Han Jinling suddenly noticed that Tan Guihua was carrying a basket with pheasants and eggs on her back, which made her even more uneasy.
If these things belong to me, they should be mine; they shouldn't be hers to inherit.
The main problem is that the widow was too cunning, which caused me to miss a good opportunity to catch a pheasant.
Han Jinling felt a surge of anger rising within her as she looked at Tan Guihua.
"You shameless widow Tan, having obtained so much, you still have the nerve to take pork here? Have you no shame at all?"
Tan Guihua could only listen meekly and dared not utter a word in response to what she said.
Han Jinling has always been arrogant and domineering in the village, and few people are willing to provoke her.
The women who had gone up the mountain with Cui Yulu also felt a pang of regret. If they had persevered a little longer, they might have been able to catch pheasants and get a share of the pork.
Unfortunately, there's no going back.
However, they also received some good things by following Cui Yulu, so it seems that this daughter-in-law of the Han family is lucky.
“We not only caught pheasants, we also got a lot of chestnuts. Serves you right for giving up halfway.”
Han Chunying couldn't stand their petty behavior and rushed forward to speak up for Tan Guihua.
"Sister-in-law, show them the chestnuts we got, it'll make them drool."
Han Chunying poured the freshly picked chestnuts from her basket in front of them, which made Han Jinling feel a pang of heartache. She regretted not getting angry and following them; she could have gotten just as many chestnuts that way.
After heavy snow closes the mountain passes in winter, being able to eat hot chestnuts is enough to fill you up even if you don't eat a proper meal.
Seeing the mountain of chestnuts on the ground, Li Dacui disregarded the pain on her face and smiled more beautifully than any flower.
"Hey Cui, could you give us some? Let us have a taste."
I've never heard of chestnuts growing on mountains before. Now that they've actually found some, it would be great to have some.
Cao Jinfang glared at her eldest daughter-in-law, thinking, "This good-for-nothing, chestnuts are never as good as meat."
"Cui girl, forget about the chestnuts, give us some pork instead. Your two cousins are home, let's give them a good nourishing meal."
Han An and Han Quan are currently recovering at home from their injuries, so taking some pork back to cook them a nice meal would be a good idea.
"Grandma will be hosting a feast for the villagers tomorrow, so you should come and eat there tomorrow."
Cui Yulu said in a lighthearted tone.
Cao Jinfang and Li Dacui exchanged a glance. Their whole family would naturally come to eat tomorrow, but they still wanted to take some with them today.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean? You can't go against your brother's wishes, can you? At least when your family eats meat, you should give our family some meat broth, right?"
Listen to this, they've brought out Boss Han again. This is their trump card. As long as Liu Xiuying hears Boss Han's words, she's guaranteed to obey.
"Auntie, you can have this meat if you want, but we don't have any if you don't. We're going to use it to host a feast for the whole village tomorrow."
Liu Meie brought over four pig trotters, a pig's head, and a basin of offal, and placed them in front of them.
"You think we wouldn't take these things even if they were given to us for free? You're really underestimating us."
Li Dacui glanced at the offal; it smelled so dirty and fishy, how could anyone eat it?
"You reach out for food, and ask us for anything else. Just take it."
Han Chunying couldn't stand it anymore and said something to them.
This infuriated Cao Jinfang.
"You little brat, you're really talking awful. If your family won't teach you a lesson, I'll do it for them."
As Cao Jinfang spoke, she lunged at Han Chunying, but with her old arms and legs, she was no match for Han Chunying. Before she could even get close, Han Chunying nimbly dodged her.
He almost fell to the ground.
A major battle was about to break out. Cao Jinfang and the others had never suffered such a loss before. Ever since Cui Yulu entered the family, they had found that the main house was becoming increasingly difficult to control.
They used to give us whatever we wanted, and if they didn't give it to us, we'd fight them and they'd give it to us. Now they actually dare to challenge us.
So Li Dacui and Han Jinling exchanged a glance and quickly joined the fray. Han Jinling's target was clearly Tan Guihua.
When this person becomes unreasonable, there's no hope for them.
Tan Guihua was no match for Han Jinling, and her hair was quickly disheveled.
Li Dacui and Cao Jinfang were fighting against Han Chunying and Cui Yulu, but they both underestimated Cui Yulu's strength.
She didn't even need to lift a finger; with just two silver needles, the two people were stunned and sat there motionless.
"You, what have you done to us? Untie us right now!"
Just as Han Jinling was getting into the swing of things, she suddenly felt that half of her body was immobile and she sat down on the ground with a thud.
“This is my home, and I caught this wild boar myself. If you want it, I might give it to you if you behave well, but given how you are today, I absolutely will not give it to you.”
"Also, don't try to pressure us with our deceased grandfather. Our family has done so much for you over the years, even going hungry ourselves to give you food, but how have you treated us?"
Cao Jinfang glared fiercely at Cui Yulu: "What do you know, you outsider? You're just a female dog that Liu Xiuying bought, yet you dare to bark here and show off."
Cao Jinfang, whose only function is to move his mouth, still refuses to admit defeat.
Those who were still watching the commotion outside began to whisper among themselves upon hearing this.
Han Yu'an, who was standing to the side, was trembling with fear, as if some bad memories had been triggered.
Recently, many images have been flashing through his mind, but he doesn't know how to express them yet.
However, he felt inexplicably afraid when he saw the second wife's family.
These people had done something to me, but I can't remember what they had done to me.
