Strict Wife Of The '70s Manages The Household-Chapter 941
Lin Lan originally wanted to vent her anger for her Third Sister since being reported was not a trivial matter. She could let it go for the sake that they were family, but towards outsiders who reported the matter, she had to act fiercely or clearly show her dissatisfaction. That way, they wouldn’t dare to commit such acts again.
Therefore, she raised the issue again.
Old Man Tang looked at Lin Lan and said kindly, “My daughter(3), I really didn’t know about this. You see, our ancestors of the Tang family slaughtered pigs and farmed land for generations. We weave our own clothes for ourselves and know nothing about managing businesses, so why should we report your business?”
(T/N: Yes, Lin Lan is not his daughter, but terms that make you feel closer to another is only used between close relatives/friends who see you as family than your blood relation to them)
Even if he intended to appear kind, his naturally fierce expression made him look like someone with violent intentions. His face alone was capable of scaring children to tears.
Lin Lan could tell that he didn’t seem to be lying, “Then can I ask a favour from father-in-law to ask your daughter about it? We do have a witness to prove this.”
Old Man Tang turned his head to look at his eldest son, “Why do I not understand what she said? What’s going on? Do you know anything about it?”
Eldest Brother Tang knew a little bit of the incident at the time, but he didn’t dare to say anything about it. It was something that his mother and the youngest sister did, but it also involved his Second Brother’s family as well.

Second Brother Tang didn’t know a lot about it. Although it was his wife who did partake in it, there were many brothers and sisters-in-law in the family. Besides sleeping with his wife at night, he never went to join the women during the day.
Looking down one by one, Seventh Brother Tang drooped his arms and merely appeared to be in pain. Third Brother Tang, who was on the ground, didn’t seem to know anything either.
Lin Mei thought they were still pretending, so she mentioned the Old Lady Zhang, “She is said to be a cousin of one of your daughter-in-laws, so I believe that you know it yourself. Our team caught her and we have her confession in black and white, so I assure you that this is true. If you don’t believe it, you can ask her yourself.”
Old Man Tang looked at his sons, “Who is cousins with Old Lady Zhang? How come I didn’t know about this?”
Eldest Brother Tang glanced at the second son and hesitated for a moment, “Father, that’s the midwife who often comes to our house.”
Old Lady Zhang used to be a woman who loved to gossip. Not only could she deliver babies, but she could also perform shamanic dances to exorcise children and even act as a matchmaker. She was in front of the daughters and daughter-in-laws every day. Plus, she was knowledgeable about a lot of people and knew their affairs.
She and Old Lady Tang were old acquaintances as well. The marriages of the younger generations that occurred in her own family were mostly thanks to her contributions and fervent matchmaking.
Old Man Tang was not very clear about women’s affairs, but he still got to know some women who often came and went. Old Lady Zhang was called Cuigu, though she used to be called Cui Xiangu. After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, spiritual shamanism was no longer allowed and her superstitious business went underground.
