Suddenly, he began to regret his past decisions. Perhaps he really should have listened to his wife and not married this second daughter-in-law just to repay a favor.

Meanwhile, the young couple had no idea of the tumultuous thoughts churning inside Old Man Li’s head. They laughed and joked as they finished their breakfast. In the midst of it, Li Hongjun finally remembered to report to his wife the information he had gathered the day before.

This Xue Dame was not a native of Taoshu Village; she had remarried and moved here a few years ago. At that time, she brought along two sons and a daughter, and married into a family that also had two sons. After she arrived, the children from both sides did not see eye to eye, and while they managed to keep up appearances, they fought fiercely in secret.

Fortunately, Xue Dame was able to have another son after she arrived, which helped life carry on.

But it seemed Xue Dame might just have tough luck, for not many years after the birth of her youngest son, her husband passed away, leaving her a widow once again.

The conflicts among the children then moved from behind the scenes to the open as they fought over their father’s inheritance.

During that time, the villagers of Taoshu Village were truly entertained by the spectacle for many days. In the end, because of her youngest son, Xue Dame managed to keep the house and secured a place to stay in Taoshu Village.

Unlike the village women who would cry, make a scene, or threaten to hang themselves at the drop of a hat, she was organized and efficient in her work.
