Chapter 59 The Evil Old Woman Wants to Steal the Nest
In Miao Meili's view, this is because Guan Hongying was nourished by love.
The thought of this made her feel terrible!
Lin Hai, that perfect guy, should have been hers!
However, just because she acted a little late, now it all went to Guan Hongying!
Thinking about this filled her with deep resentment!
Why should I?!
What right does Guan Hongying, that butcher, have?!
She doesn't even deserve it!
*
In the drafty mud-brick house in the Guan family courtyard, the old lady slowly woke up on the cold ground.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt a biting cold wind mixed with snowflakes rush into her neck!
This made her so cold that her whole body convulsed violently as if she were being electrocuted.
The swollen hand, already pinched by a mousetrap, had lost all feeling, leaving only a dull, throbbing pain.
"Jinbao...my Jinbao..."
Suddenly, the old lady thought of something, and then she quickly and laboriously propped up her mud-covered upper body!
However, before she could even react, a pig-like scream came from outside the courtyard gate.
Little Jinbao, clutching his swollen bottom, cried his eyes out and scrambled in from outside the gate.
His already dirty cotton trousers were now soaked in the crotch area and had frozen into a hard shell in the cold December wind.
"Grandma! Waaaaah... That bastard hit me! And the villagers are going to lock me up! Grandma, help me, waaaaah..."
Jinbao cried until his tears and snot were all mixed together, then he threw himself into the old lady's arms and wailed at the top of his lungs.
That appearance was even more exaggerated than a pig being slaughtered; it was truly pitiful!
Seeing this, Lin Chuan and Guan Siya behind them couldn't help but twitch their lips.
"Little brat, anyone who didn't know better would really think we were abusing him!" Guan Siya said irritably.
Seeing her beloved grandson in such a miserable state, the old lady was so angry that she almost fainted again.
At that moment, it felt as if a wad of rubbish had been stuffed into her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.
The old woman's cloudy, triangular eyes were filled with resentment, but also with some fear!
She remembers everything that happened before she fell into a coma!
She remembered the sound coming from the loudspeaker very clearly...
it's over...
Done!
She could no longer stay in Linhe Brigade.
The curses from the entire village blaring over the loudspeaker felt like knives scraping her old face.
Stealing remittance slips from military dependents is a serious crime that can lead to public criticism and being paraded through the streets with a worn-out shoe hanging out of one's face!
The old woman clenched her teeth, her heart filled with such hatred that she wanted to devour Lin Chuan alive.
How come she never noticed before that this little brat named Lin Chuan had so many cunning ideas?!
Despite her resentment, what welled up in her heart at this moment was a huge panic of her plans falling through.
In fact, neither the villagers nor Guan Hongying knew that her trip to Linhe Brigade to "seek refuge" with her second daughter with her grandson Jinbao was not out of desperation or a desire to escape famine!
Instead, it was a long-planned, well-organized scheme to "usurp the nest"!
Let's rewind to half a month ago, to Wangjiazhai.
The old lady's beloved son, Guan Yaozu, was sitting with his legs crossed on the only relatively intact heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed) in the house.
He was fat and strong, with a face full of fat, and you couldn't tell at all that he had starved during the famine.
He looks exactly like his beloved son, Jinbao.
Meanwhile, his wife, Ma Cuihua, secretly added a wild egg she had somehow found to her to the last half bowl of cornmeal porridge in the house, and carefully presented it to Guan Yaozu.
"Honey, eat up, eat it while it's hot. In this awful weather, if you don't eat something good to nourish yourself, how will your body withstand it?"
Ma Cuihua has an inverted triangle face with high cheekbones, and her thin lips move constantly when she speaks!
His appearance was remarkably similar to that of Old Lady Guan.
Guan Yaozu slurped down the egg mixture in a few mouthfuls, showing no intention of leaving any for his family.
After finishing his meal, he wiped his mouth and complained impatiently.
"Damn it, I can't live like this anymore! The little food rations we had in the production brigade are long gone, and now we're eating this throat-irritating stuff every day. My intestines are about to get knotted up!"
The old lady sat to one side, sewing a tattered cotton-padded jacket for Jinbao while looking at her son with heartache.
"Oh, my son! You are the only son of our Guan family. If you starve, how can I face your father after I die!"
"Mother, what's the use of just talking? Didn't we drain our eldest sister dry a few years ago? Now it's second sister's turn!"
Guan Yaozu's triangular eyes darted around, and his greedy expression was exactly the same as the old lady's.
When the eldest sister, Guan Hongmei, was mentioned, the old lady and Ma Cuihua felt no guilt whatsoever, but rather took it for granted.
Back then, Guan Hongmei, the eldest sister of the Guan family, was such a beautiful and capable girl.
Although Guan Hongmei and Guan Hongying were thrown out of their home when they were young.
But seeing how beautiful and charming the girl had become, how could Old Mrs. Guan let her go so easily?!
Clearly, Guan Hongmei is even more soft-hearted than Guan Hongying!
She was forced by the old lady to commit suicide, and in the end, she hastily married herself off, and then used the high dowry to help Guan Yaozu get a wife.
Even after Guan Hongmei got married, the old lady still didn't have a moment of peace.
She and Guan Yaozu went to beg for money every few days, either borrowing grain or taking money!
If she disobeyed in the slightest, the old lady would go to her eldest daughter's husband's house and make a scene, threatening to hang herself, and scolding her eldest daughter as an unfilial ingrate.
There was nothing they could do; they didn't dare to provoke Guan Hongying at that time, so they could only go to Guan Hongmei.
At that time, Guan Hongying wanted to gain a foothold in Linhe Brigade and also to ensure that the woman she had adopted could have enough to eat!
He's always carrying a butcher's knife, either slaughtering pigs or hunting in the mountains with a large machete!
Every day they go home covered in blood, which terrifies anyone who sees it, and who would dare to mess with them?
Therefore, they can only bully those with a soft temper.
In the end, poor Guan Hongmei suffered endless scorn in her husband's family!
After her eldest daughter died, the old lady didn't even shed a tear!
In the end, he only cursed, "You unlucky, short-lived wretch! Your grandfather will have fewer snacks to enjoy in the future!"
Now, Wangjiagou is truly starving, and the family's greedy eyes naturally fell on their second daughter, Guan Hongying.
"Mother, I've inquired!" Ma Cuihua stepped forward, her eyes shining.
"The Guan family is rich now. Not only have they built a big brick house, but they also eat meat every day. And those two brats of hers aren't going to join the army?!"
"If you join the army, you get a monthly allowance that they send home! That's a huge, continuous source of income!"
"But Guan Hongying's temper is just like her father's, that hunter! She's stubborn and headstrong. She still holds a grudge about what happened back then. Will she let us in?" The old lady hesitated.
"She dares not to?!" Guan Yaozu slapped his thigh and roared indignantly.
"My eldest sister is dead. As the second eldest sister, she was like a mother to me. Now she's the only daughter left in the family who can still breathe! If she doesn't raise me, her own brother, who will?!"
