Old Mrs. Xue, frightened to the point of pooping and pissing, found that the pain she expected did not come. She opened her eyes in fear and saw that the wolf was dead! It was lying at her feet.
The other wolves were shocked by this sudden move and did not move for a while.
In the tree, Xue Huan finally spoke: "Mrs. Xue, how do you feel?"
Recognizing her voice, Old Lady Xue was furious. "Little bitch! You brought me here? Let me go now, or I will—"
"What about you? Old woman, don't you understand your current situation?"
Old Mrs. Xue stopped talking abruptly. Looking at the group of wolves in front of her, and thinking of her current situation, a chill ran up from the soles of her feet and spread throughout her body.
"Hua, Hua Ni'er, I was sorry to you before. I know I was wrong. Please let me go. I will never go to your house to make trouble again." Old Mrs. Xue's teeth were chattering.
However, Xue Huan didn't hear much remorse in her words, which showed that she was not scared enough.
Sitting on the thickest branch, Xue Huan took out the melon seeds she had prepared in advance and started cracking them, looking very leisurely.
When Old Mrs. Xue heard the sound of people cracking melon seeds, she hated this damn girl so much in her heart!
Seeing that Xue Huan didn't seem to have any intention of attacking, the wolves became agitated again. This time, several wolves pounced on Old Mrs. Xue together, their sharp teeth glowing coldly in the cold moonlight.
A murderous intent was looming over her, and this time, Mrs. Xue was so frightened that she couldn't even make a sound, and her whole body was stiff.
This time, Xue Huan did not use an arrow, but pulled up the rope that tied Old Lady Xue, allowing her to narrowly escape the wolf's mouth and save her life.
…
After a night, Old Mrs. Xue narrowly escaped death several times, fainted and was splashed awake again. Her original resentment and disgust towards Xue Huan were completely replaced by fear.
This granddaughter really wants her life!
There were several times when she was almost eaten by wild beasts!
And she remained relaxed and calm from beginning to end, as if he treated her as a bug that could be crushed to death at any time and played with at will!
Realizing this, Old Mrs. Xue was really scared.
Only then did Xue Huan let her go, and a hint of paleness appeared in the sky.
She came down from the tree and looked at the dying Old Lady Xue. "Look, it would be easy for me to kill you if I wanted to, but I didn't do it. Do you know why?"
Old Mrs. Xue moved her lips, but only a faint sound came out.
After shouting all night, her voice was hoarse.
But Xue Huan didn't need her answer. "Because you are still useful. I need you to take care of the people from the first and third houses, so that they won't come to my house to cause trouble again. If you can't do that..."
She smiled slightly and did not finish the rest of her words, but Old Mrs. Xue had already heard the threat in her words.
If she doesn't take good care of the people in the first and third wives, she will take her life!
Old Mrs. Xue looked at her granddaughter in front of her as if she was meeting her for the first time. In her eyes, her beautiful face looked like an evil ghost that could take her life at any time!
Her body began to tremble uncontrollably, and she hastily assured him, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of them!"
Xue Huan didn't say anything. She only looked at actual actions.
After knocking Old Lady Xue unconscious, Xue Huan took her out of the mountain and sent her back to the house where she lived.
Without alarming anyone.
When Old Mrs. Xue suddenly woke up, looking at the familiar layout around her, she couldn't help but suspect that everything she experienced last night was a nightmare. However, when she looked at her clothes soaked in blood and sweat, she knew that everything that happened last night was not a dream at all, but really happened!
"Mom, you have to make the decision for your daughter-in-law!"
Just as Old Mrs. Xue was feeling frightened, Li rushed in.
"That little bitch actually—"
Noticing that Old Mrs. Xue was in a dishevel and emitting an unpleasant odor, Li paused and looked at her in astonishment.
Old Lady Xue knew who the "little bitch" Li was referring to. She shuddered subconsciously and grabbed a pillow and threw it at her, "What are you doing! Just stay still! You've become lawless since the Third Brother left. If you dare to mess around again, I'll divorce you on behalf of the Third Brother!"
Li's neck shrank and she felt scared.
Now her sister-in-law is the head of her family. If she is divorced, it is a question whether her sister-in-law can accept her. Even if she does, she may be sold to an old man by her brother and sister-in-law in exchange for a betrothal gift.
"Mom, I..."
"What about me? Go get some water so I can wipe myself!" Old Mrs. Xue perfectly portrayed the role of the evil mother-in-law.
Li went out with a grim look on her face.
It took me a while to realize that something was wrong. Why did this old woman's attitude change so suddenly?
Also, where did all that blood on her body come from?
Li's head was full of questions, but when she looked into Old Lady Xue's sinister and turbid triangular eyes, she didn't dare to explore further and just obediently wiped her body.
He wiped it while feeling disgusted.
Ugh, this smell is so fucking terrible! Did this old woman roll around in the pigpen?
Li was full of resentment, but intimidated by the threats from Old Lady Xue, she had to obey.
Xue Huan waited for two days, but the Xue family did not use Xue Lao San's death to do anything weird, but instead held a funeral for him.
Xue Huan was very satisfied with this and brought Xue's mother and others back from the county.
After all, I am a relative of the third branch, so I have to attend Xue Laosan's funeral.
Xue Laosan died in a disgraceful manner, and the third wife didn't have much money. In the end, it was Old Mrs. Xue who knocked out one of her gold teeth and exchanged it for some money to arrange Xue Laosan's funeral.
Although it was a bit shabby, at least Xue Laosan was buried in peace.
Li hugged her son and cried so loudly, as if she was crying for Xue Huan's family to see.
But Xue Huan has no sympathy at all.
After that, the Xue family settled down, and Xue Huan also put her future career on the agenda.
The peppers in the space have already matured. She plans to build a large vegetable garden outside to grow peppers, and then sell peppers as her official livelihood.
Hunting is okay occasionally, but it's impossible to make it a lifelong career.
However, before building a vegetable garden, she had to take out the peppers, make them into dishes, and show their value.
So when Xue Huan came back from hunting that day, she brought back a small bag of chili peppers and told her mother that she had seen them in the mountains and brought them back to see if they could be used in cooking.
Xue's mother was already used to this, because Xue Huan often brought back some strange things from the mountains and made them into food.
For example, Pueraria root. Xue's mother only knew that Pueraria root was a medicinal herb. She had no idea that it could be used in cooking. But when Xue Huan made it into soup, it tasted very good.
There is also a kind of thing called big potato that looks gray and dirty. When you remove the skin, the flesh is very sweet and crisp. It tastes great whether used in cold dishes or stir-fries.
