Chapter 461 - 459: Reluctant Heart
The sister-in-law of the Song family’s eyes flickered before she slapped her thigh, "Good heavens, such a calamity! Today is supposed to be my sister-in-law’s big day, and now she’s beaten up like this. How on earth is she going to face anyone later? Isn’t this going to ruin our family’s fine match?"
"Shut your damn mouth! Song Chunhua’s gone completely mad, chopping at anyone she sees. If it wasn’t for my daughter’s quick reaction to stop her, do you think your sister-in-law would even be getting married today? She’d be thrown straight into jail! Trying to frame the Old Wang Family? Don’t get ahead of yourself! A family of useless men and shameless women, mouth off one more time, and I’ll rip your mouth to shreds!" Old Granny Zhang was initially startled when Song Chunhua charged at her with a knife.
Upon hearing the words of the Song Family’s sister-in-law, Old Granny Zhang immediately cast aside her fear from earlier, planting her hands on her hips and starting to argue with her.
The eldest of the Song family finally grasped the gravity of the situation. Today was the day Old Master Zhao was coming to fetch the bride. What if he arrived to find everything in disarray and got angry, putting the rest of the silver in jeopardy?
The Wang Family was not to be trifled with these days. They were involved in the mountain goods trade, and no one in the village dared to offend them lightly, let alone Old Granny Zhang, who was not someone to cross. If, in her fury, she exposed all their family secrets in front of Old Master Zhao, there would be trouble.
They had just managed to sell their sister Song Chunhua—what if the deal fell through? Where else would they find a fool as big as Old Master Zhao?
He glared at his wife, "What day is it today? Why are you still here gossiping? Haven’t you brought her inside to change and dress up? They will be here soon to fetch her..."
Hearing her husband say this, the Song Family’s sister-in-law, though reluctant, huffed and, together with the second sister-in-law of the Song family, approached Song Chunhua. Pretending to help her up, she viciously pinched Song Chunhua’s armpits forcefully.
With her wrists already throbbing with pain, Song Chunhua trembled all over from the pinch under her arms and gazed up at her sisters-in-law through teary eyes—one impatient and the other with ill intent.
