The little girl wiped the tears from her cheeks and the moment she looked up, she saw her mother Xu Liyun walking slowly towards her. Her figure was like the warmest light in the morning light.

"Why are you up so early? Why are you running into the kitchen alone instead of going to bed?"

Xu Liyun's words were gentle and slightly reproachful, and she hugged her daughter in her arms.

The little girl snuggled tightly in her mother's warm embrace, her voice trembling slightly with a hint of tears: "I want to make breakfast for my parents and boil some hot water. Everyone fell into the river last night. Drinking hot water will make it less likely to get sick."

Xu Liyun gently smoothed her daughter's messy hair that was wet with sweat and tears, and carefully pulled open the little girl's loose sleeves, only to see a shocking bruise on her jade-white arm.

The scar stood out against her fair skin, making Xu Liyun, who already felt sorry for her daughter, even angrier.

She turned around and kicked Old Lady Zhang, who was still wailing on the ground: "I warned you not to touch my daughter, but it seems that you have really forgotten the pain now that the wound has healed."

The kick made Old Mrs. Zhang's body sway, her neck shrank reflexively, her eyes dodged, and she dared not look Xu Liyun in the face again.

In fact, the warning was not completely forgotten. It was just that when he entered the kitchen early in the morning and saw Xiao You Niang busy as usual, he mistakenly thought that everything was the same. In addition, there was no one around, and the resentment and dissatisfaction in his heart was like a bursting dam.

Xu Liyun smiled coldly, turned around and strode out of the kitchen. Before leaving, she turned back and told her daughter, "Stand here and wait for me. I'll go get justice for you."

The little girl stood there obediently, her two little hands nervously grasping the corners of her clothes.

Since the queen asked her to wait here, she obeyed obediently and stood motionless in the middle of the yard.

Xu Liyun turned around suddenly, and at that moment, her sleeves seemed to create a gust of wind that could not be ignored. She had an axe that was sharpened to a bright razor in her hand.

She walked into the kitchen with firm steps and quickly pulled Mrs. Zhang up in an instant.

Then, she held Mrs. Zhang's hand tightly and walked along the narrow corridor straight to the room where the old couple usually rested.

Last night, they occupied the eldest brother's spacious house, forcing Hu Cuimei to hold the sleeping eldest child in her arms and squeeze into one bed with the elderly Mrs. Zhang.

Zhang Fu and Zhang Lao Da were in the woodshed, sleeping on straw mats and enduring the bites of mosquitoes.

When they woke up in the morning, they both felt sore all over.

Xu Liyun pushed the door as fast as lightning. The sound of the door hitting the wall was deafening, which startled Hu Cuimei and Dawa on the bed and they sat up suddenly as if by reflex.

Before they could fully wake up, Xu Liyun was already waving the hatchet in her hand. No matter whether it was tables, chairs or cabinets, all the furniture could not escape the sudden storm and turned into pieces.

In particular, the big wooden bed that had accompanied the old couple through countless years, now made a heavy whine and finally collapsed under Xu Liyun's continuous and fierce chopping.

Hu Cuimei and Dawa were already stunned by this horrifying scene. They huddled in the corner, helplessly leaning against each other. Even their cries for help seemed to be strangled by fear, for they were afraid that they would become the next target.

Seeing this, even though Old Lady Zhang was unwilling, she still struggled to stop it.

But how could her weak body withstand Xu Liyun's anger and strength at that moment? She was pushed away in a moment and fell to the ground. She could only weakly slap the floor with her hands, tears streaming down her face, muttering to herself, complaining about the injustice of fate to her.

Xu Liyunfang had a satisfied smile on her face. She looked at Old Lady Zhang with a stern and complicated look in her eyes and said slowly, "Mother, I've told you before that no one can bully my daughter. Even if this time is over, if you touch my daughter again next time, I can't guarantee whether the knife will fall on objects or people."

These words were as cold as ice in winter, making everyone present shiver uncontrollably. Old Mrs. Zhang was so frightened that she even cried cautiously, and she nodded repeatedly with a trembling voice.

Xu Liyun knew very well that this family's stubbornness could not be easily changed, and it would probably take many profound lessons for them to remember it.

But she was not afraid, because she had plenty of time and patience, enough to deal with them slowly until everything returned to normal.

She said in a slightly more relaxed tone, with a hint of joking, "Mother, sister-in-law, young mother and I are all hungry, go and prepare the meal. You know, when I'm unhappy, I like to make trouble. If I can't have dinner within half an hour, I can't guarantee that I won't cause another 'little farce'."

As soon as these words came out, the old lady and Hu Cuimei's bodies were shaken again. They hurried to the kitchen, and replied as they ran: "I'll do it right away, it will be ready right away!"

Little You Niang stood in the yard, listening to the noises coming from the house. She opened her eyes wide with curiosity and looked inside quietly.

What she saw was that her grandmother, who used to be the most authoritative person in the family, was now sitting on the ground crying and accusing others, while her mother, who had always been gentle but resolute, was holding a hatchet in her hand with great momentum.

The young heart couldn't help but add a little more admiration for his mother - mother was indeed the bravest and strongest person in the Zhang family.

Soon, when Xu Liyun solved all the problems, she walked out of the room and came to the little girl. The little girl almost jumped into her mother's warm embrace with joy. Her bright eyes were filled with endless admiration: "Mom is really amazing, much more amazing than the heroes in storybooks!"

Although Xiao Youniang had never received formal education, her intelligence enabled her to learn a lot of wisdom and vocabulary beyond her age from Zhou Xiucai, a wise man in the village.

Unfortunately, her young mind was unable to grasp Zhou Xiucai's elegant and delicate words of compliment, and she could only simply use the word "awesome" to express her endless admiration and respect for her mother.

But Xu Liyun felt warm in her heart. She lifted the baby up high with a smile on her face, and then took it safely back into her arms.

"Okay, let's go wake up Daddy and my brothers and sisters and start a new day. After washing up, let's share breakfast!"

The laughter of the mother and daughter spread across the courtyard in the early morning, and almost all the sleeping family members were awakened by the warmth.

Zhang Laoer quickly led his two children to get ready. After they were dressed neatly, they pushed open the door and walked in.

As for the woodshed next to the kitchen and the family of four in the third room, they were already trembling with fear over the series of excitement. They didn't dare to breathe, fearing that after Xu Liyun resolved the trouble with the old lady, the next target would be their nest.
