by 苓菱子Chapter 52: The Fearless - Daily Gossip Life of a Weak and Sickly Sister-in-law in the Compound
As soon as Wang Sanni finished speaking, Mother Li and the others were so shocked they couldn't help but gasp: You really dare to ask for that much!
Sixty-six yuan? If the Jiang family paid that, wouldn’t it mean they’d be out of pocket and short a daughter-in-law?
Mother Jiang's eyes widened at the number, "What? Sixty-six?" Her earlier willingness to negotiate vanished in an instant.
She was so furious she was gasping for breath, about to shout back, when suddenly she felt a gust of wind beside her.
"No, I won't agree!" Jiang Da Sao rushed out of the room.
Wow! Jiang Da Sao is really something else!!!
Lin Qing rubbed her eyes, wondering if she was seeing things!
She blinked several times, confirming that she wasn't mistaken—Jiang Da Sao had indeed rushed out of the room, and she was holding a kitchen knife!!!
It gleamed menacingly!!!
Jiang Da Sao stood in front of Mother Jiang with the kitchen knife, facing off against the people Wang Sanni had brought.
Mother Jiang, who had been fuming just moments ago, was now touched by Jiang Da Sao's bold move. She realized she’d misjudged her daughter-in-law!
In that moment, she conveniently forgot that Jiang Da Sao had only rushed out after hearing about the money for Wang Sanni.
Originally, when Mother Jiang was called out by Mother Li, Jiang Da Sao had been too scared of the burly men outside, thinking they were there for her mother-in-law and Jiang Yang. Seeing that Jiang Yang's family was hiding, she didn't want to go out either. So when Mother Jiang went out, Jiang Da Sao claimed her legs were weak and that going out would hinder Mother Jiang's performance. Mother Jiang, annoyed by her cowardice, dropped the idea of bringing her along.
Jiang Da Sao had been watching the situation from inside. When she heard her mother-in-law was about to shell out money for Jiang Yang again, she couldn’t hold back. Coincidentally, the kitchen was next to Mother Jiang's room, so she grabbed the kitchen knife and rushed out!
Mother Li and the others, who were just watching the drama, were also shocked by this sudden turn of events. They’d never pegged Jiang Da Sao for having such guts!
Wang Sanni was also terrified by Jiang Da Sao, who came out brandishing a knife, "You... you... don't think... just because you have a knife, I... I'm scared of you!"
"If you’ve got the guts, come at me!" Jiang Da Sao trembled as she raised the kitchen knife high. The sunlight glinted off the blade, casting a menacing glare.
Jiang Da Sao raised her voice again, "Come on!"
Mother Li and the others were so scared their hearts nearly jumped out of their chests!
How did it even come to this? What if someone accidentally got hurt?
Mother Li’s face went pale, her heart pounding, terrified Jiang Da Sao might lose her grip and accidentally hurt someone!
But they didn’t dare say a word, afraid of setting Jiang Da Sao off.
Wang Sanni was too terrified by the gleaming knife to say another word!
This was a classic case of the tough backing down from the fearless!
Even the burly men up front couldn’t help but step back, intimidated by the knife. Seeing their reaction, Jiang Da Sao’s eyes lit up, and she stepped forward with the knife, shadowing their every move!
"Come on, didn’t you want money? Didn’t you say you’d wreck our house if you didn’t get it? Bring it on!" Jiang Da Sao shouted, brandishing the knife.
"We... we..."
"If you’ve got the guts, come at me! Let’s see whose skin’s tougher—yours or my knife!"
"Mom!" One of the burly men blocking Wang Sanni felt his legs go weak and quickly called out to her.
Mother Jiang cheered Jiang Da Sao on from behind, no longer furious, her whole demeanor exuding pride and joy. "Oldest daughter-in-law, go get 'em! Teach them a lesson!"
Lin Qing: Tsk tsk, Mother Jiang is back to her old self!
Mother Li was infuriated by Mother Jiang's words, thinking, "Taking action? Are you crazy?"
"Go on! Hurry up, teach them a lesson!" Mother Jiang continued to shout.
Jiang Da Sao, hearing her words, took a couple of steps forward, unsure of what she was thinking.
Wang Sanni and the others were so scared they kept backing away!
Wang Sanni, who had been so arrogant before, was now terrified that the kitchen knife might accidentally come flying her way and couldn't hold on any longer.
"Hmph! You... just wait... we won't let you get away with this!" After making this threat, Wang Sanni quickly fled the courtyard.
The burly men in front of her, seeing Wang Sanni run, quickly followed suit and fled the courtyard.
After these people left, Mother Li finally spoke, trembling, "Jiang Da Sao, now that they're gone, please put down the kitchen knife; it's too dangerous!"
Sui Da Ma and others around Mother Li also urged, "Yes, yes, it's too dangerous; please put down the kitchen knife quickly!"
Lin Qing, watching from her house, saw Jiang Da Sao close her eyes and take a deep breath, unsure of what she was thinking, but she didn't put down the kitchen knife, feeling that the matter might not be over yet!
The next moment seemed to confirm her suspicion, as Jiang Da Sao turned around with the knife and glared fiercely at Mother Jiang.
Mother Jiang was so scared by her gaze that she took two steps back, barely managing to say, "Oldest daughter-in-law, what are you doing?"
Jiang Da Sao knew exactly what she was doing; she felt that since she had already picked up the knife, she might as well go all the way and directly threaten her biased mother-in-law to divide the family property, or at least get the money that belonged to their family.
"Mom, recently the family has spent so much money on the second son; it's so unfair to our family! Either you compensate us for the money spent on the second son, or we divide the family!"
Mother Jiang blew up at the mention of dividing the family.
"Divide the family? I won't allow it! How dare you threaten me?"
Jiang Da Sao's current action was a direct challenge to her authority, and Mother Jiang would never stand for such behavior!
"I don't care; if you don't agree, then I, I..." Jiang Da Sao raised the shiny kitchen knife again, hinting at something serious.
Mother Jiang was so scared her eyebrows jumped.
Now she truly understood the fear that Wang Sanni and the others had felt earlier!
Mother Jiang's face had gone pale with fear.
Mother Li was nearly scared to death by Jiang Da Sao's actions!
"Jiang Da Sao, let's talk this over, discuss it properly; put down the kitchen knife, let's talk properly!" Mother Li said earnestly.
Listening to Mother Li's pleading voice, Lin Qing once again deeply felt how tough it was for her!
What kind of situation is this?
Mother Li is having such a hard time!!!
Mother Li also felt that she was having a really hard time!
At this moment, she felt a surge of resentment towards Mother Jiang. Why can't you just treat everyone equally? Just look at how much your daughter-in-law resents you!
"Mom, have you decided yet?" Jiang Da Sao asked.
As she spoke, she glanced towards Jiang Yang's room. Why? With three and a half rooms in the house, why do they get their own room and half a room for their son, while we have to cram into one room with our two daughters?
Now that Jiang Yang and his wife are holed up in their room and haven't come out, Jiang Da Sao naturally wouldn't pass up this chance to stir up trouble.
She went on, "Mom, look at your precious second son. Now that he sees me in this state, he doesn't even have the guts to come out and defend you! What good is this second son of yours?"
