Before being reborn and getting married, the pampered young lady emptied her family's assets to

Chapter 81 People from my hometown are causing trouble.
"Liang Yi! You unfilial son! Get out here right now!"

Third Uncle leaned on his cane, his voice booming and full of energy, as if he were about to interrogate someone.

However, there was no response after they shouted that.

Just as the other person was about to shout again, the door opened, and An Min came out.

She was dressed in a clean and neat blue cotton jacket, her expression calm and composed, clearly having been prepared beforehand.

"Dear uncles and elders, you must be tired from your journey. Liang Yi went to the farm headquarters on some errands and will be back soon. If you have something to say, please come in, have some water, and sit down to talk."

An Min stepped aside, her tone neither humble nor arrogant.

Third Uncle snorted coldly: "Drink water? What water? We're not here to drink water. You must be Liang Yi's wife, right?"

"Yes."

An Min responded, and the third uncle immediately said, "I am Liang Yi's third uncle. Don't play dumb. Xiao Juan told us everything. Liang Yi has forgotten his roots now that he's successful. He doesn't even recognize the sister of the woman he married through proper channels, the one who protected the Liang family's reputation!"

"And they even tolerate you bullying her? Is there no law anymore? Is there no family tradition left?"

Su Xiaojuan hid behind and immediately began to wail, "Uncle, you must stand up for me! My sister has such a hard life... They're just taking advantage of me being all alone and helpless..."

An Min ignored Su Xiaojuan's crying scene and looked directly at the elders.

“The law? Third Uncle, that’s not the right way to put it. Society is very different now than it used to be.”

As for your mention of family rules, I admit you're right. But we need to clarify the facts first.

She turned and went back into the house, taking out a thick brown paper bag.

"My esteemed uncles and elders have come from afar, and we cannot rely on just one side of the story. I have a few points to make, and I would like to ask you to listen to what is really going on."

Anmin wanted everyone to sit down and have a calm discussion.

Since they don't want to talk properly, there's no need for that.

"You're saying it's a proper marriage, but I don't think that's right."

She pulled out several photocopies of documents.

"These are the regulations for marriage registration. Liang Yi never registered for marriage with any woman named Su Xiaomei when he was away from home, and the military never received any marriage application reports."

Without a state-recognized marriage certificate and a marriage report approved by the military, how can there be a proper marriage? Where does the word "marry" come from? If you all arranged this marriage, then your wives should be considered your wives.

Her sharp gaze swept over her uncles, and the old men's expressions changed slightly.

Before her uncles could say she was being ridiculous, Anmin produced new evidence.

"As for what you said, Su Xiaomei is guarding the gate for the Liang family."

Anmin then took out several letters sent from her hometown.

"This is the letter from our hometown that informed Liang Yi that Su Xiaomei had entered the family. The letter clearly states that it was you elders who, without Liang Yi's knowledge and with his explicit refusal in a letter, took it upon yourselves to let Su Xiaomei move into the Liang family's old house in order to get a share of the good land under Liang Yi's name, and to take the place of his wife. This is called cuckoo taking over the nest, not chastity."

"What happened to Su Xiaomei after that? She probably ran off with someone. She really did a good job guarding the gate!"

Liang Yi was in the army at the time and didn't even know what his wife looked like. He was inexplicably cuckolded!

Who can he turn to for comfort?

An Min's voice was cold, and she was filled with resentment.

After Su Xiaomei did such a thing, now her younger sister, Su Xiaojuan, is using the same signboard that those people forced on Liang Yi back then, and she's come to Baiyanggou and won't leave.

Spreading rumors and causing trouble, damaging the relationship between husband and wife. These uncles wouldn't listen to Liang Yi's explanation, but instead sided with an outsider. It's best to cut ties with such relatives completely.

An Min's voice suddenly rose, carrying a stern aura that left the old men speechless for a moment.

"As for the final point, you say Liang Yi has forgotten his roots?"

Anmin finally took out a stack of remittance slips and spread them out on the table with a clatter.

"Over the years, he has lived frugally, sending money back to his hometown every month to subsidize the elderly and children in the clan who are in need. He has never forgotten that he is a descendant of the Liang family! But what about you? For a greedy and lying Su Xiaojuan, you have traveled thousands of miles to confront him, wanting to ruin his future and destroy his family! Is this how you elders should behave?"

Faced with the evidence, the old men blushed crimson.

The surrounding villagers also pointed and whispered among themselves.

Seeing the situation take a sharp turn for the worse, Su Xiaojuan panicked and screamed, "She's talking nonsense! She's slandering us! Those letters are all fake! The remittance slips are fake too! Uncle, don't believe her! She just wants to seize Liang Yi's money and doesn't recognize us, the Liang family!"

"fake?"

Liang Yi's cold voice rang out. He had returned at some point and was standing at the door, looking coldly at Su Xiaojuan and her uncles.

"Should I call the post office right now to check the receipt? Should I go to the police station to report you, Su Xiaojuan, for extortion and disrupting a military marriage? Every word Anmin said is true."

"The things you did back then for the sake of the land made me lose face in the army. Now, Su Xiaojuan wants to do the same thing again? No way!"

He walked over to Anmin, took her hand, and addressed the several pale-faced elders.

“Uncle, Uncle. I will not hold the past against you for the sake of our shared kinship. But from now on, An Min will be the only mistress of my Liang Yi household.”

Su Xiaojuan, get out of Baiyanggou right now! If you dare to cause trouble again, or if any of you listen to her instigation and come looking for trouble, don't blame me for turning my back on you and taking legal action!

Those who should be arrested will be arrested, and those who should be prosecuted will be prosecuted! I, Liang Yi, mean what I say!

The third uncle's cane fell to the ground. Faced with overwhelming evidence, his last shred of confidence in relying on his age vanished.

He waved his hand dejectedly and yelled at Su Xiaojuan, "Haven't you embarrassed us enough? Get out! Get back with us right now! You've completely disgraced the Liang family!"

Su Xiaojuan was completely dumbfounded, collapsed to the ground, and her cries turned into desperate howls.

She knew that her last resort had also collapsed.

An Min watched as Su Xiaojuan was dragged away by the Liang family members, and the old men who slunk away, and let out a soft breath.

She grasped Liang Yi's hand in return and whispered, "This time, it should really be peaceful."

Liang Yi looked at her, his eyes filled with lingering fear and relief, as well as an overwhelming love: "Minmin, thanks to you."

An Min smiled slightly, her gaze clear and firm: "Let's go home. We have to keep moving forward."

The onlookers applauded and cheered at the sight.

An Min smiled and was about to turn around when she suddenly felt everything go black and her body went limp.

I'm so tired, it feels like all my energy has been drained away.

"Minmin? Minmin!"

The last thing she heard was Liang Yi's shout. She tried to reach out, but she had no strength left in her body.

"Has your partner's period not come this month yet? How long is it late?"

　Hehe, hehe, hehe
