Wu Ping'an family actually has a headache too.
They would rather spend money to buy a wife than marry a young lady like He Meili.
It doesn't matter that they are not good-looking, but they have a very arrogant temperament, they don't know how to do any work, and they still want the best in everything. How can an ordinary family like them afford to support them?
They married a daughter-in-law firstly to have a son and carry on the family line, and secondly so that the family could have more workers and reduce the burden on the family. But now, they still have to serve an eldest lady, and they don't dare to do anything to her because her father is the village chief and he lives in a village. If she is unhappy and runs back to her parents' home, the village elder's wife, who dotes on her daughter, will definitely come to visit her.
But things have come to this, and they have no choice but to accept it.
Of course, they didn't dare to trouble Su Qiao.

This time He Jianjun did not lie. The next day, Chen Ligeng and his wife Guo Caixia quietly returned to the village with their three tall and strong brothers.
The first time they entered the village, Su Qiao got the news from 444.
He immediately called Big Treasure, who was painting outside, back home, and took him to sprinkle a lot of medicinal powder near the house.
In addition, she moved two large jars from the corner of the woodshed and placed them in the yard, waiting for the prey to take the bait.
As she expected, four figures quietly entered their yard at midnight that night.
But not long after entering the yard, before they had time to be happy, they suddenly heard a "hiss, hiss" sound.
Under the night light, nervous expressions appeared on all four faces.
They who often stay in the mountains can recognize this sound. It is the unique sound made by snakes.
"Ah! Snake!"
Sure enough, it didn't take long, using the night light, they quickly discovered snakes crawling out of the haystacks, under the walls, and under the stone slabs.
"Damn, I have one here too, and there are more than one."
"No, I have some here too."
"Run! This is a fucking snake den."
After a burst of screams, the four grown men all retreated back with numbness. However, at some point, the walls of the earthen courtyard were covered with various snakes.
That amount makes one's scalp numb and one's heart chilled.
Normally, one would be frightened just by seeing one or two, but now there were piles of them, and these snakes seemed to be attracted by something and kept approaching them.
What they didn't know was that when they climbed the wall and came in, they had already stepped on the powder Su Qiao had sprinkled outside.
This powder is fatally attractive to snakes and centipedes.
Fortunately, Su Qiao, in order not to kill people all at once, sprinkled some powder in the yard that was annoying to snakes and centipedes.
When they ran into the yard, they were pretty lucky. Everyone stepped on some of them, and their bodies got some of the unpleasant smell of snakes and centipedes.
Otherwise, they would have been swamped by snakes and centipedes by this time.
Of course, even so, the four grown men were so frightened that they became incontinent.
At this moment, the lights in the yard came on.
Su Qiao and Big Treasure also appeared in the corridor.
"Haha, look around you, is it still too late?"
Su Qiao was carrying a woman in red whose mouth was gagged with a dirty rag and tied tightly with ropes.
Behind her was Big Treasure, who was carrying a wooden stick and looking fierce.
As soon as the light came on, everything around him became clearer.
At this time, most of the yard was covered with snakes and giant centipedes.
