Chapter 171: Chapter 171: The Greedy Old Woman
Big Sister Mo Yaner, in Xuexue’s past life memories, was someone with a straightforward nature. After getting married and because her husband’s family was poor, the Mo family members didn’t like her coming back. Every time she came back, Old Lady Mo would express her discontent not so subtly—nose not a nose, eyes not eyes—and during meals, she would slam the bowls down so hard they would clank resoundingly, saying things like “The money-losing daughter who’s been married off has such thick skin, and still shamelessly comes back to her maiden home to freeload.”
Madam Xie had always been fearful of Old Lady Mo. Although her heart ached for her eldest daughter, she dared not speak out, knowing that if she made even the slightest noise, she would surely attract a brutal beating from Old Lady Mo.
Over time, Mo Yaner became reluctant to come back as well, only returning for Madam Xie’s funeral after she was killed by Auntie Sun.
Now, because she had been reborn, everything had changed slightly.

In her past life, Big Sister Yaner didn’t come back for the Spring Festival this year. But now, since it was the Mo family members having her come to the old residence to cause trouble, it must be someone from the Mo family plotting behind the scenes.
“Big Bull, I’ll go back first; you take your time with the farm tools before heading home,” Chuner said this, making Xuexue anxious as well.
Madam Xie was alone facing a whole pack of wolves from the Mo family, plus her eldest sister had been deceived by them, joining them in opposing their own mother.
So, with a single instruction, Xuexue set off running towards home with all her might.
“Xuexue, slow down, be careful not to fall!” As Xuexue sprinted quickly through the fields, Big Bull was horrified watching from behind and loudly commanded with concern.
Xuexue’s mind was completely focused on Madam Xie; she had no concern for anything else and not only did not slow down, but she also ran even faster towards the old residence with all her strength.
Chuner stood in the field, watching Xuexue’s receding figure with concern. Could her sister handle so many people from the Mo family on her own?
“Big Bull Brother, I can carry these tools. You hurry back to help. I’m afraid they will bully sister,” Chuner turned her head to say to Big Bull. Although she was small and crafty, she knew that the people from the Mo family were afraid of Big Bull, and just his presence would ensure that their mother and sister would be fine.
“What? Someone is bullying Xuexue?” Big Bull was shocked, dropping all the farm tools he was holding.
“Yes, our grandparents and father have all come to our house and made mother cry,” Chuner nodded.
“Is it that fierce old hag from last time?” Big Bull remembered. It was that old hag who, the last time she came in, started viciously berating Madam Xie the moment she entered the door, looking very fierce.
“Mhm! She’s my grandmother, and she’s really mean. Last time, she almost beat me to death,” Chuner recalled her last brush with Lord Yama and still felt terrified at the thought of Old Lady Mo.
Upon hearing this, Big Bull thought that if Xuexue went back by herself, it would be like walking into the lion’s den. That could not be allowed to happen.
“Chuner, I’ll go back first. Can you make it home by yourself?”
“I can, Big Bull Brother, please go quickly,” Chuner was also very anxious.
“Okay,” Big Bull turned and left.
The old residence
With a basket of chickens in her left hand and a bolt of cloth in her right, Old Lady Mo cursed Madam Xie through gritted teeth, “You greedy wretch, Old Master Mo clearly sent over four big fat chickens, yet in just a few days, only one is left. Are you asking for a beating?”
After saying this, she habitually reached for her, then hesitated, not willing to let go of the hard-earned bolt of cloth and had to stop herself. In the end, unable to contain her anger, she kicked out fiercely at Madam Xie, who was looking dejectedly at the ground.
“Ah!”
Madam Xie cried out in pain.
Mo Yaner rushed up to stop Old Lady Mo, “Grandmother, enough. Since mother admits her wrong and is willing to hand over the goods, please don’t hit her anymore.”
