erial examination, Zong Bai can take it. As for money matters, you don't have to worry, my brother and I will figure something out."Her words left the three members of the Zong family dumbfounded. Mu'..."Mu Yunhe, what did you just say"

Zong Pingkang's hand was bruised and swollen by Zong Yu's grip, a searing pain that shot through him with every touch. The two of them dared not take another step forward, their faces etched with fear.

It had become a habit for Mrs. Wu to bully her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Mu, and she was also accustomed to Mrs. Mu's submissive and fearful demeanor.

It's simply unbelievable to hear this, that it would be something said by that frail little mousy daughter-in-law.

"You made Zong Yu crush his uncle's hand like this, and he still dares to push me Such a rebellious thing, today I would beat him to death and no one would dare say a word against it."

"You bunch of ingrates, I see you've grown tired of living! Tomorrow, I'll tell the whole village that your entire family are unfilial white-eyed wolves."

"You still want to let Zong Bai take the imperial examinations As if! Dream on."

Old Mrs. Wu's laughter was unrestrained, she didn't notice at all that the three Mu sisters' faces had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Zong Bai had long endured enough. He turned and knelt before his mother with a thud.

"Mother, Bai'er will not take the imperial examinations. From this day forward, I will never touch a book again."

"Do you value fame, wealth and status so much My son would rather die with dignity than live a humiliated life."

I would rather not see Big Brother and you both being oppressed.

Mu shi lovingly helped her second son up, "My poor boy, it was mother who was wrong."

"I thought that as long as we stayed far away from them, and lived a life of non-interference with the world, there would be a day when we would finally make it out."

"Now it seems I was mistaken."

She glared at Old Madam Wu, "Mother, you said back then that as long as we paid back the money your husband spent on his studies, you wouldn't bother us anymore. Was that true or not"

Although Mu spoke in such a way, her heart had already seen through Old Madam Wu's deception.

Fang Jinshu's heart was shaking her head. Her mother-in-law was simply too kind and naive.

At first glance, Old Mrs. Wu looked like a formidable old woman, with a sharp and fierce countenance. Even when she first appeared, it was clear that she wasn't someone who kept her word.

"Of course it's true," Old Madam Wu snorted with a smile.

"At my age, would I still deceive you"

"If you have money, bring it out now. Make your son kneel down and kowtow to me and his uncle three times to apologize. I won't hold this against you."

"By the way, there's also the wild boar I hunted today. I was going to save some for the boss and you guys."

"Seeing that you still have money to marry a wife for him, you should not starve. As for the wild boars, you don't need to slaughter and process them yourselves anymore. Just hand them all over."

Zong Yulian slept soundly, she only heard the commotion and hurriedly put on her clothes to run to Mu Shi's side.

I just happened to hear what Old Madam Wu said. Although I don't know what happened, why is she here so late at night

He glared fiercely at Fang Jinshu.

If it weren't for her being so bold and driving away her uncle during the day, they would have taken the pork back home and wouldn't be here at night.

"This is impossible!" Zong Bai shouted angrily.

Our family has run out of food. The eldest brother finally managed to hunt a wild boar back, and mother’s medicine is also finished.

"We'll just sell this pig for some money to buy medicine and grain. What are we going to do if you take everything"

He nervously looked at Mu Shi, "Mother, please don't listen to Nanny."

When Old Madam Wu saw Zong Bai speak up, she flew into a rage and scolded him harshly.

"You little brat, mind your own business when adults are talking!"

She was about to raise her hand and slap him.

Mrs. Wu thought to herself, if she couldn't handle Zong Yu, this vicious troublemaker, could she not at least handle Zong Bai, this little brat

He didn't dare to fight back.

"Stop!"

Mu stood in front of her son, watching as Wu Lao Tai's slap was about to land on her face.

Fang Jinshi had been quietly observing the situation. She couldn't let her mother-in-law be bullied, Mu Shi was the first person who had truly treated her well since she came to this world.

She took advantage of the darkness, as everyone's attention was focused on Old Lady Wu and Mu Shi, and secretly snuck behind Zong Ping Kang to kick him in the back.

He fell directly towards Old Wu's direction.

Before Old Madam Wu's palm could land, she suddenly heard her son let out a scream. By the time she recovered, she was pinned to the ground by her eldest son, unable to move.

Zongping Kang was a glutton and a lazy person, he never treated himself poorly. He was so heavy that he almost crushed Old Lady Wu to death.

The mother and child cried out in pain, their cries echoing back and forth, it was quite comical to watch.

After finishing the bad deed, Fang Jinshu hid aside and snickered, getting caught by Zong Yu's gaze.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she immediately composed herself, hiding her smile.

Even if she is just the respected grandmother of the clan, wouldn't he be angryss, provoking her like this when they had such a big weakness in her hands.Especially this orchid, again and again, she has been causing trouble in the village. It seems like today, if I don't give he...
