towards Jiang Yeming carrying a different meaning, she wouldn't have thought of it that way.

Xu Dahong is a stubborn person.

If this scourge isn't sent away, the other brothers will all have their reputations ruined by Jiang Yeming.

After all, everyone understands the difference between taking in one's wife's younger sister and abducting her.

Song Chunxue doesn't like to drink egg drop soup when she gets up early, but she drank tea and ate a boiled egg.

When she arrived at her eldest son's kitchen, she immediately noticed that he was living a very comfortable life.

The pots and pans were all made of white porcelain with colorful glaze, the eggs in the baskets were piled high, and a whole row of cabinets were filled with oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and noodles.

Even the low stools used for cooking were painted, making them comparable to the kitchens of wealthy families.

Xu Jiao stood at the kitchen doorway, picking at the small wormholes in the door frame with one hand, looking pitiful as if she was about to be chased away.

Song Chunxue stood in the kitchen, watching Xu Dahong feed the child egg drop soup with bread.

"Jiaojiao, sit down and have a bowl. My mother-in-law and your brother-in-law will definitely handle it. This can't go on forever." Xu Dahong probably sensed Song Chunxue's dissatisfaction. "Stop being stingy and come in and sit down."

Song Chunxue raised her chin and stared at Xu Jiao. If she continued to act like this, it would be hard for her not to kick her out.

If this is her child, daring to stand awkwardly at the door making such a fuss, she'd break several of them with a fire poker or a donkey whip.

How could Xu Dahong have such a sister? Xu's parents are cowards too, and it's one thing for the whole family to be cowardly, but life is always harder for cowards anyway. But it's despicable that a coward also has so many schemes; it's infuriating to watch.

No, she needed to kick the boss a couple more times to vent her anger.

Thinking this, she stepped out of the kitchen door and bumped into the eldest brother, who was brushing the dirt off his clothes as he came over.

"Mom, have you finished eating... Mmm!"

He bent over, clutching his calf, gasping for breath in pain.

"Mom, why did you kick me again?"

The dry bones in his calves were in so much pain that he couldn't hold back his tears or urinate.

Song Chunxue grabbed her eldest son's ear and dragged him outside, saying, "So you still feel pain? How come your eyes are blind?"

"Huh?" The eldest brother bent over and grabbed Song Chunxue's wrist. "Mom, be gentle, be gentle, you're going to pull my ear off."

Once outside the gate, Song Chunxue kicked him again.

"Xu Jiao is so cunning, didn't she tell you that she wanted to stay and live with you?"

"..." Jiang Yeming's face turned ashen, he was so frustrated but couldn't utter a single word.

"Speak up!"

Song Chunxue kicked his shin again, "Are you mute?"

"Ouch... Mom, my leg is bruised."

"Heh, so what if it's broken? It's useless anyway, so breaking it will save us some trouble."

The eldest brother wiped away his tears and cried, burying his head in his knees and whispering, "Although he didn't say it directly, he meant it."

"Then you still dare to cause this trouble? I think you've got some nerve, you're trying to fly to the sky!"

Song Chunxue was furious. "I should have beaten you up the moment I saw you yesterday! You son of a bitch, you're a complete idiot!"

She caught a glimpse of the whip standing in the corner, its smooth apricot wood end striking the eldest son's leg hard.

"Mother, Mother, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"

"No, you don't know you're wrong at all. You just feel insecure and are just giving me the runaround. If it weren't for the fact that you're beholden to me because you're taking my money and food, you would have already stood your ground and argued with me!"

"Mom, I didn't! I really know I was wrong, and I won't do it again!"

The leader was beaten and ran away with his head in his hands.

Song Chunxue jumped directly onto the cellar platform and slapped him hard on the back.

"You're my son, and you still think you can hide your little schemes from me? If I don't beat you until you're bedridden for half a year, you won't learn your lesson! Anyway, if I don't beat you, someone will break your legs and scold me for spoiling my son, saying you were born of a mother but not raised by one. I'll be very proud of that!"

"Ouch, ouch~ My head, Mom, my foot is broken, my leg is going to break! Have you forgotten that you're a cultivator with great strength? Waaaaah... Ouch!"

Li Dazui, who was still sleeping, was awakened by the commotion outside and quickly grabbed his clothes to go outside and see what was going on.

Seeing the boss lying on the ground pretending to be dead after being beaten, he chuckled.

The whole village came out to watch the spectacle, each person holding a steamed bun and occasionally taking a bite while laughing.

"Clang!"

Her hands were numb from the shaking, and the whip broke in two before she finally threw it to the ground.

"Phew~" She clapped her hands, her anger subsiding considerably. "Now everyone in the whole village can testify for me. I'm not stupid as a mother; I know it's my son's fault."

"..." Jiang Yeming, whose whole body ached and covered in dirt, lay on the ground, not daring to utter a sound.

Li Dazui stood by the door, "Feeling better now?"

"I'm relieved now. If he still acts like a big shot when he goes to the Xu family, I'll rip his tail off! He's just embarrassing me. He eats so well, but it's all turned into shit. I should have made him suffer more. He's living too well and has long forgotten his own worth."

She turned to look at the eldest brother, "I bet he's complaining that the others all left, and he's the only one left here. Humph, with his brains, he'd be selling himself out there and still be helping others count their money."

"How could that be? He was just confused for a moment and didn't see clearly. He definitely won't dare to do such a foolish thing next time," Li Dazui mediated, thinking to himself that this old woman's mind was quite sharp these days.
