Chapter 32: The White Moonlight(Bai Yueguang

) Moves In!

Yu Miaomiao felt not gratitude, but… terror!

Yu Miaomiao, as a substitute, knew very well how much Mu Jingyun loved Shen Mingzhu.

Six months ago, Shen Mingzhu left without a word.

Mu Jingyun went to the village entrance every day to wait, almost becoming a statue of a wife-waiting husband.

But Shen Mingzhu never returned, and there was no news.

In his sadness and despair, he saw her and immediately started discussing marriage.

He spared no expense, paying a high betrothal gift of 188 to marry her, who looked like Shen Mingzhu.

Now that the real person has returned, it’s normal for him to say angry words. But deliberately acting to provoke the real person is a bit too much.

Isn’t he… on the verge of madness?

Yu Miaomiao’s heart pounded, feeling his hands… burning hot!

“Then, go cut the pork belly! It’s hot today, we need to process it. Otherwise, the pork belly will spoil,” Yu Miaomiao spoke softly, afraid that Mu Jingyun would suddenly go crazy.

“Okay.”

Mu Jingyun got up and went into the kitchen, without even looking at Shen Mingzhu.

Shen Mingzhu pressed her chest, her heart breaking.

Once, her second brother had been so considerate to her, but now he was treating Yu Miaomiao this way?

How could this be?

Su Tang was also shocked by Mu Jingyun’s bizarre actions and hurried to comfort Yu Miaomiao.

The two sisters held hands, everything unspoken.

If Mu Jingyun went crazy and turned black on the spot, they would run! They wouldn’t take any money or anything, saving their lives was the most important thing.

Mu Jingzhou squatted in the yard, skillfully cleaning the pig pancreas.

For a moment, no one paid attention to Shen Mingzhu.

She stood alone under the eaves, heartbroken.

Yu Miaomiao and Su Tang leaned against the wall, listening intently to the sound of Mu Jingyun cutting the pork belly in the kitchen.

Swish, swish, swish—the knife was sharp, the force was strong.

Was that pile of pork belly enough to vent his anger?

Under the bright sunshine, the two sisters felt time crawl by.

Finally, Mu Jingyun called out, “Wife, it’s all cut.”

“I’ll render the oil,” Yu Miaomiao snapped back to reality, “Third Sister-in-law, you tend the fire.”

“Okay.”

Su Tang was about to enter the kitchen when Mu Jingzhou asked, “Aren’t you making shells?”

Su Tang chuckled dryly, “I’ll do it later, no rush.”

Mu Jingyun had become a time bomb, so what kind of soap was she making?

“I’m free now, I’ll tend the fire,” Mu Jingzhou entered the kitchen carrying the pig pancreas after removing the membrane.

Su Tang and Yu Miaomiao looked at each other.

Should they ignore her?

“If the situation is bad, we’ll run. If it’s stable, we won’t panic. But we can’t let her see the soap-making process,” Yu Miaomiao whispered.

They still suspected that the Shen Mingzhu in the drama might be stealing Su Tang’s luck, so they had to hide their money-making methods.

Thus, only three women remained in the courtyard.

Shen Mingzhu’s shiny little leather shoes were somehow covered in dust, looking drab.

With Mu Jingyun and Mu Jingzhou gone, she didn’t cry anymore. She walked over and called, “Second Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law.”

“Mm-hmm.”

“Hehe.”

The two responded with perfunctory smiles.

“You must treat my second and third brothers well, they are good people,” Shen Mingzhu pleaded earnestly.

Su Tang twitched her eyes, “Of course, the third brother is my husband, if I don’t treat him well, who will?”

Yu Miaomiao said calmly, “Whoever’s husband, whoever cherishes him, Miss Shen doesn’t need to worry about it.”

The two men in the house rendering oil exchanged smiles.

Shen Mingzhu hit a snag right away, sighing unwillingly, “Chahe Village is a good place, I didn’t want to go back to the city at that time. It was only because my parents forced me with their lives that I had to return to the provincial city. If I had another choice, I would definitely not go back.”

“Miss Shen, you don’t even care about your parents’ lives just for your own enjoyment?” Su Tang feigned ignorance.

Shen Mingzhu:………

“Miss Shen, you are a highly educated person from the provincial city. You should understand the importance of filial piety. You can’t be unfilial to your parents just because Chahe Village has beautiful scenery and good air. Right?” Su Tang said slowly, with a touch of earnest concern.

Shen Mingzhu was speechless again.

Didn’t they know anything? Didn’t the gossip aunties in Chahe Village say anything?

“Miss Shen, is Teacher Qin your teacher?” Yu Miaomiao asked.

“Yes. She was my college teacher,” Shen Mingzhu proudly raised her chin.

A college student! Let these two illiterates who didn’t even finish junior high school envy her!

“Why did Teacher Qin come to a small county town to open a shop?” Yu Miaomiao was quite curious.

Shen Mingzhu wasn’t stupid, she immediately realized that they were trying to get information, and said, “This is Teacher Qin’s personal secret, I can’t tell you.”

Yu Miaomiao thought to herself: Even if the female lead is a green tea, she’s still smart!

The aroma of lard wafted from the kitchen, and Old Lady Gao next door climbed onto the wall again to smell the fragrance.

“Oh, why are you rendering lard again? Are you making soap again?” Old Lady Gao asked.

Su Tang had a black line on her forehead.

Damn it, the secret’s out!

Shen Mingzhu was startled and immediately asked, “Second Sister-in-law, are you making soap? With lard?”

“We’re just trying it out,” Yu Miaomiao said indifferently.

“Where did you learn the technique?” Shen Mingzhu stared at them.

They could design clothes and make soap, were they still country bumpkins?

After living in the countryside as an educated youth for two years, she had never heard of any village girls who could do these things!

“We heard someone in the county town say that lard can be used to make soap, so we’re trying it out.”

“Have you succeeded?”

“No.”

Old Lady Gao leaned on the wall and laughed, “They wasted a big pot of lard yesterday, almost driving Old Lady Mu crazy. They’re doing it again today, it’s hilarious. If they waste another pot of lard, Old Lady Mu will have to go to the hospital.”

Su Tang and Yu Miaomiao cooperated, their faces flushed, and they awkwardly pursed their lips without speaking.

Whatever Old Lady Gao said was what happened.

Shen Mingzhu was initially quite shocked, but now she was only angry.

You don’t have the ability to do it, yet you waste so much lard, what a waste!

Lard is so precious these days! Not to mention the countryside, even in the city, they don’t waste it like this!

“Second Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law, if you don’t like to work, that’s fine, but you can’t waste your second and third brothers’ hard-earned money like this.”

“They work hard in the fields, you should learn to be frugal and manage the household.”

“But I still suggest you go and earn work points, more money will make life better in the future.”

“……”

Shen Mingzhu spoke righteously.

But who gave her the right to lecture them?

She was an outsider, what was she?

Su Tang whispered to Yu Miaomiao, “Should we try to test their attitude?”

“Okay. You go ahead.”

Mu Jingyun’s attitude was unpredictable, like a knife hanging over Yu Miaomiao’s head, about to fall but not falling, it was too torturous.

Why not just give it a try!

“Miss Shen, from what position are you lecturing us?” Su Tang asked sweetly.

Shen Mingzhu was stunned, as if she didn’t expect Su Tang to refute her.

“Miss Shen, you are a guest, I shouldn’t say this to you. But your lecturing tone is even more arrogant than my mother-in-law, it’s really excessive.”

“We are about the same age, and besides, we are your sisters-in-law. You are too disrespectful.”

“Or is it because Teacher Qin was rude to you in the county town today, so you are unhappy with us?”

“……”

Su Tang’s mouth kept moving, delivering a soft but firm speech.

Old Lady Gao had never argued with Su Tang before, now she was excitedly watching the show, hoping Shen Mingzhu would win.

Even better, let them fight!
