Wielding a butcher's knife, a seven-year-old wicked girl supports her family and abuses her wic
Chapter 54 Chen Yue'e's Conspiracy
Chen Yue'e looked around and, after confirming with Yang Chengren that no one was around, the two of them sneaked off toward the Black Stone of Zhenhe.
Looking at the intact surface of the black stone, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and purse her lips:
"As expected, you were right."
"The claim that he shattered the Black Stone that suppressed the river with a single punch is all nonsense that Zong'er made up out of fear."
"That good-for-nothing is only seven years old, how could he possibly have such abilities?"
As she spoke, Chen Yue'e rubbed her aching face with disdain.
"According to the plan, we'll dig two holes and run away. Tomorrow we'll go to town and invite a fortune teller over."
She immediately waved her hand instinctively, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and start chiseling!"
Just as Chen Yue'e frowned and was about to turn around, Yang Chengren's incredulous voice came from the side:
"Mother...wife, come here quickly!"
"What's wrong now?"
Chen Yue'e glared at her unhappily, "If this delays things and someone sees us, I'll never forgive you!"
After saying that, she walked to the other side of the black stone in Zhenhe, which was also where Yang Chengren was.
"Look!" Yang Chengren gripped the axe tightly with his left hand, and pointed to the stone wall in front of him with his right hand, his fingers trembling slightly.
"These pits shouldn't have been here before, right?"
He reached out and touched the fresh marks on it. Even though he already had the answer in his heart, he still couldn't believe it.
"This..." Chen Yue'e's pupils suddenly contracted, and she gasped.
"Could it be that Zong'er wasn't lying, and this commotion really was caused by Yang Xiaoman?!"
"How did she manage to do that...?"
She had only spoken halfway when she instinctively craned her neck to look closer.
Upon seeing the clearly visible fist imprint, their gazes immediately fixed on it.
"Why does it look like it was thrown by a punch?!"
Yang Chengren's lips twitched violently. "Wife, who could blast the River-Suppressing Black Stone into this state with a single punch?"
"That's really strange. No matter how strong Xiaoman is, she couldn't possibly be this strong, could she?"
Hearing her husband's murmurs, Chen Yue'e shuddered. "I'll just say she's a demon!"
"If we leave her in Yangjia Village, we'll probably never have peace in our lives."
"We must seize this opportunity to drive that mother and daughter out of Yangjia Village!"
After saying that, she gritted her teeth, turned around, and left.
"My lady, shall we head back now?"
Watching his mother's resolute departure, Yang Chengren's mind went completely blank.
So he was sneaking around with an axe the whole way, afraid of being seen, only to make a wasted trip?
"You're not going back? Do you expect to take a bath in this river before you go back?!"
Upon hearing her husband's words, Chen Yue'e was both anxious and angry, and said with a sense of disappointment and frustration.
"We came here to smear that wretched girl. Now that she has done something so outrageous, we can just wait until tomorrow to go to town and hire a tutor."
"If the plan succeeds, once that damned mother and daughter are driven out of Yangjia Village, we can rightfully take over the third son's courtyard. No matter how well he hides his things, we can't stop him from digging three feet into the ground!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Chengren suddenly realized what was happening and quickly hid the axe in his pocket.
"My wife sees things very clearly!"
After saying that, he didn't forget to give a thumbs up.
Chen Yue'e glanced at him disdainfully, then curled her lip and said:
"I don't know what good fortune you accumulated in your past life to be with me in this life. Just wait and enjoy the good life."
"Once we get our hands on Old Sanzang's things, we'll hand them over to Lord Shen in exchange for that hundred taels of silver. Then who will still live in this wretched place? Our whole family can move to Shahe County and enjoy a life of leisure!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Chengren grinned broadly, scratched his head sheepishly, and seemed to already imagine that wonderful scene.
"By the way, those two old bastards actually dared to side with Third Brother today. From now on, once we're in town, let them continue to laze around in Yangjia Village, eating and waiting to die!"
"Don't you dare soften your heart then, you hear me?!"
Seeing that his mother was clearly genuinely angry, Yang Chengren's face hardened, and he nodded without hesitation:
"Wife, I'm not very bright, so whatever you say goes in this household!"
"That's more like it. Tomorrow you'll come with me to Sima Town and bring some silver to hire a fortune teller."
Li Xiuyun nodded slightly, then turned and left after speaking.
Yang Chengren followed closely behind.
……
Yang Family Courtyard.
Yang Xiaoman shook her slightly sore hands, and as soon as she sat up from the wooden stool, her little face immediately contorted into a grimace.
"Mom, weaving bamboo baskets is really tiring. I only helped for a little while, and my legs are numb from sitting."
Hearing this, Li Xiuyun shook her head helplessly and said softly:
"Silly child, what job in this world is easy to make money?"
"Your mother said you have errands to run tomorrow, so you don't need to help me with chores."
At this point, as if remembering something, she suddenly said:
"By the way, is that same butcher Chen who introduced you to this business tomorrow?"
Yang Xiaoman nodded gently, "Dad has finished his work. If we want to take on any more work, we can only rely on him."
She couldn't help but feel a little fortunate; if she hadn't impulsively made a bet with Chen Man at the Qi family that day...
Otherwise, there wouldn't have been the later trip to the Han family.
It would be much more difficult to raise three taels of silver within a month.
"Butcher Chen also has a family to support. Even though you made a bet with him, you can't keep taking advantage of him like this."
Li Xiuyun sighed, "For now, we should be like your father and have a stable customer base."
"In this way, even if we stay in Yangjia Village, the head of the household will personally send people to look for us."
Hearing this, Yang Xiaoman nodded thoughtfully. Even if her mother hadn't mentioned it, she hadn't intended to keep taking advantage of Chen Man.
But now, redeeming her sister is the priority, so she'll take on any job that comes her way.
"Mother, how can we secure a stable customer base?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Li Xiuyun was also taken aback.
He then looked at his daughter's innocent little face, shook his head with a wry smile, and said:
"At least until you make a name for yourself, like your father, and have a good reputation in the surrounding area..."
"Forget it, you're still young. Even though you have the butcher's license, we'll have to wait until later."
As she spoke, she slowly put down the bamboo basket that she had woven most of.
"In a few days, after we redeem Aning from the Qi family, even if we rely on Mother alone, our whole family won't go hungry."
"The family division didn't involve dividing the property. We can still cultivate the small plot of land that your father cultivated. Your uncle and his wife can't get their hands on it."
Hearing her mother's comforting words, Yang Xiaoman subconsciously looked at her own hands.
To make a name for oneself?
Perhaps this innate superhuman strength can lend her a helping hand!
