Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

As soon as the Yu family left, the Liu family breathed a sigh of relief. Old Master Liu sighed, "It's all thanks to the old clan chief! If it weren't for him today, this matter probably wouldn't have ended well."

"Mother, take out some silver. I'll go to the village to buy a chicken and stew it for Yu Shi."

Since you promised them, you have to keep your word. If we don't, and the Yu family finds out, there will be another uproar, and then the village chief and clan head won't help us anymore.

"As for the five taels of silver given as a betrothal gift in August, you'll have to figure out where to get a little from here and there, and where else you can get it."

"Mother, you promised the Yu family that you have all the money in the house. Where would I get any money? If they come looking for trouble, they'll have to come to you. It has nothing to do with me."

"Huang, you're a jinx! Our Liu family must have been cursed for eight lifetimes to marry you."

"I feel like I've had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to marry into your Liu family. I have to serve the old and the young, and even take care of a cripple, cleaning up his excrement and urine."

That's bad enough, but I didn't even get any good out of it. All I got were beatings and insults. I'm done. Whoever wants to do it can do it, or else forget it.

And you, you old woman, since I married into your Liu family, have you ever cooked a single meal? Have you ever worked in the fields? Have you ever washed a single piece of clothing? You are greedy, lazy, and wicked at heart.

"You disobedient and unfilial brat, I'm going to make Da Hu divorce you."

"Go ahead and take a break, that's good. What kind of life have I been living for the past six months? Has any of you seen it? I've been working from dawn till dusk without a moment's rest, and not one of you has helped me."

Starting today, I'm not cooking anymore. Eat it if you want, don't eat it if you don't.

"Huang Lanhua, you've got some nerve! I haven't even settled accounts with you for the trouble your brothers caused, and you dare to disrespect your parents? I'll teach you a lesson today!"

"Hahaha, Liu Dahu, you still want to use me to pay off your debt? You useless man, besides getting angry at your woman, yelling and shouting, what else can you do? You're just a piece of trash."

"You lazy and gluttonous family, without me, you'd all probably starve to death."

Huang Lanhua was heartbroken by this family today, so she spoke recklessly, letting out all the words she had been holding back.

Liu Dahu was furious and was about to pounce on Huang Lanhua when his father stopped him.

Liu Yiyue quickly stepped in to smooth things over, "Father, Mother, Grandfather, Grandmother, please stop arguing. The matter has been resolved, and we should be happy."

Since we've already promised the Yu family, and besides, my sister-in-law is also a member of the Liu family, it's only right that we give her something nice to eat.

Grandma, take out some money and let Mom buy a chicken. It's cold now, and one chicken will last us for several days.

Old Mrs. Liu was quite afraid of the Yu family, but she still took out 500 coins and gave them to Huang Lanhua, saying, "Spend these 500 coins sparingly, and make sure you take good care of her during her postpartum period."

Huang Lanhua took the silver without saying a word, turned around and left, and Liu Yiyue quickly followed.

"Father, why did you stop me from teaching Huang a lesson? She's so arrogant! If I don't teach her a lesson, she won't know who she is!"

"Boss, don't you know what our family's situation is right now?"

If Huang really quits, who will do the housework and the farm work?

"Hmph! Even without her, we still have Mother, don't we?"

"Eldest son, Mom is getting old, are you trying to work me to death?"

I just said it casually today because I was angry. You're her man, she cares more about your attitude. You should treat her better in the future. Your leg is inconvenient, you'll have to rely on her from now on.

Liu Dahu remained silent, realizing that what he had said was indeed hurtful. Even between husband and wife, grudges can linger overnight; he would just coax him later.

Huang Lanhua returned to her room, lay down on the bed, and started sobbing while hugging the blanket. She was so sad. She had devoted herself to this family, to her son, and to her husband. She had made a joke out of her life. After decades of marriage, she was now being asked to pay off her debts with her own body.

"Mother, please stop crying. Father was just saying that in anger. He would never really let you pay off the debt. Besides, I wouldn't agree to it either."

Mother was injured today too. Give me the money, and I'll go to the village to buy a chicken to help her recover.

"My dear daughter, you are the only person I can rely on now."

"You're not familiar with the village, so let me go buy it."

Huang Lanhua went out and bought an old hen from her neighbor. She slaughtered and plucked the chicken, found a large earthenware pot, put half a chicken in, and slowly stewed it.

"Daughter, keep an eye on the chicken soup. I'll go out and see if anyone has any fine grains, buy some, and make porridge for your sister-in-law."

"Mother, you go ahead, I'll look after things at home."

Liu Siyue also heard about what happened at the Liu family's old house and knew that Liu Yiyue was sick. She didn't care at all, but Madam Feng was a little worried, afraid that Liu Yiyue would get hurt.

"I hope nothing bad has happened to your eldest sister over there in April. I'm a little worried. Didn't Doctor Wu say she had a fever and was sick?"

"Mother, why are you worrying so much! Doctor Wu has already examined her, hasn't he? What's there to be worried about?"

"Mother is worried that her health won't be able to handle it; what if something bad happens to her?"

"Even if something goes wrong, it's none of my business; she chose this path herself."

"How did you two sisters end up like this? You're both grown up now, and your mother can't persuade you anymore."

"Mom, let's not talk about these unhappy things. I have something to tell you. There are enough people working now. I'll ask Sister Ruyun to take a few uncles back and teach them how to make tofu."

Besides, my fourth, fifth, and sixth uncles have just gotten married. It's not right to leave their wives at home to work for us every day.

They each have their own land and need to plow in the spring. They can't just think of themselves; they have to think of others too, Mother, don't you agree?

"Oh dear, Master's wife didn't think this through. Now that everyone has separated and is living separately, it's really not appropriate for your three aunts to live alone at home. I'll talk to them about it after work tonight."

The Yu family was very frustrated because they hadn't gotten any money from the Liu family. They gave each of their cousins ​​50 coins and told them to go to Huangjia Village later and do their best to earn some money.

The men were overjoyed to receive the copper coins. "Brother Changsheng, whatever you say, we brothers will do it without hesitation."

When the Yu family went to Huangjia Village to inquire about Huang Lanhua's maternal home, the people of Huangjia Village, seeing so many people arrive, wondered what they wanted and wanted to find out.

"Who are you? Why are you asking about Huang Lanhua's family background?"

"We are the family of Huang Lanhua's eldest daughter-in-law. We need to speak with the Huang family about something, and we would appreciate it if any of our fellow villagers could show us the way."

There were some busybodies in the village who knew something was up here, and they were sure this would be interesting to watch. Huang Ermao stood up and said, "Oh, so you're relatives! Come on, I'll take you there."

"Thanks, bro!"

Huang Ermao led the people to the place, saying, "This is Huang Lanfang's family home. Please go in."

Yu Laosan stepped forward and pushed the door open. The door was closed, so he started banging on it, yelling, "Hey Huang, come out and open the door for me! You're hiding in there like a coward!"

The Huang brothers have been afraid to go out these past few days, staying at home with the door closed, for fear that someone will come looking for them.

"They're here! They've come knocking on our door, Mom! What should we do?"

"What else can we do? Let your sister handle it! As long as your sister can suppress this matter, it's not a big deal."

"Yeah, we're scared. We don't know who's coming."

The knocking grew louder. "If you don't open the door, we won't be so polite."

"You all stay at home and behave yourselves. I'm going out to see what's going on. You're all good-for-nothings. You think you can be afraid of them in your own village?"
