Chapter 52 - Packing Up

Shen Yijia’s hair was still dripping with water. She wiped her hair with a towel and walked straight to Song Jingchen’s side.

Just now, she heard Madam Liu say that blood was thicker than water. She also said that the blood of the Song family flowed in them. She had already guessed that the person was from the old residence.

She was curious why the two of them were here, didn’t they already cut ties? She asked, “Why are they here?”

Song Jingchen frowned when he saw her expression. He didn’t hide his inner thoughts and said frankly, “She probably wants to take your boar meat.”

Shen Yijia’s almond-shaped eyes widened. These people had crossed the line. Song Jingchen added, “And your silver.”

Shen Yijia gritted her teeth and glared at Madam Liu and her daughter-in-law.

The two of them were quite thick-skinned, but upon hearing Song Jingchen’s words, they still felt a little embarrassed.

Unable to pretend anymore, she said angrily, “Eldest Nephew, how can you say that? Isn’t it only right for a family to help each other?”

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes and stuffed her towel into Song Jingchen’s arms. She placed her hands on her hips and said disdainfully, “What family? Aren’t we no longer family? Why are you so thick-skinned? You only claim that we’re family when you want something from us. Where was this solidarity when we got excommunicated?”

Not long ago, these people even joined forces with their clansmen to chase them out, but now, they had the audacity to ask her for something.

Shen Yijia sized up Madam Liu. She was indeed shameless.

She didn’t want to waste her breath on them. She picked up the machete from earlier and prepared to chase them away. “Go, go, go. You won’t be able to find any family members here. Look elsewhere!”

Madam Liu was shocked. She saw that Shen Yijia was just a skinny little girl. How could she have the guts to kill someone when she had such skinny arms and legs?

She was no longer afraid. She grabbed Little Madam Liu’s arm, and cursed this useless brat in her heart.

She said at the top of her lungs, “Even if I didn’t come today, you should have taken the initiative to send the meat and silver to my house. Don’t forget that my father-in-law died early because his legs were broken by Song Daniu. This is what your family owes us.”

She recalled how Song Dahai hated the Song family in the capital when he died. He hated them to his last breath.

Madam Liu shuddered upon remembering the past.

She suddenly glanced at Song Jingchen’s legs and sneered at Madam Li. “I think this is retribution. Back then, your family broke my father-in-law’s legs, so this is retribution on your son. You should pray that your son doesn’t die early like my father-in-law…”

Before Madam Liu could finish speaking, she heard a whoosh above her head. She felt her head get lighter and a chill ran down her spine.

Before she could react, Little Madam Liu screamed, “Ah… Murderer! Murderer…”

Madam Liu turned around and saw that the machete that Shen Yijia had been holding was nailed to the wall close to her.

Dazed, she touched her head. All she could feel was her bare scalp. Her vision went dark and she almost fainted.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips. How dare they come to her house to snatch her things? She walked towards the two women.

The two of them were so frightened that they pulled at each other and staggered out. They kept shouting that Shen Yijia was a murderer.

Shen Yijia ignored them and picked up the machete.

Madam Liu, who was about to curse, quickly shut her mouth. She turned around and saw An Dong and the twins.

Madam Liu felt embarrassed and yelled angrily in Shen Yijia’s direction, “Don’t think that we don’t know where you got this meat from. You’re a shameless piece of trash. Only your family can eat it.”

After saying that, she was afraid that Shen Yijia would chase after them, so she pulled Little Madam Liu and ran.
