Old Lady Wang said, "Girl Tang, if you were my granddaughter, I would have beaten you to death long ago. You are so ignorant and don't know how to respect your elders. You are also such a spendthrift."
Tang Shiyan stood there and said slowly, "You guys like to stand up for others so much that you'll even talk about the chickens passing by."
"When did you become so kind? Why are you still pretending?"
"Aren't you tired? Aren't you thirsty? You can't even take care of your own family affairs all day long, and you still have the time to meddle in other people's affairs."
"Since you are so considerate, why not give them some of your food? You are all elderly anyway, and you won't die if you eat less."
"You are so good at speaking human language, but when I was in that family before, they made me do heavy and tiring work every day."
"My hands were completely raw from washing clothes outside in cold water in the middle of winter. They didn't even give me food to eat, and they either beat me or scolded me."
"I sleep in the firewood room every day, and even my quilt is full of holes. Why haven't you ever spoken up for me and told them not to treat me like that?"
"They have such a big family and everyone is healthy, but they don't know how to earn money to support the family."
"Why are you looking for me, the one who was separated? I believe you all saw it when we separated."
"They gave me nothing, not even the clothes they were wearing, not even a tattered quilt. Now that they see I'm doing well, they think of me again."
"They were so ruthless back then, not even worrying about whether I'd have food to eat, a place to live, or whether I'd be cold if I moved out alone."
"I am a person who holds grudges. This is how they treated me in the past, and I am just returning the favor now."
"Besides, Tang Zehuai and Tang Zeyu are two strong men, but they just idle away all day and don't go to work. Now they know they have no food to eat. It's all their own fault."
"You don't want me to go back and continue to work like a slave for them, working hard to earn money to support their useless family, and if I'm not careful, they'll beat me up again."
"I've died once, and now I'm the fearless Tang Shiyan. Don't hang around me for no reason in the future, and don't accuse me of being ignorant and disrespectful."
"It was because I was too soft-hearted before that I was bullied, beaten and scolded by them. I was almost sold to the town to marry Sun Mingliang."
"So you must be a heartless person. If you are too kind to others, you will be cruel to yourself."
"Why do you have to be so hard on yourself? I just like seeing you guys dislike me but can't get rid of me."
"And don't try to use moral blackmail on me. It won't work on me. And don't try to reason with me. I'm not one for reason."
Tang Shiyan whispered in Tang Jianguo and Feng Lihong's ears, "Stop acting in front of me. Don't I know what kind of people you are?"
"If you want to extort money or things from me, I tell you, don't even think about it."
"And don't think I don't know that I'm not your biological child. If it weren't for the fact that you raised me to this age."
"I've already reported you to the police station for stealing children. You'd better save your energy and quit while you're ahead. Don't mess with me again, or I'll make you go back lying down."
Tang Jianguo and Feng Lihong's eyes widened immediately. How did this girl know this? They didn't seem to have mentioned this matter to her face.
No wonder this damn girl has become so powerful now, without any family affection left.
Tang Shiyan: "Since you have time to come here to make trouble, why not go to town to see your good granddaughter, your good daughter? Isn't Sun Mingliang's family fishing?"
"I've been married for so long, and I haven't seen you bring back some fish to eat. Maybe Sun Mingliang has tortured you to the point of you being unrecognizable."
"It's been so long, you should go and take care of her. Don't let her be tortured to death and then you can just wait to collect her body."
When the two heard what Tang Shiyan said, they suddenly became depressed, and Tang Shiyan left in a cool manner.
When Meng Huilan saw this scene, she thought that this girl Tang had become really bold and domineering. It seemed that her previous worries were unnecessary.
The team leader said, "Why don't you all hurry up and get to work? Don't you think you'll be less anxious if you have a little food to eat?"
The others had no choice but to go to work quickly, and while they were working, they were still talking among themselves.
They said that Tang Shiyan is no longer the gentle and weak Tang Shiyan of the past, and they almost don’t recognize her.
Old Lady Wang, Old Lady Sun, and Old Lady Liu were turning over sweet potato vines together. Old Lady Wang said, "Why has this girl Tang become so powerful now?"
Old Lady Liu: "Needless to say? It must be because she suffered so much torture and bullying in that family before that she has become so heartless now."
"Do you feel something is wrong? Before, Tang was bullied every day while working in that house. She didn't dare to say a word. Look at her now. Who dares to provoke her?"
Old Lady Sun: "That's because the suffering and hurt she suffered before made her wake up suddenly."
"Now that she's able to earn money and has built a house, she's definitely going to become stronger and won't let that family bully her anymore."
"That family deserves it. Who told them to treat Miss Tang like that? Their two sons do nothing but have fun and gamble. They deserve to have no food to eat because of scum like that."
Tang Shiyan didn't care what others said. She locked the door, carried her backpack and walked towards the back mountain.
She had to go to the mountains to pick up some firewood, otherwise in the middle of winter, when others saw that she had little firewood, they would think she didn't want to make a fire.
Tang Shiyan quickly arrived at the back mountain. She looked at the time and saw that it was still early, so she walked deeper into the mountains.
Let’s see if we can catch some pheasants or rabbits. When that person wakes up, we’ll make him some soup. He must be well nourished now that he has been badly injured.
After walking for a while, she found that the branches in front of her were moving, so she walked in the direction.
She found a few wild rabbits, kept one to take home and put the rest into the space.
Just after finishing off the wild rabbit, Tang Shiyan saw a lot of medicinal herbs. She waved her hand and put all the herbs into the space.
It seems that I have to go to the town and the black market again in a day or two, otherwise the medicinal herbs and wild animals in the space will overflow.
Tang Shiyan walked around and looked around. After a while, she found a few more ginsengs. One of the big ones looked like it might be quite old.
She thought that this ginseng might be sold for thousands of dollars, and the other small ginsengs would be planted by Xiaotian on the black soil in the space, and they could be sold for a lot of money.
Just as she was about to leave the mountains, a few pheasants came out from her left. She also kept one and took it back to stew it in the evening.
Maybe that person will wake up at night. Tang Shiyan thought that today's trip was not in vain. She got so many medicinal herbs, pheasants and rabbits.
