Chapter 196 The Best Sister-in-law 4
Cheng Yue was a little flustered. Her plan was discovered. She wiped the syrup from the corner of her mouth in annoyance. Why is this system so unreliable? There is actually brown sugar in the brown sugar syrup. Isn't this harming her?
"This girl usually looks honest, how could she do such a thing?"
"That's right, I thought he really vomited blood, but it turned out that he was just acting it out."
"If she acts like this, the Cheng family's reputation will be ruined. What is she trying to achieve?"
……
Cheng Yue looked at the villagers around her who had changed their tone and felt her face burning. She had really miscalculated today.
"Snapped!"
Cheng Yue tilted his head and received a slap on the left cheek, so that the two sides were symmetrical now.
Cheng Yue was stunned, and when she looked up, she met Cheng Geng's angry gaze.
After beating his daughter, Cheng Geng felt a little regretful. Without looking at his daughter, he turned around and knelt down in front of Qian Xiu Lian.
"Mother, I am unfilial and have not taught Sanniu well. Please be magnanimous and forgive her this time."
Nan Xi raised her eyebrows. This was a pretty quick reaction. Who could still say that his second brother was stupid? He was obviously the smartest person in the second house.
Wu Sumei also came back to her senses. She pulled Cheng Yue and looked her up and down, fearing that her daughter was just experiencing a last burst of energy.
Cheng Wencai and Cheng Wude were already confused. The development of this matter was too unexpected. Let them stay confused for a while.
Zhou Lanxin curled her lips. She said, that little devil Sanniu was very smart, how could she possibly vomit blood and die like this?
There were footsteps at the door again. The eldest and second girls came back, and they brought back a full bag of wild grapes.
"What is this...?"
They didn't dare to speak anymore and quickly walked to stand beside Zhou Lanxin. Then all the Cheng family members were gone.
As for the third son of the Cheng family, Cheng Tian, and his family, they now live in the city. Because of his wife Chen Biyu, Cheng Tian works in the shop of his father-in-law in the city.
Cheng Yue was trying to calm her family's anger at the moment, and Nan Xi asked in confusion, "Mom, didn't Sanniu steal the brown sugar you bought for me?"
Wu Sumei's heart skipped a beat. She immediately looked at her daughter and asked silently.
Cheng Yue's heart skipped a beat. She didn't steal it! But she couldn't explain where the red sugar syrup came from, so she had to admit it.
Qian Xiulian jumped up again, "You bastard, you actually dared to steal my brown sugar, I'll beat you to death..."
This time Wu Sumei didn't dare to stop him. She and Cheng Yue could only support each other and get beaten.
The stick hit Cheng Yue's back, and her hair stood up immediately. This feeling made her so angry that she could no longer bear it.
Cheng Yue grabbed the stick and yelled, "Grandma, it's fine if you're partial to my aunt, but why do you treat our second wife like this? You either beat her or scold her. I've never gotten a single egg from the chickens I raise. You're too partial."
Qian Xiu Lian was held back. She tried to pull it out several times but failed. She became furious after hearing these words.
"What's wrong with me being partial? She's my daughter. If you want to eat eggs, go find your mother. Thirty percent of your father's work as a handyman goes to your mother. You can't figure it out yourself, and you come to blame me. I think you are an ungrateful person."
Cheng Yue said angrily: "If you favor my aunt, don't expect us to take care of you in your old age."
Cheng Geng and Wu Sumei were immediately frightened out of their wits. How could their daughter say such disrespectful words? She would be stabbed in the back.
Wu Sumei quickly covered her daughter's mouth and said, "Mom, calm down. Sanniu is so angry that she is confused. Don't take her words to heart."
Cheng Geng just knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged.
Qian Xiu Lian's heart suddenly sank. This was her good son, but the daughter she raised actually said she would not support her in her old age.
She snorted coldly, "I have sons and daughters, I don't want to rely on you, my granddaughter who is going to marry out, to support me in my old age."
Qian Xiulian glared at Cheng Geng, then looked at Cheng Zhong, "Tell me, do you all think the same way? Do you all want to separate and live separately?"
Cheng Zhong also knelt down quickly, "Mom, you can't take Sanniu's words seriously. How could I think that? As long as my parents are still together, I have no intention of splitting up the family."
Cheng Geng also kept defending himself, "Mom, I will definitely take care of you in your old age. What Sanniu said is nonsense."
Cheng Yue was anxious. Since things had come to this, if the division failed, she didn't know when she would die in the future. She didn't want to continue living in the Cheng family.
"Dad, Mom, look at my face. This is what my aunt did to me. Even if I tricked you with the brown sugar syrup, I was forced into it. If I don't find a solution, our family will not be able to survive."
What Cheng Yue said was true, and it was indeed a bit tragic considering her horrible face, but Nan Xi couldn't take the blame.
"Just now you were the one who wrongly accused me of hitting you on the left cheek, so I hit you on the right cheek to prove that you were lying. Besides, it wasn't me who hit you on the left cheek, it was your father who hit you on the left cheek."
The villagers then suddenly realized that this was the cause of the incident.
"This girl is so dishonest. She lied and stole things. She even tried to make excuses when she was wrong. I was really fooled by her."
"Yes, I didn't notice it before."
"Don't let Xiaoya play with her anymore, or she will lead my daughter astray."
……
Cheng Yue was extremely angry when she heard what everyone said. It was all Cheng Nan's fault. If only he hadn't discovered the brown sugar syrup.
"Aunt, you are the troublemaker. It's because of you that grandma is partial to you and everyone is dissatisfied with you."
Cheng Yue said this and nodded to the big girl and the second girl.
The eldest girl immediately stood up and said, "Third girl, Second girl and I both like our little aunt, that's why we are not dissatisfied with her. We also voluntarily picked these wild fruits for our little aunt to eat."
As she said this, she showed the wild grapes to Nan Xi.
"Aunt, these wild grapes are so sweet. I'll wash them for you to eat later."
Cheng Yue was so angry, "You...you are really hopeless."
Cheng Wencai grabbed Cheng Yue and said, "Sanniu, please stop talking and beg grandma not to be angry."
Cheng Wude is only eight years old this year, but he knows that he cannot anger his grandmother, so he pulls his sister and makes her kneel down.
Cheng Yue felt helpless when she saw the helpless family. However, she had no fighting power in this ancient time and had no way to be independent. She had to rely on her parents.
She had no choice but to kneel down reluctantly.
Qian Xiulian saw through it, and she snorted coldly, "Since you, the second branch, want to leave, this family can be divided. Second brother, give me a definite answer, do you want to divide the family?"
Cheng Geng's mouth moved twice. Thinking of his daughter's fainting last night and his wife's suggestion, he became a little hesitant again.
Qian Xiu Lian snorted and looked at her eldest son and daughter-in-law. Cheng Zhong had no objection, but Zhou Lanxin pulled his sleeve and shook it.
Qian Xiu Lian felt a chill in her heart. Although a big tree has many branches, it was really heartbreaking that her sons wanted to divide the family property before her younger sister got married.
Nan Xi held Qian Xiulian's arm and said softly, "Mom, since my elder brother and second brother both want to separate, let's do it. I will take care of you and dad in your old age."
Qian Xiu Lian felt a little relieved. Her sons were all stupid and she was the caring little boy. However, even if they had to split up, she couldn't let her little boy down.
She looked at Cheng Shouyi. Qian Xiulian was the head of the Cheng family and she had the final say on all matters, but Cheng Shouyi would definitely have to make the decision on dividing the family.
"In that case, the second brother will go and call your third brother back, and we will divide the property."
