Then they laid Yuehong’s dowry blanket and other bedding on the bed. They even laid out new face towels.

Yuehong stood by watching and stomped her feet anxiously.

In the courtyard, Wunian instructed Tian Zhuangzhu, “Old Master, shut the courtyard door. Let’s go in!”

Tian Zhuangzhu did not dare to disobey. Afraid that the sound would come again, he quickly shut the courtyard door and followed behind Wunian.

When they entered the main residence, Wunian saw that Madam Liu and Madam Ma had already moved the two elders’ belongings to the storeroom within the house. They had also laid out a new blanket on the bed. The room was neatly decorated. Wunian glanced around. It seemed acceptable.

Madam Wang could not take it anymore. “You b*tch, how dare you move me into the storeroom? I’ll beat you up…”

“Why? Does Madam Wang want to hit me again?”

Now, what Madam Wang heard was different from what Tian Zhuangzhu and the others heard. When Madam Wang heard Wunian’s voice, it was as if it was a whip scourging Madam Wang’s soul. Every word was like a lashing and it made Madam Wang’s body and soul tremble. She was like a little beast that had been beaten up and no longer dared to make a sound.

Seeing that they were all behaving well, Wunian nodded and said, “It’s a happy occasion that we sisters are back today. If anyone asks tomorrow, tell them that I’ve come back to acknowledge my family after surviving a calamity. My sister has been redeemed from her buyer’s family and is no longer a slave. She’s now free.”

Wunian stopped talking and looked at Madam Wang. “Get me a cup of tea.”

Madam Wang quickly did as she was told.

Wunian looked at everyone present and asked, “Where are Weichun and Weihong?”

Tian Zhuangzhu replied, “They’re studying in the county city.”

After Madam Wang poured the tea she went to stand next to Tian Zhuangzhu.

Wunian picked up the teacup and played with it without drinking it. However, she said indifferently, “If someone spouts nonsense to outsiders and says something that they shouldn’t, I’ll make them suffer a hundred times more than now!”

Other than Juxiang, everyone present was sharing the same experience as Madam Wang whenever Wunian spoke. Her every word was like a whip that scourged their souls and the whipping made them tremble. All of them knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Still playing with her blanket, Wunian said nonchalantly, “Get up then! Whether or not I spare you will depend on your performance!

“I’m hungry. Madam Liu and Madam Ma, go and prepare some food! If you should be harboring any thoughts that you shouldn’t have, I’ll make sure that you’ll live wishing you were dead.”

Everyone present assured her that they wouldn’t dare to.

“Disperse!”

They all went back to their own residences.

Madam Liu and Madam Ma entered the kitchen. Madam Wang was afraid that Wunian would see her, so she followed them to the kitchen.

When Madam Ma saw that Madam Wang had also come to the kitchen, she went forward and said, “Mother, I’m so scared!”

Madam Liu chimed in, “That’s right! I was also scared to death!”

Madam Wang said in her usual uncouth manner, “That b*tch Wunian, she’s grown so bold…” Before she could continue, Madam Wang’s soul was whipped. She fell to her knees facing the direction of Wunian, and kowtowed in terror, saying, “I was wrong. Please forgive me this time! I was wrong.”

As she kowtowed and apologized again and again, Madam Wang slowly calmed down.

Then she got onto her feet without saying another word to the two of them and walked straight to the stove to start the fire.

Madam Liu and Madam Ma also realized the reality of the situation. Even if Wunian was not around, they could not scold her. The two of them stopped talking, lowered their heads and went about their chores.

Juxiang gave her sister a thumbs up. “My little sister is amazing.”

Wunian laughed. “Big Sister, you have to learn too. I want them to be respectful to me and also to you.

There’s no need to say too much to them, just give the order.”

Juxiang nodded. “Okay, I got it!”

Soon, a spread of dishes was served up. It looked mediocre, but to Juxiang, it was considerably good.

Wunian said to them, “You all may leave now! I don’t like others watching me eat!”

Hence, everyone left. Wunian looked at the spread of dishes and said to Juxiang, “Big Sister, don’t we still have leftovers from lunch? Serve up two dishes.”

“How do I serve them?”

“Go in with your consciousness and serve whatever you wish!”

“Oh.” Then, Juxiang did as Wunian said. Suddenly, two dishes appeared on the table.

Wunian praised, “Not bad. Big Sister is very powerful.”

“Little Sister is a good teacher!”

The two of them chatted and laughed as they ate. After eating for a long time, Wunian placed her bowl and chopsticks down and got onto her feet. She said to Juxiang, “Sister, once you’re done eating, just get them to clean up the dining table. Have them bring the rest to the kitchen to eat. They’re not to waste it.”
