73 Dumb
Since she kept saying that they were doing this for Yang Xiaoni’s sake, then alright, do it for her!
Yang Xiaoni did not want to go home with her brother and sister-in-law.
“Third Grandma, Land Officer, and Chief Grandpas, could I just stay at the ancestral hall? I can do all kinds of work. Third Grandma, I can work for you, but please just give me some food. I don’t eat much, really not!”
Yang Xiaoni cried so badly as she did not let go of Third Grandma Yang’s arms.
Everyone felt sorry for her but could not say a thing.
The ancestral hall was very sinister, with no one living there and nothing except for the ancestral tablets. Only those who made big mistakes would be ordered to live there. Otherwise, no one else would do so willingly.
This girl must have got so frightened that she could not think clearly!
If this couple had any conscience, this girl would not have made such a request!
Both Yang Liang and Ms. Tian were furious.
“What are you doing? Just follow us home quietly! Why are you going to the ancestral hall when you have a home?” Yang Liang’s veins were almost popping out on his forehead.
This ungrateful girl!
Ms. Tian sneered. “This damned girl is thinking about doing no work! Don’t listen to her nonsense!”
Yang Liang got even more furious. He tugged at Yang Xiaoni and said, “Just shut up and come home with us!”
Yang Xiaoni cried loudly. “Please, save me, Third Grandma Yang, please!”
No one should live in the ancestral hall for no reason. Third Grandma Yang sighed and said, “It is okay, Xiaoni, just go home. If anyone hits you or lectures you, just come to me and I will seek justice for you! We are a family and we should not allow anyone to preach or hit people. We will teach her a lesson, if she dares to do so. We need to make sure that the whole clan is clean and has a good reputation!”
The other aunts also came to console Yang Xiaoni, who was still crying out of fear.
All the bystanders felt very sorry.
What a pity…
She was a nice girl but with such a couple as the brother and sister-in-law, she was going to suffer a great deal.
In the end, Third Grandma Yang asked Yang Xiaoni to stay at her place overnight and leave the next day.
Yang Liang and Ms. Tian glared at Yang Xiaoni and left.
The bystanders all sighed, shook their heads and also left.
Back at home, Ms. Tian kept hitting Yang Liang whilst cursing him.
Yang Liang felt so annoyed that he started to dislike Yang Xiaoni as well.
She was just asked to do some labor work. What was she being so stingy for? Her brother and sister-in-law were supporting her. In return, she did not even want to help with some work?
Worse, she even got her brother and sister-in-law humiliated in front of the whole village.
Daughters always turned their elbows out against their own family.
Ms. Fang learned of what happened at the Yang Family the following day. She told Qiao Xuan about this, but she also felt quite worried.
Qiao Xuan consoled her. “Don’t worry, Mom. Yang Xiaoni seems to be quite clever, and she won’t lose much. Ms. Tian won’t dare to kill her anyway, right? Mom, what about reminding Third Brother that he should not meet Yang Xiaoni privately for sometime. What if they were caught, that would be very bad…”
Ms. Fang agreed and told Shao Sanlang about this.
Shao Sanlang was very anxious. He was afraid that Yang Xiaoni would face trouble. But he did not dare to do a thing, especially since his mother warned him not to be impulsive.
Qiao Xuan’s land was finally ready. There was no brick wall around the patch, but bamboos were set up around the perimeter.
Behind that, all the iron fences dug from the mountains were put up and wild roses, which could climb along the wall, were planted as well.
