Chapter 1707 - 1702: Mu Zhenzhen Courting Disaster

"Shuangshuang, don’t be embarrassed. When it’s time to speak, just speak up. Everyone’s waiting to hear your thoughts!"

The villagers focused their attention on Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang smiled and responded confidently, "Yuan Feng’s wishes are my wishes!"

"Haha, she hasn’t married into Fengzi’s house yet, and she’s already protecting her man!" The villagers teased Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang’s expression remained unchanged, unfazed by the teasing.

Everyone looked cheerful and happy.

Getting married is a joyous occasion, not only lively but also with feasts to enjoy.

Off to the side, since Lu Yuanfeng announced he wanted to marry Mu Shuangshuang, a malignant glint appeared in Xia Guagua’s eyes.

She approached Lu Yuanfeng wholeheartedly, wanting to show him her merits and beauty.

But him?

He not only ignored her but said in front of her he wanted to marry that bitch Mu Shuangshuang.

What does he take Xia Guagua for?

Does he really think she’s someone he can bully so casually?

If not for the sentiments from before, she wouldn’t have come over at all.

"Xia Guagua, why are you still standing here? Didn’t you hear Fengzi wants to marry Shuangshuang? What, you plan to do some mischief and steal away what’s not yours?

In my opinion, women like you deserve to be with Wang San. Anyone would think you’re foul!" The villagers sneered.

"None of your business!" Xia Guagua retorted.

She’d had enough and wouldn’t tolerate these rednecks, these damn ugly women, any longer.

"Heh, you shameless woman, still daring to talk back to us. Get out, don’t leave, and we’ll treat you unkindly!"

Several village women didn’t want to see Xia Guagua at all, speaking with not an ounce of politeness.

Xia Guagua is fierce, but she’s alone.

Facing a group of women all looking eager to tear her mouth apart.

"You all wait and see! I won’t let you off easily!" Xia Guagua yelled at the village women.

Then she pointed at Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng, "And you two, I won’t spare you either!"

Mu Shuangshuang smirked, "Anytime, bring it on!"

Xia Guagua left, and the village women celebrated like victorious roosters, while mocking Xia Guagua in front of Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang, Lu Yuanfeng bid farewell to everyone and headed home.

This season is perfect for planting vegetables.

As soon as the two returned, they headed to their vegetable patch.

Lu Yuanfeng didn’t rest, carrying his hoe, went to each patch to till the soil, while Mu Shuangshuang planted seeds.

Neither felt tired from working, just like before.

After a busy morning, they returned home to find Yu Si Niang had already prepared lunch.

She saw the sweat on Mu Shuangshuang and Mu Shuangshuang’s faces, concerned, "You two really are not willing to slack even a bit!

Your father said just the other day he’d hire someone to till those patches, but you’ve finished all the work yourselves! He doesn’t even need to hire anyone now!"

"Isn’t that great, saving dad and mom a worker’s wage!" Mu Shuangshuang replied cheerfully.

"This child of yours really knows how to talk, but the one tilling the soil is Yuan Feng!" Yu Si Niang feigned dissatisfaction.

"Yuan Feng, look, I haven’t even married into your family yet, and my mom is already protecting you! If I become your wife, my mom might just put you on a pedestal!" Mu Shuangshuang joked with Lu Yuanfeng.

Lu Yuanfeng chuckled, "It’s fine, I’ll pamper you, and not let you do any work!"

"See, Yuan Feng is protecting you!" Yu Si Niang remarked.

"Alright, alright, mom, stop teasing me. I’m hungry and need to eat!" Mu Shuangshuang said.

"Alright, alright, let’s eat! By the way, your dad won’t be home for lunch today. It’ll just be the three of us," Yu Si Niang said.

"Mom, what about Taohua?" Mu Shuangshuang asked curiously.

When she returned last time, she didn’t see Taohua.

This time, again, no sign of Taohua. What’s she been up to?

"At the school! She’s helping Mr. Luo Bai’s mom with cooking, cleaning the school. Your dad and I discussed it and decided to pay her," Yu Si Niang explained.

"That’s good! Though she shouldn’t stay at the school indefinitely. The food there can’t be as good as ours.

She’s a pregnant woman and needs nutrition, otherwise the child won’t have enough and that’s trouble!" Mu Shuangshuang commented.

"Ah? Then what should we do? Your dad’s also mentioned recently that the food at the school isn’t great, and suggested Taohua come back, but she insisted on staying!" Yu Si Niang looked worried.

"No problem, I’ll talk to Taohua about it later!" Mu Shuangshuang said.

"Shuangshuang, maybe you should just invite her back. We can easily afford to feed her! An extra person livens things up!" Yu Si Niang suggested.

"Okay!"

Mu Shuangshuang nodded.

Yu Si Niang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing her daughter would handle it.

Lunch was just three people, a simple meal with two dishes and a soup.

Afterward, Mu Shuangshuang tidied the kitchen, with Lu Yuanfeng assisting.

With nothing much to do, Yu Si Niang went out to find Zhao Yun to play with.

But before long, she returned in a hurry.

Once back, she started shouting, "Something’s wrong, something’s wrong..."

"Shuangshuang, hurry... hurry..."

"Mom, what’s going on?" Mu Shuangshuang had just finished washing dishes, hands still greasy.

She didn’t care about dirty hands, wiped them on her apron, and anxiously asked Yu Si Niang.

"Your second aunt... your second aunt fought with Sun Dali! No, Sun Dali got beat up by your second aunt!" Yu Si Niang said.

Mu Shuangshuang relaxed upon hearing this.

"Well, let them fight, it’s not our family’s business!" Mu Shuangshuang shrugged unconcernedly, responding to Yu Si Niang.

"No, Sun Dali’s head got injured, and it’s still bleeding! The villagers asked me to call you and Yuan Feng over to check it out, or the issue won’t end!" Yu Si Niang said.

Mu Zhenzhen had previously kept her head down in the Sun family.

But after becoming pregnant, everything changed.

She not only rose to power, but she freely insulted and beat the Sun family.

Granny Sun desperately wanted Mu Zhenzhen’s unborn grandson, agreeing to any demand Zhenzhen made.

Compared to the past, when they coaxed Mu Xiangxiang, it’s even more excessive!

Mu Zhenzhen didn’t improve with Granny Sun’s compliance but acted even more outrageously.

Every day, she’d complain about the food and throw chopsticks.

The next day, she’d scold Granny Sun and Sun Dali for not caring for her over minor issues.

The Sun Family suffered, and so did villagers.

Every time they argued, virtually everyone knew.

Everyone couldn’t bear the noise, but they had no solution.

This time, Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng returned home together, the villagers immediately thought of them and pleaded with Yu Si Niang to call them over to intervene.

"Mom, this issue really isn’t ours to deal with! Second Aunt’s affairs aren’t even handled by Grandpa and Grandma, why should we?"
