The village where the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law settled was far away from the county town, and it took two ox carts most of the day to get there.
Moreover, the house where the two lived was far from any village or shop, and it took a long time to see a house.
"Isn't this a nice place?" Xu opened the door, breathed in the fresh air, and had an expression of enjoyment on her face.
Mrs. Lu was extremely disgusted. "What a shabby place you found. Change it! I don't live here. There is no one around here!"
"Right here!"
After Xu finished speaking, she went to pack up her belongings.
Mrs. Lu felt that after her son's death, Mrs. Xu, her daughter-in-law, had changed. If she didn't establish her authority, she would really regard the family name Xu as her own!
Looking around, Lu pulled out a wooden hammer and hit Xu on the back.
Unexpectedly, Xu used a kitchen knife to push back, staring at him and shouting, "You still want to hit me! Your son is dead, how dare you hit me?"
Mrs. Lu didn't expect that the woman would suddenly go so crazy, and she burst into tears out of fear.
"Why are you crying? Isn't this your own fault?"
Xu had a strange expression on her face. She held the knife and forced Lu to retreat step by step. "It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could I not have children? If it weren't for you, how could my eldest daughter be kidnapped? If it weren't for you, Zou Cai wouldn't have died!"
When she was in the county town, Xu was bullied by Lu all day long. She gave birth to a daughter as her first child and was not welcomed. She was ordered to buy medicinal wine for Lu late at night, but she was abducted.
Xu finally got pregnant with her second child, but was asked by Lu to wash quilt covers in winter. As a result, she lost the baby and became ill.
From that day on, Mrs. Lu would always beat and scold her for not being able to have children. Mrs. Xu lived in fear for several years.
Lu heard the last sentence clearly, his eyes widened and he asked, "What did you say? Zou Cai will not die either? What do you mean?"
Xu sat with her back to the sunset and chuckled, "I told the Huang family's wife that there was money in the family. I knew that Huang Jia owed money a long time ago, so I told him in front of Huang Jia before I left that Zou Cai had money on him."
"In the past two years, every time the two of them went out for a drink, I would always put some money in their pockets and hinted at them. I never expected that Huang Jia, this coward, would not dare to take action until this time. I saw him crush a cat to death many years ago, and I have been betting on him. I have been on good terms with the Huang family over the years, and it is not easy to persuade Huang Jia to continue gambling."
Lu was stunned and could only murmur, "Why? Ah Cai is so good to you..."
Xu hummed lightly and said, "Zou Cai is good to me. He always thinks of me when he is outside. He is also very obedient when asked to do anything on weekdays. I didn't expect that such a big man would be so good to his wife. I also didn't expect that the mother-in-law who was approachable before marriage would become a vexing ghost after marriage."
"I treated you badly, so you killed me!" Lu collapsed and said, "Why did you harm Ah Cai?"
Xu's smile became even brighter, "Of course, it's to see you like this now!"
"Hahaha!"
"You damned woman, you're jealous of Zou Cai for treating me well. Even if he just smiled at me once, you wouldn't be happy."
"The greatest torture for someone like you is not to kill you, but to let your good son die because of you. Remember, if it weren't for you, Zou would not have died."
Lu rushed forward and tried to pounce on Xu, but Xu simply pulled out a stick and hit her unconscious.
When Lu woke up again, her hands and feet were tied.
"Just kill me." Lu said with a look of despair.
Xu brought her some water and said, "You don't want to die."
Mrs. Lu took a sip of water and said in a sad voice, "Acai treated you so well, how could you bear it?"
"I did feel a little reluctant at first," Xu said calmly, "I originally wanted to set the house on fire and kill the three of us together, but then I thought, I've been too cowardly in my life. If I don't take revenge, I won't be able to rest in peace even after death, so I had no choice but to kill him."
Mrs. Lu gnashed her teeth and said, "You are mentally ill. You are telling me this. Aren't you afraid that I will tell others?"
"It doesn't matter if you know it, and it doesn't matter if you complain. Everyone knows that you are a wicked mother-in-law. No one will believe it. Even if they do, there is no evidence. I didn't kill the person, and I didn't steal the money. The officials can't do anything to me."
Lu said viciously, "You shouldn't have told me, you will regret it!"
Xu said unconcernedly, "The last link of the whole plan is to tell you the whole thing. If I don't let you know, what's the point of what I did before? You will never know that you killed your eldest son. If I can't make you suffer, then I might as well kill you directly. Don't you think I'm right?"
Mrs. Lu's head hung down like a dying person. Mrs. Xu stroked her head gently and said with a smile, "The second half of my life is my turn."
Song Yuehua felt depressed.
Li Dayan was originally only to be detained for three months, so she just had to look after him. Once Li Dayan came out, Grandma Mu would return him to him as he was. At least she did not owe him anything. But if it was a year, then the situation would be different.
Now that everything has finally gotten better for Mrs. Mu, let alone the money for medicine, even if Mrs. Tian is removed from her job, I'm afraid her life will go back to how it was before.
Song Yuehua covered her cheek with her hands, sighed heavily, and had to go to the school to ask Zhang Dandan to bring Gouwazi over.
When Gou Wazi came over, he poured himself a cup of tea and said, "You found me at the right time. I'm going to visit some neighboring counties tomorrow and may not be back for a while."
It seems that this business is taking off.
