Chapter 1447: This is truly killing me

Zhang Lianhua heard the commotion in the yard, ran out to look, and asked, "Mom, what's going on?"

Cui Mu hadn't come to her senses yet: "Oh my heavens."

Zhang Lianhua saw their front door shattered and lying in the yard, her mother-in-law sitting on the ground, and the sorted soybeans in the basin spilled all over: "Mom, stop screaming. What on earth happened?"

Shouted at by her, Cui Mu finally reacted: "Which heaven-sent brute kicked our door to pieces?"

She stopped wailing, got up from the ground, and was about to go outside to see what was happening.

But as soon as she stood up, she stepped on the soybeans on the ground, stumbled, and fell forward.

Zhang Lianhua reached out to pull her, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both tumbled forward together.

Two wails rang out simultaneously; Cui Mu's front tooth was knocked out, and the pain made her scream even louder.

Liu Chuxue used a key to unlock the door, entered the yard, and shut it immediately without a shred of guilt. She actually dared to curse her own child; she was truly spoiled rotten.

At this hour, those in the residential compound were at work or school, and most of those remaining were busy with housework. Moreover, before Liu Chuxue moved, she had used her spiritual power to confirm no one was paying attention to this side, so her conscience was perfectly clear.

Such a huge commotion naturally alerted quite a few people.

When everyone gathered before the Cui family's door, they saw Zhang Lianhua trying several times to get up and help her mother-in-law, but she couldn't stand steady herself, and finally collapsed right onto her mother-in-law, making Cui Mu's condition even worse.

Then Cui Mu let out a cry of shock and started cursing: "Zhang Lianhua, you bringer of bad luck! Do you want to crush me to death, you unfilial wretch?"

Hearing her mother-in-law's curses, Zhang Lianhua quickly used all four limbs to climb off her mother-in-law: "Mom, I'm sorry. It wasn't on purpose; I really couldn't stand steady."

Someone who simply couldn't bear to watch anymore went next door to borrow a broom, swept the soybeans together while walking forward, and prepared to help them: "Auntie, what's going on in the yard?"

Seeing someone enter, Cui Mu cried out, "Oh heavens, this is truly unbearable! I don't know which heaven-sent brute smashed our front door. The shock made me spill the soybeans I had just sorted. This is truly killing me."

Although everyone was annoyed by this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair, seeing them like this, they couldn't just stand by and watch. People entered the yard one after another and helped them get up.

Cui Mu's mouth was covered in blood, and she kept cursing. Seeing the door shattered into a pile on the ground, she stomped her feet in anger and cursed again.

Once everyone figured out what had happened, they were all incredulous: "Auntie Cui, are you telling the truth? But how is that possible?"

Everyone searched for a long time but couldn't find the object Cui Mu claimed had hit the door. Deep down, they didn't believe her words, yet the Cui family's door was indeed shattered all over the ground. Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke up.

Cui Wenbing, who had only just arrived at the training ground, was called back. Seeing the scene at home, he asked, "Mom, Lianhua, what happened here?"

Cui Mu spoke with a gap in her teeth, endured the pain in her mouth, and recounted the incident again: "Son, this matter cannot be let off like this."

Cui Wenbing had a terrible headache. He first sent the onlookers away: "Lianhua, clean up the yard first. I'll take Mom to the clinic. We'll discuss anything else when I get back."

What could Zhang Lianhua say? Ever since her mother-in-law arrived, the house had never been at peace, and she was now full of anger.

Looking again at the shattered door, she wiped away tears: "How can we go on living like this?"
