He took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with anger, but he still suppressed his temper, and spoke with some unwilling compromise in his voice.
"With Youan standing in the way, I can't just ignore the money Zhou Yuhe took away and go collect it.
Ah, forget it.
Just think of it as spending money to buy off his affection for the Zhou family!
Anyway, Zhou Chengguang also wrote a letter of severance in front of our entire family today. So my wife, remember this: from now on, the second wife will be Chu, and our sister-in-law will be Chu!
If anyone with the surname Zhou dares to show up again, I will file a complaint and send them to the county government hall."
Now that her husband had made it so clear, Mrs. Liu was finally able to put her mind at ease.
"Just take care of the beginning and the end, I won't worry about the rest. As for my sister-in-law, she's actually fine. I observed her carefully today and she's just a little slow in reacting, but she should be fine after a little teaching.
After all, it's just a brain injury, not a born idiot. Speaking of this, can you ask Uncle Thirteen to come over and take a look at my sister-in-law?"
"Yes, daughter-in-law, you have to remember this and remind me when the time comes."
Lin Yuanshan nodded.
"But I can't do that tomorrow. We'll be busy as soon as the sun rises tomorrow. We have to process so many prey quickly, otherwise they will stink in such a hot day. We also have to invite the tribesmen to come over for a meal, etc. It's a lot of work."
While mumbling, she took off her clothes and went to bed. Liu reached out and took the clothes her husband had taken off and put them on the bed frame.
"When you mention prey, I think of another problem. How come my sister-in-law is so strong?
I felt it when he ran with me today, but I didn't expect him to be so strong. His small body scared us all when he dragged the blind bear in. My daughter-in-law and Fen'er were so scared that they were shaking all over. "
"Hahaha, let alone you women, even the men in our Lin family are frightened."
Lin Yuanshan laughed for a while as if he didn't take it seriously, and his wife slapped him speechlessly again.
"Am I discussing this with you? I mean, my sister-in-law is so strong that it's a bit abnormal, and she doesn't know how to hide it. How can we explain it to the tribe members in the future?"
"Look, I told you that you always worry about useless things all day long. Do you still need to worry about this kind of thing? Don't you know how to deal with it as the head of the family? I have already solved it!"
The smugness revealed in his words was like "Look how smart you are, come and praise me." This really made Liu curious.
"How did you do it? Tell me about it."
"I really need to let you know about this. Fortunately, my father used to work in Yingzhou Prefecture, which is quite far from my hometown and they can't find out about it, so I have room to play."
"Don't keep me in suspense. Just tell me now!"
"Well, that's what happened..."
As the whole process of cause and effect was explained, the corners of Liu's mouth couldn't help but twitch up and down several times along with the story line her husband had made up.
"You two are really good, you can tell lies easily and make them look convincing. Could this ability to deceive people be an inheritance from your Lin family?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
A liar will never admit that he is a liar.
"How can it be called deception? I am trying to find some reasonable explanations for unreasonable things so that they can convince themselves to accept the unreasonableness. This is called being smooth and worldly. How can things related to human relations and reason be called deception?"
"You're just being stubborn. I'll never get a single word of truth out of you in my life. Fortunately, my two sons are not like you, otherwise I'd be worried to death!"
"So neither of them is smart. Look at Youan. He looks like a child born and raised by my Lin family. How smart is he?"
"hehe."
Liu chuckled twice with a forced smile, and the clever Lin Yuanshan immediately changed his words.
"But that little bastard is nothing either. He will end up in trouble sooner or later if he keeps cheating people. It's better to have someone like our Dalang and Erlang, who are reliable and trustworthy. Don't you think so, wife?"
Even the servile Liu couldn't stand this fence-sitter's behavior of changing his stance according to the wind.
"It's getting late. We have to get up early and work tomorrow. Turn off the lights and go to bed!"
"Okay, that's all! Wife, please lie down inside and leave some space for me. I'll go turn off the lights and come back to fan you."
Liu moved her body to the inside, watched with her eyes open as the tall figure stood up, blew out the oil lamp, then groped her way onto the bed and lay down.
After a while, a cool breeze came from under the swaying palm leaf fan. She closed her eyes in peace.
Early in the morning, Chu Chi was awakened by the noise outside the door.
With a head of messy hair, he yawned and opened the door sleepily. In the yard, the Lin family members were already busy.
"Second Aunt, are you awake?"
Zhang Xuanniang, who was strolling at the door of her own room, felt her second aunt's gaze coming over her, and she quickly and politely greeted her.
"Well, wake up."
The new type of human who felt that he had understood the ways of the world nodded expressionlessly. Zhang Xuanniang was frightened and trembled all over. She quickly laughed and turned around to hide in her room.
When Lin Youan saw his mother get up, he rushed over to tidy up her untidy clothes, muttering to himself.
"Mom, what did I tell you yesterday? You forgot it in the blink of an eye? You must wear clothes properly and comb your hair when you go out. You can't go out like this!"
"Get dressed."
Chu Chi tugged at his sleeves and lapels. His sister-in-law had taught him how to put them on last night, so there was no problem.
"You have to dress neatly before you come out. You are a girl, you can't be so sloppy like me. Go wash up quickly, it's time for breakfast soon."
Have a meal?
Chu Chi, who was about to refute, was immediately speechless. He turned back to wash himself and clumsily used a wooden stick to string his hair together.
Then she happily ran to the yard and stared at the little friend, An An, on the ground. In fact, she had many ways to make the cubs happy, but An An probably wouldn't agree.
Alas, this is the bad thing about being a smart person. You can always guess the other person's mood because of your cleverness, and then put yourself in a difficult position.
Lin Youan didn't care about his mother's dilemma. He just stared at his sister while scrubbing yesterday's dirty clothes in the basin.
He originally wanted to take the clothes to the river to wash, but his aunt disagreed, saying that he was too young and was afraid that he would fall into the river. He just left the clothes there, and his third sister would help wash them later.
But Lin Youan felt that this was not the right way to go. Since he had already decided to support the second branch of the family, he naturally could not rely on his uncle's family for everything.
