Chapter 1032: Chapter 1032: Creating Something from Nothing 1

Feng Qingxue’s eldest sister-in-law, Zhao Guihua, was in a fight with her second sister-in-law, Li Guohong. They grappled with each other’s hair, tore at clothes, and rolled on the ground. Zhao got on top and slapped Li across the face, while Li managed to flip over and started pounding Zhao’s face with her fists.

Covered in dust, their faces tensed with fury, both of their faces were swollen and bruised, a complete mess.

At the same time, they cursed each other with all the vile words that they could think of, a never-ending torrent of abuse.

"That’ll teach you to steal my meat, to steal my meat, why didn’t you choke to death, you damn cur!" Zhao Guihua, with a larger frame that made her appear burly even though she was lean, sat on top of Li Guohong, continuously thumped a fist on her face.

Li Guohong’s nose began to bleed from the hits, the blood mixing with tears and snot into a ghastly mess.

"Stop, stop hitting me!" Li Guohong screamed and pleaded for mercy.

"Dream on! You ate my meat and think you can get away with it just like that? No way! Li Guohong, Li Guohong, I have never wronged you, but you steal the meat from my house, has your conscience been eaten by a dog? Why won’t you choke!"

Li Guohong, mustering a burst of ferocity, finally gained the upper hand and pushed Zhao Guihua off herself.

Then, she got up and took off running as fast as she could.

Zhao Guihua, with her long arms and legs, reached out and grabbed Li Guohong’s ankle and yanked hard. Li Guohong fell with a thud, her body heavy as Zhao pressed down on her again.

"That’ll teach you to steal my meat, teach you to steal my meat, how come your wretched lover hasn’t died childless!"

The back-and-forth was entirely about the meat.

As the argument escalated, Zhao Guihua kept monopolizing the conversation, listing all of Li Guohong’s transgressions, "Thief, you are nothing but a thieving woman, worse than a prostitute, stealing things and men! Don’t think I don’t know you stole the cabbages from Uncle Er’s house! Don’t think I don’t know about the garlic you stole from Hongling’s home! Don’t think I don’t know about you letting those old bachelors get close in exchange for a few bites of food! The food you’ve stolen and swindled, how can you not feel disgusted by it? You rotter! Slut! Whore! For stealing my meat!"

Li Guohong struggled desperately, pressing her hand against her nose to stop the blood flow and roaring in a muffled voice, "Zhao Guihua, what nonsense are you spouting? Who frames people like this? If my son hadn’t been sick, crying and begging for meat, and only your house had some, would I have resorted to taking it secretly after you refused to lend me any? I said I’d pay you back later!"

"Stealing is stealing, what do you mean ’took it secretly’? No matter how you spin it, Li Guohong, you cannot remove the ’thief’ label from yourself!" Zhao Guihua, infuriated, smacked her across the face and shouted, "Your son wants meat; you find a way to get it. Why does coming to my house to steal make any sense? The city sells meat; go buy some. Pork heads don’t require tickets; if I can buy it, can’t you? Isn’t it just because you’re gluttonous and don’t want to spend money? We bought a bit of meat to replenish ourselves during the busy farming season, and I would have been angry even if you had stolen a small piece, but you took the whole pork head from my house!"

As Zhao Guihua spoke, she pinned Li Guohong down firmly, preventing her from escaping, and appealed to the onlookers, "Everyone, you be the judges, am I right or not? Sure, if we’re talking about being sneaky, a hundred of me couldn’t match one Li Guohong. How many times has she badmouthed me behind my back, huh? Could I ever be as malicious as her? She was the one who suggested marrying Xiaoxue off to a bachelor!"
