Finally, she heard what she wanted to hear, and Fang Yan asked anxiously, "What did she say?"
However, Aunt Wang choked on her own breath because she spoke too quickly.
"Cough cough cough..." Aunt Wang coughed several times and then caught her breath before saying, "Your mother-in-law was touching her round belly with tears on her face. It looked like she was talking to herself, saying, 'It's all fate.'"
Fang Yan: ...
This mother-in-law is quite adept at using metaphysics.
"Huh, what does that mean?" Fang Yan blinked, completely bewildered.
Aunt Wang looked around and, finding no one, leaned close to Fang Yan and whispered, "I thought she was being bullied by Old Wang Zhang before she was even married. I even comforted her, saying that now that she's in the Zhang family, she should just live a good life from now on."
Fang Yan: "And then?"
"Then your mother-in-law cried even harder," Aunt Wang said innocently.
Fang Yan: ...
Could Xue Wanxue stop crying even harder?
Perhaps at that time, Xue Wanxue was even more distressed because of marrying Zhang Laowu.
You even advised her to live a good life with Zhang Laowu...
Fang Yan made this guess because Zhang Jizhou had said that his mother was of high character and would never marry the man who bullied her just because she had been bullied before marriage.
Therefore, she guessed that Xue Wanxue must have had other things on her mind at that time.
Her statement, "It's all fate," likely contains a hidden meaning.
Aunt Wang couldn't recall anything else about Xue Wanxue at the moment.
They didn't say anything more and parted ways.
"I'll walk you to the end of the alley and watch you walk back."
Because of what happened with Zhang Laowu earlier, Aunt Wang was still worried.
Fang Yan was touched by her concern, but still held her back, "Aunt Wang, Zhang Laowu has already gone home. No one else in our village will bully me."
Besides, there's also Qibei.
Qibei knew that Fang Yan needed it to step in and save face, so it jumped up immediately.
When it stands upright, it's about 1.56 meters tall, very robust.
Even the furry kids know that this is a way to show off their strength.
Little Fish clapped his hands excitedly, "Qibei, you're so tall! You're amazing!"
"Wow! Qibei is really tall when it stands up. If it wanted to pounce on someone, no one could escape."
Aunt Wang was also shaken by what she saw. Fortunately, she and Fang Yan had a good relationship now, and Qi Bei treated their family very politely.
Seeing that Xiaoyuzai was becoming more and more like a child, Aunt Wang was genuinely happy. "You really know how to raise children. Look how well you've raised Xiaoyuzai. He's becoming more and more lively and active, and he's getting better and better looking."
"Kids, when they have friends to play with, they can play all day long and don't even need to eat."
Fang Yan also felt that Xiao Yuzai's personality was gradually becoming more cheerful.
He became even more lively after Qibei arrived.
“Aunt Wang, you should go back quickly. It’s only a few steps away, and there are people in every household right now. Zhang Laowu and his gang wouldn’t be so bold as to harm us, mother and son, in the village.”
Fang Yan finally persuaded Aunt Wang to go home, and she took Xiaoyuzai and Qibei home with her.
When they arrived at the door, Zhang Zongde's grandson called Xiaoyuzai over to play together.
"Qibei, come with Little Fish and protect the children, okay?" Fang Yan instructed Qibei a few times, and then let it go play with her.
She went home and quickly slipped into the kitchen to braise pork head and intestines.
Then pack the boxed mooncakes into boxes, and pack the egg yolk pastries into small boxes as well.
Meanwhile, as soon as Zhang Laowu got home, he saw Big Fatty rolling around on the ground again, shouting, "I don't care, I don't care, you have to get me a dog like Little Fish!"
Huang Hongmei coaxed her sweetheart from the side, "Raising such a big animal would take up a lot of food, okay? Be good, okay? Mom will catch you a kitten to raise."
"No! I said no, and that means no!" The chubby boy threw a tantrum, rolling around on the ground. "If you dare to bring the kitten here, I'll kill it right here!"
Li Ermei watched the chubby boy rolling around on the floor in their room and listened to his words, feeling a wave of fear wash over her.
She asked Gao Dashu in a low voice, "If we don't separate the family, with this ancestor like this, will our family really have a way to survive in the future?"
"Divide the family property? How? I'm not as capable as the third brother, they won't agree," Gao Dashu said weakly.
Li Ermei's eyes reddened with anger. "You're always like this. You don't even dare to mention dividing the family property. They threatened me with the children, telling me to go to Lao San's family and say those things, but you didn't dare to stand up and say a word."
Tall Tree, are you even a man?
"You can't even protect your wife and children, what kind of man are you?"
"Keep your voice down! Are you afraid my mom and the others outside won't hear you?" Gao Dashu was terrified, afraid that Li Ermei's voice was too loud and that the people outside would hear it.
Just then, Zhang Laowu entered the room. Before he could even put down his hoe, he saw the big fat boy rolling around on the ground again. He frowned deeply and asked, "What's wrong now?"
"A dog! I want a dog! I want that bastard's dog!" The fat boy got angrier and angrier.
In the past, he could take anything from that bastard whenever he wanted.
Now, that bastard has so many good things, while I haven't been able to get any of his good things for a long time.
So he simply stopped asking for a dog that looked exactly like Little Fish.
And it's that dog that Little Fish wants!
"It's just a dog, isn't it? Is it worth making you roll around on the ground like this? Get up." Old Zhang put the hoe aside and said to Big Fatty.
"You said that everything that little bastard owns is mine, and even the little bastard's people will have to listen to me and earn money to support me from now on. Dad, what I want is that little bastard's dog. Can you take it from me?" The big fat boy obediently sat up from the ground and asked Zhang Laowu.
Old Zhang didn't disappoint him, nodding at him, "Yes, everything over there will be yours, including that little brat and that dog."
"You're not suggesting that I and the eldest son's family go to the third son's family to ask for that dog again, are you?"
Seeing Zhang Laowu's confidence, Huang Hongmei assumed he was planning to have her and Li Ermei go to Fang Yan's house to ask for the money again. So she whispered to him, "That little bitch has gotten bolder now. She won't give it to you."
Also, the families next to her house are all on good terms with her. If we go to their houses, they'll definitely speak up for her, and we definitely won't get the dog. Otherwise, how about we think of a way to catch that dog?
