Chapter 72 Chen Hui returns to the village. When did that woman become so powerful?
Such rumors had been circulating for several years, so Chen Zhang was always worried and even found some folk remedies for Chen Hui, but they were all useless.
That's why he was so worried when he suddenly saw Chen Hui coming back.
Chen Hui mentioned the sad thing again, and her face suddenly looked not so good.
"I haven't been divorced yet, but his mother scolds me every day. Life is really unbearable."
Chen Zhang was both relieved and worried. Fortunately, she had not been divorced yet, otherwise how could she hold her head up in the village?
But if we continue like this, I'm afraid that day is not far away, alas...
"Is Hui'er back?"
Chen Afu didn't think too much about it and smiled warmly.
"father."
Chen Hui's eyes were blurred with tears, and she couldn't help herself when she saw her relatives.
"Is it my sister-in-law who's back? She's living well in town. Doesn't she look down on us villagers?"
A sarcastic voice was heard, and the third son's wife Zhou Lihua leaned against the door frame, looking Chen Hui up and down.
Both of them are arrogant and proud. They have quarreled many times in the past, and they are particularly jealous of each other when they meet this time.
"Which eye of yours saw me looking down on the villagers? I look down on you."
Chen Hui said unhappily that she felt that this third sister-in-law was even more annoying than the second sister-in-law.
"Hmph, what qualifications do you have to look down on me? After all, I've given birth to three children for the Chen family. What about you? You haven't even given birth to one yet. I think you'll be divorced and sent home one day."
Zhou Lihua refused to give in, and every word she said hit Chen Hui's heart, making Chen Hui so angry that her face turned red.
"Dad, Mom, look at her, she only knows how to bully me."
Chen Hui complained to the two elders, and it was obvious that she lost this round.
Chen Zhang immediately glared at Zhou Lihua coldly: "What are you talking about? You are the only lazy and greedy person in the family, and you still have the nerve to talk about Hui'er."
"Humph, I'm lazy and greedy, but who made my husband the one who earns the money? Mom, tell me, is all the money in the family earned by my husband?"
Zhou Lihua was not at all intimidated and used Chen Tong to shut the other person up.
However, when Chen Tong was mentioned, Chen Zhang's eyes suddenly turned red and she started crying.
"My poor third child, how could he be captured... It's all because of my mother's incompetence... Wuwuwu..."
Such a big thing happened in Manxiangyuan that almost everyone in Chenjia Village heard about it, and Chen Afu's family was no exception.
Knowing that Chen Tong was arrested by the police, the whole family was extremely anxious and even asked Chen Jin and Chen Daniu to go to the town today to inquire about the news.
"My husband will be fine."
As if realizing that she had said something wrong, Zhou Lihua also restrained herself and became depressed.
"Hui'er, have you heard any news about your third brother in town?" Chen Afu asked with a sigh.
Chen Hui shook her head. "Since our third brother was arrested the day before yesterday, there hasn't been any news. But don't worry too much, Mom and Dad. People in town say that the man's neck was broken." "My third brother was just an accountant. It definitely wasn't him. Once the county magistrate finds out the truth, he will definitely release them."
Chen Zhang was delighted: "Really?"
"It's almost right." Chen Hui didn't dare to guarantee it.
But with her words, the family felt a little relieved.
"By the way, Mom, I brought you some candy and snacks."
Chen Hui opened the package and handed the things to the two of them.
"I'm back now, what else do you want to buy?"
Chen Zhang looked at her with an angry look, but she couldn't suppress a smile on her face.
Chen Hui said, "I finally came back once, I can't come back empty-handed."
So Chen Zhang took out some candies and snacks and put them on a plate for the children to eat. The children from the first and third wives were very happy and surrounded Chen Hui, calling her aunt.
"Mom, do you know who I met in town today?"
"Who is it?"
"My second sister-in-law, and Xinghai." Chen Hui stared at her mother's expression: "My second sister-in-law came to my shop to order furniture, and she spent more than 30 silver coins!"
"Mom, how did she become so rich?"
Unexpectedly, both Chen Afu and Chen Zhang showed relieved smiles, and did not seem to find it strange at all.
Chen Zhang smiled and said, "Your second sister-in-law is quite successful now. Do you know potato egg pancakes and silkworm potatoes? They were made by your second sister-in-law."
"Then she made some spicy sesame oil. Recently, she has been collecting red slips. Everyone in the village follows her to make money. We all made at least one or two taels of silver from her."
Now, whenever she mentioned Xiao Ying, she would smile with satisfaction and praise her endlessly. This second daughter-in-law was really capable.
"She actually made the potatoes and the spicy sesame oil?"
Chen Hui was shocked at the time, her eyes full of disbelief.
She knew very well how popular these two things were in town. She had eaten them several times at home and they were all highly praised.
I didn't expect that it was all done by her second sister-in-law. When did that woman become so capable?
"Mom, when did she become so powerful?"
Before Chen Zhang could speak, Zhou Lihua sneered, "I said she was possessed by a demon, but no one believed me and blamed me."
Chen Zhang glared at her fiercely: "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart! How has your second sister-in-law wronged you that you have to fabricate this about her?"
Chen Hui's heart moved. Possessed by a demon? She shuddered at the thought.
"Don't listen to her nonsense. Your second sister-in-law is just a prodigal son who has turned over a new leaf."
Chen Zhang patted the back of her hand and now she would not allow anyone to say anything bad about Xiao Ying.
"Your second sister-in-law's family is still building a big house. The walls are already built. Do you want to go and take a look?"
Chen Hui was very moved, so she went out with Chen Zhang.
Seeing the huge courtyard house, she was surprised again. How much would such a big house cost?
It seems that woman really made a lot of money.
She couldn't tell whether she felt envious or jealous; this house was bigger and more luxurious than the ones in her town.
When she thought about the custom-made furniture, which was much better than the one in her home, she felt a little admiration in addition to envy and jealousy.
A woman who can do this is better than many men.
After looking at the house, they went to Xiao Ying's house. Chen Hui felt a little awkward, after all, they had just had an argument in the morning.
As soon as she entered, she was surprised to find that her sister-in-law was working there.
Xiao Ying didn't give her a cold look, and with Chen Zhang chatting and laughing, the atmosphere wasn't too awkward.
"See? Your second sister-in-law is really amazing now."
On the way back, Chen Zhang continued to praise Bu Xiaoying, with a smile on her face.
Chen Hui asked quietly, "Is it really not possessed by a demon?"
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you." Chen Zhang glared at her fiercely.
Chen Hui was extremely jealous: "Mom actually wanted to beat me for her."
"Who told you to talk nonsense? Is it easy for your second sister-in-law to raise four children alone? Xinghe and Xingyue were also redeemed by her. Don't look at her with the same eyes as before."
When Chen Zhang saw Chen Xinghe coming back, she thought it was Xiao Ying who went to redeem him.
Chen Hui curled her lips. Even though she really admired him in her heart, she didn't want to admit it.
