C21 Exquisite to Look for the Culprit

Trouble came even faster than Shen Jingli thought.

During the evening, Shen Jingli supported Mu Chen as they walked back from the outside. When they passed by the Sister-in-law Chen's house, they heard sounds of fighting coming from inside.

I say, Wang Erya, you can't get rich, you forgot your family brother. I saw it clearly, you are selling tofu in the town for 10 gold coins, I heard that many old ladies from rich families like to eat, and business is good. A woman shouted loudly, "All these years, your big brother has helped you quite a bit. When you returned to your parents' home during the new year, it was with great fortune. How could you not tell us that you had made a fortune?"

The woman scolded a lot, telling them that she wanted the Sister-in-law Chen to tell them how to make tofu as well, so that they could earn some money by selling tofu.

Chen Jian held his little brother and hid in the room with his two younger sisters. The one speaking loudly outside was his aunt, who was very spicy and unkind. She loved to take advantage of others because her mother could not help her and had always treated her very badly.

Seeing how overbearing she was in asking for tofu recipes, he knew that she was not an easy person to get along with. The people who came with her, her eldest uncle and his youngest uncle and their wife, were all here for the tofu recipe. They were so envious that they made a bit of money just to snatch it away.

"Sister-in-law, that tofu recipe isn't mine. I only took some tofu from the Shen next door to sell, to supplement my home." Sister-in-law Chen was a little upset. She really did not think that her mother's sister-in-law would see her selling tofu in town and even come up to ask for a prescription.

Her eldest brother was also a selfish man, with soft ears, and the family was all her sister-in-law's business. Her third brother and third sister, though they were a little better off and thought it was only right that she help them, so she made money and didn't try to get along with them, but she did not expect to let them know.

"What are you saying? The sickly wife in the Mu Family next door was just a pair. She could only do some menial work normally, so how could she produce tofu? "You must have figured out the tofu recipe yourself and refused to tell your family. That's why you said that. You really have no conscience …" Wang Family's Wife cried out in grief, her voice was even more unpleasant than the sound of a pig being butchered, "Wang Erya, why do you have no conscience? Back then, your boss was captured to be a soldier, you brought three children with you, you were so poor that you couldn't even eat bran. If your brother didn't send you half a bag of coarse grain and dozens of kilograms of sweet potatoes, your family of four would have already starved to death … "How can you be so heartless …"

His family was outsiders, and he had fled here with his parents. His father was a hunter with some skills, and after coming here, he had bought a house and set up a field, and his family only had one son. His life was not bad, and at the age of sixteen, his parents had married him.

Although he had two daughters later on, his days were pretty good too. However, when the third daughter had just turned one, the imperial government sent out a message that every family with two men who were between sixteen and fifty years old had to hire one, so they couldn't be bought with money, so he had no choice but to abandon his family and join the army.

However, he didn't expect that the moment he left, those Wang Clan people would come knocking and rob him of his family's savings, and even caused his parents to die.

If not for the fact that her family lived far away from the village, there would have been people who would come to make a fool of her. Her eldest brother, on the other hand, would not pull this sister-in-law aside and only add fuel to the fire.

Sister-in-law Chen looked at his family brother coldly, his heart feeling cold. Chen Da had long since stopped listening to him, she took out the curved blade she brought back from the battlefield from under the bed and rushed out, dragging his weak leg, and smashed it onto the table. He did not say anything, but only swept her cold gaze across Madam Wang.

Her gaze was as if she was looking at a dead man. Wang Family's sister-in-law was frightened and laid paralyzed on the ground. Chen Da had killed people on the battlefield. Thinking of this, she felt a cold chill on the back of her neck.

Sister-in-law Chen was also shocked. Ever since Chen Da crippled his leg, he had become very irritable. He drank and beat people up.

"F * ck off."

After being shouted at by Chen Da, the two brothers of the Wang Clan no longer dared to think of taking advantage of the Chen Clan.

"The Wall is guilty." Mu Chen looked at the few people who were running for their lives and did not dare to turn their heads back, and only said this sentence.

Shen Jingli laughed awkwardly, thinking that he had to sell the tofu recipe as soon as possible, if not, it would become more and more troublesome.
