The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 847: Chapter 333: Screw Your Tragic Perfection (Part 3)_2

Two thousand coins or one bucket of coarse grain is enough for Yaozong to spend for half a month!

Ms. Hetian didn’t know Old Lady Han’s thoughts. She had only one thing on her mind, to see how her brother’s condition was.

Although she vaguely had a suspicion and understood some reasons, she still wanted to verify it personally.

”Yaozong, how are you?”

Ms. Hetian quickly hurried to Tian Yaozong’s side.

Tian Yaozong hurriedly hid the half-eaten bun in his arms, then began to moan and groan.

”Oh, my head is so dizzy, my whole body is burning, am I dying?”

To be honest, Tian Yaozong’s act of pretending to be sick was quite convincing.

Beside him was a thin, dark-skinned woman in her twenties, holding a four or five-year-old boy in her arms.

Even though the boy in her arms was fatter and healthier than her, she still held him carefully with her arms thin as sticks.

She was Yaozong’s wife, Wang Family, and in the Tian Family, she was exploited just slightly less than Ms. Hetian.

She was brought into the family with the sole purpose of bearing sons and serving her husband and in-laws.

Usually, she worked in the fields, washed clothes, and cooked meals. If Ms. Hetian didn’t come to help, all the chores were Wang Family’s responsibility.

Even though Wang Family bore a son, with Old Lady Han being a mean old lady and Tian Yaozong being a spoiled mama’s boy, her days were still miserable.

Of course, she was slightly better off than Ms. Hetian.

Because in the eyes of Old Lady Han and other Tian family members, a daughter-in-law who bore a grandson was considered part of the Tian Family.

As for Ms. Hetian, she was married off, so she was an outsider.

Old Lady Han also wanted Wang Family to bear more children and didn’t dare to push her to death.

Unlike how she treated Ms. Hetian, as if she wished to break her bones and suck out all the marrow.

Although Wang Family’s status in the Tian Family was slightly higher than Ms. Hetian, she was used to being bullied by her mother-in-law and husband, making her particularly soft in nature and not daring to show off to Ms. Hetian.

Seeing her older sister-in-law hurriedly running over, and her husband, who was eating buns a moment ago, suddenly becoming a patient, Wang Family already knew her mother-in-law’s and husband’s scheme, feeling somewhat uneasy in her heart.

”Big sister, you’re here!” Wang Family did not dare to make eye contact with Ms. Hetian, tightly hugging her son, squeezing out this greeting from her throat.

Ms. Hetian nodded slightly as a response.

Then, she squatted down to carefully observe Tian Yaozong’s complexion, ”Yaozong, how are you?”

”Big sister, I feel awful! Oh, my head hurts, my whole body is burning with fever, am I going to die?”

Tian Yaozong pretended to be weak and acted spoiled with his simple-minded big sister, oh no, his legitimate big sister.

Old Lady Han, panting, caught up with them. As soon as she stepped into the temporary cave dwelling, she heard her son’s words.

Old Lady Han, being very cunning, rushed forward crying: ”Oh, my son, what happened to you? God, how did you get so sick?”

”My son, it’s all because your parents are useless, can’t even afford to get you treatment!”

”God, let me take my son’s place, or let a good-hearted person buy this old woman, exchange for money, get my son treated, and give my daughter a full meal!”

While Old Lady Han cried with hidden intentions, she didn’t forget to sneak glances at Ms. Hetian from the corner of her eye.

If it were the Ms. Hetian from before today, seeing her ”sick and frail” little brother, and hearing her mother’s deceitful crying, she would have been heartbroken and touched.

But now, Ms. Hetian’s mind was in chaos, yet remarkably clear.

She saw clearly that her brother, despite saying he was unwell, showed no signs of illness on his face.

And her mother, after crying for so long, hadn’t shed a single tear.

As for the talk of ”selling me...to give my daughter a full meal,” it was nonsense!

Well, let alone on the journey of famine, even in good years, before Ms. Hetian got married, she hadn’t had a full meal in nearly twenty years.

Yes, nearly twenty years!

Tian Daniu didn’t get married until she was twenty.

Don’t think Old Lady Han wasn’t in a hurry to arrange her marriage out of love.

If Tian Daniu, like her other three sisters, were weak, frail, and could hardly do any farm work, she would have been married off by her mother long ago!

Tian Daniu was naturally strong, even if she was perpetually underfed, appearing skinny, she could still work better than a grown man.
