4 003: Aunt Ashu_1
Translator: 549690339
The noise outside was quite loud.
Ni Yang walked to the window, took a glance outside, and a chilling curve from her lips to her mouth.
Just like ice in the twelfth lunar month, it makes people shiver without being cold!
She would recognize the person outside even if they turned to ashes.
It was Li Shu!
Mu Jinbao’s mistress, and also the one who cunningly planned to marry her off to an old bachelor.
In her memories from the past life, Li Shu indeed had a son.
This son, nearly worshipped by Lady Mu and Mu Jinbao, was named Mu Yaozu.
But how could someone like Li Shu produce something good?
Mu Yaozu was extremely vile!
At five years old, he caused Ni Cuihua to miscarry, and at sixteen, he was sent to prison for rape!
He was simply a social cancer!
Li Shu lifted a very false smile on her face, “Sister Cuihua, hello, I am Li Shu, just call me Ashu, I will rely on you in the future.”
If Li Shu really were Lady Mu’s niece, she should address Ni Cuihua as sister-in-law according to seniority.
But she didn’t.
She was provoking Ni Cuihua, after all, who was carrying the seed of Mu Jinbao in her belly!
Ni Cuihua was just a hen that can’t lay son eggs!
Such a person, only good to be her workhorse.
Li Shu’s facial expression wasn’t pretty, but the honest and down-to-earth Ni Cuihua didn’t notice her abnormality, nor what was wrong with her words.
Ni Cuihua smiled and said, “Sure, as long as you don’t mind our poor living conditions.”
What a fool!
No wonder she can’t bear a son.
Li Shu looked at Ni Cuihua with a gaze full of derision.
Lady Mu turned to Ni Cuihua and said, “You have to arrange a place for Ashu to stay right now! Ashu is pregnant, you can’t treat her badly!”
Lady Mu ordered around Ni Cuihua just like a servant.
In fact, in Lady Mu’s eyes, Ni Cuihua was even lower than a servant, she was an animal, an animal that anyone could bully at will.
Ni Yang stood by the window, watching what was happening in the courtyard with cold eyes, a pale smile hooking at her bright red lips.
Ni Cuihua then says, “Then let Ashu and Yangyang sleep in the same room. Yangyang’s bed is big enough, and Ashu is pregnant, so she can have someone to help her at night.”
Ni Cuihua is just too kind, always thinking of others, but unfortunately, she was dealing with monsters.
She would not get a good end.
Hearing this, Lady Mu almost jumped in anger, shouting, “You bitch! I knew you were up to no good, are you wishing something bad to happen to Ashu? To actually let Ashu sleep with that piece of trash!”
If Li Shu and Ni Yang, that piece of trash slept together, what if Li Shu also gave birth to good-for-nothing?
Lady Mu didn’t want to take such a risk!
She couldn’t risk it!
Ni Cuihua went pale with fright, “Mother, we don’t have any other rooms…”
Although the Mu’s living condition in the village was considered okay, it’s still a rural area, no matter how good it was, it couldn’t be that good, right?
Lady Mu was glaring at Ni Cuihua, “Of course, Ashu needs to stay alone in that piece of trash’s room!”
How does a piece of trash qualify to live in a room?
“What about Yangyang?” Ni Cuihua asked.
“Let that piece of trash roll into the woodshed! Or the sheepfold will do too!” spat Lady Mu savagely.
Ni Cuihua looked at Lady Mu and said, “Mother, how can people live in the woodshed?”
Furthermore, Ni Yang was already so big, how convenient would it be for her to live in the woodshed?
Lady Mu didn’t expect Ni Cuihua to be defiant, and scolded directly, “You barren old hen, you’re out of control now! Now you dare to talk back to me! If I ask you to move, you move!”
Mu Jinbao came over, not wasting even one word, and went straight to action!
Ni Cuihua was kicked to the ground, “You worthless woman! You dare argue with my mother! I think you are in need of a good beating….”
“Don’t hit me anymore, don’t hit me, Jinbao, I won’t dare…” Ni Cuihua begged for mercy repeatedly.
Mu Jinbao rolls up his sleeves, “Don’t waste time! Go and clean the room now!”
Ni Cuihua immediately stands up from the ground without uttering a word and goes to clean Ni Yang’s room…
Watching the happenings in the courtyard, Ni Yang could feel a surge of wrath boiling in her!
She wished she could march out right now and kill those people outside.
But reason told her she couldn’t.
She couldn’t do this.
She had to escape safely with her mother and sister from here.
Soon!
She would be able to leave with her mother and sister soon.
Just hold on a little longer!
Mu Jinbao took Li Shu to rest. In front of Ni Cuihua, Mu Jinbao was an incredibly brutal and abusive man, but in front of Li Shu, he wished he could give his heart to her.
Ni Yang hated her father to the core!
Just then, there were footsteps outside the kitchen.
Ni Yang hid her wrath, slightly turned, and put on a feigned smile, “Grandmother.”
Madame Mu tossed the stuff in her hands onto the stove, not a trace of smile on her face, “You good-for-nothing, stew this chicken! If I catch you sneaking any, I’ll tear your mouth apart!”
In these hard times when even having a full meal was difficult, how could common folks possibly afford meat?
Not to mention the chicken!
Unexpectedly, stingy Madame Mu actually bought a whole chicken for her great-grandson.
Ni Yang picked up the chicken, returned to her usual meek demeanor, and said in a low voice: “I understand, Grandmother…”
Seeing Ni Yang, Madame Mu nodded in satisfaction.
That’s how a good-for-nothing should behave!
After cleaning the hen, Ni Yang put it in the pot to stew. She couldn’t chop the chicken up, or Madame Mu would suspect her of stealing…
While stewing the chicken, Ni Yang seemed to have thought of something, the corner of her mouth curling into a slight smile.
Li Shu was an old friend after all.
How could she not give her a farewell gift before leaving?
Since Li Shu’s son, Mu Yaozu, was a scourge on society in his past life, in this life, she would turn the scourge into a fool!
She would make him incapable of harming anyone again!
Mu Yaozu was not innocent, and Ni Yang could consider this as doing a good deed by eliminating the vermin.
Ni Yang went to the base of a large tree in the courtyard, where a type of orchid grass grew, bearing purple flowers.
The flowers were non-toxic, but the stamen inside the flowers was poisonous…
This flower was colorless, tasteless, leaving no trace behind. In this era where prenatal screenings were non-existent, who could find it out?
In her past life, it was only after studying medicine that Ni Yang learned the scientific name for these flowers.
Ni Yang casually plucked several flowers and walked towards the kitchen.
After the chicken soup was ready, Ni Cuihua came in, “Yangyang, come let me pass you by and deliver the chicken soup to your Aunt Ashu.”
The air was permeated with the delicious aroma of chicken soup.
Ni Cuihua couldn’t help but swallow saliva.
She had never smelled such a savory chicken soup before.
It must be delicious.
Ni Yang checked that there was nobody behind Ni Cuihua, carefully took out a bowl of oily chicken soup, “Mom, I secretly poured this out, nobody will find out. Drink it while it’s hot.”
Chicken soup is beneficial for Ni Cuihua who has just given birth.
But how could the ever-obliging Ni Cuihua sneak a sip of a guest’s soup?
“I won’t drink it. Mom’s in good health, there’s no need for this! Pour it back quickly, I have to deliver it to your Aunt Ashu!”
Ni Yang didn’t say much in response, she lifted the chicken soup and finished it in one gulp!
Such a good chicken soup, how could Li Shu benefit from it?
“Yangyang, how could you do something like this?” Ni Cuihua slightly frowned.
Ni Yang’s eyes bore a serious look, her words were earnest and filled with emotion, “Mom, that Li Shu is not a good person at all! I’m telling you, the child in her belly is most likely my dad’s! They’re fooling you! Mom, wake up!”
