Chapter 25: Li Dahai’s problem needs to be solved 

The old woman heard the sound and opened her eyes to see Ji Xiaoyue holding a knife and smiling sinisterly at her.

She screamed in fright.

“Gensheng, Guihua, Ji Xiaoyue is going to kill someone, come quickly!” After she was beaten by Aunt Wang for her affair last time, her legs were still not well.

She looked at Ji Xiaoyue holding the knife, she didn’t dare to move, she could only shout.

Ji Xiaoyue walked slowly towards Sun Laotai with the cleaver, holding the knife high, “Grandma, you’re awake, I’m just sharpening the knife. You go back to sleep.”

Sun Laotai wanted to shout again, Ji Xiaoyue made a shushing gesture at her, holding the knife high.

The old woman trembled with fear and shrank under the covers, not daring to move.

Anyone would be afraid to see someone holding a cleaver at them in the middle of the night.

She had never been kind to Ji Xiaoyue, she was even worse to her than to Sun Dahua. Now, seeing Ji Xiaoyue’s sinister look, how could she not be afraid? She was afraid that she would raise the knife and chop her to pieces.

“Grandma, I don’t like noise, don’t make noise, I’ll come to you when I’m done sharpening the knife.” Ji Xiaoyue smiled, holding the cleaver.

That night, Ji Xiaoyue sat in front of the old woman’s bed all night with the cleaver.

As long as the old woman opened her eyes, she could see Ji Xiaoyue holding the knife in front of her bed, the moonlight shining on her face, and she was still smiling faintly.

The next day, she started making a fuss.

“Ji Xiaoyue sharpened the knife all night, what did she want to do? Did she want to chop me to death?” It was daytime and there were many people around, so the old woman dared to make a fuss.

Today, Ji Xiaoyue left Wang Guihua at home, and she and her cousin pushed the cart to deliver goods.

Wang Guihua heard the old woman’s words and didn’t bother to pay attention, she turned around and started sharpening the knife too.

She was domineering, but her legs were not convenient now. Looking at the way Sun Gensheng’s family was, she was scared, she always felt that they were sharpening their knives to chop her to death.

She took advantage of Wang Guihua’s absence and went back to tell her youngest son with a cane, “Erqiang, I can’t stay at Sun Gensheng’s house anymore, they’re going to kill me.”

Su Erqiang had just experienced Liu widow’s crying and his wife’s cursing, and when he heard his mother’s words, he said impatiently, “It’s a society ruled by law now, murder is illegal. They wouldn’t dare.”

The old woman looked at her youngest son and hesitated, “Ji Xiaoyue stood in front of my bed with a knife all night, Erqiang, I’m scared.”

Sun Erqiang didn’t pay any attention to the old woman, and sent her back to Ji Xiaoyue’s place.

That night, the old woman cried and made a fuss, wanting to sleep with Sun Dahua.

So, she heard the sound of sharpening the knife again, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Ji Xiaoyue standing sinisterly by the window. She wanted to call Sun Dahua, but Ji Xiaoyue stuffed her mouth and tied her hands.

She directly took the whetstone to the old woman’s bedside and sharpened it over and over again.

The old woman was so scared that she cried and struggled, and then fainted from fright.

The next day, she woke up and screamed that Ji Xiaoyue was going to kill her.

Ji Xiaoyue greeted her with a gentle smile, “Grandma, you must have been dreaming, why would I kill you?”

The old woman looked down at the bruises on her hands from being tied up, and she looked at Ji Xiaoyue in terror.

Ji Xiaoyue was still sharpening the knife.

She couldn’t care less, she cried and ran away.

Ji Xiaoyue looked at Sun Laotai’s back, threw away the cleaver and clapped her hands, “Okay, she won’t dare to come back again.”

Wang Guihua looked at the old woman’s fleeing back and laughed, holding her stomach.

“Xiaoyue, how did you think of that?” Wang Guihua asked Ji Xiaoyue.

Ji Xiaoyue grinned, “When I sleep, if I open my eyes and see someone holding a cleaver at my bed, I’d be scared too. Besides, she’s never been kind to us, she knows best how she treated us all these years, she’s guilty.”

Wang Guihua was still worried, “Sun Erqiang will definitely send her back. I think it was Sun Erqiang who instigated it.”

Ji Xiaoyue smiled, “I’m going to deal with Sun Erqiang now.”

She said, and turned to go to Liu widow’s house.

Liu widow saw Ji Xiaoyue coming with pig head meat again, and she asked happily, “Ji Xiaoyue, do you have a way to make Sun Erqiang marry me? Sun Erqiang’s wife is very fierce, she took a knife at me when I went there.”

Ji Xiaoyue looked at her and said, “Fierceness can’t compare to fearlessness. Just take a rope and say you’re going to hang yourself at their door. Call the village officials before you go. Make a big scene, it’s best to get Sun Erqiang’s wife’s family involved. As long as Sun Erqiang’s wife leaves, you move in. Whose son isn’t a son? Your three sons calling him Dad isn’t enough.

If they try to drive you away, you say you’re going to hang yourself at their house, you’re going to die.”

Liu widow heard this and said with some doubt, “Will it really work?”

Ji Xiaoyue patted her, “Auntie Liu, as long as you dare to make a scene, there’s nothing to be afraid of. Think about it, is face more important or are your three sons more important?”

Liu widow was swayed again.

Not long after Ji Xiaoyue went back, she heard people outside shouting for them to go watch the show, saying that the Sun family was making a fuss again.

This time, Ji Xiaoyue and Wang Guihua didn’t go.

Wang Guihua wanted to go, but Ji Xiaoyue pulled her back, “Auntie, there’s nothing to see. This show isn’t interesting, it’s going to be life or death, it’s probably going to be worse than before.”

Sure enough, ten minutes later, Aunt Cui came over to tell Wang Guihua, “Guihua, your second brother-in-law’s family came, they’re fighting.

They beat Liu widow until she had a miscarriage, and the police came too, this is going to be a big deal, everyone is…”

“They took her away.”

Ji Xiaoyue smiled and said to Aunt Cui, “The top is crooked, and the bottom is crooked. Liu widow lost her child, my second uncle probably won’t be able to get rid of her.”

Aunt Cui nodded, “That’s right, that Liu widow is very capable, once she sticks to someone, she’s like a dog-skin plaster.”

She said to Ji Xiaoyue and Wang Guihua, “Now, they have to deal with their own affairs, they shouldn’t come to bother you for a long time.”

Ji Xiaoyue and Wang Guihua looked at each other and smiled.

After Aunt Cui left, Wang Guihua and Ji Xiaoyue continued to work.

They had just started working when a group of people came to their house.

Ji Xiaoyue looked at their clothes and guessed what it was.

It must be that Li Dahai’s unit had figured out the situation.

Ji Xiaoyue turned to Wang Guihua and said, “Auntie, go call your uncle and cousin back, Li Dahai’s unit is here. Your cousin’s matter is going to be resolved.”

Wang Guihua was stunned and looked at the group of people at the door, then she turned around and went to call her husband.

Ji Xiaoyue greeted them and saw a familiar face.

Fu Liye.

The group of people were all wearing military uniforms. When they saw Ji Xiaoyue, they politely asked, “Hello, is this Sun Dahua’s house? Does she live here?”

Ji Xiaoyue nodded, “Sun Dahua is my cousin, she lives here, I’ve already asked my aunt to call my uncle and cousin back.

Please come in, I’ll get you some water.”
