Huang Sunshi successfully swayed the crowd, and they immediately started to speculate about how miserable Yue Erlang's childhood must have been.
Even the village chief, who came over after hearing the commotion, believed it.
"Yue Laiwu, come out here. Is Erlang really a descendant of your Yue family?"
The village chief's words served as further evidence, convincing the neighbors that Yue Erlang now belonged to someone else.
Who can blame them when the village chief is recognized as the smartest person in the village?
Yue Jiangshi was furious. She sat down on the ground and started crying loudly.
She was genuinely crying, "My God, I can't live like this anymore."
Anyone with a mouth can come to my door and spout nonsense. Are you trying to bully my family because we have no one to rely on?
No matter how you look at it, Yue Erlang is still the old woman's biological son.
"Watch your mouth, or you'll end up in the deepest hell after you die..."
While crying, Yue Jiangshi wiped her nose, occasionally wiping the snot on the sole of her shoe before continuing to slap the ground and her thighs.
Seamlessly blending dust and pants.
Lin watched Yue Jiang's movements, pondering in her heart,
"How did this old woman manage to pat her nose for so long without getting any snot on it?"
Her wild thoughts lasted only a moment; Lin hadn't forgotten the purpose of her visit to her in-laws' house today.
As the village chief questioned him, Yue Laiwu slipped on his shoes and came out of the house.
It was that same smug smile again.
"The village chief is here. What? Who said my second son isn't my child?"
You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want, or it could lead to someone's death.
Be responsible for your words.
Yue Laiwu seemed to be saying this to everyone, but he was actually speaking to the village chief.
It's because the village chief just questioned it too.
The village chief was well aware of Yue Laiwu's thoughts.
"Alright, today your in-laws have come to seek justice for their daughter, asking you why the children are treated differently."
I'm pretty confused too.
Logically speaking, your second son is the best-looking and the most successful among his brothers, but he has also had the hardest life since childhood.
Now that he's grown up and married, his wife and son live a hard life with him.
Tell me, why does the whole family specifically bully the second wife?
If you can't give me a clear answer today,
"Not only would I, the village chief, and the villagers disagree, but even your in-laws wouldn't agree."
The village chief has made his point very clear; the implication is...
"Go ahead and make it up, make it up properly. If you don't make it convincing, your in-laws will eat you alive today."
Yue Laiwu clearly did not understand the village chief's meaning; he only thought that the village chief was on the Zhao family's side.
"You people are really something. Even an upright official can't settle family disputes. Have you finished your own work in the fields or what?"
They came to my doorstep to meddle in my business.
Erlang is, of course, my and his mother's biological son.
And those who say Erlang was treated poorly, did you see it with your own eyes or what?
Which boy doesn't work? I have several boys, and none of them don't work. If they don't work, they'll starve to death.
It's getting dark, and my eyesight isn't very good, so why are there so many people gathered at the entrance?
"You guys really have nothing better to do than come out and watch the fun so late at night instead of going home to sleep."
Yue Laiwu intends to continue playing dumb to the very end.
The Lin family wouldn't give him that chance.
"I don't know if others are free or not, but as for me, I'm here today to seek justice for my daughter."
My daughter brought her dowry into your family, and in the past three years, your wife has taken all the money from her dowry under various pretexts.
There were also various items included as part of the dowry, such as fabrics and bed sheets.
Aside from these material possessions, you should never have treated my daughter and grandson so harshly.
The son belongs to your family, and this old woman has no say in it, but the daughter and grandson have our Zhao family blood flowing through their veins.
If we don't make this clear today, did you see the man behind the old woman? Humph…
