Although Yun Xi had left, a focused gaze followed her.

It turned out that Old Madam Yun had been staring at the cloth bag in Yun Xi’s hand. She thought that if those two beautiful flowery dresses were to be worn by her little granddaughter, how beautiful her granddaughter would be!

Deep down, she was thinking how to give those dresses to her little granddaughter.

This family was really shameless! They were all outright bandits, were they not?!

At this time, someone in the city sent a package and brought some rare fruits. This matter had spread throughout the Yun family.

The second daughter-in-law of the Yun family had been scolding her husband for being incompetent. Why did all the good things happen to the other two families? Her own family could not get anything out of it. The second son of the Yun family, Yun Lin, was an honest man. He listened to his wife’s criticism but did not say anything.

The eldest son’s family was even more furious.

“Tell me why all the good things are given to the youngest brother-in-law’s family.”

Liu Fang stomped her feet angrily in the room. She could not wait to bring all those things to her room right now.

“Well, Yun Xi’s engagement with the Zhou family’s son had obviously been broken off, but the way the Zhou family treated her was as if she was engaged to their son.”

Liu Fang turned around, only to see Yun Lian, who was sitting on a small stool plucking beans. She was so infuriated that she directly slapped Yun Lian on the head.

“Didn’t you boast that you have a good relationship with the young master of the Zhou family? Aren’t you about to be engaged to him privately? Why didn’t he send you some clothes and fruits? You useless thing, it was a waste of my effort to raise you. At that time, I might as well carry Yun Xi back.”

Yun Lian’s head was in pain, but she did not dare to retaliate. She could only clench her hands in private, her nails deep in her palms. She wanted to remember the pain and take revenge on Yun Xi, who had snatched her things away.

Perhaps once a person was stuck in their own imagination for a long time, their imagination would turn into reality. Yun Lian had long forgotten that she was the one who snatched what originally belonged to Yun Xi. She was the one who had been coveting the things of others. However, she had created the image of a victim for herself now.

“Stop plucking the beans, you useless piece of trash. You still have the mood to do such a thing here. Pack up and follow me to the youngest sister-in-law’s room.”

Liu Fang and Yun Lian were pushing and shoving at the door. The second daughter-in-law had long been waiting for this scene.

To be honest, the second daughter-in-law did not have a daughter. She was not interested in Yun Xi’s two flowery dresses. However, she was indeed very interested in those rare fruits. She also wanted to get a share of the fruits and let her two sons to taste them.

Seeing that Liu Fang and Yun Lian were almost at the door of the room, the second daughter-in-law trotted to keep up with them.

“Hey, aren’t you my eldest sister-in-law and eldest niece? Why are you two in such a hurry?”

“We’re heading to the youngest sister-in-law’s room.”

Liu Fang sized up the second sister-in-law from head to toe. She knew better than anyone else what was going on in her mind. However, she did not expose the truth.

“What a coincidence. I have nothing better to do. Let’s go there together.”

The group of people came to the door of the youngest sister-in-law’s room.

“Are you there, Youngest Sister-in-law? It’s me, Eldest Sister-in-law.”

Knowing that Chen Li was easy to talk to and had no temper, Liu Fang brought these two people over to have fun.

“I’m here. Are you sewing Brother-in-law’s shoes?”

“Eldest Sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law, take a seat.”

Then, she brought a plate of melon seeds to these people and placed it on the bed.

“Hey. Are you trying to fool us with these lousy melon seeds? You have some good stuff and aren’t willing to share it with us, huh?”

“Eldest Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? What good stuff do I have? Yun Shan’s monthly earnings can’t even compare to Eldest Brother-in-law’s weekly earnings.”

After hearing these words, Liu Fang began to feel a little comfortable.

“That’s true. Your eldest brother-in-law is the most promising man in our family. Didn’t Yun Gang introduce Yun Shan his current accounting job?”

“Yes, yes.”

Chen Li echoed what she said.

“However, since Yun Gang takes care of Yun Shan so much, don’t you have to give us some benefits you’ve received from the Zhou family?”

“Yeah. I saw Yun Xi, that little girl, take back some rare fruits yesterday! Nobody in our village has seen them before, let alone tasted them.”

The second sister-in-law began to add fuel to the fire.

Chen Li was aware that they were planning to get the fruits, but she had always been resigned to the situation and did not know how to reply to the two sisters-in-law’s words.

“The fruits...”
