Chapter 4: The tacit understanding of the five mother-in-law and daughter-in-law



"You farted!"

Before Qian Xiaolan could finish her words, she was interrupted by Sun Honghua who arrived in a hurry.

"You damn girl, you want to kill me? When did I ever say I would take you to see that witch? That's feudal superstition! Would I do something that would kill me?

I know you blame me for arranging such a marriage for you, but I am doing it for your own good!

I know you dislike Gu Laoba because he is a rough guy and want to marry someone from the city, but you also have to recognize your own identity, right?

You are an orphan girl who has only graduated from junior high school. Which city guy would want you?"

Onlookers: “…”

It sounded nice, but no one believed what Sun Honghua said. They had lived in the same village for more than ten years, and everyone knew what kind of person Sun Honghua was. It was not surprising that she would do something like hiring a fortune-teller and beat and scold her niece.

What made them curious was that Qian Xiaolan had always been timid in the past, but today she suddenly said so many words to accuse Sun Honghua and her daughter, which surprised them.

At the same time, I felt a little relieved that this child finally knew how to resist.

Qian Xiaolan saw that everyone was looking at her curiously, but she was not nervous. She sniffed and retorted to Sun Honghua:

"I don't dislike Gu Lao Ba, nor do I want to marry someone in the city.

It was my cousin who said that Gu Laoba was a rough guy who could break an iron door with one hand, and she also said that he would beat me to death in the future.

The rumors that I won’t marry Gu Lao Ba are also spread by you because you want me to have a hard time in my husband’s family in the future.”

After she explained this, everyone understood, and Hu Guifen in the crowd also lost the unhappiness she had felt since last night when she heard that her son was disliked.

Sun Honghua was unhappy when she saw this. She shouted, "Nonsense! Your cousin is still young and wouldn't say such things. Don't slander her casually!"

As Sun Honghua spoke, she subconsciously raised her hand to hit someone. She noticed everyone's shining eyes from the corner of her eye, and immediately realized that they were outside. She put her hand down awkwardly and glared at Qian Xiaolan.

Qian Xiaolan was worried that she would lose control of her temper and start a fight with Sun Honghua in public, so she dodged and hid behind a woman who was watching the fun, then stuck her head out to continue her rebuttal:

"I'm not talking nonsense. My cousin said that it was because Gu Lao Ba had a bad temper and couldn't find a wife at his age that he was willing to spend a high gift of 100 yuan to marry me.

She also said that I should be grateful that your family is willing to take in a money-losing guy like me who has brought unhappiness to my parents.

When I get married, I will bring back more things from my husband’s family to honor you. Otherwise, you won’t support me and let me be bullied to death in my husband’s family.”

Everyone was stunned. Qian Mudan was indeed the mother of Sun Honghua. What she said was exactly the same as her mother's.

The woman in front of Qian Xiaolan was so angry that she rushed over and hit Sun Honghua:

"Nonsense! You two are just talking nonsense! We, Lao Ba, will never hit anyone!"

Since Hu Guifen went up to beat people, her three daughters-in-law naturally would not just stand by and watch, so they all rushed up and helped their mother-in-law to beat people.

"Sun Honghua, you are shameless. It's not enough that your family has taken all the things from Xiaolan's parents. You also want to take advantage of our Gu family?"

"Bah, you stinky bitch, why don't you go and find out whether it's so easy to take advantage of our Gu family?"

Sun Honghua was stunned before she could even react. It was only then that Qian Xiaolan realized that the person she was using as a shield was her future mother-in-law, Hu Guifen.

Now seeing that the four of them, the mother-in-law and the daughters-in-law, all rushed up to fight, I naturally joined the battle.

The eldest sister-in-law of the Gu family hugged Sun Honghua's left body and left hand from behind, the second sister-in-law of the Gu family held down Sun Honghua's right body and right hand, and the third sister-in-law of the Gu family sat on the ground and hugged Sun Honghua's legs.

Hu Guifen beat Sun Honghua, Qian Xiaolan handed her a stick, and then pretended to step on Sun Honghua a few times accidentally.

Sun Honghua screamed in pain, and the onlookers were so stunned that they forgot to step forward to stop the fight.

The five future mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law teamed up tacitly to beat up Sun Honghua. It felt so good.

When they had let out enough air and were pulled apart by the crowd, the five of them smiled at each other and all felt refreshed.

Hu Guifen is the most protective person. Qian Xiaolan had helped her in the past, and now she is the daughter-in-law she chose. She gave half of the betrothal gift yesterday, so she is considered half of her family. Naturally, she will not allow her to be bullied by Sun Honghua again.

Although she had already beaten the man up, she was still worried that after Qian Xiaolan returned, Sun Honghua's family would still find ways to bully her.

So she said, "Eldest wife, second wife, go call your husband, your father, and your second uncle over!

Third daughter-in-law, go and call Qian Changcai over."

As soon as she finished speaking, someone said, "You don't have to go. Someone has already gone to call the captain and the others."

Hu Guifen didn't say anything else and turned her gaze to Qian Xiaolan.

Qian Xiaolan realized it belatedly and felt embarrassed. She blushed and apologized: "Aunt, I'm sorry! I didn't notice that you were standing behind me before."

Hu Guifen patted her arm indifferently: "It's okay, you didn't notice that you were able to hide behind your aunt, which means that you have recognized our Gu family from the bottom of your heart, and your aunt is happy.

You are meant to be a member of our Gu family. Look how well we cooperated just now."

Qian Xiaolan was speechless and her smile became even more awkward.

Hu Guifen pushed the loose hair aside for her, looked at the bloody wound with heartache, and assured her:

"Don't worry, Xiaolan. The men in our Gu family love their wives very much. Lao Ba will never touch you. Don't listen to the nonsense of those malicious people.

The blood on the wound has scabbed over. You must have bled a lot before, right? After this is settled, I'll take you to the clinic to get some medicine to apply. It's hot now, don't let it fester."

From childhood to adulthood, except for the dean's mother, no one has ever cared about her like this. Qian Xiaolan sniffed unconsciously.

Fortunately, the captain arrived at this time and relieved her discomfort.

The captain's surname was Gu, and he was Gu Yanqing's uncle. As soon as he arrived, he yelled at the crowd:

"What are you all doing here? Don't you want to farm? Don't you want the work points? Don't you want the food? Get out of here, get back to work!"

Everyone was still very afraid of the stern-faced captain, and after he yelled at them, they all returned to the areas they were responsible for.

It’s just that everyone held the farm tools in their hands, but their necks and ears were stretched out.

The captain ignored them and looked at Sun Honghua, whose face was intact but she was lying on the ground, frowning and asking Hu Guifen:

"Sister-in-law, what's going on?"

Qian Xiaolan took the initiative to step forward and interrupted: "Captain, I'm sorry, it's all because of me that Aunt Gu took it out on me. Don't blame her for being disunited."

Without waiting for the captain's response, she explained the whole cause and effect of the matter.

She also briefly described her situation in Sun Honghua's home over the years, emphasizing that Sun Honghua's family did not allow her to do any work and did not allow her to resist, otherwise they would beat her together.

Upon hearing this, the captain looked at Sun Honghua with murderous eyes.
