After the commotion settled down, Madam Zhou prepared the evening meal.
Seeing Wufu about to take a tray filled with food to the woodshed, she couldn’t help but call out to her, “Wufu, with the sky already dark, let the person in the woodshed stay another night.”
Wufu was taken aback.
Wasn’t she afraid?
People said fear was more frightening than danger.
“It’s too dark outside.
If you take him up the mountain, I won’t be at ease!” Madam Zhou said, pursing her lips.
She was more concerned about Wufu being in the mountains with that man late at night than a man staying in the house.
Who knew what could happen?
Wufu nodded her head in agreement.
Upon reaching the woodshed and seeing Ah Jiu half lying, half sitting on the straw, she walked over, placed the tray down, and said, “Have your meal.
Stay here tonight, and you can go up the mountain first thing in the morning!”
Ah Jiu looked at her in surprise and asked, “Is everything all right?”
Wufu glanced back at him, “It’s nothing, just eat!” With that, she turned and walked away without another word.
Ah Jiu didn’t say anything more but kept watching her back until it disappeared.
What kind of woman was she?
The whole drama that had just unfolded, he had witnessed from the small window in the woodshed.
The girl’s talent for intimidating people was admittedly strong, and as for her mother…
Ah Jiu shook his head, picked up the bowl from the tray, and began to eat slowly.
What was another family’s domestic affair to him?
Meanwhile, at the Zhou family, the scene was very tumultuous.
Madam Lu was crying and accusing the mother and daughter Wufu of their ‘wicked actions’.
“…
Grandma, husband, our mother and daughter were almost killed by her!” Madam Lu cried out, “Kick them out, or our whole family will be murdered.
Wufu has lost her mind.”
She was terrified; when that tile flew towards her, she thought she was dead.
It had barely whisked past her ear!
If it had veered even slightly…
Madam Lu touched her own neck and shuddered, her body going limp.
“That Wufu, who knows what witchcraft she learned, so terrifying!” Madam Lu said, pale-faced, “Grandma, could it be that she’s possessed by the Mountain Demon?”
Old Lady Zhou’s face looked very grim as she replied coldly, “I’ve told you before, stop provoking them.
Why don’t you listen?”
It was enough to make her furious.
In just a couple of days, the Liang Family was to visit for a meeting.
Was her eldest daughter-in-law insistent on disturbing the peace, craving more drama?
Madam Lu was startled, glancing quickly at her mother-in-law before hurriedly pulling Zhou Xiuer to her side, “Grandma, it was all started by that Wufu.
Our Xiuer was just walking along the road and wound up with a twisted finger.
Just look; she’s trying to break Xiuer’s fingers.
She has such a vicious heart.” As she spoke, she pinched Zhou Xiuer’s waist lightly.
Zhou Xiuer immediately acted along, kneeling and moving forward while crying, “Grandma, you must stand up for me.
Wufu is too overbearing.”
“This is outrageous.” Zhou Xuennian rose to his feet, his face dark with anger, “Mom, I’ll go have a look.”
Madam Lu’s heart leapt with joy, “Exactly, the eldest brother is like a father.
Husband, you must teach them a lesson; this is unacceptable.”
Zhou Xuennian nodded and had just taken two steps when Old Lady Zhou stopped him.
“You’re not going anywhere.
Is it not peaceful enough for you now?
Do you really crave an uneasy life that much?”
“But, Mom…” Zhou Xuennian frowned, slightly displeased.
His father had died, and as the eldest son, he was like the father of the family.
What was wrong with reprimanding them?
“Are you not listening to me anymore?” Old Lady Zhou said sternly, “I have my own judgment on this matter.
Nobody is allowed to go.”
Seeing that Madam Lu was about to speak again, she added, “In a couple of days, the Liang Family will come for a visit.
Anyone who disrupts the peace, giving the Liang Family something to laugh about, will have to answer to me!”
