The next morning, Wan Qing also went to the fields.
Taking advantage of the fact that the other members of the Han family were not paying attention, he approached Sun Yihua and said, "Second sister-in-law, you know Yanru's face, right? It's even worse today. Do you think that because she has done so many bad things, this might be... her punishment?"
Sun Yihua didn't believe that the other party had come to chat with her.
After all, back in the Han family, the third son's family followed the eldest son's family and often said that she was a barren hen and that her two children were a money-losing burden.
Although she retorted with insults at the time, she will remember the matter concerning her child for the rest of her life.
This person who came to see her out of the blue must have some ulterior motive.
Sun Yihua glanced at Wan Qing pointing to the sky and then looked away: "We don't advocate feudal superstitions now, so let's not talk about these things anymore. If there's nothing else, let's get to work."
"Second sister-in-law, aren't you curious about what happened yesterday..." Wan Qing blurted out all her speculations about Han Yanru not being able to find the items, as well as the news of the Han family's decline.
The reason she dared to speak out was because she wasn't afraid that Sun Yihua would spread the word.
Even if Sun Yihua tells the truth, she will deny it to the death, and she has no evidence to prove that she said it. In the end, only Sun Yihua will suffer.
Having lived together for over a decade, Sun Yihua was perfectly capable of seeing through her partner's little schemes.
No matter what she said after that, Sun Yihua didn't respond.
After speaking for a while, Wan Qing saw that the other party didn't respond, so she glared at him fiercely, turned around, and went back to her work.
After Wan Qing left, Sun Yihua sped up her work and returned home almost an hour earlier than before.
Looking at her eldest daughter who was cooking, she walked over with a smile and said, "Xinyi, I have something to tell you..."
Gu Rong had just woken up when she heard the noise outside, so she rubbed her eyes and came out.
Watching the mother and daughter talking, Gu Rong simply nodded, squatted down to wash up, and listened to their conversation.
I've grown quite fond of Gu Rong and Sun Yihua after spending these past few days together.
And I also know that this girl isn't a gossip.
She didn't hold back and repeated everything Wan Qing had said that morning to Han Xinyi: "Han Yanru committed evil deeds, and now she's getting her comeuppance. How satisfying!"
Over the years living with the Han family, even if she didn't tell them some things, she knew most of the things because they had lived together for so many years.
The prey on the mountain, though plentiful, also reproduces.
But as Han Yanru went up the mountain, she captured more and more animals, and went more and more frequently. She was afraid that they would be wiped out.
She's been arresting fewer and fewer people lately, yet so many things have happened; she's incredibly happy about it.
Yesterday, her daughter said that Han Yanru was the one who caused the trouble on her wedding day, and almost ruined her daughter's good marriage.
If it weren't for Han Yanru's disfigured face and the trouble at home, making trouble at this time would have been inappropriate, and she would have wanted to tear Han Yanru's mouth apart.
I heard what Wan Qing said today, and although I'm not sure if it's true or not, it's still a happy thing to hear.
I couldn't resist coming home early to talk to my daughter and have some fun together.
Although she was happy to hear the news, Han Xinyi was also worried: "Mother, the Han family has nothing now, what will your future hold..."
These past few days, the Gu family's banquet hasn't been finished, but she can still use that as an excuse to let her parents and sister eat at home.
But this feast will only last a few more meals, and with no more money coming in, the Han family simply can't afford to buy food.
Grandma already looked down on their family; even though they were rich before, they didn't give them much to eat.
Now that we have neither money nor food, how much will our parents actually get?
Seeing her daughter's worry, Sun Yihua patted her head and said, "We haven't had anyone to take care of you all these years, but we still managed to raise you. Don't worry so much, just live your life."
Han Xinyi thought for a moment and couldn't help but ask, "Mother, why don't you separate the family?"
Although she also wanted to separate from the family, she couldn't just say that casually.
Sun Yihua tapped her daughter on the head and glared at her: "What nonsense are you talking about? If you divide the family property while your grandmother is still alive, the villagers will talk behind your back for the rest of their lives."
Han Xinyi sighed: "Mother, our family has a bad reputation. How many times have we been gossiped about over the years? Why bother with these things?"
Sun Yihua hesitated for a moment, then shook her head: "Your father and I are old, so we'll just let it go."
Life is good as it is now. Once Xinyun gets married, we won't care anymore.
Han Xinyi became anxious: "Mother."
She knew her daughter cared about her, but they weren't able to separate the family property right now.
Their daughter was already married, and they didn't want to be a burden. Sun Yihua smiled and said dismissively, "Alright, alright, hurry up and cook. Your father and Xiaoxing should be back soon."
Although she felt sorry for her parents, she only earned a few work points each day and still had to rely on Gu Xing to support her, so Han Xinyi didn't say anything more.
After lunch, during the midday break, Han Xinyi pulled Gu Xing back to her room: "Xing, I want to go to work in the fields. I'll go with you tomorrow."
Gu Xing didn't understand why things had suddenly changed, even though they had already been agreed upon: "Why are you thinking of going to work in the fields?"
Han Xinyi was a little embarrassed, but thinking of her parents and younger sister, she said, "You know about the Han family's situation. I want my parents to separate and move out."
My parents didn't have any money, so I was thinking of earning more work points so that even if we didn't build a new house after the New Year, we could still get a thatched hut to live in.
If a woman marries into the man's family, all the work points she earns belong to the man.
Gu Xingren is a good person, and Gu Xingren is aware of her family's situation, so she probably won't refuse.
She wasn't the kind of person who couldn't see things clearly, and she didn't take advantage of Gu Xingren's easy-going nature to bully him.
She was thinking that once her parents moved out, she would work hard to earn more work points to make up for the Gu family's situation.
Gu Xing remained silent, making Han Xinyi somewhat uneasy and unsure of his thoughts.
