Since Jiang Tangtang had said so, the two of them didn't refuse anymore. They took the bananas Jiang Tangtang gave them and returned to their own resting place with smiles.
Watching the two of them deliver firewood to Jiang Tangtang and even get some wild fruit in return, Lu Cuilan was furious and cursed them angrily, "Sycophants!"
Grandma Fang looked at the things Lei and Chen were carrying and felt envious. She said to Lu Cuilan, "Your sister-in-law is stupid. There's a drought here, and there's dry firewood everywhere."
Gathering firewood is easy enough, isn't it? The two of them brought her two bundles of dry firewood, and she gave them all this wild fruit in return. You, her own aunt, didn't get a single benefit from it.
Lei Erniang spat at Lu Cuilan and cursed, "A whole family of shameless people, I spit on them!"
Chen Chunxiang said sarcastically, "They're still better than some people who don't give anything but want to take this and that from others, and then they still want more. Even a lion's mouth isn't as big as hers. It would be foolish to associate with someone like that!"
Although no names were mentioned, everyone could understand who was being referred to.
Grandma Fang was so angry she was panting, and she cursed, "You two sluts!"
Lei Erniang spat and said, "You're not as shameless as your family. You're a whole bunch of shameless sluts who can't even stay still while you're being exiled, trying to seduce men."
Lu Cuilan puffed out her chest like a rooster and shrieked, "Who's seducing men? I'll tear your mouth apart!"
“Everyone knows who is immoral, I’m not slandering you.” Lei Erniang wanted to talk about Fang Peiru, but Chen Chunxiang stopped her.
She winked at Lei Erniang, who then realized she didn't know what the Lu family's plans were.
She might feel relieved to yell about Fang Peiru's situation now, but it could potentially ruin things for the Lu family.
Lu Cuilan lunged forward, trying to grab Lei Erniang.
Lei Erniang was no pushover. She shoved the banana leaf in her hand into Chen Chunxiang's arms, rolled up her sleeves, and said, "Come on! I've wanted to teach you a lesson for a long time. I only let it go before because of my fourth brother. Now that my fourth brother is gone and our two families are no longer related, let's have a good fight and settle all the scores from the past."
Her demeanor made Lu Cuilan feel uneasy, and she couldn't help but look at Fang Mulin.
Lei Erniang sneered, "What do you mean by 'men'? It's not like you're the only one with men. I have men too. Why don't you call all the men from your Fang family, and I'll call all the men from my Song family, and we'll have a good fight, and then the feud between our two families will be over."
Zhu Dong'e immediately stepped forward and said, "Second Sister Lei, don't drag us into your feud. We separated a long time ago."
Wang Qiuju also said, "That's right, it's her daughter who is heartless and lacks virtue. It has nothing to do with us. My daughter is not like hers, so shameless."
Fang's eldest sister-in-law said, "You must not compare her daughter with ours in the future, lest you ruin my daughter's reputation."
...
The Fang family's sisters-in-law took turns distancing themselves from Lu Cuilan and even joined outsiders in criticizing Fang Peiru, making Lu Cuilan feel both angry and ashamed.
Lu Cuilan, disregarding her fight with Lei Erniang, turned to her sisters-in-law and scolded, "Don't be so mean. My daughter is engaged to that Song family boy, and they haven't even gotten engaged yet. Does that mean that if that Song family boy dies young, my daughter has to be a widow for him? I don't believe your daughters would encounter such a thing. You should all make your daughters be widows for him and never remarry."
“Hey junior sister-in-law, don’t curse my daughter. My daughter isn’t like your Peiru, who’s cursed to death right after we started our engagement.”
Lu Cuilan almost fainted from anger. If her daughter were to be branded as a jinx, how would she ever find a husband?
What's even more infuriating is that the person who said this wasn't an outsider, but her sister-in-law.
Watching the Fang family members tearing each other apart, Lei Erniang smiled sarcastically, rolled up her sleeves, and said, "I think you should settle your own family matters first. I'll head back now. If you're not satisfied, you can come find me."
After Lei Erniang finished speaking, she took the banana fruit from Chen Chunxiang's hand, turned around gracefully, and left.
Lu Cuilan was so angry she almost vomited blood. She hysterically yelled at Fang Mulin, "Fang Mulin, are you dead? Just stand by and watch people bully your wife like this?"
Before Fang Mulin could speak, she pointed at Fang's other brothers and said, "And look at these people in your family! What are they? Even if we've separated, we're still connected by blood. I've never seen anyone so eager to undermine their own family. What good will it do you if we're in trouble? A bunch of idiots, the wife is stupid, and the man in charge is stupid too. A whole family of idiots."
Lu Cuilan immediately launched into a tirade against the entire Fang family, and the Fang family was not about to back down.
As a result, the Fang family was in an uproar once again.
When the people of Dawan Village saw this, they all shook their heads. In other villages, people fleeing famine were barely alive, and no one would say a word for half a day. But in their village, everyone was more spirited than the last.
There was that spoiled and willful young wife of the Lu family, who made a fuss a hundred and twenty times a day, as if she had inexhaustible energy.
Then there were the Fang family's wives, who were always causing trouble, having a small fight every three days and a big fight every two days. I don't know where they got the energy, they were always making a ruckus.
Meanwhile, Jiang Tangtang, whom the villagers were thinking about, began her day of spoiled and willful behavior once again.
Actually, she was surrounded by wolves today, and originally planned to restrain herself and put aside the task of gaining character points for the time being.
However, after Lu Shiyan and Li Shi returned from their conversation, he told her that she didn't need to force herself.
Jiang Tangtang felt this was an implication, meaning that she could completely ignore these refugees and continue to do what she liked.
Since the male lead has said so, she will accept it without hesitation.
And so, everyone witnessed this scene.
Jiang Tangtang had Lu Shiyan's eldest and second daughters-in-law running around in circles, finally managing to cook the wild vegetables according to her instructions. She only took one bite before snuggling into Lu Shiyan's arms with a pitiful expression, "Husband, I don't want wild vegetables, I want meat..."
Lu Shiyan's ears turned red as he helped her sit down. "Sit down and speak properly. Don't act like you have no backbone."
Jiang Tangtang sat up with his help, but she looked like she didn't have many bones left. She said coquettishly, "I'm hungry and I don't have any strength. I need to eat meat to have strength. Husband, give me some meat."
Lu Shiyan's ears turned bright red, and he stood up and said, "I'm going hunting in the mountains."
Jiang Tangtang also made a request, "I don't want to eat sparrows anymore. Sparrows don't have any meat, they're all bones. I want to eat rabbit meat, cold pot rabbit, braised rabbit, spicy rabbit, ah! I really want to eat rabbit."
