Seeing that Mrs. Zhang had been scared away, Lin Sanshui called for everyone to disperse.

The show ended, so what was the point of staying here?

Gu Nian rolled her eyes and shouted, “I know why Xiaoniu was injured!”

The people that were about to go home suddenly stopped in their tracks.

“Girl, you know what’s going on?” Someone interested in the show asked.

Gu Nian widened her eyes and nodded. “I tripped on the mountain yesterday and happened to lie in front of a big tree. I even hit a rabbit. When we brought the rabbit back, we met Xiaoniu. Xiaoniu was fierce and insisted that we tell him how we got the rabbit. My brother was stupid and thought the rabbit was a gift from a giant tree after I kowtowed to it. So, he told Xiaoniu that he must kowtow to the giant tree to get the rabbit.”

Gu Nian used an innocent tone to speak clearly. It made people feel that this girl was cute, but they could not help but sigh at Mrs. Zhang’s rudeness.

Although some people would have a lucky encounter, even a regular person would know it was a prank.

Besides, Mrs. Zhang’s son got himself injured because he was too greedy, so she could not blame the Lin family.

However, Gu Nian could hit a rabbit when she fell. Some people exclaimed that she was lucky, but some people couldn’t help but feel jealous.

However, they were just jealous and said some sarcastic words. They would not do anything that would harm people.

There was the smell of meat from the Lin family today. Those who didn’t know all attributed it to the rabbit.

They saw Dahu bringing Gu Nian to wash the pig offal. These things were also for poor people to eat. There was nothing special about them.

At Xiaoniu’s house, Mrs. Zhang suddenly pushed her husband. “Lin Man, you’re just a coward and only know how to be picky in your own house. Your wife and child are being bullied! If you’re a man, then go fight Lin Sanshui!”

Lin Man squatted on the ground and held her head in her hands. “I’ve already told you it’s not their fault. We didn’t take good care of the child, and you insisted on making a scene. What can I do now that you’ve made a fool of yourself? It’s already difficult for us to have children. My father and mother didn’t leave me any brothers. If I go to their house alone, wouldn’t I be looking for a beating?”

Although Mrs. Zhang Shi had caused trouble for the Lin family, Lin Sanshui smiled like a flower when he saw that his eldest and second brothers’ families had come.

Lin Shui and Lin Ershui came over with two women carrying hoes. As soon as they entered the door, Lin Ershui asked, “Third Brother, didn’t you say that Lin Man is here to cause trouble? Where is he?”

They had heard Dashan’s words and came to help, but they did not see Lin Man. Instead, the courtyard was filled with the smell of meat, which made people hungry.

“It’s not Uncle Man. It’s his wife who brought Xiaoniu to cause trouble. Third Uncle asked me to call you over.” Lin Dashan hurried over to explain.

Lin Shui raised his hand and smacked Lin Dashan’s head. “Is your third uncle stupid, or are you stupid? Why did you call us over for an annoying woman? Wouldn’t it be embarrassing?”

Lin Sanshui said, “Big Brother, Second Brother, Sister-in-law, don’t misunderstand. I didn’t call you here to fight. We bought some meat today. I thought that since the three of us did not have a gathering in a long time. Why don’t we take this opportunity to have a drink or two? It’ll satisfy our cravings.”
