Han Hu and Han Quan were impressed by how Su Wenyue impressed the Jiang family so easily, but they also witnessed how powerful Su Wenyue was. Although the fourth brother's wife looked gentle, her methods were actually amazing!
The Jiang family made a big fuss but didn't get any benefit from Su Wenyue. Although they were unwilling, there was nothing they could do. With Jiang Chunlan as an example, no one dared to really do anything to Su Wenyue. Jiang Chunlan ended up like this because she went against Su Wenyue.
Seeing that there was no possibility of making any progress with Su Wenyue, Yang Juxiang had to settle for the next best thing and went to Yang Guixiang again. Of course, she couldn't use a tough approach this time, so she started crying to her elder sister Yang Guixiang. This was also what Yang Juxiang was good at and she used it often in the past.
Yang Guixiang had already felt a little guilty towards her younger sister because of this matter. No matter what Jiang Chunlan did wrong, it was always caused by the Han family. Yang Juxiang's attitude was too aggressive before, and Yang Guixiang was angry. But now that Yang Juxiang started crying, Yang Guixiang felt soft-hearted, but she had no other choice. Jiang Chunlan had been locked up in the county government cell, and she was powerless to do anything even if she wanted to. She didn't have the ability to ask the county magistrate to release her.
The Jiang family was so far from Xinhe Village that it was impossible for the Jiang family to go back immediately after they arrived. Moreover, they had eaten some porridge in the early morning before dawn and hurried on their way. It was already noon and everyone was starving. Yang Guixiang thought about it and asked Liu to prepare a meal. Although it was not rich, it could at least fill their stomachs.
Mrs. Liu was very dissatisfied with her mother-in-law's behavior. Why should her family provide food to entertain the Jiang family? She had no good impression of Jiang Chunlan in the first place, and now she had even less good impression of the Jiang family who wasted their food. She kept a cold face throughout the meal.
Originally, Yang Juxiang brought so many people with the intention of using their numbers to threaten Su Wenyue. Now that this method obviously doesn't work, there is no need to keep so many people. Someone has to keep an eye on the house and do the work in the fields. Yang Juxiang took her little grandson who couldn't work and stayed at the Han's house. Her idea was just to eat and drink for free at the Han's house to save some food for the family.
Mrs. Liu could see what Yang Juxiang was thinking. Before this, Yang Juxiang and her daughter had been eating and drinking for free at the Han's house for so many days, and they looked very unhappy. After all, she could not go against the wishes of her husband and mother-in-law, so she just kept the food in the house firmly in her hands. The daily meals were worse than before, and the dishes were either very salty or very bland, which made Yang Juxiang frown.
Su Wenyue was sitting outside in the sun after a full meal and a good sleep that day when she saw two girls from the big room chewing on a handful of silk roots. The younger girl was holding her belly while chewing.
"Sister, Si Maogen doesn't care about being full at all. I'm still so hungry." The second girl Han Xiaohua looked pitiful. Han Xiaofeng felt sorry for his sister but had no choice but to touch her hair as a comfort.
Before the family split up, Su Wenyue would often give her children snacks and cakes when she saw that they didn't eat well. Now that the family split up, they spend less time together. Su Wenyue was pregnant and felt sleepy most of the time, so she paid little attention to the children. Especially now that Yang Juxiang was living in the big house with the children, Liu felt unbalanced and deliberately made harsh demands on the food. However, since Yang Juxiang was keeping a close eye on her, she couldn't cook just for her own children, which made the two children suffer.
"Auntie!" The eldest and second girls shouted happily when they saw Su Wenyue coming over, the frustration on their faces faded away. Maybe because Su Wenyue was beautiful and gentle, the children liked her very much.
"Big girl and little girl, why are you squatting here? You are eating silky roots." Su Wenyue looked at the two children with a smile. She liked children in the first place, and now that she was pregnant, she felt even more love and pity for the children.
"Aunt, several cousins from my great aunt's family have occupied my sister and my room. We have nowhere to go, we don't have enough food to eat, and we're so hungry!" Han Xiaohua was young and not sensible enough. She started complaining as soon as Su Wenyue asked.
"Then why don't you go over to your aunt's place to play? There are delicious food at my aunt's house." Su Wenyue said as she took Da Niu and Er Niu back to her room. She first gave Da Niu and Er Niu two pieces of cakes to fill their stomachs, and then asked Xiaoxi to make a bowl of noodles for each of them. She let them go only after they were full, and also put two handfuls of candy in their pockets.
The eldest and second daughter left happily. Liu had already seen her two daughters follow the fourth son's wife into the house. The fourth son's wife was always nice to the children and often prepared food for them. She also saw Xiaoxi light a fire and cook something in the simple small kitchen she had built and brought it in. She could smell the fragrance from afar and felt very grateful to Su Wenyue. Mothers all love their children, and Su Wenyue's behavior made her more grateful than the small favors she usually gave her.
"Miss, you are so kindhearted. You are so good to these children. The eldest wife will have a hard time these days. Aunt Yang is not a good person. She also brought a few half-grown boys with her. I am afraid they have bullied the eldest and second daughters."
"They are my nieces after all." Su Wenyue said with a smile. Fortunately, the Han family has split up, so these things have nothing to do with her anymore.
Su Wenyue and Xiaoxi were chatting intermittently, and soon they heard a girl crying outside. It sounded like Erniu's voice. Su Wenyue and Xiaoxi hurried out and saw Yang Juxiang's grandchildren surrounding the two sisters, Da Niu and Erniu, and the children were pulling each other.
"What are you doing? These are the candies our aunt gave us. Don't snatch them! Don't snatch them!" The eldest girl protected the second girl, while the second girl protected the candies in her pocket, crying as she spoke. It turned out that some of Yang Juxiang's grandchildren saw the eldest girl and the second girl eating the candies and became greedy, so they wanted to snatch their candies.
"These kids are really poorly brought up!" Xiaoxi already hated the Jiang family, and these kids were at an age where they were hated by everyone. Seeing these half-grown boys teaming up to bully the two younger girls, Da Niu and Er Niu, Xiaoxi walked over and rudely pulled away the boys who were pulling Da Niu and Er Niu. Su Wenyue was afraid that they would bump into the baby in her belly, so she just stood not far away and didn't go any closer.
"You little brats are outrageous. How dare you bully my daughter!" Liu came out when she heard the noise. Seeing someone bullying her daughter, she rushed over without saying a word. The naughty boys were afraid of Liu and ran away. Because they ran so fast in a panic, one of them didn't see clearly in front and directly bumped into Su Wenyue.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Su Wenyue was originally keeping some distance between them. She did not expect this boy to suddenly rush over to her. She could not dodge in time and fell to the ground while protecting her stomach. Xiaoxi was so frightened when he saw this that his face changed.
