Chapter 419: Remarried Widow 12
"If it’s truly a blessing, then Aunt Li, you must ensure that your niece marries into that family. Don’t let that widower marry another woman. Your niece will surely live a blessed life if she marries there."
After Yuan Chun sneered, she stood up and said, "It’s getting late, Aunt Li. I have to go boil water to wash the children’s feet, so I won’t be seeing you out."
Aunt Li turned pale with anger and stormed off.
It was assumed that the matter would end there, but unexpectedly, Aunt Li showed up again a few days later.
With a beaming face, Aunt Li said, "Daqiang’s mother, good news. That family said before that if you marry over, they’re willing to pay one hundred yuan for the bride price. Oh my, even young maiden brides don’t get such a high bride price. Daqiang’s mother, you’ve really landed good luck, encountering such a good family. You mustn’t refuse this time. You know, if you miss this village, there won’t be this shop."
"Oh, then I really do want to refuse," Yuan Chun’s expression was indifferent, "Aunt Li, even if you gave me a thousand yuan as a bride price, I still wouldn’t marry into the Cui family."
"Aunt Li, actually, I’ve long heard about the Cui family’s affairs. After Second Cui’s previous wife married into the Cui family, she suffered greatly at the hands of Granny Cui and the Cui family’s sisters-in-law, and received a lot of beatings and scolding from Second Cui as well. One could say Second Cui’s previous wife was tormented to death by the Cui family. Tell me, how brain-dead would I have to be to agree to enter this pit of fire?"
"Aunt Li, I, Mei Yuan Chun, haven’t dug up your family’s ancestral graves, nor have I dropped your family’s children. Why do you insist on pushing me into this pit of fire with the Cui family?"
"What do you gain if I don’t live well?"
"Or do you think the orphaned and widowed in the Mei family are easy to bully?"
Aunt Li’s face turned awkward, "This... this... Daqiang’s mother, did you misunderstand something? Actually, Second Cui’s previous wife died of illness, and it had nothing to do with the Cui family. Although Granny Cui has a bad temper, she’s quite good to the daughters-in-law."
"She’s good to other daughters-in-law, but to Second Cui’s wives, she treats them like slaves, hitting and scolding them as she pleases, and using them like cattle or horses without even providing a full meal. Anyway, I’ve said enough, I definitely won’t agree to this marriage, so don’t bring it up to me again. My four children are still waiting for me to support them, I’m very busy, so Aunt Li, you’re welcome when you come to visit, but if you come again as a matchmaker, don’t blame me for turning on you."
"I’m the type to make decisions around here. I like to have the final say in my house, and marrying into another wouldn’t give me that kind of treatment, so really, don’t matchmake for me anymore. I don’t want to remarry."
Aunt Li left with a darkened face, chased away by Yuan Chun.
Of course, although Yuan Chun refused this marriage proposal, she wasn’t planning to let go of the Cui family, who were responsible for the deaths of the original owner and her two daughters.
A few nights later, after the children were all asleep, Yuan Chun quietly went out.
This time, Yuan Chun didn’t dare use the Flying Device. She expanded her spiritual power and swiftly headed towards the village where the Cui family was located.
Under her spiritual power’s illumination, the entire night was as bright as day, allowing Yuan Chun to easily find the Cui family and throw a piece of knockout incense into each room.
Half an hour passed, and the Cui family fell into a deep coma.
Yuan Chun sneered, easily pried open Second Cui’s room door, and entered holding a thick iron rod.
A moment later, painful grunts could be heard from inside the room.
Afterward, Yuan Chun went from room to room, and each would echo with the same painful sounds, both male and female, until she finished visiting the last room. Only then did Yuan Chun leave the Cui family with a satisfied heart.
