Lin i grabbed Tang Hehua’s lock of hair with one hand, pulling onto it with the strength she had gained from doing manual labor since childhood. With her other hand, she slapped Tang Hehua and cursed, “You are such a wicked ungrateful person. How have we wronged you?”
“All the good stuff that we couldn’t bear to use or food that we felt bad for eating without sharing were all sent back here. And who’s the one who enjoyed them the most? You eat and take without uttering a single ‘thank you’.”
“So you turn against others and beco a bad person once you don’t get what you want? Who are you trying to bla? If you want to bla soone, you should go to your old Tang family and talk to your parents! Let’s see what they’ll say to you!”
Although Tang Hehua liked to pick fights, she was not very good at fighting itself. After all, she was spoiled, so how could she be a match for Lin i? Hence, the brawl was over after just a mont.
Laixi and Laifu, the two sons of Eldest Sister-in-law Lin’s family, were stunned. The two boys were both kind and quiet by nature as they rarely ever quarrelled with others. Therefore, they didn’t even think about trying to stop the fight.
The children of the two oldest Lin sisters (Lin Lan’s 1st and 2nd sister) forgot to inform the adults. On the other hand, Lin Lan’s kids didn’t help because they were thinking of their elders’ sakes and not over-dramatise the situation, let alone join in on the fight.
Only Tang Hehua’s nieces and nephews were crying, rushing ho to complain.
So neighbors had already gathered around to ask what was going on. After all, how did a fight break out before even entering the house?
Soon, Old Lady Lin led all her daughters and wives out the house. She was worried that the other villagers would laugh at them, so she quickly asked the other won to take Tang Hehua and Lin i ho.
When Second Brother Lin, who was in the east room, heard his wife complain about being beaten by Lin i, he was so anxious that he rushed downstairs.
Han Qingsong, who had been silent in the room, spoke up at this ti, “The won are the ones fighting, so what are you heading there for?”
Zheng Yaozu imdiately agreed, “Fourth Brother-in-law is right, we n should not interfere in won’s fights. Or do you want us to fight too? A gentleman talks and does not fight, so let’s not stir trouble with the won.”
Second Brother Lin said angrily, “Brother-in-law, your wife is beating up my wife, so of course you are not going to argue.”
Zheng Yaozu, “No, Second Brother, you are wrong. My wife is also your elder sister. Are you heading out to hit her perhaps? She has always doted on you the most.”
Second Brother Lin was stunned for a while, and uttered out of spite and embarrassnt, “You should also be doting on my sister. And yet, here you are relying on her for support.”
Zheng Yaozu was not angry at the statent either since it was a fact that he relied on his wife. He knew very well that he married his wife for this reason, but it wasn’t exactly kept a secret either.
He smiled and said, “Of course, your Third Sister is our family’s treasure and everyone knows the benefits of being in a family with soone like her. But I must say that you are not kind, my brother-in-law. Aren’t you also living under the support of your elderly parents and your Eldest Brother? Yet, you speak as if you are very capable.”
