47: Chapter 47: Concerned About Two Ends (Revised) 47: Chapter 47: Concerned About Two Ends (Revised) Wang Yongzhu briefly and concisely explained what had happened. The Wang Family was in utter silence, struck by a bolt from the blue! Old Granny Zhang jumped up at once, “Zhuzhu, are you serious? Did you really hear it?” Wang Yongzhu nodded, “Fourth Brother asked Li Jinzhi, and Li Jinzhi admitted it right in front of both of us.” “What a bastard the Li Family is! That little slut Li Jinzhi! I wondered why they were so dismissive when they went to set the wedding date today, pulling long faces. That little bitch from the Li Family, looking all high and mighty, turns out she’s been fooling around with some bastard and even got pregnant with a bastard child. Are they trying to make our Laosi a greenhorned fool?” Wang Laozhu and Wang Yongfu beside her also changed their expressions; this was not just a slap on Wang Yongping’s face, but a slap on the face of the entire Wang Family! The Li Family, are they seeking a deadly feud? “Mom, what should we do now? Should we go find Fourth Brother and bring him back?” Wang Yongzhu felt that the focus wasn’t here; the priority was to find Wang Yongping first. Old Granny Zhang patted Wang Yongzhu’s hand, “Oh Zhuzhu, my child, we owe you big time today. If it wasn’t for you overhearing those words, our family would have suffered a huge loss! Is this rabbit caught by your Fourth Brother?” Wang Yongzhu felt like kneeling; what a time to worry about rabbits, uh, but then again, didn’t she also run out a few steps before going back to grab the rabbit? After all, it was meat, and they couldn’t let the Li Family benefit from it! So she nodded, “This rabbit was caught by Fourth Brother, and since the Li Family didn’t care for it, there was no way I would let them have it for cheap; I simply took it with me!” Her words garnered unanimous approval and praise from the Wang Family; after all, rabbits are meat too, why should the shameless Li Family benefit! “Zhuzhu is so smart! You must be tired too, rest well at home. Jinhua, take good care of your old cousin. Eldest Brother’s wife, come with me—” “Ah!” Lady Lin promptly agreed. “Mom, where are you going?” Wang Yongzhu asked anxiously. “Where am I going? I’m going to knock on the Li Family’s door to ask how they raised such a slut! Your Fourth Brother broke someone’s leg over her and for that, our family had to pay half a string of money. All because of that little slut and now, while your Fourth Brother is out there struggling to pay debts, she’s home screwing around with the scum from the He Family! Are they trying to rip our Old Wang Family’s face off and stomp on it on the ground? If I don’t beat that little bitch into a pig’s head today, I’m not surnamed Zhang!” With that, she rushed to the kitchen, grabbed a kitchen knife in her left hand and picked up a chopping board with her right, calling on Lady Lin, “Eldest Brother’s wife, come with me to the Li Family! If Old Granny doesn’t show her might, they think I’m a sick cat! Lady Lin had already grabbed a rolling pin, waiting for her mother-in-law’s command to set off. Although she had her own schemes on normal days, at a critical moment like this, if the Wang Family lost face, so did she. Naturally, she had to uphold her family’s honor. If the Wang Family wimped out today, they could no longer hold their heads up high in Qilidun nor speak with any weight! What were the Li Family, to dare to trample on the Wang Family’s head and nestle in? Despite being at a disadvantage under Old Granny Zhang’s hand, Lady Lin was an exceedingly fierce figure outside. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, rarely united in heart, were determined to make a big scene at the Li Family. “Mom, I’ll go with you too!” Wang Yongzhu could not rest easy. Of course, she also had the personal desire to witness how Old Granny Zhang wielded her power. Usually so obedient, Old Granny Zhang wouldn’t relent this time, “Zhuzhu, you mustn’t go! This kind of thing, you are an unmarried young lady, stay out of it, it’s not good for your reputation. Don’t worry, I have it all figured out. As long as this gets out, everyone will say that the little slut from the Li Family is promiscuous, and the Li Family will be the ones at fault. Your eldest sister-in-law and I will handle it, just two women, no matter how we make a fuss, it’s just a quarrel between women. If their family’s men dare to lay a hand, then it won’t just be a matter between two families. Li Dagui, that clever bastard, won’t make such a foolish move at this time! Hmph, today the Li Family has nothing to do but tuck their heads between their legs and let Old Granny curse as much as she wants!” Looking at Old Granny Zhang, Wang Yongzhu’s eyes were filled with admiration. Who says country women are ignorant? Old Granny Zhang certainly knows how to grasp people’s hearts; everything was within her calculations. With Old Granny Zhang clarifying the situation that clearly, Wang Yongzhu was no longer worried. Lady Jiang, standing by, gathered her courage to speak up, “Mother, I’ll go too—” Lady Jiang was a woman with a clear understanding of matters, knowing that if she didn’t stand up at this time, once the issue was resolved, her mother-in-law would pick on her first. Moreover, the Wang Family was her marital home, the place where she found her footing and purpose. In a situation concerning the whole family, it was only natural to hope for everyone to be united. Old Granny Zhang rolled her eyes, “What use would it be if you went? Could you pull out the hair of that woman from the Li Family, or could you curse that little wretch from the Li Family until she couldn’t raise her head in shame? With the way you are, we’d have to protect you if you went. Don’t get in the way! Just stay home honestly and keep an eye on your younger sister!” Having said that, she waved her hand and, filled with a bold and imposing aura, headed towards the Li Family—the matter had become quite serious! Wang Yongzhu couldn’t stay put at home, torn with worry. On the one hand, she was concerned that Fourth Brother might truly be blinded by anger and commit murder; on the other hand, she was anxious about Old Granny Zhang’s success in the confrontation. Restless and uneasy, she could only pace around the courtyard. Wang Laozhu watched her pace until he felt dizzy, “Girl, if you can’t sit still, go lie down in the house for a while.” Wang Yongzhu was in no mood to rest, but looking at the dark expression on Wang Laozhu’s face, she thought for a moment and then went into the firewood storage room. She hadn’t checked on the Yellow Pine Mushrooms today. Upon lifting the covering leaves, she found that the mycelium had completely covered her makeshift cultivation bed, providing her with some comfort. She then diluted some Genetic Liquid a bit more and watered them again. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a noise at the side door of the firewood room. She went over and saw several Little Beans from her family waving at her; when they saw her coming out, they all said softly, “Auntie, this way.” Wang Yongzhu walked over lightly. The firewood room had two doors: one to carry firewood in, and the other connected to the kitchen area. The one for carrying firewood was linked with the back yard gate. Seeing Wang Yongzhu come out, the Little Beans pulled at her eagerly, “Auntie, do you want to go to the Li Family’s place?” What a silly question! Of course she did! So, the aunt and her nephews and nieces followed in Old Granny Zhang’s wake and rushed towards the Li Family as well. At this moment, the Li Family was in chaos. Li Jinzhi’s father, Li Dagui, was a shrewd country man. Having been busy in the fields with his son all morning, he returned home to find no hot tea or meal ready for him, only a hot mess awaiting him. After hearing his wife stutter and stammer her way halfway through the story, he had a good idea of what was going on. He gestured for his wife to go make meals in the kitchen. After half a day’s work, his stomach was empty; nothing is more important than a meal when you’re hungry. Once his wife had left, he called his daughter over for a talk. Compared to his foolish wife, he didn’t take more than a few words to thoroughly uncover what his daughter had been hiding.
