Chapter 401 The Vain Little Aunt 1
Chapter 401 The Vain Little Aunt 1
She picked up the broom beside her and shouted angrily, "Chen Guihua, shut your stinky mouth, damn it, you actually threw dirty water into our house, get out, get out now!"
The old hen can lay eggs, and one egg costs two copper coins, so the old hen itself can be sold for a lot of money.
Chen Guihua was reluctant to leave in order to find the old hen. Even though she waved the broom angrily at the old woman, she still shouted unwillingly.
"Bah, you actually accused me of throwing dirty water? Everyone in the village knows how poor your Xiang family is. Can these chicken feathers really be from your own chicken?"
"If you raise chickens at home, let me come over and see them now. I want to see what your chickens look like."
Chen Guihua's old hen is very shiny and plump, with a few tufts of white hair on its neck.
Everyone in the village has seen it. Such white and yellow chickens are really rare.
It was for this reason that Chen Guihua was certain that the chicken feathers on the ground were related to her lost chicken.
Mrs. Xiang had naturally seen Chen Guihua's old hen, and it did look different from ordinary hens.
She took a look at the chicken feathers on the ground and her expression looked a little strange. The chicken feathers on the ground were indeed white.
But she definitely didn't steal Chen Guihua's chicken.
"No, what if you go in and steal my things? Everyone knows that you, Chen Guihua, are not clean. People are drying peanuts under the eaves, and you can't help but want to take a few. Who in the village dares to let you in?"
Chen Guihua is indeed a weirdo. She is well-known in the village for being stingy and loving to take advantage of others. She wants to take away everything she sees.
Whenever there was a banquet in the village, she would give the smallest share, and every time she would eat and take something too. Many people in the village disliked her.
If Chen Guihua went to someone's house, she would definitely burn something in the house. It was so spooky.
Chen Guihua felt very embarrassed that Xiang Pozi had revealed her past in front of everyone, and she was so angry that her chest heaved.
The two families were at a stalemate, so someone had no choice but to invite the village head.
As soon as Chen Guihua saw the village head, she started wiping away her tears.
"Li Zheng, you have to take charge of this matter for me. This family depends on this old hen, and I didn't expect someone to steal it. They are really bullying me."
Chen Guihua was convinced that the Xiang family had stolen her chickens, so she stood with her hands on her hips and gnashed her teeth.
"Nonsense, how could we have stolen it? The chicken is gone, and you didn't go looking for it, but you actually want to blackmail us."
The village head saw that the two women were about to quarrel again, so he stood in the middle and shouted to stop them.
"Alright, stop arguing. What's the point of arguing? One of you can't prove that you didn't steal the chicken, and the other can't prove that the chicken was stolen from the Xiang family."
"Mother Xiang, are you sure you didn't steal the chicken?"
"I am sure."
"Okay, Chen Guihua, are you also sure that the Xiang family stole the chickens?"
"The chicken feathers are still lying on the ground. They must have been stolen from their house."
"Okay, the husband has his reasons and the wife has her reasons. Let's do as I say. I'll go in and have a good look to see if the chicken is at Xiang's house."
The village head was about to go inside when Chen Guihua grabbed him and said, "Village head, you can't protect the Xiang family. If..."
Before Chen Guihua could finish her words, the head of the village interrupted her coldly, "Who do you think I am? Your two families have no relationship with me, so who can I protect?"
"Yes, yes. No, no. Stop talking nonsense to me. I only care about fairness."
This sentence left Chen Guihua speechless and she could only stand by and watch the head of the village enter Xiang's house.
Ah Zhi was carefully observing the expressions of her family members. In order to find out as soon as possible whether the current situation was beneficial to her, she chose to receive the original body's memories at this time.
This time, I still traveled to the world of a novel, and my original self was a comparison picture of the heroine in the novel.
When Xiang Pozi was 40 years old, she gave birth to a pearl. Her youngest daughter was born in the same year as her eldest daughter-in-law. Xiang Pozi and Xiang Laotou had three sons and one daughter.
The eldest son is Xiang Youfu, the second son is Xiang Youlu, the third son is Xiang Youshou, and the youngest daughter is Xiang Yun. Among the four children, Xiang Yun is the one that Xiang Po likes the most.
This girl is simply her favorite. Even though the family is so poor that they can't even afford to eat, Mrs. Xiang still gives all the good things to Xiang Yun.
Even sons and grandsons are not as precious as daughters. Apart from Xiang Yun, Xiang Youshou is the most favored.
The youngest son and daughter have one thing in common: they are both good-looking.
Xiang Yun was raised in the care of Mrs. Xiang. Unlike other girls of her age who worked all year round, she was inevitably exposed to the sun, which made her skin rough and dark.
Xiang Yun had a slim figure and was quite pretty, and many men wanted to marry her when she just turned 15.
It’s just that Xiang Yun was praised too much, so naturally she became more cunning, and her mind was filled with thoughts of becoming a phoenix.
The heroine of this world is Xiang Youfu’s eldest daughter, Xiang Qingcao. She and Xiang Yun were born in the same year, but their destinies are completely different.
Since she was a child, Xiang Qingcao had to help with housework and serve as Xiang Yun's maid, serving tea and water to her aunt.
Different from Xiang Yun who always dreams of climbing up the ladder, Xiang Qingcao is down-to-earth, hard-working and able to endure hardships. By chance, Xiang Qingcao had a dream.
The dream was very long, and she learned to cook all kinds of delicious food in the dream.
I also saw that the woman in the dream could go to school. There were iron horses, tall buildings reaching into the sky, and people in scantily clad clothes walking on the street in the dream.
They were free and every one of them had a smile on his face.
As soon as Xiang Qingcao woke up, she learned how to cook all kinds of delicious food. She also sold the lunch boxes she learned in her dream, which really helped her earn her first pot of gold.
At the same time, she also found a chalcedony bracelet in the old house.
A spiritual spring can actually appear in this bracelet. As long as you drink the spiritual spring, you will become more and more beautiful.
The spiritual spring can be added to desserts to increase the flavor, and the spiritual spring irrigation can also accelerate the growth of plants. The plants irrigated with the spiritual spring will taste much better. Generally speaking, the spiritual spring is a great treasure.
With good cooking skills and spiritual spring water, Xiang Qingcao started out selling boxed lunches and braised food, and slowly started to run a hotpot restaurant, and his business became more and more prosperous.
Xiang Qingcao was pursued by various outstanding men, including the God of War, the Prince, the Crown Prince, and even the middle-aged emperor in the palace confessed his love to her.
But Xiang Qingcao didn't like anyone, so she chose to marry the knight-errant.
However, the daughter she gave birth to married into the royal family and became the queen.
Xiang Yun is a typical negative example in the story. She is vain, hypocritical and weak, and she cries when something happens.
When she was sixteen, she used tricks to snatch a marriage from Qingcao and shamelessly married into a wealthy family. Unexpectedly, her husband died before they even had their wedding night.
Xiang Yun was accused of being a jinx and was sent back. Unwilling to accept her unhappy life, she wanted to hook up with the good man around Xiang Qingcao, but she was exposed every time.
Mother Xiang and Old Man Xiang died one after another. The restless Xiang Yun was forced by Xiang Qingcao to marry Guo San, a pork seller. She gave birth to three daughters but was still chased and beaten by Guo San.
(I am unwilling to accept this. I just want to live a good life. I don’t want my whole life to be stuck in the mud. What have I done wrong? In today’s world, it is useless to rely on myself. Why not choose to cling to others?)
(I wish I had Xiang Qingcao's luck. Everyone likes her, and I have a golden opportunity. Please, help me change my fate. I also want to live a good life, better than Xiang Qingcao's. No matter what means you use, please don't let me marry Guo San again.)
This Guo San was completely attracted by the original body's beauty, and as far as he could remember, he was nice to the original body at the beginning.
As his original self was not efficient and gave birth to three daughters in a row, Guo San was completely changed.
On the surface, Guo San assured Xiang Qingcao that he would be nice to Xiang Yun, but in fact he was very rude to Xiang Yun in every way.
In the end, he even wanted to abandon Xiang Yun because he wanted to marry another woman and have a son.
When Guo San was forty years old, he told Xiang Qingcao his idea, and Xiang Qingcao actually agreed.
He also felt guilty for Xiang Yun not giving Guo San a son, so he personally gave her one thousand taels as compensation.
Guo San drove Xiang Yun back to the dilapidated house and happily married her.
Xiang Yun froze to death on the straw in the cold winter.
Ah Zhi covered her chest with her hands and looked very ugly. Seeing this, Mrs. Xiang beside her hurriedly supported her.
"What's wrong? Why does your face look so bad? Did you catch a cold?"
Mrs. Xiang is now in her fifties, and her face is covered with many wrinkles.
In my memory, she was worried about her daughter and she really loved Xiang Yun very much.
I saw Ahzhi shaking his head slightly towards Mrs. Xiang.
"Mom, I'm fine, I just feel a little chest tightness."
The Xiang family was considered poor in the village, and Xiang Youfu married the old girl Wang Lan.
There is a large birthmark on Wang Lan's face, which takes up almost one-third of her face, and it is a particularly glaring red-purple color.
That's why I married her without spending much money.
Wang Lan is really efficient when she gets to work.
The second son, Xiang Youlu, married the widow Zhou Xing'er.
This year, Zhou Xing'er got married for three years and gave birth to a daughter. Unexpectedly, her ex-husband was killed by a wild boar that came down the mountain.
There are always troubles around a widow. For the sake of her second half of life, Zhou Xing'er chose to marry into the Xiang family without asking for much dowry. The next year, she gave birth to a daughter, Xiang Qingtai.
The third brother, Xiang Youshou, is quite promising. He runs a small business outside and is now in his twenties and has not yet married. However, he has not brought home a penny.
After Wang Lan got married, she gave birth to Xiang Qingcao and Xiang Ping'an, a son and a daughter, making a good couple.
Zhou Xing'er remarried with her daughter. The daughter was named Zhou Yan. She gave birth to a daughter, Xiang Qingtai, and a son, Xiang Pingkang, for Xiang Youlu.
There are five rooms in the house. On the surface, they are fair to the mother-in-law and the old man, giving each child one room.
In fact, Xiang Yun occupied the best and largest room. There were many people in the first and second bedrooms, so several members of the family squeezed into one room at night.
Mother Xiang said to her daughter with concern, "If you can't do it, go back to your room and rest. Chen Guihua is a lunatic who is always looking for trouble. Don't scare you. Mother will cook some noodles for you later."
"Thank you, mother."
Xiang Qingcao, who was standing next to her, heard what Mrs. Xiang said about the noodles, and a hint of envy flashed in her eyes.
Every household would grow crops and exchange them for coarse grains. Every year, Mrs. Xiang would save some wheat for her daughter to grind into flour, and would secretly prepare a small meal for her daughter from time to time.
Everyone in the family knew that Xiang was partial to the mother-in-law, but no one dared to stop her.
This old lady Xiang is in charge of the cabinet at home, and the cabinet is full of food rations for the family.
If Mrs. Xiang is not given a good life, the whole family will starve.
Another point is that don’t look at the old woman’s age. In fact, she can now easily fight three people at the same time.
Everyone in the village is afraid of the big and strong Xiang Pozi.
Just as Azhi was about to close his eyes and rest, a fierce quarrel was heard outside.
It turned out that the chicken was found, but it had turned into chicken soup.
Ah Zhi knew the plot and the memory of her original body, so she naturally knew that the person who stole the chicken today was none other than Zhou Yan, brought by Zhou Xing'er.
She was greedy and took Xiang Pingkang to steal a chicken. Realizing that it was her daughter who did it, Zhou Xing'er chose to secretly put the leftover chicken in the big room.
Xiang Pozi was sure that it was the eldest wife who stole the chicken, so she chased Wang Lan and beat her.
Chen Guihua was angry that her chicken was eaten, so she rushed up to find the mother-in-law to argue with her.
Because the scene was so chaotic, Chen Guihua accidentally hit Xiang Qingcao, making a hole in his head on the spot.
Seeing the blood on Xiang Qingcao's head, the head of the village immediately asked Chen Guihua and Xiang Pozi to stop fighting.
"grass!"
Wang Lan shouted and rushed forward, and Xiang Pingan beside her also hurried forward.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
He rolled his eyes at the old woman, slapped his thigh and cried.
"Someone's dead. Chen Guihua killed someone. She killed my granddaughter for a chicken. Oh, God, why don't you kill this vicious woman?"
As long as they insist that Chen Guihua harmed Xiang Qingcao, the matter of the chicken can be put to rest. Otherwise, they will have to pay for an old hen afterwards.
Chen Guihua was also frightened. There was a lot of blood flowing onto Qingcao's head, which looked really terrifying.
"I didn't kill anyone. I wasn't paying attention just now. She fell down by herself. What does it have to do with me? If the Xiang family hadn't stolen my chicken, would I have come to their house today?"
The village head looked at Xiang Qingcao lying unconscious on the ground and immediately said to Xiang Pozi, "Will crying and wailing be of any use? The child is already injured. Why don't you quickly get a donkey cart to take the child to see a doctor? If something really happens, it will be too late."
"Yes, yes, mother, please let Qingcao see a doctor."
The money in the family is all in Xiang Po's hands, so Wang Lan naturally has to seek Xiang Po's consent.
Ahzhi opened the window and took a peek outside. When she saw Xiang Qingcao with her eyes closed, she knew that she must be dreaming.
This is what the plot says, Xiang Qingcao will learn cooking in another world while sleeping.
Just as he was hesitating about asking the old woman, Ah Zhi opened the door and exclaimed.
"Mom, what happened to Qingcao? Hurry up and get some money so that my sister-in-law can take her to the hospital. I'll go to the field now to inform Dad and my brother."
Just one sentence made the money-thirsty Xiang Pozi make the decision. She endured the pain and took out ten copper coins.
"Okay, take the kids and borrow a donkey cart to go take a look."
Ten cents is just enough for the consultation fee, but it is definitely not enough if you want the doctor to prescribe medicine.
Wang Lan looked at the ten coins and reminded carefully, "Mom, this amount of money is not enough."
