Chapter 55



In the yard, Li Cuihua saw Grandma Chi coming out and said with a smile, "Mom, where is Xiao Wanxiu? Please let her out. I have something to tell her."

"What's the matter? Just tell me if you want to say it." Grandma Chi said to Li Cuihua with a slightly gloomy face and a somewhat unhappy tone.

Li Cuihua's face darkened.

This old woman is now relying on someone to support her, so now she doesn't even show a good face to her?

Haha, what a pity! Su Maner, who used to support her, is now dead.

Su Maner is dead, and I'm sure the Su family will come and make a scene. Then the old lady and Chi Yunchen will have a hard time.

Thinking this in her heart, Li Cuihua's complexion improved and a hint of joy appeared on her face again.

She looked at Grandma Chi and said word by word: "What I want to say is a big thing. I think it would be better if Xiao Wanxiu is also present for this matter."

"Yunchen and Maner are not here, so I am the one in charge of this family. Just talk to me, the one in charge, and there is no need to talk in roundabout ways! If you want to say something, say it quickly. If you don't want to say it, get out!" Grandma Chi was holding a kitchen knife in her hand. She was peeling sweet potatoes just now.

Jiayue wants to eat steamed sweet potatoes, so she plans to steam a pot of sweet potatoes in the evening.

Looking at the knife in Grandma Chi's hand, Li Cuihua was really afraid that she would chop her down if she got angry.

So even though she was dissatisfied with her grandmother's attitude, she did not dare to make a scene as sharp as before.

She frowned and suddenly sighed, "Ah, actually I want to talk about Man'er. Mom, do you know where Man'er went today? She went to Yunxia Mountain today, and went to a place with an altitude of more than 500 meters. You know how dangerous it is to be above 500 meters. There are poisonous insects and beasts, and... that kind of dirty things."

Hearing this, Grandma Chi and Chi Yunbo all frowned and their faces suddenly darkened.

Seeing that Grandma Chi and the others looked unhappy, Li Cuihua continued, "Man'er was also unlucky. She encountered a dirty thing in the mountains, and that dirty thing ate her. Now Man'er is dead."

Grandma Chi's breathing quickened, her pupils shrank involuntarily, and a look of disbelief suddenly appeared in her eyes.

She gritted her teeth and said in a sharp voice: "Stop talking nonsense. My Man'er is a very lucky person. It is impossible for her to encounter dirty things!"

Chi Yunbo stared coldly at Li Cuihua's face and angrily said, "There are no such things as ghosts in the world. Stop lying here!"

"Haha, who is lying? My Yunhao saw the dirty thing with his own eyes, and it even chased our Yunhao. Originally, it planned to eat our Yunhao as well, but after chasing for a while, it let Yunhao go. Do you know why it let Yunhao go? Because it said that it had already eaten Su Maner, and it didn't want to eat a second person, so..."

"Get out! We don't believe your nonsense, get out!" Grandma Chi was angry, picked up a kitchen knife and rushed over to hit Li Cuihua.

Li Cuihua was afraid that the kitchen knife would chop her, so she backed away while saying, "I'm not talking nonsense, everything I said is true! Look, it's almost dark now, why hasn't Su Maner come back yet? She won't be coming back!"

Originally she had agreed to wait until dark before coming over, but she really couldn't wait any longer, so she ran over before it got dark.

"Who believes you? Get out of here!" Chi Yunbo turned around, picked up the broom in the corner, and hit Li Cuihua hard with the broom.

When Li Cuihua saw Chi Yunbo's action, she immediately scolded him: "Who are you hitting, you little bastard? I am your aunt, if you dare to hit me, then you are committing insubordination, you are..."

"You rushed into our house and acted wildly, shouldn't we kick you out?" A clear voice came from outside the courtyard gate.

When everyone heard this, they were slightly startled, and then one by one, they turned their heads to look towards the courtyard gate.

When they saw Su Maner's figure, Chi Yunbo and Chi Grandma were all delighted, and they couldn't help but reveal joy on their faces.

She’s back, she’s back, Maner is finally back.

They said, she couldn't possibly die, she couldn't possibly have such a short life.

But Li Cuihua looked at Su Maner with her eyes wide open and a look of disbelief.

How is that possible?

Why did Su Maner come back? Wasn't she... eaten by a ghost?

Su Maner walked into the yard step by step. She looked at Li Cuihua and said coldly, "If you don't act like a demon for a day, your skin will itch, right? Do you believe me or not, I will peel off your skin!"

Su Maner's face was stern at this moment, and her eyes were as cold as the icy pool in the abyss.

Li Cuihua looked at it and was so frightened that she took a step back.

She gritted her teeth and tried to reply.

However, when she saw what Su Maner was holding in her hand, her eyes lit up and greed suddenly appeared in her eyes.

Pheasants and rabbits, I didn’t expect that this woman Su Maner would bring back game again!

She counted quickly and found there were five pheasants and three rabbits!

If these things were brought to her house, she would have meat to eat during the New Year.

She quickly calculated in her mind, and walked towards Su Maner and said, "Hey, Maner, you must be tired after coming back from the mountain. Hurry up and give me the things. I will carry them for you."

How could Su Maner not see the greed in Li Cuihua's eyes?

She quickly turned to the side, glanced at Li Cuihua coldly and said, "Who wants to give you something? Get out of my house!"

Grandma Chi and Chi Yunbo also came to their senses.

They looked at the pheasants and rabbits, and then at the basket full of mushrooms on Su Maner's back. They smiled and felt happy in their hearts.

Grandma hurried over to help take over the pheasants and rabbits.

Carrying so many pheasants and rabbits was so heavy. I wonder how Maner carried them all the way back. She must be exhausted, right?

Chi Yunbo helped to take the backpack off Su Maner's back.

Su Maner took two pheasants off the vines, and then handed the remaining pheasants and rabbits to Chi Yunbo and said, "Put them in the kitchen, and I will take them to the town to sell them tomorrow."

Chi Yunbo nodded and was about to go into the house with his things.

Li Cuihua looked at Grandma Chi and said quickly, "Mom, did you sell all those pheasants and rabbits? It would be so sad to sell them all to others. Otherwise, please let me take two back."

Li Cuihua's attitude has improved now, and she has also learned to use you.

Before grandma could reply, she continued, "You don't know, Dahai has been in a bad condition these past two days, maybe because he was hurt by Yunchen and Man'er. I wanted to buy some meat for him, but you know the situation of my family, I don't have any money. So, until now, Dahai hasn't had a bite of meat. Mom, Dahai is your son after all, you must still feel sorry for him, so please let me take two pheasants back."
