“Yuanyuan, yes, it’s your Aunt Li Feng’e looking for your mother.
Aunt, Aunt just came to see, hehe, just to see.”
Li Feng’e disdainfully glared at the utterly useless Lady Ma, cursing Xiao He’s mother under her breath for miscommunicating the message, while she stealthily edged closer to Lady Liu.
The knife in Lin Yuan’s hand was real, and she didn’t believe the Little Disaster Star would dare to slash around right beside her own mother.
“Yuanyuan, put down the knife in your hand, what does a grown girl need with a knife?” Originally, Li Feng’e didn’t dare to call her Little Disaster Star to her face anymore, but the scare she got from that kitchen knife almost made her slip up again.
Lin Yuan wouldn’t buy into her nonsense.
She looked at her mother and saw her face full of difficulty; she guessed right away that these two had come to bully her mother while she was not at home.
“What are you afraid of, Aunt?
I was just thinking of making something nice for you when you came!” While Lin Yuan said this cheerfully, she played with the kitchen knife in her hand.
The shiny blade twirled adeptly in her grasp, spinning with all sorts of fancy flourishes.
However, Lady Ma and the other were in no mood to admire the spectacle, as they were scared witless, their lips trembling uncontrollably.
But when they heard what Lin Yuan said next, their legs turned to jelly.
“However, we don’t really have anything nice at home to entertain Aunt and Aunt Li Feng’e.
How about this, I’ll just casually toss this knife, and whoever it lands on, I’ll cut a piece of their flesh off to boil for soup, how’s that?”
No sooner had she finished asking than in the instant Lady Ma and Li Feng’e were stunned speechless, Lin Yuan suddenly threw the knife forward and bellowed fiercely, “Catch the knife!”
“Ah!”
“Ah!”
Lady Ma was the first to scream, clutching her head and rushing outside.
Li Feng’e had more nerve, but first Lin Yuan’s knife scared her, and then Lady Ma’s scream startled her until she was also scared out of her wits, screaming and clutching her head as she fled.
However, her luck was not as good as Lady Ma’s; she hit a wall unexpectedly and immediately there arose a wailing like slaughtering a pig.
Watching the two flee in disgrace, Lin Yuan caught the knife and sneered coldly, while Xiao Linshuang, the most innocent of all, clapped and laughed heartily, shouting, “Aunt, Aunt Li Feng’e, don’t leave, stay for a bowl of soup before you go! freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Haha!”
After sheathing the knife, Lin Yuan finally asked Lady Liu what had happened.
Lady Liu reluctantly smiled and said, “After the family split that day, your grandparents fell ill again.
Your Aunt and Aunt Li Feng’e are insisting it’s because of you…”
Lady Liu hesitated as she looked at Da Ya, then fell silent.
However, Lin Yuan understood.
Certainly, the old couple were blaming her for bringing sickness upon them again, and somehow Lady Ma and Li Feng’e got wind of the news that she had gone into town that day and seized the chance to come and demand silver from her mother while she was away.
Humph, seeking money for treatment, when in truth they were merely upset about only getting two taels of silver during the division.
It hasn’t been that many days, and here they are, eagerly chasing it down!
Lin Yuan felt irritated.
Couldn’t they live peacefully after the family division?
Just for two taels of silver, they chased her relentlessly.
What if they knew she had more than fifty taels of silver now?
Wouldn’t they mobilize their entire family to tear down their house?
No, if today was the last time, so be it, but if it happened again, she would have to make a big scene!
After wrestling with these two all morning, Lady Liu was exhausted.
Lin Yuan quickly told her mother to rest well, and asked Lin Wei to boil some hot water.
Then she hurried out to move things from Lin Fugui’s house.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out, she saw Lin Fugui coming over with an ox cart.
Aunt Lin hadn’t gone home at all; instead, he had been waiting nearby.
Seeing that Lady Ma and the other had left, he came over to help.
Lin Yuan knew that another reason Aunt Lin hadn’t left was to make sure they weren’t taken advantage of again.
She instantly felt a warmth in her heart.
With his help, she moved things into the house.
She wanted to give him some baked buns in return, but Lin Fugui wouldn’t take anything and headed back home with his ox cart.
Lin Yuan watched his figure disappearing into the distance, filled with gratitude and pondering ways to repay the kindness.
When she had money, she would definitely not forget those who had been good to them.
Of course, those who had been bad to them would be etched even more firmly in her memory!
