Meng Qidi finished her study and review a little late at night and was in a deep sleep. She was woken up by the scolding outside the yard in the morning.
After changing her clothes and washing up, she went downstairs, "Mom, what's going on?"
In the yard, Old Man Zhao was sitting under a tree playing checkers with the little girl, and Wang Jinhua was hanging clothes. The three of them seemed not to hear the scolding at the door at all.
Realizing that she seemed to be making a fuss out of nothing, Meng Qidi walked towards the old man and the young girl, bent down, picked up the chess piece in the little girl's hand, and pressed it on the chessboard...
Originally he was just teasing the little girl, but now the situation has changed. Old Man Zhao glared at her, "Others are watching the chess game in silence, why are you playing?"
Meng Qidi shrugged innocently, "My hands are itchy."
"Are you itching to do something? Come on, let's have a conversation." The old man said in a bad tone and motioned Meng Qidi to sit down.
Meng Qidi shrugged, "Just play with Xiao Chengzi. I'm going to eat. I'm hungry."
Ignoring the scolding outside the door, Meng Qidi ate and drank her fill in the kitchen before coming out and walking slowly towards the courtyard gate.
Only after eating will you have the energy to deal with the crazy woman at the door.
Seeing Meng Qidi was about to open the door, Old Man Zhao quickly picked up the little girl and didn't even care about the chess pieces, "Xiao Chengzi, Grandpa Zhao will take you to climb the mountain."
"What mountain are we climbing?" the little girl asked curiously.
"Look, that mountain." Old man Zhao picked up the person and ran away. As for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, he couldn't take care of them. His ability was limited, so he could only protect one of them.
After her granddaughter was taken away, Wang Jinhua wiped her hands, picked up the broom and followed Xiaoqi. The person was taken away by Old Man Zhao, so there was no need to worry about scaring the little girl.
"Wang Jinhua, you are shameless. You let our Jin Yue out. You can't give birth to a daughter, so you are following someone who can't lay eggs..."
The courtyard door was suddenly opened and Luo Xia's voice stopped abruptly.
Meng Qidi poured a basin of cold water on him, "You are already in your seventies and eighties, and you are such a capable old hen. Let me see you lay an egg!"
Luo Xia was drenched all over. She was stunned for a moment, then screamed, "Meng Qidi! How dare you splash me! I'll fight you."
"Come here, if you dare to touch my daughter-in-law!" Wang Jinhua appeared behind Meng Qidi at some point, holding a broom and said viciously.
"Whose house did you go to make a scene, Luo Xia? Do you really think I, Wang Jinhua, am afraid of you? I was blind before, but now I am not blind anymore. I can hit anyone I want. Do you want to try it?"
It was the first time that Luo Xia saw Wang Jinhua acting arrogantly. She was a little overwhelmed. After a moment, she put her hands on her hips and yelled.
"Wang Jinhua, your eyes are healed now, so you are angry now, right? I am telling you, if you don't let my daughter out today, I will never forgive you!"
"Bah! Your daughter is with me? Bullshit! Which eye of yours saw your daughter coming to me? I also said that you, Luo Xia, were dishonest and took a hundred yuan from me! Why don't you pay me back? As long as you pay me back, I will give your daughter to you even if I have to!"
This was the first time she saw her mother-in-law quarreling. There was no room for her to interrupt. Meng Qidi was dumbfounded. What was this mother-in-law saying with her eyes open? She was more powerful than her...
The quarrel between the two, plus Luo Xia's scolding all morning, attracted many people who came over after hearing the noise.
Wang Jinhua's words made everyone laugh, and some even laughed, "Sister-in-law Jinhua, why have you become so fierce?"
Wang Jinhua held the broom horizontally, "If you don't act fiercely, these blind people will think that I, Wang Jinhua, am made of mud. They dare to bully me. I, Wang Jinhua, was willing to give in before, but I was afraid that an old woman like me would be embarrassed, and that Xiao Chengzi would not have enough to eat."
Now that her son’s leg is fine and her daughter-in-law is not bad either, she is not afraid of anyone!
Wang Jinhua seemed to be talking about Luo Xia. Among the crowd watching the fun, his uncle Ling Tiansheng had a slightly gloomy expression. He glared at Wang Jinhua angrily, then left unhappily with his hands behind his back.
Luo Xia was no pushover either. "Bah! I think you are shameless, Wang Jinhua. Why did you lock up my daughter? I think your family is black-hearted and wants Jin Yue to work like a slave to make money for your family!"
As if she had enjoyed scolding him, she pointed at Meng Qidi and scolded, "Meng Qidi, I think you have a black heart. Not only did you embezzle our Jin Yue's money, but now you want to..."
"Aunt, are you sure you want to talk nonsense? I, Meng Qidi, am angry, but I won't give you face. You say I am black-hearted. To be honest, I have a clear conscience about how much money I give to your daughter. I will take as much money as I can afford."
Meng Qidi looked at her coldly, "I wonder if my aunt has a dark heart. She ignored her son's objection and insisted on sending her daughter to be someone else's stepmother. Isn't this a dark heart for a mother?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Luo Xia yelled angrily.
"Am I talking nonsense? Do you dare to swear to the heavens that you have no such intention? If you do, may the heavens strike you down and your descendants be cut off!"
Luo Xia's heart was pounding. She jumped up and pointed at Meng Qidi and cursed, "Meng Qidi! How can you be so vicious at such a young age! Your family will be childless..."
"Who are you scolding?" Wang Jinhua hit Luo Xia with the broom in her hand.
"You even sold your daughter, and you still say that others are evil-hearted. Don't think I don't know that you are gambling. You must have lost money. If you don't have money to sell your daughter today, you will steal money to sell the village tomorrow!"
The onlookers stepped back subconsciously, with a hint of vigilance in their eyes. It seemed that they would have to lock their doors tightly in the future. Although they didn't have much money, they still had eggs at home.
Luo Xia was very angry at everyone's reaction.
Seeing Luo Xia being beaten by Meng Qidi and her mother-in-law, a voice came from outside the crowd.
"Weren't you talking about where Jin Yue went? How did it turn into all this nonsense? Could it be that Jin Yue's disappearance is really related to..."
Meng Qidi looked over with cold eyes. The person who was speaking was very cunning, hiding behind others. She only saw a few women whispering to each other...
Someone spoke up for her, and Luo Xia instantly became energetic. She pointed at Wang Jinhua and was about to curse her.
Suddenly, her eyes rolled, she sat down on the ground, and started throwing a tantrum...
"Oh, God, please open your eyes. Wang Jinhua is so cruel that she hid my daughter. Our once happy family has been destroyed..."
As if it touched the heart, Luo Xia wiped away her tears and wondered how to make a fuss next. Since they were shameless, don't blame her!
"Dahuang, Xiaobai, come out!" Meng Qidi shouted in a low voice, and the four dogs came out from the door with eager eyes.
"Woof!"
The person who was throwing a tantrum on the ground jumped up and said, "Meng Qidi, you dare to yell, 'The dog bites me!'"
Meng Qidi sneered, "If you dare to make trouble, why shouldn't I dare to let the dog go?"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were calling each other dogs and brooms. Luo Xia didn't dare to make a fuss. She glared at Meng Qidi angrily and turned around to leave.
If she continues to make trouble, she will suffer.
"Stop! Did I let you go?"
