"Qin Zheng?!"
Everyone was even more surprised. How could Guo Youcai's marriage be related to Qin Zheng?
Guo Laoda frowned and said, "Second brother, don't talk nonsense. We can't afford to offend Qin Zheng right now!"
Guo Lao Er immediately waved his hand.
He was so drunk he was staggering, slurring, "N-nothing, I'm not talking nonsense!"
He heard it from someone at a dinner party. He had been invited to drink at noon that day, and there happened to be someone at the table who was from Old Ma's village. That person excitedly told him about it and even used the two chickens as an excuse to mock and humiliate him!
Guo Lao Er's cheeks, already flushed from drinking, turned even redder as he recalled the scene of being ridiculed by everyone.
He gritted his teeth and pointed to the sky, swearing, "That Qin Zheng! He's the one who went to Old Ma's house and managed to sow discord between Xiu'er and our Youcai! I... I will definitely not let him get away with this!"
"This, this..."
Old Guo was puffing on his pipe, looking worried. The Qin family had already moved out of his house, so why were they still making things difficult for him?
Li Xiuying gritted her teeth, "That ingrate, I'll tear him apart!"
She rolled up her sleeves, gritted her teeth, and rushed outside. Her fierce appearance startled the Guo family members.
Over here, Ye Yun was leisurely basking in the sun in a rocking chair.
Suddenly she saw a group of six or seven people coming from the bottom of the slope, led by the menacing Li Xiuying!
She was taken aback.
Suddenly she remembered that she had been to Old Ma's house before. Her eyes widened in an instant, and she got up, grabbed her old bicycle, and rode away!
"Ye Yun! Don't run away!"
Ye Yun hadn't ridden her old bicycle far when she heard Guo Youcai shouting angrily at her from behind, which scared her so much that she pedaled even harder!
LOL!
If she doesn't run, are we supposed to let her, a pregnant woman, fight against that old shrew Li Xiuying and then wait to be surrounded and beaten by five or six people?
Ye Yun rode her old bicycle very fast and soon disappeared from Li Xiuying and the others' sight.
Unable to catch up, Guo Youcai stopped on the road, clutching his stomach and panting heavily. Furious, he cursed in the direction Ye Yun had left, "Damn it! Don't you dare run away!"
"That cunning little bitch!"
Seeing Ye Yun running so fast, Li Xiuying was so angry that she gritted her teeth and rushed into the yard, grabbed a hoe from the wall, and was about to smash the house!
Knowing that Ye Yun now had a skill in making mung bean cakes, she rushed straight into the kitchen.
Before she could even make a move, Aunt Tian rushed into the house and shouted to stop her, "Li Xiuying! Put down that hoe! If you break anything here, you'll have to pay for it! And you don't have much to pay for!"
"Pah! I don't care if she pays compensation or not!"
Li Xiuying completely ignored Aunt Tian and raised her hoe to smash the earthen pot where Ye Yun was making mung bean cakes, clearly showing that she was going to throw caution to the wind!
"Stop her!"
Seeing that Li Xiuying was really going to mess things up, Old Guo quickly shouted to Guo Laoda.
With a stern face, Guo Laoda rushed over quickly, grabbed the hoe from Li Xiuying's hand, and pulled her out of the kitchen shed. Now, there was nothing in his house that Li Xiuying could punish him with!
Li Xiuying was still unwilling to give up and struggled, saying, "Why are you pulling me like that!"
"If I don't pull you, what else can you punish us for? We'll lose our grain! We'll lose our harvest! What else can you punish us for!" Old Guo roared, unable to contain himself any longer.
This was the first time Li Xiuying had ever heard her stepson yell at her like that, and her lips trembled slightly.
The eldest daughter-in-law went up to comfort her husband, then glared at Li Xiuying with a dark face, "Mother, if you want to smash things, you can smash them all, but let me tell you, before you smash them, write a letter severing ties with your family, or you'll drag our whole family down with you and get punished! Otherwise, you can divorce my father!"
Upon hearing the words "divorced," Li Xiuying was suddenly startled.
To be fair, no matter how strong she is, she couldn't help but feel a chill and fear from the bottom of her heart when she heard the word "divorce".
...
Ye Yun rode her old bicycle all the way to Old Ma's house in the next village.
"Oh! What brings the Ye family girl here?"
Old Ma was making tofu at home with his wife when they saw her arrive. They happily invited her into the kitchen and ladled out some freshly made soy milk for her to drink.
Ye Yun took a sip and found that the fermented bean juice, which had not been mixed with any other ingredients, was actually a little bitter.
She couldn't eat anything right now, let alone this soy milk. She took a couple of sips, then put it aside and asked about Xiuer and Guo Youcai.
Old Ma smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Xiu'er has already started going on blind dates these past few days."
"How is it?"
"It's alright." Old Ma said with a hint of bitterness, but he was still very pleased. He joked casually, "Because of what happened with the Guo family, Xiu'er's reputation has been somewhat affected. Some people who came were interested, while others were not, but overall they were all better than the Guo family. At least they wouldn't only give us two chickens, right?"
The mute old woman smiled and pointed to Xiuer's room, then to the front door.
The little girl translated, "Sister, my aunt went on a blind date yesterday. The guy was tall and quite handsome. They went out to play today!"
"I see."
Ye Yun smiled and agreed. It seems that Xiu'er has moved on quite quickly.
Old Ma looked kindly at the young girl talking to Ye Yun, but soon his gaze shifted to Ye Yun herself, and he asked in surprise, "Girl, why did you come here? Why are you alone?"
Ye Yun smiled.
You can't exactly say that your former in-laws chased after you, can you?
Since she was already there, Ye Yun didn't plan to go back just yet. Taking advantage of a break, she said, "Grandpa, I'm here today to tell you the recipe for stinky tofu. Why don't you try it out first?"
