Su Man was not annoyed by being denied, and smiled and said, "Mom, my grandma has the skill of making wine. At that time, the wine she made was praised by people in the surrounding area."
"Really?" Zhao Chunhua was skeptical.
Su Man tempted, "Just let me try. If I can brew it successfully, Dad can save money on wine in the future."
When it comes to money, Zhao Chunhua's face softens.
Yes, they are farmers and have no shortage of food, but the money for the wine is actually spent, so let her try it.
"Okay then, no matter if it succeeds or not, let's do it this time. Do you hear me?"
"Oh, I know, Mom."
On the way back, they passed by their second uncle's house again. Fortunately, it was very quiet inside this time.
Zhao Chunhua was still upset about what happened yesterday and didn't bother to look in. But Su Man immediately spotted her second aunt peeking in.
Her eyes moved slightly, and she deliberately raised her voice. "Aunt San's grandson will probably be born next year. I'll make a small piece of clothing as a token of my appreciation."
Zhao Chunhua, who was walking in front, quickly turned around and gestured "hush," "Keep your voice down. If your second aunt hears, she'll start throwing a tantrum again. Let's go back and talk."
The second aunt, who was hiding in the doorway, changed her expression when she heard the word "grandson". Then, after hearing Zhao Chunhua accuse her of throwing a tantrum, she kicked the wooden door open, pinching her waist and shouting in a loud voice, "Zhao Chunhua! Who are you calling a tantrum?"
Zhao Chunhua was startled. "Her second aunt? What are you doing..."
In the time it took to say this, Second Aunt pointed her finger in front of her, "You're so good! You owe my family money and don't pay it back, and you still have the nerve to gossip about me behind my back!"
Even if Zhao Chunhua was a good person, she would still be extremely unhappy to be scolded like this. The smile on her face was gone, and she said stiffly, "His second aunt, you heard it wrong, I didn't say anything about you."
"Did you hear me wrong? Do you think I'm a three-year-old who can be fooled?"
Second Auntie was relentless. "Back then, when your second son was going to school, he came to my house crying and begging to borrow money, almost kneeling down in front of me. Now, you've drained my family's wealth, while you're living a good life. You have lost your conscience!"
"His second aunt, what you said is too harsh. Didn't I promise to find a wife for your Shuanzhu? What are you yelling about?"
"Wife? Where is my wife? Is she in the sky or in the river? The third brother's grandson has come out, but I haven't even seen a hair! You go to the third brother's house every day, more frequently than you go to your mother's grave, isn't it just to steal things from them?"
"you!"
Zhao Chunhua was so angry that her lips trembled and she covered her heart with her hands, unable to speak.
Even so, Second Aunt still refused to give in. "You've already taken care of everything for your family and the third brother's family, but you're only leaving ours out. You're more like a dog than my Da Huang!"
puff...
Su Man couldn't hold it in and almost laughed out loud.
After she suppressed her smile, she dared to try to stop the fight, "Second Aunt, how can you talk to my mother-in-law like that?"
"Why am I talking, you little girl, what does it have to do with you!"
Su Man refused to give in. She puffed out her chest and rushed in front of Zhao Chunhua. "It's none of my business if you scold my mother-in-law. Your own son can't find a wife, so why are you taking it out on us? My mother-in-law's family has a college graduate like Li Xiang. It's fine if you don't respect her, but you still order her around. How can this be justified?"
"Hey, you still have the nerve to say that! If it weren't for my man lending you money, Li Xiang wouldn't be able to go to that lousy university. Why are you pretending like that?" Second Aunt was so irritated by Su Man that she was about to spit on Su Man's face.
Su Man sneered, "It's just a few bucks. When Li Xiang makes a fortune, do you think we care about your filthy little money? I'm afraid you won't even be able to drink my mother-in-law's foot washing water."
These words were so sharp that Zhao Chunhua felt relieved instantly. She pretended to mediate, "Xiao Man, how can you talk like that? Your Second Aunt is the elder after all. Why don't you apologize to her?"
"Apologize to her? Bah! She's nothing. She's not even as good as your toes, mother-in-law. You're doing her a honor by condescending to talk to her."
Second Aunt was so angry at Su Man that the blood vessels in her forehead popped out. She pointed at Su Man with trembling fingers, "You little bitch, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Su Man had been watching her out of the corner of her eye. Seeing her rushing towards her, she nimbly dodged and secretly tripped her. Second Aunt couldn't stop in time and knocked Zhao Chunhua to the ground.
“Ouch!”
Second Auntie pounced on the wrong person. Before she could even stand up, Su Man yelled, "How dare you hit my mother-in-law? If you know what's good for you, stand up right now, or I'll be rude to you!"
It would have been better if Su Man hadn't said this. After she said this, Second Aunt couldn't remember it even if she wanted to. If she did, it would seem like she was afraid of Zhao Chunhua.
Below, Zhao Chunhua felt suffocated by her second aunt's large frame. Adding to Su Man's intentional and unintentional fanning of the flames, she also lost her temper, "You damn bitch, get out of here!"
"Who are you calling a shrew? I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
“…”
As soon as she finished speaking, the two started fighting. Second Aunt relied on her size advantage to press Zhao Chunhua so hard that she couldn't move, but Zhao Chunhua was not going to give in for nothing. She grabbed her hair and refused to let go.
Su Man kept cheering them on, and by the time the two of them were pulled apart by their second uncle who came running over after hearing the noise, their hair was disheveled and their clothes were torn.
The corner of Zhao Chunhua's mouth was broken, her eyes were black and blue, and she covered her waist and cursed.
Second Aunt wasn't in a much better situation either. Zhao Chunhua pulled out several handfuls of her hair, causing her scalp to burn with pain. She was also scratched on the neck, leaving several bloody marks that were shocking.
Before entering the house, she was still yelling, "You old bitch, you bitch, have you ever given birth to a child..."
Su Man was helping Zhao Chunhua walk home. Zhao Chunhua got angry when she heard this and turned around to curse, but Su Man persuaded her, "Okay, Mom, why bother arguing with someone of her status? Let's go back."
Zhao Chunhua felt pain all over her body at this moment, and could only hold on to Su Man's hand to go back.
-
Zhao Chunhua was injured, and Su Man was busy taking care of her, wiping her face with a hot towel and rubbing her waist. She was so busy that she had no time to rest.
Just as she was pouring water for Zhao Chunhua, Li Zhuang's loud voice rang out from outside, "Mom, where's the meal?"
Li Zhuang was already sweating after working all day, so he picked up the watering can in the yard and poured it over himself.
"Big brother."
When Li Zhuang heard Su Man's voice, he froze immediately, and the water in the scoop was neither poured nor not poured.
Su Man came out from inside and took a few steps towards him, then seemed to be afraid that he would not dare to go up, and whispered,
"Brother, Mom is injured and can't cook."
"What? Mom is hurt?"
When Li Zhuang heard this, he didn't care about anything else. He threw the watering can and ran into the house.
Inside, Zhao Chunhua was lying on the bed, crying out in pain. The bruises on her face had turned purple, and she looked very serious.
Li Zhuang got anxious when he saw it, "What's going on? Who beat you up like this?"
