Why is it them in Chapter 103?
Aunt Liu's eyes darted around, and a possibility came to mind: "Husband, is it possible that the big fool has been pretending to be stupid all along, just to get rid of our Liu family?"
Uncle Liu shook his head in bewilderment: "No way, that idiot was born stupid. She couldn't speak until she was five years old, and she was a late walker. Everyone in the village said she was stupid, her parents said she was stupid, we thought she was stupid too, my older brother and sister-in-law thought she was stupid too. My sister-in-law threw her into the pigsty, and she didn't resist. She slept in the pigsty without crying or making a fuss, slept with the pigs, and ate pig feed. If she's not stupid, I think she's something else entirely."
Aunt Liu still thought that the big fool was pretending to be stupid: "Husband, think about it again. When the big fool is at home, doesn't she do whatever we ask her to do? I ask her to wash clothes, empty the chamber pot, start a fire, or go up the mountain to collect firewood, and she does it all. What does that mean? It means she's not stupid and can understand human speech. Think about it carefully."
Uncle Liu thought about it carefully and realized it made sense: "Oh my, how come I didn't think of that? The fact that the idiot can understand us means she's not stupid. Oh my, we've all been fooled by her, that damned brat! No wonder Bai Zilin is with the idiot, he knew she wasn't stupid, she's pretty, and she speaks nicely. Damn it, he got a wife for free! Oh no, I have to go find Dad. We can't let Bai Zilin get a wife like that."
Liu Lao Er got up from the kang (a heated brick bed), put on his shoes, and got out of bed. As soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy and lightheaded, and his stomach was rumbling.
Aunt Liu gritted her teeth and climbed off the kang (a heated brick bed): "You hurry up and go. This time I'll go with you to find the idiot. I have plenty of ways to make her admit it. She used to be most afraid of me!"
"Alright." Uncle Liu came to his father's room and explained his suspicions. After listening, Old Man Liu also realized that the big fool wasn't stupid at all; he had been pretending all along. This infuriated him: "You son of a bitch! I was wondering why that brat seemed a little off; it turns out she was faking it. That son of a bitch Bai Zilin is no better; he didn't even tell us. You and your older brother go now. If your wife wants to go, take her with you. Have your older brother take your sister-in-law with him too!"
Liu Lao Er nodded: "I'll go call them right away."
Old Mrs. Liu rolled her triangular eyes and grinned, showing her yellow teeth, and said, "I'll go with you. If that brat doesn't admit it and keeps pretending to be stupid, I'll slap her across the face!"
Old Man Liu leaned against the wall and waved his hand casually at her: "Go if you want. That brat is afraid of you. Maybe you'll be in charge."
Grandma Liu hurriedly put on her shoes and went down to the ground, following her two sons and their wives to Erdaogou Village. The two brothers knew Liu Ye's family. When they arrived at Liu Ye's house, they saw that the dilapidated house had been turned into a five-room foundation. So the eldest brother went to the village to inquire where Liu Ye was living now.
After making inquiries, Boss Liu learned that Liu Ye lived at Bai Zilin's house. He also knew that Bai Zilin was the one who led Da Shazi into the village. After hearing what Liu Ye said and the clothes she changed, he was now certain that Liu Ye was Da Shazi.
He shared the information he had gathered with the three of them, and Aunt Liu immediately clapped her hands happily and said, "See, I guessed right! I knew a fool couldn't die so easily!"
Uncle Liu gave his wife a thumbs up: "My wife is so smart. What are we waiting for? Let's go find that brat and settle the score."
The four of them immediately arrived at Bai Zilin's door. The eldest Liu scoffed at Liu Wangshi, "Knock on the door, you idiot! You don't even know if your own daughter is an idiot, what are you living for!"
Liu Wangshi, feeling aggrieved, went to knock on the door, venting all her anger on it by banging on it loudly, "bang bang bang, bang bang bang."
Hearing the knocking, Liu Ye sat up from the kang (a heated brick bed) and looked out the window. Who could it be? Could it be Wang Tieniu?
"Who is it? I'll know once I look," she said, getting out of bed, putting on her shoes, and calling out, "Who is it?"
When Madam Liu heard Liu Ye's voice, it was soft, sweet, and particularly pleasant to hear. This was nothing like her silly husband. Even if he wasn't silly anymore, his voice couldn't be this pleasant. She looked timidly at Liu Laoda and said, "Husband..."
With a fierce glare and his triangular eyes, Boss Liu grabbed her by the collar and threw her aside, angrily cursing, "Useless trash, get out of here!"
Aunt Liu curled her lips, a look of schadenfreude on her face: "Brother, let me do it. Oh dear, this family would fall apart without me."
Liu Laoda stepped aside, and Liu Ershen came to the door and knocked twice: "Open the door, it's me, your second aunt, Liu Ye. We already know that you are my silly girl. Your second aunt has come to see you. Please open the door quickly. Your second aunt has not seen you for so long and has missed you so much..."
Liu Ye blinked twice in shock. Aunt Liu, why is she here? And what did she mean by those words? What did she mean by saying that she already knows she is a silly girl?
No, they might be trying to bomb her. She quickly peeked through the crack in the door to see who was there. Oh ho, her silly parents were here too, and that blockhead Liu Lao Er was here as well. Quite a few people had come. She decided to go out and see what they were up to.
Liu Ye reached into her pocket, took out a sharp woodcutter's knife, opened the gate with two quick movements, and calmly stepped out of the courtyard with her right foot.
Aunt Liu, Madam Liu, and the two Liu brothers stared in shock at the beautiful Liu Ye. She had fair skin, delicate features, a slender figure, and wore a pure cotton long dress without a single patch. Standing there, she exuded an air of authority, like a young lady from a wealthy family, and had nothing to do with being a fool.
Aunt Liu was the first to recover. She looked at Liu Ye with a grin and said, "Oh my, Aunt Liu never knew that my silly girl was so beautiful! Oh my, husband, come and see, your niece looks just like our Xiangxiang!"
Liu Ye thought to herself, "Look at your grandma's legs! I'm so much prettier than you. Your Liu Xiangxiang looks like you, like a rat that's become a spirit, with a pointed mouth, monkey cheeks, and rat eyes."
Uncle Liu nodded in agreement: "Xiang, he really looks like our Xiangxiang, they're both so good-looking..."
Liu Ye didn't want to listen to their nonsense and asked directly, "Who I look like and whether I'm good-looking or not is none of your business. If you have something to say, then spit it out; if not, then get lost!"
When Liu Laoda heard her speak so rudely, he raised his hand to hit her, but Liu Ershu quickly stopped him: "Brother, calm down. Your niece isn't stupid anymore. You should be happy. Don't hit her so easily. Look how scared you've made the child!"
The eldest brother snorted coldly, still glaring fiercely at Liu Ye. Uncle Liu looked at Liu Ye with a grin and said, "Liu Ye, your second uncle already knows you're a silly girl. Stop pretending. Your father has already asked around in the village. When Bai Zilin brought you into the village, you looked like a complete idiot. You only changed your clothes and started talking later. Even if you deny it to the death, we still know you're our family's silly girl."
