The old house of the Xia family.
Xia Weian, Xia Jianguo, Xia Zhiqiang and several of the Xia family's eldest grandsons went up the mountain together to bury Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia.
Xia Zirui was secretly looking at Xia Weian all the way.
He found that Xia Weian had become a completely different person since he moved into the Han family's courtyard.
Now that he is walking with his father and says they are brothers, no one will believe him.
Sure enough, people who are blessed by ghosts and gods are different.
Xia Zirui withdrew his gaze and repeatedly warned himself in his heart that no matter how much he envied Xia Weian's family, he must not have the idea of dealing with them again...
Otherwise, I will die miserably.
Xia Zixuan didn't say a word to Xia Weian along the way, but just kept looking at him.
When Xia Weian looked at him, Xia Zixuan lowered his head with red eyes, looking cautious as if he wanted to see but didn't want to be seen.
Xia Weian understood Xia Zixuan's meaning too well. Xia Zixuan was indeed the eldest of the ungrateful people in the Xia family.
In his previous life, every time he wanted something, he would retreat in order to advance.
Even though it is something he clearly wants, he will find ways to get others to say it first, so that he can gain a reputation as a good person and get benefits at the same time.
It just so happened that he and Song Qingyun in their previous life had the thickest filter for him. At that time, they always felt that Xia Zixuan was their spiritual sustenance.
As a result... they are such a ridiculous couple!
Xia Weian withdrew his gaze indifferently. It didn't matter whether he looked at Xia Zixuan or not. Even if Xia Zixuan suffered a great injustice, it had nothing to do with him.
After all, he had severed ties with the Xia family.
The reason I came here today was simply because I didn't want to bother with the dead, and I wanted to leave a good reputation for myself in the village.
After the funeral of Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia, he will have no relationship with the people in the Xia family at all.
He doesn't care whether they are dead or alive, good or bad, as long as they don't dance in front of him.
At the burial site, everything went on in an orderly manner.
The old house of the Xia family.
There were four women left: Song Qingyun, Zhao Meilan, Tian Guihua and Wang Cui.
Wang Cui poured a glass of water for Song Qingyun, "Aunt San, drink some water."
"Thank you, second wife."
Song Qingyun took the cup of water, but didn't drink it. She had seen Wang Cui kill people without blinking an eye... She must not eat anything she gave her.
Wang Cui smiled and said, "Third Aunt, you are too polite. We have been busy all morning. Please sit down and rest for a while."
Song Qingyun nodded and found a place to sit down.
Tian Guihua rolled her eyes at Song Qingyun and nudged Zhao Meilan lightly with her arm.
"Look at your daughter-in-law. She's so caring towards her third aunt. Her second aunt and mother-in-law have to stand aside."
How could Wang Cui not hear the sarcasm in Tian Guihua's tone?
"Second Aunt, you and mother have already had some drinks. Third Aunt hasn't had any water yet, so I brought her a glass."
"Tsk, isn't it just because your Third Aunt is well-dressed and capable? It's not shameful to want to climb up the social ladder, but you are destined not to be able to climb up the social ladder. You married in too late, don't you know..."
Wang Cui interrupted Tian Guihua's chatter and said, "Second Aunt, I didn't marry into the family, I married her."
Tian Guihua's face looked a little ugly.
Zhao Meilan's face also turned ugly. After all, it was her son who married into the family. After hearing what Wang Cui said, she felt uncomfortable again.
"Wang Cui, no matter what, I am your mother-in-law. Please be polite when talking to me."
"Mom, I'm talking to Second Aunt." Wang Cui retorted directly.
Zhao Meilan's eyes widened in anger. "Is this how your family taught you to talk to your elders?"
"My family didn't teach me how to respect my elders. They just told me not to be bullied."
"Mother-in-law, Second Aunt, we can live in peace until the funeral is over. Zirui and I will go home and we won't be here on a regular basis."
"So if I say anything inappropriate, please bear with me. If you can't bear with me, please be patient."
Wang Cui spoke very calmly, and Zhao Meilan glared at her angrily.
Tian Guihua was also very angry. She stood up quickly, grabbed Zhao Meilan's arm and pushed her forward half a step.
"Wang Cui, don't be so arrogant. Let me tell you, your marriage with Zirui was arranged by the old man. Now that the old man is gone, this marriage, in my opinion, should not count."
"If you want to settle the score, go find the old man and get our Zirui back."
"If you don't want to be abandoned, Wang Cui, I'm telling you, you'd better behave yourself in front of us from now on. Otherwise, with your mother-in-law here, if you dare to act arrogantly, she will definitely ask Zirui to divorce you. By then, you'll be a slut, second-hand goods, and I don't think anyone will want you."
The more Tian Guihua spoke, the more she felt justified. She pulled Zhao Meilan's arm.
Zhao Meilan reacted instantly. Yes, the old man Xia who had promised to let Xia Zirui marry into his family was dead now, so the marriage was no longer valid!
Zirui is their son, so he won't suffer any loss if he marries into the family. In a sense, he is sleeping with his wife for free!
The more Zhao Meilan thought about it, the more she felt that Tian Guihua was right. She pointed at Wang Cui.
"Yes, Wang Cui, I'm telling you, when Zirui comes back, I'll make him divorce you. Forget about your relationship. Zirui wants to go home. He's a child of our Xia family. How could he possibly be your son-in-law?"
"The old man was confused before, but now he's dead, so don't bother with him anymore."
Wang Cui was amused by what both of them said.
"Don't think that just because I call you mother, you really think of yourself as a mother."
"I can take Xia Zirui away, and if you dare to bring him back, I have the ability to take him away again. You can try and see if Xia Zirui will divorce me."
After Wang Cui finished speaking, she flicked her sleeves and turned back to the room where she and Xia Zirui had stayed last night.
Zhao Meilan and Tian Guihua were so angry that they glared at each other.
Song Qingyun was holding a cup of water and watching this big show. His mood instantly became better.
Eating melons makes people happy, and eating melons at close range makes people twice as happy.
The two of them saw at the same time Song Qingyun's slightly gloating expression.
Their spearheads were instantly directed at Song Qingyun.
Just as they were about to speak, Song Qingyun slowly stood up.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, if you don't welcome me, I'll leave. When the villagers ask about it, I'll say it was you who drove me back home."
Song Qingyun smiled. She was good-looking to begin with, and after raising her for such a long time, she looked glowing white, and her every frown and smile was different from theirs.
Although Zhao Meilan and Tian Guihua weren't particularly bright, they knew that if they came into conflict with Song Qingyun, everyone would believe Song Qingyun's words, while few would believe their own...
"Aunt San, please come to my room and sit for a while." Wang Cui greeted her. She was happy when Zhao Meilan and Tian Guihua were unhappy.
Song Qingyun responded and walked in slowly.
Wang Cui picked up her bag and prepared to put something in it, but the box she had hidden earlier happened to fall to the ground...
