When Yu Wan returned home after picking the garlic sprouts, Madam Zhao had taken a bowl of boiled chicken with bamboo shoots.
“Women wicked! Return chicken! This is not for you to eat! Brother caught him for us to eat!” Little Bruiser's angry voice came from the other side of the kitchen.
Yu Wan quickly walked through the hall. He saw Little Bruiser standing in an empty pigsty with his hands on his hips, his face red with anger. But he's too short to climb out.
Their families had long since stopped raising pigs. The pigsty was clean, but even so, Yu Wan's eyes turned cold when she saw her brother locked up here.
Yu Wan took off the bolt from the wooden board and brought her brother out. Then, he walked into the kitchen and lifted the lid of the pot to look at it. He saw a pot of boiled chicken with winter bamboo shoots had been taken until there was nothing left. “What happened? Who did this?”
Originally, Little Bruiser was simply furious. However, as soon as her sister hugged her, she felt guilty and told her everything that had happened.
After hearing Little Bruiser's words, Yu Wan realized that there was an unfulfilled marriage. The strange thing was that the Host of the body did not store such an important thing in his memory.
That Madam Zhao keeps calling her ‘my daughter-in-law’, but look what she has done. When he was unconscious, he did not come to visit him. Instead, he took the chicken and did not even greet her. He even pinched his younger brother!
It wasn't his fault that the Host didn't want to remember him before he died. If he had not forgotten such an evil woman, would he have kept her for the New Year?
“The chicken is gone... I did not watch the chicken well..” Little Bruiser said, tears welling up in his eyes. That's the chicken that you caught! It's not easy to get a chicken, but it's taken away…
Yu Wan put the garlic sprouts on the basin and patted her brother's shoulder. “Wait for me at home. I'll be right back.”
“Kak, where are you going?” Little Bruiser asked in confusion.
Yu Wan did not say anything. He walked into the kitchen, picked up the kitchen knife, and left with a cold expression.
…
On the other hand, after Madam Zhao left Yu Wan's house, she ran all the way home. Along the way, some villagers greeted him, but he ignored them.
The rich aroma of chicken soup is smelled in most villages.
Lady Zhao was originally a peasant woman from the Zhao Clan Village in the northwest. After the war broke out, the Zhao Clan Village was taken over by the enemy forces. She and her husband ran away with a pair of children. Along the way, her husband was shot dead by an arrow. She and her young children went back and forth several times before finally arriving at the Lotus Flower Village.
It was hard to make a living with her being a widow and children, fortunately Lady Zhao had a good son.
Zhao Heng was not only talented and intelligent, he was even more diligent and motivated. He was a candidate for the state-level imperial examination, and because of that, his family made an exception and obtained the household list of Lotus Flower Village.
However, their family had no adult males, and their only son, Zhao Heng, had a learning life. How could Lady Zhao bear to let her work in the fields? Madam Zhao herself was a lazy person, and the princess she raised did not have a pair of diligent hands and feet. During this time, their family relied on the Ah Wan family to support them, and even the fields were farmed by Ah Wan.
It was not entirely true that Madam Zhao was dissatisfied with her future son-in-law, but it was not entirely true that she was grateful. After all, his son was the only scholar in the village. Ah Wan, that wild girl, was lucky to be able to gather with her son!
Now, more than half the fog had spread. The people in the village started working one after another. Although they do not grow much in winter, they still have to cook and wash clothes.
When Madam Zhao stepped through the door, Zhao Baomei just woke up. Her hair was messy, and even before she opened her eyes, she could smell the alluring scent of chicken soup. He rushed out. “Mother! What is this?”
He hurriedly went to remove the lid of the jar that Madam Zhao had placed on the table, but Madam Zhao slapped him.
Lady Zhao said, “Where is your sister?”
Zhao Baomei pouted. “He went to academy.”
Although Zhao Baomei was not happy, she knew that her brother was the most important person in the family. If his brother doesn't eat, no one can eat. “Understanding, Mother,” he said with a grin.
Madam Zhao went to the kitchen to look for two empty bowls. Just as he was about to scoop up the chicken meat for his son, before he could even touch the earthen jar, he saw a bright kitchen knife cut through his wooden table!
Madam Zhao was trembling in fear!
“Yu, what do you mean ?!” Zhao Baomei, who was standing at the side, was the first to come to a realization. When he saw the murderous expression on Yu Wan's face, he was stunned.
Yu Wan could not be bothered with him. His gaze was fixed on Madam Zhao's pale face as he coldly said, “You who just went to my house?”
He came to kiss the chicken soup. He did not remember the Zhao family, nor did he remember what they looked like. However, there were only two women in the house. No matter how she looked at it, “prospective mother-in-law” is not that careless little girl.
Madam Zhao was also stunned for a moment. She did not expect Ah Wan, who usually did not even dare to breathe loudly in front of her, would dare to speak to her harshly and even use a knife!
After all, he had been oppressing Ah Wan for so many years, so he was not afraid of Ah Wan. He said domineeringly, “What are you trying to do bring the kitchen knife to my house so early in the morning! You crazy?!”
Yu Wan said coldly, “You bullied my little brother, stole my chicken, and even asked why I am here. Zhao, who's crazy?”
Zhao's? What does this poor girl call him?! Madam Zhao was instantly furious. He pointed to Yu Wan's nose and said, “You still dare to say, you bought a chicken and didn't bring it to show me your filial devotion! You eat it at home! What kind of intentions do you have? Do you still have me in your eyes .. “
It's noisy! Yu Wan could not take it anymore. Without waiting for Madam Zhao to finish speaking, she picked up the kitchen knife on the table and swung it towards Madam Zhao.
Madam Zhao jumped up and down in fear!
Zhao Baomei was no better. He had long been feared by Yu Wan's imposing demeanor. He stood there in bewilderment and watched in horror as Yu Wan grabbed Madam Zhao's hair and dragged her into the pigsty behind the house like she was dragging a sack.
The pigsty has pigs!
“Aduh!” Madam Zhao was ruthlessly thrown into a pig feed tub!
Zhao Baomei could not remember what happened after that. He only knew that by the time he regained consciousness, Yu Wan had taken out a jar of earth that gave off the scent of chicken soup.
…
Little Bruiser sat on the threshold of the hall, looking depressed. He knew that Big Brother had gone to the Zhao family, but he wasn't sure if he would get the chicken back.
Brother is like that. He gave all the good stuff to the Zhao family first. After the Zhao family used it, then the rest would be theirs.
She did not hate Big Brother because her mother said that she could not hate Big Brother and had to love him for the rest of her life.
But every now and then, she also hoped that Kak would love her…
The chicken must be over.
Little Bruiser wiped his reddened eyes miserably.
“Why are you sitting at the door on such a cold day?” A familiar voice rang out above Little Bruiser's head.
Little Bruiser stared blankly and saw Yu Wan walking towards him with the kitchen knife in one hand and the jar in the other.
