”Dad, Mom, what are you doing? You’ve been together for so long, what’s the point in fighting?!”

”Exactly, Mom, Dad, you’re not young anymore, there’s no need to get physical!” Mrs. Lin chimed in.

Mu Danian played along, supporting Mr. Mu, saying he would take him to see the doctor.

Mr. Mu waved away Mu Danian’s hand, ”Stop pretending, all of you; why didn’t you tell me about Xiangxiang being abandoned? Everyone in the village knows, except me!”

Mr. Mu’s face carried an unusual anger.

At this moment, his mind surged with various emotions.

”Dad, we couldn’t decide on this matter; it was Xiangxiang’s own decision!” Mrs. Lin was quick to absolve herself of responsibility.

The others were just as unapologetic.

Eventually, the blame landed on Old Mrs. Mu and Mu Xiangxiang.

Mu Xiangxiang, naturally, didn’t care; she had thick skin and ignored the situation.

She just held onto a piece of glutinous rice cake, eating nonstop.

Mr. Mu was already angry; seeing the main culprit eating so energetically, he waved his hand and directly threw away Mu Xiangxiang’s rice cake.

”Eat, eat, eat; what else can you do besides eat? Even pigs gain weight, but all you do is bring shame to the Old Mu Family!”

Mu Xiangxiang was initially stunned; when she realized Mr. Mu was scolding her, her mouth twitched, and she started crying loudly.

”Woohoo... Dad, why did you throw away my stuff? I haven’t eaten enough, I’m hungry...”

If there’s one thing Mu Xiangxiang is focused on, it’s food.

”Eat till you’re dead, you shameless thing. Get out!” Mr. Mu pointed outside, ready to make Mu Xiangxiang leave.

Old Mrs. Mu blocked in front of Mu Xiangxiang, ”Xiangxiang was raised by me, she’s my daughter; if you want her to leave, you have to get through me first!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Mr. Mu used all his strength to push Old Mrs. Mu out.

After pushing her out, he said to Old Mrs. Mu, ”Take your pig with you and get out!”

”You... Mu Dabiao, are you speaking like a human? How dare you call Xiangxiang a pig?” Old Mrs. Mu was shocked.

She couldn’t believe such words came out of her husband’s mouth.

”I said it, she is the pig you raised! Even pigs don’t eat as much as she does; both of you get out!”

Mr. Mu, in his fury, shook all over.

The authority in his voice was astonishing.

The rest of the Old Mu Family didn’t dare to breathe loudly.

Old Mrs. Mu opened her mouth but found herself at a loss for words.

But her pride didn’t allow her to back down, so Old Mrs. Mu said, ”Mu Dabiao, you drove me out; don’t regret it, whoever lowers their head first is a fool!”

Taking Mu Xiangxiang’s hand, Old Mrs. Mu walked out of the Old Mu Family’s gate!

Mrs. Lin and Mu Dazhong exchanged glances, a smile in both their eyes.

It seemed they were quite happy about Old Mrs. Mu’s departure!

”Dad, if Mom leaves, what will we do in the future? There won’t be anyone to take charge in the house.” Mrs. Lin cleverly asked.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Mu directly replied, ”Your sister-in-law is the eldest, she should be responsible for family matters; I’ll talk to her later!”

”But Sister-in-law is always busy with Brother’s affairs, she probably can’t handle anything else!”

Mrs. Lin said.

Mrs. Lin wanted control over the rear courtyard, so she could gain some benefits!

”This...” Mr. Mu listened to Mrs. Lin and thought there was some truth in it.

But he didn’t want to hand over the courtyard affairs to Mrs. Lin.

Finally, Mr. Mu said, ”Alright, Fourth Daughter-in-law, you’ll manage the courtyard’s big and small matters!”

Mr. Mu’s sudden appointment nearly made Mrs. Liu’s heart jump out of her throat.

She waved her hands repeatedly, ”Dad, I can’t do it, I can’t... I...”

Mrs. Lin’s face was quite ugly; Mr. Mu passed her over, giving the authority to the Fourth Daughter-in-law, clearly showing his disdain for her!

”Dad, although I’m not always diligent, I am reliable at critical moments!

And besides, managing the courtyard, it’s either Mom or me; no one else can do it. Giving it to Fourth Daughter-in-law is a joke!”

Mrs. Lin’s words were too blunt, thoroughly splashing Mr. Mu’s face.

Originally, Mr. Mu was determined not to release authority.

But Mu Dazhong was clever; he said, ”Dad, Gou Dan’s mother has a sharp tongue but a soft heart; she can’t speak well.

However, she’s not bad-hearted, and she’s bold, not afraid to say or do things, not afraid of offending people!

For example, with the food for Xiangxiang, if Xiaxia’s mother was bold enough to refuse, Mom probably wouldn’t have given Xiangxiang so much to eat!”

Mu Dazhong’s words were somewhat provocative.

But they hit exactly on Mr. Mu’s points!

Mr. Mu, while blaming Old Mrs. Mu for being ignorant, also felt the family members didn’t dare to speak against her, which indulged Old Mrs. Mu to act more excessively.

In the past, Old Mrs. Mu made Mrs. Liu do everything.

Mrs. Liu naturally became the scapegoat.

Mu Dajiang wanted to explain to his wife but was pulled back by Mrs. Liu’s wrist.

In the end, Mrs. Liu could only swallow the bitter fruit, being scolded amidst the chaos along with her husband.

The authority over the courtyard was temporarily handed to Mrs. Lin.

Which meant everything in the backyard had to be approved by Mrs. Lin before being used.

As soon as Mr. Mu left, Mrs. Lin rushed to the backyard kitchen, meticulously memorizing the quantity and usage of every item there!

Even the rice in the rice jar, Mrs. Lin measured the volume with a wooden container.

Mrs. Liu entered the kitchen to boil water and saw Mrs. Lin measuring the rice; she was curious but didn’t dare to speak.

At this moment, Mrs. Lin looked up and glanced at Mrs. Liu.

”Xiaxia’s mother, what are you doing? Carrying a teapot!”

Mrs. Liu spoke honestly, ”Sister-in-law just told me she wanted to drink tea, so she asked me to brew some.”

”Phooey, what a shameless woman she is!

Want to drink tea? Brewing tea costs firewood. Has she ever paid a penny? Or contributed anything to the household?”

Mrs. Lin cursed continuously, then turned around and scooped a ladle of cold water from the water tank, handing it to Mrs. Liu.

”Take this to that woman, tell her that from now on, I, Lin Xiaozao, will manage the house!

For Big Family’s food, clothing, and other necessities, everything must be reported to me; furthermore, if they want to eat here, they must pay!”

Mrs. Lin’s management approach was grand and imposing.

Even more than what Old Mrs. Mu did!

Mrs. Liu looked at the ladle of cold water helplessly; whether to walk or stay, she just stood there, hoping Mrs. Lin would relent.

”Why are you staring at me? Xiaxia’s mother, let me tell you, does Sister-in-law not have hands or feet?

She asks you to boil water, and you comply; couldn’t you refuse?

You’re a grown woman; what do you use your mouth for? Eating?”

Mrs. Lin’s tirade pushed Mrs. Liu out.

Once Mrs. Liu left, Mrs. Lin’s mouth almost curled into a wide grin.

Managing the house is the life for her!

The Third Branch’s cheeky girl smiles every day, probably for the same reason?
