Old Mrs. Song is reborn; get out of here, you scumbag husband and illegitimate child!

The sister-in-law looked shocked.

After a long pause, she managed to stammer, "This...this is amazing!"

"We can't let Xianghe get divorced."

The sisters-in-law all nodded; none of them wanted Song Xianghe to stay at her parents' home for an extended period.

Song Xiangmei picked up a date from the table.

"Ever since Chunxia married Xiaochuan, my sons' families have had several fights. Guess how she stirred things up?"

Everyone craned their necks.

"She ran into her second son's mother-in-law who came to visit," Song Xiangmei said, holding up a finger to indicate her name. "She pointed directly at her nose and called her 'water monkey face.'"

"Ah?" Third Sister-in-law exclaimed in surprise.

"She told the second son's mother-in-law that this was what the second son had told the villagers. Then she turned around and said that the second son's wife looked like her mother, with pimples on her face like toad skin."

Song Xiangmei laughed out loud as she finished speaking.

It was as if the son she was fighting with wasn't her own.

"The second son's mother-in-law came in, grabbed a carrying pole, and chased after him all over the yard, hitting him with it."

Song Fei's wife couldn't hold back her laughter and collapsed onto the edge of the table.

The elder sister-in-law almost dropped her cane.

She quickly helped him up.

He kept shouting:

"Oh my god, did it hit anything?"

Song Xiangmei pointed at Chunxia, ​​"Ask her."

Chunxia's smugness was impossible to hide.

"Old Nie's mother-in-law has a face like a monkey's but thinks she's a great beauty."

Chunxia curled her lips upwards:

"They kept saying that her daughter was so beautiful back then that she could marry any rich man, but she was completely deceived by the old couple from the Nie family."

"My second sister-in-law's face is like a toad's; it's disgusting to look at."

Her mother still has the nerve to brag; I really don't know if a mirror is for reflecting others or for reflecting oneself.

Song Lao Si's wife laughed so hard she bent over and gasped for breath.

Third Sister-in-law laughed until tears streamed down her face, and she wiped them several times with her sleeve.

Song Laosan placed a plate of rice cakes and a plate of fried dried fish on the table.

"What are you laughing at? Why is it so lively?"

No one ignored him.

Chunxia happily reached for a piece of rice cake and stuffed it into her mouth, saying, "Thank you, Third Uncle. If your family ever has a fight, just call me, and I promise I'll help you win."

Song Laosan chuckled twice.

"The fourth brother's family's affairs are even more outrageous."

The women in the courtyard had just finished laughing.

Now they're perking up their ears again.

"I want to introduce a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to my fourth brother. He asked, puzzled, what kind of doctor he wanted."

"I told you that Fourth Sister-in-law was saying all over the village that you are like a thousand-year-old ginkgo tree with two ginkgo fruits hanging on it, plus a small stem with the leaves pulled off."

The courtyard was quiet for two seconds.

He then burst into laughter, unable to stand up straight.

Song Fei's wife had just picked up her teacup and taken a big gulp of water when she heard this sentence, and she spat it all out.

Water droplets splashed all over Song Laosi's wife's body and face.

"Cough cough cough."

Song Fei's wife choked until her face turned red.

He put down the teacup and hurriedly grabbed his sleeves to wipe the water off Song Lao Si's wife. "Auntie, I'm sorry."

Song Lao Si's wife waved her hands repeatedly, saying it was nothing, nothing.

She was laughing so hard she could hardly breathe while wiping the water off her face.

Song Laosan looked on with a face that he could hardly bear to look at.

He glanced at the kitchen, then silently turned and slipped back inside.

"I turned around and bumped into Nie Lao Si's wife, calling her 'Sister-in-law Si' repeatedly, and said I'd introduce her to an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor to help her get better. Sister-in-law Si asked me why I was introducing her to a doctor?"

"I told them that my fourth brother was telling everyone how she cooks."

Song Xianglan: ...

No wonder other women look reluctant to part with their daughters when they get married, while Zhang Qin feels as if a heavy burden has been lifted.

Chunxia spread her hands, feigning a wronged expression:

"I just casually relayed the message a few times, adding some words that would embarrass them in public."

When the couple got home, they smashed all the pots and pans to pieces.

That night, none of the neighbors slept. Fourth Sister-in-law chased Fourth Brother from inside the house to outside, and then back inside, making a scene all night long.

Song Xiangmei picked up another date from the table and popped it into her mouth.

"Now everyone in the village calls her a troublemaker."

"There's no family she can't break up."

Song Xianglan sat to the side, barely saying a word from beginning to end.

This will pop up with a sentence.

"A spear poking shit, whoever gets poked dies."

Laughter erupted in the courtyard.

Song Erge's voice drifted out from the kitchen: "What's all the laughter outside? Tell us too."

No one ignored him.

Chunxia chewed on dried fish.

"Let me tell you, the family that just moved in next door is the cousin of Nie Laosan's wife."

The laughter subsided.

Several women perked up their ears again.

"That mother-in-law is so vicious."

Chunxia frowned, crunching the dried fish in her mouth.

"The old woman started wiping away tears as soon as she saw her son and daughter-in-law exchanging a few words. She cried and wailed, saying that her son had forgotten his mother after marrying a wife."

The elder sister-in-law's smile slowly faded.

"He even pointed at his daughter-in-law's nose and cursed her." Chunxia's speech quickened. "He said she looked fair and clean, but you could tell she couldn't live without men. She had a serious face but was incredibly lewd."

Song Fei's wife's face immediately fell:

"Is this something a human would say?"

The third sister-in-law stopped laughing, her lips curling downwards. "This kind of mother-in-law is deliberately trying to make life unbearable for anyone."

They are all mothers-in-law.

They wouldn't do something like that.

Song Xiangmei rolled her eyes.

"Upon hearing this, Chunxia stepped directly into the woman's yard and asked, 'You're making yourself out to be some kind of virtuous and chaste woman. Were those seven or eight children conceived through forced marriage, or did they just spontaneously inflict by chance?'"

Song Fei's wife: "That's how you have to roast someone."

"That old hag dared to argue with me," Chunxia said angrily. "We argued for more than half an hour over the wall."

She yelled at me, calling me shameless and nosy. I called her a wretched old woman, a worthless wretch. The whole village came out to watch the spectacle, wondering where my new wife learned such foul language.

She raised her chin and stiffened her neck.

"She can't out-argue me."

These five words were spoken crisply and forcefully.

"She was so angry that she turned around and went back into the house to scold her daughter-in-law." Chunxia's voice suddenly lowered. "That soft-hearted daughter-in-law didn't dare to utter a sound and let her mother-in-law humiliate her."

She picked up a fried anchovy and twirled it between her fingers twice.

"What a terrible thing to do."

"If you can't stand on your own two feet, no one else can help you."

The courtyard was quiet for a moment.

Song Fei's wife: "Someone should teach this kind of mother-in-law a lesson. Chunxia, ​​you did the right thing."

Chunxia's lips curled up again.

The women were so engrossed in their conversation that they left sunflower seed shells scattered all over the floor and piled up a small bowl of date pits.

More than half of the rice cakes on the stone table had been eaten.

There was only a small amount of fried dried fish left at the bottom of the plate.

The sound of spatulas stirring in the kitchen filled the air, and the aroma of cooking oil permeated the entire yard.

Song Erge, wearing an apron, poked his head out.

"We're running out of oil. Can someone go to the side room and get a jug of rapeseed oil?"

Sister-in-law Song: "Can't you go get it yourself?"

"My hands are covered in flour."

Song Laosi stood up from behind the stove. "I'll go get it."

He lifted his leg and stepped out of the threshold.

"You've been chatting outside for ages, and you haven't even come in to help."

Song Lao Si's wife didn't even look up, just waved her hand at him:

"Go away, go away, go do your own thing. It's a rare opportunity for us women to get together and chat, don't get in the way."

Old Song muttered a couple of things.

He went to the side room to get the oil and then went back to the kitchen.

The elder sister-in-law tried to stand up by supporting herself on the armrest of the chair, but Song Xianglan reached out and pressed her shoulder down, pushing her back into the chair.

"Sister-in-law, sit down and rest for a while. The chicken is already stewing, so stir-fry a few more dishes. Let the men get busy."

The older sister-in-law struggled but couldn't move, so she had to sit back down.

She rarely showed a relaxed expression.

Chunxia popped the last dried fish into her mouth.

"My mother-in-law is a gentle person, not good with words and doesn't know how to talk back. When I see her being yelled at, I get anxious and I protect the people around me. I can bring up any old grudge, I'll even stand on the grave of a dead person and curse them for days."

Song Xiangmei was peeling peanuts with her head down.

Hearing this, he paused for a moment without looking up.

Chunxia: "My frail mother-in-law needs my protection."

"I have to make them pay for all the humiliation they suffered at home, one by one."

Her voice suddenly hardened.

"No one can bully our family anymore."
