Reborn, Lu Chuqing is held in Lu Ying's arms, far from her scummy dad. In her past life, she had a pitiable and bitter fate. In this life, she is doted on by her family, transforming into a bel...
Just then, three more women arrived outside the courtyard, chattering away before they even entered.
Wearing a dark red short-sleeved shirt, Sister Liu led the way, shouting in a loud voice, "I was wondering why it was so lively today, turns out the tycoon is back!"
These words were spoken to Liu Fengming, and the man immediately greeted him with a smile, calling out, "Sister-in-law."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Liu Ersao and Liu Wusao, who were following behind, chimed in, "We're adults, did you think we didn't see anything? Why didn't you call out to us?"
As the saying goes, three women make a drama.
Even someone as womanizing as Liu Fengming couldn't resist having his sisters-in-law all gather around him.
She forced a smile, "How could I not see them? It's been almost half a year since I last saw them, and Second Sister-in-law and Fifth Sister-in-law have become more and more eye-catching. It's hard not to see them in a crowd!"
The women were amused and giggled, thus moving on from Liu Fengming's story, and then looked at Lu Ying and the other two women beside Old Lady Liu.
Sister-in-law Liu remembered Lu Ying and her daughter. Seeing a handsome young boy standing next to them, she immediately went over to touch Lu Chengyang's face.
"Hey, where did this kid come from? It can't be some black baby that some woman had with you outside, Sixth Brother, can it?"
Lu Chengyang dodged the woman's outstretched, fat hand, his eyes filled with undisguised disdain. "I have parents, I'm not some bastard child of some man who can't control himself!"
Everyone present was stunned to hear such words coming from the mouth of a teenager.
Lu Ying was taken aback by Lu Chengyang's unbridled arguing, but said nothing.
You should say the right thing to the right person.
Zhou Yunmei, who had been ridiculed earlier, seized the opportunity to say sarcastically, "People from big cities are really capable; even a child's words can make someone choke half to death."
Liu Ersao's gaze fell on Lu Ying, who was comforting Liu Laotaipo, and a smirk appeared on her lips as she spoke in a shrill voice.
"I was wondering why this yard smelled so foul. Turns out, it's because one of the women our sixth brother didn't want has shamelessly come here!"
"Look at what she's dressed like! Divorced women are so uninhibited! If I dressed like that, I wouldn't even have the face to go back to my parents!"
Among Liu's daughters-in-law, Liu Ersao was the most jealous. She couldn't stand seeing others do better than her, and she couldn't keep her mouth shut. She would say hurtful things without hesitation and was known in the village as difficult to get along with.
This was also a deliberate attempt to embarrass Lu Ying, which is why the women finally stood together in a row, sharing their feelings.
Such scenes had been playing out since Lu Ying's first visit, but back then she was still Liu Fengming's wife, so even though they spoke harshly, they still considered Liu Fengming's feelings to some extent.
They had already heard that Liu Fengming and Lu Ying had divorced, and the unpleasant things they had been holding back were spilling out without warning.
Zhou Yunmei stood behind and smiled slightly. Someone was scolding Lu Ying for her. She didn't have to do anything and could still watch the show. It couldn't be more enjoyable!
Lu Chuqing looked at Liu Ersao, who was dark-skinned, plump, and had a flat face. In her previous life, this woman had often called her the bastard child of a vixen. Later, she died young from breast cancer, which could be considered retribution.
Now that this woman is verbally abusing her mother, she immediately stands up to speak for Lu Ying.
"The whole courtyard smells so bad because you have body odor! You stink like a ghost yourself, and you still have the nerve to slander others!"
Everyone knew that Liu Ersao had body odor, especially now that it was summer, the smell could fill the entire courtyard.
Because of this, the other women didn't like to associate with her. If they weren't there to embarrass Lu Ying, none of them would want to stand close to her.
The others seemed to be deliberately keeping their distance from her, and Zhou Yunmei, standing at the back, was even holding her nose, which showed how strong her body odor was.
Upon seeing that it was Lu Chuqing, the little girl, who was speaking, Liu Ersao stepped forward to slap the little girl.
"How dare you talk like that, you wild child? Didn't your mother teach you that children shouldn't interrupt adults?"
"Then let me teach you a lesson on behalf of your mother today!"
Just as the woman's hand was about to touch Lu Chuqing, Lu Ying raised her hand and pushed Liu Ersao away, while Lu Chengyang hurriedly pulled Xiao Tuanzi behind him to protect her.
Lu Ying glared coldly at the woman, her tone heavy, "Aren't you being a bit too nosy?"
"I only bothered to talk to you because you're Liu Fengming's sister-in-law, but if you dare to touch my daughter, I'll make sure you get the short end of the stick, even if it costs me my life!"
Seeing Lu Ying stand firm, Liu Wu Sao's eyes darted around, and she walked towards Lu Chu Qing with a smile.
"Little girl, I think your flower hair clip is quite pretty. Take it off and let your sister Xiaoyan wear it!"
Liu Xiaoyan, the third daughter in the family, is already in high school. How could she possibly wear Lu Chuqing's childish hair clip?
Liu Wu Sao was deliberately looking for an excuse to attack, and as she spoke, her hand went straight for Lu Chuqing's hair.
That action wasn't about using a clip; it was clearly an intentional attempt to pull the little girl's hair.
Lu Ying stood directly in front of the two children, blocking Liu Wusao's outstretched hand, saying, "If you like it, buy it for your daughter. You're so old, how dare you snatch someone else's daughter's hair clip?"
Liu Wu Sao was waiting for the woman to make a move. She saw the woman raise her hand to stop her arm, pretend to pull and tug at it a couple of times, then tripped and fell to the ground.
"Ouch, ouch!"
The woman screamed loudly, sat down on the ground and touched her backside, "My God! I almost fell and died!"
Lu Ying's face was pale. She hadn't exerted any force at all; the person had fallen backward on their own.
But she immediately realized that Liu Wu Sao was doing it on purpose, and said coldly, "There are so many people here watching, they can see clearly how you fell. It's just that your whole Liu family is keeping quiet, trying to extort some benefits from me."
"We're all women, some of us are quite old. Just say what you want, and I might consider it. Only people like you who can't stand up to scruples would resort to such despicable tactics!"
These words struck a nerve with the women, who instantly became enraged and stepped forward to point at Lu Ying, threatening and cursing her.
"How dare you talk like that, you filthy bitch! Don't you know whose territory this is? You dare to spout such nonsense!"
"No wonder Lao Liu insisted on divorcing you. With your slutty looks, you've probably been slept with by men all over!"
"..."
The women's voices grew increasingly shrill, regardless of whether there were children present. Their words were vulgar and offensive, all directed at and cursing Lu Ying.
Liu Fengming stood behind his sisters-in-law, seemingly frowning as he tried to persuade them, but in reality, he showed no intention of stopping them at all.
The man's eyes gleamed with pleasure as he watched Lu Ying being insulted by her sisters-in-law; he couldn't have felt more delighted.
He was always scolded or beaten by Lu Jun at the Lu family's house. He knew how he felt at the time and was determined to make Lu Ying experience the same thing.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Old Lady Liu grabbed Lu Ying's arm and pulled the woman behind her, then looked at her daughters-in-law who looked like fierce demons.
Trying to raise her voice as much as possible, she advised, "Ying brought Jingni back with her. We're all family. Arguing will only hurt our harmony!"
