71 The Villagers’ Look
If the chiefs and Land Officers could help her realize the wish, that would be great.
Soon, Yang Liang and Ms. Tian came over.
Yang Liang’s face sank as he glared at Yang Xiaoni. This damned girl had reported them to Third Grandpa Yang! What a heartless girl!
Ms. Tian cursed Yang Xiaoni fiercely. “You bitch, what are you being so crazy for! I feed you and give you a place to live, but you are not satisfied with it and come to report your brother and sister-in-law to the public! How dare you!”
Hearing that she was turning the truth upside down, the chiefs and Land Officer as well as the villagers were disgusted and irritated.
“Ms. Tian, what are you talking about!”
“Shame on you!”
“You aren’t afraid of being punished by heaven?”
The Land Officer said coldly, “Ms. Tian, we have rules in our village. You are the Yang Family’s daughter-in-law, and you should not ruin your family’s name. Your in-laws are dead, and Xiaoni has been working so devotedly for years. How can you treat her like this? Yang Liang, how dare you bully your sister like this? Aren’t you afraid that your deceased parents would turn into ghosts and come to you at night!”
Yang Liang cringed and stood in the corner, showing a little fear.
Ms. Tian shouted. “Land Officer, you should not wrong me! This bitch… Xiaoni has grown up and she can’t just live under our roof without doing anything, right? Every girl in the village works. You don’t know that this girl is really lazy and tricky. She is greedy and craves food all the time. If we don’t urge her to work, she won’t even move an inch. I have to teach her as a sister-in-law all the time! I am teaching her a lesson, not bullying her! Who says that I am bullying her? Come and show me the proof!”
“You!” The Land Officer was very annoyed.
The villagers exchanged a helpless look among themselves and could not say a thing.
It was a family affair that could not be explained clearly. No one could stand up and show the proof. How could there be a proof for something like this?
Ms. Tian showed a look of pride and snorted. “Bitch, what are you staying here for? You should remember which family you are living under!”
She meant to tell her that she was living under her roof!
Yang Xiaoni was sobbing as she grabbed Third Grandma Yang’s arms. “No, I am not going back. She is going to kill me!”
“Shut up, that is enough, what are you talking about?” Yang Liang was annoyed too as he snapped at her in a fierce voice.
This bitch should not have spread bad things about the family to outsiders!
“You two treat her like this in front of us. How can we trust that you treat her well behind our back!” Third Grandma Yang said annoyedly, “I watched Xiaoni growing up and she is a really good girl. How can you think that you are reasonable, when you lecture her and order to do this and that all the time? Ms. Tian, don’t think so highly of yourself. Just because no one can prove it doesn’t necessarily mean that you have done nothing! You know pretty well what you have done! Everyone can see that you have done something bad. Watch out for repayment!”
“Okay, now, I am going to ask you what you are going to do with Xiaoni’s marriage!”
Ms. Tian was feeling so annoyed and cursed this old grandma for being nosy. She snorted. “That is our business!”
“This is the Yang’s family and when your parents were alive, they respected me enough. Xiaoni calls me Third Grandma, so I have the right to ask you about it.”
Ms. Tian was about to say something when Third Grandma Yang said coldly, “Yang Liang, you are the master of the family. Are you going to keep Xiaoni until she gets too old to marry someone? Are you sure this is the right thing to show respect to your parents?”
