Without saying a word, Jiang Xue walked up to Xie Xiaotian and slapped her hard across the face. "I'll teach you a lesson for spewing filth. I'll not only hit her, I'll hit you too."
Still not satisfied, Jiang Xue slapped Xie Xiaotian again, leaving her cheeks red with blood.
Xie Xiaotian covered her face, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets, every hair on her body filled with confusion.
My cousin actually dared to slap her.
The cousins used to be very close, but ever since the younger cousin, Jiang Xue, married Ji Chen, the two have never spoken to each other again.
Knowing she was in the wrong, her cousin remained timid and hesitant in front of her, feeling ashamed to face her.
Jiang Xue squinted at her delicate and pretty cousin.
Her bright, sparkling eyes are truly endearing, and her skin and figure are both excellent.
"Why do you always stir up trouble between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law? Are you in such a hurry to marry into this family?"
As more and more people gathered outside the bamboo fence, Xie Xiaotian's eyes darted around, and her face turned a mixture of red and blue.
She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists tightly, but her tone lacked any real confidence as she stammered, "You...you...talk nonsense! It's clearly you who are shameless, breaking your mother-in-law's things and hitting her. Everyone, be the judge, what kind of daughter-in-law is this?"
Seeing that Xie Xiaotian was no pushover, Jiang Xue said coldly, "What kind of wife am I? Who are you to judge? You're so nosy. Are you some kind of mistress kept by the Ji family?"
Xie Xiaotian's ears burned with anger at those words.
Jiang Xue picked up the ladle from the ground and walked slowly to the vat filled with pig feed.
"You're spouting nonsense! It was clearly you..." Xie Xiaotian covered her blood-red face, trembling with anger.
Before Xie Xiaotian could finish speaking, Jiang Xue scooped up a ladle of pig feed, rushed to Xie Xiaotian, and grabbed her hair.
Without saying a word, he poured the rotten pig feed over Xie Xiaotian's head.
"I'll teach you to keep talking."
Jiang Xue turned to Liu Aiyue and said, "We can get a divorce anytime, don't make such a fuss. Also, those few acres of land should be returned, I will definitely return them to Ji Chen."
Liu Aiyue swallowed hard. This woman seemed a bit off.
She said firmly and calmly, "You said it yourself, once my son comes back, you'd better go and get a divorce. Don't even think about trying anything funny."
“I mean what I say.” Jiang Xue slammed the ladle down at Liu Aiyue’s feet.
Looking at the gourd that had hit her foot, Liu Aiyue was very indignant: "When you leave, don't even think about taking a single needle or thread from my house."
"If you keep nagging, believe me, you'll be the next one getting splashed?"
Liu Aiyue shuddered in fright, her wide eyes meeting Jiang Xue's fierce gaze.
Liu Aiyue immediately chickened out. She had no choice but to swallow her pride and led the disheveled Xie Xiaotian into the east room.
Jiang Xue knew that the original owner had gone a bit too far in her daily life. She even made her younger brother from her own family farm the few acres of land that her husband's family had allocated to her.
The husband's salary is used to subsidize his wife's family every month, which is no different from a bottomless pit.
Everything of value in the house was taken by the bride's family, including the two thermos flasks used for the wedding.
She pursed her lips, feeling a headache coming on, and decided to make the best of it.
Since God has given her a second chance at life, shouldn't she cherish it even more?
Without hesitation, she went back to her room to shower, change clothes, and clean the house.
She changed her shoes, grabbed a burlap sack, and went back to her parents' home to collect everything that was due.
Furthermore, the original owner had given so much money to her family, both inside and out, so she didn't ask them for the money back.
Finding them a place to stay shouldn't be difficult; consider it as paying rent in advance.
Anyway, my family home is at the foot of the mountain at the very end of the village, where my grandmother lived in a small, dilapidated mud-brick house.
First, find a place to settle down, then think about getting rich.
"Woof woof...woof!" A big yellow dog darted out of the yard.
"Dahuang, don't bark, your sister is back." Jiang Xue stepped forward and patted Dahuang's head.
"Oh, Xiaoxue's back? Have you eaten yet?" A middle-aged woman of average build, wearing a plaid top and navy blue trousers, hurriedly stepped forward to greet her.
Xie Chunmei frowned. Xiaoxue had never returned empty-handed before, but today she came back with an empty sack.
"Yeah, I haven't eaten yet." Jiang Xue smiled at Xie Chunmei.
Jiang Xue was open and honest, without any of the original owner's deliberate flattery or fawning. She sat on the octagonal stool and waited for everyone to arrive before getting straight to the point.
For Jiang Xue, time is for creating wealth, not for wasting.
Xie Chunmei cheerfully handed the enamel mug to Jiang Xue, saying, "You eat first, and you take your brother to plant bok choy in the vegetable garden behind the house."
"Call them back." Jiang Xue opened the enamel mug, which contained a large vat of water with a soft-boiled egg floating on top.
Jiang Xue, who had been busy for so long without eating, took a couple of sips of the slightly sweet soup.
"Is it money being delivered? Just give it to me." Xie Chunmei's eyes were practically overflowing with greed as she stared at Jiang Xue's pocket.
"If you don't have money to send them, tell them to come back. We have something to discuss."
She took another sip of soup and was about to scoop up the soft-boiled egg with a spoon.
"What are you eating for? You don't even know how to help your own family out, yet you have the nerve to eat."
The soft-boiled egg, which was about to be eaten, "clinked" into a large vat of water.
Jiang Xue had seen snobbish people before, but she had never seen anyone this snobbish.
"Have I given them enough already? Call them back; we need to sort things out today."
Xie Chunmei's gentle gaze instantly turned sharp and sarcastic.
She pointed at Jiang Xue's nose and yelled, "If you don't pay me every month, I'll report Ji Chen for being a pervert and raping my daughter."
Jiang Xue's mouth dropped open, speechless beyond words. She instantly understood why the original owner of this body had been giving them money every month to help them out.
