She had a lot of work to do this morning, and it was almost noon before she finished. So she thought she might as well finish it before going back to cook, which made her finish work a little late. Just as she was going down the slope, she saw Zhang Juhua, that gossipy woman, carrying a bowl, sneaking into the Yun family's old courtyard, which is where she lives now. She wondered what she was up to.
Almost instinctively, Zhao Cuifen followed Zhang Juhua into the Yun family's old courtyard.
However, she didn't dare to enter the house openly like Zhang Juhua. She only dared to hide outside and eavesdrop on Zhang Juhua and Yun Qishi's conversation.
It's because Yun Dazheng finished work late today and hasn't come back yet; otherwise, she would have been kicked out long ago.
She had been listening to Zhang Juhua's rambling and had already guessed her purpose, inwardly despising her. Then she learned the 'truth' about her once submissive and hardworking daughter's growing estrangement from her. She couldn't hide it any longer and immediately jumped out, cursing. Firstly, she genuinely blamed Zhang Juhua, believing it was Zhang Juhua who had caused Yun Duo's estrangement. Secondly, she wanted to use this opportunity to shift all the blame onto Zhang Juhua so she could 'repair' her mother-daughter relationship with Yun Duo.
Zhao Cuifen worked swiftly on her abacus, and her subordinates were equally ruthless, scratching, kicking, and hitting Zhang Juhua until she was completely stunned.
It took Zhang Juhua a long time to come to her senses. Ignoring the fact that she had already fallen to the ground under Zhao Cuifen's beating and smashed the bowl of wild vegetable paste all over the ground, she let out a howl and started wrestling with Zhao Cuifen.
After Zhao Cuifen and Zhang Juhua started fighting, each slapping and pulling hair, stomping and punching, Yun Qishi finally reacted. Afraid that these two shrewish women would cause a ruckus in her kitchen, knocking over pots and breaking bowls, and also worried that they might hurt Yun Duo, she quickly tiptoed to the stove, grabbed Yun Duo, and shouted, "What are you fighting about? What are you fighting about? You've come to my old woman's room to fight, do you think I'm easy to bully?"
"That's right, if you want to fight, go outside. If you break our belongings inside, you have to pay for them!" Yun Duo was now enjoying the show. She already disliked these two women, and now that they were fighting like dogs, it was a good opportunity for her to vent her anger.
However, just like Yun Qishi thought, this was their own kitchen, and all the pots and pans belonged to them. If they were broken and needed to be replaced, that would cost money.
Who knows if those two stubborn shrewish women will pay compensation? She's not going to go to the county magistrate or the Lin family about such a trivial matter; at most, she'll just go to the village chief.
They're all from the same village, so they see each other all the time. If the two women want to cause trouble, the village chief doesn't have much of a solution.
So, upon hearing Yun Qi's words, Yun Duo immediately started shouting along.
Although Zhao Cuifen and Zhang Juhua were locked in a fierce battle, she still remembered her eldest son's words to "please" Yun Duo. Therefore, as soon as she heard Yun Duo's voice, she reacted immediately, grabbed Zhang Juhua's hair and pulled her outside, shouting as she did so: "Zhang Juhua, you rotten-tongued, rotten-hearted old woman, come with me outside to fight! If I don't teach you a lesson today, I really won't be able to swallow this humiliation!"
