From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

”Got it, you stupid woman, hurry up and go!”

Mu Dazhong gritted his teeth, enduring the pain in his backside, and yelled at Mrs. Lin.

Although Mrs. Lin was somewhat unwilling, when she thought of the thing she was holding, she subconsciously sped up her pace.

Once she was out of the house, Mrs. Lin randomly found a spot and poured out the contents of the urine pot, no, the urine from the teapot.

Carrying the now-empty teapot, she hurried to the kitchen.

At this time, there was only Mrs. Liu busy in the kitchen.

Mu Dade’s schoolmate had come over, and Mrs. Liu was assigned to the kitchen to prepare tea for them. After Mrs. Lin took the teapot, Mrs. Liu had been looking for it.

Seeing that Mr. Mu had already urged twice, if this time, tea wasn’t served, the blame would fall heavily on Mrs. Liu!

The appearance of Mrs. Lin certainly solved Mrs. Liu’s biggest problem.

Mrs. Liu hurriedly approached Mrs. Lin and reached out to her, ”Second sister-in-law, you’re finally here. I was just looking for the teapot in this kitchen!

Big brother’s classmates are here, and dad asked me to prepare some tea for them. Hand me the teapot, I need to boil some water!”

Without thinking, Mrs. Lin handed the teapot over to Mrs. Liu.

Eager to boil water, Mrs. Liu opened the teapot and started pouring cold water in, but didn’t notice there was something not fully poured out in the teapot, with a different color than the water.

After putting the teapot on the stove, Mrs. Liu left the kitchen for a while. During this time, Mrs. Lin picked up the vinegar jar from the cupboard and quickly rushed out of the Mu Family’s kitchen.

By the time she got home, some vinegar had already spilled out.

But that didn’t affect what she was about to do next. Inside, Mu Dazhong was already lying on the bed.

With chicken feathers stuck to it, his red and swollen backside was exposed to the air.

”Daddy Gou Dan, are you feeling better?” Mrs. Lin asked Mu Dazhong, her gaze unconsciously falling on the plucked chicken that Mu Dazhong had placed on the table.

Looking at it like this, the chicken didn’t look dirty, and later she could just wash it by the river under the cover of night, and it could be roasted for dinner!

”You’re not the one who’s burnt, of course you’d say that, it hurts like hell! Did you bring the vinegar I asked for?” Mu Dazhong asked.

Mrs. Lin nodded quickly.

”Yes! I’ll find a cloth to wipe it!” Mrs. Lin said.

After a burn, using vinegar to clean it is a method many people in Er Gui Village use.

Just like when there’s bleeding, grabbing a handful of ash from the stove, it’s a method passed down for years.

”Help me remove the chicken feathers from my backside first, it’s really prickly!”

”Alright!” Mrs. Lin listened to Mu Dazhong’s words, took two steps forward, extended her hand, and started plucking the chicken feathers from Mu Dazhong’s backside.

In doing so, she accidentally touched Mu Dazhong’s backside.

A wave of excruciating pain came over him, and Mu Dazhong cried out in agony.

”Oww~ Oww~! You stupid woman, are you trying to kill me!”

Clutching his backside, Mu Dazhong hopped around, no different from a monkey.

His face, from the pain, was flushed red.

Mrs. Lin was still making sarcastic comments, ”It’s just a touch on your bottom, it’s not like it’s the first time, why scream so loud? Be careful not to draw people’s attention and let them know the wrongs we’ve done!”

Mu Dazhong quickly covered his mouth with his hand, his gaze toward Mrs. Lin still filled with resentment.

Mu Dazhong vowed internally, when it’s time to eat chicken, he surely won’t let Mrs. Lin have much.

So, Mrs. Lin continued cleaning the chicken feathers from Mu Dazhong’s backside.

On another front, under Mr. Mu’s urging, Mrs. Liu went to the kitchen to bring the newly boiled water kettle, along with the teacups, to the main hall.

In the main room, led by Mu Dade, the men were chatting and laughing.

Mrs. Liu poured water and made tea for them, and Mu Dade chimed in: ”This tea is the finest, I brought it back from the Capital. Give it a try!”

Their classmates were naturally happy, thinking Mu Dade hadn’t forgotten their camaraderie.

Little did they know, these teas were leftovers from the batch Mu Shuangshuang had brought home last time.

But they were carefully selected by Yu Liulang!

”Since it’s from the Capital, we must savor it properly!”

Each man held a cup of tea, first smelling its aroma, then observing the color of the brewed tea.

One of them couldn’t resist and took a small sip.

After drinking, he furrowed his brow.

”What’s up? Is the tea not good?” Mu Dade noticed the man’s expression and couldn’t help but ask.

”No, the tea tastes good, but there’s something off about it, can’t quite put my finger on it!”

”Haha, that’s exactly why Dade brought this back. This taste is what the high-ranking officials and nobles in the Capital love the most!” Mrs. Jin chuckled, trying to smooth over the strange taste of the tea.

Not only that, she even raised a cup and took a sip, pretending to appreciate it.

”This tea, with a sweetness accompanied by a hint of astringency, stands out as top-notch compared to ordinary teas!”

Others, wanting to please Mu Dade and Mrs. Jin, quickly chimed in.

”Great tea, indeed great tea!”

Just like that, each person drank a cup, and the whole pot of tea was finished clean.

...

At the Third Branch of the Mu Family, Mu Shuangshuang distributed some of the snacks she bought to the chatting women.

As they ate, inevitably, they gossiped about things Mu Shuangshuang might know.

Regarding marriage matters, they had already asked.

This time, they inquired about Xia Guagua.

The other day, Gu Jiulian had made a bold claim in the village, saying she was going to the town to enjoy life with her daughter, acting like she wasn’t a laborer anymore, even saying her daughter had opened a restaurant.

Mu Shuangshuang reported honestly.

”Xia Guagua indeed opened a restaurant, and the location is right opposite my restaurant!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

”What? Opposite, won’t that steal your business?” one curious woman asked.

”I don’t know what to say about that! There’s definitely some impact, but everyone has the right to do business. I can’t dictate what others do or don’t do!”

Mu Shuangshuang’s calm and collected attitude won the favor of the village women.

”Shuang, there are good folks and bad folks! Good people will be blessed, bad people will face retribution!

Back then, when Xia Guagua beat Wang Fugui like that and even plotted to kill him, someone like that should face consequences.

As for why she can still open a restaurant now, I guess the heavens are leaving her for a while longer, waiting for her to commit all the misdeeds before dealing with her all at once!”

The women’s comforting words, though seemingly casual, had a semblance of reasoning.

Mu Shuangshuang felt better listening to them.

”Thank you, aunties. Tonight, stay for dinner, and I’ll make something delicious for you!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

The women, hearing Mu Shuangshuang’s offer, felt delighted in their hearts.

However, outwardly, they still politely declined Mu Shuangshuang’s offer.
