Spatial Peasant Girl: These Mad Darlings Are Delicate and Gullible

Chapter 250 - 250: My Mother-In-Law Wants To Kill Me

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After Second Uncle Ning died, Old Madam Ning got her youngest son to hang him from the beam and make him look like he had committed suicide. A letter even fell out of his sleeve. On it was written guilt towards his parents. It said that he was too ashamed to face his family, so he decided to die.

Along with the letter was the separation document. It clearly stated that the second branch of the Ning Family had long separated from the old residence and had nothing to do with his parents.

Old Madam Ning cried sadly and hugged him. “Fengcai, do you not want to implicate Father and Mother and plan to use your death to settle the gambling debt?”

“Why are you so stupid!”

Ning Fengcai’s hand hung down softly and he would never answer again.

Little Uncle Ning watched this scene from afar. For some reason, he felt a chill run down his spine. His mother had asked him to imitate Second Brother’s handwriting and write the letter. He had always thought that the separation document had been destroyed. His Second Brother was even hung up by him personally. His mother, who was preparing the white cloth and giving all the instructions, did everything in detail, as if she had rehearsed it many times in her mind.

Little Aunt Ning’s face was pale and ugly. Just as others thought that she was sad about her brother’s death, they heard her say, “Since we’ve already split up, I don’t have to mourn for him, right? I can’t wait three years before getting married.”

The villagers who came to help felt that it was ridiculous. What was this family?

The rules of the casino were that the family members could repay their debts, but reality proved that the second branch of the family was only an independent family in the old residence. Their debts could only be paid by their own family.

However, apart from Second Uncle Ning himself, there was only…

“Where’s his wife?”

Old Madam Ning’s eyelids twitched. “Who knows? She might have been burned to death in the fire.”

“In short, death is like a lamp going out. Fengcai’s debt doesn’t count anymore, right?”

The debt collector cursed fiercely, “How f*cking unlucky!”

The county magistrate’s rule was extremely strict. Not long ago, the gambling house was implicated because of a lawyer’s crime and was severely punished by the county magistrate. Hence, he did not dare to be too rash now. Seeing that the old residence had taken out evidence of their separation from the second branch, or rather, expelled the second branch from the genealogy, and the date was before the debt, it was not good for them to hold on to it.

Both sides took a step back. The betting house returned the house deed “stolen” by Second Uncle Ning and Little Aunt Ning’s indenture. However, it was impossible to return the jewelry Old Madam Ning had given them previously. Second Aunt Ning’s indenture was also in their hands. They were just waiting to take her away immediately when they found her.

When Old Madam Ning heard these people swear that they would never give them a chance to meet again, she looked bitter, but her heart was filled with smugness. It was not like she would ever see them again.

After they left, she spat a few mouthfuls of thick phlegm on the ground. Her heart ached when she looked at the burned place.

If she had known that Liu Cuihua was not inside, she would have gotten someone to put out the fire quickly.

Now, even the chicken coop was burned, and the most majestic and mighty rooster was charred.

She kicked him hard. “Stupid thing, don’t you know how to run?” She couldn’t eat it even if she wanted to.

But where did Liu Cuihua go? Did she fall into a feces pit?

Then she shouldn’t fish her out for the next few days. If she was soaked for long enough, it would be even harder to tell how she died.

She did not suspect that she had made a mistake at all. After all, her second daughter-in-law was so greedy. How could she hold back from drinking chicken soup? She had drugged her daughter-in-law more than her son.

She was definitely dead.

Second Aunt Ning didn’t know if she had fallen asleep or fainted. Her body wasn’t in good shape, and there was always blood flowing out. When she woke up and was about to find a place to wash up, she heard someone outside.

“That old woman from the Ning Family is really ruthless. She said that she promised the debt collector that if she finds her second daughter-in-law, she will sell her to the dirtiest and messiest brothel and let her receive customers every day. She will do it until her death to pay off her son’s debts!”

“If she gets pregnant, her son will drown and her daughter will be raised in a brothel. She will continue to receive guests…”

They were all unbearable words that made the veins on Second Aunt Ning’s forehead bulge.

She did not know where she got the strength, but she held back her anger and rushed out of the dilapidated house and out of Fortune Village. She was even “lucky” to encounter an ox cart. It took her to the county office and she sounded the drum.

County Magistrate Shen started work as soon as he got to work. The person looked a bit familiar to him.

Second Aunt Ning knelt down fiercely. “I want to seek justice! I want to sue my mother-in-law. She wants to kill me!”

County Magistrate Shen had heard this many times. Since ancient times, mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law always had problems . They had been arguing every other day. Both sides guessed the same thing about each other. However, Second Aunt Ning continued, “She wanted to give me poisonous chicken soup. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to escape, but my husband probably died an unnatural death. It’s my mother-in-law. She killed my man with her own hands!”

County Magistrate Shen’s face turned serious. “So, your mother-in-law… killed her own son?”

Second Aunt Ning nodded vigorously, but the long period of fear and postpartum weakness made her black out and she fell.

“Sir, this woman seems to be injured. There’s blood on the ground!”

It was more important to save her. County Magistrate Shen made the decision. “Get the doctor first.”

Xiaoxiao’s family didn’t know about the situation in the county office and the village for the time being. Last night, they only knew that there was another problem at the old residence. Ning Fengnian and his wife asked about the situation and left home decisively. They even couldn’t wait to leave.

After staying at the inn for the night, they arrived at the shop early.

Under Xiaoxiao’s guidance, Madam Song was already familiar with the simple milk tea mix. After all, she was a woman. Compared to Ning Anhui’s clumsiness, the milk tea she made was no different from Xiaoxiao’s.

If Xiaoxiao concocted the paste for the snacks and let her watch the hourglass to control the time to take the snacks out of the oven, it would also be fine. This way, Xiaoxiao would be able to teach the “apprentices” sent by the franchise shops freely.

Other than Qian Jiao’er, most of the 15 apprentices in the franchise were chefs in their forties. Xiaoxiao really felt that they were misusing their talents, but she did not say much. She would teach whoever was sent over.

Before teaching, Xiaoxiao and the shopkeepers still had an important thing to do, which was to complete the signing ceremony of the franchise shop together.

The process was not that complicated. They signed their names one by one, fingerprinted them, and sent them to the officials for stamping.

Many businessmen in Great Xia were not used to filing cases with the government. They simply signed them privately. However, Xiaoxiao was unwilling. Firstly, she was used to modern legal documents. Secondly, their cooperation would be more guaranteed with the official seal of the government. Only then would the shop owners who participated in the franchise be able to better follow the rules of the contract.

However, sending the contract to the government was just a process. Hence, after the contract was signed, Xiaoxiao started teaching.

Today’s lesson was the trick to brewing milk and the heat of brewing tea. The tea in the milk tea was different from the tea brewed in the family, but the chefs felt that it was easy at first until Xiaoxiao started to talk about small ingredients.

“This pearl ball blah, blah…”

“This taro round blah, blah…”

“This red bean, pudding, snow top, blah, blah…”

The chefs who walked out of “So It’s You Milk Tea Shop” with their notes felt that they had not listened to this lesson. They knew it, but they didn’t know it either..
