"This is outrageous, head of the family, the old man actually dared to pretend to be sick. This kind of unfilial son, I want the elders of the clan to come over and drive him out of the house!!"
As soon as Tu Yufan came home, Zhao Cuiying rushed towards him howling. Tu Yufan stepped back and Zhao Cuiying successfully fell to the ground.
Tu Yufan also remembered that today should be the day when his father successfully escaped from the Zhu family.
"What happened?"
Other members of the Zhu family also arrived. The old wife felt something was wrong and rushed into the yard to check.
Zhu Wan burst into tears and ran into the arms of her old daughter-in-law.
"Mom, grandma wants to sell me!"
When the old daughter-in-law heard this, she felt distressed and hugged Zhu Wan.
"Don't be afraid, mother would rather die of starvation than sell Wan'er."
After the old wife comforted Zhu Wan, she turned her head and looked at Zhao Cuiying with resentment in her eyes.
Zhao Cuiqi's heart sank. This honest daughter-in-law, who had always been respectful to her, actually looked at her with such a lewd look.
Zhao Cuizhen felt guilty at first, then said dissatisfiedly: "I am doing this for my father's back injury. It is not a good idea to delay it like this. I have to earn some silver to treat the disease."
"This girl is weak and I don't know if I can raise her. It's better to sell her for some silver."
Tu Yufan estimated that even if the money was really exchanged for silver, Zhao Cuizhen would only fill the hole of the eldest brother and would not hire a doctor for the old man.
"Mom, how can you say that? Wan'er is my daughter. Why did you sell her without telling me?" the old wife complained.
"What's wrong? Don't you have the right to do so? I can't afford to eat since you came home. There's nothing I can do about it."
During the drought, farmland had no harvest and human trafficking occurred frequently, but Zhao Cuizhen didn't think she had done anything wrong.
"I just didn't expect that my husband is such a lazy person. I can't keep you here. It just so happens that you have started a family and have separated from your parents."
The eldest brother's eyes flashed, and he pretended to be kind and said, "Mom, my father must have just passed away not long ago and didn't have time to tell you."
"Don't speak for the old man. He jumped up and hit people with such great strength and a murderous look on his face. Does he look like a normal person?"
Tu Yufan raised his eyes and took a look at Zhao Cuiqi's ferocious appearance, as if his own son was an enemy.
The old man's face also turned red. He had just recovered a few days ago, but his daughter asked him not to tell anyone.
As the sun was very hot recently, he was responsible for most of the work. His daughter felt sorry for him and said that if he was in a hurry to go out to work when he just recovered, it would easily leave him with a chronic illness.
His wife Jingniang also advised him in the same way, so he pretended to be sick for a few days. He didn't expect that his wife Jingniang wanted to sell his daughter Wan'er without saying a word.
Under the insistence of Zhao Cuiqi, the original owner's uncle came over soon.
"Niece-in-law, what are you doing? Life has finally gotten better, what are you thinking of doing?"
Uncle Zhu also understood Zhao Cuiying's personality. She was strong and unreasonable. Her nephew had become quiet for a long time because of her. Now she wanted to separate the old man from her.
The old man usually does the most work and is not good at speaking. Zhao Cuizhen always belittles him in front of others. Others can see through it and think Zhao Cuizhen is ungrateful.
It’s just that the villagers were too lazy to meddle in other people’s family affairs, so they just talked about it in private.
"Uncle, I want you to be a witness today. My husband has started a family, and today we are going to separate!"
Uncle Zhu said, "Then just think about it. I'll draw up a document on how to divide it."
