A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 273 Wang Mei's Combat Power Soars

So what bad luck they've encountered that they keep attracting all sorts of oddballs?

"Is Third Sister-in-law alright? Why don't you help me feed the pigs?"

Her third sister-in-law's eyes immediately turned even redder, and her expression showed a hint of disbelief, as if she hadn't expected that she would add to her pain when she was confiding in her.

"I have things to do at home, there are so many of you, you don't need me."

Wang Mei gave a forced smile: "Then you go ahead with your work, Third Sister-in-law, I won't keep you any longer."

She knew that although her third sister-in-law was hardworking, she was also quite shrewd.

Besides, Wang Mei didn't dare to actually make her do any work, otherwise the village would soon be filled with complaints from Third Sister-in-law.

But thinking about Liu Hong, Wang Mei felt that her third sister-in-law's tendency to cry easily, her miserable appearance, and her constant complaining were not unbearable.

At most, we'll see each other less often in the future.

Sigh... I feel like my good fortune is being squandered by her even if I see her just once more.

Wang Mei at least gave her a bag of white sugar to take back with her.

Yun Jiao: "My third cousin's wife cries so much."

Wang Mei: "Don't talk to her too much in the future, that's just how she is."

Talking is exhausting.

The pigs had been fed, but Yunlin River hadn't arrived yet, so Wang Mei simply took a few children and two elderly people to gather pig feed.

Anyway, I'm never going to be idle.

With adults around, there's no fear of running into troublemakers.

Unfortunately, on the way, I ran into Liu Hong, who was eating sunflower seeds and chatting with two gossipy women.

The two people chatting with Liu Hong were notorious gossips in Wangjia Village.

The moment they appeared, the three men stared at them with meaningful eyes.

"Oh, Meizi's back. Things are different now that the family is doing well. She doesn't even greet your sister-in-law properly anymore."

"That's right, you've gotten so cocky. You're even bullying your nephew. You can't let him be like this. You have to teach him properly, or he'll never change. If he goes to someone else's house and hits their child, the adults will just say that his mother is bad at raising him and that he has no manners."

Clearly, Liu Hong has already embellished and spread yesterday's events.

Yun Jiao: I want to rush up and fight.

However, at this moment, she was being held by her aunt, baring her teeth and looking like a cat with its fur standing on end.

Cute yet fierce.

Wang Mei finally managed to hold the little guy down.

Her daughter, Jiaojiao, is as difficult to massage as a fish in the sea.

Fortunately, Jiaojiao didn't exert any force.

"Jiaojiao, don't move, watch me."

Although she had married out of the village, she still knew about the situation of some people there.

“Aunt Wu, you still have time to talk? Didn’t Granny Chen call you? I’ll talk to her when I pass by your house.”

The woman who was darker and thinner than the other woman immediately looked distressed.

"Hehe, no need then, I'm going to do the laundry now."

If that old hag finds out she's slacking off, she'll cause trouble for her when she gets back.

"Aunt Zhou, your son still hasn't found a girlfriend. Is it because those matchmakers aren't working? I know quite a few nice girls, but I've decided against it."

"That girl is perfectly fine; it would be so hard for her to suffer in your family. Your son's reputation is much better than mine. Let me know when you find a daughter-in-law; I'll come to the celebration!"

“You, you…” Another woman pointed at Wang Mei with a slightly trembling hand. Her son was not good-looking and had been to jail for some things. After he got out, he was idle and had nothing to do. He also liked to drink, which made it impossible for anyone to want her son.

Even those who are very poor, or whose stepmothers treat their daughters badly, are unwilling to marry their daughters into such families. What family wants to be related to a relative who has been to prison?

Yun Jiao and Yun Xiaowu watched as Wang Mei proved to be incredibly powerful, constantly poking at the sore spots of those people.

They did want to poke at Wang Mei's sore spot, but the key was that they didn't!

In the past, people could say that she married a poor man.

But now, she has bought a motorcycle, built a house, her children are doing well in school, she has given birth to four sons, and her husband treats her well.

Thinking about it made me even angrier!

"You, you have no manners or upbringing! How dare you speak to your elders like that!"

Wang Mei laughed: "Oh, is that so? Then I'll tell your son and daughter to go."

"And you."

She stared at Liu Hong with a sinister look.

Liu Hong's heart skipped a beat. She felt that Wang Mei had a lot of grudges against her today, and she could hardly hide the look of wanting to beat her up in her eyes.

"You, you better not do anything reckless! I'm your sister-in-law, or your brother will never forgive you."

Wang Mei sneered: "Let him try to touch me. My father said that if he dares to lay a hand on me for your sake, he will sever all ties with him and pretend that he was never born to be an unfilial son."

"Sister-in-law? Who do you think you are? The only sister-in-law I, Wang Mei, acknowledge is Sister-in-law Lanhua. You really think you're something by using shameless means to marry my brother."

"I tolerated you before because I didn't want to bother with some shameless scoundrels, but now I'm not going to. If you dare to ruin my reputation again, I'll buy a megaphone and broadcast your story of how you ruined my brother's marriage and how you cheated on me everywhere. I'll play it on repeat throughout the village every day!"

"you dare!"

Liu Hong's eyes instantly turned red with anger. Although she was shameless, no one could stand having her actions broadcast over the loudspeaker in the village.

"Aren't you afraid your older brother will ruin his reputation?"

Wang Mei scoffed, "His reputation was already ruined when he abandoned Sister Lan Hua to marry you, he's the only one who still thinks highly of himself."

The thought of that bitch making their family raise someone else's child and cheating on their brother makes me angrier and angrier. In my anger, I even cursed my own brother without holding back.

Wang Mei's fighting spirit has skyrocketed, and she's become more thick-skinned and composed than when she was a young girl. Liu Hong's attempt to manipulate her using the old methods is futile; there's no way she can succeed.

Finally, she managed to anger Liu Hong to the point of turning red, but she dared not say or do anything, because she was really afraid that Wang Mei would take a loudspeaker and shout in the village.

As for the other two, they had already slunk away.

Like a victorious rooster, Wang Mei, carrying Yun Jiao, and leading her son and nephew, strode away triumphantly.

Liu Hong could only watch them leave with a venomous look in her eyes.

Yun Jiao: Write this down in my little notebook. She should be just as sharp-tongued in the future, so she can make people furious without even having to fight.

"My aunt is amazing."

Yun Jiao, the little seal, clapped, and her older brothers followed suit, praising her for being so impressive, especially Yun Xiaoqi.

"I want to be just as amazing when I grow up!"

Wang Mei was quite embarrassed.

"We'll talk about it when you're older."

She didn't think being sharp-tongued was a bad thing; being sharp-tongued meant she'd be less likely to be bullied.

Although they may be easily labeled as sharp-tongued and mean, those who are not good at talking are easily labeled as cowards or weaklings. Are those words really good?
There weren't many baskets at home, and Yun Jiao and Yun Xiao Jiu were too short to carry any.

When going uphill, Yun Jiao was still squatting in the basket on her back as her aunt carried her up.
