Chapter 133:

However, how could the old lady be willing to go? Old Lady Bai didn’t let go of Zhao Lan’s hand, but Zhao Lan ruthlessly pulled her hand away: “Old Lady Bai, I am stupid, but my mind is not completely clouded. I can still distinguish what is true and false. I know very well why you came and find me. I also know why you want me to go back to the Bai Family. Your words sound very beautiful, but hard to believe.”

Zhao Lan pointed her finger outside the house and added: “You can go and try telling all those words that you said to me to the other villagers. And see if anyone will believe you. Maybe a three-year-old child will.”

Mrs. Liu’s face drastically changed: “Zhao Lan, it seems you can’t differentiate what is right and wrong. Refusing a fine wine only to be forced to drink.”

Zhao Lan coldly sneered: “Then, I will wait to for your fine wine to see what it taste like.”

Old Lady Bai also lost her temper this time, she said with a gloomy face: “Zhao Lan, don’t forget, you are a widow from the Bai Family. You are the wife of my dead son. Your daughter eat our food until she grew up at this age, so what is wrong with you? Now that you have wings, you want to turn your back to the Bai Family?”

Zhao Lan shook her head and replied: “You’re wrong. It is not I, who is turning her back from the Bai Family. When we separated that day, the whole village has witnessed it. Who didn’t see that the Bai Family was so impatient to throw me and my daughter away?”

Zhao Lan thought that when she faced the Bai Family, she would be angry and impulsive like before. But at this moment, she found out that she was surprisingly calm. Perhaps, she had completely accepted the Bai Family as strangers. So right now that they were in front of her, they were merely like passerby.

“Zhao Lan, are you there?” Hu Changlin’s voice sounded outside the house.

Zhao Lan immediately responded: “I am.” Then, she turned her head to face Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu: “You can leave now, you don’t need to come back again. From now on, we are standing on the opposite side of the river, we don’t need to see each other again.”

Hearing those words, Hu Changlin rushed to take a peek inside the house. When he saw Mrs. Liu and Old Lady Bai, Hu Changlin’s face changed, then said: “Didn’t you said you will come back home? How come you are here? What are you two doing here?”

Hu Changlin was holding a big plate in his hand. In the big plate, there were two boiled eggs, bread and a bowl of thick porridge, which smells really good.

Thinking about the situation in their house, the porridge they eat was only a rice soup. The former fried wild vegetable they eat were now only boiled. It doesn’t have any taste at all. They all get hungry in the middle of the night. Their life was very different compared to Zhao Lan’s life now.

The unpleasant feeling Mrs. Liu felt quickly disappeared. She showed a smile on her face instead: “We haven’t had breakfast. We came to eat with Zhao Lan.”

Hu Changlin coldly said: “Who can eat while seeing you two people’s faces? Don’t you want to vomit instead? Just hurry and leave, stop messing around here.”

Old Lady Bai’s face sank, she put her one hand to her hips and pointed her finger to Hu Changlin: “Hu Changlin, you better speak politely. We came here looking for Zhao Lan. We didn’t come here for you. How long we wanted to stay is none of your business.”

Zhao Lan went behind Mrs. Liu and Old Lady Bai and pushed them outside the cabin house. With a *click* sound, the door was locked.

Zhao Lan went close Hu Changlin and said: “Hu Dage, there is something I wanted to say. Let’s go in the front house to talk. Let’s eat while discussing.”
