Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Guan Chibei was carrying a pile of things in his hands. He turned around and faced Auntie Tian, who was among the group of people.
“If my wife marries me, she’s part of the Guan family. I will spend money on her. Our whole family agrees to this. What does Auntie want? Besides, I am the one who earned the money. I can buy as I wish. Auntie Tian, right? Would you be able to keep the money for me?”
The surroundings were silent, and no one spoke.
Everyone looked at Guan Chibei in shock, while Auntie Tian’s face darkened.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Ye Lulu rebutted her, she was so angry that her face turned green. Now, Guan Chibei was mercilessly rebuking her. This couple had beaten Auntie Tian back!
Auntie Tian’s face became as dark as the bottom of a pot. She gritted her teeth and said with a sinister look in her eyes, “Guan Chibei, does your family know that you’re a prodigal son? Your parents are spoiling you, but do your brothers and sisters-in-law really not care?”
Her voice was sharp.
Guan Chibei’s expression became even colder. “All my brothers are working hard in the city to buy white rice for my wife. My sisters-in-law are at home taking care of my wife. What’s wrong?”
“Do you want to ask my family members on my behalf to see if they agree? My wife is the one who gave birth, and my family members are the ones who take care of others. None of them seem to be related to Auntie. Auntie is from the Tian family. If you really like to worry, go back and worry about the Tian family. If my wife’s surname is not Guan, your surname is not Guan either.”
Guan Chibei did not have the thin skin that a young man should have. He was direct and unyielding towards Auntie Tian, not backing down at all.
Auntie Tian widened her eyes in disbelief. Her face was pale and her eyes were terrifying.
Guan Chibei’s expression was calm, and he did not care about anything else. After he was done, he turned around and walked back to the Guan family with his things.
The villagers who heard what he said looked at each other in dismay. No one dared to gossip about Guan Chibei and Ye Lulu anymore.
When Guan Chibei returned to the Guan family after buying so many things, Mother Rong felt both shocked and uneasy. Initially, she really wanted to blame Guan Chibei for being extravagant and spending so much money in one go.
However, news spread very quickly in the village. She immediately knew what Guan Chibei had said to Auntie Tian at the village entrance. Her expression immediately changed. With her hands on her hips, she ran out of the village and shouted,
“Ye Lulu’s our daughter-in-law who gave birth to our children. She’s part of our family. If our family wants to dote on her, we’ll do so. It has nothing to do with anyone else!”

Everyone could tell that Mother Rong was scolding Auntie Tian.
The criticism about the Guan family stopped immediately.
Since the Guan family had already come out to speak, other people should not interfere in their family matters.
That day, the Guan family even brewed a black chicken soup that was even more fragrant than the previous chicken soup. Apart from the strong smell of chicken meat, there was also the smell of herbs. The villagers were sharp-nosed and could tell that the Guan family had brewed a nourishing chicken soup using the herbs that Guan Chibei had bought in the city today. Needless to say, it was for Ye Lulu to nourish her body.
The simmering black chicken soup was like a signal or a form of counterattack. The stronger the fragrance emitted from the Guan family, the more sinister Auntie Tian’s face would become.
Auntie Tian was already filled with hatred when she was forced to fight head-on with Ye Lulu and Guan Chibei twice.
She could not stand the sight of Ye Lulu and felt both jealous of and indignant towards her. Now that she had lost a lot of face because of Ye Lulu, Auntie Tian’s hatred was brewing like poison.
