Danruo also asked for a piece of cloth that the little girl could wear, a brand new quilt and mattress.
Old Mrs. Huang had a dark face and was reluctant to part with these good things.
But she knew very well that one cannot catch a wolf without sacrificing a child, and besides, this ginseng was worth at least a few dozen taels of silver.
He was delighted to see that her daughter, who had always been stupid, finally knew how to fight for herself and was no longer the hopeless pushover she had been before.
She walked up to Danruo and wanted to cut the cloth to make her a dress, so that Old Lady Huang wouldn't want to take Danruo back later if she thought it was worthless.
When Aunt Huang saw this, she immediately and affectionately took Danruo's arm:
"You are the girl I raised, so let Auntie do it for you."
With a gleam in her eyes, she knew that with a little thought, she could steal a lot of cloth from this piece of cloth and save it for her son to use when he got married.
Danruo pulled out the arm that was held by Aunt Huang San, handed the cloth to He Shi, and said kindly:
"Thank you, mother, for making me a dress."
When Mrs. He saw Aunt Huang intervene, she didn't expect her stepdaughter to be on her side. After all, Aunt Huang always coaxed her stepdaughter around.
Aunt Huang saw that He Shi didn't react for a moment, so she said to Dan Ruo as usual:
"Your request is embarrassing for your stepmother. Let Third Aunt come."
He quickly said that she was not embarrassed.
Dan Ruo looked at Aunt Huang steadily, as if she had suddenly come to her senses.
"Third Aunt, you always said that you and I have a close relationship. You said that although I am Huang Tianwen and Huang Tianwu's cousin, they treat me as their own sister and let me work like a slave for this brother."
"But grandma wanted to beat me today, Huang Tianwen and Huang Tianwu were watching me make fun of me, and only Tianquan was helping me the whole time, so everything Aunt San said before was a lie."
"Aunt San said that all stepmothers are bad. If I had lived under the hands of a stepmother, I would have been beaten to death long ago. Let me live with you. Although it is a bit hard, at least I can survive."
When He heard how Aunt Huang had made up stories about her in front of her stepdaughter, she realized that it was no wonder that her stepdaughter always looked like she was afraid that she would eat her.
Being a stepmother is already difficult. It is inevitable that the villagers will say something about her behind her back because her stepdaughter is not close to her.
She immediately picked up the sole of her shoe and slapped Aunt Huang in the face, shouting:
"You black-hearted thing, you've been deceiving my second wife since she was little. It seems like you're the one who ruined my reputation."
