A poor peasant girl: Farming with a baby and abusing her husband

After Yan Shu and her daughter had a hearty meal, they went to bed to catch up on their sleep. It was already evening when they got up.

Warm sunshine streamed in from the window, and Yan Shu decided to go for a walk and get some side dishes to take home.

Yaya's eyes were bleary, and she immediately became interested when she heard her mother say she was going out, so she happily got up and put on her shoes. There were some stains on her little face, but it didn't affect her innocence at all.

"Mother, where are we going to go soon? Are we going to the mountains again? I hope mother can catch more pheasants this time!"

Yan Shu smiled and said, "You little glutton, my mother will never let you go hungry again. Let's go grab something else this time for a change."

After saying that, he took Yaya and went out carrying a crappy backpack.

This time Yan Shu took Yaya to the west of the village. In her memory, there was a small stream in the village, about two miles southwest of where she lives now.

When she came to the stream, Yan Shu rolled up her sleeves, washed her face, and straightened her messy hair.

Looking carefully at myself in the water, I saw a thin oval face, round almond eyes, two rows of willow eyebrows, no blood on the cheeks, but round and plump lips. The whole person is similar to the modern self, but different.

She asked Yaya to squat down and wash Yaya's face and neck.

But both she and Yaya had a pair of rotten straw sandals on their feet, with mud stains all over their toes, so they had no choice but to take off their shoes and wash them in shallow water.

Stepping on a flat stone, Yan Shu suddenly had an idea.

This season is the season when crabs and fish are plump. It is not difficult for her to catch some small crabs and fish.

Just do it. Yan Shu asked Yaya to sit on the grass by the stream and wait for her. Then she pulled a handful of flower tassels from the Polygonatum japonicus tree on the bank and threw them into the backpack. She quickly rolled up her trouser legs and sleeves and took the backpack to Walking among the rocks in the stream.

When Yaya saw that her mother wanted to go into the water to catch fish, she was so happy that she danced with joy: "Mom, come on! Let's eat big fish tonight!"

At this moment, Yan Shu felt particularly confident and happy because she could fulfill her child's wishes.

Yan Shu fixed the opening of the basket on the gap in the pile of rocks, muttered a few words silently in her mind, stepped into the puddle surrounded by rocks, and stomped her feet.

After a while, the puddle turned into a pool of yellow muddy water, and now everyone is reaping the benefits.

Taking advantage of this time, Yan Shu moved several large rocks away from the shoal and caught several large crabs alive. She released all the small crabs, and Yan Shu neatly tied the rest into a string with silk thatch and threw them directly to Yaya.

At first Yaya screamed in fear, but then she couldn't bear the food her mother had worked so hard to catch escape. With Yan Shu's encouragement, she cautiously grabbed the thatch rope.

Big crabs danced in front of Yaya with their teeth and claws open. Yaya, who overcame her fear, burst into laughter.

About a quarter of an hour later, Yan Shu turned around and went to collect the net in the puddle. When I lifted up the basket on my back and took a look, I saw half a basket full of white fish and half a big fish bouncing happily.

After getting ashore and packing up, Yan Shu and her daughter walked toward the village in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Yan Shu walked calmly towards the west entrance of the village. At the Chen's grain and oil workshop at the entrance of the village, she exchanged several large fish for a bamboo tube of sesame oil and a pound of rice.

The owner of the workshop is Cuizhi, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Chen family. She is a good fish. He admired Yan Shu for catching so many fish, and then lamented that Yan Shu had a hard life, being kicked out of her husband's family at such a young age with a child in tow.

She comforted Yan Shu and said, "Sister Wen, if you need food and oil in the future, just come and get it directly. I'll give it to you when you have money. It's not easy to raise a child, and there's only so much the neighbors can do to help!"

Yan Shu politely thanked her and said she would come tomorrow to return the bamboo tube for oiling.

On the way, she passed several houses in the village and occasionally met a few uncles and aunts from the village. Yan Shu signaled to Yaya and called her sweetly.

When passing by the gate of Li's house, Yan Shu didn't want to look any further and planned to walk directly over. This place bears the suffering of the original owner, and she doesn't want to be bullied by them again like before.

Of course, she would also let them know that without their Li family, she, Wen Yanshu, could still live a good life, even better than them!

"Oh, who did I think she was? It turns out to be my sister-in-law. She's still carrying sesame oil. I wonder which wild man bought it for you! Auntie, come and see, your eldest daughter-in-law has someone to help her now. Now, don’t worry about it."

Before she finished speaking, her mother-in-law Li Zhang and her second son Li Jialin were both standing at the door.

Yan Shu had no intention of paying attention to these people and pulled Yaya straight to the east.

Mother-in-law Zhang did not miss this opportunity to teach her daughter-in-law a lesson. Although Yan Shu was driven out of the house mercilessly by her, she would not give up if she could find any way to humiliate her Li family!

"What happened to the oil on your hands? Who gave it to you? Tell me quickly!" Zhang's arrogant attitude made Yan Shu nauseated.

Yan Shu directly retorted: "Since I have been kicked out by you, I am not a member of the Li family. You have no right to ask me to answer any questions. And don't keep your mouth shut. You are a wild man. Without evidence, it is slander. You are responsible for it." The Li family is in darkness!"

At this time, the surrounding neighbors also gathered around. Aunt Zhou next to her shouted on behalf of Yan Shu: "It's okay if I don't need you to take care of my orphans and widowed mothers. After all, I have left a baby for the Chen family, so why be so aggressive."

As usual, the men didn't talk to each other and just watched the fun. The second daughter-in-law, Ye Shi, exclaimed again: "Oh, look, there are fish and crabs in her basket on her back. How could she, a woman, catch the fish? It must have been given to her by a wild man!"

The crowd began to whisper: "How long has a woman like her ever caught fish?"

"She has been a widow in the Li family for so many years, so she must have become restless."

Yan Shu glanced at the young daughter-in-law in the village who was basically about the same age as her and spoke ill of her. I thought to myself: "Really, the place where there are women is the Jianghu. Why should women embarrass women?"

But this time Yan Shu decided to give them a counterattack, otherwise she would really think that orphans and widowed mothers were easy to bully.

"Ye Guihua, which of your eyes saw me stealing a man? If you don't have real evidence, please shut your mouth. If you treat me as a sister-in-law, you should know how to grow up and be orderly, and be polite and respect me as a sister-in-law. If If you don’t regard me as a member of the Li family, you shouldn’t meddle in other people’s business and gossip like a tongue-tied woman!”

Ms. Ye was speechless and furious. She pinched her husband Li Jialin's arm and cursed: "You are useless. You only watch others bullying your wife. You are a dead person."

Li Jialin screamed in pain: "Why are you pinching me? I didn't mess with you."

Li Jialin is usually a boring gourd. Although he has never bullied Yan Shu on his own initiative, he is really a loser if he acquiesces and condones the whole family to bully his sister-in-law.

When her mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, saw that Yan Shu dared to openly retaliate against them, she said bluntly: "It's so treasonous! You've rebelled against me. You woman won't do anything good unless you teach her a lesson."

After saying that, he rushed over to grab Yan Shu's hair. Now Yan Shu is no longer the submissive and weak woman she used to be. After all, she has also practiced Taekwondo in modern times.

In the face of such emergencies, the speed of defense and evasion can still keep up.

She picked up Yaya with one hand, turned around and backed away, and Zhang stumbled to the ground, grinning in pain and screaming.

Li Jialin hurriedly went to help his mother and shouted: "Sister-in-law, you are going too far. You dare to hit your mother. If my brother knows how you treat your mother, he will never let you go!"

Ye ran over and grabbed Yan Shu's backpack and pulled it down, shouting, "I told you to eat fish. If you still have the nerve to eat a wild man's fish, I'll make you eat your shit!"

Yan Shu's hands were full, and Yaya also started to cry loudly.

She suddenly became upset and raised her foot to hook Ye's calf.

With a "bang", Ms. Ye fell to the ground and screamed: "Wen Yanshu, you damn bitch, if you dare to hit me now, I will fight to the death for you."

The folks around me don’t know who I am helping with every word I say.

Yan Shu took the opportunity to pretend to be innocent and said: "Folks, as you can see, our orphans and widows didn't want to provoke anyone, let alone hit anyone on their own initiative. It was purely self-defense."

"The fish in this basket were caught by me when I went down to the river. There are still scratches on my feet from stones. You can take a look. I bought the sesame oil from Chenjia Oil Shop in exchange for fish at the entrance of the village. If you don't believe me, you can ask."

"We, the two of us, do not steal or rob, we just want to live a good life."

Everyone nodded and said that it was not easy for the two of them. From the perspective of public opinion, Yan Shu won this game and made a good turnaround. There is basically no problem in taking her time to gain a foothold here in the future.

Mr. Ye and Mr. Zhang wanted to come and fight, but they were stopped by Li Jialin and the surrounding neighbors!

Yan Shu and her daughter slowly walked away in the eyes of everyone, leaving only the Li family still cursing at the door.
