A'Lan immediately rolled her eyes and walked to Sun-shi with a wronged expression.

"Aunt, look at my new dress, it's been soiled by this little bitch. Look at my skirt, where else can I wear this? If I can't wear it beautifully, then who would give it to me as a gift? How can I honor my aunt in the future?"

After speaking, A'Lan began to sob twice.

As soon as she heard this, Sun-shi had to take care of this. She immediately glanced at A'Lan's skirt and then at the pig grass scattered on the ground. She suddenly ran towards Wang-shi and Xiaoya with a fierce look on her face.

She screamed and cursed: "You damn bitches, it seems that this Old Lady hadn't taught you enough? You dare do this kind of thing, see if this Old Lady doesn't peel your skin off today!"

With that said, Sun-shi immediately slapped Wang-shi and hurriedly pinched her body several times and Xiaoya's body as well. Their bodies were suddenly pinched red and purple by Sun-shi.

Even those who were passing by couldn't help but sigh at this scene.

"Look, Old Matriarch Lin is beating her Daughter-in-Law and granddaughter again, truly evil!"

"Ai, Old Matriarch Lin just doesn't know how to treat her Daughter-in-Law nicely. At any rate, this Daughter-in-Law was raised by her parents but was abused like this."

"..."

Sun-shi didn't care about what the villagers thought of her. She only felt that it was gratifying teaching them a lesson and counts as she was just having fun.

Sun-shi was panting heavily from the fight. She stopped and put her hands on her waist as she stared at the two of them.

"I think that it must be all your bad luck that caused our Lin Family to be like this. Since you came, when has this courtyard been peaceful?"

Hearing that, A'Lan suddenly rolled her eyes and immediately smiled as she walked in front of Sun-shi.

"Aiyo, Aunt, it's been really hard on you. I knew Aunt dotes on A'Lan, but please take a quick rest, how can these damn bitches be worthy of your anger?"

With that, A'Lan went close to Sun-shi and whispered in her ear.

"Aunt, this bitch is so unlucky that I can't stand to watch any longer. Don't tell me you still want her to harm you again in the future?"

Hearing her, Sun-shi looked at A'Lan in doubt.

She only saw A'Lan giving her a wink and then looked at Xiaoya. Sun-shi immediately understood.

"I'll let you off today. What are you still doing in a daze for? Hurry up and cook. What will the people in this family eat when they come back home?"

After she spoke, Sun-shi gave Wang-shi another kick and left after glaring at them.

Xiaoya poked her head out and looked at Wang-shi.

"Mother, are you alright?"

Seeing the bruises on Wang-shi's face, Xiaoya secretly tightened her grip.

She could only blame herself for being too weak and not capable. Otherwise, she definitely wouldn't have allow anyone to bully her mother.

She only heard Wang-shi say, "Mother is fine."

Saying so, Wang-shi rubbed Xiaoya's head in distress.

"Xiaoya, do you hate your mother?"

Xiaoya immediately shook her head, "If Mother wanted to ask me who I hate, it should be that old woman!"

Wang-shi quickly reached out her hand to cover Xiaoya's mouth as soon as she heard her words.

"Xiaoya, she's your grandma after all. You can't be so uncultured. If others were to hear you, your reputation will be ruined in the future."

Suddenly, Xiaoya fiercely glanced at Sun-shi's house.

"What's the use of my reputation? She doesn't even regard our lives."

When Wang-shi looked at Xiaoya's appearance, then at the wound on her face, she immediately felt her heart ache.

This injury would leave behind scars. If there was something on her face, who would dare ask for her hand in marriage in the future? Wasn't it because there was a birthmark on Xiaoye's face that no one dared to ask her hand in marriage?

Thinking of this, Wang-shi began to cry again.

At this time, Lin Xiaoshan was the first to return. Seeing Wang-shi and Xiaoya covered with injuries, he was shocked.

"What's going on with you two?"

Wang-shi's face was still covered with tears as she helplessly looked at him before pulling Xiaoya back into the house.

At this time, even if Lin Xiaoshan was stupid, he knew what was going on. Only that, he didn't have any reaction and could only sigh helplessly.

When Lin Xiaoye returned home, Huo Li had already cleared that plot of land.

Lin Xiaoye went back to take a look and couldn't help but exclaim, "Isn't your speed a bit too fast?"

He was almost as fast as an ox.

However, Lin Xiaoye didn't dare to say that out loud.

Huo Li put down his hoe and said, "The ground is a bit dry."

If it hadn't been for this, he would have plowed the land long ago and he wouldn't have waited till now.

Lin Xiaoye nodded: "It's fine, just add some water into it. Right, I'm thinking of bringing back two pigs in two days time. When the time comes, you can set up a cage and we will raise some pigs and chickens, so that we won't need to go out and buy them next year."

They can also eat eggs every day.

After all, Lin Xiaoye knew that no matter what era it was, it would be hard to earn money. Furthermore, she would have to spend it quickly, and since she still had to live in the village for a long time, then she had to arrange some follow-up work.

Moreover, if she had enough money, she could buy a shop in the town to do business. Then she could sell the pigs and chickens or eat them during New Year.

Huo Li looked deeply at her.

She knew how to live their life now.

However, his eyes immediately darkened, "Raising pigs is not easy."

He had to wake up early in the morning to get his hands on the pig grass. Moreover, it's winter now, and the pig grass in the mountain was about to wilt.

What's more, even though Lin Xiaoye was a bit hardworking now, there's no guarantee that she would be able to get up early in the morning and walk in the dark to cut pig grass.

Lin Xiaoye thought for a moment: "You're right, then let this matter go for now."

However, even if Lin Xiaoye had said this, she would still definitely keep thinking about it.

Afterwards, Lin Xiaoye and Huo Li also busied themselves with watering the land for a while, but this was still not enough. They still had to fertilize the land. The village's special manure pond was just to prevent everyone from pouring those things everywhere, so the village head had someone specially build it, which would also make it easier for everyone to fertilize their lands in the future.

Huo Li brought Lin Xiaoye to the manure pond. From far away, Lin Xiaoye could smell the stench. This stench was even worse than the stench on her body and it almost made her puke.

For some reason, a hint of a smile actually appeared on Huo Li's lips when he looked at Lin Xiaoye.

They stood by the manure pond and looked around, but Lin Xiaoye really couldn't take it anymore.

"Brother Huo, I'll trouble you on this matter. I really can't take it anymore, I'll go get some fresh air first."

After speaking, Lin Xiaoye quickly ran off.

The smile on Huo Li's face couldn't help but deepen a bit when he saw Lin Xiaoye running away like a rabbit. However, at this moment, he didn't realize that Lin Xiaoye was already in his heart, and unknowingly, his views on her had changed.
