It turned out that these two people were not outsiders, but the original owner's two cousins, that is, the children born to his uncle Xu Qinghai and his aunt Wang.

The burly one is the eldest brother, Xu Wenlin, who is twenty years old. The second brother is Xu Yuyang, who is eighteen years old. There is also the third brother, Xu Wenshan, who did not come over for some reason.

Wang had been badly injured by Yuxiu before, and her sons would never let it go now that they were back. They brought the Xu family here, on the one hand to deal with Yuxiu to vent Wang's anger, and on the other hand, the rich family had finally found someone with a suitable horoscope, and had told them that if they brought the person over, they would not only be given a bag of coarse grains, but also an extra piece of dried meat.

This was a great temptation for the Xu family, who had already run out of food, so no matter what the purpose was, everyone had to bring the person back.

"You damn bitch, what has possessed you today? You even dared to attack your own elders, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning..."

Old Mrs. Qin was supported by Xu Guihua and Xu Taohua on her left and right. When she saw her two precious grandsons being knocked to the ground by Yuxiu, she felt pain and anger, and immediately pointed at her and started cursing.

"Big girl, look at how angry your grandma is. How can you talk back to your elders like this?"

A middle-aged man came out, stretched out his hands to help Xu Wenfeng and his brother up. The look he gave Yuxiu was like a sharp knife, chilling cold air.

"If you are sensible, come here and kowtow to your grandma to apologize, and listen to the elders in the future. Otherwise, our Xu family may not tolerate an unfilial person like you."

He looked so righteous that Yuxiu almost laughed out of anger.

What do you mean by kowtow and apologize?

What crime has she committed?

It is obviously these people who are guilty. If all else fails, all the Xu family members should kowtow and apologize to Xu Yuxiu.

Besides, he had to be a sensible person and listen to his elders, so he had no choice but to die obediently and then be sent away to be married off to the underworld in exchange for food for the Xu family.

"Bah! I didn't expect you to be so ugly yet think you're beautiful!"

Yuxiu carried the wooden stick on her shoulder and gave a mocking smile to the people over there.

"Stop talking nonsense. If you have the guts, come at me together. I know you, but the stick in my hand doesn't know you!"

Today, all the people came in full force. The middle-aged man from the first house, Xu Qinghai, and the Xu Wenlin brothers came.

Xu Qingjiang from the third room looked a little thin. He and his wife Gao were hiding behind the crowd, peeking inside. Beside them were the siblings Xu Wenfeng and Xu Yuzhu, who were also hiding beside their parents like quails.

Together with Old Lady Qin and her two daughters, there were a total of more than ten people, young and old, who seemed determined to capture Yuxiu and her daughter. They would not stop until they brought them back to exchange for food.

"If you want to take Yuxiu away, you have to ask me, your mother, for my consent first!"

Seeing that her usually timid daughter had become strong, Cui also stood beside Yuxiu with a hoe in hand, pretending to protect her.

Before, she had fantasized about Xu Qinghe coming back to take charge of them, but now that hope was gone, she had to learn to be strong. She couldn't always hide behind her daughter.

"Yeah……"

Old Lady Qin pointed at Cui with a trembling finger, as if she had seen through her, and cursed her in a sarcastic tone.

"I've long seen that you're a restless woman. Now that my poor son has just passed away, you're taking this damn girl to go against the elders. If I had known this would happen, I should have kicked you and your son out. Whether you die of hunger or thirst, it's all your own fault."

Xu Guihua and Xu Taohua also chimed in, accusing Cui of being unfilial to her elders and asking her to quickly apologize to Old Lady Qin and admit her mistake.

"In that case, you should separate us now."

Cui was also angry. When she heard Old Lady Qin say that Xu Qinghe had passed away, and she seemed so calm and unconcerned, Cui felt as if someone was slowly cutting her heart with a knife. She was in so much pain that she almost couldn't breathe.

"As long as you separate my mother and me from this family, then our life or death will have nothing to do with you. Even if we are about to die of starvation or thirst, we will never come to your Xu family's door to beg for a sip of water."

Cui didn't have much confidence in her heart, but now that she had escaped from the famine in Xujia Village, everyone would have to find food on their own ability. Even if she had to beg on the street, she would find a way to protect her daughter. It would be easier than staying in the Xu family, a den of tigers and wolves that eat people without leaving any bones.

"Hey...could it be that my second sister-in-law has a strange man outside?"

When everyone heard that Cui was going to separate from the family, they were all in disbelief. Suddenly, they heard this weird voice, and everyone was shocked. They all turned their eyes to Gao who was speaking.

"Old Third Wife, when you say this, do you know something?"

Old Mrs. Qin's face darkened. In this era, if a woman had a bad reputation, the whole family would be laughed at. Although they had left Xujia Village now, they all had to flee the famine together. Now they had a dispute here, and the few dilapidated houses in the distance were already crowded with people watching the fun, all looking at the farce here with shining eyes.

"I……"

Gao was just speaking casually, so she didn't know anything. At this moment, she suddenly remembered that she had a daughter at home. If Cui's reputation was ruined, it would very likely implicate the Xu family and bring bad reputation to her daughter.

"Well, that's not the case, but if my second sister-in-law didn't have any...why would she be so eager to leave home and live on her own right after her husband left?"

Gao had long held a grudge against Cui because among the three daughters-in-law of the Xu family, she and Wang were not as good as Cui from the second house in terms of strength or appearance.

If they had not all given birth to boys, and Cui had only had this one girl, this woman would have dared to stand over their heads and act like a spoiled child. Now that she has the chance to step on Cui, she will of course grab it.

Anyway, there is no evidence to support this statement. She just said it casually. If Old Lady Qin really believed it, then it’s not her fault.

Gao was still feeling proud of her own little trick when she felt something coming towards her with a whistling sound. She had no time to dodge and was hit directly by the thing.

“Ah! It hurts so much… wuwuwu…”
