From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!-Chapter 830 - 826: Blisters All Over Her Hands (Second Update)
"What do you want to know? The events happened just like that, what else do you want?" Mrs. Lin said angrily.
Mu Shuangshuang glanced at Mrs. Lin and turned to ask Huang Bita.
"Big sister-in-law, what’s really going on here? Explain clearly to Grandpa and Grandma!
Don’t worry, Grandpa and Grandma are reasonable people. If it’s not your fault, they won’t blame you, right, Grandpa?" Mu Shuangshuang turned to ask Mr. Mu.
Mr. Mu was startled and then nodded, but his face was full of embarrassment.
Mr. Mu wouldn’t intervene in women’s affairs unless things got too out of hand.
Moreover, it’s only natural for a mother-in-law to discipline her daughter-in-law.
Similarly, Mrs. Lin disciplining Huang Bita wouldn’t even be questioned by Old Mrs. Mu.
As a father-in-law, he certainly shouldn’t say anything.
But now he was in a bind, having been singled out by Mu Shuangshuang, Mr. Mu had to make a statement.
Even so, Huang Bita was still afraid to look at Mrs. Lin.
Her expression was one of endurance, full of anguish.
"Bita, listen to Shuangshuang, we’re all here, we definitely won’t let you be wronged!"
Mu Dalang fully trusted Huang Bita, not to mention she didn’t do it; he would seek justice for her even if she had.
"I..." Huang Bita looked at Mu Dalang, moved.
For a woman, the greatest happiness isn’t her man believing in her?
As long as Mu Dalang was willing to face it with her, she feared nothing.
Huang Bita opened her mouth and said, "Just now, I was stir-frying in the kitchen, and Mother called me to pour tea for Auntie, I was cooking, I asked Mother to wait a bit, but then... Mother went into the kitchen.
Mother was calling so urgently that I had to do as she said, but when I went out, I asked her to watch the fire, about the remaining part, I don’t know."
As soon as Huang Bita finished speaking, Mrs. Lin shouted excitedly.
"Don’t throw dirt on my name, clearly you didn’t speak up yourself, as a daughter-in-law, how dare you talk back to your mother-in-law!"
Mrs. Lin jumped up wanting to hit someone, Huang Bita backed away in fear, Mu Dalang stepped forward to help her, accidentally bumping her wrist.
Huang Bita gasped in pain.
Mu Dalang hurriedly pulled at the sleeve on Huang Bita’s wrist.
"Ah..." Huang Bita exclaimed.
In the air, Huang Bita’s scalded, blistered wrist was exposed to everyone.
Mu Dalang was stunned, looking at Huang Bita’s wrist, he shouted, "Who did this? Who?"
Mrs. Lin’s face turned pale with fear.
She knew her son’s character all too well; if he found out this was her doing, she couldn’t imagine how he’d react.
Huang Bita quickly shook her head, "It was me, I was careless myself... nobody else is to blame!"
"Big sister-in-law, why speak for your mother-in-law, who pushed you to the ground!
Aren’t those blisters on your wrist her doing?" Mu Xianxian seized the opportunity, speaking with a mocking tone.
"Mother, you’ve gone too far!" Mu Dalang said to Mrs. Lin, pulling Huang Bita towards the third branch.
He intended to wash Huang Bita’s wound with cold water.
With Huang Bita and Mu Dalang gone, everything naturally fell on Mrs. Lin’s shoulders.
Old Mrs. Mu glared at Mrs. Lin with a fierce look, and before Mrs. Lin could react, two slaps sent her tumbling to the ground.
In the Old Mu Family’s courtyard, Mrs. Lin’s cries for mercy were heard.
"Mother, I didn’t mean it, I didn’t know the fire in the stove would turn out like that, I know I was wrong, please forgive me..."
Mu Xianxian watched excitedly from the side, shouting, "Mother, well done, burn our kitchen!
Let her disrespect her elders, clearly making mistakes and blaming others!"
Old Mrs. Mu got more vigorous with each hit, the noises in the yard grew louder.
Mu Shuangshuang found it harsh, pulling Mu Dashan to return home.
Mr. Mu noticed and quickly called Mu Shuangshuang: "Shuangshuang, we’ll get someone to make a kitchen tomorrow, can we borrow the third branch’s kitchen for now?"
Without knowing from when, Mr. Mu habitually thought Mu Shuangshuang was the decision-maker of the Old Mu Family, not Mu Dashan.
Mu Shuangshuang frowned, it’s understandable to borrow the kitchen, but Mrs. Lin is too jealous, she might steal things from her kitchen.
Seeing Mu Shuangshuang frown, Mr. Mu added, "Don’t worry, we still have everything in Grandma’s room, we’ll use it separately!"
Mu Shuangshuang nodded at last.
It’s not that she’s stingy but really has no feelings for the Old Mu Family. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
It was a minor issue, but it got so escalated, even burning a kitchen; if someone had gone in earlier to put out the fire, how big could it be?
"Then tonight..." Mr. Mu asked.
"The third branch’s meal is ready, Grandpa can come over to cook anytime."
Mu Shuangshuang returned to the third branch, asking Yu Si Niang to clear out the kitchen.
Valuables were all moved to her own room, and the dining table was moved to Mu Dashan’s room.
In the kitchen, Mu Dalang’s eyes were red, helping Huang Bita to rinse the burn with cold water, Huang Bita softly hissed and then gripped her uninjured part tightly in his hand.
"It’s all my fault, if I hadn’t gone out..." Mu Dalang was full of self-blame.
"It’s okay, just a burn, it’s not a big deal." Huang Bita smiled, trying to look as if nothing was wrong.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you’d better go eat first, after dinner, go to Grandpa Zhang’s to get some burn ointment, help sister-in-law puncture the blisters on her wrist."
Mu Shuangshuang couldn’t bear to break the harmonious moment.
But if she didn’t speak, they’d catch the Old Mu Family coming to cook.
Mu Shuangshuang suspected that tonight would be Mrs. Lin cooking.
After all, Mrs. Lin made such a big mistake.
Mu Shuangshuang called for dinner, but Huang Bita didn’t react immediately.
She glanced at Mu Dalang, wanting to see what he thought.
"It’s your first day as a bride in the Old Mu Family, we should celebrate, she made many dishes.
Also, I bought a lot of good things for you in town, later go to Shuangshuang’s room to get them, as for food you come to Shuangshuang’s place to eat every day, I’ve already spoken to her."
To be honest, Huang Bita in the Old Mu Family really felt like she was sneaking.
One can hardly deal with Old Mrs. Mu, and now there’s Mrs. Lin too.
Being a daughter-in-law isn’t an easy task.
Thankfully, Mu Shuangshuang was willing to help them.
"Hmm!"
Dinner had fish and meat, both to welcome Huang Bita over and to celebrate the third branch’s tavern opening early.
