Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 1503: Where Are Madam’s Parents?

Editor: Henyee Translations

Fifth Grandpa Ding cleared his throat, casting a glance at Zhou Chong and the others. Assuming an air of dignity, he inquired, “Where’s Ding Xiang? Where is she now? Why hasn’t she returned home after such a long time? Doesn’t she realize her family would worry about her? How absurd!”

Fifth Grandma Ding thought of her second son and daughter-in-law, who had turned unfilial because of Ding Xiang, and a surge of resentment flooded her heart. Sneering, she added spitefully, “Exactly! This unfilial girl, she—”

“Alright, alright!” Fifth Grandpa Ding interjected, speaking vaguely, “Let’s not dwell on the past. Isn’t the child more sensible now and knows how to be filial? When she returns, we can have a cordial conversation and admit our mistakes. You’re not allowed to speak ill of her.”

Fifth Grandma Ding snorted, but she had resolved to torment Ding Xiang and teach her a lesson. She intended to control her and make her listen.

Before Zhou Chong, Qingyun, and the others arrived, they had heard their madam casually mention the situation at home with a smile, preparing them mentally.

...
At that time, hearing this, they couldn’t help but feel indignant and angry for their madam.

Now, their fury intensified.

Their madam was an exceptional individual. They hadn’t expected her to endure such humiliation at home! This wretched old woman’s family were truly leeches!

A despicable, malicious, and shameless bunch of leeches!

They sought the benefits of their madam but still scolded and humiliated her like this. Truly shameless.

Fifth Grandpa Ding gestured dismissively. “Alright, you guys hop onto the carriage and follow me home. We’ll discuss this further once we’re home!”

Zhou Chong and the others sneered inwardly. Home, my foot! What does your family have to do with our Madam?

These people were Madam’s blood relatives. Yet, they exhibited no concern for her. The moment they spoke, it was criticism and scorn. How shameless!

Zhou Chong deliberately gazed at Fifth Grandpa Ding with feigned confusion and smiled. “Oh dear, who is this old man of yours? Our Madam has already clarified things for us. Her father isn’t that old.”

Qingyun chimed in with mockery, “Madam mentioned that her parents care for her and dote on her, but I didn’t hear you express any concern for our Madam. Who are you? Are you a pair of impostors?!”

The villagers erupted into laughter.

Many spectators relished the spectacle. Those with a bit more discernment likely understood that it wouldn’t be so simple for Fifth Grandpa Ding and Fifth Grandma Ding to acquire these items today. Even if Ding Xiang had sent someone back, it wasn’t to bestow them with benefits but likely to exact revenge.

Indeed, everyone recalled how Ding Xiang was forced to leave by them. The girl couldn’t endure it any longer and was frightening when she exploded. How could she suddenly become good-tempered again?

“What did you say! Who are you calling impostors! Damn girl, believe it or not, I’ll sell you!” Fifth Grandma Ding’s finger nearly poked at Qingyun’s face.

Qingyun recoiled, slapping her hand away. “Show some manners!”

Ding Dalang, Ding Sanlang, and their daughter-in-law grew so furious that they began hurling curses at Ding Xiang.

“What ‘damn girl’!” and “unfilial!” None of their words were polite.

“Shut up!” Fifth Grandpa Ding’s face reddened. He halted his family, furrowing his brow. “You’re servants. How can you speak in such a manner? It’s not appropriate to air grievances in public. Let’s go home first! I am Ding Xiang’s biological grandfather. Everyone in the village knows! Let’s go!”

Zhou Chong sneered. “Where are our Madam’s parents?”
