"You still say it's not you!" Zhou Jinrui was so angry that he took off his shoes and was about to hit Zhou Zhanpeng.
"It's me! I asked my son to change the laxatives. If you want to hit me, hit me."
When Li Xiaoxia saw Zhou Jinrui was about to hit her son, she immediately rushed over and held Zhou Zhanpeng in her arms, "Don't be afraid, my darling, mother won't let your father hit you."
"Li Xiaoxia, what did you say?" Zhou Jinrui initially thought it was just a child's curiosity, and he never thought that it was his wife who planned it.
"I just don't like Ye Wangshu. Why can she do nothing and do whatever she wants?"
Li Xiaoxia stared at Ye Wangshu fiercely with a fierce look, as if she wanted to bite a piece of flesh off her.
People in the village eat early, and now it gets dark late.
Many people saw the little fat man and his family come to the Zhou family to apologize, and naturally they also saw the Zhou family's farce clearly.
"This eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhou family is really no good. She's asking the child to replace the laxative. If she gets angry and replaces it with rat poison, it could be fatal!"
"They say it's hard to be a sister-in-law. If I had a sister-in-law like this, I would have to separate the family immediately."
"How can there be such a bad-hearted person!"
“…”
Listening to the whispers outside the door, Zhou Jinrui felt embarrassed and turned back into the house.
Hearing the noise of the person outside the door, Li Xiaoxia felt ashamed. She got up and went back to her room to pack her clothes.
"Mom, where are you going?"
Zhou Zhanpeng followed Li Xiaoxia back to the room and saw Li Xiaoxia packing clothes. He immediately hugged Li Xiaoxia's waist to stop her from moving.
"Son, let me go. I'm going to your grandma's house to hide. If anyone asks you, just say you gave me the laxative. Don't say you put it in the food, okay?"
Zhou Zhanpeng nodded while crying, but he refused to let go of her hand, "Mom, please don't leave me!"
Listening to her son's cries, Li Xiaoxia's eyes also moistened. "Son, you have to know that your last name is Zhou. Everything in this house will be yours from now on. You can't leave."
Zhou Zhanpeng nodded in confusion and sniffed, "Then mother, when will you come back?"
"Mom will be back when the time comes. Go back and have some food. There's so much meat! Don't let your uncle and aunt take it for granted."
"Um."
Zhou Zhanpeng nodded and left the room, looking back every few steps.
"Where is your mother?" Zhou Jinrui looked unhappy when he saw his son.
"Mom is packing her things and says she's going back to my grandma's house."
After hearing this, Zhou Jinrui became even more furious. "Go back! Let her go back. Once she goes back, don't ever enter our Zhou family again."
Zhou Zhanpeng looked up at Zhou Jinrui, wiped his tears, but said nothing more.
"Both families' children made mistakes, so you don't have to blame yourself. If you have to say who made mistakes, our family made more mistakes."
Zhou's mother patted the fat boy's mother's hand, her face full of vicissitudes.
Zhou Xiaohong watched from the side, feeling very nervous and uncomfortable.
After the fat boy and his family left, Li Xiaoxia also came out of the house with her bag.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?" Zhou Xiaohong looked at Li Xiaoxia holding the bundle and immediately came over.
Zhou's mother knocked on Li Xiaoxia's door and returned to her room with a disappointed look on her face.
"Little sister, I have done such an embarrassing thing. I must leave for a while." Li Xiaoxia looked into the house with a weak face, then pulled Zhou Xiaohong aside.
"Little sister, you said the second wife said so nice things, but what did she do? She said she would take care of Mom's body, but where did she go? She also made a lot of trouble. She spent a lot of money these days."
"Second sister-in-law is going too far. She clearly promised something, but she never does it." Zhou Xiaohong pursed her lips, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes. "Our family is really broke, but she still dresses up so beautifully and buys so many things every day."
"She's got nothing on her shoulders. She might have hooked up with some rich guy! Little sister, you have to keep an eye on her at home. Don't bring shame to our family, okay?"
Zhou Xiaohong nodded and looked at Li Xiaoxia reluctantly, "Sister-in-law, when will you come back?"
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon. These days, I'll have to leave the housework to you."
Li Xiaoxia patted Zhou Xiaohong's shoulder with reluctance, then turned and left.
The Zhou family doesn't have much daily work to do, and most of it is done by Li Xiaoxia and Zhou Xiaohong, who are close to each other on weekdays.
"I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be such a person. She actually got laxatives to frame you. Luckily the pharmacist arrived in time."
Zhou Jincong looked at Ye Wangshu with a calm face, and for a moment he didn't know what this man was thinking.
"It's okay. Good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished. There are still many people in this world who can distinguish right from wrong."
Ye Wangshu thought about it for a while, but ultimately did not tell Li Xiaoxia her real conspiracy.
After all, she couldn't explain why those people were fine, and where the laxative in Li Xiaoxia came from.
"Second sister-in-law, isn't this a bit too much food? We don't have much money at home, it's not good for you to spend it like this."
"Second sister-in-law, there are so many things to do at home, you can't just do nothing!"
"Second sister-in-law, you can't clean your clothes by washing them like this!"
"Second sister-in-law, you..."
For several days in a row, Zhou Xiaohong kept finding fault for no reason.
Ye Wangshu didn't take it to heart. She also learned to do some of the work, and if she didn't do it well, Zhou Xiaohong would criticize her.
Zhou Jincong got so angry every time he saw this that he hated to death the idea of recognizing Zhou Xiaohong as his sister.
At night, Zhou Jincong looked at Ye Wangshu with a distressed expression and held him in his arms.
Holding Ye Wangshu's slightly red hand, Zhou Jincong blew on it with a distressed look on his face, "Really don't you need to talk to mom and ask her to take care of my younger sister? She keeps ordering you around every day without much ability herself."
"Your hands are so delicate, how can you do so much work? Why don't you keep the work and wait for me to come back to help you?"
Ye Wangshu chuckled and leaned lightly into Zhou Jincong's arms, "Husband, do you know what you look like now?"
"Like what?" A look of doubt flashed across Zhou Jincong's face, but his big hand was rubbing Ye Wangshu's red hand.
"Like a tyrant emperor, or a tyrant emperor bewitched by a demon concubine. From now on, the emperor will not attend the morning court. This is probably what they mean by you."
Ye Wangshu raised his hand and pinched Zhou Jincong's nose, then said, "My little sister is probably just a rebellious teenager. The more I control her, the more stubborn she becomes. And she's right. As a member of the family, I can't just watch you guys busy yourself while I do nothing!"
"But seeing you like this, it hurts me."
Zhou Jincong frowned slightly, then looked at Ye Wangshu seriously, "I wish I could be a tyrant. You don't have to do anything, just enjoy yourself."
"It's not impossible, but it requires the efforts of our comrades!"
Looking back at the intelligence of later generations, it has indeed helped people free their hands and made many household chores much simpler.
