Wanxia reassured her softly, "It's alright, Second Sister, I can handle it. Auntie said that if it can be resolved verbally, there's no need to resort to physical force."
Xinghui looked up and felt that Wanxia was more like her mother's biological daughter than she was!
She nodded, thinking that when Aunt Huyu arrived, she would definitely ask her to teach her a few moves. She could tell that she was no match for her in words, thoughts, or even physical skills.
Wanxia looked at Zhang Chunhua and said in a businesslike manner, "The Fan family has seven people including you. Even if everyone works, two sets are enough for seven people. If you want more, you can give your reasons."
I'll send it to you if it's reasonable.
"You, you," Zhang Chunhua pointed at Wanxia, stammering for a long time, unsure of what to say.
A set contains a hole punch, three strips of linen, and three strips of fine cloth. The Fan family has seven members. Not to mention that Fan Qian is still in bed and needs to be fed, and Sun Jinhua gets covered in excrement and urine, making it impossible for her to work. Even if the two of them could work, they could only do things like grinding and drilling, which don't require them to move around.
Currently, only Fan Sizhu is able to move around in the Fan family. After she married into the family, Fan Sizhu and Fan Sizhu each cut bamboo and dragged it back, while Fan Sizhu split the bamboo into pieces. The remaining five people can be fully supported by two sets of tools.
But she heard that it contained fine cloth!
She wasn't greedy; she didn't want anything with holes or linen, just a few more pieces of fine cloth from Wanxia.
She gritted her teeth and said, "I'm your sister-in-law!"
“Ask anyone in the village, they’re all my aunts, my sisters-in-law, and my sisters-in-law, not to mention my sisters-in-law, so what’s the big deal?” Wanxia asked indifferently.
The women inside and outside the house responded loudly: "That's right! We're from the same village, what's there to divide!"
"Isn't being so clear-cut just a way to get benefits?"
"They've already been adopted, what else is there to say?"
Ignoring the mockery from the women behind her, Zhang Chunhua only looked at Wanxia.
Mother said that this is Dazhu's own sister, and they are family even if their blood is broken. Besides, women always side with their own family, so as long as she mentions it, she will definitely be given benefits!
Besides, it's Wanxia who's in charge of distributing the cloth strips now. What difference does it make if she distributes a few more or a few less? Hu Shuiqing wouldn't blame Wanxia for a few cloth strips.
"You don't even help your own family? Is your blood cold? Do you know what kind of life your family is going through right now? Or do you just care about your own well-being and don't care whether your family lives or dies?"
Instead of explaining herself, Wanxia countered, "You've come here now and are questioning me like this, isn't it also to gain something?"
Zhang Chunhua opened her mouth to defend herself, but Wanxia spoke first: "If it weren't for the kindness of my eldest sister's family, and my parents hadn't sold me to another place, would you still be here asking me if I would help my family? I probably would never have seen them again. I don't know if my blood is cold or not, but my heart is definitely cold!"
Family? Do you dare say that you wouldn't come to me to care about your husband's family's fate if it weren't because my eldest sister's family is kind-hearted and they didn't treat me like a younger sister, but instead treated me like a maid or servant, not having enough to eat or wear?
"Let me ask you one more time: if I were living a miserable life, would you call me your sister-in-law?"
