The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 19 I'm really in a hurry

Upon hearing this, Granny Fan was furious: "I've never seen anyone as heartless as you. I even spoke up for you when you moved out of the Wang family."

"help me?"

Yu Tingwan didn't believe a single word of these words.

"I appreciate the gratitude others showed me when they helped me, but do you think I don't know what your intentions are?"

“You and your aunt don’t get along, and you can’t stand to see her doing well, so you’re just hoping we fight.”

Even if she gets along well with Wang, Granny Fan will still treat her as a thorn in her side.

Yu Tingwan tugged at the corners of her lips.

She's generally easy to get along with and doesn't hold grudges. But if you really push her too far, she can retort with ten sentences for every one thing someone says.

"The silly girl suffered a lot back then and couldn't handle the shock, which is why she became mentally impaired."

“If I remember correctly, before her accident, many people wanted to marry her, and you even went to her house to try and matchmake her for the sake of your two nephews.”

"Her mother scolded you for being heartless and kicked you out."

"You've been feeling unhappy for a long time, haven't you?"

"They, a mother and daughter, depend on each other for survival, which is already difficult enough. I don't expect you to empathize, but at least show some respect! Do you think it's so great to rub salt into someone's wounds?"

"That silly girl is mentally challenged. Those people see her as easy to fool and despicable. They're no good. You're the one who's been gossiping behind her back?"

She tossed out a few words, not even glancing at Granny Fan's dark face, and prepared to go back.

The women looked at each other, completely intimidated by her fierce appearance.

But they also felt that... Yu Tingwan was right.

After all, Granny Fan's words, driven by personal motives, were indeed unpleasant.

Just then, Yu Tingwan stopped again.

Just when the women thought she hadn't said enough, Yu Tingwan took a deep breath, held up her mushroom, and calmly asked if it was poisonous.

After receiving the correct answer, Yu Tingwan returned to her old house, boiled some hot water to soak her frozen hands, and carefully applied the ointment.

She's been rubbing it on frequently these past few days, and her chilblains have improved a lot; they've stopped oozing pus.

Yu Tingwan had long since adapted to the country folk's habit of not eating lunch. These past few days, she had been extremely sleepy and taking long naps, as if she wanted to make up for all the rest she had missed in the past few years.

She lay down on the couch and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt.

When she has money in the future, she will definitely buy a thick cotton quilt.

Like... Wei Shen covered himself with such a thick blanket today! That way he wouldn't wake up freezing in the middle of the night.

The second branch of the Wei family was poor, but they were incredibly generous to their son. If his parents were still alive, they certainly would…

Yu Tingwan let out a deep breath.

She still needs to think of ways to make money.

As she pondered, the girl's breathing became even, and she drifted off to sleep without realizing it.

Yu Tingwan was awakened by the aroma coming from next door; it was almost dusk.

She took a deep breath.

It smells like stewed chicken. The aroma fills the air, powerful and irresistible, lingering around the tip of your nose.

Hui Niang was skilled in cooking. When the village head's grandson got married, he asked her to cook the banquet, and she could earn some money from it. This was originally a source of income.

However, this is a poor place, and very few people would spend money to hire a cook.

Although the two branches of the Wei family had separated, they were never truly divided.

Even the money Hui Niang earned was taken away by that old hag, Granny Wei, before she could even hold onto it.

Not to mention meat dishes, even ordinary vegetarian dishes become exceptionally delicious through her cooking.

Yu Tingwan had almost forgotten how long ago it was the last time she ate meat.

The steamed buns Aunt Wu gave me were long gone.

Yu Tingwan washed the wild vegetables and cooked them together with the mushrooms in a broken pot.

Without oil and salt, the taste naturally wouldn't be very good. Fortunately, she's not picky.

Wei Family Stewed Chicken.

Yu Tingwan ate wild vegetables and mushrooms.

The next day, the Wei family cooked fish.

Yu Tingwan ate wild vegetables and mushrooms.

On the third day, the village head chose an auspicious time and slaughtered the pig he had bought from Butcher Wu. Half the village rushed to watch the slaughter, and those with money even planned to buy some pork, the fatter the better, so they could have some oil in their bellies.

Hui Niang was also queuing at the village head's house.

The family had to be frugal with money, but she just didn't want to mistreat Erlang when it came to food.

She arrived late, and all the good, fatty meat had already been picked over.

Hui Niang held the coins in her hand, her eyes involuntarily falling on the pig intestines that were lying in the corner, ready to be chopped up and fed to the chickens.

These days, few people eat pig intestines. First, they are difficult to clean; second, people are afraid of them being contaminated with bad luck; and third, the taste is really hard to swallow.

Having nothing else to do, Yu Tingwan also went to join in the fun.

She didn't have money to buy meat, but she had her own purpose.

Li Lian was cleaning up the bloodstains in the yard when Yu Tingwan came over.

"Mother-in-law."

Li Lian had a bad feeling when she saw her.

really.

Yu Tingwan said quietly, "Two days have passed already."

Li Lian: ...

What's the rush?!
Yu Tingwan said with a sigh, "I'm really in a hurry."

Li Lian: ...

See it.

She found it both funny and infuriating.

"you……"

Just as he was about to make a joke, his voice was drowned out by the sarcastic voice in front of him.

"Isn't this my sister-in-law? You actually have money to buy meat?"

The woman with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks blocked Hui Niang's way, displaying an arrogant and superior attitude.

She had a very loud voice and showed no sign of restraint.

"Look what you two are doing! You insist on treating Ah Lang's illness, and you even stole your mother's purse."

“Your mother has been so angry with you these past few days that she hasn’t been able to eat and has lost weight. You two, on the other hand, are still eating and drinking well.”

Yu Tingwan: ...

She thought Grandma Wei was very healthy.

They come to Hui Niang's door every day to make veiled insults!

They're disturbing her!
Hui Niang had been suppressed by Zhuang Mei for years and had long since become accustomed to it. She was somewhat lacking in confidence: "Sister-in-law, don't pin the blame on me and the husband. What do you mean by 'mother's money'? That should have been our second branch's money all along."

"The Wei family hasn't divided into separate households. What do you mean by 'money from your second branch'?"

Hui Niang didn't dare to look at Zhuang Mei's face and whispered, "The two families haven't completely separated, but back then you kicked us out because you said you didn't have enough room. We've been living separately all these years."

How should houses be divided? How should land be divided? ... All of these require written agreements.

Old Mrs. Wei was biased; she lived with the eldest son's family and was reluctant to share these things. Besides, her eldest son, Wei Shoucai, was sweet-talking but lazy, while Wei Shouzhong was honest, kind, and hardworking.

Every spring, the amount of land cultivated by the grandson of the eldest son is less than that cultivated by Wei Shouzhong alone.

The Wei family needs this kind of labor.

Over the years, the harvest money that Old Lady Wei has been exchanging for has been kept in her hands. She secretly gives it to the eldest son's family as a subsidy, while the second son's family only receives the grain from the fields.

They didn't skimp on the food, after all, even a rabbit will bite when it's angry.

As a result, the eldest son's wife benefited greatly, and Zhuang Mei lived a happy life.

But no! The second wife actually resisted.

Zhuang Mei was furious when she saw that she dared to talk back.

"Incredible! My son is back, standing up straight, and he even dares to talk back!"

Hui Niang pursed her lips, lowered her head to avoid her, and started to walk away.

Can Zhuang Mei make her wish?
She immediately pushed him, saying, "Did I tell you to leave?!"

"So what if Wei Shen is back? What are you so smug about? Do you think that little bastard can get up and stand up for you?"
