Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Zi smiled and replied, “She’s just a potential customer for the pastries. If she wants to buy pastries from me, I’ll provide her with excellent service. If she chooses to go to the town to buy them, that’s her personal freedom, and there’s nothing to be concerned about.”

An elderly woman who had been watching from the side came over and added, “You can rest assured, Mrs. Wang is not the type to spend money on pastries in town. The things she said earlier were just to upset you because she couldn’t get any advantage.”

In the past, there were others in the village who had refused Mrs. Wang, and she had used this trick to make people uncomfortable.

Zhang Cuihua, who was playing with Lele nearby, chimed in, “Exactly, I’m sure she won’t go elsewhere to buy cakes.”

Li Zhu’s mother also agreed, saying that Mrs. Wang wouldn’t go to town to buy pastries and might even go back to make trouble for Aunt Yang.

Gu Zi also learned some things from their conversation. In summary, Mrs. Wang was not a docile or well-behaved person. Gu Zi now understood why her mother and sister had strongly recommended Aunt Yang.

On one hand, Aunt Yang came from a respectable background, and her early life had been relatively smooth, making her a fortunate person in many aspects.

On the other hand, her mother and sister wanted to assist Aunt Yang by helping her become a wedding ceremony guide and earn the red envelope money.

Gu Zi continued to listen to their conversation and began to piece together the story of Aunt Yang’s family.

When Mrs. Wang had first married Aunt Yang’s son, Yang Tao, everyone thought she looked decent, but she had a somewhat fierce appearance that gave off a tough impression. However, nobody paid much attention to it at the time.

Over time, Mrs. Wang had started to sow discord between her husband, Yang Tao, and his mother, Aunt Yang. She claimed that Aunt Yang was a woman who had married into a second family and hadn’t saved any money during all these years in her second husband’s household. According to her, Aunt Yang was not a good mother and didn’t deserve respect.

At that time, Aunt Yang’s second husband had passed away due to illness, and Aunt Yang’s daughter from that marriage was still in high school.

Mrs. Wang began to manipulate Yang Tao secretly, encouraging him to plan for the future of this young girl. She discreetly searched for potential in-laws for her, intending to marry her off as soon as she finished high school.

Aunt Yang’s daughter, who resembled a young Aunt Yang, was beautiful and academically inclined. Finding her a suitable match was not difficult, and once she was married, they would receive a generous dowry as her in-laws.

However, Aunt Yang’s daughter was clever and learned about these plans discreetly. Without revealing her knowledge, she confided in her most trusted mother and expressed her desire to go live with her cousin, who was involved in business in another town. She wanted to continue her education and asked Aunt Yang to accompany her.

Aware of her son Yang Tao’s resentment towards her for not saving any money, Aunt Yang also recognized that her daughter-in-law had taken control of the household. Her son now followed her daughter-in-law’s lead in everything.

Aunt Yang was deeply concerned for her daughter’s future. She decided that leaving was the right choice.

She saw that her son and daughter-in-law were not reliable people. Aunt Yang was deeply concerned about her grandson, Yuan Yuan, and didn’t want him to suffer. Despite her advanced age, she was willing to endure hardships and fatigue, but she couldn’t bear to see her grandchild in misery.

Aunt Yang secretly saved up some travel money for her daughter, who would leave after graduating from high school. Aunt Yang stayed behind to take care of her son, daughter-in-law, and grandson, working tirelessly as a servant in her own home.

The scheming plan of Yang Tao and Mrs. Wang to profit from marrying off

Aunt Yang’s daughter fell apart, leading them to treat Aunt Yang even worse.

Every meal and household chore was assigned to Aunt Yang, and whenever Mrs. Wang and Yang Tao argued, Aunt Yang became the target of their frustration.

Mrs. Wang frequently lost her temper and hurled insults, often using malicious and repulsive language against Aunt Yang. Outsiders shook their heads in disapproval.

At first, Aunt Yang resisted her son and daughter-in-law’s excessive demands, but over the years, her temperament was worn down by their constant pressure.

Even more shocking was that every time Yang Tao went out to work, Mrs.

Wang would openly bring her former lovers and acquaintances from outside the village into their home to sleep together. She also had intimate relations with men from the village and the town.

Most of the men Mrs. Wang brought home were her former lovers, and she felt that the money Yang Tao provided was insufficient. She claimed that she wanted to earn her own money and used her looks, makeup skills, and some tricks to win money by mingling with other men in card games and other activities.

As a result, many men supported her, and the other villagers dared not speak out against her. Aunt Yang, on the other hand, was subjected to frequent verbal abuse from the wild men Mrs. Wang brought home..
