Zhang Xiu looked up and saw Zhao Damei. His face immediately darkened. He held Baili Wanwan's hand tightly and walked straight ahead, completely ignoring Zhao Damei.
Zhao Damei cursed under her breath and reached out to stop them in their tracks.
Her greedy gaze fell on the fabric in Zhang Xiu's basket, and she said with a sarcastic tone, "Oh, you've made money and bought so much fabric. My poor children don't even have a decent piece of clothing."
Zhang Xiu instinctively protected the basket on his back and looked at Zhao Damei warily.
"What business is it of mine if your child doesn't have clothes to wear?"
Thinking of her usual behavior, Zhang Xiu snorted heavily, "Zhao Damei, instead of spending your time watching our family, you should worry about Qiu Feng's marriage. Qiu Feng is over twenty years old, a grown man, why can't he find a wife? Don't you have any idea?"
Zhao Damei was speechless for a moment, her eyes filled with jealousy.
Her gaze fell on Baili Wanwan's fair face, and she spat fiercely, "Zhang Xiu, you don't love your own son, but love some bastard who came from who-knows-where."
"I'd love to!"
Zhang Xiu spoke with conviction, straightening her back, "Besides, my family can afford to raise them. Even if two more women come along, I'll still be willing to support them. Instead of wasting your time worrying about this, why don't you go and earn more money to find a wife for Qiu Feng?"
She emphasized the last sentence very hard.
Zhao Damei couldn't find any words to refute it; her biggest worry was that her eldest son, Wan Qiufeng, couldn't find a wife.
Her fierce gaze fell on Baili Wanwan, the malice in her eyes almost materializing.
Baili Wanwan looked into Zhao Damei's eyes and felt no fear at all.
She blinked, looking at the black aura surrounding her, and reminded her in a childish voice, "Grandma Zhao, you must be careful when you walk at night."
"You little bastard, how dare you curse me?"
Zhao Damei's eyebrows furrowed, and her eyes glared like copper bells.
She rolled up her sleeves and reached out to grab Baili Wanwan.
Zhang Xiu swiftly pulled Baili Wanwan into her arms and sternly rebuked, "Zhao Damei, what do you want to do?"
Zhao Damei stood with her hands on her hips, looking determined not to give up.
"Zhang Xiu, did you teach this little bastard to curse me?"
No, that's not it.
Baili Wanwan denied it in a soft, sweet voice, looking at Zhao Damei with a serious expression.
"Grandma Zhao, Wanwan didn't curse you, Wanwan is just telling the truth."
"you……"
Before Zhao Damei could utter her curses, Zhang Xiu interrupted her with a sharp shout, "Zhao Damei!"
Zhang Xiu knew her character all too well. She didn't want Wanwan to hear those vulgar words, and her eyes were full of warning. "Zhao Damei, if you dare to curse Wanwan again, I'll never forgive you!"
After saying that, he simply picked up Wanwan and left.
Watching their departing figures, Zhao Damei spat again and muttered under her breath, "You little bastards, you little bitches, you just wait!"
After watching Zhang Xiu's figure walk away, she turned around and walked towards home.
result……
He had only taken a few steps when he stepped on a stone and fell heavily to the ground, his chin hitting the ground directly.
The pain was so intense that Zhao Damei screamed in agony.
Upon hearing the sound behind them, Zhang Xiu and Baili Wanwan couldn't help but look back.
Seeing Zhao Damei lying on the ground, groaning incessantly, Zhang Xiu's eyes revealed a gloating expression.
"Serves you right!"
Baili Wanwan nodded this time and clapped her hands, "Let her bully her aunt."
Thinking of what had happened in the county town and what Wanwan had just said to Zhao Damei, Zhang Xiu felt a little uneasy. She patted Wanwan's head and said, "Wanwan, don't say those things again."
She met Zhang Xiu's gentle gaze, and although she didn't understand why, she obediently nodded.
Zhang Xiu quickened his pace, and could faintly hear Zhao Damei's curses behind him, which made him frown.
Zhao Damei has suffered such a huge loss this time, she certainly won't let it go so easily...
Back home, Zhang Xiu went to Wan Suizhou's room and took out the money she had earned from selling fish that day.
“Father-in-law, this is the money I earned from selling fish today. I used some of it to buy a bag, and I’m going to make new clothes for Wanwan.”
Wan Suizhou nodded. "Of course."
Zhang Xiu thought of Zhao Damei's past behavior, and her eyes darkened. "Father-in-law, I ran into my second aunt on my way back. She tried to take Wanwan's steps and accidentally tripped and fell."
Wan Suizhou thought of Zhao Damei's personality and sighed helplessly, "Eldest daughter-in-law, don't worry about the rest, I'll handle it."
Zhang Xiu looked at Wan Suizhou with a hint of something in his eyes, but ultimately said nothing.
Wan Suizhou took out a small portion of the money he earned from selling fish that day, leaving the rest mostly in his money bag, and went directly to Wan Suijin's house.
No sooner had he left home than Baili Wanwan secretly followed him.
She had been eavesdropping under the window and knew that Grandpa Wan was definitely going to find Wan Suijin. Fearing that Grandpa Wan would be bullied, she decided to follow him.
If Wan Suijin and the others bully Grandpa Wan, she will protect him!
Baili Wanwan's round face was now filled with seriousness as she cautiously followed behind Wan Suizhou.
When Wan Suizhou arrived at Wan Suijin's house, Zhao Damei was exaggerating how Zhang Xiu disrespected her as his aunt and even deliberately pushed her down, causing her to break her chin.
Upon hearing this, Baili Wanwan's cheeks instantly turned into a pufferfish-like shape.
Bad guy!
At this moment, Wan Suizhou coughed softly, "Sister-in-law."
When Zhao Damei saw Wan Suizhou, she covered her chin and cried out even louder, "Why is my life so miserable? I was even beaten by a junior. Mother-in-law... if you were here, I wouldn't suffer such humiliation. Qiu Feng's life is also miserable. He can't even find a wife."
Wan Suizhou looked helpless, sighed silently, and took out the money bag, placing it on the table beside him.
"Sister-in-law, Wanwan is young and doesn't understand things, don't take it to heart."
When Zhao Damei saw the money bag, a glint of light flashed in her eyes.
She didn't care what Wan Suizhou said at all, and rushed over to take the money bag.
She counted the copper coins inside, muttering, "This little bit of silver isn't even enough to fill a tooth gap. Zhang Xiu spent so much silver on cloth for that little bastard, but didn't even share a little with us."
This scene was witnessed by Baili Wanwan, who was hiding outside, and her soft little fists clenched tightly.
Grandpa Wan's family is already so poor, yet they still dare to rob him of his money. They are so wicked!
Her angry eyes swept over Wan Suijin's courtyard.
When his gaze fell upon a basket of vegetables, an idea immediately came to him.
