Another villager saw her red eyes and laughed, “Qian Duotian’s wife, look at your red eyes. Why don’t you ask Duotian to hunt some prey for you too?” Qian Duotian of the Qian Zhang family was right there.
Qian Zhang’s wife snorted disdainfully and glanced at her husband, “Duotian can’t hunt. If he goes up the mountain, he’d be lucky if the prey doesn’t bite him. ”
Qian Duotian wasn’t a coward, “You bitch, why do you want Dashan’s prey?
Qian Zhang’s wife was no pushover, she put her hands on her hips and scolded him, “I was blind when I married into your Qian family. ‘Qian Duotian,’ how many acres of land does your family have? Your folks, your grandparents, your lazy third brother, and even your married sister who keeps coming back for free meals — all have to be fed by you, and all you have is five acres of farmland and three acres of other land. Is that enough?”
“My family only has that much land, have I starved you or made you thirsty? Isn’t it enough to live by?” Qian Duotian pointed at her nose and scolded, “To think the matchmaker said you were beautiful and fair-skinned before the wedding. Who would have known your face would be covered in spots? You’re almost as ugly as that Xiao Family’s ugly daughter-in-law! Marrying you was a huge loss for me!”
Qian Zhang’s wife shouted back, “How dare you, Qian Duotian, to compare me with that hideously ugly woman from the Xiao Family? Even if I am ugly, I look ten or a hundred times better than her!”
A nearby villager, Qian Youfa, laughed. Although he shared the same last name, he was not part of Qian Duotian’s family. Otherwise, marrying such a wife would be the death of him, “Duotian, your wife is right. Even if she’s ugly, she looks much better than Dashan’s wife.”
“See, even Youfa agrees.” Qian Zhang’s wife was about to be smug but then realized he said something wrong, she angrily said, “Qian Youfa, what do you mean by ‘even if she’s ugly’? In what way am I ugly?”
“Alright, alright!” Qian Youfa didn’t want to bother arguing with her. Everyone knew that Qian Zhang’s wife was narrow-minded, “You’re not ugly, okay?”
“That’s right.” Qian Zhang’s wife shamelessly agreed, “Compared to the woman from the Xiao Family, I am a great beauty!”
“You a great beauty? I wouldn’t throw up!” Qian Duotian didn’t give his wife any face. She had just ridiculed him for not knowing how to hunt and being useless in front of the villagers, “In the whole village, only you and the Xiao Family’s ugly woman can be compared. While others compare beauty, you’re comparing ugliness. Besides being better-looking than the Xiao Family’s daughter-in-law, which wife or girl in the village isn’t better-looking than you?”
“Qian Duotian, are you asking for death? You think you’re so good-looking? You have nothing but rotten teeth!” Qian Zhang’s wife was so angry she pushed him.
Being pushed in front of everyone, Qian Duotian immediately got angry and slapped her back.
The slap was so loud that Qian Zhang’s wife was stunned. She snapped back to reality, sat on the ground, and began wailing and shouting, “Qian Duotian, you useless man! I follow you eating nothing but chaff and vegetables, can’t even afford a box of rouge, work tirelessly to give birth to children and manage housework. But you complain I’m ugly and hit me. Why don’t you marry Xiao Family’s ugly woman? Are you deserving of me? You only deserve the ugly daughter-in-law from the Xiao Family! ”
Xiao Yishan usually kept to himself and didn’t want to engage with others, but who knew that the couple from the Qian family would single out his family,
