11 Battle of the In-Laws

"Hurry up and leave. Don't embarrass yourself here. Even if your parents did favor boys over girls, did they ever let you two sisters do any heavy lifting? All you two girls did was help out with the housework. Which girl doesn't do that at home? I'm sure we all know the truth."

Which family didn't have a daughter? Shi Jiaojiao was simply an ingrate!

"That's right. Initially, your second brother didn't know how to do any chores. It was Sister-in-law Wan's family who taught him. I didn't see you appear a single time. But you're showing up now when it benefits you! You're downright shameless!"

"If I were you, I would be too embarrassed to get out of my house. When you were married, your dowry cost one tael! Even your sister doesn't cost as much as you, yet you're still not satisfied! Pfft!"

Usually, everyone she saw was like a punching bag. It was disgusting!

The more they talked, the angrier Shi Jiaojiao became.

"I'll fight it out with you!" She charged at Shi Jinhua.

The onlookers were stunned. Was this woman crazy?

But Shi Jiaojiao suddenly got stopped in her tracks. Something was wrapped around her neck so tightly that she almost couldn't breathe.

The bystanders were also rendered speechless by this sudden scene. Shi Jinhua's heart skipped a beat.

"Get out." As she spoke, she casually threw the other woman out the door.

Before Shi Jiaojiao could react, she had already flown out. When she came into contact with the ground, the pain brought her back to her senses.

"Was Shi Jiaojiao just thrown out?" It took a long time for someone to finally speak up.

"Something flew past us. I don't know if it was her."

It had been quite sudden. With a whoosh, that thing had just flown by!

This time, the onlookers were a little afraid when they saw the protagonist taking action. They all took a step back in unison.

"What are you doing?" Shi Jinhua glared at Qian Sishui angrily.

Although the argument had gotten heated, she was Shi Jinhua's second sister after all. Now that Shi Jiaojiao had been thrown out by her sister-in-law, how could Shi Jinhua not be angry?

Qian Sishui thought so too. She had thrown her sister-in-law out right under her brother's nose!

I guess I was too impulsive, Qian Sishui thought.

Just as she was about to explain herself, she was interrupted.

"Your hands have just gotten better. Why are you carrying heavy things?" Had she forgotten about everything else just because she had earned some money?

As he spoke, he picked up Qian Sishui's hand and checked it repeatedly before he finally felt relieved.

The onlookers couldn't help but gasp. So it turned out that he was only concerned for his wife.

Haha! All this darned man cares about is money, Qian Sishui thought.

Shi Jinhua heaved a sigh of relief. That was close. At least he had managed to keep his money!

Shi Jiaojiao was speechless.

"We'll keep two. Who wants the last one?" Shi Jinhua asked.

Someone near Shi Jinhua grabbed him and said, "I want it. Weigh it for me."

If gazes could kill, Shi Jiaojiao's menacing glare would kill Qian Sishui a hundred times over!

At home, Liu Qingchun was eagerly waiting for the rabbits, only to see Shi Jiaojiao return empty-handed in a sorry state.

"Where are the rabbits?" She narrowed her eyes at Shi Jiaojiao, ready to tear her apart at any moment.

"I didn't have enough money."

Shi Jiaojiao was full of rage. After saying this, she turned around and entered her room, slamming the door behind her.

Liu Qingchun remained in the courtyard, her hands on her hips as she scolded, "Useless sl*t! Other than seducing men, what else do you know how to do? You don't know how to do anything!" Thinking back, she had never liked this daughter-in-law.

It couldn't be helped that this daughter-in-law of hers was so shameless. At that time, she had gone right into the fields to seduce her second son—there were eye-witnesses who could testify to that!

After marrying into their family, she was lazy and gave birth to a good-for-nothing. But nothing could be worse than her good-for-nothing second son. As long as Shi Jiaojiao coaxed him, he could ignore everything else!

"Grandma, let's eat. I'm hungry, Grandma!" The four-year-old tugged on Liu Qingchun's hand and shook it.

"Eat, eat, eat! That's all you know how to do! When you grow up, you'll be just like your mother. You're a shameless sl*t!"

Shi Jiaojiao had intended on ignoring her mother-in-law, but the latter's words were really nasty. How could that woman say that about her daughter?

She shoved the door and said, "Mother, the kid is only four years old. How can you say that about her? Are you trying to ruin her reputation?"

Liu Qingchun laughed in disdain. "Reputation? So you care about your reputation! That's rich coming from a sl*t like you. With a mother like you, she can forget about having a good reputation in life! Pfft!"

"She's still a child and doesn't know anything. Mother, you're too much!" The younger woman's eyes were red with anger.

Liu Qingchun didn't like Shi Jiaojiao to begin with. Besides, she had failed to bring any rabbits back. This daughter-in-law of hers was truly useless. "I'm too much? You've been in the family for three and a half years, right? The child is four years old. No one can even say for sure that she's the Zhang family's child. Let's not talk about it. It's not like she eats much anyway. You're so flirtatious, so why haven't you given our family a son?" As she spoke, she glanced at Shi Jiaojiao's body.

"A son? What's wrong with not having a son? Didn't your mother give birth to you?"

The matter of being a woman had already been brought up at her younger brother's house earlier. Now, even her mother-in-law had something to say about it too! There was no holding her back.

"How dare you talk back to me? Who can you blame but yourself if you can't give birth to another kid?"

Li Yuanyuan covered her son's ears and pulled him into the room, not wanting him to listen to the scolding in the courtyard.

If only we could move out from here, she thought to herself.

Shi Jiaojiao was enraged. "You old fart! Have a good look in the mirror! Touch your heart. Do you really think you're not cheap? Do you not seduce men too, you sl*t?" She grabbed Liu Qingchun's hair and yanked it hard!

The commotion attracted the attention of the surrounding neighbors. One by one, their eyes lit up. This pair of in-laws was a rare sight!

The bystanders quickly chased the children away. If that failed, they simply dragged the children away from the scene.

"Why don't you take a look at yourself? You're so fat that a rat would probably die between the layers of your fat! Yet, you still have the cheek to show off. Your face is no better. You look just like a pig's face." Taking advantage of her youth, the younger woman beat Liu Qingchun down.

When Li Yuanyuan heard this, she was angry and helpless. She could live like this, but as she looked at her ignorant son in her arms, her eyes welled up with tears.

Those who were close to Old Madam Liu had already run to the village to call Liu Qingchun's husband, Zhang Dechang, back.

"Brother Dechang, hurry up and go back. Your house is about to turn upside down. If you don't go back…" He couldn't bring himself to say it.

"What's wrong with my family?" Was the old woman up to something?

"Aiya, don't ask anymore. Just head home first!"

Zhang Dechang was just a thin old man. When he heard this, he hurriedly walked home.

When the old woman who came to call for help saw Zhang Dechang walking away, she looked at Zhang Dechang's body and some thoughts appeared in her mind…

When Zhang Dechang returned to his door, he heard bouts of laughter filling the place.

All of a sudden, someone shouted, "Master Dechang is back!"

The onlookers automatically made way for him, and the laughter stopped. Some of the bolder ones looked at Zhang Dechang brazenly.

When the old man entered the courtyard, he saw his wife and daughter-in-law fighting. He was so angry that his hair was about to stand up.
