Divorce with three kids? I'll build a house and eat meat, driving my in-laws crazy.

Chapter 186 Did you just laugh?

Zhao used this tactic to classify Li Ruru as a member of the Chen family.

As long as Li Ruru is a member of the Chen family, everything she owns will belong to the Chen family.

In other words, no matter what the village head and his men dug up, whether it was junk or treasure, it had to be handed over to Zhao.

Hai was furious when she heard this, and pointed at Zhao's nose and cursed: "You old hag, you're quite the schemer."

"Let me tell you, even if Aru is gone, you won't be able to take a single needle or thread from her house."

After scolding Zhao, she then scolded Wang Shuixia and the other two: "A bunch of vicious women who bully my Aru all the time, and now they're pretending to be good people. Heaven is watching what people do, be careful a lightning bolt strikes you dead."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a thunderclap exploded above Chenjia Village.

With a loud bang, Zhao and the other three were terrified. They stopped crying and making a fuss and quickly stood up obediently.

They were terrified that if they said an extra word or made a random movement, they would be struck by lightning.

Chen Jingang, standing in the crowd, clenched his fists as he looked at Bai Lu's delicate figure.

He silently told himself not to rush, to take it slow, and that he would marry her sooner or later.

Seeing that the four Zhao family members remained silent, Hai roared, "Get out! Get out of here now!"

Zhao trembled in fright, the fear of being dominated by her third sister-in-law returning to her mind.

She said, trembling, "I'll leave, why are you being so mean to me?"

Anyway, she's already made it clear that everything in Li Ruru's house belongs to the Chen family.

If Hai and the village head dared to make a move, she would report it to the authorities.

Since Li Ruru is already dead, she can say whatever she wants.

As soon as Zhao left, the three daughters-in-law lost their backbone and immediately became timid, tucking their tails between their legs and chasing after the direction Zhao had left in.

Chen Ertong, fearing his wife might fall, followed her.

Chen Sanbao didn't want to get wet in the rain, so he hurriedly went home.

Chen Dagang and Chen Bingxiao, along with Chen Jingang and Chen Jintong, were still standing in the crowd watching the excitement.

They wouldn't leave; they wanted to keep an eye on the others. Li Ruru's money couldn't fall into the hands of others.

The village head led everyone to dig in the rain for two hours, only to find a pile of useless daily necessities.

The rain is still falling, and it seems to be getting heavier.

His dark face was full of sorrow. "Everyone, go back first."

Everyone stared at him in disbelief. Were they going to stop digging? What if... what if someone was still alive?
Lu Da sighed again. It had been so long; even if there was still a sliver of hope left, it was too late to save him.

"It's getting late, let's come back to dig tomorrow."

Neither Hai nor Pan Dayan left. The two families dug for a long time until it gradually got dark, when they finally left with sighs and hoarse voices.

As the crowd dispersed, Bai Lu, Chu Xiu, and Xiao Wu, the three mud figures, knelt motionless on the ground.

Just then, a moo suddenly came from the courtyard.

Chu Xiu looked up and saw the familiar old yellow ox, with a strong horse following beside it.

The two animals barked at the three of them for a while, then turned and barked a few more times towards the direction of the cave.

Xiao Wu stood up, rubbed his numb legs, and touched the bull's head.

Pressing against its cow face, tears finally streamed down my face.

"Godmother... Waaah..."

The godmother is gone, but the cow and the horse are still alive.

He saw them as if they were his family, and he hugged the cow's head and the horse's head and cried.

Xiao Wu cried so hard she could barely breathe, but she was afraid Chu Xiu would get angry if he heard her.

He managed to keep his voice down, his whole body trembling.

Just then, an untimely voice came from behind.

Chen Bingxiao said, "These oxen and horses belong to my family."

Chen Dagang chimed in, "Yes, they belong to my family now."

The father and son had waited there for so long, their clothes soaked through, and finally, their wait was over. They hadn't found any silver, but they had a cow and a horse, so they had made a profit.

These two beasts together can fetch 50 taels of silver; they've struck it rich.

The undisguised excitement in their eyes was glaringly obvious to Xiao Wu.

Their godmother is dead, and they're still laughing, still trying to seize her family fortune. No way.

Xiao Wu silently approached the two of them, and without saying a word, started fighting.

Chen Dagang never expected that he, a tall and strong man, would be no match for this young upstart.

Chen Bingxiao never expected that someone would dare to lay a hand on an old man like him, at his advanced age.

What happened to the principles of respecting the elderly and caring for the young, and upholding propriety, righteousness, integrity, and a sense of shame?

While the two men were being beaten, Chen Jingang quietly ran away.

Knowing he couldn't beat Xiao Wu, he could only run away first.

He didn't care at all about his father and grandfather being chased and beaten.

Why think so much? They've lived for so long, what's wrong with taking a few hits?

He's still young, and he'll get married and start a family someday. It won't do if he gets hurt.

Besides, if Xiao Wu were to seriously injure or even kill Grandpa, he could still receive compensation.

In any case, he won't suffer a loss.

Chen Bingxiao, an old man, could not withstand Xiao Wu's beating any longer, so he shrank to the side and prepared to run away.

Suddenly he looked up and saw the horse, so he bent down to pull on the reins.

The horse, which had been standing quietly, suddenly let out a long neigh and raised its front hooves high.

Chen Bingxiao was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and his leg was trampled hard by the horse.

"Ouch, ouch, it hurts so much!" He curled up in pain, clutching his leg.

Hearing his father's calls, Chen Dagang rushed to help.

Xiao Wu strode onto his horse and looked down at them, saying, "I'll count to three. If you don't run now, you'll miss your chance."

"If you dare hit my father, I'll fight you to the death!" Chen Dagang shouted, but he didn't dare to take a single step forward.

"This horse trampled my leg, you have to pay for it, or I'll report it to the authorities!" Chen Bingxiao roared.

Xiao Wu coldly replied, "One, two..."

Before he could even count to three, he raised his whip, and the horse charged towards the two of them like an arrow released from a bow.

"My goodness..." Chen Dagang didn't care about Chen Bingxiao and ran faster than a rabbit.

He ran while yelling, "You haven't even counted to three yet! How can you be so untrustworthy?"

Chen Bingxiao struggled to his feet and limped forward.

Xiao Wu rode his horse and chased after Chen Dagang. He saw Chen Dagang panic, fall down and get up again, and Xiao Wu was so scared that he wet his pants.

As he continued his pursuit, Xiao Wu used the same tactic to chase after Chen Bingxiao.

After scaring the two half to death, he returned to Li Ruru's house.

Looking at the collapsed house, he felt a pang of disappointment, and the pleasure he had just felt from humiliating the Chen family quickly vanished.

The three fell silent again, as did the horses and cattle in the yard.

Just then, a timid voice came from behind.

Chen Huaidi mustered her courage and stepped forward to Bai Lu, saying, "Beautiful sister, could you give me that basket next to your feet?"

The basket contained several pieces of cloth, which were now even more vibrant after being washed by the torrential rain.

Bai Lu didn't recognize her and blankly handed over the basket.

She was still immersed in immense pain, and her mind was completely unable to think clearly.

Chen Huaidi got a few pieces of fabric and was about to leave happily when Chu Xiu grabbed her by the collar.

He said coldly, "Were you laughing just now? My godmother is dead, and you can still laugh?"
